“No, of course not! I was made in Yellow Diamond’s image. Yellow is actually the best color – Ah. I believe you were teasing me!” It took her a moment to catch on, but before being here, she probably never would have at all.
“You know…” She sunk down into the water, letting her hair rinse. “I’ve been to so many planets…and I’ve watched Lapis Lazuli’s work. I’ve been afraid of their power. They’ve got the strength of a Quartz but with ten times the grace and beauty. I suppose in a way, I wasn’t afraid, but in awe….”
She really needed to stop going on and on about it, but it was hard when this was the first time she’d ever really talked to such a strong gem.
“Ha! Imagine if A Lapis fused with a Quartz soldier! Hear me out, these Earth gems might be right about fusion. They seem to do it quite flippantly, but they’re actually onto something. A Lapis and a Quartz would really be something! Something huge and beautiful~!”
Her snickering died down, easing into a tired smile, at the other Gem’s nose.
She let Pearl continue to ramble on, soon realizing she should not have-- yet, she knew there was no stopping her, even as her form tensed. A Lapis Lazuli and a Quartz--
Lapis flinched; she shut her eyes, frowning, and tried not to think of that Gem.
“No they wouldn’t,” she finally said, eyes opening and focusing on the water instead of the other Gem.
“It would be something... awful.”
Lapis stood, slowly removing herself from the bath tub. Normally, she wouldn’t have cared about the water dripping from her form, but now she immediately wrapped a towel around herself. She didn’t look at Pearl as she sat upon the edge of the bath tub.
“Have you ever fused? Do you even know what it’s like?”
