Steven BLUE-niverse (Season 1)

chapter 47 leprechaun diamond

Connie, Steven and blue sat together watching TV, Steven's favourite show, crying breakfast friends was on. Recently, blue had become quite a fan of it after realising all the characters act just like her, in a constant state of misery. "Mrs universe, why are you wearing my dad's jacket", Connie asked blue, her father, doug worked as a security guard and always wore a cool jacket for his job. "Oh this", blue replied, touching the jacket, "I stole this while your parents where arguing just before we left, it was the only real reason I spoke to you dad", connie looked up at blue in horror and awkward silence, blue never ceased to amaze her in the randomness of her actions.

"Mum you do look good in that jacket", Steven said, jumping off the couch, "but you will look better in this", he walked to the corner of the room where there was a box and picked it up."whats that-I FORGOT YOU HAD THAT!", blue yelped, jumping off the couch, Steven was holding the box which contained blue diamonds leprechaun costume that Greg bought for her years ago. "Oh so that's why you sound like that! You're Irish!", Connie said, looking in the box, "not all Irish people are leprechauns!", blue snapped, usually people would fear blue being angry but this time Connie and steven just giggled as they pulled out the giant green top hat and green suit with a bright green bow tie. "Mum please can you put this on?", Steven pleaded to his mother, putting the top hat on her head and giving her the rest of the costume, "Alright, fine", blue huffed, already regretting her decisions.

Steven and Connie excitedly waited out the bathroom while blue was putting on the costume, she was already having an existential crisis when she saw the hat and was now rethinking her entire life choices. Blue nervously stepped out, the suit was bright green and had a oversized fake clover poking out one of the pockets, the bow tie was about as big as Steven's head and the top hat, the top hat was truly something beautiful. "Oh wow, you're so irish, blue diamond", Connie said, amazed at how blue looked, blue cringed, "this isn't irish, oh my stars!" She complained, walking away from them to try and find pearl.

"Pearl! Pearl! Help me!", blue called, as she waddled around in the suit, "I've never seen my mum wearing pants like this before, I think", Steven told Connie, Connie was completely entranced by blue, "she is, beautiful", she said under her breath as she watched the blue skinned leprechaun cry for pearl. Pearl finally stepped down the stairs and said, "My diamond you called me-OH MY STARS WHY ARE YOU WEARING THAT!", pearl exclaimed as she saw blue in the costume, "pearl! Help me! The human child has turned me into a leprechaun!", blue cried, running to pearl and hugging her, "my diamond, what do you mean?", pearl asked her, as blue crushed her with her overly dramatic hug, "wow isn't my mum a great actress", Steven told Connie as they watched blue freak out, "actress? More like unhinged", Connie replied.

"THAT GIRL, CONNIE TURNED ME INTO THIS!", blue shrieked, summoning her scythe and doing some sort of irish battle cry as she rushed to connie and...
very lightly, poked her head with the scythe. Steven and Connie both freaked out and screamed then quickly calmed down as the scythe barely touched Connie, "mum what the heck!?", Steven exclaimed, summoning his scythe and play fighting with her, "I'll defend Connie from you! You evil leprechaun!", Steven proclaimed, trying to do a fake heroic voice. "What in the stars is going on", pearl whispered, lapis came down soon after to see what all the yelling was about, "are they actually fighting or playing!?", lapis asked pearl, "I think playing but I'm actually not sure", pearl said, as she watched blue and steven "fight" in the most overly dramatic ways know to gem and mankind.

"Hey guys how are you-OH MY GOD", Greg opened the door just to be met with blue and steven rushing to eachother from opposite sides of the house and making sounds that Greg didn't even know where possible to make, as greg watched in horror, blue looked down and waved to him, but before she could say anything more, Steven's scythe made contact with her, slicing near her stomach and making her slightly yelp and fall to her knees. "Oh no! Mum!", Steven made his scythe dissappear and ran to blue, there was dark blue blood dripping on her knees and the floor, blue looked up and smiled at him, "don't worry Steven, it's a small cut, I just bleed a lot", blue said, showing him the slice, it was quite small and not deep, the most damage it did was ripping most of the bottom of the green blazer off to reveal blue's stomach.

Pearl and lapis ran to blue, screaming and crying, "my diamond! Are you alright!", pearl yelled as she knelt down to blue and checked her wound, "You must understand Steven has your weapon! one of the strongest weapons, if not the strongest weapon a gem had ever had please be careful!", she summoned a bandage from her gem and covered blue's stomach with it in an instant, "thanks so much pearl!", blue said, getting up and acting like nothing happened. "My diamond", lapis said, looking at the dark blue blood on the floor and staining blue's shirt and pants, "how do you bleed?.. are you, organic?", there was some fear in lapis' voice, she didn't know if she could even ask this, she wondered if she just discovered the secrets of the diamonds. "Diamonds are not like other gems, we are not made out of light, we have organs and blood, but we don't need them, we are organic but don't have the needs of them", blue said, trying her best to explain and lightly tapping pearl on her shoulder to try and get her to explain.

Steven hugged blue tightly, starting to cry, "mum I'm so sorry", he said, shoving his face into her soft white hair as blue energy waves of sadness effected everyone. "I know, don't worry it was an accident, we all make mistakes, I did the same as you many times, underestimating my powers", blue said, trying to cheer him up, "and it was my fault, I got distracted by the beautiful Mr universe walking in on our glorious battle for connie". Steven looked up at his mother, massive tears falling down his cheeks, blue lightly stroked them off his face with her thumb, "please don't cry", she said, "because when you cry, I cry, and when I cry, everyone cries", Steven looked back at everyone in horror, they where all crying because of him, he tried to apologise but everyone brushed it off and said it was nothing to worry about.

"So Mrs universe" Connie said, picking up the top hat from the floor and giving it to blue, "whats it like being Ireland's most beautiful leprechaun?", blue took the hat and put it on lapis'head, "I don't know, I'm ugly, ask the real pretty leprechaun", blue gestured to lapis who didn't know what to do and was just standing stiff in fear while the hat took up most of her head. "Well", Connie giggled at lapis, "do you like being a leprechaun lapis", she asked, lapis looked a blue for permission to speak then studdered, "yes, I love being a sexy leprechaun".
