Summary
One year after evading a grim demise, Goro Akechi's managed to find his footing in a post-Thieves world... kind of. Aside from the use of sarcasm and the surprisingly sage advice of a self-help book, Goro's still not sure of the right way to handle the weight of his regrets, his obligation to the world at large, or the matter of his... feelings... for Ren Amamiya. But sometimes it's not about fate, angel numbers, or the caprices of false gods. Sometimes, it's just that the only path leads forward— so, with the chance you're given, you steal ahead.

Summary
Maybe it would have been better if he'd never been loved — if his mother had abandoned him, if he'd never had a sister, if the Goddess hadn't gifted him her beautiful curse. Perhaps if he didn't know how it felt, he wouldn't long so pathetically for what was sure to hurt him, like a mongrel dog begging for scraps of poisoned food.

Summary
Revealing your hand to a genius is a rookie mistake that Aventurine makes during a little dentist appointment between friends. And after that, what's a few phone calls and some souvenirs express-shipped from Xin-41 in comparison? Maybe a path to something resembling mutual understanding, maybe the first ever medical cure for a martyr complex, maybe nothing at all.

The Downsides of Objectivity by profligate

Summary
It began with the gifts.
Ratio was aware this was a tactic Aventurine employed with all his professional relationships. On his rare visits to Pier Point, Ratio had occasionally caught sight of Aventurine delivering wrapped packages from desk to desk. When they had begun to work together, he had received some expensive, trendy knick knacks himself that he had been all too happy to misplace.
From then on, he noticed Aventurine’s habit more often: the way he’d take the time to gather up those gifts on long shopping trips, as well as his preference for opening negotiations with a few lavish presents in a show of both goodwill and power.
And he noticed the way that his occasional, persistent gifts to Ratio increased in specificity.
Aventurine is clearly infatuated with him. Naturally, Ratio has a duty to nip this nonsense in the bud.
Unsurprisingly, Ratio has the hots for him. For the Doctor’s sake, Aventurine will have to shut him down.
