my own lore of dr ratio since this writing before his lore %_% You can make this ao3 or somewhere, but do credit me :3 (exp ; og story by Chernika )

"Do not turn around." Ratio doesn't need to be told twice, for he already knows how the myth goes. He has braved the sea of Nihility once, and he'll do it again. Except, this time he has company... or so he hopes. "I trust that you are there, Aventurine." Silence. Or: Ratio is Orpheus, leading his dearest Eurydice out of the sea of Nihility after he's gambled his life away.

Ratio finally got to college to start a new chapter of his life. He was a smart man, and he knows it. In his prime, his college roommate, Aveturine, was the opposite of him, relying on his luck and being a gambler. Who knows what their relationship will be in the future?

Aventurine hums. "Calling you 'detective' seems a little too plain. How about..." The phantom thief chuckles under his breath before slowly holding one hand out. Against Veritas's better judgment, he puts his hand in his. Gloved fingers clasp around him gently, giving him ample time and opportunity to pull back. He doesn't. Instead, he thinks about how the fabric is so thin that he can feel a bit of warmth through them. Instead, he thinks about how those fingers are a little smaller than his, slender with a delicate touch. Instead, he thinks about the way Aventurine lifts his hand up to his face and presses it to his mask. Veritas's knuckles brush over right where his lips would've been. "My darling detective..." Or: Detective Veritas Ratio is assigned to Phantom Thief Aventurine's case. It turns out he has a penchant for stealing more than just expensive goods.
