[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.]

[onlytwoexpressions]

[He transforms again.]

Then...I'll escort you on foot.

...At a reasonable distance, of course.

[riptidequeen]

Of course.

[But she's not going to move, since Magnus is the one who knows where the beach is.]

[onlytwoexpressions]

[He sighs and turns, heading towards the East.]

[Every so often, he turns to make sure she's still following.]

You're not exactly the trusting sort, are you.

[riptidequeen]

[Just gonna follow him, walking briskly all barefooted and stuff.]

And? Being too trusting can just get you into horrible trouble.

[onlytwoexpressions]

Well...your logic is sound. I can't argue that fact.

I don't trust very easily myself.

[riptidequeen]

... And yet you trust the Crystal Gems.

[onlytwoexpressions]

Because I've been the caretaker of a human myself. It's far from the easiest thing to adapt to, but doing so shows the capacity for a great deal of love, compassion, and duty.

Three things I respect with all of my spark.

[riptidequeen]

[Ha. That's kind of funny, Magnus.]

They weren't always like that.

[onlytwoexpressions]

...Then what happened?

Before, I mean.

[riptidequeen]

[Man, are they at the beach yet? Lapis really doesn't want to talk about this.]

They don't care about other Gems, that's all you need to know.

[onlytwoexpressions]

...I see.

Well...here we are.

[HOORAY BEACH]

[riptidequeen]

[Huzzah, beach!

Lapis pretty much heads right to the shoreline. Stopping as the waves lick at her feet, and she looks like she's just staring at the water as if expecting something to happen.

Something other then water being water that is.]

[onlytwoexpressions]

Are you...waiting for something?

[riptidequeen]

No.

[She moves an arm, in a gesture that would be very intimidating if the water was moving with it. Instead she just looks kind of silly.]

[FRUSTRATED NOISE.]

It's not working, it should be working my gem isn't broken...

[Lapis has also completely forgotten Magnus is here.]

[onlytwoexpressions]

Your natural abilities are gone.

You'll get them back...but it takes time.
