She dropped the youngest of the group, sharply turning to the others with rage.
“Everyone gets forgotten? Everyone gets forgotten?! I NEVER FORGOT ABOUT HER, YOU THINK SHE SIMPLY JUST FORGOT ABOUT ME?! I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HER BEST FRIEND, I WAS MADE FOR HER!!” Spinel roared.
“Move on…? MOVE ON?!!! I SPENT MOST OF MY LIFE WAITING, AND YOU THINK I CAN JUST “MOVE ON” AFTER EVERYTHING I’VE BEEN THROUGH?!!!!! SHE’S DEAD, YOU DUMB DORA! SHE DIED HAPPILY, KNOWING I WAITED THROUGH A WAR, THROUGH AN ENTIRE ERA, THROUGH EVERYTHING THATS EVER HAPPENED!! SHE KNEW WHERE I WAS! SHE KNEW I WAS THERE! YET SHE NEVER CAME BACK!! EVERY SECOND FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE SHE CHOSE TO LEAVE ME!!!” She screamed, proceeding to punch the child across the face. She looked like she was going to attack again, but what Kaori said next made her stop, dropping her hands to her sides.
“Heh. “At least I’m still alive.” “ Spinel repeated, a sudden calm darkness crossing her face as she looked down.
“Do you really think I still wanna’ be alive after what happened….?”
group
(okay but spinel needs a good long hug)
(also i'll provide a short-ish response so mosis doesn't get too lost but then leave it at that)
(Yes. Yes she does.)
(Hi, so I was busy for a while and couldn't really get my character up, can I still do this? I don't have to join in right away if it doesn't work for the story but I hope I can still do this!)
(Like my character could appear just like. Investigating what's going on pretty easily based on the current situation but like idk whatever you guys want.)
group
(Do it! It’ll be great to have someone else participate!)
(Sorry I responded so late but hey I'm here now! Anyways I'll post a thing one sec.)
A loud rumbling shook the water, a large shadow being cast over from the foreign object hitting the ground and settling. It cast over the entire beach, looming like it meant no good. It didn't mean any good, in fact.
A man, pale and goth with badly dyed black hair looked up from his kayak and groaned. He had strange burn scars all over except around the tattoos of small eyes over his joints and heart, and the didn't go up to his neck or head either, striking features that tended to make people ask more questions than was comfortable in most circumstances.
"Is the afterlife seriously going to shit too? I just got here!" he complained, nevertheless paddling back to shore.
He trudged up the hill, pulling the heavy leather jacket closer around his shoulders. The world felt cold, and he was shocked to find there were people already there, as well as a pink something or someone apparently laughing maniacally, shouting about something he couldn't quite make out. The being quickly turned from manic to enraged, and he heard something about…
Waiting, someone leaving, nothing he could clearly discern.
"Hey! What the hell's going on over here?" he shouted, calm but confused to the onlookers.
(Hope this is okay. You'll find out who this mad lad is in a minute, don't worry.)
group
It seemed Spinel had finally calmed down, or at least become docile, her attacks halting as she gave her devastating implication with a broken smile.
But that didn’t last long, as her moment was interrupted by the stranger who had called out to them. She whipped around to at him, jumping back into an attack stance, disturbed and alert, and readying her futuristic scythe. She bared her teeth with aggression as she snarled angrily, looking just about ready to reengage in combat. Which she was.

(hhhhhhh sry i've kinda lost motivation today so if it's okay i'll put this on my rp todo list and come back to it when i find inspiration and/or someone else replies)
(I am sorry, normally I'd have inspiration but right now I am lacking. Sorry again, I just don't know what to post.)
group
(It’s okay)
The man grumbled to himself and let out a few unfortunately worded phrases more colorful than a Jackson Pollock painting.
"Why do you have to swoop in and ruin other people's not-super-terrible days, man?" he hiked up to meet the pink… whatever. It could be one of the Distortion's, although he wasn't sure Entities existed in the afterlife.
"Anyways, what's your deal? Who even are you? I am like, so confused right now." he said.
group
“Ey, you’re the one who just screamed at us, ya dull bag a’ flesh.” She snarled back, hopping closer.
“What I’m gonna’ do is destroy this place! Get with the times!” The pink women hissed, getting in his face and placing the scythe to his back so that it prevented the stranger from backing away.
“Now, quit being a wet blanket and just die for me! That’d make my job a heck of a lot easier!”
"I've already done enough dying, thanks." he said, bored. It was certainly a weird, fizzly sensation with the scythe… thing, so close to him, but he'd experienced far worse. Chalk that up to Gertie, he supposed. She'd likely end him if she knew he'd called her that, but she wasn't here and he wasn't so preoccupied with death like he'd been when he was quite a bit younger.
"Seriously though, who in the fuck are you? And why are you so hell bent on destroying things? I honestly want to know, most people I met who tried to destroy things were cultists and monstrous pigs with an appetite for innocent clowns. Not like the- I'm sorry, you don't need to know that. Can I at least get a name before you burn the world down?" he asked, a little dazed and unsure how to handle the situation.
(My lad's just like: screw it, I'm just gonna let this pink lady do her thing. I don't really care. I'm just gonna vibe over here and hope she either calms down or goes to therapy.)
group
(Lmao-)

“Ooh, so you think you’re a big shot, don’tcha?” The pink lady growled, eerily coiling her body around him, as if she was a pink rubber snake.
“Most a’ those would go run n’ hide from my experience. What I think you are is a dirty lil’ bastard, playing a little game before he dies…” She sneered, pulling his head back by his hair and bringing the blade of the scythe to his neck.
Her sly expression faltered for a moment and turned to one of suspicion. She hesitated a moment before replying simply; “Spinel.”
“I’d drop the pleasantries, if I were you…as I’m not the one with a rejuvenator to their throat.”
"R-rejuvenator? A weapon? Rejuvenating things?" he snorted. Rejuvenation, from a sharp pokey scythe. Now that was trying too hard.
"Anyways, I'm Gerard. Keay. Not that Way guy, the music one? Yeah. Gerard Keay. Nice to meet you, Spinel." he said flatly. Great, no escape, and just when the thought the situation wouldn't get worse.
group
“Yes, a Rejuvenator. This puppy can slice through a Gem’s form in an instance…erasing their memories and resetting them to how they were made…” Spinel replied with a grin.
“Pick one name, I don’t got all day.” She ordered, tightening her grip on him slightly. “Yeah, yeah, it’s swell ta meetcha’ too, bucko. Now, like I said, no time for introductions, I’m on a tight schedule, and I’ve really gotta’ be going, alright, hun..?”
Gem? "What are you even doing here, anyways." he asked, squirming a little in her grasp.
group
“Like I said…I’m here to kill your stupid planet and every stupid thing on it.”
She growled, shifting around a couple times to make sure he was firmly in place, but let go of his head and removed the scythe from his neck as she did so.
Gerry scoffed. "That's ridiculous. I mean, it's sooo unmotivated. Who tries to destroy the earth anymore?" he was really only pushing her to get more information, but wondered if there was entirely a point in reasoning with her. Plus, he could swear he'd cracked a rib with how tight Spinel had been squeezing him. "Who hurt you? What happened that made you act all genocidal? People have lives that matter, you know."
group
She chuckled darkly at this statement. “Oh, I know full well how much life this planet holds… Pink didn’t seem to care about how her actions effected others, why should I? All she ever cared about was her stupid colony!” The Gem hissed, tightening around him out of rage.
“This planet ruined my life, so I’ll ruin all the lives on it…” She snarled.
"Guh! Okay, having trouble breathing, I get it now!" he strained. Honestly, he was turning into this Lady's therapist at this point. She definitely wasn't done kind of monster, she was on the high end of the sentience line and seemed relatively pissed off compared to… whatever, so dealing with whatever this was would become… difficult.
"Hmm… Who's Pink? It seems she's more the one who ruined your life, not… here. Tell ya what, if you let me go I can find someplace for us to eat, maybe, and just talk it out." he did genuinely want to de-escalate, and plus, if it was a public place it was 50/50 on whether or not people would try to run or help out. So that was good.
group
“Breath? Eat? What does that mean?” She scoffed, “It’s probably unimportant.”
Spinel loosened herself, which was a surprise, seeing as her whole reason of coming here was to kill people.
“Pink Diamond? Of course she’s the one who ruined my life, that’s her whole thing; ruining lives! But this planet is why. As soon as we got the news that she had gotten a colony, she ditched me like I was some sort of…TOY!!” She snarled, clenching her fists tightly. “Do I look like a TOY to you?!!” She snapped, grabbing the collar of his shirt and looking him aggressively in the eyes. “DO I?!!!”
"I mean, you're kinda cute. Like a puppy. If you look past the murdering thing, I guess. But no, I am 98% certain you're fully sentient, and thus not a toy." he shrugged, glad she'd loosened up a little. "Are you sure I can't convince you to talk this out with me? It seems your problems are with this 'Pink Diamond', not with Earth."
group
This was a bad thing to say…all of those were bad things to say…
“CUTE?!!” She snapped, expressively making herself larger so she could loom over him. “HOW COULD A MONSTER LIKE ME BE CUTE?!!!” Spinel bared her canines, her eyes practically adding another iris to them as her hair fluffed up furiously.
“I KNOW my problems are with Pink, but it’s kinda’ hard ta kill someone who doesn’t exist anymore! So I’m goin’ for the next best thing…I’mma kill her son, and slaughter her planet…”
“Oh, I’m sure that *nobody can convince me. Not even her goody-two-shoes kid.”
"Well I mean, your nose is very… boopable. And I've met plenty of cute monsters! Like the one guy at my friend's-well, I say friend-workplace who got eaten by an evil door. He was kind of cute too. Had a weird laugh, but still."
"And if she's dead, are you sure the revenge thing is still worth it? I mean, you could kill her son, sure, nothing against that really, probably a stuck-up asshole, but why the rest of the world? I mean, one person can carry a lot more weight than a planet, in my opinion. S'personal." he shrugged as best he could in her grip, acting as passively as he could to seem less threatening because that would honestly make his situation way worse than what it already was.
group
“I am not cute!” She growled, he actually got a little frustrated blush out of her, but it was barely visible against her already pink skin. “Does THIS look cute to you?!” She asked angrily, gesturing to the black streaks running down her face, looking just about ready to slap a bitch.
“Yeah? And who are YOU to question what I want? Do you wanna’ be first in line to die..?”
It didn’t seem like being nice was working against her, or at least, his way of being nice. Maybe he needed a more gentle and concerned approach…
“Pssh, if he was a stuck-up asshole, he would’ve taken Pink’s throne.” Spinel scoffed. “An’ like I said, this place is what made her leave. It’s pretty simple. Is that too much to get through your thick skull?”
