"Gems don't need to eat. The fact that we have 'tastebuds'was an oversight. We are fully self sufficient without the need for sustenance."
Onyx shook his head. Another one, how long would it take for this one to give in

OOC:
IC: "Who cares?" Pyrite chuckled. "Just try it, it tastes good! That's the point! And if you really wanna be utilitarian about it, I already paid for it, so you can't waste it."
The sunburst sapphire glared "The fact that you payed for it does not matter. But if it will get you to stoppestering me about it then fine," she snapped. She looked down at the cup in her hand and took a drink but spit it out because it was too bitter for her "That is disgusting! Are you trying to poison me?!"
OOC:
IC: "Not like it would work," Pyrite pointed out with a light grin. She pulled out a couple packets of sugar from her pocket, popped the lid off the coffee, and poured them in. "There, it should taste better now. I didn't put anyway cream and sugar in anybody's 'cause I didn't how y'all would like it."
"I don't want anymore of it," she said about to throw it when the ruby came from behind the tree "Then may I have it ma'am," sshe asked politely. The sunburst sapphire was frozen her arm cocked back to Chuck the cup of coffee into the woods. Then she dropped the cup and sneered "You pathetic traitor, you accepted and want more of this earth filth," she asked enraged. "You are no longer worth keeping around,"she snarled summoning her daggers and lunges at the ruby but stopped short when the Onyx's scyth was suddenly around her neck.
Onyx had seen what was going on and he wouldn't let any gem fight at the moment so he had put his scyth around the big one's neck "We didn't attack you so at least I'd appreciate it if you didn't attack the little one," he said politely holding back the urge to poof the angry gem. Even in the shirt amount of time he saw the little ruby as a little sister
(Would you like to play the ruby? Or do you want to wait to play the actual sapphire that'vs still in the bubble)
OOC: idc either way, do you want to play either one more?
IC: Pyrite was very glad Onyx could react so fast, because frankly she'd been spooked by the sudden hostility. She'd never been very good in a fight against other people. Animals and Gem creatures were easy, but she hadn't grown up handling fighty people. When her brain caught up to everything, she glanced at the Ruby to make sure she was okay. "Y'all are crazy," she muttered, still surprised the Gems were so willing to fight at the drop of a hat. She wished Ammonite were here so she could tie the red one to a tree.
OOC: Ill let tou play ruby so that i can olay am idea that i have for the regular sapphire
Onyx made the Sunburst Sapphire sir much to the other gem's reluctance. "Now. Someone here needs an apology and it isn't the tall people," he said. The sunburst sapphire glared at the ruby "Apologies," she growled
OOC: ok, though idk how well I'll do
IC: The Ruby just kind of averted her eyes. "It's fine, ma'am."
Pyrite leaned over to look the sunburst sapphire in the face thoughtfully.
"Need something defect,"the sunburst asked once the scyth wasn't pressed against her thtoat
OOC:
IC: "You're sad, hunh?" Pyrite asked, all but ignoring the insult.
"No. I'm furious. Enraged. If the Onyx wasn't so fast I'd happily poof you," she threatened
Onyx checked the last bubble to see if it wasn't weakening and saw something that didn't look good. "Um, girls.... the other little one is cracked," he said holding the bubble for the other three to see
OOC:
IC: Pyrite was going to reply, but Onyx's response made her wheel around. "Really?" Guess they had to go see Ammonite after all...
At the comment all fire left Burst and she visually dimmed in worry. She may have been a cold ruthless gem but she still worried about her subordinates. "May...may I hold her," she asked
Onyx nodded and carefully handed the bubble over to the gem. He didn't want the bubble to pop because for all they knew the bubble was the only thing keeping the sapphire from shattering. As soon as Burst had the bubble, she carefully cradled it close which made Onyx smile.
OOC:
IC: The Ruby peeked out again, somewhat worried for her crewmate.
Pyrite frowned and knelt to be eye-level with the red sapphire. "Hey, I gotta buddy who can fix that if y'all come along nicely." Alien or not, there was no reason to leave somebody hurt. And it'd be an excuse to get Ammonite's help with this mess!
Burst didn't want to put her ally at risk of shattering so she nodded and said nothing except "Thank you."
Onyx was a bit surprised to hear the gem thank Pyrite but he found himself smiling
OOC:
IC: Pyrite straightened and shouldered her bag again. Welp, there went her hike up the mountain. "Any of y'all know where the closest warp is?"
Onyx was about to ask how Pyrire knew about warps when Burst spoke "Follow me," she said as she stood and began walking north east "It's about an hours walk."
OOC:
IC: "Gross," Pyrite muttered, but grabbed the Ruby by the scruff and started after her. She tucked her pistol in her waistband again.
Burst didn't react to the comment and continued walking towards the warp pad
Onyx watched Burst from Pyrite's side "So. Her attitude changed quickly huh," he asked quietly
OOC:
IC: "Course, her charge's hurt," Pyrite replied easily, giving him a surprised look. The Ruby just crossed her arms grumpily.
