( Hey guys! Hope you're having a cool vacation. This is a bit of a holiday starter to go along with the other introductions that are being made, so feel free to enjoy the inaugural celebration of the new archbishop! )
It had been nearly a week
- no, two.
Two weeks since the unusual warp pad appeared in a flash of blinding blue light. Two weeks since the invisible Gem had taken her prisoner. From one frying pan into another.
Two weeks.
Great Clod had it been that long?
The planks of wood groaned in protest as the twine bound them tighter and tighter together. It would be ready to sail soon.
She never could swim, but she used to love the floating square. She clung to the control stick with glee as they bobbed along the river together. Every once a year, a war broke out in the sky. She regaled the story of its leader- a magnificent Quartz called Guy. The rebellion must be strong to ward off so many of Yellow Diamond's armies. As magnificent as they were, however, the rainbow boom canons still weren't safe. Their technicians hid under cover of darkness, aiming for their land. With no visible enemy, there was no one to fight, no threat to subdue.
She loved them. Fireworks, she named them.
Humans are so strange.
With a half-hearted grunt, the square slid into the inky black water. The giant had to admit that London's gaslamps DID look charming on the shimmering surface. The small raft rocked gently.
Peaceful.
Unnervingly peaceful.
BOOM
She summoned her helmet.
The canons were back and this time, Guy Quartz was no longer here.
BOOM
crackle
As the colors that filled the sky met aristocratic cheers, the giant was thrown from her wooden perch and into the choppy waters, followed by pieces of the former boat.
Great. Just great.

She was my commander. I carried out her orders and organized her armies. I was one of several Jaspers sent to destroy her but the politics of Homeworld are infinitely more complex than any of us were ever allowed to know. She revealed their plans.
Their sick underhanded plans.
There was no way I could serve under someone with so little dignity.

I didn't want to originally. When I was sent here, it was with one objective- crush the resistance and capture any remaining Crystal Gems. I was leading a party into the forest when, by some stroke of dumb luck, we encountered their leader. She was standing in a clearing with not a single weapon drawn, leaving her completely defenseless. It was almost as if...she was waiting for us. We didn't have to surrender, we had the upper hand, but as we fought, she started... TALKING. She spoke of our superiors. Treasonous things. She mentioned experiments we'd never heard of and orders we'd never give. I would have shattered her then, right when she became distracted... But she offered to prove it and I couldn't resist. I saw those monsters with my own eyes. My comrades.
A Quartz is bound by honor and it was then I realized the Diamonds had none. It would have been revolting to continue to perpetuate their flawed logic.

(with another loud "BOOM" she is launched back under the water and swallowed by a violent wave. She surfaces, sputtering and coughing, uttering "stupid lungs" under her breath. She looks up at Nex. I can do a whole lot more. ( She ducks under the water and appears a few feet closer to shore, propelled immensely by her giant arms. ) Sounds like you know a whole lot about being alone at sea

She doesn't surface again until she reaches the shallower part of the bank, where she rises from the mud like a creature all too familiar to the other lodgers. She places the ball in Nex's hand. ) Thanks... And that's pretty sad.

Nex smiled as she sat on the lamp post above as the ball exploded in the dummies hand that was outstretched. She had strings to manipulate the wood puppet that looked like her. "sad? Ha! A Hyde doesn't just do something with out taking a step forward with there best foot" she dropped the items controlling the dummy and smiled. "you were fun to play with and a great way to pass the time" she said wearing a black cloak with a ruffled top. Dreamer Jekyll ran up and sighed. "nex what did you do now?"
"aww my babysitter arrived" nex said sounding sad.

I definitely feel your pain though, in the course of typing this reply, it autocorrected pain to"Odin", typing to "rolling", and reply to"report". It also favors "role-play" over roleplay.

I don't know what your sitch is with wifi but if you have a reliable secondary signal, it might be cheaper in the long run to not have to pay for a monthly data plan. Plus the laptops come with more as opposed to having to buy apps that SHOULD be free. )

( The gentle doctor smiles daintily upon his colleagues, returning witty quip with witty quip. The Archbishop Augustus has a beautiful gleaming palace, shimmering with reverence. The faces of the upper class are well lit- with modest piety, of course, but still there remains a gaudy air to it. Like Christmas. Sterile. Sharp. Bitter.
Superficial.
The tall man weaves his way through the crowd, delicately but with urgency. He finds his way onto the balcony and leans gently on it with a wistful sigh, tired brown eyes following the trail of decorative explosions but only half paying attention to the display. The fireworks are beautiful, but why? What is there to celebrate? Augustus has been no different than any other archbishop thus far. The Bible condemns the different, as they all are quick to point out, but something doesn't feel right about it. Is it really a blessing to torture human beings for loving differently? is it really their loyal duty to demean science? to prevent people from learning? from being healthy? Is it really tasteful and proper to crush women completely for the purpose of continuing the same old powerful houses, even at the risk of their sanity?
was America right? )

Some displays are a bit more interesting. If you ever feel the need to travel, I recommend Australia. Their excellence is unparalleled. ( He turns his upper body towards towards Nex. ) What I don't get is why they're shooting them off HERE. You would think that a religious leader would hold firm to the idea of modesty.
