taking at look at the other’s face, a switch flickered in their head. oh. right. pietersite. they've never met the gem personally, but they vaguely remember encountering him when fused. everything else was a blur.

"hm, just as I thought. you look petty, and certainly puny. not to say I’m surprised. anyone would look that way in front of ME.” cue them jabbing a finger towards themselves.

“oh. it’s YOU --” he spats with malice at the sight of the gem. “ -- what do you want?” was he looking to get kicked in the shin again? because black star would be more than happy to provide that after what happened last time.

while they could see they were a gem from yellow’s court, that doesn’t necessarily rule them out. if anything, it brings them to wonder if their diamond had sent more gems to earth -- or if the nephrite was simply a rouge. either way, they were skeptical.

having had the gem approach from behind, the quartz had nearly swung their summoned flail in defense (purely out of instinct since their time from the war). however, once they’ve determined that the nephrite meant no harm, they did the part in drawing back their weapon. though they won’t hesitate to draw it out again if they catch any suspicious behavior.
