[OOC] We Are the Crystal Gems

[Saarebas]

Hey guys just letting you know that I made it to the hotel just fine though I won't be able to post.

@Saarebas

I'm glad you have arrived safely

[Loony]

@Saarebas Good to know you're doing alright, Saarebas, and don't worry about not posting.

@21308 "Just about everything's bigger than me, Chromite, ma'am. Both in the literal and metaphorical sense. It's hard not to be able to give yourself up to something bigger when you're practically nothing yourself. Not that I ever don't feel like rejecting that truth, and not that I haven't tried or ever felt it was unfair, but...I can't. For a short while, yes, I can reject that. Not for too long. Maybe I can't ever understand how it's something...Special, I suppose, to someone who isn't like me or Talc, but...Just about everything is bigger than me. Reggie's bigger than me. The young ones are bigger than me. You're bigger than me. Earth is bigger than me. Homeworld is bigger than me. The ants crawling at our feet are bigger than me for the love of the sky. Even Talc was bigger than me, and we're both...We're both................................................................................................................You know. You have to know. You're from Homeworld."

*Somewhere in the distance*

"Oh my skies, they're both so stupid."

[HaltingBlooper]

What would happen if the New Gems encountered a jeweler's store?

[Loony]

@HaltingBlooper Very mixed feels.

Very mixed.

[Raijinslayer]

@HaltingBlooper A whole lot of confusion and questions, plus a healthy amount of chaos as Mars tries to free his enslaved brethren.

[Akayaofthemoon]

@Loony@HaltingBlooper

WHAT IS THIS!?!

GRAB THEM AND RUN!!!DON'T WORRY WILL WILL PROTECT YOU! WHY ARE HUMANS WEARING US!?!

IT'S SO INAPPROPRIATE!

or this...

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

LOL!

Candice would probably try and explain that the gems aren't like the Gems, and calm everyone down. She doesn't want a war to happen!

[Akayaofthemoon]

@Guardian Angel Haruki

Not a war but they would hear this!

Police! They are stealing from me!

Mayor Coss: What are you doing!? No! Wait come back! It isn't what you are thinking! They aren't aliens just stones!!

@Loony "You... needn't take things so literally. I mean a cause, Evenkite, something that's bigger than everyone. You may feel small, but if you put your powers to good use for something more than your own self-interest, you can become very great, because you'll be a part of something great.

[Kronshi]

@21308@Loony "Now Chromite, she is already a part of something great, she is Evenkite. And I'd say that's pretty great."

[Raijinslayer]

@21308Altiverse Mars:"That sounds dull and boring, to devote yourself to something that isn't even there. Seems more like an excuse to make up for the weaklings to group up with other weaklings, just to be a part of something 'more', as you put it."

Current Mars:"I believe in doing fun stuff!" *wants to be a part if the conversation, doesn't really understand the concepts being discussed*

[Kronshi]

@21308Altiverse Mars:"That sounds dull and boring, to devote yourself to something that isn't even there. Seems more like an excuse to make up for the weaklings to group up with other weaklings, just to be a part of something 'more', as you put it."

@Raijinslayer

Starting to sound a lot like Jasper.
"Fusion is just an excuse to make weak gems stronger."

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

Altiverse Candice: Just because you can't see or touch something, doesn't mean it doesn't exist as a concept.

"Fusion is just an excuse to make weak gems stronger."

@Kronshi

For the sake of the meme...

"Is this what Homeworld really thinks of fusion?"

[Raijinslayer]

@Guardian Angel Haruki"As far as I'm concerned, concepts aren't worth the air used to speak about them. They only have as much value as you put into them, and fighting because of a concept is as pointless as fighting over air."

[Loony]

@Kronshi

"You...Don't know, then. Wow. Well then. That's...surprising, to say the least. I wasn't taking things literally...I thought bringing up the ants would make that clear enough..." *She remains silent, trying to figure out how to even bring herself say the word she dreaded so, but needed not to once Bloodstone began to speak*

"...You've said this to someone before." It is simply a stated fact.

"...I can tell you've been avoiding the subject, you respond everything but her name when I bring it up, so now I'm going to ask you directly: Did you know Talc?"

[Loony]

@Raijinslayer

"Air's kind of important to us. Just saying. Otherwise we can't...you know...breathe. It's sort of a big deal, actually."

[Kronshi]

@Loony "Yes, I knew every gem that had ever set foot on Earth. I knew her quite well but she, similar to you, decided to stay out of things for the most part. I owed her some favors as well, in fact it's the main reason I never came to collect you from the Kindergarten."
