It was... unusual for Garnet to send Pearl on missions alone, but she’d assured her that this one was nothing that required assistance. A new group of Gems had landed on Earth but showed no signs of being hostile, or... even particularly active, mostly keeping to themselves in the woods. Nonetheless, the Crystal Gems still wanted to get in contact with them to make sure of their intentions and the consequences of any hostile actions.

Which was why Pearl approached the camp on her own, head held high and pushed aside the branches to look for the Sapphire supposedly in charge.

And instead met the eyes of someone she hadn’t seen in thousands of years.

Stringed Fate // Closed Soulmate AU {Alissa}

With @batchofdefects from here

Alissa had been working in the back of the shop when she noticed that the pull on her string was tighter and the string itself was a bit brighter. She finished putting the different muffins in the oven and decided to go ahead and take her break. She grabbed her bag from the break room and went out into the front of the store, sitting at a table and pulling out her stuff for lunch that she had brought. She observed the string tied to her ring finger, and smiled softly at the fact that it was still there.

Siege of war

@batchofdefects

Connor waited outside the cantina for his friend and partner Aryn to come back out with information that could be useful to put an end to the Empire. With so much at stake and the Rebellion being put under so much pressure Time was of the essence. Looking around he was the look out for any incoming imperial stormtroopers.

[corruptedwhitegem]

"Where the... hell am I?" Aryn asked to herself, pushing herself to her feet and looking around the clearing she had awoken in. Spotting someone else laying nearby, the hybrid walked over to them and gasped in shock when she saw who it was. "Wh- how the- mom?!" (batchofdefects hybrid aryn)

{ @batchofdefects }

Quartz didn’t really know where she was, but that’d become common enough recently that she just prayed the grass hadn’t stained her shirt and closed her eyes again. This was a nice place, maybe she could…

She jolted when she heard a familiar (though not too familiar) voice above her. Her eyes snapped open and she sat up in the grass, scooting backward. “W-who –” she began.

Upon getting a good look at her meadow-mate, she froze and whispered, “You look like my daughter.”

batchofdefects liked for a starter

Kimberlite was hanging on the rafters of the Diamond Palace, her leafy green hair hanging round her face. 

“Soooo duuulll today.” She muttered. 

She looked below her at the walkways of the Palace. She shuffled along the rafters, poking a few Gems on the shoulder as they passed her by.

"C-Carnelian! Poppy! You're back!" (batchofdefects, aqua)

((*scribbles out aqua and writes aryn*))

{ @batchofdefects }

Poppy knelt to let Carnelian down. “Yep! How’re the geodes doing?” Carnelian greeted.

“We’re a little late, I’m sorry,” Poppy said, brushing her hair back. “We might’ve gotten carried away on the walk.”

[niphuial]

Pip pouted, enclosing her wings around herself to look cuter. "But Aryyn, please? I even went and got you your favorite food when I snuck out this morning!! I promise I won't hurt the babies, I'll be good!!"

Tiger: It's funny how we all sleep differently.

Tiger: I sleep on my side.

Tiger: My pearl sleeps on her back.

Tiger: My Diamond sleeps with everybody, including me.

Fated Hardships

@batchofdefects

It seemed like a normal rotation at the station, everyone was hard at work and making sure everything left on time. Toffee, one of the station directors was in her personal quarters sleeping. She and her wife Cal had been working huge overtime, having little time to themselves or each other. Meanwhile in one of the many control rooms one of the peridots looked at her screen with worry and curiosity. Looking away from her screen she looked up to the outside window, it was then she saw very very large unknown ships came out of hyperspace. The Peridot then hurried and sounded the alarm, this caused everyone to start panicking. Hearing the alarm Toffee woke up in a jolt and looked outside the window to see what the fuss was about. “ Oh no...”

"Pearl, can I speak to you please?" (batchofdefects, aquamarine) ((earth))

{ @batchofdefects }

Pearl couldn’t ignore the shiver that went down her spine when she heard the phrase, an old relic from her time on Homeworld, but she could pretend it hadn’t happened. With the calmest voice she could muster, she replied only, “Of course.”

Training Days

@batchofdefects Captain Obsidian Diamond has been in the hanger bay working on his X-Wing. It was a few hours later when he got the call to come into the briefing center. Getting up he made his way there, once inside he saw Commander Tristan talking to whom seems like a new recruit.

[corruptedwhitegem]

The newly emerged gem brushed some stone dust off herself before looking up, locking eyes with the other blue gem. "... Hi." She said lamely. (batchofdefects, war aqua to river)

{ @batchofdefects }

Celestine looked down from her perch at the new Gem, smiling. “Hello there,” she said, fluttering her wings. “You feelin’ alright? No bumps or chips?”

[smugxscientific]

Calcite gave a bow and quickly led Aryn out of the Diamond's chamber before she could change her mind for whatever reason. She only calmed down when they were outside the building, grinning confidently as she slowed to a stop. “I can't believe that worked! Good job, Lazuli! How about as reward, I give you one of the two new pearls. After all, it's not unusual for a powerful Lapis Lazuli to have at least one of them.”

"I am very busy right now, Calcite, so whatever you have to show me, do it quickly." (batchofdefects, Yellow Diamond)

“Of course, Yellow Diamond.“ She gave a quick salute before pulling the human she had brought with her closer to the Diamond for her to get a better look at her. “I’ve come to show you my last project that I’ve been working on. This hybridized human is the result.“

"Pearl, would you like to go on a short walk with me?" (batchofdefects, rose)

{ @batchofdefects }

Pearl’s eyes lit up, her hands stilling what they’d been working on. “Of course!” she said, pushing herself to her feet. “Where to, Rose?”

[corruptedwhitegem]

Banji hadn't noticed the person in front of her step forward until she felt someone bump into her from behind. The clone glanced back to apologize- and froze before staring back at the front of the coffee shop. (batchofdefects)

{ @batchofdefects }

Quartz stumbled when she bumped into the other, dazed for a second. She blinked the fuzz out of her eyes and looked up to apologize, confused when the other was pointedly looking away from her. “Oh, I-I’m sorry, I should’ve – wait.”

She studied the other’s face intently, wrinkling her eyebrows. “Aaarryynn…?” she said, as if not sure what she was seeing.
