    "Interesting..." she mused, still mulling over her ship. Getting the pod fixed would be hard. She didn't think Earth had the sort of tech she needed, and in order to make it she would have to find metal somewhere. Some tools would help to. The parts needed to even attempt to fix it were too complex to simply melt and form into the needed shape. Aella's tapping distracted Topaz. She glanced at the human.


    "It's not much to see inside but if you really want to have at it." she said, before peering back into gash and trying to remember what exactly was damaged. She pulled out some half shredded chunks of metal and a few torn wires. "Is there metal around here?" Earth metal was probably different than her pod, but it could work as a temporary substitute. Anything was better than being stranded if the Homeworld gems came after her.

    (That definitely feels like something she would do. That also got me thinking abt the crystal gems and i feel like amethyst would probably love bubble gum. i cant recall if they ever show her chewing any but i bet she would love getting as many pieces as possible and chewing them and blowing huge bubbles)


    Topaz had a thousand and ones questions. The longer she stuck around and thought about it and listened, the more curious she became. She knew only a very little bit about Earth. Of course, she knew the Homeworld tried to conquer it a long time ago. And she knew the infamous Crystal Gems stopped them. She had used the homeworld databases to do some research on Earth, but now that she was here, she wanted to know more. What were cars like? And the human cities?


    Topaz frowned and crossed her arms over her chest. "Told you, my name is Topaz." Maybe she shouldn't have called herself an alien in the first place. "And can you show me where to get some kind of metal? I need it to try and repair my pod." And she wanted to see more of Earth. She wondered if this "coast" was anywhere near where the crystal gems were.

    (oh boy. i can see her trying to blow gigantic bubble and it pops and its everywhere and Pearl its like "AMETHYST"
    and who says im keeping it light >:D . just kidding tbh. its too early for murder just yet. tho that reminds me of this vague plotline i have been thinking about for AgES.)


    Topaz could only assume noon wasn't too far off. She didn't remember all the measurements of time that humans used, but she did remember basics. Day and nights were usually somewhat equal length, and noon was the middle of the day. In fact, it wasn't that different from a few other planets. All the directions didn't make sense to her, but she wasn't very concerned. At least she could hopefully fix her ship, and see more of Earth.


    "What are Z's?" she asked, tilting her head to the side. "Food or something?" she had see plenty of earth creatures. Maybe one of them was a 'z', whatever that was. "And I'll follow you, I suppose. Unless there are any other humans that might find my ship." she hadn't seen any humans, and she got the impression that Aella lived far away from most people.

    Sleep. That made sense. Plenty of life forms she'd encountered needed some sort of rest. As gem, she didn't of course, but she knew of a few oddball gems that still slept or napped. Personally, Topaz saw it as a waste of time. She'd rather explore than sleep, or do anything else.


    "If my ship won't be disturbed, then I guess I can head back with you." she followed after Aella, taking in the sights. She wondered what the forest looked like from above. One of the planets she remembered used to have large trees, although they weren't green and they looked different than Earth's trees. "How long have you lived here?" she asked.


    (Is never to late for murder.)

    (See? Murder)


    Topaz watched the human, feeling puzzled. She shrugged. "Okay then." she murmured. Aella's reply was puzzling, and if she wasn't more concerned about other matters, she would have pressed the matter and found an answer. She pushed the thought aside and glanced around. There was time to explore, but she wasn't really sure which way to head.


    Scanning the area, she dropped onto a branch below the shelter and sat, her legs dangling over the edge. For a few minutes, she watched the forest. Far below, she spotted dark furred four legged beast. Some sort of cat, although she didn't know the exact name. After a moment, she shapeshifted into it and leaped into a nearby tree. The branch shook under her weight but soon steadied. She made her way to the forest floor and prowled the shadows, keeping an eye out for anything interesting.


    Topaz explored the surrounding forest for some time before she started to head back for the shelter. She didn't make it far before she tripped over something. Scowling she turned to see what it was. Half buried in the earth was a crumbled piece of stone with part of a symbol etched on it. She couldn't make it out well, but she recognized it as gem symbols. Interesting. SHifting into a bird, she quickly flew back to the shelter.
    "Aella." she said loudly, crossing her arms and leaning on the wall.


    (I got this idea for a new gem and she's Citrine and she's homeworld aligned [for now] and shes cool. i think he main role is as a pilot, and idk her weapon yet but her gem is citrine. She's charismatic and intelligent and fierce and super determined and ye i gotta figure more details out)

    (I didn't think abt that but i could. and if that happens u should bring obsidian in the plot at some point)


    Topaz frowned and looked outside. She couldn't see the sun, but she could guess where it was. Probably just before noon, by her estimate. "Yeah, pretty much." she said. Topaz was far more interested in the fact that gems had been in this forest at some point.
    "Ever see anything weird here?" Maybe there was something around from when Homeworld attacked so long ago. Maybe even something useful. She knew they lost a lot of weapons and other items in general. If there were more gem stuff, she could use it.
    "And hurry up. We should get going."


    (TBH i cant lie kuvira heavily inspired citrine i picture her personality kinda like kuvira???

    (She sounds really cool?? I really feel that, as dedicated as she is to her current job/mission, Citrine doesn't feel super like, loyal to Homeworld or the cause and she rarely gets up close bc she's piloting or smth. Like I feel for now she's kinda following orders but she could turn too, if she had reason? buts she way more gray moralityish and neutral than Topaz, who would totes join the Crystal Gems. Also maybe Obsidian and Citrine could kinda know each other like maybe Ob fixes Citrines ship sometimes???)


    She watched Aella pack the food and water away. "I don't eat. Gems don't need food or water." she shrugged and picked up a fruit. "Seems weird to me." she said as she eyed the colorful object. Well, technically some gems she knew ate food from other alien planets. The homeworld didn't have much in the way of food, but some gems still had it brought in. Not that she ever joined them.


    "Nothing else? Strange creatures or unusual objects?" she hoped to find something, even scraps to collect and take with her. In her travels, she had amassed a collection of objects from other planets.

    (That would b cool. not sure how well they'd get along yet, depends but ia m down for this so much. Which also makes me think a couple things. 1, what did topaz do before she defected??? i think she was more involved, probably a warrior of some kind??? also now im imagining a sort of star treky situation where a small group of defector gems go around in their spaceship causing trouble and getting into trouble and helping out other aliens like how sick would that be?
    Also im really liking obsidian so far )



    Topaz glared at Aella and muttered "My name is Topaz," under her breath. She followed her, pausing to shut the flap before following her out. She dropped nimbly to the ground. "Whatever you say, human girl. So which way are we headed?" she asked, smirking. If Aella wanted to call her 'Alien girl', she saw no reason not to call Aella 'human girl'.


    "And for the record, your planet has similarities to others. Not everything is weird, just some of it." She said pointedly.

    Topaz followed behind, unfazed by the underbrush. Getting through the foliage became a nuisance pretty quickly, so she shifted into a lizard and followed after Aella. Granted, there was a slight chance some creature might attack her, but even if that happened, she wasn't very worried.


    "Well its big." she said after a few moments thought. "Without a good ship it takes awhile to get places." She paused again. A large portion of her life had been spent in space, so she hadn't given it much thought. It was normal to her. "And there's a lot of different planets. Different creatures and such." She decided it wouldn't be a good idea to admit why she had been to so many planets. She didn't think the human girl would be too happy about it. "What about Earth? How do you like it?"

    Topaz considered for a moment before scuttling up Aella's arm. it certainly made things easier, not have to keep an eye out for any birds or creatures of the earth that would try and eat her. She found a spot on the girls shoulder that was relatively comfortable and settled in, feeling fairly content.


    "What's wrong with planes? I think they're great." She wasn't exactly an ace pilot, like some gems she knew, but she'd always loved the feeling of piloting a ship. As long as someone wasn't trying to shoot her out of the sky. Although it was definitely a rush.

    ( AhhHhghgHgHG i literally completely forgot abt this thread im so sorry. School started a while back, plus i got my first job. but im still up to continue if u r)


    "Oh uh..." she hadn't really thought about it. She just transformed when she needed to. "Well all of my kind can transform. And... I don't know where it goes-" she paused, tilting her head to the side in thought. I don't think it really works how your scientist or whatever describes it." Topaz scuttled off Aella's shoulder and shifted into a bird. She landed back on the girl's shoulder.
    "I don't know exactly what humans are made of but my sort are different. We're like light, I guess you could call it." she frowned internally, trying to decide how to explain it. "Like a projection or hologram." She shifted back into a lizard. It occurred that perhaps she shouldn't give away too many details about her race, or about anything in general, but she didn't think this human posed a threat.

    { YYyeee its been so long. i miss my old characters horribly}


    A voice pierced through the murky haze of Cody's mind, and he struggled to drag himself into consciousness. He felt cold and tired. Some instinct inside him was screaming danger, but it seemed so far off. A sudden overwhelming desire to slip into the wonderful abyss of sleep flooded through him. Perhaps he could deal with any problems later.


    No. He needed to get up, now.


    He shifted slightly and pain spiked through his abdomen, and he groaned. Why did it hurt so bad? Usually, he healed quickly. Slowly, he opened his eyes. He looked about through blurry vision and noticed a figure crouched over him. It took a few moments for his vision to come into focus, but he recognized her. Al-something. Alexis. He stared at her in muddled confusion.
    "What are you doing here?" he looked down at his blood soaked t-shirt. "What the heck happened?"

    (I keep... forgetting. AhhHhhg school is very busying. I can't wait til I finish in December}


    Topaz cocked her head and stared at the human. Were all humans like this? Most of her kind never asked so many questions. Then again, to be fair, she had asked plenty about the human world. I came with being an alien, she supposed.


    "Well," She closed her mouth and fidgeted agitatedly. She had never thought about that before. "I... I don't know. I don't even know if one of my feathers could be plucked. I guess it would just poof into thin air?" Topaz shook her head. "Do all of your species ask such strange questions?"
    (OK BUT THATS A Good question LIKE???? WOW IDK)

    (I just realized that. i was posting from my phoe so it defaulted to my main account. I just realize lots of my charcaters arelike??? still older then m tho wow. )


    Cody grimaced. He could probably cause himself to bleed to death before he got the bullet out, but the idea of going to someone else made him nervous. What if they figured something out? A silver bullet was hardly typical. If they thought he was something else, what if they simply tried to finish the job? He examined the wound again. Definitely not something he could handle.


    "I don't know..." he contemplated. The few people he knew that might be able to help him were nowhere near here. It didn't seem like he had much choice. "Fine." he muttered. "But she better be trustworthy."

    (I think?? like one?? couldnt sworn i remember times when they would drop theris and it would disappear?? IKDKKK)


    Topaz stared at the small boat warily. It didn't look very sound. On her planet, things were usually constructed much better. Then again, it wasn't as if the girl had good materials to work with.
    "Are you sure this device is...sturdy?" she said as Aella stepped in. The boat looked so thin and frail. She wouldn't have ben surprised if it sprung a leak and sank on the spot. It wouldn't be an issue for her, since she could fly away, but the human would probably get wet.


    "Plus, this device is awfully slow." she added, eyeing the boat. "You should get something faster." Slow was boring. Even at home, she had altered her personal ship to make it faster.

    I haven't done this in ages but this looks like fun so...


    (If the powers seem much, I can dial back. I tried to give her weaknesses and such to balance it out but I can totally change stuff.)


    Also I work today, so I probably won't be able to post more until later tonight.



    P.S. Sorry about the weird username, I haven't used this account in a bit so I have to fix that... It's supposed to read 'The Ninth Doctor' but you can call me Nine

    Light Thank you! I'm very excited for this.
    What if the Titans need to find like, one particular Siren? Like the "first" Siren that spawned all other Siren's, and thus is very powerful. Strong enough even to control a god. The caveat is, in order to subdue an unwilling subject, especially a god, they would need to have time, because the process isn't easy. Perhaps they kidnapped Hermes either because
    A)he discovered their plot or
    B)because they think he know's where to find the first Siren
    C)They want him to carry the 'Siren's Song' across the world?


    Being Demigod's they are somewhat harder to fully hypnotize than a human, so there is still time to save infected ones, but many of their ranks are being snatched from quests and even from the Camp?
    So perhaps the 8 need to find either a magic object or creature who can break the spell, like you said. This object/creature could even be located in the labyrinth?
    For instance, perhaps a powerful demigod acquired an item that can break spells like that, but he got lost in the labrynth, and the item presumably still rests with his body.
    Or, when the Gods realized the strength and power of the first Siren, they created a 'counter', perhaps some kind of beast whose cry can break the spell. Maybe even a canine creature, which could tie in with Esteri?


    Just thoughts. I hope that wasn't too confusing. Also, this website works on my school computer. Yay!!
