    Summary

    “What happened, did Ratio find his successor as Governor lacking?”

    “No,” Jade said. “Well, I’m sure that’s a thought that also has him worried, but what concerns us is different.”

    Aventurine picked up one of the silver coins that Jade had left on her desk. He rolled it over his knuckles, then flipped it in the air. “Then, what is it that, supposedly, concerns me too,” — he caught the coin, rolling it again between his fingers — “considering you’re telling me?”

    “Oh, child,” Jade’s eyes glistened with untold amusement. “Someone tried to assassinate him.”

    -
    or, someone is after Ratio’s life, and Aventurine is ready to do anything to make sure Ratio stays safe.

    Summary

    The gambler reeks of alcohol; it won't serve any purpose to cater to the whims of someone who is so evidently impaired.

    Kakavasha opens his mouth.

    “…I wish to meet ▇▇▇.”

    And then—

    Glass seems to break, crack, shatter all across. It shows on Lapis’ face—something abrupt and vaguely familiar.

    The hand on Kakavasha’s cheek slackens, lowers, falls. It falls, but it doesn’t tumble fully out of reach—the doctor’s fingers, instinctively tightening around Lapis’ wrist.

    “…I see.”

    Lapis looks at him—in hurt, in regret, in self-loathing, in too many things Kakavasha sees in his own reflection.

    “…My apologies,” a breath; something tender, “I don’t know where he is either.”

    …Oh.

    “Oh,” Kakavasha says.

    ——

    Or, scripts are swapped and roles are reversed. It changes nothing and everything.

    Summary

    Yes, Ratio remembers that first day: the Omega had introduced himself sweetly, words nearly a lilt. Aventurine. He had said his name was Aventurine, named after the precious stone, supposedly.

    Now, months later with a dagger pressed to his throat, back against the floor and the window shattered, Ratio should have seen this coming, too.

    Prince Ratio, as part of a trade negotiation with the IPC, is gifted a prize Omega who seems dead-set on seducing the crowned Prince. Ratio, not one for barbaric traditions such as treating Omega as chattel, resists any and all seduction attempts: Aventurine is not his mate, after all.

    Summary

    Apocalypse: Star Rail might be the worst game Dr. Veritas Ratio has ever played. In what world is murdering half the known universe for no reason even remotely reasonable? What kind of game kills off its most compelling characters just for shock value?

    Also, why is he now in the game — and as a damn NPC, out of all things?


    【 Activation Code: “Moronic developers, moronic game.” It is our sincere wish that during your time, you can fulfill your desires and, in accordance with your wish, transform a piece of moronic work into a magnificent, high-quality, first-rate classic. Bound Role: Unnamed male NPC of the Veritas Prime star system, age 0. 】

    【 Congratulations! Welcome to Apocalypse: Star Rail, version ██! 】


    Well. If these idiot developers can’t take constructive criticism, Veritas might as well construct the criticism himself… by forcibly inserting himself into a plot where he’s never existed.
