So you're telling me there's gonna be a bunch of cool monsters that AREN'T trying to beat us up? And we can KEEP them? Oh man, that is SO COOL. I'm going to catch SO MANY. Do you think the Gems will mind? Pearl doesn't seem to like animals a whole bunch, buuuuut I'm sure she'd like them if she just gave them a chance. I'll catch a special one just for her! And one for Garnet, and Amethyst, and Connie, and Lars and Sadie...

[Wait! A sudden realization.] Oh no, what if Lion gets jealous? Does he know I love him? I'll love him even if I do get a bunch of other cool superpowered animal friends. I hope they'll all get along.

It is pretty cool, isn't it? As for your friends, I'm sure they won't take it too personally. As long as you're happy and safe, right?

[cookiecats]

I dunno...they're pretty protective. If I go missing to go on a wild adventure without them, I bet they'd be pretty worried.

But I'll be fine! I'm a Crystal Gem after all!

[failnought]

[ oh god don't mention crystals that's kinda

PROBABLY IT MEANS SOMETHING DIFFERENT FOR HIM... ]

Crystal Gem?

[cookiecats]

Yeah!

[Says Steven, excitedly, pulling up his shirt to show her the gem on his tummy.]

We're the Crystal Gems! We protect the earth and fight monsters and stuff!

[failnought]

Oh!

[ Relaxing visibly at this, Serah gives him a smile. Definitely different. ]

That sounds amazing. I bet you've seen a lot of incredible things, then.

[cookiecats]

Oh, yeah. The Gems take me on all kinds of awesome, dangerous adventures!

...sometimes.

[He seems a little bummed.]

Oooor they leave me behind in Beach City. But that's not so bad! I get to hang out with Connie, and Lion, and my dad.

[failnought]

[ Being left behind... Serah can understand that. ]

Spending time with people you love is always a good thing. Does your dad know you go on these adventures?

[cookiecats]

Yeah, but he doesn't usually get involved with all the gem stuff. He's not really a "go out and save the world" kind of guy.

[Greg is a little more musically inclinded. But so is Steven! He can play a ukelele and everything!]

Slowly looks in because tempted by R29 but also scared
