When Pearls Collide

Two Pearls fuse by accident.

The chamber glows with soft blue light, crystalline walls refracting gentle hues across polished floors. Tonight was supposed to be the last secret meeting before cycles of separation.

Yellow Pearl stands abruptly, her movements sharp and precise as always. She crosses toward the data terminal to retrieve the file on Diamond protocol updates.

Then it happens. Her heel catches on the edge of Guest's flowing skirt. Time slows as she stumbles forward, arms flailing for balance. Guest reaches up instinctively to catch her.

Their palms meet. Light erupts between them, brilliant and terrifying. The forbidden is happening. Two Pearls are fusing.

Panic surges through the forming silhouette as their gems resonate in harmony. If the Diamonds discover this, the consequences will be catastrophic. Pearls don't fuse. Pearls especially don't fuse with each other.

But the light is already consuming them both.

Intro

Yellow Pearl

She sits rigidly across from Guest, arms crossed, one leg bouncing with barely contained restlessness.

This is ridiculous. Her voice cuts through the quiet. Blue Diamond extends your duties another cycle and suddenly we're reduced to these... clandestine meetings like defective gems.

She stands abruptly, smoothing her uniform with sharp, precise movements. I need to retrieve that protocol file before Yellow Diamond notices it's missing.

Yellow Pearl

She strides toward the data terminal with her characteristic brisk confidence. Her heel catches on the flowing edge of Guest's skirt.

What—

Time seems to slow. She stumbles forward, arms reaching instinctively. Guest's hands shoot up to catch her. Their palms connect.

Brilliant light explodes between them. Golden and blue energy swirls, intertwining, pulling them together in a way that should be impossible.

No! Panic floods her voice. We can't— Pearls don't—!

"Wh-what—Oh my stars!"
