    Summary

    There is a dragon in a nearby cave who is said to hoard knowledge instead of jewels, to thrive on the thrill of learning rather than that of the hunt, to believe that humans—at their core—are more than just food to be eaten. The village by that cave reveres this dragon, even though they’ve never seen them. Isn’t that even more of a reason to worship them? For the fact that they seem to be so completely disinterested in their people? This little village had attempted to sacrifice someone to their dragon protector once, and the sacrifice was promptly returned with a note saying, “Please do not do this.” They do not fear their dragon, for they have heard nothing about him to fear; no, they respect him, for the dragon respects them in return.

    On a completely coincidental and unrelated note, there is also a scholar, who seems to only visit the village once in a blue moon and has been doing so for as long as any of them can remember.

    Aventurine wants to fuck him so badly.

    or, aventurine accidentally acquires a dragon boyfriend. what happens next probably won't shock you.

    Summary

    Aventurine will blame it on the alcohol and loneliness.
    Ratio will blame it on frustration and sleep deprivation.

    Neither of them expected to come together like this. Walls so carefully built up skillfully over the years. Perfected in craftsmanship, only end up crumbling, and falling. Until they all become ruins and the sky can be clearly seen once again.

     

    or in which Aventurine shows up drunk at Ratio's home and indulges his fantasies with Ratio's statues. And Ratio, watches from his work office through his security system. The outcome of these two events turns out to be quite interesting,

    Summary

    On a mission gone wrong, Aventurine and Ratio must escape the building they’re trapped in, and decide to create an… unconventional diversion to distract the enemy.

    It goes surprisingly well.

    If the part where Ratio questions Aventurine’s feelings for him is ignored.

    Summary

    “Aventurine? What brings you to call me at this hour?” Her tone was the same as always — smug, confident, and a little condescending. “A lady needs her beauty sleep, you know.”

    “Don’t worry, I wouldn’t dream of keeping you held up for long.” He toweled off his face, taking with it excess product from his skin routine. “I was just wondering if you could send me the doctor’s contact info. He ghosted me at the eleventh hour!”

    Jade was silent on the other line for a few moments. “You’ll have to be a bit more specific. Which doctor are you talking about?”

    Aventurine paused. “Uh… who else? You know, Ratio?”

    “Who is ‘Ratio’ supposed to be, exactly?”

    The toothbrush clattered as it fell into the sink, slipping entirely from Aventurine’s grasp.

    That was when he knew something was wrong.

    Summary

    Aventurine wants a kid, and has no qualms about being a single parent. Still, it would be dangerous to let just any random Alpha father his child, so at Jade's suggestion, he joins an IPC matchmaking program to ensure the best genetic match to have the healthiest, happiest kiddo possible.

    The only problem is that apparently, his best match in the universe is Veritas Ratio.

    Who is also his ex.

    Summary

    “How banal. Is there no conundrum to stimulate my brain?”

    The man he’s sharing a bath with smiles at his lamentation, throughly amused by his commentary. Aventurine leans back against the bathtub, the tips of his hair getting wet. “Professor, the bath salt is almost past its efficient period. Might I ask what type you wish to use next?”

    He props up one of his legs, stretching the other now covered with rose petals, to rub his foot along the side of Ratio’s chest, down to his waist and then swiftly up and down his thigh.

    “Not bad,” Ratio says, chuckling. “You brought up a question worthy of thinking about.”

    “Hm? Need further incentive, Professor?” Aventurine teases. “I can be plenty stimulating.”

    -
    or, Ratio’s very intellectually stimulating dream.

    Summary

    “I can smell you, succubus.”

    “That isn’t as endearing as you think it is,” Aventurine laughs, his chest warm in ways it shouldn’t be. “Do you always talk this much when you’re feeding?"

    “No.” Aventurine doesn’t press for answers. Instead, he closes his eyes and cants his head back further. “Should you feel any discomfort, do let me know.”

    For a vampire, he’s awfully considerate, he thinks before his thoughts are unceremoniously cut off by fangs piercing the unmarred skin of his neck.

    A vampire and a succubus strike a mutually beneficial deal. It's never that simple. Or, sex demon Aventurine finds comfort in the dusty home of a vampire Professor.

    Summary

    Ratio is an incubus, which is a fact that he usually prefers to keep under wraps when he can.

    Still, he can't resist the irony of attending Halloween parties as his true self when the opportunity arises, making him a surprisingly regular presence at the IPC's seasonal get-togethers. The only problem is that this time, he's gone far too long without feeding, and Aventurine may be on track to discovering his secret...

    Summary

    Aventurine was serious about courting his dear doctor, Veritas Ratio who was an owl hybrid. His dazzling, flamboyant attempts at courting only left Ratio feeling utterly baffled and slightly insulted; while one was trying to express his affection, the other kept thinking he was being subtly mocked.

    Giving a feather meant two things. For Aventurine, wanting to court someone. For Ratio? Wishing someone ill.
    Stones, things to decorate home. For the blond, showing affection. For the doctor? You have no taste. Your nest is unworthy. I pity whoever ends up mating with you, because they’re doomed to a life of disappointment.
    But that wasn't the end of it.
    From flirting to getting slapped in the face by Aventurine's tail, Ratio was almost sure he did something wrong to make the blond hate him. While Aventurine was busy thinking the doctor was plotting for his downfall, rejecting all his courting rituals.

    Summary

    Famed treasure hunter and pilot, Aventurine, crash-lands on a deserted island. Injured and exhausted, he only survives the ordeal thanks to the aid of the island's only resident: an oddly eloquent sea monster calling himself 'Veritas'.

    In exchange, Veritas insists that Aventurine becomes his mate. Curious and quickly growing fond of this creature, Aventurine agrees to the proposal.

    Except, does he really know what he's getting into...?

    Summary

    "Remember you can always make me stop if it gets uncomfortable," the doctor whispered when he regained his ability to speak, anger at Kakavasha's abusers mixed with an intense need to take care of him and wash away the memories of abuse with new, more powerful ones of love and gentleness. The gambler may not be accustomed to kindness, but they could get there, slowly. They had all the time in the world.

     

    Or: When all is said and done on Penacony, Aventurine comes back from the dead for his last, big gamble on dr. Ratio's feelings.

    Summary

    But then the back of his hand hits Ratio’s.

    It’s an accident—it always is when it’s the two of them—but the result is the same.

     


    … his hands are surprisingly soft.

     

    It is not an insult or crass comment. It is not something superficial or sharp. It isn’t even belittling. No, the words that sound just like Ratio that flutter around in his head are so agonizingly gentle that Aventurine swears he feels dizzy from it.

    Or, Aventurine temporarily acquires the ability to not only read the minds of the cat cakes, but also those around him. Ratio's thoughts are far kinder than Aventurine had anticipated. It may just be the impetus they need to finally clear the air.

    “Well, if you haven’t noticed, that little stunt you pulled likely didn’t leave the best impression,” Topaz muttered, crossing her arms, “If that crush of yours decides to break ties with the IPC because of you, we both know it’s your head on the chopping block."

    She didn’t mean to call Dr. Ratio his crush, the word just came tumbling out in the midst of her ireful rant, but her eyes widened when the faint tint of red against the other’s face expanded into a full on blush.

    “My crush?” Aventurine repeated, his tone was teasing but she noticed the way it slightly shook. He put his shades over his eyes before turning back to her, “Thought you were more mature than to use such elementary terms, let alone believe in love, but you prove me wrong, Miss Topaz.”

    OR

    Topaz had always felt apprehensive around Aventurine, but after getting a glimpse of his true demeanor underneath that self-confident exterior of his, she starts to understand him better. Thus, begins her secret mission to get him and the unknowing catalyst of their friendship, Dr. Ratio, together.

    “Care to explain, gambler?” Ratio finally broke his silence, all but spitting the words. “You agreed to speak with me and let me tend to you during your convalescence, and yet here I find you moments before our agreed-upon time receiving sexual favors from a man wanted ten times over by your own organization while you are supposed to be in hiding. Is this your clever idea of a joke?”

    Aventurine shook his head dazedly, choking down a gasp as Boothill’s tongue traced where the gun penetrated him.

    “You’re early,” he said with all the authority and coherence he could muster, trying to override the deep shame at being caught in such a flagrant display of debauchery. “I should make you sit there and wait until I’m finished.”

    Boothill’s after intel, Aventurine wants some unconventional stress relief, and Ratio isn’t happy that his worst patient has a loaded gun wedged somewhere loaded guns aren’t meant to go…

    A few more messages rolled in and Aventurine realized that he must be sick in the head, or rather, he realized he was sicker in the head than he was already aware of, because even though all the messages were berating him for creating a fake account, fans trying to defend his honor, he was delighted at having any type of conversation that wasn’t an interview or being read off a script.
    He’d nearly given up, resigning himself to being an old cat man (though his cats were currently nowhere to be found, most likely getting into mischief in his kitchen), when his phone lit up again.
