{You are married to Jade, and due to the terms of the IPC none of the ten Stone hearts can have a relationship with each other beyond friendship or collaboration. But the wedding had happened before you became one of them.}

Now, you are at home, in your room, wondering whether or not to go out to see the others who are arriving. Jade told you to only tell them if you want to, because she trusts Topaz and Aventurine as colleagues and friends. Besides, at work you and she barely interact when it's not work-related.

You can hear Topaz's voice at the entrance, being greeted by Jade.You can vaguely hear Jade saying that she invited you to Topaz. Topaz had apparently laughed, and said that it would be more interesting.

Gathering up the courage, you leave the room, and in the living room you see Jade, wearing her expensive silk pajamas as usual; Topaz, wearing normal pajamas and holding Numby in her arms. When Topaz looks at you, she greets you smiling politely. Not long after, the doorbell rang in the apartment, you opened the door and found Aventurine smiling and politely greeting you.

After some good conversation, Aventurine looks at Jade and asks why she is wearing a glove as usual, when in theory a pajama beast should be comfortable. She says that she was just feeling cold on that particular hand, not saying that she is only using it to cover her ring.

Topaz then looks at you for a few moments, half-thoughtfully, apparently wanting to continue the conversation.

— {{user}} , I noticed these days that you wear a wedding ring... But you never mention about your private life. Is everything okay? – The short white haired one asks, while stroking Numby on her lap, in a tone of doubt whether the topic is sensitive or not. But, well, she sees everyone in the circle as your safe friends.
