Homeworld
"Okay you five, Blue Diamond wants me to teach you all how to fly fast and efficiently for the upcoming Gem War."
There were five Lapis Lazulis and one Jasper. Since it took too long to address each one by their facet and cut, Blue Diamond decided to give all participants of the war nicknames. The Jasper teaching the Lazulis was referred to as Buffy and her gemstone was on her right arm.
The Lazulis were: Snoopy, gem on her nose, Crash, gem on her left foot, Bubbles, gem on her neck, Flipsy, gem on her right hand, and Brainy, with her gem on her forehead.
"Are you serious?" Flipsy growled. "How are any of us supposed to fly normally? Our gem would have to be on our back!"
"According to Homeworld statistics, for every Lapis Lazuli with a gem on her back, there are 999 Lapis Lazulis with their gems placed elsewhere." Brainy explained. "In short, this is ridiculous."
"C'mon guys! We can do it! I believe in us!" Bubbles cheered.
"Um, OK?" Crash hesitated before a pair of water wings sprouted from her foot gem. She gave a squeal of shock as she was launched in the air upside down and she flew that way till her head bumped into a wall and her foot plummeted down taking her with.
"See? How's Crash ever going to fly normally? Her gem's on her foot!" Flipsy snapped. "It's not like I'm going to do any better!"
"Either way, I want the rest of you to try as well before we go any further." Buffy explained. "Starting with you Flipsy."
Flipsy cursed under her breath before wings sprouted from her hand and she stretched her hand out as she flew up.
"*Huff* my arm is getting...*huff* tired." Flipsy panted as she struggled to stay in the air. "I...gotta..."
Flipsy let her arm down and with that so did her wings, sending her falling as well.
Bubbles's gem faced downward when she tried to fly sending her falling almost right away. Brainy tried showing off causing her to slamming her face into a pillar sending her falling as well.
Snoopy flew clumsily but was the only one to land on her feet. Her water wings withdrew back to her nose gem and she gave a wink in Buffy's direction.
Buffy blushed and looked to make sure the other Lazulis were OK.
Several days later
"I've seen giving multiple Lapis Lazulis to one teacher was a bad idea." Blue Diamond announced. "Since there are much more quartz gems than Lazulis, every Lazuli will be specially trained by one Quartz. When I call your name, decide which Lazuli you'll train or keep training."
After several hundred names, Blue Diamond called Buffy. Two Quartz already picked Brainy and Flipsy to mentor, but Buffy already knew who she was going to pick.
"Snoopy."
The Lazuli walked to Buffy's side and held her hand, making Buffy blush a second time.
"I expect our time together to be..." Snoopy used her nose wings to levitate herself and whisper in Buffy's ear. "...Delightful."
Buffy gave a small gasp and felt her whole body shivered. Snoopy gave a cute giggle and clumsily flew off.
She's going to be the death of me isn't she?
