Cookie Cat for both muses!

“Aww...” Blue giggles. “It’s kinda cute...”

“...I don’t see how. It is cold, though.” Right as Yellow says this, Blue bites into the ice cream sandwich, cringing at the cold.

“Teef’--” Awkwardly, Blue manages to swallow down the piece of Cookie Cat, shuddering a little. “You-- I think you’re supposed to use your teeth... Bite it off.”

Yellow raises an eyebrow. “Oh... That... actually makes sense.”

Blue takes another bite, this time more careful, while the other gem awkwardly mimics her.

“Wow... They taste really good once you get past the coldness.”

“Really?” Yellow doesn’t really see it. “...Eh. Take the rest of mine. I don’t think I like it so much.”

Hotdogs! (For Both)

Send my muse a food or a drink and they will have to eat or drink it!

“Isn’t a dog one of those furry little animal things?” Yellow uneasily pokes at the food. “Is it made out of dog?”

She turns to Blue to see that the other pearl has already stuffed nearly half of the hot dog into her mouth. She doesn’t seem to know what to do next.

“...Blue.”

Yellow sighs and starts ripping her own hot dog into multiple smaller pieces. “This is probably how you’re supposed to do it.” And she just. Swallows one of them.

...

“Yellow?” Blue takes her own ‘dog out of her mouth.

No reply.

“It’s stuck in your throat, isn’t it?”

A nod.

“...This was a bad idea?”

A firm nod.

“Dragged here?”  Black Star qustioned the taller gem.  Confused as to how a gem would be forced to come to Earth.  “What do you mean exactly?”

[inspiredbyatraitor-blog]

“...I was... brought here on a ship stolen from Homeworld.” Yellow crossed her arms. She felt a rant coming on. “By another pearl. Ugh, I always told her that her stupid idea of trying to be anything more than what we are was going to get her killed, and what does she do? She drags me into it! Now I’m just going to die down here instead of over there!”

⌈

  The vast mirror reflecting the skies, gently moving as it reproduced a subtle sound was everything the trasluscent creature focused in during the big part of the day. It wasn’t common to force herself at isolation, except in moments when it was about an innocent victim, which probably was the root of her presence there.

  Though, she couldn’t stay like this forever. Another journey was going to distract her from those malicious feelings. A slender figure highlighted between the monochrome blues washing the pallid sand. It was far in thought that sole steps could wake up the attention of an incoming creature–

     (A familiar one, she could recognize).

  Even the softness held by the other’s voice, and that sudden apologize, there were details on them that the hologram could register on her database time ago. However, there were no register about this particular entity. Far from understanding what the other could say, Holopearl noticed, they were in seek of somebody else.

《It there way    I can provide help at you?》She offered.⌋

[inspiredbyatraitor-blog]

...This hologram(she was now sure that’s what it was, although she was surprised that it actually talked to her) looked a lot like a pearl.

Could... Yellow have made it? No, she doubted Yellow would know how to make something like this, and there wasn’t even a reason for her to.

So... was there another gem around here? Possibly a pearl?

“...I’m... I’m looking for someone,” she said quietly, unused to talking in a higher volume to anyone but Yellow. “Have... you seen another pearl anywhere recently? We, um-- We got separated... so...”

[blackstardiopside-moved-deactiv]

“Yellow?  Okay.”  The smaller gem honored Yellow’s request.  “Then could you call me Black Star?  The whole thing’s kinda a mouthful, y’know?”  She chuckled sheepishly, eyes gazing around the taller gem for just a moment.

“So.. are you new around here?  I’ve never seen you before.”  Black Star mused to herself.  “Then again, it seems like lots of gems like to come around here.”

[inspiredbyatraitor-blog]

“Black Star? Well... Yes, that seems fair.” Huh. Her request was accepted pretty easily. Earth gems certainly were... peculiar. “New... That would be correct, yes. But believe me, I’m not here by choice. I was just dragged here against my will.”

a quick note! at times i may not use icons in roleplays because holy shit each of these icons take like 10-20 minutes to make and theyre not even that good

[blackstardiopside-moved-deactiv]

The Diopside had been roaming about the countryside near Beach City.  In fact, she was on her way into town when suddenly, she heard a voice.  Not one she recognized, so she turned around to see who it was.  ‘A-A gem?!’  Black Star swallowed a lump in her throat.  Though Yellow Pearl didn’t look intimidating, Black Star’s most recent encounters.. well.. weren’t that great so she was more anxious than usual with unfamiliar gems.

“Uh.. I-I’m Black Star Diopside.”  She introduced herself, slowly nodding her head.  “But.. who are you?”

[inspiredbyatraitor-blog]

...Nope. Not a human.

This was a black star diopside? It-- Or she, rather-- was awfully tiny for one of those, wasn’t she? ...Yellow didn’t remember much about this type of gem, admittedly. Maybe the small gem was just defective.

Eh. Yellow could think of worse situations to be in than speaking with a defective gem, considering her own situation.

“I’m... Pearl. But call me ‘Yellow’, if you would.” She doubted that Black Star would even acknowledge the request-- she was still a pearl, after all-- but... it was worth a try.

[inspiredbyatraitor-blog]

@blackstardiopside

Was... that a gem? On Earth? Yellow, of course, had been aware that there were still gems living on Earth-- that pesky peridot came to mind-- but... it still felt somewhat strange to see one besides herself and Blue in a place like...

...This.

Then again, it could be something else. It didn’t look quite... right, as a gem. Yellow wasn’t sure how, exactly. Maybe it was a human? From her understanding, humans looked similar to gems; she’d never met one before, though.

“...Uh...” Well, no one around to tell her to shut up and act like a pearl, so she could just ask, she figured. “You... What are you?”

@h-o-l-o

Of course. Of course Yellow ran off. Blue could understand that she was still freaked out, but that didn’t make her any less worried and uncomfortable about the two being split up... 

Neither of the two really knew anything about the Earth, after all. Blue just hoped the other wouldn’t get herself hurt before she found her.

“...Huh? Oh! Yellow?” Yes, that person over there was vaguely Yellow-shaped. “Yellow, would you please not run away on your own like that again? It could be da--” Blue paused in her approach, now noticing that this... person(?) definitely looked different from her fellow pearl.

“Oh. Um.” ...What was this? It looked like a gem hologram... and sort of familiar. To be safe, though, she apologized anyways. “S-- Sorry. Wrong person.”
