“Ooh, so you think you’re a big shot, don’tcha?” The pink lady growled, eerily coiling her body around him, as if she was a pink rubber snake.

“Most a’ those would go run n’ hide from my experience. What I think you are is a dirty lil’ bastard, playing a little game before he dies…” She sneered, pulling his head back by his hair and bringing the blade of the scythe to his neck.

Her sly expression faltered for a moment and turned to one of suspicion. She hesitated a moment before replying simply; “Spinel.”

“I’d drop the pleasantries, if I were you…as I’m not the one with a rejuvenator to their throat.”

"R-rejuvenator? A weapon? Rejuvenating things?" he snorted. Rejuvenation, from a sharp pokey scythe. Now that was trying too hard.

"Anyways, I'm Gerard. Keay. Not that Way guy, the music one? Yeah. Gerard Keay. Nice to meet you, Spinel." he said flatly. Great, no escape, and just when the thought the situation wouldn't get worse.

“Yes, a Rejuvenator. This puppy can slice through a Gem’s form in an instance…erasing their memories and resetting them to how they were made…” Spinel replied with a grin.

“Pick one name, I don’t got all day.” She ordered, tightening her grip on him slightly. “Yeah, yeah, it’s swell ta meetcha’ too, bucko. Now, like I said, no time for introductions, I’m on a tight schedule, and I’ve really gotta’ be going, alright, hun..?”

Gem? "What are you even doing here, anyways." he asked, squirming a little in her grasp.

“Like I said…I’m here to kill your stupid planet and every stupid thing on it.”
She growled, shifting around a couple times to make sure he was firmly in place, but let go of his head and removed the scythe from his neck as she did so.

Gerry scoffed. "That's ridiculous. I mean, it's sooo unmotivated. Who tries to destroy the earth anymore?" he was really only pushing her to get more information, but wondered if there was entirely a point in reasoning with her. Plus, he could swear he'd cracked a rib with how tight Spinel had been squeezing him. "Who hurt you? What happened that made you act all genocidal? People have lives that matter, you know."

She chuckled darkly at this statement. “Oh, I know full well how much life this planet holds… Pink didn’t seem to care about how her actions effected others, why should I? All she ever cared about was her stupid colony!” The Gem hissed, tightening around him out of rage.

“This planet ruined my life, so I’ll ruin all the lives on it…” She snarled.

"Guh! Okay, having trouble breathing, I get it now!" he strained. Honestly, he was turning into this Lady's therapist at this point. She definitely wasn't done kind of monster, she was on the high end of the sentience line and seemed relatively pissed off compared to… whatever, so dealing with whatever this was would become… difficult.

"Hmm… Who's Pink? It seems she's more the one who ruined your life, not… here. Tell ya what, if you let me go I can find someplace for us to eat, maybe, and just talk it out." he did genuinely want to de-escalate, and plus, if it was a public place it was 50/50 on whether or not people would try to run or help out. So that was good.

“Breath? Eat? What does that mean?” She scoffed, “It’s probably unimportant.”
Spinel loosened herself, which was a surprise, seeing as her whole reason of coming here was to kill people.

“Pink Diamond? Of course she’s the one who ruined my life, that’s her whole thing; ruining lives! But this planet is why. As soon as we got the news that she had gotten a colony, she ditched me like I was some sort of…TOY!!” She snarled, clenching her fists tightly. “Do I look like a TOY to you?!!” She snapped, grabbing the collar of his shirt and looking him aggressively in the eyes. “DO I?!!!”

"I mean, you're kinda cute. Like a puppy. If you look past the murdering thing, I guess. But no, I am 98% certain you're fully sentient, and thus not a toy." he shrugged, glad she'd loosened up a little. "Are you sure I can't convince you to talk this out with me? It seems your problems are with this 'Pink Diamond', not with Earth."

This was a bad thing to say…all of those were bad things to say…
“CUTE?!!” She snapped, expressively making herself larger so she could loom over him. “HOW COULD A MONSTER LIKE ME BE CUTE?!!!” Spinel bared her canines, her eyes practically adding another iris to them as her hair fluffed up furiously.

“I KNOW my problems are with Pink, but it’s kinda’ hard ta kill someone who doesn’t exist anymore! So I’m goin’ for the next best thing…I’mma kill her son, and slaughter her planet…”

“Oh, I’m sure that *nobody can convince me. Not even her goody-two-shoes kid.”

"Well I mean, your nose is very… boopable. And I've met plenty of cute monsters! Like the one guy at my friend's-well, I say friend-workplace who got eaten by an evil door. He was kind of cute too. Had a weird laugh, but still."

"And if she's dead, are you sure the revenge thing is still worth it? I mean, you could kill her son, sure, nothing against that really, probably a stuck-up asshole, but why the rest of the world? I mean, one person can carry a lot more weight than a planet, in my opinion. S'personal." he shrugged as best he could in her grip, acting as passively as he could to seem less threatening because that would honestly make his situation way worse than what it already was.

“I am not cute!” She growled, he actually got a little frustrated blush out of her, but it was barely visible against her already pink skin. “Does THIS look cute to you?!” She asked angrily, gesturing to the black streaks running down her face, looking just about ready to slap a bitch.

“Yeah? And who are YOU to question what I want? Do you wanna’ be first in line to die..?”
It didn’t seem like being nice was working against her, or at least, his way of being nice. Maybe he needed a more gentle and concerned approach…

“Pssh, if he was a stuck-up asshole, he would’ve taken Pink’s throne.” Spinel scoffed. “An’ like I said, this place is what made her leave. It’s pretty simple. Is that too much to get through your thick skull?”
