Steven seemed thoughtful. "NOW!...what to call you?...what to call you?..."
The Surface Pearl bounced with anticipation!
"Hmmm...how about "ICE CREAM"!? ...because YOU like to eat it, but Pearl doesn't?"
The Gem's excited smile transformed into a frown. "Steven...I don't want to be named after a food item..."
"Oh...well...do YOU have any suggestions then?"
"Hmmm...well, I guess I could choose something that has always made ME happy..."
"Like what?"
"Like...FLOWERS!"
"Flowers?"
"Oh yes! I always enjoyed it when...erm..."Pearl"...put flowers in her gemstone! It was always nice having something alive from the outside world to love and take care of..."
"Uh...but didn't you...completely rip up a fern, and throw it out of the gemstone? Just the other day?"
The Gem's face soured. "THAT was a PLASTIC fern! Stars know why the vase had actual dirt in it! A cruel trick to play indeed! I was so happy when I got it too...only to be met with disappointment! Who makes a FAKE plant?! The NERVE!"
Steven giggled slightly. Admittedly, he had not checked to see if the dissembled plant was real or not after the incident. The boy figured if gardening was HIS passion, a plastic plant would put him in a bad mood too... "Well...what's your favorite kind of flower?"
The Pearl suddenly looked dreamy-eyed into the distance. "Rose..." she sighed.
"R-ROSE?!" The boy sweated in awkwardness. He should have guessed. This Gem was still a part of PEARL after all...
The Gem blushed horribly! "Oh! Heh...guess that won't work for...obvious reasons." The new friend turned her head in embarrassment.
"T-that's okay! What's your SECOND favorite type of flower?"
"Hmm...how about...a...Hibiscus?" The Gem blushed again, recalling the memory of Pink Diamond handing her host said flower before the most important task of their life cycle.
Steven nodded in approval. "I like it! Hibiscus!"
It was the oddest thing she had ever seen!
Pearl was currently watching a memory, of her Surface Pearl watching the memory screen (with four other Surface Pearls), on the brain's monitor. It was like some sort of strange memory inception!
As surreal as the situation was, Pearl couldn't help but smile at the "film's" memory. Her five original Surface Pearls were whooping and clapping in approval, at the host's decision to help their beloved Diamond!
"Heh...I guess that decision was unanimous!" Pearl nodded to herself...wondering if the five Surface Pearls had anything to do with her life choices.
Man guys! Those amazing episodes yesterday!
...Am I right?!
XD
Also, Our Surface Pearl has her own name now! Yippy-skippy!
