Herkimer diamonds are double-terminated quartz crystals discovered within exposed outcrops of dolomite in and around Herkimer County, New York, and the Mohawk River Valley in the US.

You can hide it from others, but you can’t hide it from me

You’re a quartz

Higher ranking than any other

Even citrines

But I see straight through you

You’re referred to as a Diamond only as a courtesy to your gemtypes natural quality

How long before you face someone you can’t deal with

How long before somebody Reveals the great and powerful eyes is just an old lady behind smoke and mirrors 

How long before Everything falls apart?

Why do you assume that what I've been doing will cease to work?

I've already been doing well for so long, why not longer?

Before, as a Quartz, I had the power, I had the smarts, but I didn't have the presence needed to help unite us to work together.

I sacrified to become this. This is for the colony, nothing more.

[the-herkimer-diamond]

Why are you faking?

“I… I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Meet Prime Bismuth!

As promised, his art is finished, so I shall show him off to you!

An era 2 (Era of the Orchard Star) Bismuth, whom was cultivated in a Soleil kindergarten on the now lost colony Ziplon-12, as an extra hand for Orchard Star's court, instead of joining their court however, a sudden overflow of terraformers emerged on one of Orchard's colonies, making Soleil's gift to him unnesessary, and so he was allowed to stay on Ziplon, where he would quickly become an honorary member of the Honorable Hematite's court, a now missing Elite Gem, and whom was once the show stopping co-host of an almost lost media status show.

When Ziplon was lost, he and a few thousand Gems escaped into space, being reassigned to other stations. He was assigned to man a cargo ship belonging to The Burlesque, where he remains to this day.

Until Now! As I, Grey, have convinced him to meet you, Herkimer Diamond! @the-herkimer-diamond

[the-herkimer-diamond]

“Fascinating… it’s nice to meet Bismuth.”

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

“Greetings… You’re Herkimer Diamond, right?”

“It is quite pleasant to meet you, as well. I have agreed to join your colony, if you have discussed with Pallasite.”

“If you have yet to, please reach out again when you have, please”

[the-herkimer-diamond]

“Hello Bismuth.”

“Unfortunately I haven’t spoken with Pallasite yet, but I will very soon.” “it’s very nice to meet you”

[bismuthp]

“It Has been made.”

An informal Greetings from the head of the Burlesque court, Grey Diamond.

[stamped crookedly, clearly placed in a hurry by one of Grey’s Pearls]

HHHHHUIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!

Ahem, forgive my sudden writings to you, Herkimer Diamond, but i have recently learned of your blog’s existence and i felt i myst welcome you!!!

Dw a thing Queen—king, Monarch? I meannyou no harm whatsoever, as you are a friend of someone i deem a friend, BM!

Please write back to me at your leisure i would love to discuss anything in general!

Also you may call me Grey if you wish, though my true name is “The Burlesque” you could even call me The if you want! HAH that’d be hilarious—!

It is so cool to meet you!!

"Ah, hello there Grey!"

"It is very nice to meet you, welcome to the colony."

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

Thank you for uh— having me, sadly i cannot be there in person, hence the letter. Well— i can, but i deemed it inappropriate to do so, for very obvious reasons.

But if you permit me, I am here— there? Instantly! :D

It is very wonderful to meet you, as well— i repeat for the 30th time…

Anyways, how are you, how is your wonderful home??? I don't honestly have any full fledged planetary colonies to my name yet, so i’d love to hear about it!!

It’s so cool my pal BM here has found a place to belong, im so so so happy for them!!

Do you guys need help with anything? Not to uh— offend you all of course, but i can make perfect copies of anything I've seen before, even from photos or videos, so if you’d like i could stop by and create away!!

:D!!

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Well, I think it would be nice to meet you... but maybe perhaps at a later date? No offense, but I just need some time to converse with my gems."

"My colony is doing well. It is not working as well as I have hoped, but it is enough to keep us running. I trust my technician to support the colony, as they have done so so far."

"Your power is interesting... making copies? Fascinating..."

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

Of course Of course, sorry if i’m coming off too strong, i get excited very easily…

Waiting for another time is perfectly fine with me, i have the patience of uhh— uhm, are fleas patient, Purple says im as patient as one all the time.

Regardless i will wait!

As for the subject of my powers, yes! Making copies of anything i have seen before is one of them. My gem stores an infinite amount of energy and “mana” as humans would call it, which i can use to create perfect replicas, down to the anatomical level. Purple Diamond likes to presume I pull atoms from some place inside my domain, and arrange them into what i desire, but i don't believe it really.

these creations once made wont disappear if i poof or anything either, since they're entirely real constructs!

so i like to give things out on occasion! :D

*He’d demonstrate his ability with a casual flick of his pointer finger, recreating the form of what appeared to be a 8 week old long haired chihuahua puppy, it had brown hair with a spot on it’s forehead.*

*He gently lowered it into his other palm, and it began looking around and wagging it’s tail, perfectly healthy*

Hehe… neat huh?

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Oh! That is... more powerful than I expected."

"Creating life from nothing? That's a strong power..."

--She looks at the dog--

"What is this creature?"

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

The people of earth call it a Chihuahua, it’s a type of canine known as a dog. This one is only a youngling, known as a puppy.

Ive only been to earth in my reality a few couple times.

creation is just one of my many abilities, though, as a Diamond i have quite a lot— one that i feel bonds me closely to BM is my ability to control light and darkness, it’s a bit different from BM’s Umbrakinises i believe they call it—i can never spell it right i swear— but i enjoy the idea of getting to snoop on people from the darkness together some day!

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Fascinating... Pallasite has spoken of something called "cats" before, but she's never told me about this earth creature."

"So far, I have never visited Earth. I know Pallasite has visited a couple times, and since I know that she's a very capable gem who knows what she's doing, I haven't taken any offense with it."

"And I think the term is Umbrakinesis."

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

Umbrakinesis, got it, I was super close!…ugh—

this is why i dropped out of school

Ahem, so tell me, what kind of Gems live on your colony? Is Pallasite your only technician? They do seem like they know what they’re doing, it’s so much fun observing their communication logs :>

not in a creepy way, OML— ;^;

Also! Cats are the best!

The only picture i have of a cat is a meme…AHEM— still, good enough!

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Hmm... We are not a big colony, but some of the Gems we have are a Spinel, a Calcite, two to three Agates, a Selenite, and others."

"We are a weird little group, but we stick together through many trials."

"Yes, Pallasite can be considered our only technician. Sometimes others do help her, but she's the one mostly doing the work."

"I am a little worried that the publization of the communication logs is going to lead to troubles, but so far she's handled it well."

"And, with the information I currently have, I can say that cats are indeed the best."

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

OOOOOO hehehe, what a lovely bunch of Gems! Quite the amount of Agates too, but then again, Agates are quite lovely! I'm sure they're all having a wonderful time in your care!

Honestly, I'm running out of things to talk about, hmm... I saw that Iridescence and her court have been attempting to badger you, along with the members of the Alchemy authority--or whatever they're called. Please, don't hesitate to call for me if Iridescence tries to lay claim on your colony or something. I have the authority to recognize your people as an independent authority. My court is naturally allied with any authority unless proven hostile, so we will protect you if it is required. Not to accuse Iridescence of hostility, of course, these things are simply complex, and she's not doing well currently.

On lighter notes, I do know of a bismuth formerly belonging to Soleil's court--now belonging to me, who is currently looking for a colony to be permanently stationed on. He's currently a cargo ship pilot and maintenance lead, as in he owns the ship and does deliveries with it. I offer him to your colony, because im lowkey worried he's going mad out there, hehehe...

(Sadly i have yet to finish said Bismuth's art but i will send once i have)

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"It's... complicated. Pallasite's been the one facing them."

"I'll let Pallasite know about your words."

"And hm... tell me more about the Bismuth."

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

Right! Well... he's an era 2 Bismuth--err, not the era two you're thinking of. Era 2 in my verse began with the birth of Orchard Star, 25 million years ago-- He's prime, has his own monocle visor, and has a few minor markings from battles he's won/fought. I think he'd be very helpful for you all, he's skilled in most things, as he used to belong to one of Soleil's Hematites directly, honestly i dont know where that Hematite went tbh. The only one I know is mine, really, and he was taught by them to grow and maintain fauna, build ships, buildings, and a few minor tech-related parts, and, of course, how to make armor and tools!

He, sadly, prefers to use destabilizers over his impressive weapons, and he has a tendency to react coldly towards others...and he's a bit more strict and serious than you'd think he'd be. But he is incredibly loyal, and a great person to vent to. I'm sure you'd love him!

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Fascinating..."

"He seems like he'll fit with Pallasite, but I'll have to speak with her about this."

"As I think in the moment, I'd like him to join. He'll be of excellent help to the colony."

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

Okayyyyyyy! i'll go talk to Bismuth too then!!

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Okay, let me know what he says."

Waiting for another time is perfectly fine with me, i have the patience of uhh— uhm, are fleas patient, Purple says im as patient as one all the time.

Regardless i will wait!

As for the subject of my powers, yes! Making copies of anything i have seen before is one of them. My gem stores an infinite amount of energy and “mana” as humans would call it, which i can use to create perfect replicas, down to the anatomical level. Purple Diamond likes to presume I pull atoms from some place inside my domain, and arrange them into what i desire, but i don't believe it really.

these creations once made wont disappear if i poof or anything either, since they're entirely real constructs!

so i like to give things out on occasion! :D

*He’d demonstrate his ability with a casual flick of his pointer finger, recreating the form of what appeared to be a 8 week old long haired chihuahua puppy, it had brown hair with a spot on it’s forehead.*

*He gently lowered it into his other palm, and it began looking around and wagging it’s tail, perfectly healthy*

Hehe… neat huh?

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Oh! That is... more powerful than I expected."

"Creating life from nothing? That's a strong power..."

--She looks at the dog--

"What is this creature?"

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

The people of earth call it a Chihuahua, it’s a type of canine known as a dog. This one is only a youngling, known as a puppy.

Ive only been to earth in my reality a few couple times.

creation is just one of my many abilities, though, as a Diamond i have quite a lot— one that i feel bonds me closely to BM is my ability to control light and darkness, it’s a bit different from BM’s Umbrakinises i believe they call it—i can never spell it right i swear— but i enjoy the idea of getting to snoop on people from the darkness together some day!

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Fascinating... Pallasite has spoken of something called "cats" before, but she's never told me about this earth creature."

"So far, I have never visited Earth. I know Pallasite has visited a couple times, and since I know that she's a very capable gem who knows what she's doing, I haven't taken any offense with it."

"And I think the term is Umbrakinesis."

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

Umbrakinesis, got it, I was super close!…ugh—

this is why i dropped out of school

Ahem, so tell me, what kind of Gems live on your colony? Is Pallasite your only technician? They do seem like they know what they’re doing, it’s so much fun observing their communication logs :>

not in a creepy way, OML— ;^;

Also! Cats are the best!

The only picture i have of a cat is a meme…AHEM— still, good enough!

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Hmm... We are not a big colony, but some of the Gems we have are a Spinel, a Calcite, two to three Agates, a Selenite, and others."

"We are a weird little group, but we stick together through many trials."

"Yes, Pallasite can be considered our only technician. Sometimes others do help her, but she's the one mostly doing the work."

"I am a little worried that the publization of the communication logs is going to lead to troubles, but so far she's handled it well."

"And, with the information I currently have, I can say that cats are indeed the best."

HHHHHUIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!

Ahem, forgive my sudden writings to you, Herkimer Diamond, but i have recently learned of your blog’s existence and i felt i myst welcome you!!!

Dw a thing Queen—king, Monarch? I meannyou no harm whatsoever, as you are a friend of someone i deem a friend, BM!

Please write back to me at your leisure i would love to discuss anything in general!

Also you may call me Grey if you wish, though my true name is “The Burlesque” you could even call me The if you want! HAH that’d be hilarious—!

It is so cool to meet you!!

"Ah, hello there Grey!"

"It is very nice to meet you, welcome to the colony."

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

Thank you for uh— having me, sadly i cannot be there in person, hence the letter. Well— i can, but i deemed it inappropriate to do so, for very obvious reasons.

But if you permit me, I am here— there? Instantly! :D

It is very wonderful to meet you, as well— i repeat for the 30th time…

Anyways, how are you, how is your wonderful home??? I don't honestly have any full fledged planetary colonies to my name yet, so i’d love to hear about it!!

It’s so cool my pal BM here has found a place to belong, im so so so happy for them!!

Do you guys need help with anything? Not to uh— offend you all of course, but i can make perfect copies of anything I've seen before, even from photos or videos, so if you’d like i could stop by and create away!!

:D!!

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Well, I think it would be nice to meet you... but maybe perhaps at a later date? No offense, but I just need some time to converse with my gems."

"My colony is doing well. It is not working as well as I have hoped, but it is enough to keep us running. I trust my technician to support the colony, as they have done so so far."

"Your power is interesting... making copies? Fascinating..."

[thediamondsofthesovereignty]

[the-pallasite-peridot]

Pallasite Peridot feels eyes everywhere she goes across the colony, not a single place feels like it’s not watching her

…. It’s an eerie feeling. 

"Eh? This strange feeling is not going away..."

"What is going on?"

[reallydarkdarkness]

...That dumb red idiot is stalking us...

[the-pallasite-peridot]

"Who's this "dumb red idiot?" And how did they get here?"

[reallydarkdarkness]

...very likely Red Diamond....... just.. some asshole... with mind control.. or something...

[the-pallasite-peridot]

"Mind control?? Oh no-"

"That doesn't sound good in the slightest!"

[reallydarkdarkness]

...okay... apparen ttalllyyy...its not red........ still not believe her... but apparently...not..

[the-pallasite-peridot]

"Whatever it is, I really hope this doesn't go out of hand."

[reallydarkdarkness]

...If it does... I could just... relocate you guys... to somewhere else...

[the-pallasite-peridot]

"Yes, thank you so much. It's good to have a plan for every scenario."

[reallydarkdarkness]

... You.. may have to... turn all the lights off... everywhere.. on the colony... in order... for me... to do that... properly.....

[the-pallasite-peridot]

"Got it, I'll let everyone know about that."

"I'll ask my superior to also turn down her brightness, if that helps a bit more."

[reallydarkdarkness]

...probably..... yeah.......

......who's...your....superior...?

[the-pallasite-peridot]

"Ah."

"My superior's name is Herkimer Diamond..."

"She's basically the leader of the entire colony."

Mod: I should actually make Herkimer's blog so ima hop off for a bit to finish that up-

[reallydarkdarkness]

..i see..... I suure wonder... when I could meet her....

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Ah, hello there. Pallasite has told me about you and your arrival. Welcome to the colony."

[reallydarkdarkness]

...Well, hi...

...Does this mean... I'm a part of the colony... orrr...?

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Well of course! Pallasite is never wrong on who we should invite to the colony, so I won't stand in the way."

"I welcome you with all the grace of the colony."

[reallydarkdarkness]

oh wow... Sweet...!

....Could you... turn your brightness down......

...it hurts....

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Oh! My apologies..."

--Herkimer dims herself to a more normal state--

"I hope thats better for you, I didn't mean to cause you any harm."

[reallydarkdarkness]

...thanks...

....So..!

...Tell... me... more... about.. this colony.. of yours...

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Of course!"

"We have been here for a few thousand years, with us having arrived here to flee Homeworld and the Diamonds."

"We're trying to build a sustainable colony that is seperate from Homeworld, where we can do what we want without rank bearing down on us.... with some restrictions."

"Since sometimes we have to go in the caverns to avoid detection, I have brightened my light so to help sustain the others."

[reallydarkdarkness]

...caverns...? Thought you.. were space guys... tbh....

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Well, we are, but we need some place to hide when Homeworld comes looking around."

Mod: I think i accidentally forgot part of my colony lore, mb

[reallydarkdarkness]

Ahh...! Well... I cooulldd.... relocate us... whenever... they get too close...

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"Oh? You can? Well that's just wonderful!"

"It'll put less strain on our resources, and will be much faster for us to move!"

"I understand why Pallasite trusts you so much."

[reallydarkdarkness]

aww... thanks...!

...If... I were to do that... you would... have to... turn the lights off.... everywhere....

[the-herkimer-diamond]

"No worries, when needed, I will let our gems know and we will make it happen."

[reallydarkdarkness]
