[Lapis visibly bristles as soon as the word "gem" leaves Magnus' mouth.]

How do you know about us? What are you?

[onlytwoexpressions]

I'm a Cybertronian. A fellow member of a differing alien race with ties to Earth.

[riptidequeen]

[Don't mind the fact that Lapis is still semi-scowling.

She's not actually very... worldly. Or galaxied? Look, she's been a mirror for thousands of years okay? That fucks a person up.]

I... I don't have any ties to Earth. It's a horrible place.

[onlytwoexpressions]

It's...hardly that bad.

Granted, humans aren't the most civilized but...well...

They do have good music.

[riptidequeen]

[Flattest of flat looks.]

I'm not talking about humans.

[Lapis only knows one human! And he was pretty okay, then again can anyone not like Steven Universe?]

[onlytwoexpressions]

Then...I'm not entirely sure what you mean. What is it about Earth you dislike so much?

[riptidequeen]

It's a miserable planet, that's all you need to know.

[Hey, now she's leaving from her little spot of hiding, which wasn't really a good one.]

And... And I shouldn't be here either. [Deep breath.]

You also didn't tell me how you know about gems.

[onlytwoexpressions]

[Magnus can see he'll have to work hard for her trust.]

[Very well.]

I am sorry you had such a poor experience there, then.

As for where you are, you're in a city known as Nautilus. It exists in a dimension between time and space.

And as for your other question, I am acquainted with two gems, as well as a young man in their care.

[riptidequeen]

[Two gems and... a young man?

Oh look, Lapis almost visibly cheers up, a little.]

You mean Steven?! You know Ste... [Ah, wait. A little gasp escapes her as she brings her hands to her mouth.

If it is Steven, cause really how many human males are hanging out with Gems?!]

[onlytwoexpressions]

[Magnus puts his hands up again.]

Yes, his name is Steven and he is doing quite well. Thriving really.

As are Miss Pearl and Miss Garnet.

[riptidequeen]

Of... of course he is.

[Well, Lapis seems to be a bit less on guard now that it's confirmed Magnus knows Steven.]

... I'm Lapis Lazuli.

[onlytwoexpressions]

It's a pleasure.

You have no need to fear me. As I said, my name is Ultra Magnus and I've taken it upon myself to serve and protect the citizens of Nautilus.

Welcome.

[riptidequeen]

[Slow blink once he's done talking.]

... No wonder you've befriended the Crystal Gems then.

[She's more talking to herself there, but whatever.]

[onlytwoexpressions]

I'm not sure I follow your reasoning, Miss Lapis Lazuli. [Yes he will use your full name.]

[riptidequeen]

[You're weird, Magnus.]

They... Hm, they have a lot of faith in Earth and protect it.

[onlytwoexpressions]

[I get that]

Yes, that is true. We have a very like-minded mission.

If you don't mind my asking...what did Earth do to make you loathe it so much?

[riptidequeen]

I...

[She's wrapping her arms around herself now.]

It's personal.

[onlytwoexpressions]

I understand, I will not pry.

Would you...like me to take you to Steven and the others?

[riptidequeen]

No!

[That came out too quickly, and too angrily.]

[onlytwoexpressions]

Alright, alright...!

Hrm. A tour then? To get you better acquainted with the city?

[riptidequeen]

[A... tour? Oh, like when Steven took her around Beach City when she was a mirror. But...]

Is there a beach around here?

[Lapis wants to test something, but she needs water. A lot of water.]

[onlytwoexpressions]

Yes, there is.

I'll take you.

[With that, he transforms and opens his driver's side door.]

Hop in and buckle up, Miss Lapis Lazuli.

[riptidequeen]

[And she's staring at Magnus.

And not getting in, how does she know this isn't a trap.]

Uhm, I can walk.

[onlytwoexpressions]

It's a fair ways away.

[Magnus wiggles his side view mirrors like ears.]

[riptidequeen]

[Da fuq, Magnus.]

That's fine.

[SERIOUSLY SHE'S NOT GETTING IN YOU, MAGNUS.]
