Gardener of Men
Blue Diamond was draped over the bed, twisting with several low, lascivious moans. Her robes were bunched up rather inappropriately around her waist.
The sound of a communicator near her table beeping almost went by ignored until a yellow hand reached up from between her legs. Yellow Diamond sighed, wiped her hand on her mouth before making a face. She gave Blue a look.
"Give me a moment," she told her. "I'll have to settle this."
Blue Diamond made a disappointed sound, but nodded her head. Yellow Diamond smirked at her and activated the communicator. Her pearl's visage appeared and she made a rather embarrassed smile. Yellow Diamond sighed impatiently.
"Make it quick, pearl," she told her, "I'm occupied at the moment."
She gave a fleeting glance back at Blue, who chuckled and cast her gaze upwards. Occupied, indeed.
"Yes, My Diamond," the pearl said, "I have received word that White Diamond has requested the presence of both of you very soon. She didn't say what it was for, but that it was of the utmost importance."
"I see," Yellow Diamond replied. "Very well. We will be there in an hour or so."
Yellow Pearl nodded her head once, saluted and ended the conversation, leaving the two diamonds alone once again.
Yellow Diamond sighed, set the communicator down before smiling at Blue. "Ahh, so where were we?" she said. Her smirk broadened. "Oh, yes."
She made her way back into the bed, reaching down with one hand to press two fingers between Blue's legs. The diamond gave a soft groan of approval, cheeks flushing a darker blue. Yellow rocked those fingers against her cunt and the motions made her thighs twitch toward them, seeking relief.
After a few moment, Yellow brought her hand up to Blue's cheek, cupping it and hissing softly when Blue kissed that thumb coated in her slick.
"Do...Do we have time?" Blue purred, eyes darkening.
"We have time." Yellow told her. "If not, they can wait a little while for us."
Blue licked that thumb for a few moments more before drawing it into her mouth for a nice, generous suck. Yellow Diamond snarled softly, pulling her hand away and doing away with the rest of her clothing. The almost quick, ungraceful manner in which she did caused Blue to utter an affectionate, breathless laugh.
"Come here, Yellow. You've teased me enough." she said, reaching for her.
When Yellow Diamond settled herself on top of her, Blue raised a rather coy eyebrow and reached down between their bodies to touch her. She was greeted with a generous coating of slick. Yellow shuddered above her, eyes glowing bright with need.
"Yes..." she hissed. "Slide them in."
She reached down, slipped two fingers into Blue, while the other diamond mirrored the gesture for her; the two began to rock into each other's hands, drawing soft, thick sounds from each other's lips.
Yellow smirked breathlessly and Blue leaned up, dragging her teeth across her chin, down to her neck. Yellow leaned her head to the side for better access; she so loved it when Blue used her teeth. Whether it be on her neck or her cunt, it always left the surface of her skin tingle pleasantly.
Their bodies moved harder and faster into one another as they practically rode each other's fingers toward that blissful end; Yellow biting back a curse and Blue moaning melodically.
"Yes! Yes, yes, there..." Yellow hissed out, clutching the sheets with her free hand near Blue's head, "I'm there!"
She chanted Blue's name like a mantra and Blue strained upwards, crying out before she tipped over the edge. It didn't take long for Yellow to follow - the sounds Blue made usually helped in that. Yellow gave several long, deep chokes and Blue gently removed her fingers from her, circling her arms around her shoulders.
She shuddered once. Twice.
"Well..." Yellow murmured, almost awkwardly.
"Well." Blue repeated, affectionately.
She usually seemed at odds when she was seen in a vulnerable state. It was just her way and just how Blue was used to her. She ran her hands up and down Yellow's back, a soothing gesture before she looked down at her hand, still coated in her release.
Yellow gave a long, relaxed sigh before she looked up at the sight of Blue cleaning her fingers with her mouth. A darker flush of yellow touched her cheeks and she huffed.
"Honestly, you're such a vulgar thing," she quipped.
"Me? I'm vulgar?" Blue said, crowing with laughter and giving a rather regal toss of her head. "Wasn't it you who whispered such lurid things to me that ended with us in my chambers to begin with?"
Yellow managed a smile against her neck. "Fine."
"Oh, I wish you would let down your guard like this more often," Blue told her, giving her a chaste kiss over her gem, "You look beautiful, Yellow."
A small sound against her neck. "It's all about maintaining an image, Blue. You know this."
"Yes, of course."
O
White Diamond waited for Pink to arrive first at the Homeworld warp; when she heard the sound of it activating behind her, she turned and a small smile teased at the corners of her lips. Pink looked around for a moment before meeting White's gaze.
"So, what is so important, White?" she asked, with a smile.
"I have a gift. For you," White Diamond told her. "Now if the other two will - "
The warp behind them activated, cutting her off and both Blue and Yellow stepped through. White regarded them with a frown.
"You're late." she said.
"Yes, forgive us," Blue told her, tucking her hands in her robe sleeves. "We were simply - "
"I know what you were doing," White interrupted, evenly. She raised an eyebrow. "But that's not my concern. You are here now and I would like for you to be present for the unveiling of a new project. This one is suited to Pink Diamond's requests and I trust it will be respected among the two of you?"
"Of course." Blue assured her.
Yellow nodded, waving a dismissing hand. "Honestly, White; do you take us for, Quartz's? Show us this new project of yours and let's be done with it."
White Diamond nodded once, not noting her tone before she turned, gesturing for Pink to follow beside her. Once the diamonds stepped through another warp, they were brought into a room donned with pink symbols and glass.
Yellow Diamond looked around. "What is this, White?" she asked.
"This is a new facility I've been working on," White Diamond explained, "It's located near Pink's colony, so it makes traveling quick and efficient for lesser gems."
Pink Diamond stared at her curiously. "It's quite beautiful and I appreciate the images you've painted here. But...what is it?"
White stopped, looked at her and gestured to a glass window at her feet. Pink looked at her briefly, furrowing her brow before she approached and looked down. Her eyes widened in amazement at what she saw below; a waterfall, enormous plants and various Earth animals grazing among them.
"Their basic needs will be met," White assured her, "Organic specimens don't require much in the way of support, and I was capable of creating the gems suitable to tend to their needs. The Rose Quartz's. I've developed a new form of them; they are now second-generation beings specifically for healing and nurturing."
Rose Quartz. Yes, Pink Diamond knew of them. Originally, they were guards for her colony, but now... Such possibilities at her disposal. She appreciated it.
Pink brightened with delight. Yellow raised a skeptical eyebrow.
"White, honestly; indulging in her obsessions?" she quipped. "Doesn't that seem like a blatant waste of our resources?"
"Nonsense," White replied, regarding her briefly, "The human natives and Earth's fauna are easily satisfied for their basic needs, as I've previously stated. And preserving the specimens was Pink's desire; in that desire I found the logic in such an endeavor."
Blue smiled, her voice almost teasing. "I'm certain that's all it was."
White simply turned, a bit too hastily from her. She led Pink to another room; a personal chamber filled with beautiful pink ribbons that lined the pillars and ceiling. In the center was a lounge chaise. Pink took a moment to appreciate it by resting herself comfortably on it. Her pearl eventually joined at a simple beckon of her finger.
"This is a wonderful gift, White!" Pink told her, smiling up at the other diamond, "Now we can preserve as many specimens as we can before the planet is harvested. Thank you! I appreciate your efforts."
White nodded once, but her eyes widened when Pink stood and threw her arms around her shoulders in an embrace. She stood there, waited until she was certain that Pink was finished before she spoke, once the other matriarch pulled away.
Pink chuckled and inclined her head slightly. "Thank you."
White Diamond nodded, ignoring the smiles from the other two. "Every bit of data will be at your fingertips. Your pearl will be able to access them accordingly in the data drives stored below." She looked down at the pearl now. "When you retrieve specimens, be certain you log away valuable data for future research."
"I will be certain to make sure she does so." Pink assured her.
White departed without another word.
O
Homeworld had gardens, much like Earth.
But they were not like the things that Pink felt such fondness for; in the darkness of the garden that White found herself standing, the plants were glowing with luminescence. It was a curious comfort to her and a moment of peace to contemplate her actions.
White Diamond often found tranquility and contentment here; she could meditate sometimes with her pearl nearby, clearing her mind of any emotion she felt threatened her.
She took a seat at the center of a circle, crossing her legs. Nearby were several sconces on pillars. With a wave of her hand, the sconces lit up with bright, white fire. She shut her eyes and touched the tips of her fingers together.
In a few moments, White drifted away into her mind.
Logic was lost here.
White Diamond looked up toward the bright, shining stars; she was standing in the center of the garden, but the buildings of Homeworld were gone. All that existed in this world was herself. Everything about the outside universe was lost. It was much like the day she had first emerged in darkness.
She looked toward the rushing waters nearby, spotting the form of Pink Diamond standing there. The other matriarch eventually turned, smiling with eyes so warm and inviting, White Diamond couldn't resist making her way toward her.
White was suddenly aware of the constricting sensation in her chest when Pink reached up to cup her cheek with one hand. She shut her eyes, leaning into the touch before kissing the palm of that hand. It was impulsive and something foreign to her.
Gems feared her. Even her fellow Diamonds looked upon her with uncertainty and doubt, but Pink Diamond did not.
White moved then; she reached up with one finger, gently stroking her cheek before slowly moving lower down the length of her neck. Pink's eyes closed and she leaned into the touch, her lips parting in a soundless sigh of pleasure.
No logic here.
Pink leaned closer, seeking more physical contact with her. She splayed her hands across White's chest, moving them slowly - almost too slowly - across her breasts, down her abdomen and back toward the larger diamond's back and hips. Each gentle caress blazed the flames hotter within White Diamond's form. She felt fingertips tracing the length of her back, moving lower to hold her hips close.
White leaned her head down for a kiss, reaching up to cup Pink's cheeks.
In moments, the two of them were slowly falling to the ground together.
White's fingers laced with Pink's, pressing each other's palms tightly together. Not a sliver of air separated their now naked bodies.
Pink was beneath her, touching and tasting every bit of skin at her disposal; tracing the unique dark, gray lines in White's flesh with her fingertips. She didn't vocalize her pleasure in words or sounds, but with her body.
Such sinful sounds, such forbidden pleasures of the flesh that White had not called herself to in so long...
Once they rocked into each other, neither one of them could be stopped; White moved fiercely, driven with constrained need to satisfy herself and to satisfy the passionate diamond beneath her who pleaded for it, pleaded for her.
When she felt the pivotal moment approach, White snapped from her meditative slumber with a small, startled sound. She looked around at the garden before staring upwards, realizing that the sun was rising beyond the buildings. She'd been there for hours.
White remembered the images in her head and felt disgusted with herself. Rarely did she know shame - there was no need to feel such a thing being what she was - but here, she was ashamed of herself for coming up with such a lecherous image in her mind. She was not a young Quartz having physical cravings for another. Such things were reserved to them.
But here she was, feeling a deep, scorching ache like she was young again.
If she was going to be honest to herself, she did feel a yearning for Pink Diamond, but it had been far too long for her and rarely did these needs seem of any necessity. But perhaps it was just that; she had been without physical intimacy for so long, perhaps her body was just reacting by nature.
Of course, that's all it was.
O
The Rose Quartz's seemed to work well with the humans.
Pink Diamond admired them at work from behind a glass wall. White Diamond's generation of Rose Quartz's looked more human in nature; they were friendly, maternal and catered to the needs of the humans perfectly. Pink couldn't have been more proud of them.
Pink knew that making her presence seen among the humans would probably stir fear among them. Until they were completely accustomed to their lives among the gems, she would have to be hidden. For now. When the time came to meet them, she would have many questions about their people.
While she spent time at her zoo, White was busy working on her own little project.
The gem fusion in question was being held behind the glass cage, holding herself and shaking with fear. White calmly turned toward a machine, ran her fingers over it before looking toward the frightened gem fusion.
"Do you have dreams?" she asked.
The fusion nodded her head, frightened.
"I have them." White Diamond said, tuning the device before her. "I don't dream often, but I have now. Such wondrous things, dreams. Sometimes they show us things we may want, or sometimes they inspire us to do things we never believed."
"Please...I beg your forgiveness!" the fusion pleaded.
White Diamond ignored the plea. "I am an old gem. I have seen the cosmos end and begin, and yet... I do not fathom the nature of love. Perhaps you could explain it to me?"
The fusion looked hopelessly confused.
"M-My Diamond... Will I be required to explain it?" she stammered.
White Diamond watched her, fascination lighting her face. "If you would be so kind."
The fusion wavered, struggling to calm herself before she studied her hands. "Love it's... Well, it's different for everyone." she attempted to steady her voice and explain the concept to White Diamond. "It makes us stronger. When you - you love someone, you can do anything."
White Diamond tilted her head. "Is that what made you commit the sin you did?"
"N-No!"
A thin, cold smile lit White Diamond's face. "But you just told me it makes you stronger. Fusion made you strong enough to attempt an uprising on one of my colonies. Are they the same?"
The fusion looked sick. "That wasn't me, I swear it!"
White looked down at the device for a moment, thinking about that for a moment. "You were judged for orchestrating an uprising...and you believe love is what controlled your actions?"
"No, I mean, I didn't want - "
White stood up, pacing around the room as she considered this. She tilted her head curiously at the fusion, perhaps fascinated by the thought.
"Is that what love does? It helps you?" she asked.
The fusion laughed, uneasy. "It does, M-My Diamond," she told her.
"Interesting." White Diamond took her seat again, regarding the fusion. "So what you're saying is love destroys the fabric of logic. Logically, you are not intended to form a fusion of one another. By the code of my order, you should hate one another. Yet this love you speak of, it changed you. Made you what you assume to be better."
"S-Some don't see it that way..." The fusion struggled to speak, too frightened to get her thoughts together. "My Diamond, love is what heals. We were nothing until we found each other. B-But if you let us go, we promise we won't fuse again!"
White watched her silently as she begged. She raised her eyebrows. "Yes, you would."
The fusion stared at her with horror. No convincing. No changing her mind.
"But I find your offer interesting nevertheless; you say you would never fuse again. You can simply just choose to stop loving one another because I say so?" White found the cowardly notion almost insulting.
"Y-Yes! We can try - I mean, yes, we will!"
White watched the fusion for the longest time, her diamond-shaped irises suddenly narrowing. She raised one hand to the device beside her and flipped a switch. Immediately the room was filled with a sound that had the fusion buckling with a wail of agony. White herself couldn't hear the noise due to the shielded glass, but the fusion certainly would.
"Pity." White Diamond said, watching the fusion's form flicker, like static.
Pleading for mercy, screams and wails of torment echoed in the room, all the while White Diamond watched silently.
The screams began to transform into monstrous groans and snarls.
O
The zoo had done quite well in taking care of the humans in the passing year. Pink observed human birth each time and her Rose Quartz's were quite gentle in tending to them. It pleased her to witness the life cycle of human beings, their education and their needs. They were simply fascinating and precious.
In a chamber filled with human infants, a single Rose Quartz had been cradling a human baby in her arms. She brought up a holographic display of a Ferris Wheel that played music for the infant. The small human cooed and reached up with two hands to touch it.
Rose smiled warmly. "You're a good human infant." she crooned, chuckling gently. "I could hold you here all day."
The baby reached for her and Rose chuckled, holding him close. "Oh, humans are so lucky!" she sighed, "To be able to have you. Imagine if we could have the same thing..."
In another room, Rose could hear a Red Agate educating older humans. She was teaching them gem history and the importance of the Diamond Authority.
"Who takes care of us?" Red Agate asked.
"The Diamond Authority!" the children said, together.
"And who is it who keeps you safe?"
"The Diamond Authority!"
The Red Agate smiled, pleased. She clapped her hands together. "Now then, let's look at our history tablets at the discovery of White Diamond's first colony!"
The children did as she said and started up tablets laid in front of them. Rose watched the scene gravely, knowing that somewhere along the line, this felt...wrong.
O
Note - Yes, the Rose Quartz holding the baby is OUR Rose. I figured she would have experienced humans in the zoo in some way, which led to her love of them.
