Even Steven
Lapis got down to her level, eyeing Peridot's embarrassed and temper filled features with a small glance.
"Guh....you're so complicated, I swear on my diamond you are." The green gem grumbled.
"Okay, Okay, I'll tell you." The blue gem snickers, not lifting her nonchalant glance from the shorter. "It's uh...probably easier to show...?" She murmured, but before she got the chance to there was a sudden, easily recognized voice shouting from across the way.
"Lapis? Peridot?" Steven called, stepping into the barn with his hotdog duffle bag slung over his shoulder. "Oh! There you guys are. I'm here for my sleepover." He explained, his flip-flops clapping as he walked.
Lapis retreated, standing up fast and glancing over to Steven with pursed lips. "H-Ha, Hi Steven." She started, but Peridot took over on words.
"Greetings Steven!" The green gem squeaked before hugging him on his side in an awkward manner.
"Oh! We have so much to catch up on like what I've done with my metal powers!" She beamed, seeming to forget about what happened a few moments ago.
Lapis ruffled Steven's hair, rather happy to see him. She seems to be paying attention, but in all honesty her mind was miles away; trying to process what in the name of all that is holy was she about to do. Maybe she could talk to Steven when she catches him alone she thinks.
