#i fucking love argenthill. so much

[estrellium]

merry yurimas to these 2 🎉🎉🎉 ft. a modern take on their outfits

[dazed-19]

based on @havanillas role swap au

normal ratio and gambler ratio switch places :3

probably gonna write this out when i finish up my argenthill fic

dr.kakavasha is suspicious of “Lapis” but chalks it up to him being weirder than usual

ratio actually understands what’s going on and tries to play the role of Lapis. he hypothesized that aven probably took his place in this universe but when he sees dr.kakavasha he freezes up and almost reveals himself.

when dr. kakavasha actually has a meeting with veritas (by force not choice, more contrast between the characters hahaahha) he realizes its not Lapis and threatens veritas.

“You’ve done your research, you know that this stoneheart’s real name is veritas ratio, but it seems you somehow haven’t caught wind of who he is now. I suggest you reveal yourself so you can lessen your punishment. Impersonation of a stoneheart is strictly forbidden.”

Ratio being ratio, uses his wits to convince dr.kakavasha. He understands that since Dr. Kakavasha is similar to himself, he should see his reasoning. Dr. Kakavasha is surprised at first, but after he learns of what Ratio’s universe is like he obliges and helps Ratio figure a way back home. All the while asking Ratio questions about himself as he finally has a chance to see who the Veritas Ratio he heard so much about while studying was like before he turned into Lapis. He does this to also understand Lapis better, because he wants to know what was the difference and why they became so different. He also is very surprised when veritas whips out his abalasor head because what the fuck?? when they’re alone together ratio uses it when he’s deep in thought because while this is kakavasha, he isn’t his.

aventurine immediately realizes it’s not his doctor bc while Lapis understands what’s going on, he dreads having to be veritas ratio again. so he disappears (as best as he can) as he knows his counterpart will find a way to fix this. aven being aven finds Lapis (he’s lucky ofc he’s gonna find him) and is surprised to see how different Lapis is from veritas and makes note of how much nous’ gaze really impacted the both of them. (if aven already knows that ratio never received nous’ gaze make it so that he realizes how much it matters as well. idk if aven actually knows this so that’s why we gotta research.) he also invites Lapis to stay with him bc Lapis has been staying at a run down hotel with a casino. aven invites him also because he wants to understand veritas more so if he learns more about Lapis, veritas’ opposite but still similar, he’ll be able to figure veritas out. and also because he wants to find out how to get his doctor back. Safe to say he is SHOCKED when Lapis is almost exactly like himself. He knows he shouldn’t be surprised since Lapis already explained what was going on, but he’s still surprised. While he would love to see a version of Ratio gamble and win 10 times in a row, he knows that his Doctor would hate to see his reputation ruined and to be thought of as a gambling addict so he makes sure that Lapis stops before things get even crazier. He opts to let Lapis gamble with himself to at least keep him entertained. Also while Aven originally let Lapis stay so they could find out how set things right, he is again shocked when Lapis slacks off and almost never touches a single book or article about dimensional travel.

“Lapis, I hope you know that while I enjoy winning against you when we gamble,” Aven stated. He wanted to get a start on how to get his doctor back, and Ra- Lapis, had done as much as spending two seconds reading a book. He took a breath, “That’s not why I invited you to stay with me.”

“I am aware, however I’m sure your Ratio is on his way to figure out whatever happened. He’s honestly probably working with my little doctor hah. Oh how I wish I could’ve seen Dr. Kakavasha’s face when he realized it wasn’t me.”

Aventurine froze. “Sorry, Kakavasha?” Lapis looked at him for a moment. And then laughed.

“Oh right, hah. Here you’re not called by your birth name since your a stoneheart. I keep forgetting that, sorry Aventurine.”

Also there’s probably one moment where Aven finds Lapis drunk and there’s a reference to the comic the artist made.

“Lapis stared into Aventurine’s eyes. Like he was lost in them. It seemed as though he could stare into those multicolored eyes forever.

“Lapis, my friend, its about time we head back no? I’m sure you’ll regret not drinking any water tomorrow so-“

“They’re beautiful.”

“…What?”

“Those eyes.” He pauses, taking another moment to stare before he dons a smile too wide for the face Aventurine has come to know. “Hah its just like what happened last time I drank this much.” The blonde’s eyes widen into saucers. The sharp inhale he does does nothing to calm himself down.

“Haha, is- is that so?”

“Quite. It's most likely the one constant throughout the universe. Your eyes will always be pretty, and they will always make me yearn.” Lapis whispers the end of that sentence, like if he says it any louder this moment will shatter into a million pieces, like a mirror.”

yk the short audio of Boothill singing with Robin? Robinhill (maybe robinhillgenti, cause I’m a sucker or Argenthill and he has a meaningful connection with music to); Mentions he was a wonderful singing voice (has he sung before?) After a moment: …Yeah, he used to. (...his pops taught him guitar and how to sing. His little girl had loved it. And now it’s all gone). Robin and/or Argenti would love to hear one him play, if he doesn’t mind (He does).

…Eventually (few days/weeks type eventually) he says fudge it and they/he’s able to find an old guitar for him to play. He doesn’t get to finish it before almost breaking down (Cause it hits him [again] that he’s the only ones who knows these. Aeragan-Epharshel’s songs. His home’s. His family’s. What his pops would sing to him and his big-little family and what he would to his little and grandest sunshine. And the kicker is that there was so much more genres and music and fudgin culture around his entire fucking planet. And it was all fuckin’. Up in flames. [Cause of the damn IPC. Intergalactic Peace Corporation his darn casket. Samhill, he can’t even speak how he used to, at home, anymore, cause they just couldn’t stop destroying Aeragan-Epharshel, huh]. All Aeragan-Epharshel gets to live by is Boothill, and he can barely consider himself “living”, now can he?).

Half want to leave it on just angst, but happy ending is* Boothill gets to spread Aeragan-Epharshel’s songs (the ones he remembers, and it still feels less-than cause it’s only with one instrument and not with the fudgin several it’s supposed to be in, like it would be at the local bar) on HSR’s version of youtube or smth, with support from Robin, on her platform w/ her or just on his own with her active promotion, idk. (It takes weeks - months - to get through the first one without his voice getting all static with tears he can’t cry).

*Dunno how it’d work with his entire… Galaxy Ranger status & bounty. But I needed to get this idea out, so, fudge you I do what I want.

i love being indulged. disclaimer these are just the ships i like n not every single potential one because thatd take forever

acheswan: still no. black swan would want to actively prevent his outcome at all costs

argenthill: i think boothill would make argenti actively crave fatherhood, especially learning that this man has been a father before. he'd respect that there's baggage about it though. boothill would probably be reluctant about the idea at first (he really doesnt want to feel like he's 'replacing' his daughter) but he'd come around to it with time and professional help. also absolutely would raise the kid with stories about its big sister

astarlan: theyd go the donor route and their kid would be so loved. asta would insist on all the super expensive luxury baby stuff and arlan would try to resist but i think he'd give in eventually. he's also a good counter-measure to asta spoiling the kid

aventio: the cat cakes are enough for them for now. (although i can imagine them adopting in the future once aventurine beats his gambling habit and begins to mellow out. they'd be good parents)

kafblade: still no. blade tolerates the fact kafka has a kid but he does not parent tb at all and kafka doesnt want him to

jingren: much the same. blade tolerates yanqing--although he'd probably soften up a bit if yanqing asked him about weapons forging. i think he'd end up fond of yanqing, maybe even make him a sword

bonus yingfeng: dan feng wouldve loved to, but yingxing was not at all interested so it was probably for the best that it was impossible

bronseele: not only do they raise bronyas eventual government appointed heir together but they probably also take in a few orphans because seele wants to pay back the kindness she received as a kid

caeheng: oh for sure. something about their specific combination of not minding either way makes me feel like they'd probably just acquire some lost kid and end up keeping it

jingheng: dan heng is a little apprehensive about yanqing but he'd be a good influence on the kid and yanqing would love to hang out with him. i dont think theyd have other kids

sampard: if sampo can quit his criminal ways then sure. if not, then i doubt gepard would be willing to settle down with him

jingluo: honestly my conspiracy theory is that yanqing is their kid and that they both know but will never acknowledge it. to me there is no universe where this ship isnt fucked up doomed yaoi so no domestic hcs here

luoliu: not a can of worms i am at all interested in opening

bonus liubai: yeah and its a tragedy that they couldnt

stellemarch: nope they are too busy having fun and being goofy together

robpaz(???): yes. they have a huge house and like a dozen kids and even more pets. they are very happy

voidwelt: i think joey would manage to manifest into hsr to express his horror if this happened

1 like and ill talk about who in hsr would have babies
