Help me feel appreciated. I'm too introverted. Luv u all :3

Death defyingly gorgeous, jaw droppingly astonishing, glimmering to the point where Steven was forced to look away.

Breathtakingly amazing.

(And that says something after remembering the things Stevens witnessed and experienced throughout his life.)

Let's picture this.

An oculus, entrapping the internal walls with transparent steel-like wallpaper. The flooring was completely glass, reverberating with every step coming off the two approaching gems. Above, the eye of the room was the main source of lighting, what laid inside and within the area however still unknown. The space itself was fairly dark, going against what Steven's original mapped out picture (including unicorns mind you) and casted an overall glum impression around the two other gem presences in the room. There was no table, only three chairs –thrones really –in a circle and facing each other with the light source shining just in between the middle of the ring.

Not a word.

Oh but the regality of each other gem. To explain in accuracy would be completely unfeasible.

Blue with the colors of her cloak reflecting with every shade of blue to be thought of. Cobalt, sapphire, navy, azure, indigo, teal, and other undiscovered and untagged hues. Calm and tranquil yet raging internally with the bolted command able to bend even the strongest of sky's throughout the galaxies individualized planets.

Purely symbolized yet barbed with the pierce of her sudden glare at where the white gem sat. The control she has, seen within the ways of her hue as white comes to be personalized with the contrasting shades of grey and black. A balancing factor efficient and effective in not only the ways of serenity, but also the raging shocks and blows of rebellions and revolutions tainting the everlasting millennia's of every world to be colonized.

"Wow. These diamonds look really fancy."

"Greetings my fellowship."

The white diamond was the first to acknowledge the newly arrived forms, standing from her seat and, while gesturing to YellowDiamond to take her seat, moving her lips in the manner of foreshadowing a soon to be said phrase.

"I bet they talk fancy too."

"Ey yo yellow ma dude. What up?"

?

"White Diamond," Ms. Yeti said with a nod. "Let us take our seats."

"Yeah White Diamond," the Blue Diamond's mutter was just barely heard, her elbow propped onto the side of her throne and face lazily resting on her knuckle as she mindlessly began tugging at a loose thread on her clothing. "Gosh what a bitch."

?!

"Hey whad'ya call me? Yo Yellow ya' hear that? Did ya' hear THAT. Blue's lookin' for a fight again!"

"White Diamond plea-"

"Y'know what no! Ne-O! I've had enough of this already! Today's the day Blue!" White Diamond huffed, her hands turning almost beast-like as white electric volts materialized within her grasps. "I'm sick of your attitude and I'm sick of seeing your boney lil' know-it-all face! Todays the day you will finally learn your place and how I will final-"

"You mean visage," the Blue Diamond absent mindedly added in, still fiddling with a loose strand of her garb.

"I SUMMON THE FORCES OF-"

"Enough!"

"But Yellowwwww…"

"White Diamond, be seated. Blue Diamond, sit up straight. We have a visitor"

"Yeah I know," the White Diamond half grumbled half barked out, closing and extinguishing the volts in her fists and plopping downwards onto her seat. "But it's just family."

"Yes," the voice of Blue Diamond once more rang out, her gaze traveling onto the now uncomfortable figure of Steven whom Yellow Diamond was now pushing into the middle of the circles spotlight while she seated herself.

"Welcome back Pinky," White Diamond smirked.

…

…

…

"Can we unfuse now?"

"No."

"How bout' now?"

"No."

"…now?"

"NO."

"Oh my gosh Lapis there's no need to yell."

"…*internally screeching*…"

"Hey Lapis."

"No!"

"But-"

"I SAID NO."

"But I'm hungry."

"Jasper you don't eve-"

"Do you have any cheese puffs?"

"SON OV'A-"

And with a deafening *poof*, the fusion disappeared, leaving two wide-eyed gems staring face to face with each other.

At first there was the initial hesitation.

"Is she going to make me fuse again?"

"Is she going to make a run for it?"

Around them came the slow downpour of excess materials hidden throughout Malachite's form, hooks and dead fish skittering downwards and back into the dark abyss of the ocean.

"Are you?-" muffled through the water and bubbles, yet comprehendible.

"Can we?"

"Should we?"

"Probably."

"Yeup alrighty."

And as if fate was approving of their decision, green robotic limbs lazily drifted right between the two's visions.

Grinning. "And bingo…"

High-fiving. "…was his name-o."

…

…

…

"Still pudgy as ever if I my put in."

"Rude."

"Shut it Blue."

"Psh, don't tell me to shut it you insignificant piece of-"

"But what, to do with him fellowship's is the main question at hand."

"Him?" White questioned. "Or it. Specify Yellow."

"Steven is a form of organic material. He, is alive. I've had my scientists conduct examinations and-"

"Ah yes," Blue sighed, sinking into her chair with a faint smile. "The explosion. The new hero. Quite the rep you're building Yellow."

"Science has its nee-"

"Is it science though?" White interjected. "Charging into a building and using to a, may I say, irresponsibly dangerous extent of your stored charge. A bit extreme, amirite Blue?"

"Rarely, but yes."

"Do not dare mock me with your irrelevant thoughts. Both of you. I gathered us here to decide what will become of the creature before us and that is all."

All eyes were on Steven once more, each powerful figure taking in every characterization of him as he stood and did his best to appear as nonchalant about the entire situation as possible.

Not a word…

"But whhhyy?"

"The information on him we are still in possession of, correct?"

"Yes, integrated into the system before termination of the connection."

"Hm good."

"But," White put in, "with even the common knowledge we have –the answer's pretty simple right?"

"I didn't think it's a good idea. The process has never actually been confirmed to work or, or-"

"He's Pink Yellow. Literally. Like, I don't know what Pink's trying right now, but whatever it is it's definitely not helping her situation right now. Her region's gone dude. Skadoosh. Now in possession between the three of us."

"And Pink's a traitor," her eyes never leaving the now sweating Steven. "Traitor's don't deserve to continue in their existence."

"Oh man."

"I thought of this all beforehand of course," Miss Yeti calmly put in, though there was an obvious strain to her voice. "But then I also remembered scien-"

"Oh quit it with the nonsense Yellow. We all know you were closest with Pink. Just give it up already, Pink's gone. She left you this weird…" she made multiple flapping gestures with her hand at Steven's still form. "…thing in her place. Just forget about Pink already."

("What's going on.")

"You dare…"

"Oh you did it White," Blue breathed out, annoyed as she languidly stood from her seat and shifted into a defensive stance. "God you're such an idiot sometimes."

"…scorn me in such a tone…"

"Look," also jumping up and startling Steven. "Yellow's gunna have to let go of Pink someday. Why not make the day today?" As she said this of course, her eyes shifted to focus on the smaller life form present in just before her. "Seize –the opportunity as Pink always said."

"Don't touch him!" lunging forward and blocking the first ray of voltage with a strike of her hand. She was grabbing Steven by the arm now, hurryingly shoving him behind her before the second wave of electricity hit.

"I love you man but this is for your own good!"

"Just give it up Yellow. It's two on one. We already know what's going to happen."

Defense was far more difficult that offense –being the reason to Miss Yeti's already fatigued aura. She knew it was impossible to keep this same tactic up. In fact, it became bluntly apparent that any attempted strategy would lead to failure.

So.

Plan B.

Her hands were thrusted into the glass beneath, fingers executing almost half her energy until the satisfying "crack" was heard. "Now!" she yelled, looking back and Steven and nearly "whooping" at the fact that he understood what she meant. His shield was summoned, raising it just as White Diamonds fist was raised along. Yet instead of releasing an attack, his shield was slammed to the ground, shattering the ground beneath them

So now.

They were falling.

Below them a city of Homeworld.

"Steven! Steven where ar-" interrupted as a body slammed onto her head and grabbed tightly at her hair.

"Here!" he cried, holding on for his life. "Now what!?"

"For crying out loud YelloWW!" White scream being faintly heard in the rushing wind. "Why're such a prick about this?! That flooring was expensiiiiVVVE!"

"Steven, hold on!"

"G-g-got it!"

Her energy focused, the speed being just about right.

Plan B was for a go.

"Yellow you fool!"Blue Diamond shouted just above her. "You're making a mistake."

Only a few seconds remaining as both forms were already beginning to disappear within the circumspectating light particles.

"Yellow I can see it. Don't!"

Three. Two.

"One," whispered between the hiss of a lip.

Vanished. Both remaining Diamonds gave each other a glance before they themselves teleporting back to safe area themselves. Later they'd regroup. For now –

There was a diamond on the temporary hunt.

"Pearl I'm bored."

"Would like a sandwich?"

" *gasp* For rea-"

"Hey!"

They came sputtering out from the waves, a large figure who was noticeably giving the other fairly petite figure (a piggyback ride?)…assistance.

"Amethyst look!" Pearl pointed, hoping down from the porches railing in a swift motion. "It's them! Oh they've done it! Not only did they unfuse, but they've also found it! Quickly, go find Garnet and Peridot!"

"But my sandwich…ugh fine."
