Steven Universe- Lapis Lazuli X Male Reader

Keeping It Together

Garnet: We need to track down Peridot. We found her pod. We know she's out there somewhere. She came to Earth with a job to do and odds are, she's still gonna try to do it. That's why I've gathered you here.

Y/N: Really, I thought we were just here to help Steven fold his laundry

(You, Steven, Garnet, Pearl and Amethyst are then seen folding Steven's t-shirts together.)

Garnet: That too. The chore wheel idea you had fell apart fast.

Amethyst: Wasn't me.

(You and The Crystal Gems turn to look at the chore wheel pasted on the refrigerator, where everyone's names are struck out and replaced with Pearl's name, written in her handwriting. Pearl and Garnet exchange looks.)

Pearl: I just really enjoy doing all of those things.

Garnet: It's better if we do them together.

Amethyst: Humans should just stop wearing clothes, be a lot funnier.

Y/N: Yeeeeeaaah, Ain't doing that, Besides You guys wear clothes

(You eye the gems up and down)

Y/N: I think?

Steven: Hey! I'm a civil-i-fied part human, thank you very much. Clothing is a must. *looks at the laundry pile* Hmm... This is a lot. I bet this folding would go faster if Ruby and Sapphire were here!

Garnet: I'm sure they'd be glad to see you Steven. But I am not unfusing for laundry.

Steven: Aww.

Pearl: Garnet, you don't think Peridot would come looking for us, do you?

Garnet: We weren't her priority. She was sent here to do something in the Kindergarten.

Pearl: Do you think she's still going to try to reactivate it?

Garnet: Mmm... If she gets it back up and running, the Injectors will turn back on.

Steven: In-jec-tors? What're those?

Pearl: You've already seen them. Well, you've seen them disabled. *projects a hologram from her gem* If Peridot reactivates them, they'll pick up right where they left off, planting Gems in the crust of the Earth, where they'll incubate and suck the life right out of the ground. We can't let Peridot restart Gem production here, if we do, the entire planet will become...

Garnet: ...Janked.

Y/N: Could've said better myself

Amethyst: Garnet! *chuckles* That mouth!

Garnet: Don't worry, we'll stop her. C'mon, Crystal Gems. *approaches the Warp Pad*

Pearl: Coming! *follows Garnet*

Amethyst: As long as we don't have to fold anything. *summons her whip and follows*

(Steven continues folding his t-shirts.)

Y/N: Ya comin' Steven?

Amethyst: C'mon, that means you too, right?

(Steven quickly gets up and rushes excitedly onto the warp pad with the Gems.)

Garnet: You're a civilified part-gem too after all. *ruffles Steven's hair*

Pearl: Garnet, are you sure we should bring Steven and Y/N? This might be dangerous.

Garnet: Peridot's got nothing we can't handle.

(You and The Crystal Gems warp out.)
