~Sellie P.O.V.~
I wake with a start as I feel something land on my chest.
"Sellie get up!" a familiar adorable voice says.
"Aah okay, I'm up! Whatchya need, little dude?"
"Cobalt won't play with me!" he whines, which makes a grin appear across my face.
"Well, come on. Let's go ask her together." I say, reassuringly.
While we're walking, I feel his tiny hand grab mine.
"I still don't understand, after a month, why you just 'shut down' for hours at a time. It takes from the time we get to do fun stuff!"
He says.
"Hahah, it's called 'sleeping'. Maybe I can teach you someday."

. . .
We get to Cobalt, and I notice she has a book in her hands.
"Hey, Cobalt! Do you wanna-"
She shoots me a look that says 'leave or die'.
"Okay, well, I'm up now, so Emmy can play with me only."
"Yaaayyy!" He says.
So, we start doing our routine, running around, throwing sticks and such. I know it's kinda kiddy, but Emerald is pretty young. Only about 500 years or so.
So, after that, he comes up to me and says, "I wanna they something new."
"Um, oh! I've got something! Grab my hands."
He grabs my hands.
"Okay, now hold on tight!"
"Hahah! Okay."
I start spinning around and he lifts off the ground, filling the air with laughter.
All of a sudden I notice that laughter changes to a deeper sound. And I'm not holding anyone anymore. I'm just spinning by myself. I open my eyes and I'm taller, but not much.
My hands are bright turquoise and I have an extra gem where my nose was...
"Oh jeez. We fused." I said, in a nervous tone.
"Wh- what happened?" says a higher voice, through the same mouth I spoke.
"Oh great. I should've known he hasn't fused before."
"What's "fused" mean?" The higher voice says out loud.
"Here we go..." I say, face-palming.
So I explain (for the third time) fusion and all that nonsense.
He signifies that he understands by giving me an "Ooohhhh."
Amber peeks their head out of the entrance to the log and begins to ask; "Hey what was that ligh- Oh my gOD YOU TWO FUSED?"
"Y-yes... Calm down." I say.
"WHY IS EVERYONE FUSING ALL THE TIME!?"
"Heheh... It was an accident, Ambs! Calm down!"
We- Er... I chuckled.
"Well," Cobalt interjects. "What's your name?"
Emerald (still through the same mouth as me) exclaims; "My name's Emerald."
"Heheh... She means, when two gems fuse, the gem they make has a different name, unless it's Ruby guards fusing. And, I think... Chalcedony will do."
I inform him, and everyone else.
"Hehe, I like it." he giggled.
As soon as he quit laughing, there was a flash of teal light, and... I'm holding Emerald!?
"Haha! Hi Sellie!" he says, while waving his tiny hand at me.
"Hello, little guy." I say as I wave back.
