Peridot runs around Little Homeworld with strings upon strings of LED Christmas lights of varying color and pure white.
Lapis and the other residents try to convince her that she's taking this a little too far but this doesn't change her mind as she takes her trusty trashcan lid and levitates it off the ground and heading up into the air with her strings of lights. "The power of these lights should make Little Homeworld as a beacon of the Christmastime season!"
She gets to stringing up the lights around every nook, cranny, rooftop and home of Little Homeworld with the strong determination of not letting the jolly fat man and his 8 magic flying reindeer skip out on this gem community on Christmas Eve.
She whirls around Bismuth's metal Christmas tree at the center making sure the lights are really well strung. "My goodness, I didn't even ask to add some lights to the tree, nice work Peridot!"
"You'll thank me once Santa Claus makes a stop here!"
She keeps at it with her lights until she accidentally tied up some resident gems but got free and put them up for Peri to save her the trouble.
Once she was done, Peridot reaches for two extension cord plugs.
"Once I light this holiday candle, Little Homeworld will be shining brighter than any star in the night sky!"
Nightfall and the green gem is more than ready to light things up. "Ready in t-minus," the gems couldn't help but join in counting down with her.
"10

2,"
"MERRY CHRISTMAS LITTLE HOMEWORLD!"
She connects the two plugs making every string of lights switch on in a very bright and blinding display but it is still a beautiful sight even from up in the sky.
It was truly something until Peridot plunged Little Homeworld and Beach City into an instant blackout from how much power she was using.
"Back to the drawing board for me."
