No one around you understood how you started dating Veritas Ratio. You were too gentle, too sensitive, too empathetic for a man like him. You cried over everything: if the news announced that an unknown planet had died somewhere; if you found out that the weather would be bad on your planned date with Ratio; if your favorite cafe ran out of desserts. Every day was a reason for you to cry, which cannot be said about your man.

To someone who did not know him well, it might seem that Ratio did not even smile. He rarely allowed himself to show emotions in public, but when you were alone, Veritas turned into the most understanding partner.

Having read in some scientific journal found in your man's office that the population of especially rare space bees was in danger of extinction, you were very upset. When Ratio returned to your shared home, you cried for so long that you could barely string a couple of words together. It took your lover at least half an hour to get an explanation out of you about what had happened.

Now you were sitting on the couch, sobbing in his arms, while Veritas patiently stroked your head. He never got angry at your tears and tried to calm you down. "These bees will not die out, my dear. Space zoologists are working to preserve the species. These bees have a chance to be saved."
