3rd Pov
The Barn, EveningSteven knocks on the front door of the barn.
Steven: "Dragonstone! Peridot! Lapis! I'm here! Did you forget your favorite Steven was coming over to spend the night?" There is no answer from inside. Steven looks around and spots an alien mask ornament, with antlers on top and a rope hanging out of it, at the side of the barn. "Aha! A door knocky thing! Eh!" Steven pulls on the rope, and the whole ornament falls apart. He then turns around and sees a corn field in front of the barn. "Hey, that looks new." Steven begins to walk through the corn field while holding the alien mask and antlers horn. "Peridot, Lapis! I-I'm sorry I broke your door thingy! I wanted to fix it, but I don't know how it goes together! Makes a pretty neat mask though." sees more rows of crops ahead "Wow! Did I just die and go to the back of a cereal box?" Steven steps forward, when sprinkler systems start up at his side. He screams in surprise, which catches Lapis' attention, who is activating the sprinkler systems with her water abilities.
Lapis: "Hi, Steven!" stops the sprinkler systems and flies over
Peridot: "Steven!" riding by on a tractor in the background "I'm on a tractor!"
Lapis: "Did I spray you by accident?"
Steven: "Just a little." shakes his head around to shrug off the water
Lapis: "Haha. So glad you could make it."
Peridot: "Steven! How do you like our little-" The tractor stops, causing Peridot to jolt a bit. "Ough! Experiment?"
Steven: "It's amazing. What made you want to start farming stuff all of a sudden? Also, where's Dragonstone?"
Lapis: she smiled softly "He went to the temple a bit ago, he said garnet was looking for him."
Steven: "Right. The Gems did say that they needed to go and to a mission." He chuckles "Well, that's okay, I'm sure he'll enjoy being back doing gem work."
Lapis: rolls her eyes "He get really uneasy when he can't do something with himself...even when we do stuff together..." she says in a dreamy tone
Peridot: "I have all the skills required for growing Gems. I figured, why not try growing something else?" jumps off of the tractor "Who knows? Maybe they're ready right now!"
Peridot pulls an ear of corn off a corn stalk.Peridot: "Hello, corn." waits for a response "Maybe she can't hear me in there?"examines the corn "I MADE YOU IN MY IMAGE, YOU WILL DO AS I SAY!"
Steven: chuckling "Wait, you didn't think the corn was gonna walk right out of the ground when you told it to, did you? That's not how vegetables work." Peridot and Lapis look at Steven in disappointment.
Peridot: "It's not? Well, then, what's the point of corn?" throws the corn on the ground in frustration "I have to admit, I've really been starting to miss the pitter-patter of full-sized Gem soldiers..."
Lapis: "It does get pretty quiet around here when Dragonstone's away..."
Peridot: "Come on, Lapis. Let's go disassemble the tractor." Lapis and Peridot leave sorrowfully to disassemble the tractor.
Steven: "All they wanted to do was make a living vegetable... Wait! I know how to do that! Garnet says not to lick stuff I find on the ground, but this is for a good cause." Steven picks up a pumpkin seed on the ground, licks it, and sticks it into the soil.
Time-Skip; The Next Day
Dragonstone PovI fell from the air after reverting from my dragon form, landing by the barn, seeing Lapis and Peridot's harvest, and also seeing peridot as she is dragging Steven excitedly through the corn field.
