"Beach City with Peridot"
Peridot wandered the small city in search of Steven.
"Forty nine human minutes have passed since my search for Steven and The Tao, despite my initial thoughts of this planet's organic life form testaments from the Pearl had led me to believe that perhaps not all of this planet's natural organic creatures may not be as soft as expected. The search so far is unsuccessful, I doubt I will find Steven any time-"
"Hey Peridot!"
Steven was standing on a chair at a table waving like a madman trying to get his one sided relationship friends attention.
"Peridot! Peri! Peridot! It's me Steven! I'm yelling to get your attention!"
Peridot took a deep breath of frustration.
"Steven, Pearl has-"
Steven was too excited to even listen to Peridot.
"Hey have you ever had these fry bits?"
"Steven I-"
"Have you ever even had food before?"
"Steven-"
Steven then changed the subject once again realizing Connie was next with him.
"GASP! Have you even met Connie!"
Peridot was getting more and more flustered.
"Steven! I-"
"She's like one of the coolest people I know, top ten easy."
Connie waved her hand down modestly.
"Oh Steven, your making me blush!"
Peridot had taken enough.
"ENOUGH! STEVEN, I came down here cause Pearl wanted me to get you away from some psychopath named Tao!"
"Uh… Peridot….."
It was Peridots turn to not listen.
"But nooooooooo! I just need to hear about the Connie-bits, and the cool person fry, maybe I should just forget about saving you from an assassin!"
"Peridot seriously stop…."
She kept on going.
"And what kind of assassin is this guy anyway?! Is he so incompetent that he needs his outfit to say "Kill You" on it? Is he afraid people are going thinks he's an engineer or something! And who wears pink?!"
Steven and Connie just stared at the short gem who just used up all her energy and was facing the ground.
"Are you done?"
"Pant, Pant. Yeah. Yeah I'm good- Wait Steven what happened to your voice?"
Peridot looked at Steven and Connie who only pointed behind Peridot.
Upon turning around, Peridot was greeted by the glare of Mercenary Tao.
