Two Erythrites, Bloom and Ochre, and their semi-permanent fusion, Verge, a Strongite. An updated version of their designs.
They’re a pair of acrobatic Gems who tutor other Circinian Gems on how to properly sync their fusions. While they technically belong to Deepdene / Gold Diamond’s court [part of the Authority of this blog], they don’t wear her insignia.
In their downtime they put on acrobatic displays, mostly to show off their prowess, but also to inspire others.
Ochre is the stronger of the two; She’s stocky, serious, and uses her strength to amaze audiences with feats of power. She throws Bloom into the air during performances and is always there to catch her when she comes back down.
Bloom is the more agile of the two; She’s limber, flexible, and aggressive. Her surprising flexibility gives her the chance to perform insane aerial stunts, and her ability to leap several meters into the air makes her vault routines extra entertaining.
Verge is, predictably, a combination of her two component Gems. Feisty, fierce, and very precise in her movements, she’s a flawless gymnast and acrobat. Ochre and Bloom have perfect synchronicity, but choose to keep Verge’s four-armed configuration as it allows them to pull off ridiculous stunts that would otherwise be impossible.
Despite being made up of two identical gem types, Verge is a higher class of mineral due to a quirk in this blog’s AU, which allows high-sync fusion partners to amplify their power, making fusions stronger the better paired the partners are.
While Bloom and Ochre would prefer being fused, they know it’s better for them to step apart sometimes so they don’t lose themselves, since it’s very easy to get carried away as Verge.
