/Water/ we doing here?
After a fun filled two hours of stomping and water flinging, the two found themselves tired and retreating back into the barn. Both of them were absolutely drenched in water, Lapis calmly began to wring out her dress and Peridot's first instinct was to shake like a dog to try and get the water off, only flecking water and causing her pastel green colored hair to spike out in different directions.
"Nygaah...This would be so much easier if I had my limb enhancers!" The small green gem hissed, unable to reposition her hair as she couldn't reach the top.
"Hm...Well, you have me, right?" Lapis said, brushing a piece of hair from her eyes and taking a look at Peridot, soon she snorted and started laughing as she saw how ridiculous the other looked.
Peridot's face burnt with a bright yellow-ish, green hue as she heard the other laughing at her. "W-What?"
The blue gem snickers but then started to work with Peridot's hair, running her fingers through the strands and re-shaping it. Humming a soft tune from her past, the rhythm of the rain adding to her melody as she worked.
"...music." Peridot mumbled, tapping her green fingers together as she listens.
Lapis was surprised, a bit caught off guard at Peridot's knowledge. She nodded.
"Did Steven show you?"
"Steven showed me."
They both spoke in unison, soon the taps of the rain were joined by their laughter. Now it was Lapis' turn to feel a dark blue blush on her face. "Water we even doing?"
Peridot's fingers tapped together again, almost jumping as she heard Lapis make a pun. "...Joke! Gah! If I can't be the splash superior I'll be the superior at jokes instead!" She exclaimed, trying not to move so much as she didn't want Lapis to pull her hair.
"Go for it." Lapis quietly responded, now working with the sides of Peridot's hair.
"Okay." The green gem huffed, as if she was preparing. "Why did the chicken cross the road?" Peridot started.
Before Lapis even heard the punchline, she snorted. "I don't know. Why, Peridot?"
Peridot barely waited for Lapis to finish speaking "To get to the other side of the road! Nyah hah hah!" she blurted and soon laughed, saying how she was so funny to herself. Not even noticing Lapis' reaction.
The blue gem saw how dorky Peridot was acting, why she felt her face blushing again is beyond her. To focus back on Peridot's hair she had pursed her lips and given a small nod. "Nice one."
