Hema's talked about what he thinks of them personally and also who his favourite is but what about you? You must meet and see them just as much if not more then hema does given your role so you surely have opinions on them

Also hows your interactions with there pearls?

Also your absolutely gorgeous and my personal favourite!

Red pauses to think for a second.

Red: "Well, White was pretty intimidating when I first met her. She had a really strong presence, even though I could swear half the time she was off running around her garden. For a time I thought I saw her Pearl more than I actually saw her.

And then there's Blue, who's loud and... really loud."

Red pauses and smiles fondly.

"She's great."

"And Yellow... Ah, I must admit that I was a little starstruck when I first met her. Er, your kind of starstruck, that is. I was really nervous, but, she held a kind of softness for me and her Pearl, so it helped me ease up around her a little."

Red crosses her arms and smirks.

"Their pearls? Buttercup really wants to change my outfit. And she gives Hema weird looks sometimes. Soooo, it's complicated. Daisy, eh... She's nice, really, and gives good advice. But I swear she's startled me more times than Hema when we first met. She is SO quiet when she walks."

Given how close and how much you 4 care about your pearls have any of you tried fusing with them?

If so can you share any details?

Yellow: "..."

Blue: "Lesse, Morgan, Hema, Bluebell, a few Kyanites, the Ruby squad, a few gems from after the war, this old Kyanite I tried to promote but she kinda just... disappeared after sayin' 'nah', some other people and then a bunch of random gems I've made buddies with at the bar.~"

Yellow: "Off the record, I would hardly call the three of us 'friends'... Perhaps we were at one point, but. /pause/ Off-topic, anyways- my Pearl, General Topaz, Maggie of the Weather Station, a couple of my law walkers, and a few others. It's hard to find time to build social connections when you're as busy as we are, and I have very high standards."

What’s your favorite piece of tech you’ve worked on so far, and why is that?

Yellow: "You might as well ask me what my favorite star is. Oh, what to choose..."

/Yellow sips her tea, then taps her chin with her stylus while lost in thought. It takes her several quiet minutes of consideration./

Yellow: "Diamond pads are too easy, but unequivocally the most valuable invention to gemkind so far. Injector drills made gems possible, so that's also too obvious. My favorite?"

It would be a great bonding exercise

White: "Oh I have taken him on many field missions since he started working for me.~ It just... took a while to start doing so regularly."

/pause/

Red: "I believe Yellow put it best, once. "Challenging". And..." She pauses, an unreadable, but fond look on her face. Red: "Funny. I asked myself the same question. But, let's just say that he can handle himself just fine for the most part when he's big... but."

Like have you ever got so engrossed in something that you havent even realised several years have past and you havent left your room?

Afterall its not like you age nor need to eat or sleep not really anyways so without any distractions I imagine you three could easy blink and a large amount of time has past

Yellow: "Make no mistake we do still need to rest. Our amberdays are very important to our body maintenance and mental acuity. Plus, we're far too busy to get wrapped up in personal projects for longer than a few hours."

White: "Says the gem that went into a fugue state to design Peridot pods and then got really angry when you realized you just needed to hollow out a flask robonoid and put a gem in it."

Yellow: "I thought we swore not to talk about it. Like the cone of shame."

When hema is off on a misson whats your daily routine? Do you do assignments for white or one of the other diamonds while hes gone?

Ps your my favourite and I think your prettier then the diamonds and i dont care if they take offence to that ❤️

Red: "Oh! Well, Hema rarely ever leaves without giving me the rundown of where he's going or what work needs to be done. If there's anything I need to do, I make sure it's done first and foremost. It's not Hema's frustration I'm worried about so much as the Agate managers that oversee us and our tasks... " (Her smile twitches, but she remains composed.)

Red: "Buuut if that's all taken care of, I'll see if there's a Pearl meeting I can mingle my way into.~ That's entertainment enough to rival anything in the Blue District. "

(Red glances around and does a smug little smirk, a small blush on her face.)

Yeah i know gems arent all the same but alot gems of the same type share certain mannerisms and patterns right? So are there any that just have freaky aspects to them?

Like i can imagine sapphires with there future vision could be eerily creepy given they could stay stuff like "ive seen several future where you get shattered this cycle please do be careful"

White: "Our gems do not 'creep' us out, we have seen horrors your mortal mind can scarcely imagine."

Blue: "I dunno, I think Magnetites are kinda creepy."

Yellow: "They are valuable members of society and the backbone of modern security."

Blue: "They float. And their mouths are weird. You made their mouths and eyes SO weird. Why do they light up???"

Yellow: "For VISIBILITY and SPOTLIGHTS."

But can you tell us about any other rare gems that might not be rare as her but still incredibly rare to see walking around and special?

Also do you ever find it ironic that essentially pearl type gem like nacre is rarer and more one of a kind then even a diamond given how pearls are seen in gem society?

White: "Oh you misunderstood. We could make another Nacre, we have chosen not to. It was just that her original creation malfunctioned in such a unique way that it made a gem that would not have happened naturally. If I worked hard enough at it, we could create more."

Yellow: "But, Nacre and her Pearls are so well defended in the Reef that there's been no need to create a backup of her."

White: "She is not 'more rare' than a Diamond, as the circumstances that brought us about can never be replicated."

--

Looks like strategy and fighting styles cant always beat pure brute strength huh~

There must be SOME subject that you dont bring up around her less you be dragged into a full blown speech and presentation about it 😅

Yellow: "/long-suffered sigh/ ............ White. What are the top ten tastiest rock types?"

Whats so bad about sunstones? I get why white said agates given her insufferably they seem to be

But what so bad about sunstones are they really that volatile and aggressive? What do they do?

White: "They are the most powerful gem type we have ever created... outside of Hematites."

Yellow: "Mmmm... Debatably."

Blue: "Yeah I dunno. A fusion can barely stand against them. I don't think a Hematite would last long against one."

White: "Perhaps I have a bit more faith in Hema than you two do."

Hema: "You shouldn't. If I never have to meet another Sunstone again it'd be too soon. 8);;;;"

Im not talking unstable gem types but ones that arw genuinely a pain in your rear to deal with but you need them around cuz there job or there abilities are to useful

Yellow: "Sunstones."

Blue: "Sunstones."

White: "Agates."

Yellow and Blue: "...???"

White: "I have to deal with them every day. How often do you have to deal with Sunstones?"

I can also imagine wanting to be small would also be kinda nice so you can see things from a different perspective, that and not needing to hit your head on any potential low ceiling

Yellow: "Yes, a new perspective... is a very wonderful thing indeed-."

Yellow: "-Oh stars I DO NOT miss hitting my head on low ceilings."
