Human AU. At a low point in her life, twentysomething Peridot Forster reconnects with her old college friend, Lapis Lazuli. The two find comfort in their new relationship and connection in their struggles, leading to regular visits from Peridot to Lapis's city apartment. But Peridot wonders if her feelings have deepened beyond friendship...and whether Lapis feels the same way.

Perfection was all she was allowed to be. Anything else was wrong, useless. Worthless. Until Lapis blew into town. With her came a reckless unknown that forced Peridot from her comfort zone. But it also led her to something she didn't know existed: Total acceptance. The only problem was she had to learn to accept herself before she could accept Lapis. {Lapidot, AU, Lang/Violence}

Peridot is the daughter of a rich CEO, never getting to have the right of being herself. Lapis is a poor college student with nothing but a dream of being a rockstar in the big city. When fate brings the two together at a dinner party, their futures unknowingly intertwine. *Disclaimer* We do not own Steven Universe or the characters.
