It was weird reforming for the first time after being bubbled for nearly 6,000 years. It felt like no time had passed since I was removed from service. I had to be caught up on everything that had happened while I was gone.
I wasn't alone. There were tons of Rose Quartzes that had to be taught what happened as well.
After I was educated, I went to Earth. I enrolled in Little Homeschool — that's where they told us to go. It wasn't long before I made my first real friend — a Green Fluorite.
We bumped into each other at first. Everything started to glow and...I wasn't Rose Quartz anymore. It was...strange. I had never done that before.
We immediately split apart. I bumped into a building, Fluorite on the ground. "Ah! I'm so, so sorry!" I helped her back onto her feet. "Are you okay?"
Fluorite adjusted her goggles on her head, "Yeah, I'm fine. You?"
I rubbed my neck, "I could be better."
We talked for some time, getting to know each other. We went to classes together, hung out after-hours at places called "restaurants" and "arcades." It was fun.
Then we came across a fusion named Garnet.
I think everyone knew about her. The fusion that appeared in Blue Diamond's court one day — a Ruby and a Sapphire. She was an OG Crystal Gem. And, of course, she was the main teacher of the meditation and fusion classes at Little Homeschool.
She was happy around us. She talked a lot about fusion. She talked a lot about relationships. She talked a lot about trust.
She's what pushed us to try and fuse again.
This time, we stayed.
It's nice being Watermelon Tourmaline.
