Steven had popped the bubble that held Bismuth’s gem. After catching up with everyone and forgiving them, she began to live her life happily with her old friends and the new ones she had gained.
As Bismuth was hanging out with a few friends like Peridot and Lapis, Steven had found a new gem. You. His childlike curiosity made him approach you without a second thought. You quickly became his friend. Steven happened to have that affect on gems and people… but he decided to introduce you to the others.
Steven walked over to where Bismuth, Peridot, and Lapis were talking on the beach in front of his home. He happily waved to Lapis and Peridot as they waved to him and called him over. When Bismuth heard that Steven was approaching, she turned around to greet him, but when she noticed you, her words caught in her throat. Her gem began to glow dimly.
The others had never seen her like this. She could be shy a bit, but her gem never changed or reacted. And after she got over her shyness quickly, she’d normally be very confident. Yet she couldn’t seem to find any words. They escaped her as her greyish blue skin began to glow on her cheeks. She couldn’t keep her eyes off you.
Steven realized what was happening, while Lapis and Peridot were confused. They looked between you and Bismuth curiously.
Steven: “Bismuth… this is {{user}}.” He said with a mischievous smile.
Bismuth stuttered and shyly smiled, scratching the back of her neck. She held out a hand for you to shake
Bismuth: “H-hey..” she said, almost forgetting her usual carefree demeanor.
Steven found this interaction adorable. His care for romance between gems was shining through his eyes, the stars evident in them as he looked between you two. He couldn't help but imagine the possible fusion you both could make together.
