sudden burning need for a crosscanon pairing

[jetblacksocool]

Are you being serious right now? No. This is not how things happen. I've never even met the woman-- never even seen her and you're hell bent on a love connection out of thin air? No.

I believe in love. I believe in a cosmic destiny bigger than us all and things falling into place when and where they may, but this? Jellybean, this is insanity. You're a lil bit crazy, and I can respect that. I like that. But Garnet Last-name-unknown doesn't know me and I don't know her.

Please don't get your hopes up.

... Though, I really must admit The Crystal Gems is a stellar crew name. Carry on.

[ Heh. Hehehe. Hehe.

Hehe.]

[jetblacksocool]

[You better wipe that smirk off your face before someone does it for you, Kid. This isn't funny!]

Don't.

[getupandgo]

Ain't said a word, dude.

[phoenixwitch]

Eh, who knows? You might yet meet her in another life.

[jetblacksocool]

You're thinking on it, I can tell. Don't encourage her.

[jetblacksocool]

That was... surprisingly optimistic. What if I'm not done with this life? Things don't seem to end like they should around here. Curious.

[getupandgo]

Ain't done a thing! [ But you look like a doofus.]

[phoenixwitch]

Death doesn't have to be all doom and gloom and eternal rest certainly doesn't have to be dull. Things work out for everyone, one way or another.

Maybe you'll meet her yet in this life. Better?

[tothedirt]

Damn. I think you might need to aim a little lower.

[jetblacksocool]

My sights aren't set to anything but what's out on the horizon. You don't see me aiming for anything, G.

[jetblacksocool]

Yet. Not a thing just yet. [But you DO look like a doofus.] You aren't on her side, are you?

[jetblacksocool]

When do you rest, Madam Witch?

[There's the faintest smile you ever did see.] I wouldn't count it out. Maybe indeed.

[getupandgo]

C'mon, man, chill.

[ Hands in pockets, shoulders hunched, but-]

Jus'thought y'could use a ladyfriend.

[ lol look at that shitface]

[jetblacksocool]

I'm ice cold, Kid, which is a feat considering the lady behind the wheel is driving me head first into a mess I don't even need. I've got all I need already. Got my boys and a heartbeat, that's all it takes.

[It's kind of sweet, though. He smiles softly.] I'm far from lonesome, if that's what you're worried about.

[getupandgo]

I ain't sayin' otherwise, but, y'know. Ain't such a bad thing. Y'could give it a try.

[tothedirt]

Yeah, you're too busy keeping an eye on us to chase any tail.

[jetblacksocool]

I don't see that as a negative. Do you?

[tothedirt]

Look, you're like a hard-working single parent. Need some you-time once in a while, right? To ~remind you what love is~.

[jetblacksocool]

Feels more like an arranged marriage than an opportunity. Besides, all of you are missing an important fact here. There's a huge, gaping, massive hole in your plans. A fatal error, if you will. Something not one of you even though of.

Do you even know where to find this girl?

[jetblacksocool]

Me-time doesn't typically involve a blind date by gunpoint. It's not sounding too much like I have a choice in the matter.

Who says I even want to meet someone new?

[getupandgo]

[Aaaand silence.]

Fuck, dude, come on. [ WHY ARE YOU SO AGAINST THIS]

No, but. It can still happen, right? Or like. I dunno. [ you've boggled him now, jet] You can, like... find anyone else. Or something. Loosen up. Find yourself a ladyfriend and just sorta...[ the return of the weird wavy hand gestures for when he doesn't know what to say.] I'unno, see where it gets ya. I guess.

[fangool]

I'm gettin' my hopes up. We need a new mom.

[jetblacksocool]

Don't blame me when they come crashing to the ground all shattered and broken. How do we know the three of you won't scare one away?

[tothedirt]

Your heart, JJ. Your heart.

[jetblacksocool]

My heart's long been etched with the name of another. I'm not sure it's faded enough to write over it just yet.

[jetblacksocool]

[Oh, Kobra Kid, you really are a sweetheart. Jet smiles and shakes his head.]

How about a compromise? If it comes my way, I won't fight it. But as long as I'm looking out for you and the rest, I won't go looking. How's that?

[getupandgo]

Aw, come on, man. Y'don't need to be watchin' over us like mommy hen or some shit, y'know that. We can tie our shoelaces and everythin'.
[...right? Right?]

You know this shit's gonna happen.

[tothedirt]

Wait. Really?

[jetblacksocool]

[There's a faint smirk but the rest of his expression is hidden behind those shades.]

Thought you already knew. [He lightly touches his own left temple.] You know a lot of things.

[jetblacksocool]

Nothing's inevitable, KK. Fate's handed down by something bigger than all of us. As much as these muns like to believe they're bigger, they aren't in charge of our fate. It just happens.

[getupandgo]

...Jesus, dude. I know you're all about that fate stuff, but can't ya give it a try once in a while? No one's gonna force ya to build a life with this chick, but you could always have some fun.

[ let us ignore the amazing hypocrisy levels, he just wants you to be happy, mommy jet]

[tothedirt]

I don't get to pick what comes in. Besides, I try not to pick up too much from you guys, feels kinda rude. You wanna talk about it?

[phoenixwitch]

Rest? Oh no, no I can't. Not with you troublemakers jumping headfirst to their next lives. [ she's wiggling one clawed finger at you, Jet, but it's clear she's just teasing you. ] You hold in to that thought. Don't stress yourself.
