    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

    “You have better things to do.”

    “Not according to the Company, I don’t.” Aventurine smiles and takes off his sunglasses. He reaches over and goes in for the kill, lifting the bottom of Ratio’s chin to meet his eyes. No one ever resists the eyes. “You have no idea how special you are—in that I was sent to retrieve you.”

    Ratio says nothing. He doesn’t really move.

    In which the IPC just can’t seem to convince Veritas Ratio to join the Intelligentsia Guild, so they deploy Aventurine to a tiny university city-state, where he must charm the good doctor into their fold.
