I also don't think Life Gem would be a void parasite like Grian seeing as the portal took Gem's eye and then it started to corrupt her, I think the parasitic relationship would go the other way tbh. I also don't think Life Gem would be meeting Spider Gem and Pearl with malice in her heart, maybe only for spider Gem though. I think she'd be a little (maybe a lot) jealous that Spider Gem's got a Pearl that hasn't betrayed her and didn't die on her. In my view of Life Gem's character a bit more, I think she's really lonely? and not in tune with her own emotions (The flip flop between wanting to be red with Pearl in Wild Life and the proclamations of hate towards Pearl) for someone who plays a lot of social games. She remembers past games and in those past games she's always perma died alone (Betrayed or killed by mobs with no one to help her). Maybe she'd even be bitter towards both of them, and we know that Life Gem doesn't exactly disguise her hatred.
Though if she does have duplicitous motives then she'd probably be able to hide it. I don't even think she'd be that kind or nice to Spider Gem's Pearl, she'd be disappointed that The Scarlet Pearl she's been yearning for is not what she expected (Also her just obsession? with Red Pearl in general)
An interaction I do wanna see though is Red Gem with any of spider Gem's sisters tbh. Red Gem is just all wrong but not in the way of hostile mob hybrids should be

I'm doing alright if you disregard I've been really into Madoka Magica and recently reread The Summer You Were There (I really recommend the anime of pmmm and reading the manga of The Summer You Were There if you have the time and emotional capacity to do so) ^^'
It would really depend, who Life Gem is and where she is from, and how that would translate her behavior towards our Pearl, and what her motivation is.
Did she meet them after Secret Life? That's a sad, broken and betrayed Gem. She would try to make friends with Pearl and try to figure out, why she was betrayed her (not realizing Wild Pearl =/= our Pearl)...
After Wild Life? That's a sad, hurt, angry Gem. Does she want friendship? Does she want revenge? Her emotions are mess and she doesn't know how to deal with them, she doesn't know how to not feel them. She hates that she doesn't know and she will make it Pearl's problem, and I mean any Pearl's problem...she is venting in the worst way possible...
Past Life? That's a Gem that craves for the vicious and dangerous legend of Scarlet Pearl...and finally sees that's never happening again. She still bites and is mean, but she is learning to be friendly...........learning very poorly, but learning nonthenless. After session 7, if she saw our Pearl? That would break the facade and make her cry for the first time since she joined the games, since Secret Life.
And the void corruption...it really depends how you re-imagine Gem and the portal happening....and what it does to her already unstabel psyche.
She won't be Evil Grian level at the start. Nobody is Evil Grian at the start, not even Evil Grian...but make a lot of bad choices and kill a lot of peaople and you will get there.
Give Gem the right motivation, make her snap in one "unrealeased" game...and she might be another one... It could also explain, how she travels the multiverse ;)
Everyone can turn evil if you break them hard enough..that's how human nature is. Give the right hardship and motivation, and even the kindest of people can turn into actual monsters.
Red Gem would be...the thing that Spider sisters hate. If Hermitcraft Gem made them feel uneasy, Red Gem would be much, much worse. The raw "wrong" of every aspect of her...it might be what Dragon wanted to avoid. Because...she is corrupted by void, she is bloothirsty, she is obsessed with the Legend of Scarlet Pearl...
And you can't quite control that and obey your own twisted ideas, if you know what I mean...*eyes Dragon's need to be in charge and keep everyone under her control so she "prevents" more family deaths*...
