seeking???

[defective_pearl]

Now, Mun, I'm flattered that you chose me. Really, I couldn't be happier at being considered for a place in your ...interesting, if somewhat cluttered, headspace.

However, I think you need to think harder about the options that are available. To that end, I've compiled a list of the types of [airquote fingers] "games" that are out there.

[she raises her hands to activate her gem, and a moment later, a chart appears, perhaps not as detailed as she'd like, but it gets the point across]

There are predominantly two types of "games" available... Horror Games, which neither you nor I are interested in and quote unquote "sex" games which haha noooo. While I'm sure humans love their messy procreational activities, I certainly would not. In any capacity.

[the chart appears in a wave of sparkles]

Therefore I think it's best all around if you just leave me where I'm at. After all, I'm far different from your usual sort of...character... and I'm not even from the same "canon". I don't even really know what you see in that canon to be honest. Everyone is so ridiculous. And that boy eats far too much than is healthy for anyone.

Yeah it's probably for the best. You wouldn't be able to handle either of those games.

Much too delicate. Better leave you alone to gather dust.

[defective_pearl]

I do not gather dust, Amethyst. [honestly!] I am clean, thank you very much. The same can't be said for anything of yours.

[if only Amethyst would let her tidy up a little!]

Nor am I delicate. I'm just...sensible. You shouldn't be in any of those games either. Who knows what you might be exposed to?

[lumpyspacegem]

Oh I know right? Fun and adventure and excitement are THE WORST!

But it's cool P. I get that you're afraid. Totally natural. You just stay here where it's safe and boooooring.

[defective_pearl]

I am not afraid!

[ugh. youu!]

I have plenty of excitement and adventure just being a Crystal Gem. Which is, may I remind you, much more important work than gallivanting off into some odd world where humans should be more... [cringes a little] private.

[lumpyspacegem]

[Smirking at you so hard]

That's not what Rose thought~

[defective_pearl]

[Leave it up to Amethyst to remind her of that.

Fortunately Pearl has since learned to mostly kind of sort of block out too many lurid details because of Steven and because it was something Rose chose to do for some unfathomable reason. (Though if Pearl thought about it, she knew why. Wouldn't she do the same if she had to?)]

Yes, well, Rose was different from all of us. [and that was also why they existed to as they did.]

I've never found humans quite as fascinating as she did.

[lumpyspacegem]

Pfft, seriously no one did.

But you don't have to be a human to have that sort of fun.

[defective_pearl]

I don't want that sort of fun. I can't see any advantage to that sort of fun. I'd rather just keep doing what we are doing. Important work. Protecting the Earth.

[For Rose. For Steven. For themselves, too, she supposed. But she didn't like to think of that too closely either.]

[lumpyspacegem]

UGH! You are such a buzz kill. No wonder Garnet came to me first.

[She stretches out trying to look all casual and cool about it, but it's kind of a humble brag because Garnet is possibly the coolest being she knows]

[defective_pearl]

Garnet came to you first? [not that she's jealous or anything.] For what exactly?

It couldn't have been for anything that needed precision.

[lumpyspacegem]

[Enjoy the sound of a snort because you're not wrong and she knows it]

She was curious about that stuff that you're so afraid of. You know...getting down and dirty~

[Shape shifting into her Purple Puma form she flexes]

Big G decided she wanted to go a few rounds with the Puma and we both found out just what it was that Rose liked so much about human style!

[defective_pearl]

First of all, I told you I'm not afraid. I'm more than capable of taking on anything a game can throw at me. After all I am adaptable to a wide range of bizarre situations.

[and she took pride in that]

And I'm not sure how sparring with you helps anyone learn about what Rose liked about humans. Unless you looked like Greg when you did it.

[and that thought is almost tempting. But she really shouldn't indulge in those kinds of feelings since she didn't exactly actively completely dislike him any more]

[lumpyspacegem]

Well it only kind of started out as sparring. Then there was kissing and then...

[defective_pearl]

AMETHYST!

You can't mean that you--!

In the human way--!

Did that?!

[lumpyspacegem]

[That expression is pretty much the reason she gets up in the morning]

Yup~

[Pumping her fists in the air]

And it was AWESOME!

[defective_pearl]

[that gets a full body shudder]

There's nothing "awesome" about it! It's so messy! And probably dangerous! I suppose Garnet must have had her reasons but we gems aren't really built for that kind of thing. You should be careful and not overdo it.

[look who she was talking to. Amethyst didn't have those words in her vocabulary in that order. She couldn't even trust Garnet not to go wild because it was just another kind of fusion, wasn't it?]

[lumpyspacegem]

Aw you worry too much!

And the messy stuff is the best part!

[Shifting back to her regular form]

It's like fusion but...different.

[zetsubouchan]

Oh well. Disappointing, hmmm? That's all muns particularly do, it's best if you know that already; mostly they just...go around. Disappoint us. Try to destroy us. You know, all that same boring stuff...
