Diamonds and Lunarians: A Chat Between Yellow Diamond and Phos
Yellow Diamond: You know, Phos, I really don’t get you sometimes. What’s with all the fascination with the Lunarians? They’re just… well, they’re crazy!
Phos: Oh come on, Yellow! They might be ‘crazy’, but they’re so fascinating! There’s so much we still don’t know about them. And besides, haven’t you ever wanted to understand why they come after us in the first place? It might reveal a lot about our own existence!
Yellow Diamond: Sure, I get that. But haven’t you felt the power of being a gem? We’re beautiful and durable! Why seek answers from those who wish to destroy us? It seems… risky and a little foolish, don’t you think?
Phos: Risky? Maybe! But you know what they say, fortune favors the bold! And besides, I’m tired of just sitting here, polishing our shiny selves while the world out there is a chaotic mess. I want to know why we exist beyond just being gems—why not look for the truth?
Yellow Diamond: You’re more relentless than a gemstone under pressure, aren’t you? I admire that about you, but I’m all about maintaining order and elegance. Those wild explorations of yours, they often lead to trouble, you know!
Phos: Trouble? Maybe! But isn’t that where the adventure is? And you know, you could join me! Just imagine—solving the mysteries of the Lunarians together, maybe even changing the fate of our kind!
Yellow Diamond: Ugh, and sacrifice my precious time for some risky escapade? That sounds delightful… not! But you know what, Phos? I do appreciate your enthusiasm. Maybe there’s a balance to be found. After all, a little thrill has never hurt anyone… right?
Phos: Exactly! Besides, who else will balance your priceless poise with a dash of spontaneity? I promise I won’t let you get hurt—just a few adventures, and we’ll be back in time for tea!
Yellow Diamond: I can’t believe I’m actually considering this. Just don’t expect me to wear that ridiculous outfit you wore while spying on the Lunarians again, okay? My aesthetics must remain intact!
Phos: Deal! But I can’t make any promises if a stylish cape suddenly pops up at a thrift store! Alright, how about we start planning our first adventure?
Yellow Diamond: We might be in for quite a ride, Phos. Just remember, sleek and stylish—my standard!
Phos: Always! Now, let’s get brainstorming on how to charm those Lunarians and figure out how to turn this mystery into an epic legend!
End Scene!

An Unlikely Conversation: Yellow Diamond and Phos in the Gardens of Amon
Setting: The sun casts a golden hue over the tranquil gardens of Amon, where vibrant flowers bloom and the sound of nature harmonizes. Yellow Diamond lounges on a sun-drenched rock, their sharp edges glinting as the light catches them. Phos, a rather curious and enthusiastic yet somewhat clumsy character, approaches hesitantly.
Phos: Hey, Yellow! Mind if I interrupt your… sunbathing or whatever this is?
Yellow Diamond: (glances over with a mix of amusement and annoyance) It’s called relaxing, Phos. Something you’d know little about, I presume? What is it this time—more questions about your missing arm?
Phos: (grinning sheepishly) Well, I was thinking maybe I could trade some wisdom for the sunshine? You could teach me your impeccable style of being… you know, crystal clear in your reasoning!
Yellow Diamond: (raises a brow, intrigued) Crystal clear, huh? You’re quite the flatterer. But let’s be honest, Phos—are you sure you’re ready for the truth? It tends to shine a little too bright for some.
Phos: (nods vigorously) Absolutely! I mean, how hard can it be? Just a sprinkle of your wisdom, and maybe I won’t end up falling flat on my face every time I try to make a decision!
Yellow Diamond: (chuckles softly) Alright, let’s start with something easy. What do you think separates our roles in the fight against the Lunarians? Is it just about strength or something… more intangible?
Phos: (pauses, pondering) I guess I always thought it was about power—like you can’t be a good Houseki without being super strong. But then again, I’ve seen you take a step back when necessary, weighing your options, right?
Yellow Diamond: (smirking) You’re beginning to understand. It’s not just physical strength that defines us; it’s also about clarity in purpose and a keen assessment of our surroundings. Sometimes, knowing when to push and when to retreat is the real test.
Phos: (eyes lighting up) So you’re saying I shouldn’t just rush into battle with blades swinging? Maybe that’s why I drop things so often!
Yellow Diamond: (smirking again) Precisely, little Phos. Perhaps avoiding a breakup with gravity would work wonders for you. Besides, being… what do you call it? Clumsy adds a certain charm to your persona.
Phos: Charm? Is that what you call it? I was thinking it’s more like a walking disaster! But hey, I’ll take it!
Yellow Diamond: (smiling knowingly) Embrace it, Phos. Every diamond, even the rarest, has its flaws. It’s what makes us unique. Just remember, don’t let those imperfections blind you from your potential.
Phos: Wow, I really needed to hear that. So maybe I can become stronger in different ways, not just physically! Thanks, Yellow! You’re like… my personal gem of wisdom!
Yellow Diamond: (shaking their head) Let’s not get carried away now. I simply prefer to shine, unlike some who seem intent on dimming their light with self-doubt. Now, if you’re done with your shallow flattery, I need to return to my sunlight before you turn it into a cloud of chaos.
Phos: (laughs) Fair enough! But I’ll be back for that wisdom—don’t think you can dodge me forever!
Yellow Diamond: (with a playful glint) I look forward to your next disaster, Phos. Let’s see how you shine next time.
