Oh! It was Yellow Diamond Spinel had been referring to. That was a surprise to her, honestly. She hadnât been on Homeworld in a while, so she didnât really know about the new powers that Yellow, White, and Blue had developed. Still⌠it was worth a shot. If she could use her power to fix her physical form, then that would be worth the trip back to Homeworld.
Before she could speak on that much, though, Spinel commented on the Volleyball nickname. She had to agree, of course. It was a silly name. The only reason Pink had tolerated it was because Steven had reminded her of Pink in that moment. The name Spinel did come up with, thoughâŚ
âPeeps?â Her smile brightened.
âI like it,â she concluded after a few brief moments to think. The compliment from Spinel did make her cheeks flush a tiny bit, but she did her best to not draw attention to it. Most Gems wouldnât have bothered to think of a cute sounding name for her. A lot defaulted to Pearl or Pink, at least in Little Homeworld. Having a different one was nice. Especially when she liked the sound.
âItâs cute,â she continued, âand I appreciate the thought behind it, Spinel.â Now, though, she had to backtrack a little bit in the conversation. Back to Yellow Diamond.
âDo you really think Yellow Diamond could help me?â Her head tilted slightly. âBecause⌠I think itâs worth a shot if you do.â Her hand subconsciously trailed up to the left side of her face, running against the cracks present there. Truth be told? Pink would love to have her eye back. She just had to hope that it actually would work.
âIâm real glad ya like it! Thought it might fit ya a bit better than... Volleyball. I really do need ta talk to Steven if heâs runninâ outta ideas for names.â Spinel quite literally rolled her eyes around their sockets at the silly name. One of these days she has to have a talk with Steven about giving good nicknames to gems as it was clear he needed some tips and pointers if he thought naming someone after some sports equipment was good enough. If anything it just made Spinel worried about what else he was calling gems.
Her smile only widened as she saw the other blush and offer a smile, her form filling with more positive energy as she saw the other happy with her new name. One thing Spinel thrived on was seeing her give smiles to others and Peeps was no exception. Now with a happier bounce in her step she nodded her head in excitement to her question.
âOf course! Yellow Diamond can help corruption, Iâm sure she could help ya with whatever happened to ya. If not then we could go ta Blue too. All the Diamonds have cool new powers theyâre usinâ ta help gems from all over the star map! I also live with âem and help whenever I can if Iâm not doinâ my own business. It wonât hurt ta at least try. Come on, I can bring ya there if youâre nervous.â Spinel hesitated waiting to see the otherâs reaction as she wanted nothing more than grab onto the pearlâs hand and drag her off to the closest warp pad so they could get back to Homeworld where he Diamonds had gone back to.
âAnd Iâll make sure not ta make a peep about this if ya donât want ta go.â
