What do you think you're doing, damn gambler. Surely you are not unaware of the concept of phishing.

[stonehearts]

Are you telling me the esteemed Doctor Veritas Ratio would have picked anything as simple as those for his security question?

[curingidiocy]

That does not change the fact that you are giving out information needlessly, and to someone who is attempting a scam. Nor have you asked for my consent in dispensing this information.

[stonehearts]

Relax, Doc. I've seen your personnel file, you know.

( so he knows that some of the answers aren't going to be lucky guesses and are, in fact, wildly off base. and the rest he figures are just a matter of time before someone finds out.

except for maybe the apple pie. )

[curingidiocy]

Oh? I was unaware knowledge of my preference in desserts was written in a publicly accessible file.

[ And not something he chose to share with Aventurine in confidence. Not that he has any shame in it. He's just a very private person in general. ]

[stonehearts]

The dessert is what you're stuck on?

( huh. )

Alright, alright. No more disclosing the juiciest of secrets of Doctor Ratio. We can't risk you forming a fan club here, especially one armed with the knowledge of your favorite food. They'd be unstoppable.

[curingidiocy]

It does not surprise me that you've somehow learned where my primary residence is, for what little time I spend there.

[ Perhaps Aventurine doesn't realize the significance of Ratio sharing such trivial facts about himself. Just like the gambler, there are aspects of himself that he purposefully shows to the world, and some that he keeps quiet on.

In reality, Aventurine is the only person who knows about his peculiar propensity for apple pies, and that he prefers them tart, and as thin slices consumed in at most three bites. ]

If it means they'd be more willing to dispense information, then let them do as they please.

[stonehearts]

That was in your file.

( and he keeps the details to himself, because he does cherish that concession from ratio. like he shared what his favorite food was -- springbird paprikash, but instead of with egg noodles he preferred it with flatbread. )

I'll keep that fact in mind. Why, I'll become the president of it myself if need be.

[curingidiocy]

[ Ratio doesn't quite remember that little tidbit about Aventurine, but only because he's already noted it down in a private notebook where he usually keeps morsels of information that are worth remembering but likely to slip from his mind. Though he has excellent memory, he is also someone who has a great many things occupying it at all times.

(No one needs to know that he has several pages in that notebook dedicated to Aventurine.) ]

Cease that train of thought immediately. I refuse to associate with any member of this hypothetical fan club.

[stonehearts]

Haha! Doctor, please-- I'd make sure it was only full of the most devoted fans. We'd gather around, reading a copy of that book about you that you hate and compare and contrast to the real you.

[curingidiocy]

I said cease that thought immediately. What part of my words did you not understand, you fool?? Do you intend on joining the ranks of the idiots whose faces I do not wish to see?

[ He's threatening to wear his plaster bust around Aventurine and never show his face again. As if that's a legitimate threat... ]

[stonehearts]

Alright, alright, I've had my fun. There's no need for you to put away that handsome face of yours so soon after arriving.

[lovebombing]

Wait. Are you answering for someone else there

[stonehearts]

Hmm? No, of course not.

[lovebombing]

So you're a doctor?

[stonehearts]

I didn't know nicknames were required to be based in fact.

[lovebombing]

True but usually there's a reason for them! Got me curious

[stonehearts]

Hmm, in that case...

I've never set foot in a school in my entire life. Maybe that's why they call me 'doctor'.

[lovebombing]

That


Doesn't make sense don't doctors need to go to school?

[stonehearts]

I never claimed it was a good nickname, did I? Don't worry, friend, I don't let slights against my lack of education stick to me.

[lovebombing]

You deserve a better nickname. Just my opinion

[stonehearts]

( a normal person should feel maybe, just maybe, a twinge of guilt at that. aventurine doesn't. )

You really are too kind, friend. There's been worse leveled at me, and some of it even true! Someone recently was fond of 'peacock' -- I'd have liked it more if it wasn't coming from her.

[lovebombing]

Peacock?

That's a fun one though! I guess she's an enemy of yours?

[stonehearts]

And far more fitting!

An enemy? No, just a Fool who thinks she has every answer and terrible timing.
