You are a little surprised that iron asked you out. For you it sounds a date.

You: (whispers*) Steven, is she asking me on a date?

Steven: (whispers*) I think so y/n. Will you do it?

You: (whispers*) I don't know, shouldn't we be focusing on the cluster and finding jasper and lapis?

Steven: I know y/n, it's up to you though.

You: (sighs*) Alright.

You: Iron, I accept it

Iron: really?

You: Steven, will you come with us?

Steven: I'll pass y/n. I have to go on the barn and help the crystal gems.

Steven starts to run away going to the farm.

Steven: See you two later!

Steven continues to run and you and iron are now alone with each other.

At The Barn*

Peridot is staring out of the hole in the side of the barn, recording a log in her tape recorder.

Peridot: (calmly*) Log date 7 15 2... (hysterically*) I can't believe I just did that! I disobeyed my orders and went against Yellow Diamond's wishes! I'm a traitorous clod! I never want to think about what I've done again!

Peridot rewinds her tape recorder

Tape Recorder (Peridot): "I'm a traitorous CLOD!"

Peridot: (snickers delightedly*) Yehahaha! And I called Yellow Diamond a clod RIGHT TO HER FACE!

Suddenly devastated, Peridot drops to her knees, while Steven watches.

Peridot starts whimpering and sweating profusely

Peridot: I called Yellow Diamond a clod... right to her face!

Steven:Uh, Peridot? Are you gonna be okay?

Tape Recorder (Peridot):"I'm a traitorous CLOD!" (rewinds*) "-traitorous CLOD!" (rewinds*)

Peridot: (turns to Steven with a deranged smile*) No! Also where is the y/n and iron?! They should be here right now!

Steven:Y/N and Iron is hanging out with each other. But, It's all gonna work out. You're with us now along with iron.

Peridot(clings onto Steven*) You don't understand! I'm protecting a planet me and iron was once trying to destroy! I used to follow every order. Every rule. Now I'm a traitor. A rebel! (eyes turn into stars*) A Crystal Gemmmmmmm! (chuckles*)

Peridot rewinds her tape recorder repeatedly.

Tape Recorder (Peridot):"-CLOD!" "-CLOD!" "-CLOD!"

Steven: Well... That tape recorder seems to be helping.

Peridot: No it's not! It's a chronicle of my descent into madness!

Peridot throws away her tape recorder, which hits Garnet in the face and she catches it. Garnet then approaches Peridot with her tape recorder.

Garnet: You dropped this.

Peridot: (crawls on the floor and hides behind Garnet*) Get it away from me. Give it to Steven; return madness to its source! (curls up*)

Garnet shrugs and hands the tape recorder to Steven.

Steven: Are you sure you don't want it?

Peridot: (holding her face*) Whatever, it's yours now. Yours, not mine, not mine! Yours! Yours!
