Nothing unusual...just Aventurine in a Ratio's teapot
Dr. Ratio
it’s important to clarify that this is his younger version—around twenty years old. and older one, somewhere between thirty and forty.
(i guess i’ll never settle on a consistent style sigh)
Headcanon on Dr. Ratio’s Past
I’ve been thinking about eventually writing out Dr. Ratio’s full story in a literary way, but here’s a sketch of what’s on my mind right now.
Between earning one doctorate and the next, Ratio was the antithesis of a role model—or rather, an example of what not to do. He had casual sex relationships, but always protected himself. He drank, but never to the point of losing control. He didn’t smoke or do drugs, but he wouldn’t hesitate to inject himself with some newly developed serum.
He’d read the works of great philosophers for his PhD in philosophy, and when he got tired,he rolled up on a chair to the table to dissect a rat for his future doctoral dissertation in medicine. If he grew weary of that, he’d step away to a chalkboard covered in equations, crunching numbers for his PhD in physics—or, if that didn’t work, he’d switch to solving problems for his doctorate in mathematics.
This was a man caught between absolute self-improvement and absolute self-destruction.
What drove him to this? I’ll tell you, but maybe… a little later.

tw image of death
I’m seriously wondering if it makes sense to create more content for this concept. There are a couple of nuances I’d like to highlight(what awaited him on the ocean floor, how he became the kraken, and how Aventurine reacted upon witnessing the execution of Dr Ratio), but I’m more curious—what questions would you like to see answered about my storyline?
pt.1 pt.2
Pirate AU! pt. 2
Ratio – the terror of pirates made flesh. Something drives him to sink overloaded ships.
Aventurine – henceforth a legendary pirate. A ghost pirate, killed by a terrible catastrophe, slain by the kraken. Slain by Ratio.
However, this was his plan all along: to gain enough power beyond the threshold of death to capture this kraken.

Pirate AU!
Still undecided on what role to give Ratio—an esteemed doctor taken hostage, the captain, or a kraken/octopus-mermaid? Each of these would lead to a different storyline and dynamic, but I can’t decide which one to invest my time and energy in.
Reverse AU Dr. Ratio and Aventurine p.5
He’s whispering to the girl sitting on his lap, purring in her ear, and she laughs.
In front of them, on their knees, are the subordinates who have failed. He asks her:
— How should those who disobeyed the order be punished?
Feeling the power in her hands from a man like him, she replies playfully:
— Kill them!
He smirks, the men sweat and tremble. Amethyst purrs in her ear, asking if she will obey his orders. She smiles with glossy lips and nods. She touches his cheek with lipstick to reach ear, caressing the taut fabric across his crotch with her sharp-nailed fingers and whispers:
— Every single one.
Taking her firmly under the thigh, he kisses her neck, under her jaw. He slips his hand behind back and pulls out a gun. A vintage revolver. He thrusts it straight into her adorable doll hands.
Amethyst breathes into her cheek, speaking and kissing her skin with his words:
— Then kill them.
He hugs her tightly by the thigh, causing her to bend under his fingers like one of the famous statues. He looks at her as if a prayer is written on her cheek.
— That’s an order.

Boss Form of Ratio
Kakawasha understandably considers him a peacock, just like many of you probably do. But in truth, he’s much closer to owls, as he is in the canon.
His stone transforms his body far more dramatically than Aventurine’s did. Amethyst stretches into a humanoid bird form (slightly smaller than the Sunday!boss), like something from ancient mythical epics. He wears lavish feathered sleeves, a cloak of golden wings, and shoulder armor reminiscent of an owl’s plumage. Around his neck, feathers form a majestic collar, framing his head-marble-bust. His body is gray-blue, like marble, or like skin in the rigor mortis stage. Then there is the clothing meant to cover that which couldn’t be shown in the game...
Clawed hands. Elongated legs with twisted feet.
my pride
His abilities during the boss fight:
Talons of Fate – Sweeping, eager strikes with his clawed hands. Deals blood loss damage.
Vertigo of Knowledge – Causes dizziness for the team, making them forget how to use their basic attack, enhanced abilities, or ultimates. Alternatively, they may simply skip a turn.
The Tower of Aether – A group attack where he collapses a towering structure onto his enemies.
Skyward Stalemate – He can "place" a tower on a single character, as though putting them in checkmate on a chessboard.
His special attack:
He unnaturally curves his body. Just as owls flare their feathers when threatened, he spreads all his bird-like elements into a threatening pose. The countdown begins until his head twists 180 degrees downward.
He then declares:
"Ignorance......it is darkness."
And the battlefield is plunged into impenetrable darkness. There’s a 30% chance that an attack will hit Amethyst with +20% attack power; all other attacks miss (either hitting an ally or striking nothing).
Amethyst then surges from the darkness with his burning, fiery eyes and an unnerving smile, swinging his claws wildly.

first meeting
Thud. Crack. Clack-clack-clack.
The ball rolls off the cue's strike so smoothly it might as well be pulled by a string. It crashes into the neatly arranged formation of other balls, scattering them in every direction. Amethyst enjoys setting up challenges for himself in the game — driving balls into nearly impossible positions, forcing himself to strategize and strain for the next shot.
But this time, the balls don’t stop rolling. One by one, all fifteen scatter perfectly into the pockets, leaving the cue ball, the first ball — untouched in the center of the table.
At that very moment, a knock sounds at the door. Faceless men in plaster bust masks step aside to admit two figures: a similarly faceless servant and another man.

Honkai: Star Rail
In this au, Dr. Ratio is now known by the stone pseudonym Amethyst. He joined the Interastral Peace Corporation relatively recently, driven there by the most harrowing disappointment—in himself and in the world he once swore to protect. But spare yourself any drama: Ratio has transformed into a truly calculating, selfish monster with no intention of reform or redemption.
Once a scholar with eight doctoral degrees, he came to a grim realization: his actions brought no light to the world. Humanity remained ignorant and base, as if the old society had simply been given new settings to play in. Rejected by both people and the Aeons, he abandoned his life's work. It was during this downward spiral that Diamond found him.
From that moment on, no one dared to call him Dr. Veritas Ratio again. His name became Amethyst, and may the Aeons help anyone who dares to make that mistake. For his goals, he will do anything—and then some.
"Can I do the right thing For the wrong reason?" – Hellfire by The Fever 333 (the entire song fits him perfectly in this AU).
Like every Interastral Peace Corporation member, he helps those who come to them after successful deals and punishes those who fail to fulfill their end of the bargain. His "monstrosity" in this universe lies in his ruthless sense of justice—one that people despise because, naturally, people hate paying their debts.
And yet, there are families who deeply value and respect him—not as Dr. Ratio, but as Amethyst. He often calls them to check in, like some kind-of-wealthy-uncle keeping tabs on his extended family.
still thinking about the final look of it.

Honkai: Star Rail
Kakawasha is a Synogian slave who became a scholar in the Guild of Erudites after a successful deal with Yashma. You could say his past remained largely unchanged, except for one key difference: he chose to study his own luck "under a microscope" and proposed the idea that luck is not merely a series of fortunate coincidences but something far more substantial.
Dr. Kakawasha hasn't achieved the same level of success as Ratio in the canon, but he is still respected within certain niche circles. His focus lies in abstract sciences, which, due to their specific nature, are in little demand. Nevertheless, Yashma believes that this "child" of hers will one day bring her personal good fortune. As such, she is fiercely protective of him, just as she is with all her "children."
