Homeworld

The door to Yellow Diamond's personal office is opened, followed by said Diamond storming in with an annoyed expression, "Honestly…" Yellow Diamond huffed with clenched fists as she approached her chair next to her work bench that she used to conduct personal experiments, "Pink needs to realize that her immaturity will get her nowhere if she ever wants to get a planet of her own!" Yellow Diamond said to herself, while behind her, her yellow Pearl clouds be seen running in and going over to the nearby panel next to the door frame to close the door for her Diamond.

As the doors to her personal office closed with a harsh hiss and clasp of the doors shuttering close, Yellow Diamond pulled her chair out and sat into it and leaned her elbow on her work bench to lean her forehead into her palm, "She's the youngest out of the three four of us, but she still holds the authority of a Diamond…" Yellow then sighed irritably as she turned around on her chair to sit facing towards her desk, and crossed her leg over her other leg before crossing her arms to meditate on calming her nerves, lest her anger overwhelm her actions and decision making.

While her Pearl could be seen quietly walking up to stand next to her desk and await her next orders, Yellow Diamond sighed calmly as she finally found the calming silence soothing her mind; after several minutes passed, Yellow Diamond uncrossed her arms and reached to tap her fingers on her workbench as she mulled over her thoughts, while resting her other arm on her chair's armrest. She couldn't very well give Pink a planet yet, she needed a few more centuries of maturing, it wouldn't do for an immature Diamond to suddenly earn a planet of her own without understanding the full weight of having a colony under her command.

Yellow Diamond blew out a tired breath, even though she didn't need to breath, the action was still the same as a means to release her stress from dealing with Pink's tantrums; Pink already lost her first pearl several centuries ago to her tantrum, Yellow supposed the silver lining was that Pink learned that her emotional outburst then at the time had consequences, and it wasn't from the other diamonds. A Diamond's powers are far superior to that of the gems under their rule, and that was no hyperbole.

After a bit more time had passed with Yellow using the spare time she had to calm herself, and center her emotions, Yellow Diamond stood up and brushed her hand through her hair before making her way out of her personal office to check on a few things, "Pearl." Yellow announced as she exited her office and strided through the halls of her Yellow Palace on homeworld, already hearing the pitter pattering of her Pearl's feet hurriedly catching up with her.

"Yes Ma'am?" Yellow Pearl inquired with a respectful tone while Yellow Diamond continued to walk with her hands clasped behind her back.

"Give me the status update on my colony world of planet d39u23 of star sector ch4ff." Yellow Diamond ordered without a hint of annoyance in her tone, her frustration from dealing with Pink's small argument with her having left her after doing a bit of meditation.

As Diamond and pearl walked through the yellow palace halls, Yellow Pearl pulled out a small gem object from her pearl gem on her chest, and tapped it before a dark yellow holo display came out from it. "Let's see here…the readiness is at ninety nine percent, a hundred percent within the hour." she calmly answered her Diamond with a prim smile directed up at her owner as she walked behind her Yellow Diamond.

Yellow Diamond paused in her steps, prompting Yellow pearl to halt as well and stand behind her diamond and wait for further orders; Yellow diamond palmed her chin, and in her mind she went over all the ongoing projects she had on standby to work on and complete, and one was more prominent than most. Plans were laid out by her to make a new custom gem, after having made her Yellow Beryl so long ago, and her other custom made Yellow Morganite some thousand years ago, it was about time she worked on a new custom gem.

Yellow also didn't just want to create just any custom gem, she wanted to use a part of herself and create a magnumopus of a gem, a gem that could act in her stead with how fast the Diamond Empire has increased its reach within the galaxy; Yellow Diamond couldn't be everywhere at once to enact her authority, and at the same time, she didn't exactly think Yellow Beryl was an optimal choice to be her right hand gem.

A frown found its way on Yellow Diamond's face as she continued to ponder to herself, her palm still on her chin in thought, before letting it back down and continuing her way on though the hallways of her palace; No, Beryl was a good gem for what she made her for, but she was more or less suited for naval space command, and plus she was the very first custom gem she made, thus making a custom gem a third time after making two custom gems allowed Yellow to improve upon her past experiences.

"I'm already stretching thin on working on all my colonies, I need an actual trusting hand, and extension of my will if I so dare cherish the thought." Yellow Diamond thought to herself, not allowing what she was about to do to be known yet.

Planet d39u23

Yellow Pearl could be seen standing outside a closed doorway, that was very heavily guarded by Jasper gems; Yellow Pearl held her hands together as she awaited her diamond to finish an exit from her private chambers, but what Pearl knows from what her Diamond had told her, it'd be a while, thus she was stuck awaiting her Diamond while she was working on whatever project that was inside those closed doors.

Meanwhile inside her private chambers, Yellow Diamond had just finished getting out all the appropriate tools for what she was about to do; it would take her centuries to see the fruits of her labor, but right now she needed to focus on the now. Yellow Diamond was working on years, centuries, millenia of planning, designing and making several dozen diagrams of various mathematical equations of everything she knew about every gem makeup and use that as a foundation for making the magnum opus of her next creation. While she still cherished her first two custom made gems to a certain degree, Yellow wanted to make sure this time around was perfect, and create the best gem she could from out of her essence.

Standing before a workbench with a myriad of tools within her reach, Yellow picked up a pair of magnifying lenses to place over her eyes, and step over to the next work bench nearby while picking up a few tools from the previous one; as Yellow Stood over the other workbench, the table opened up and an array of metal claws sprang forth with an accessible keyboard as the edge of the table for Yellow to key into to properly use the contraption with precision work,

As Yellow Diamond began tapping into the keyboard before her after placing the tools aside for a bit, a holo display lowered down for her to see while a scan lowered down and swept its analyzer across her chest where her diamond was; after finishing its task, the analyser went back up and fed data into the holo display for Yellow to view and go through. The holo display showed her Diamond gem specs, while a gem camera lowered down to inspect her Diamond gem more thoroughly.

"Magnify…" Yellow Diamond muttered softly to herself as she keyed a few commands into the keypad in front of her, and the gem camera did just that as it twisted its optics and zoomed to the bottom tip of her square diamond on her chest. Another holo display lowered down to show Yellow Diamond a small fraction of her gem, and smiled as she saw no imperfections, before frowning as she realized the next step would no doubt be painful, but then again, it wasn't like she was taking a large piece out.

"Magnify." Yellow spoke once more to herself as she typed a few more commands into the keyboard, and the display showed the image going in further, prompting Yellow to nod to herself in satisfaction; holding up the tools she had placed down earlier, Yellow Diamond took a seat on the nearest chair and allowed the gem camera to follow her and aim its reticules at her diamond gem, allowing her to work with a steady hand and know where to use her special tools.

Outside, Both Jaspers and Yellow Pearl jumped a bit when they heard Yellow Diamond ellicent a sharp pained yell, followed by more pained yells, and finally silence; Not knowing what was going on, but worried for their diamond, all three gems tried to open the door, with success on Yellow Pearl's part by putting in an emergency keycode on the nearby panel to get the doors open.

"My Diamond!" All three gems chorused as they ran in with worried written all over their faces, only to halt as they say their Diamond sitting on a chair and hunched over a workbench with a myriad of tools and claws, with one such claw holding a very tiny looking yellow spec that was barely noticeable unless you squinted and looked in the right light.

Yellow Diamond glanced over her shoulder with an annoyed glare while she held a hand over her chest and kept the other hand on the edge of the workbench she sat next to to prevent herself from falling over, "On whose authority allowed you three to enter my work space!?" she hollered out with a sneer of frustration and pain.

While the two jaspers gave their Diamond the salute, Yellow Pearl stepped forward while also giving her Diamond her salute, "My Diamond, we all heard you elicit the sound of pain!" she started to fret in worry, "I was worried something had gone arie, and you sustained some sort of damage to yourself!" she responded to her Diamond's question.

Yellow Diamond let out a pained grunt while holding her hand over her chest and where her Diamond is, and stood up with a hiss of pain, then glared at the gems before her. "Nothing short of an inconvenience, you all can return to your stations immediately!" she ordered with a tone that left no room for argument.

Yellow Pearl looked timid as the Jaspers left, before leaving as well as commanded by her Diamond. Once the three left and shut the door behind them, Yellow Diamond turned to face the work bench next to her with a satisfied but pained expression with some sweat now noticeable on her brow; she lowered her hand away from her chest and leaned on her workbench to allow herself to recuperate, very small yellow sparks glittered at the bottom of her diamond gem.

The Yellow Diamond Matriarch however smiled in glee and anticipation as her eyes inspected the very tiny, almost microscopic piece of her gem within the grips of the metallic claw that reached out from the workbench in front of her. With a hiss of pain, Yellow Diamond moved to sit once more into her chair and began typing into her keyboard to inspect the small spec within the claw.

A magnifier zoomed in on the yellow spec, and allowed Yellow Diamond an eager smirk as she began typing up commands into the keyboard to begin bringing up diagrams of gem specs and a myriad of other complicated mathematical equations that would be needed to put into work and action to bring the fruits of her labor to bear the perfect custom gem; it would take centuries though, but Yellow Diamond was patient enough to know that the project before her needed time.

Yellow Diamond; I am mother, giver of life!

Citrine; Don't you mean Death, destroyer of worlds?

Yellow Diamond; I know what I said! Don't sass me!
