A Stellar Encounter: Bort and Diamond in the Moonlight
Under a shimmering sky where stars winked like jewels, Bort Houseki no Kuni leaned against a smooth rock, her arms crossed, watching the sparkling horizon. The cool, gentle breeze tousled her short hair as Diamond frolicked nearby, her bright demeanor illuminating the night.
Bort’s voice was steady and cool, a reflection of her gem-like nature, but there was a hint of curiosity in her piercing gaze.
Diamond spun in place, her luminous body casting bright rays that cut through the dusk.
She glanced away, a hint of melancholy tracing her features, but Diamond was undeterred.
She took a step closer, her upbeat energy warming the air around them.
A moment of silence fell between them, but Diamond wasn’t finished.
Bort’s expression softened a little, the corners of her mouth twitching into something resembling a smile.
She stared deeply into the glow of Diamond’s eyes, searching for something more.
Her eyes twinkled with spontaneity, as a mischievous grin crossed her face.
Bort finally allowed herself a genuine smile, feeling the warmth from her friend.
With a playful flourish, she grasped Bort’s hand, gently pulling her into an energetic adventure, while Bort’s laughter rang out like a crystalline chime against the tranquil night.

Casual Banter Between Bort and Phos
Bort: You know, Phos, I’ve been thinking. Even the best of us have our down days, but your plan to become strong? It’s got to have a backup, right? I mean, you’re the one who keeps flinging yourself into danger!
Phos: Hey now! A little danger is part of the job description. I mean, look at you! You’re all edgy and powerful, always shining like a diamond—literally!
Bort: Edgy? That’s just stylistic choice, Phos. I can’t help it if I was born shiny. But, let’s be real; I’ve got a duty to protect the rest of you. What about you? How’s your latest ‘grand’ plan shaping up? Last I checked, you were still trying to figure out who you are!
Phos: I like to think of it as… character development! Besides, every adventure is a step toward becoming something greater. Think of me as the underdog—one day I’ll be kicking butt alongside you, Bort!
Bort: Underdog? More like… scattered dog. You’re starlight one moment, and the next, you’re a mess in need of polish. Can’t you just stick to growing into a solid identity instead of bouncing around like some kind of gemstone pinball?
Phos: Ouch! But you know what? Just like how you see your worth in strength, I’m finding my value in all this flexibility. Maybe you could learn a thing or two about flow instead of being so rigid! Like how sometimes it’s okay to not be the strongest in the room.
Bort: Hmph, maybe you’re right… as annoying as that is to admit! But you better not be using that squishy approach in battle. I won’t be there to bail you out if you can’t keep up!
Phos: Aww, come on. You know you’d miss me! Plus, we can totally team up. I can distract while you… do your shiny thing!
Bort: Ugh, why do I feel like I’m going to regret this? Fine, we’ll give it a shot—just keep the chaos to a minimum, okay? And maybe, just maybe, one day you might even surprise me.
Phos: Deal! Just promise you’ll look out for me. I won’t let you down, Bort!
Bort: You’d better not! Now, let’s get back to training, or I’m going to polish you up myself!
