As the others voiced their thoughts, Ryan held the pink crystal up, its glow reflecting in his green eyes. [color=pink]“Eddie, you always think with your stomach.”[/color] He teased, before turning to the rest. [color=pink]“But Tommy has a point. That earthquake might have dislodged something. Still, these crystals are far too beautiful to be ordinary debris.”[/color]

At the idea of being drawn to the crystals, Ryan’s interest was piqued further. [color=pink]“Well, of course I was drawn to mine. Pink is my signature color. And I’ll be damned if someone else took this fabulous pink trinket from me.”[/color] Ryan responded. [color=pink]“I could make this into a beautiful pair of earrings. Just look how it sparkles!”[/color]

As Eddie suggested taking the crystals to Professor Cranston, Ryan sighed but didn’t protest. [color=pink]“If it helps us figure out what these are, then I suppose it’s worth it. Besides, maybe he’ll have some insight into their… fashion potential.” [/color] He smirked, giving his crystal a playful twirl in his fingers.
