Joys and sadness

I just stood there and engaged in my anime thinking time and reacting to White's statement. My sisters are going to be born tomorrow meaning Homeworld and the universe will soon have a war mongering Yellow, an emotional Blue, and a rebellious Pink. I feel like I'm introducing a boy/girl band.

With White being our manager and me being the all around badass that everyone likes and has the best looks.*Smug smile* Yeah that sounds about right.

Jokes aside I should probably up my training and practice of my powers more or is that even possible? I learned a lot over the past twenty days and I mean a lot it was easy considering I don't need sleep, but there is definitely room to grow. I'll do so regardless but this is definity a trigger to something big coming up.

Slowing down my thoughts I answer White in an enthusiastic tone with a blossoming smile.

"That's amazing White! Soon we will have more company to keep us on the way. I can't wait to meet them, so what are their names?"

She seems to have relaxed a little in my presence as she lowered her arms and formed her fingers into a diamond shape and spoke.

"Now I know we're both excited Black but remember, we must show a strong front in the presence of others."

I know what's happening, this is the beginning of the whole being perfect scenario and now would probably be a good time to set my stance and so I speak in a calm tone.

"True, but then again who are they to think less of us for how we behave." I say that last part with my head slightly tilted forward to the right with a smirk forming on my black lips.

She widens her eyes at my statement and lets out a soft giggle as she says.

"True, I didn't see it from that perspective and I guess what you say makes sense. For your earlier question they would be called by a Diamond name, but we'll have to see about their colours. Although there is that one planet..." She trails off

"What about it?"

"It was the one with the least probability of creating a Diamond, so you can imagine my surprise when the readings showed the Gem forming on this one instead of the others. Also when the Gem began to form on this planet the other planets I selected stopped forming Diamonds and died."

Is this some form of universal limit or law? Did nature decide to give the Gem race its limit through this necessity of resources and the amount of Diamond that can exist? Peridot, Amethyst, and probably others suffered from the lack of resources that put a limit to their potential.

Maybe I only exist as Black Diamond because I have a soul outside of this universe and therefore am not restricted by its laws. I am a foregin species that is introduced into the environment and it does not take that into account as it follows the original path. Maybe that is why Pink is still born even after there are already four Diamonds, since she is the runt of the litter.

From the information stated on the show it seemed to focus more on the Gem hierarchy than space. So are we like the empire? We exist and give little to no opportunity for other power forces to form across space. All of this does seem to correspond with the Fallen's theory of evolution which was decided by experience.

Species grow and adapt through the need of survival and the availability of resources. There was a power vacuum that the Gems filled when the Fallen were erased and they used the resources to grow themselves and inhibit other species.

But overall Gems are overpowered as a species, we have no need for biological necessities, we can function the second we are formed, we have powers that help us manipulate/dominate the universe, and we can survive anywhere. This does not even take into account how society and technology evolves and becomes stronger over time.

There is some stuff I missed, but ya get it right? We're OP.

I would say the only real weakness that all Gems share is the inability to stay formed while travelling at the speed of light. A weakness we patch up and one I intend to fix permanently.

Bringing myself out of my philosophical thoughts I respond to White.

"Strange must be something we're not seeing, but we should be okay with the five of us."

Like I said we're already over powered.

White takes some time to think about before finally agreeing.

"True and more than five would be too much anyhow. For us Diamonds we should take quality over quantity anyway." Her voice carries a trace of sadness and she looks down.

Must be hard for her, she sees us like sisters while she is more like our mother and so she must have felt the same kind of pain when the other planets stopped the forming of our other Diamond siblings. They died in the "womb" and no one else is ever going to understand what she went through. Probably why she took Pink's death so hard.

I hesitate for a second before I wrap my arms around her shoulders and give her a hug. This is strange isn't it? I am hugging an intergalactic warlord and possibly one of the universes greatest powerhouses out of empathy of the loss of family. I lived a life into adulthood and experienced the life of someone who lost everything and lived for revenge. I should know that this is a part of life and should accept it, but today I lost what could have been family and she did too. I spoke in a calm, comforting voice.

"It's okay, don't think of today as losing but gaining more of us."

She seems stunned at this unfamiliar gesture of love and slowly hugs me back and we stay there while Pearl waits outside as I instructed when White came. I didn't know it but there was a slight shade of Pink in White face as she hugged me and she was too caught up in the moment to realize it.

It quickly faded as we pulled apart and this small change would not be noticed for what seems like eons, but its effects would only be shown in time.

White puts a fist in front of her face and clears her throat and speaks.

"Thank you Black and sorry I haven't been visiting you much over this period of time. I just wanted you to have time to adjust. Anyway I will form a Bubble for you and bring you to ship tomorrow when the sun rises so be ready and on this occasion don't bring your Pearl."

I was about to respond when she formed a bubble and phased through the wall and left. I summoned Pearl and told her of the event tomorrow and she seems a bit disappointed but I place my finger on her head and patted it.

THAT'S RIGHT HEADPATS!!! The greatest weapon in anime that ties with the legendary Talk-no jutsu and for good reasons as well. It helped to up her mood and caused her to have her grey blush while bringing a smile to my face.

I then stood up and thought about what I should do for my face. I can't go into the minds of every Gem and alter them to be okay with it. I'm not that strong with my powers yet and I don't want to add it to the Homeworld juice because it's nice to see their reactions. I also want to be mysterious for weeb reasons so it looks like I have work to do.
