Steven Universe: Behind the Scenes Chapter 70- Rose's Room
March 16 2014
Steven went to the studio today, he was filming for another episode. Rose's Room. And his father was going to be in some parts as well.
Steven was at the Cartoon Network studio lot. He showed his access card to Snitzel. "Rada, rada," he said, opening the gate to grant him access.
Steven went to his trailer to get ready, his father did the same. He got into his suit and changed into his pink star shirt and jeans. He put on a pair of flip-flops and went out of the trailer.
The hybrid ran to the set where the actors were now waiting for him. Pearl studied her lines for the final time before filming for the episode.
Rebecca was talking with Garnet about something, Ameythest was eating a fruit cup before going on, and Steven stood there, watching everyone.
"Steven!" Pearl said
"Hey, Pearl!"
"Are you ready?" she asked.
"Yeah, I am," he said
"Alright, guys, places!" Rebecca said
"And…action."
"Steven Universe: Rose's Room scene one, take one." The clapper leader clapped the clapper board
Steven stood at the counter, a can of Colonel Kernel's Classic Creamed Corn in hand. With a flair for the dramatic, he began narrating his own epic saga.
"This is it, folks," he declared with a grandiose gesture, "Rookie sensation Steven Universe readies his last spoonful of creamed corn. As the crowd waits with bated breath, one bite separates him from destiny." With a flourish, he scooped a spoonful of the creamy goodness and swallowed it triumphantly. "And he's done it! He's eaten four cans of creamed corn!"
At that moment, the Temple Gate swung open, and out strolled the Gems from Pearl's Room, their presence instantly brightening the atmosphere.
"Good afternoon, Steven," Pearl greeted, her tone warm and motherly.
"Guys, check this out!" Steven exclaimed, excitement bubbling over as he gathered the empty cans from the counter, holding them up like trophies.
"Stoo-man in the house! Whatcha got? Whatcha got?" Amethyst teased, bouncing on her heels, her eyes wide with curiosity.
"I got four empty cans of Colonel Kernel's Classic Creamed Corn!" Steven announced proudly.
"Cool," Garnet replied, her expression unreadable yet approving.
"Yeah, and look!" Steven continued, flipping the cans around to reveal the backs. "There are five dollar coupons for mini-golf! I ate four cans, so we all can go together!"
Pearl smiled, but her expression quickly shifted. "That's so thoughtful, Steven. Unfortunately though, uh…"
Amethyst shrugged, her carefree attitude shining through. "We gotta go on a mission…"
Steven's face fell, shock overtaking his features. "What? Not again! But you guys promised we'd hang out!"
"A dangerous artifact has appeared in the Northern Hemisphere," Garnet stated with her usual calmness, walking toward the Warp Pad, her tone leaving no room for argument. "We need to go retrieve it."
"But mini-golf is so much fun!" Steven protested, his voice rising with disappointment. "There are castles, and windmills, and I like it, and—oh look, look what I brought!" He dashed into the living room, returning triumphantly with his father's old golf clubs and a pair of his dad's vintage golf pants. "They're a little big on me, but you can wear them, Garnet!"
Pearl and Amethyst chuckled at Steven's antics, while Garnet remained stoic, a faint hint of amusement flickering in her eyes.
"See ya, buddy!" Amethyst called as the Gems stepped onto the warp pad.
"We'll bring you something back!" Pearl added, a smile lingering on her lips.
As the Gems disappeared in a flash of light, Steven let out a heavy sigh, the sound echoing through the empty house. "Well, you're not the only ones with a dangerous adventure to tackle," he muttered to himself.
With a newfound resolve, Steven plopped down, grabbing a bag of chips and booting up his favorite video game, Mini Golf Quest. The screen lit up as a cheerful professor greeted him, handing over a shiny golf club.
"Awww yeah! You received the Mythril Putter!" Steven exclaimed, mimicking the game's sound effects. "Don't worry, Professor. We're gonna sink 'em all!" He chuckled, diving deeper into the whimsical world of pixels and challenges.
"Steven Universe: Rose's Room scene two, take one."
As he played, he soon encountered his first in-game enemy—a walking windmill. With determination in his eyes and a snack in hand, Steven was ready to conquer this digital adventure, proving that even solo quests could be filled with excitement and fun.
He found himself engrossed in a challenging video game, battling against a relentless windmill enemy.
"Uh oh. Oh windmill. Why must we always fight?" he exclaimed, launching into a spirited duel with the mechanical foe. As the hours flew by, Steven lost himself in the game, determined to conquer its many levels. He fought valiantly through the night until, at last, he faced the final boss, a surprising figure who turned out to be none other than the professor from the very beginning of the game.
"I can't lose! I am the greatest golfer in the Universe!" he declared triumphantly, mimicking explosion sounds as the game reached its climax and the screen flooded with victory. Laughter erupted from him as he celebrated the secret ending he had unlocked.
Just then, his friends Pearl, Amethyst, and Garnet returned from their own adventures. "Hey, Steven! We're back~!" Pearl called out, her voice bright with excitement.
"Hey," Steven replied, still buzzing from his gaming victory. As they gathered around, a cutscene began to unfold on the TV screen. The in-game character, Ace, stood before a mysterious mechanical door. "Project F.L.O.G! That's 'golf' backwards," he announced as he opened the door to reveal a cryogenic capsule.
"What is this?" Ace pondered aloud, but before he could delve deeper, Amethyst swooped in, blocking Steven's view with a playful grin. "HEY, STEVEN! Wanna hear about where we've been?" she shouted, her enthusiasm infectious.
"Un— Oh! Wait! Wait, hold on!" Steven tried to push her head aside, eager to continue watching. Meanwhile, Ace was busy wiping fog off the capsule. "June 9, 2014? But that was the date he disappeared!" he exclaimed, revealing a mystery that intrigued Steven.
Suddenly, Amethyst tumbled in front of him once more, completely obstructing his view. "Hey!" he protested, but Garnet stepped in, drawing his attention. "Steven! Look at this," she said, placing an artifact on the floor.
"It's the Wailing Stone we found!" Amethyst chimed in, her eyes sparkling with mischief.
"The Wailing Stone I found," Garnet clarified, a hint of pride in her voice. Pearl, ever the scholar, added, "Isn't it neat? It uses high-frequency sound waves as a message relay… between two fixed points in space and time!"
"Guuuuys!" Steven exclaimed, trying to focus on the cutscene.
Amethyst, ignoring him, pressed the top of the Wailing Stone. It suddenly activated with a loud, piercing noise that filled the room, causing everyone to cover their ears. The sound was so powerful that it even broke the TV. Pearl quickly hit the top of the Wailing Stone, silencing it.
Rebecca and the crew covered their ears as well. The sound was so loud that it echoed off the walls of the sound stage. People could probably hear it outside of it, too.
"Amethyst, I told you not to turn it on in the house!" Pearl scolded, a mix of frustration and concern in her tone.
"Hahaha! Chill out, P. It's not like anyone got hurt, and Steven loved it!" Amethyst teased, glancing at a dazed Steven.
"THAT WAS THE SECRET ENDING!" Steven shouted, still reeling from the chaos. "Now I have to replay the final dungeon all over again! It's not fair! I can't go mini-golfing, I can't play my game, and I can't stop going into the bathroom because I ate all that Creamed Corn! So much corn…" He sighed, feeling overwhelmed. "I just wish I had a place for myself."
In that moment of vulnerability, something magical happened. Steven's gem began to glow, pulling his attention away from his frustrations. He lifted his shirt to inspect it, curiosity piqued.
"Huh? My gem!" he exclaimed. A soft hum resonated from the Temple Gate, drawing the attention of the Crystal Gems. To their surprise, Rose's Symbol began to glow brightly on the Temple Gate, hinting at a new adventure just on the horizon.
And so, amidst the laughter and chaos of friendship, Steven was reminded that even in the toughest of times, he was never alone. Together with his friends, new mysteries awaited, ready to unfold in their extraordinary world.
"Woah…" Steven breathed, his eyes wide with wonder.
Behind him, the Gems—Pearl, Amethyst, and Garnet—quickly rushed forward, their expressions a mix of concern and urgency.
"Steven, wait!" Pearl called, her voice laced with worry.
"Don't go in there!" Garnet added, her tone firm and protective.
But Steven, feeling a rush of defiance, shot back, "It's never about what I wanna do, is it? Well now we have a place where I'm going, and YOU CAN'T COME!" With a determined stomp, he stepped into the room.
"STEVEN!" the Gems shouted in unison, but it was too late—the door closed behind him with a soft thud, sealing him away from their watchful eyes.
"Cut!" Rebecca called. Steven steps out of the other set, which was Rose's room, which was just another set connected to the main one.
"Steven Universe: Rose's Room scene three, take one."
Steven, Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl all went to the snack table. Pearl picked out some fruit and Steven did the same.
Inside Rose's Room, the atmosphere was enchanting. The door vanished into a swirl of pink clouds, leaving Steven alone in this magical space. "Woah…" he murmured, taking in the sight before him. The room was filled with whimsical decorations and soft, fluffy clouds floating gently in the air. "So this is my mom's room? She must've liked clouds a lot. But what kind of room doesn't even have a bed?"
Just as he thought this, a bed materialized beneath him, appearing as if summoned by his curiosity. "Cool!" he exclaimed, bouncing onto the soft surface. But as he lay there, a new idea sparked in his mind. "You know what would be really nice? Quadruple-bunk beds!"
In an instant, the bed transformed, lifting him high into the air as it morphed into a magnificent quadruple bunk bed complex. Each level was a marvel, showcasing vibrant colors and cozy blankets, perfect for adventures and dreams.
With a gleeful laugh, Steven realized he was in a place that felt like a dream, a space where he could explore the essence of his mother and his own imagination. Little did he know, this was just the beginning of his journey in Rose's magical room.
A slide appeared beside him, beckoning him to join in the fun. With a gleeful shout of "WOO-HOO!", he launched himself down the slide, soaring through the air. Just as he began to descend, a parachute materialized on his back, gently guiding him to the ground before vanishing into thin air.
"Ehehehe! What next?" he pondered, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Hmmmm... A Tiny Floating Whale?"
In an instant, the Tiny Floating Whale appeared before him, making the cutest little whale sounds. Steven giggled, enchanted by the sight. "Wow! Here I can get anything I ask for! But you know what I really want? I wanna see the end of my game, without being interrupted!"
With a snap, a TV materialized, displaying the game "Golf Quest Mini." As Steven and the Tiny Whale exchanged a high-five, the secret ending cutscene began to play. Ace, the hero of the game, opened a cryogenic capsule, and out emerged a man who sat upright, revealing himself as Ace's father.
"It's me, your father! After decades of cryostation, I'm finally free!" he exclaimed. The cutscene concluded with Ace and his father standing triumphantly on a hill, overlooking their world."Saving the day is just par for the course," Ace declared.
Feeling a wave of fatigue wash over him, Steven yawned. "Awesome! Hmm... I'm kinda hungry now." Suddenly, a donut appeared before him.
"Alright!" he cheered, but as he reached for it, the donut poofed away. "Wha...? Hey! I want a real donut!" he protested. Another donut popped into existence, but as he tried to grab it, it vanished once more.
"What?! Can you believe this?" he exclaimed, frustration creeping into his voice. The Tiny Floating Whale responded with a series of tiny whale sounds, as if sharing in his plight.
"Now I have to go out for donuts!" Steven decided, and a door appeared, leading him to the outside world. He stepped through, calling back, "Don't get excited, guys. I'm only back for a second."
As he emerged into the familiar streets, he found his house empty, the Gems nowhere in sight. "Well, good! I didn't want to see you anyway," he muttered, brushing off the absence of his friends. With determination, he made his way to the Big Donut.
"Steven Universe: Rose's Room scene four, take one."
Upon entering, he cheerfully greeted the familiar establishment. "Hey! How's my favorite fine foods franchise? So, I'm thinking... double chocolate cinnamon twist with sprinkles on the side. You know I like to dip."
Sadie and Lars stood at the counter, grinning from ear to ear, but their smiles seemed a little too wide, almost robotic.
"Uhhh... Steven to Sadie and Lars!... Is this like a joke or something?" he asked, puzzled by their odd behavior.
"Hello, Steven. What kinda donut would you like?" they both chimed in unison.
Steven blinked, confused. "Uhh, I just said—"
"It's very nice to see you, Steven!" they replied, still smiling.
"Well, it's very nice to see you, too!" he replied, trying to match their enthusiasm.
"Here are your donuts!" they said, presenting a towering stack of colorful pastries.
"Wait, you guys, I only ordered—" Steven began, but his words trailed off as he gazed at the mountain of donuts before him, wondering if this was all part of the adventure or just another twist in his whimsical day. With a grin, he decided to embrace the unexpected and enjoy the ride. After all, in this magical world, anything was possible!
In the heart of Beach City, the sun began its descent, casting a warm golden glow over the quaint little store where Steven stood. Just moments before, Sadie and Lars had declared their affection with a cheerful, "OK, we love you, Steven! Bye bye, now!" Their voices echoed in the air as they stepped back, retreating to the shadows of the store.
"Wait, where are you guys going?!" Steven called out, his confusion clear. "I still haven't paid for these!" But before he could finish his thought, they had vanished, leaving him alone with a handful of items and a growing sense of unease. With a sigh, Steven exited through the back door, only to be met by an unusual sight: the sky had darkened ominously, and Beach City looked eerily deserted.
As he wandered into the quiet streets, Steven spotted Onion standing under a flickering streetlight, a mischievous grin plastered on his face. "Hey, Onion! Have you seen Lars and Sadie? They should have just been out here!" Onion merely glanced at him, still grinning. Steven shrugged, figuring Onion was up to his usual antics. "If you see them, let me know, okay? Here, have a donut." He offered a donut, poking it playfully onto Onion's head. "See you later!"
With that, Steven strolled along the boardwalk, the silence amplifying his sense of dread. He passed by Beach Citywalk Fries, the lights glowing warmly, but inside, he didn't notice Frybo watching him from behind the counter. "All the lights are on, but no one is here…" Steven muttered to himself, his unease deepening. Just then, he caught sight of Frybo, who placed a plate of fry bits on the counter.
Steven's heart sank. He didn't want to see that thing again. But he had to endure it, even if it was for the show.
He went back into his character.
"Oh, fry bits!" Steven exclaimed, his usual excitement dampened by the unsettling atmosphere. "Usually, I'm all about the bits, but I'm feeling kinda spooked right now." Frybo continued to stack plates of fry bits, the plates merging into a surreal mountain that sent chills down Steven's spine.
"GAH!" he yelped, suddenly overwhelmed. "Uh, you know what? I think I'm gonna look around some more. See you later, Frybo!" Without waiting for a response, he darted away, heart racing.
His exploration took him to Beach City Funland, where the air felt thick with anticipation. As he approached Funland Arcade, the lights flickered on, and the games roared to life, startling Steven even more. "Ah!" he gasped, sprinting away as adrenaline surged through him.
Finally, he found himself at the beach, where the rhythmic sound of waves crashing filled the air. To his surprise, he spotted Connie, standing alone and gazing out at the sea, her silhouette framed by the twilight. "Connie! I can't believe it's you. When did you get back in town?" he called out, relief flooding through him.
But as he stood beside her, he couldn't shake the strange feeling in the air. The tides of the sea were jerking back and forth unnaturally, a foreboding sign that something was amiss in their beloved Beach City.
The sun dipped low on the horizon, casting a warm glow over Beach City. Steven stood at the edge of the water, a sudden chill creeping up his spine.
"AH! The water! Connie, what's happening? Where is everyone?" he shouted, panic rising in his voice.
Connie turned to him, her eyes vacant and unseeing. "He was INCREDIBLE!" she exclaimed, her tone eerily cheerful.
Steven blinked in confusion. "Huh?"
"He was INCREDIBLE!" Connie repeated, her voice echoing in the stillness.
His heart raced as he stumbled backward in shock, glancing around to find the other residents of Beach City standing like statues behind him, their faces blank and lifeless.
"What is going on?!" Steven cried out, his voice trembling.
"He was INCREDIBLE!" Connie continued, her chant growing louder and more insistent.
"Get me out of here!" Steven yelled, sprinting past the frozen faces of his friends and neighbors.
"What's wrong with your faces? Lion, you too?!" he exclaimed, spotting his loyal companion among the throng, equally entranced.
"He was INCREDIBLE!" Connie's voice echoed again, reverberating off the walls of his mind.
In a moment of sheer bewilderment, Steven found himself treading water—an endless expanse of blue stretching out beneath him.
"Can someone please explain this?! Huh?" he shouted, panic clawing at his throat.
Before he could catch his breath, he sank beneath the surface, only to emerge suddenly in front of It's a Wash, gasping for air.
"Ah!" he cried out, staggering back.
Just then, his dad, Greg, stepped out of the building, a look of concern etched on his face. "Steven!" he called, a hint of relief washing over him.
"Dad! Is that you?" Steven gasped, disbelief flooding his senses.
"What? Of course! You doing alright? You look like you saw a ghost. Either that, or you stayed up all night playing a video game."
"Dad, I'm freaking out! I feel like I'm stuck in some crazy dream!" Steven exclaimed, his words tumbling out in a frantic rush.
Greg paused, taking a moment to process his son's distress. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Why don't we share some of those donuts, and you can tell me about this crazy night you're having?" He reached for a donut, taking a big bite.
"The Gems were trying to tell me something about Mom's Room," Steven admitted, his voice dropping to a whisper. "But I was so mad that I didn't listen. They're always leaving me behind, and... I guess I wanted to do it to them, too."
As he spoke, the weight of his emotions hung heavily in the air, mingling with the sweet scent of donuts, creating a moment of connection amidst the chaos.
In a small, vibrant town known as Beach City, two friends, Greg and Steven, lounged in the warm afternoon sun. Greg, ever the free spirit, strummed an imaginary guitar with fervor, his laughter echoing through the air.
"That's not so bad," he said, a grin stretching across his face. "Everyone needs some alone time now and then." He launched into an exaggerated air-guitar solo, fully embracing the moment.
Steven chuckled, shaking his head. "Yeah, it was fun for a while. But now, the whole city; everyone and everything is acting really weird." His brow furrowed with concern as he glanced around.
Greg nodded, his enthusiasm unfazed. "Well, the important thing is you told the truth." He struck another air-guitar pose, completely unfazed by Steven's worries.
"Yeah, I guess I did," Steven replied, his voice trailing off as he tried to process the oddity around him.
Greg, undeterred, began to air-guitar again. "Uh, Dad? Your advice is making less sense than usual," Steven remarked, confusion creeping into his voice.
"Well, the important thing is family and friendship, honesty, and no one got arrested!" Greg proclaimed, punctuating his words with yet another air-guitar flourish.
Just then, Steven attempted to take a bite of the donut in his hand, only to watch in horror as it poofed away into fluffy clouds. "AH! I'm still in the room! All of this—it's all a FAKE-A-ROO!" he shouted, panic rising in his chest.
Greg continued his antics, but suddenly, he vanished along with his beloved van. Steven gasped in disbelief. "AAH! This is all wrong! Huh? Ah!"
As he turned, the world around him began to dissolve. Beach City was vanishing piece by piece, its vibrant colors fading into nothingness. In a desperate attempt to escape, Steven sprinted toward a nearby hill, only to find it crumbling beneath him. With a scream, he fell into a void, darkness engulfing him.
"Uh! AAAAH! I don't want this!" he cried out, fear gripping him tightly.
Out of nowhere, a tiny floating whale appeared, its gentle voice echoing with the familiarity of Rose's tone. "What do you want, Steven?"
The boy's heart raced as he stammered, "I want to be back with the Gems!" He reached out to hug the whale, but it too vanished into thin air, leaving him feeling more alone than ever. Curling up in a fetal position, he succumbed to the overwhelming despair.
"Cut! Let's roll again!"
"Steven Universe: Rose's Room scene five, take one."
Moments later, Steven found himself catapulted out of Rose's room, crashing into Garnet and sending them both tumbling to the floor. "Oof!" Garnet exclaimed, the shock evident on her face.
Steven gasped, filled with relief. "Garnet!" In his excitement, he bit Garnet's arm, prompting a surprised, "Ow."
"You're not clouds!" he exclaimed, realizing he was back in the familiar warmth of home.
Amethyst, ever the jokester, seized the moment. "Alright, Steven!" She playfully bit Pearl's arm, who yelped in surprise. "AGHUUHH!"
"Guys, it was awful!" Steven blurted out, his voice shaky. "I was trapped in a messed-up version of Beach City. Everyone was acting super weird and—"
"You let Rose's room build the whole town?!" Amethyst interrupted, her eyes wide with disbelief.
Pearl elbowed Amethyst, frustration in her tone. "It can't handle a task like that! Thank goodness you're okay!"
Taking a deep breath, Steven sighed, his relief washing over him. "I'm sorry I got mad, guys. I get it now. Things can't always go exactly how I want."
"Oh, Steven, we're sorry too," Pearl replied softly, her voice full of understanding as the friends embraced, relieved to be together once more. In that moment, surrounded by family and friendship, Steven knew he was exactly where he belonged.
The sun cast a golden hue over the mini golf course, illuminating the colorful obstacles and whimsical decorations. The air was filled with laughter and friendly competition, as friends gathered for a day of fun.
Amethyst leaned casually against a bright pink windmill, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Mm-hmm," she said, a playful grin stretching across her face.
Garnet, standing tall and confident, looked over at her with a knowing smile. "But guess what? We have time to hang out now."
Steven's eyes widened in excitement, his heart racing. "Oh wow! Really?" he gasped, his enthusiasm infectious.
"Steven Universe: Rose's Room scene five, take one."
The cameras cut as they made their way to the first hole, Garnet slipped into a pair of Greg's old golf pants, the fabric slightly too big yet charmingly nostalgic. With a steady posture, she approached the golf ball, her focus unwavering. In one smooth motion, she lightly putted the ball, watching it roll perfectly into the hole with a satisfying clink.
Amethyst cheered from the side, her laughter ringing out like music in the joyful atmosphere. "Nice shot, Garnet!" she exclaimed, her excitement blending with the warm afternoon air.
Steven couldn't help but beam with pride. "I always get what I want!" he declared, feeling like the luckiest kid in the world, surrounded by his friends ready to make unforgettable memories together. And as they continued their game, the bonds of friendship only grew stronger beneath the bright sky.
"And cut! That was great, guys!" Rebecca said, getting out of her seat. Steven and the rest of the Crystal Gems went out of the soundstage.
Steven sees five kids. Three of them were walking, two of them were… floating? He did a double-take and saw them exit the studio. They were all mad about something.
Were they the Teen Titans, and why do they look like children?
Jim walked up. "Oh, hey, Jim, what was that about?" Steven asked.
"Oh, these five kids came into the administration's office today…" he sighed as if seeing them more than once. "I dealt with these little gremlins before… They wanted to be, and I quote from the spiky-haired boy who claims himself as 'Robin.' "We want our own show," I'm not kidding," he said, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Dude…. why didn't you ban them?"
"Honestly, that's not a bad idea." He said, pulling out his work phone. And he dialed a number. "Susan. It's Jim. Could you ban those… 'kid Titans'? They came to the studio again, asking for a show. If they come back, have Snitzel throw them out."
"You got it, Mr. Samples."
"Wait… How many times did you have to kick them out?"
"Seven times so far."
Steven cringed at the number. "Dude…" he said
"I know."
"Seven times?"
"Yes, Steven."
Steven felt empathy for the man. "Unbelievable… I can't—" he cut himself off.
"It's alright, next time. They're going to jail if they trespass again."
"What about acting for a different company?" Steven asked.
Jim sighed again. "They'd tried. Did you see Variety's story on them? They were kicked out of Boomerang to Nickelodeon."
Steven looked surprised. "Wow," he said.
"Yep, well. I'm off. I'll see you later, Steven."
"Bye, Jim!" he said. Steven walked back to his trailer to change out of his clothes for the show.
Steven got a text from Lazlo. He looked at it, he messaged him that if he wants to come for sushi with him, Clam, Raj, Clarence, Jeff, Sumo, Juniper, Ray-Ray, Numbuhs 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, in Hollywood.
I'm in. He sent him the message.
Steven went on his bike and went to Hollywood to the restaurant that he had been sent the address to.
Steven biked to Hollywood. he sees thirteen more kids standing outside the restaurant. "Hey guys!" Steven said, putting his bike in the rack and walking toward his friends.
"Hey, Steven!" Lazlo said. Clarence, Jeff, and Sumo walked toward him.
"Hey! Steven!" Clarence said.
"Hey guys, you wanna go inside?" he said. Steven and everyone walk inside. Steven and everyone sat on cushioned benches. Jeff walked up and made a reservation for them.
"Steven, hold this," Jeff said, handing Steven a black buzzer.
Steven nodded and held it for him, Jeff went to the bathroom.
They called them for their table, They got the giant sushi platter. Lazlo was sitting by Steven, cracking jokes while making Steven laugh. Juniper was talking with Numbuh 3.
Everyone was having a good time. Steven took his chopsticks and took some of the imitation crab onto his plate and ate it. "Still going on that vegetarian diet, aren't you? You and Beast Boy could be friends." Ray-Ray said, nudging him with his elbow.
"Mmm, true. They're also funny, but he and Ameythest would be friends because their so much alike."
"Yeah! They would!" Clarence said, eating his sushi with his hands.
"Uh, Clarence. You know there are chopstick helpers, right?" Jeff asked his friends.
"I know. But I like to eat with my hands!" he said. Sumo joined Clarence, picking up two rolls with his hand and making them into a fist, his fingers now covered with sticky rice.
"I'm… not hungry anymore," Jeff said, standing up and walking away from the table of unsupervised kids and teens.
Steven grabbed another piece of sushi from his chopsticks and ate his food.
"So," Sumo asked, looking over at Seven. "How was the episode this week?"
"Good, we did an episode of my mom's room in the temple. And it was…" he shuddered. "A terrifying experience."
"What happened?" Lazlo asked, setting his chopsticks down on the chopstick rest that was provided, and drank his water.
"The room started glitching and being weird, so I was scared, man," he said.
"Woah, you did have a lot of episodes like that, Cat Fingers was terrifying." Lazlo cringed at the thought of that episode.
"The episode that gave me nightmares was Frybo." Steven shuddered as he remembered that incident.
"I remember that one," he said
"Ugh, that one was terrifying for me! I know it wasn't like the editing department animated the cats to my body, but—heck! It looked realistic, man!"
"Must be."
"It was!"
Lazlo played with his chopsticks for a little bit and sat back in his chair.
"Later, guys, it was fun!" Steven said, going to his bike. He rode his bike back to Beverly Hills and opened the door.
Greg and Rose were home. Steven saw them on the couch. Greg was still wearing his earrings that Steven bought him at the Cartoon Network store in the mall, along with his three others.
"How was filming today, Steven?" Greg asked, looking over.
"Fine," he said simply. he walked upstairs.
Grg and Rose both smiled, but Steven didn't tell them what had happened when they filmed for the episode.
Steven, dressed in a Teen Titans T-shirt and shorts, got into bed and grabbed the remote, and turned on the TV.
Cartoon Network was playing Teen Titans, then. The red pop-up banner showed. 'Up Next is Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends.'
"Heck yes."
Steven then fell asleep. The TV played more cartoons that night.
A\N: Hi guys, Sorry I haven't been updating. I don't know what is going on, but. I can't seem to be updating fast enough or cranking them out as I used to.
I will post in my own time, but. It is getting harder and harder for me to keep posting this
