“Isn’t it obvious? I’ve come to earth to meet you. And the other Crystal Gems as well.”
“Isn’t it obvious? I’ve come to earth to meet you. And the other Crystal Gems as well.”
“Now, can you tell me who this is?” She asked, gesturing sharply to Spinel.
Amethyst looks to spinel, as though asking her if she wants to introduce herself.
She didn’t seem to like how Peacock said that, especially with that rude jab. It felt like, to her, she was praising Amethyst and scowling at her.
Spinel didn’t say anything, she kind of just looked away.
Amethyst frowned a bit, looking back to peacock. "This is spinel. My close friend."
“Oh, a Spinel?” She asked, “I’ve never heard of one of those before…” Peacock pinched Spinel’s hair curiously.
Amethyst swatted her hand away, holding her closer.
“Oh, my… Have I offended you?” Peacock asked, tilting her head slightly.
"Just… dont touch her." Amethyst mumbles.
Spinel didn’t seem to like that this Gem hasn’t heard of her, and tried to keep back a scowl.
“Of course.” She replied, bowing her head quickly.
"Thank you." She pets spinel's hair. "And I'd appreciate if you treated me as an equal, and her."
“I understand.” She still eyed Spinel as if she was a unique zoo animal, even so.
Spinel looked to the side, opening and closing her hands awkwardly as the Gem stared at her. She was clearly uncomfortable by Peacock’s staring.
She quietly whimpered to let Amethyst get this, knowing she’d be able to handle this better than herself.
Amethyst got the message, looking at peacock. "Y'know, normal people dont get stared at like an animal."
She pulled a pink fluffy fan from her gem, waving it in front of her face absentmindedly. “Oh, I’m quite sorry, it’s just that her attire really isn’t the best.” Peacock closed her fan and gestured to Spinel with a flick. “Yours, however, gives off a specific feeling of ‘in a human city, in an alleyway,’ though, I’m not one to judge the fashion choices of the Crystal Gems.”
Amethyst narrowed her eyes again. "We can dress how we like. It's not up for judgement."
“Of course, it won’t happen again.” She said sincerely, smiling and bowing once more.
Spinel silently edged a bit closer to Amethyst…
“So, what’s the deal with this bimbo..?” Spinel whispered to her through her teeth.
"I'm not sure, but I dont like it much…" she whispered back.
“Agreed.” She muttered, glancing at her fan, ”Somethin’ fishy ‘bout her…”
"So, you just came all this way to see me?" Amethyst questions.
“And the other Crystal Gems.” She finished, her expression unreadable.
"Hm. Well, the other crystal gems are elsewhere, Steven is over there." She pointed. "Maybe get out of our hair for a while…" she mumbled under her breath.
”Sure hope so…” Spinel said quietly, keeping a polite look on her face.
“Oh yes, Steven. The savor of the galaxy.” Peacock said in a pleased tone. “I’ve heard all about him. Though I have missed the majority of his announcements due to my work. Clients are so picky with the way I do my job.” She admitted. “Honestly, I have a style.“
(I don't know what has happened to my character at this point, so I'm just gonna pretend that she started walking through the woods.)
Nightfall glanced up at the trees as she walked, the large leaves blocking out the sky. She stopped and looked around when she heard voices. She realized they were coming from up ahead, and quietly stepped closer to the line of bushes at the edge of the trees. "Oh yes, Steven." She heard one of the voices say. What's a steven? She thought. She slowly stuck her head through the bushes, and looked around, spotting three figures. One purple, one pink, and the other extremely sparkly, like an Icewing. Who are they? And what are they?
