I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND

– PERIDOT  ( @whirlygem  )

YOU DO? YOU’RE SO LUCKY! HOW DO YOU GET ONE OF THOSE?

❝Lookin’ good, champ.❞ Amethyst mutters before slapping the other gem on the butt, her eyes focused on the cell phone in her hand rather than the person she’s interacting with. It takes a moment for her brain to catch up to what she’s done.

❝Wait a second...❞ Halting her steps, her head whips around to gawk at the owner of the aforementioned butt. Sure, it’s a reflex to flirt with her girlfriend whenever they pass by, be that at home or on the street like right now. But Amethyst knows what her girlfriend’s butt should feel like, and this is not it. 

She loves to accessorize, but mostly when it comes to bows! She’s got bows for every occasion in every colour and has one she can wear for every outfit she owns. Not just hair bows either, but bows for her top, bows that wrap around her leg, her wrist, or bows for her shoes too. Bows everywhere.

{she already knows who she’d go to to ask questions about dating a rock

[wait how is korea's system different?]

IM GLAD YOU ASKED

In South Korea (idk about North Korea) the way ages work is a little different! So, for example; Rika’s age in the English guidebook is 23, but the book doesn’t specify if that matches the age for the international community, or if that’d be her age in South Korea.

YOU SEE, in South Korea, age is important, apparently, and they have two ways of seeing how old you are. Internationally, there’s the birthday age (counting age by exact month, day, and year) and then there’s the Korean Age.

How Korean Age works (apparently, I looked it up but I am by no means an expert) is that as soon as a baby is born, they turn 1 year old. And after every New Year, regardless of when they were born in the year, they age one more year. So Rika’s birthday is November 3, so if we say she was born in... 1992, for example, she’d be 2 years old in Korean age as of January 2nd. In Birthday age, she’d be a little under two months old.

So if we assume that she’s going by Korean age, then her Birthday age would put her at 22. But if we assume she’s going by her Birthday Age, she’d be 24 in Korean age. The short and skinny of it is; to find your Korean age, tack a year on.
