Peridot went to Earth because routine maintenance was her job. Jasper just went to conquer. Neither of them got what they wanted, and what they did get was something they could never have been ready for. Jaspidot. Gem Egg Hell.

"It was at this point that Jasper finally looked up. Gone was the malice from her face and the murder in her eyes.

As of yesterday, Peridot had lost all the faith she had in her history teacher (granted, she didn't have much, but whatever). No one in their right mind would look at Jasper and Peridot and decide that they were the perfect partners for their end-of-term project on Ancient Greece. [Jasper/Peridot High School AU, in progress]
