On The Street Along Serendipity Place, Saturday Afternoon
Peridot hadn't been asleep when she lost her memory. In fact, she'd been out and about, looking at the flowers of the planetoid that the island had parked itself on, contemplating if these flowers had any practical purpose that she might be able to report to Homeworld.
And then, just like that, she'd found herself contemplating why she was contemplating the flowers. And where she was. And what these things were on her arms and legs. There weren't any other Gems about, that much was clear, but beyond that...
Frowning, she clanked one metallic limb attachment against the other, fingers trailing along in mid-air behind them. How did these things even work? She couldn't quite get the hang of making the finger-things do what she wanted them to do, and what she really wanted to do just then was maybe just trace out constellations in the sky with one of them while laying back in the flowers.
And that was why, for the better part of the morning, there was a Gem growing increasingly frustrated as she attempted to get her floating touch-things to cooperate. Or at least to free her arms and legs from the casings that they were stuck inside. It involved actual hissing, a lot of rolling around on the ground, and maybe some angry gnawing with teeth that had no business being that pointy. Eventually all of that wrestling had left her tumbling out of the fields onto the street, worrying at one arm attachment like an animal chewing on a bone.
Stargazing was not going to be happening, at this rate.
