I bought the biggest cage they had and brought it home. the lapeep actually fell asleep in my limb enhancer on the way back, to my hand’s relief.



Taking the gems off the frame got easier as more and more reformed. It didn’t take long for all 100 of them to fill the cage. It was very apparent that despite my efforts even this was far too cramped.

I couldn’t keep them in here. I sent out an assistance request to homeworld as soon as I could.



mom sent a pearl. maybe the others were busy?

[YP] Are those Lapis Lazuli gems? They look rather atypical. Where did they come from? I wasn’t aware of the presence of any other Lazuli gems on earth.

[Peri] Lapis Lazuli….? Oh uh, yeah, i think so, i have no idea where they came fro- [YP] Where did you find them? Typical lazuli gems don’t emerge that small from our kindergarten systems. I am suspicious of their origins. [Peri] All 100 were embedded onto a mirror frame. Yellow Diamond sent someone to purchase it to furnish the house but it had never displayed gem-powered properties. It seemed to be… primarily decorative, like natural earth minerals the humans use. I have no idea why they were on there. [YP] Shall I receive permission to take them off your hands? I am sure they could be of some use to the homeworld. Mysterious gems like these have no purpose on a sparsely gem-colonized planet. [Peri] I have been keeping a good eye on them myself. Currently they are contained safely in my room and have yet to display any dangerous qualities. I have been taking notes on their behaviors and ask only for an expansion of their living space if I will be allowed to keep them in my care. I hope Yellow Diamond can trust they are in good hands. [YP] I see. well, I will relay your request on my return.



The response said to be aware of the implications of caring for undocumented gems. as long as I am safe and my normal duties are not affected by any degree, I was allowed to continue under supervision.

and that the smaller house next door was purchased and mine to use.



Well first, I never bothered to let Jasper know. she could figure it out herself.

Mom never gave me any information about the peeps, but at least I found out their gem type though the previous conversation.

I’m assuming this must mean they aren’t anything too out of the ordinary, at least to her vast knowledge. but that still doesn’t help me.



The pearl relayed the message well enough that it seemed the rest all worked out. mom sure pulled through!

I’m disappointed she didn’t give much beyond my request. Yellow Diamond surely would know SOMETHING about the lapeeps.

If part of my request was for more information about them, I probably would’ve had to present the research I kinda lied about having yet on the spot anyway.

sure inspired me to start, though.
