Summary
“Hiya!” The little girl beams back at him, giving him a wave. He waves back and, feeling awkward looking up at them both, clambers to his feet.
She really looks a lot like Veritas—the same hair, the same eyes—the only difference being her much rounder features. She looks around seven or eight, which sticks out to him, considering Veritas doesn’t seem to be any older than his mid-twenties.
“Didn’t expect to see you here,” Veritas says, looking a little suspicious.
“I, uh, yeah, I live here.” Aventurine laughs nervously, gesturing to the door he’d been leaning against.

Summary
“Math?” And a published academic journal, at that?
“Yes.” Ratio returns the book to his bag, carrying on, but Aventurine’s stuck on the fact that this is apparently what he does in his free time outside of composing music.
“…I thought you were a pianist.”
“I am a pianist.”
“But– math?” Even Aventurine doesn’t spend that much time thinking about math, and he spends twelve hours a day staring at financial models.
“Does it not occur to you that it's possible to have more than one interest?”
Aventurine lives the same week on repeat: eighty hours of his soul-sucking high finance job, then two nights of dancing off the stress to the beat of his favorite anonymous DJ. His move into a luxury apartment building brings him next door to Ratio, an esteemed classical composer with a love for piano. Eager to make a good impression, Aventurine keeps his clubbing habit under wraps — but he’s not the only one hiding secrets under strobe lights.

Summary
So, Aventurine hadn’t intended to make a habit of this.
Don’t get him wrong, he’d thought about it at great length. He’d extensively searched up ‘how to get a cat to feign a limp’, just so he could treat himself to another twenty minutes with that handsome doctor again. But alas, cats will be cats.or
Aventurine learns that the greatest risks yield the sweetest rewards when his soft-spot for stray cats leads him straight towards the stoic, no-nonsense—and surprisingly kind—veterinarian, Dr. Ratio.- Language:

Summary
There is an inexplicable draw to Veritas Ratio, even as little as Aventurine actually knows about him, something beyond whatever surface level attraction there was to begin with. It’s not so ridiculous—Veritas is attractive, seems to be interested in Aventurine, and inexplicably was able to drop everything to run his mothers’ florist business for three months. That kind of person is fascinating, objectively, and unique things have always caught Aventurine’s attention.
He can’t remember the last time he looked at someone and thought, I think I want to date you, but that’s enough of an anomaly to make Veritas someone worth learning more about.
♡
or, ratio helps run his moms' flower shop, and aventurine winds up buying a lot of flowers.
