Summary
"Veritas," he whispers.
"Yes, love?"
Oh, that's—he's never called Aventurine that before. Not like that. Never so softly. The endearment lands with enough force to propel him forward before doubt can catch up.
“When you get back,” Aventurine ventures, finally letting the thought leave the safety of his head, “do you want to move in?”
A year in the life of Aventurine and Veritas—and the nerve-wracking ordeal of figuring out the whole relationship thing.

Summary
“Don’t,” Ratio says, finally breaking the silence. Just a single word, uttered in a low voice. “You know nothing of what I want.”
“Oh, I think I do,” Feinman shoots back with a smirk. “I remembered just now that I heard an interesting rumor about you. Something about you and your obsession with a certain…IPC executive?”
Aventurine’s stomach flips, the words clattering around his skull like dice in a tin cup.
Or in which Aventurine goes undercover at a brothel and accidentally finds Ratio there.

Summary
He's sure Madam Jade will give him hell tomorrow for not mingling enough, for not trying to expand his new list of contacts and potential clients. But all of the other Stonehearts are here too, so Aventurine can only assume they've gotten to everyone first.
Therefore, he has no chance to steal work from them, and he doesn't care enough to try.
Or:
