Lost Gem: Please Hug If Found
therebeldiamond:
♦ Ooo, that sounds like fun actually. Though it’d be a little hard to play here, this Kindergarten pretty much goes around most of Homeworld!
Their voices echoed in the vast emptiness of the caverns, though Pink did pause momentarily to land on one of the many pillars, admiring what looked to be an ancient abandoned building that was crumbling into the walls. Had the city above once sprawled down here as well, long ago?
♦ I dunno why know one comes here, but my guess is cause there’s basically nothing left. And to most gems, that gives them no reason to come! Everyone’s so busy working on new colonies and finding new planets, after all! Making new gems like yourself is top priority!
Pink offers a glance over her shoulders with a big smile on her face, as she continued.
♦ That’s why Blue Diamond will be very relieved to have you back at her court! Don’t worry, I’ll make sure she doesn’t go too hard on you for getting lost, it gave me a chance to make a new friend after all.
And with that the two were off again, the larger gem shifting the conversation slightly so she could learn more about her new companion. It wasn’t often she got to talk to lower gems without getting saluted all the time, this was very refreshing!
♦ Soooo, tell me about the colony you’re from. What’s the planet like? Are the gems there nice? I’m not allowed to leave Homeworld without supervision, so tell me all the details!
“Aww, but that just means there’s so many more hiding places!”
As Blue hums in thought at Pink’s explanation, her mood only sours a bit when their actual destination is brought up. She was supposed to be using this time to think up a plan to get home, but Pink had been so nice & fun so far it was easy for it all to slip her mind.
Though, she does feel a happy burst of warmth when Pink refers to Blue as her friend.
“Hmmm...well, it’s really nice and bright. Lots of, um, ‘organic life’ everywhere. I mean, not where the Kindergarten is, but everywhere else! I know other gems don’t care about that kinda stuff, but...I dunno. It always makes me so happy just looking at everything.”
“The gems I know are really great, though! I have two sis-...friends that I’m with all the time too~” She wracks her brain for a moment to remember her sisters ‘official’ gem names, and sends a silent apology to Green for having to use her ‘prissy’ name.
“Morganite and Prasiolite. Morganite’s kind of bossy sometimes, but she’s suuuper good at making plans and stuff! And even though she can be kinda mean sometimes, Prasiolite’s really strong and is almost never scared of anything~”
