"How many thousands of years ago?" Pesrl asked slowly. If it was more than 6,000, she must not know about the war.

"Three or four thousand, I guess. But I've always lived alone as a wanderer, anyway, so it didn't really make a difference," Diamond responded. She wondered why they were asking so many questions, but dismissed the thought.

So she had to have known about the war... She seemed pretty innocent though, maybe she's lived under a rock? But she didn't look that powerful, she wouldve possibly been taken as a slave. What should they ask? What she was really doing? If she knew who they were? Thinking hard, Pearl suddenly remembered a name she's heard a Homeworld Gem use not too long ago. "Do you have any affliction with Yellow Diamond?"

"She's my sister....." Diamond rolled her eyes. "I last saw her around 11,000 years ago. We don't really get along. She's probably looking for me, though."

"Bro! That was way before the war!" Amethyst blurted out, then felt Pearl eyes burn holes into the back of her head. She probably just made a mistake.

"There was a war? Oh, over those human-things, right? I think I heard a little about that...." Diamond looked over her spacecraft, making a mental list of all the repairs it needed.

"XKeep an eye on her," Pearl told Amethyst. She dragged Garnet aside. "What should we do?!"

Garnet shrugged. "Well, she's not doing anything harmful right now. I say we wait and see." Diamond glanced at Amethyst. "I can take care of myself, you know...."

"We need to find out what she knows without telling her too much. And we can't let her off the planet!" Pearl paused. "Actually... I guess it doesn't matter, now that they already know we're here."
Amethyst ignored that. She decided to make small talk to keep this Gem from doing anything fishy. "So you're gem's clear? Cool, the only other clear Gem I've ever seen was Crystal. What are you?"

"I don't think she's going anywhere soon," Garnet said, nodding to the wrecked spacecraft. Diamond shrugged. "Just a regular, plain old diamond. I'm not special like Yellow Diamond or any of the other diamonds I've seen. I guess that's why I ran away."

"What's wrong with just be'n a diamond?" Amethyst didn't really mean that as encouragement, mostly curiosity.
"So... Should we, should we talk to her? Invite her to stay with us?"

"They always made fun of me for it. They said I wasn't strong enough, because I haven't summoned my weapon yet," Diamond explained, "I just haven't been in a situation where I felt like I needed it."
"Yeah. It'd be best if we could make friends with her. Perhaps she would even fight alongside us against Homeworld."

"That's stupid. I didn't even summon my weapon 'til after Ro-ooooooh, -ecently! And uh, I heard Pearl didn't discover her's for a while either."
"I'm not so sure about that." To Pearl, that was just extremely wistful thinking. "But we need to keep our eyes on her."

"I just don't think it's needed. I mean, why fight and waste energy when you could just talk it out?" Diamond managed to salvage a few parts from her spacecraft and used them to fix her watch. This time, the display popped up with a map. "Earth? That's not right. Where are those human-things?"
Garnet smiled. "Alright, she can stay with us. But she sleeps on the couch."

"NO possible way I'm leaving her that close to Steven! There is a perfectly nice room under the beach house!" By 'perfectly nice room' she meant the dark, damp area under the house. "Oh, we'd have to move the light canons though,"
"Over there." She motioned past their house towards the twin, although you couldn't really see it from where they stood. "Well, talk'n it out's fine, unless you've got a monster that doesn't know how to talk, or some space thug that'll seal you in your gem before you can get a word out. In those cases, WHA-POW!" She cracked her whip and posed.
