[He pauses because of that last bit, and then he goes on softly.]

Well... You couldn't find better material than that anywhere! Everything I hear about my mom says that she was so kind and caring and courageous. She cared for every living thing, no matter how icky, and she wanted to help heal all the gems that had gotten turned into monsters.

...But, she had to fight gems too. She turned on her on Homeworld to save Earth because she loved Earth and didn't want it to get ruined by Homeworld's plans. And it was long and it was difficult and I only know a few parts but they won.

That was all a long time before she met my dad. And then, when she was getting ready to give birth to me, she made a tape for me. Just for me! [His joy quickly fades, though.] Be-because... because... she knew she wouldn't be around to see me.

In it, she told me about how great life on Earth was. And how great it would be that I'd get to be a human being. And that she'd become... part of me. Even though I never knew her, it's almost like I did. Because she said that - that... every time I feel happy, that's her loving me and loving being me.

[He sniffles.]

That's... that's my mom for you.
