    Summary

    “It’s, like, so weird,” March whines. “He’s like our dad, you know?”

    Dan Heng wrinkles his nose. “You have some funny thoughts,” he tells her.

    March turns towards Stelle. “You get it, right?!” She demands. “Mr. Yang’s our father figure on the Express!”

    Stelle considers both of them. Seemingly satisfied after a moment, she says, nodding sagely, “Our daddy.”

    Or, a few moments aboard the Express about Sunday and Welt.

    Summary

    Ratio nods. “Good,” he says. “No heavy machinery or other potentially dangerous tasks. I wouldn’t recommend travel, either. Set alarms to remind yourself to eat, if necessary.”

    “Just stay at home and do nothing,” Aventurine says dully. “Sounds like a great way to fix Wanting To Do Nothing disease.”

    (Those who step into the shadows of IX become Self-Annihilators, drained of the will to live and desiring only their own death. After Penacony, Aventurine's not feeling so hot.)

    Summary

    Aventurine isn't smiling. It's strange on him. The way he looks kind of serious, kind of lost. His eyes are unsettling. Veritas has always thought so.

    They look at each other. Aventurine wets his lips. "What are we doing, Veritas?"

    "It's curious," Veritas says, "isn't it?"

    Experiments sometimes lead to anomalies. Case in point: Aventurine cares about Veritas Ratio.

    Summary

    It wasn't anything special - just a selfie Caelus had sent to Aventurine to thank him for the money. Except Aventurine asks for more, in far more compromising positions that push the limits of friendly boundaries. And since Caelus is weak to the amount of zeroes that he sees, he agrees.

    Summary

    “Ah, that.” Ratio nods, as if whatever the hell the pastry cat thing was…well, normal. It left Aventurine wondering if strange mutations running around were a common occurrence on the space station. The doctor gestures in the thing’s general direction. “That is one of Ruan Mei, member number 81 of the genius society’s creation. It’s simply a byproduct of one of her experiments and is harmless.”

    The cat pastry's gelatinous body jiggles as it looks up at Aventurine, and blinks slowly. It warbles, and he has no idea what that sound was supposed to mean. “I’ll have someone pick it up in the meanwhile, and —“

    ”It can stay here.” Aventurine blurts before he can stop himself.

    In which one of Ruan Mei’s cat pastries makes its way into Aventurine’s room, and he ends up caring for it with the help of a certain doctor.
