video; un: peridot

[runningjoke]

[The video turns on, and this individual here is… very green. Neon green, even. And with a stone embedded in her forehead, very similarly to another person who posted once before. However, unlike Pearl, Peridot's voice is less melodic, and more… nasally. She doesn't sound happy, either.]

Hello humans.

[Sigh.]

And whatever else is here.

It seems somehow, ALASTAIR has sent me something from my home world. If only they could spend their time on sending me back instead of bringing things here I don't need.

[And with that, Peridot looks off screen, reaches for something, and places a weird orb with legs out in front of the video feed she's set up. It takes a few steps to settle itself, and then remains still again.]

This is a flask robonoid. It's purpose is … useless here. It's really just useless.

The only reason I'm showing it to any of you at all is so that if you see it around, it isn't a threat. I should just destroy it so that it doesn't get in the way, but …

[She kind of wants it around. It reminds her of a simpler time, when she wasn't stuck on a foreign planet. Instead, she just flicks at the Robonoid with a "finger" of hers, and a pool of liquid inside of it splashes around before it finds equilibrium again.]

… Just let it walk around.

I've decided...

That there isn't a point in fighting you, Steven. You're more useful as a ... temporary ally.

[That doesn't mean she isn't going to complain, yell, maybe scream, probably cry, definitely argue though.]

This only applies to you though. And...

Maybe one other person. But that's it.

[jamminshield]

Yay! I'm so glad!

[His excitement quickly shifts into a teasing grin.]

Admit it, you liiiike us!

Who's the other person? Ooh ooh, is it Pearl?!

'I-it's not like I wanted to subscribe to you or anything, baka!'

[jamminshield]

sjdflkjh

[runningjoke]

NYEH!!!!!

[She blows a raspberry back, but much more angrily and aggressively.]

[jamminshield]

BWEHH!! [Now he just makes a silly attempt a mocking face.]

[runningjoke]

[Peridot squishes her face together, and then pulls up her nose-]

LOOK AT ME, I'M STEVEN AND I LOOK DUMB!!

[jamminshield]

[Steven pulls tugs down at his chin with one hand and his eye with another hand while suppressing a mass of giggles.]

NO, LOOK AT MEEE! I'M PERIDOT, AND I'M MORE FRIENDLY WITH OTHERS THAN I LOOK! STEVEN'S MY NEW BEST FRIEND!

[runningjoke]

THAT'S NOT WHAT I SOUND LIKE AT ALL!!

[ which is??? the point?????? she literally just did it??? ]

You're not my best friend!! I don't- shut up!!

[jamminshield]

[Steven guffaws.]

I don't know, Peridot, it sounds pretty right to me!

[runningjoke]

Shut up shut up shut up shut up!!!

[jamminshield]

Sorry, I was too busy telling the truth!

[runningjoke]

NOTHING BUT LIES HAVE LEFT YOUR ORAL CAVITY!!

[jamminshield]

But I don't see any cavities at all! See?

[He shows off a shining smile.]

[runningjoke]

You do, all over your face.

[CAVITY MEANS HOLE!!!]

[jamminshield]

That's not very nice...!

[He only thinks of it in terms of teeth!!]

[runningjoke]

But it's true. You have one here-

[And she points to her own mouth.]

And two here-

[Aka, the nose]

And then two more for your vision spheres.

[jamminshield]

Oh! You mean face holes...

Wait, what did you call my eyes?
