Phos X Gem Reader
“Hey Phos, are you willing to help me out with these boxes?” Rutile asked Phos who was wandering around the school.
“Huh? Sure.”
Phos slowly walked their way to one of the boxes and groggily picked it up. Rutile looked over with an annoyed expression as Phos tried to make it clear to Rutile they weren’t feeling good.
“Whats gotten into you?” Rutile finally said.
Phos laid on the box and reached their arm to the air.“Oh, Rutile, I had done something so dumb!” Phos exaggerated.
“Just get with it already.” Rutile sighed.
“I made G/N upset…”
Phos slumped down to the floor in a fetus position. Rutile examined the poor gem’s figure. It seemed as if Phos had not gotten a single sleep at all.
[Riiiiing…]
“Eek! What the heck was that for!? You’re supposed to comfort me!” Phos backed away from Rutile who was now holding a hammer with a blank expression.
“Oh…right. What did you do to make them upset?”
Phos looked down in embarrassment for a minute but soon gained the confidence. Their eyes meeting Rutile’s expressionless face.
“I told them I was gonna fight out there with the rest of the gems.” Phos said.
Rutile did not respond but instead looked at Phos with yet no expression. Phos moved around awkwardly, fidgeting with their fingers. The silence between them was soon broken.
“You’re kidding, right?”
“Why would I be kidding!”
Rutile grabbed a box and placed it on the table.
“Look, how about you go talk it out with them, ok? I mean, with your low hardness you are for sure not the one who’s suitable to be out there. I can see why they’ll be upset. They care about you and your safety; I’m sure they wouldn’t want to lose you.” Rutile said.
Phos looked down in shame. Rutile was right, G/N did really care for them. In fact, they might be the only one who’s actually been concerned for them. Especially during that time when Phos got devoured by a big slug.
G/N was absolutely distraught with the news they received that day. Maybe it wouldn’t hurt to go tell them that they have nothing to worry about.
“Alright!” Phos got up with pride and joy. Their hair and eyes shining brightly as Rutile huffs and puts the boxes in the shelf before Phos ran to look for their beloved gem friend.
“Thanks for helping.” Rutile muttered in a sarcastic tone before continuing their work.

G/N was on duty to patrol and keep lookout for any unwanted visitors. Their (E/c) eyes skimming through the sky. They walked through the grassy field and waved at any gems from afar, though, their mind was stuck on a certain someone.
“G/N!”
A sudden voice came out of nowhere in which made G/N completely come back to reality, but unfortunately their reaction was a bit late.
As soon as G/N turned around, a huge crack can be heard from both the gems who had made impact.
“Ah, sorry…” Phos mumbled looking at the crack that had been formed on G/N’s forehead. Phos grabbed their now broken arm that was laying on the grassy plain.
“Be careful, you could’ve damaged yourself even more, or worse, be in the eyes of the lunarians!” G/N pulled Phos up to their feet and pulled them closer, looking out for any enemies. They couldn’t risk any harm being done to them.
“Why are you out here?” G/N questioned Phos.
“A-ah, well, I wanted to go talk to you about yesterday.” Phos looked down to their feet, their eyes darting back in fourth to G/N and the ground.
G/N furrowed their eyebrows but relaxed and smiled. They put their hand on the young gem’s shoulder, squeezing them.
“How about after patrol?”
~~~~~~
The color of h/c lit up the room as the jellyfish swim in the small wooden bowl. G/n was already in their white night gown and waited for Phos to appear on their doorway. Their eyelids heavy as bricks as they try not to fall asleep.
G/n had a feeling that maybe Phos wasn’t gonna show up, but before they could lay their head on the pillow, a mint colored gem was standing right in front of them.
“Ah, you’re here.” G/n yawned out, stretching their out.
Phos sat next to G/n who was still trying to not fall asleep at any moment. Their figure slumping and sitting right back up every time.
“I’ll make this quick!” Phos yelled out.
“When I said I wanted to fight out there, I didn’t mean to make you upset…I just really wanted to be useful,”The glowing light on Phos dimmed.
“I don’t want to do boring stuff, plus I can’t even do any of them right! So I think fighting those lunarians might be a good job for me! Although I’m not strong, I’m sure I can somehow make it.” Phos looked at G/n with pride but also a bit of doubt.
G/n pulled Phos into a hug.
“Phos, you slug! Why risk being a jewelry to the lunarians! You are useful, you have a meaning and although those jobs did not meet your expectations, that does not mean you’re useless! I want you to be safe…” G/n tiredly yelled out.
Phos looked out at the small window, the moon glowing brightly and illuminating around them.
“But you also risk your life out there, G/n.”
“So what? At least it’s not you. I don’t care if I get crushed by them.” G/n held onto Phos tighter.
“H-hey! You mean a lot to me too! I wouldn’t want to lose you, you’re the only gem who at least cared about me.” Phos mumbled under G/n’s night gown.
“I won’t mind risking my life for you, Phos.” G/n said before slumping down on the bed, along with Phos.
Phos stared at the wall.
Their mind was full of questions to G/n.
G/n can risk their life out there, but why can’t they? Phos means a lot to G/n and it makes sense for them to not want their friend to get captured, but what if the opposite happened?
Phos felt absolute dread of the thought of G/n being broken to pieces and lifted up to the lunarians.
“Phos, maybe tomorrow you can come to patrol with me. We can probably fight the lunarians if they arrive tomorrow, I’ll make sure to protect you.” G/n muttered.
Phos looked at G/n in surprise, but before the gem could say anything, G/n was already asleep. Phos examined G/n’s sleeping figure and scooted close to them, wrapping their arms around G/n’s hips.
“If anything were to happen to you, I’ll make sure I make those lunarians pay, or maybe we both can go to the moon.” Phos said to the sleeping G/n.
The light in the room dimmed as both the gems slept.
