After the massive beach battle and discovering that their long-time enemy was their long-lost Pink Diamond, Yellow and Blue had each been left confused and wanting answers. But to their surprise the crystal gems had taken Pink into their stronghold stating that "Steven needs to rest and recover." Not quite understanding this but not wanting to get into another battle they allowed them to leave. As Yellow went off to angrily check the status of their ships Blue noticed a familiar sight just outside of the slightly demolished structure.

Taking a couple strides she came face to face with he male human she was sure she'd taken away to Pinks zoo. He was sitting on the wooden stairs playing wooden device.

Greg stopped playing when a massive shadow loomed over him. To his credit he managed to stop himself from freaking out. He chocked it up to his nerves being shot from barely managing to avoid being crushed a few hours ago. But despite his calm he was still inwardly freaking out as he looked up at the women who he'd bonded with.

"It is you, But I was sure I took you to the safety of the zoo some time ago."

"Yeah Steven and the gems came after me not to long after you took me. Not that I can blame you I mean you had some good intentions and that zoo was a pretty nice place." He tried to keep calm but this women in front of him just had a house and a spaceship crash on top of her and was fine. He was trying hard to make sure he didn't say anything stupid.

Blue noticed how he kept staring up at her nervously and after realizing how terrifying he no doubt saw her she shrunk her form down to quartz size and sat down next to him.

"I'm sorry about destroying your home."

"It's actually not my home, Steven and the gems live here but I'm always close by when he needs me. And at the end of the day that's all that's important."

"Steven? Is that what Pinks been going by now?"

"Actually… Oh darn, how did I put this in a way that won't make you sad. Well the thing is Steven isn't entirely Pink Diamond."

"What do you mean by that?" For a moment her aura flared with anger at the thought of Rose pulling another deception but calmed down when she remembered the truth in Pinks aura.

"Well from what Steven and Peal told me Pink faked her shattering by having Peal shapeshift into rose and using her sword to poof her. After that she stayed Rose quarts that is until she and I met."

"How do you play a part in this?"

"You see Rose, or I guess Pink which ever you prefer kind of fell in love with me." He stared up at the sky as memories of the two of them filled his mind. "I truly loved her you know, she was just so caring and excited about everything and everyone. We'd spend hours talking about all kinds of things."

Blue was shocked to say the least. Hearing about the deception was one thing but to hear that the childish Pink she knew and missed had taken this human as a lover.

Pink choose him? Sure, he has genuine feelings of love and loss for her that much I can tell but to take an inferior organic is sheer madness. At the very least her Pearl would have been less embarrassing as possible partner.

Greg saw that look he was giving her and chuckled for a moment. "I know what your thinking. Why did she choose him right?"

She started to speak but he stopped her picking up his guitar and starting to play a gentle tune. "Honestly back when I first met her I was a traveling musician struggling to earn enough to travel. Then there she was one day, listening to my concert. The only one who showed up really. I still can't figure out what she saw in a nobody like me but after that night we kept meeting up and hanging out. Then when I met the other gems things just started falling into place."

"I'm curious human, what did you and Pink talk about?" Her curiosity was peaked hearing him talk about another side of Pink.

"We talked about everything, well not everything. She didn't like to talk about her past very much only saying that there were moments she regretted but we did talk about music and art a lot. In fact, we'd spend countless hours just listening to my records and reading comics and laughing." She saw his eyes water before a tear ran down his cheek. For the first time in an eon Blue saw someone besides the rare instance of Yellow express sadness and have it not just been because of her powers.

"You really do miss her, don't you?"

"I'd say more then you could possible know but you knew her longer than I did."

"Yes, but what does this have to do with Pink, I mean Steven."

"After a few years Rose and I decided we wanted a family of our own. So, we had a baby."

"A what?"

"Human version of reproduction involving a male and female combining genetic material to create a new person. Well after it was confirmed that Rose could have a baby it became clear that Steven and Rose couldn't exist the same time." His eyes began watering again remembering that long and soul crushing moment she told him the truth.

"When the day finally came her body glowed a bright pink and in flash Rose was gone and Steven was born. Something not quite human but not quite gem."

Thousands of things ran through her mind. Hearing that Pink had willingly given up her body to create something new. She couldn't understand it.

Then an old memory flooded to the surface. It was shortly after Pink arrived on this planet followed by Blue and Yellow. Pink had gone off into the dense forest and returned with a white flower of some kind before handing to blue.

"Here Blue."

"A flower?"

"Yeah I know it's not much but right now it's all I have to give. But I promise one day I'll build an entire temple filled with these to give you as thanks for finally letting me have a colony."

"She really did love this place, didn't she?"

"Yeah even the smallest thigs excited her. It never got old seeing how her face lit up when she saw a new flower or saw an animal." Getting an idea, he stood up and extend his hand.

"I know it sounds kind of stupid, but I do have some old videos of the two of us back in my storage unit. That is if you want, I mean it's just an idea and probably not a good one but." He scratched the back of his head realizing how bad this sounded out loud, but she smiled and grabbed his hand. "It sounds lovely actually.

"Great but I got warn you it's a bit of a walk from here. That is unless you want to grow giant and get their quicker." She thought about it for a moment but shook her head.

"No, I think I'd like to take my time and try to see what Pink saw in this city."

"Great! Oh, and the names Greg by the way."

Together the two of them walked along the edge of the beach listening to the waves crash against the shore until they reached the storage unit. The entire time Blue took notice of the other humans that had started returning and wondered what Rose saw in them.

After lifting the storage door Blue was taken back by the objects within. It wasn't what she could call messy as it was clear there was some type of organizing going on, but some objects were defiantly thrown about. In the middle was rather large couch and in front of that was a large tv.

"Sorry about the mess. Sometimes I just can't seem to get rid of things I like."

"It's quite alright I understand the feeling."

After searching for a moment Greg pulled out a stack of videos before turning on the tv.

The screen came to life and Blue saw Rose looking down at some creature rolled on its back. Blue had to remember that this was Pink and not her enemy.

"Greg what is this adorable little thing?"

"It's called a sea turtle. The mother lays its eggs in the sand and when their born they crawl out and into the sea. Although they say most don't make it."

Blue watched as Rose bent down before picking up the struggling creature and playing it on its stomach close to the sea where after a moment it wiggled its little body into the waves.

"Every creature deserves a chance to live. That's what being alive truly means. Everything here grows and changes. From the plants to the animals." She then walks over and grabs the camera turning on a much younger Greg. Blue is surprised to see how different looked Greg in the past. He was thinner and bulkier. For a moment he reminded her of a quartz soldier with his long hair.

"Even you Greg. I can't wait to see how you change in time."

The younger Greg just laughed a bit.

"Well I don't know about that. With my family history I'll probably just get bigger and balder."

For the rest of the night Blue and Greg popped in video after video watching him with Rose as well as some of his concerts and finally the few of Steven growing up. Bit by bit and video by video Blue started to understand if only slightly what Pink saw here.
