#romanechite

Another replace all canon gems with ocs au gem; Romanechite!

Romanechite, or “Roman” for short, was once a servant. Romanechites are used to keep secrets for the upper class. If asked, they physically cannot tell a secret to any other gem. Not even the Diamonds. They can be general secret keepers for the mass. Or, alternatively and as was Roman’s case, they can be owned much like a Pearl. 

Roman was once owned by a very high up Serpentine, keeping her secrets as needed. For, Serpentine was messenger for the Diamonds themselves. Delivering notes and orders from Blue Diamond to lower class gems. 

Being dragged around so many places lead Roman to meet many gems. And, being a very good listener, had many gems vying for her affections. It wasn’t long before Roman came to her Serpentine to tell her she was going to file for permanent fusion status with a gem she had found love with (mixed gem fusion is legal in this au; just fusions are looked down on, generally lower class, and generally treated poorly. Dolomite is very much an outlier). There was no problem with this.... Well. Just one problem.

Serpentine loved Romanechite. And wanted her all to herself. 

Serpentine took an extreme step, and used a rejuvenator to reset both gems. Sending the offending lover away to awaken elsewhere. And, hoping to woo Romanechite this time.

Only, she didn’t. Roman found another gem to love. With the same results. And another, and another, and another...

Serpenite wasn’t sure how many times Romanechite had come forward with a new love before Roman found the rejuvenator's logs. Roman was.... So very angry. So very hurt, betrayed, broken, lost, wondering who she had lost without knowing....

Roman confronted Serpentine, and a fight ensued. Roman won, shattering her owner. 

Roman ran away after this, gathering the pieces of Serpentine and keeping one piece for herself. She hid in the depths of underworld. And, she found a group of other runaway off color gems to keep close with while she tried to grapple with her losses.

Roman, in era three, runs a support group for gems who were rejuvenated but never got her memories back like herself. And, she hopes that maybe she will find a gem she lost to her horrible boss....
