    Summary

    But with his legs sandwiched between Ratio’s thick thighs, resting his head on the soft pillow of his wet chest, he remembers why he makes an exception for baths. Ratio's tub is enormous, there's plenty of room for both of them. They plaster themselves together regardless, just to keep skin on skin. His ass is sticking out of the water, but the excessive bubbles cover it, keeping him warm. One of Ratio’s arms slides around his shoulders, tracing wet patterns onto slick skin. The other hangs over the edge of the bath, dripping water onto the floor

    Ratio and Aventurine, aftercare, a bathtub, and domesticity that Aventurine still isn't sure he's happy to be a part of.

    Summary

    "You should be careful,” Aventurine murmurs lowly. A warning. A threat. “The IPC doesn't take kindly to other people touching its property.”

    OR: The IPC sees all and knows all, and Aventurine knows that sooner or later this Thing between him and Ratio will be ammunition in a loaded gun.

    Summary

    This isn’t the first time Ratio has walked in on Aventurine and a scene of violence. He acts unashamed of the aftermath, but he never lets anyone see him in the process. One is a flaunt of his own prowess: Look at me, look what I’m capable of, look what I survived again. The other is a kind of honesty he’s not sure Aventurine is capable of.

    Summary

    “Ah,” Aventurine said, rubbing his arm, “so that’s why they had us refresh all our vaccinations before this trip. We’re not in any danger of falling ill, are we? I’d hate to ruin such a nice vacation.”

    “It’s unclear,” Ratio said. Aventurine side-eyed him, looking less relaxed now. But if those folktales had any merit to them at all, “more likely, no.”

    They were approaching the town now, inclined turquoise shingles peeking out over the edges of the treeline. It seemed like every building here was overgrown with flowers—flowers burst from the vines on white stucco walls, bouquets hung from the bucket-laden stalls at every corner, and almost all the windows were decorated with boxes abundant with blooms.

    “It’s beautiful, but,” he grimaced, voicing Ratio’s thoughts aloud, “a little morbid, isn’t it?”

    To a scientist, mythology and fairy tales are simply veneers that warp and obscure the truth. And to a doctor, diseases are problems that can be solved with logic rather than love.

    Summary

    “This is childish.”

    “I’m just asking if you want a turn on the pool float.”

    “No, I do not want a turn on the pool float!” Ratio groans, exasperation spilling forth. “This is entirely unnecessary and immature—”

    “Fine,” Aventurine interjects, effectively pausing the doctor’s tirade. “Then don’t. But you should know that the duck will be saddened by your rejection.” He throws Ratio a knowing glance. “As will I.”

    Ratio exhales a weary breath, lifting a hand to signal a pause. He takes a moment to steady himself before coming to a decision.

    “You are unbelievable,” he mutters beneath his breath. “Fine. I will try the damned thing.”

    Following their tribulations in Penacony, Aventurine and Ratio receive an unexpected gift from Jade—a much-needed vacation at at the most exclusive resort in the cosmos.

    With only each other, the sun, and the beach for company, it's a stark contrast to their everyday lives. As they struggle with the complicated shift in their relationship, a disappearance at the hotel, and the constant battle to keep their emotions in check, it all threatens to unravel completely.
