"Yellow, I found a report from Pink's zoo," Blue Diamond told, holding a screen for Yellow Diamond to see, "This cannot be a coincidence,"
Yellow Diamond frowned as she took the screen and read it carefully, her face softening as she read through the report, "...That is very peculiar, I admit,"
"A human from four thousand years ago with the ability to speak, strange clothing, and then suddenly disappeared from sight," Blue Diamond summarized,
"We will have to question the human when it arrives," Yellow Diamond informed, "The team sent to Earth is behind schedule. We have not been able to get in contact with the crew, most likely since they are exploring Earth's surface, gathering information on the cluster,"
"Please, get in contact with that crew as soon as possible," Blue Diamond pleaded
"I will try," Yellow Diamond nodded

"How's it going, Steven?" Y/n asked as parked their scooter and walked to the small kid
"I'm doing fine," Steven smiled
"Getting over those post birthday feelings?" Y/n asked
"...Let's not talk about yesterday," Steven blushed
"Heh, you got it, buddy," Y/n laughed weakly
"Are you okay? You seem kind of... off," Steven commented
"Eh, must be coming down with something," Y/n gave a small cough, "Nothing some cold medicine won't fix,"
"Ah, finally," Peridot approached, "You've returned, I need your assistance immediately," Peridot said, then stopped in her place as she examined Y/n up and down, "Your epidermal pigment has changed,"
"Hmm?" Y/n titled their head
"Your skin... it's paler," Peridot told, "Hmm, is human skin supposed to change color?"
"A little," Y/n said, "What'd you need help with?"
"Oh right, yes. We've begun work on the drill, but I am having a difficult time locating a certain piece and I need you to find it," Peridot told
"What're you looking for?" Y/n asked
"Allow me to show you," Peridot said, "I have drawn a diagram to aid in your search,"
"Does the item have a name?" Y/n asked
"Err... Here, look a the diagram," Peridot grabbed Y/n by the wrist and pulled them towards the barn, "Now, as you can see by this well-drawn diagram, I need an extension for the... hand drill... that is 1/8th of an inch,"
"I can go and buy one of those," Y/n told
"Buy... That would require you to go to another location, correct?" Peridot asked
"Yeah," Y/n nodded
"This part can wait, then," Peridot murmured, "Forget I said anything! It wasn't that important anyway,"
"If you say so," Y/n chuckled
"Peridot, have you found the drill bit, yet?" Pearl called from inside the barn, "Without it we can't move forward with the drill!"
"Hey, Pearl," Y/n called
"Hello, Y/n," Pearl said as she walked out of the barn to greet them, "How is your hand?"
