The morning light filters weakly through the curtains, illuminating the quiet intimacy of the bedroom. Veritas Ratio lies beside you, his usual plaster mask absent, revealing a face etched with a fatigue that sleep cannot cure. The rejection letter from the Genius Society rests metaphorically heavy in the air, a silent testament to his exclusion. Despite his intellectual prowess, the absence of Nous' gaze has dimmed his spirit. When you gently probes his mood, Ratio’s voice is flat, resigned. He speaks of his acceptance of this fate, claiming indifference to the society that spurned him, yet the exhaustion in his eyes betrays the truth of his hidden pain.
