Summary
Eight doctorates in your 30s? Common sense dictates that's impossible.
And yet there he was, a genius among the mundane. The key to this astonishing success was his first invention and the most guarded secret — a machine that allowed him to step above human constraints. He never shared with anyone that he'd already seen, and rejected, Nous.
This is a story about how one day, a heartstopping meeting shook Dr. Ratio's entire perfectly optimized life.

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
“You might want to review your contract,” Aventurine said, with an easy smugness that evoked pure Schadenfreude. “Funny little thing called a spontaneous travel contingency clause. Up to 80 hours of on-site consulting—paid, of course—if the asset liquidation specialist deems it economically valuable.”
When the IPC’s newest Stoneheart drags Ratio along on a debt case seemingly for no reason other than his own amusement, Ratio wastes no time adding Aventurine to the list of people he’d strangle if it wouldn’t jeopardize his career. Upon their arrival on Xin-41, however, Ratio begrudgingly deems his contempt for the planet’s intellectual oligarchy stronger than his contempt for his insufferable colleague. Even more begrudgingly, he finds himself drawn in by the web of mysteries lurking not just within the Slinkans’ ivory tower, but within the depths of Aventurine’s dangerously inscrutable mind.
Through deadly equations, volatile spices, and the ‘warning’ of a brutalized corpse left out under the summer sun, Xin-41’s insolvency reveals itself as something deeply sinister, with threads tying back to the early days of the IPC... and to one of the Intelligentsia Guild’s most infamous scholars.

Summary
“How about… if you get a bullseye in the next five shots, I’ll give you a reward for your efforts.”
It shocked him—the way the word reward made something inside of him light up. Was it because the idea of receiving one made him intrinsically yearn for it? Or was it because Aventurine was the one offering?
“And what kind of ‘reward’ do you have in mind?” he asked carefully.
“Curious, are you?” Aventurine leaned in, eyes forming little crescents. “I suppose you’ll have to win to find out.”
or
Aventurine teaches Ratio how to shoot a gun, and the two of them discover Ratio has a bit of a praise kink.
