I'm going to the planet below sometime soon when I feel like it. This is an open offer to anyone to come with me. Just know that I refuse to guarantee anyone's safety, so if you can't survive in space without oxygen or on unknown planets with unknown atmospheres, you might wanna reconsider coming along.
Also I can only bring like, three people, because I don't feel like carting around more than three of you. [She holds up exactly three fingers.]
Other than that, I'll need someone to look after Pumpkin while I'm gone. She's very important to me so if you screw up I'll make you regret it.
[As if on cue, an extremely adorable sentient pumpkin jumps up onto Lapis' lap, looks into the communicator, and barks.
And then licks the screen. Enjoy your pumpkin kisses, station.]
[ooc; i'll probably rng if more people wanna go and have Lapis hit them up privately!]

[A pause as he looks her over and smiles softly at the creature she has.] You're obviously not human... would you mind telling me about yourself? [He tilts his head a little to look at Pumpkin.] And Pumpkin? I've never met anyone like you before.
[There's something about his motions that don't seem quite natural or human either. It's incredibly subtle, but it's there. And, if she's looking closely, she might spot the flicker of blue light coming from a small, circular LED on his right temple.]

Lapis Lazuli, Era 1 Gem, terraformer, yada yada. [She waves her hand dismissively.] There's no other lapis here, so you don't need my cut and facet number. [And she wouldn't give them anyway!] Pumpkin is a pumpkin. I don't know what else to say about that. [Said pumpkin barks and wags her tail. Hello, friend!]
no subject
You... [Another twitch. His programming was having a really difficult time with this one. Aliens was one thing, living gems and pumpkins was another.] I don't understand. Gem? You're a gem? [Just saying that sentence was taxing on his processor.] And that... is a pumpkin?
How...?
no subject
Yep. Sure am. How? No clue, I just know another gem put a bunch of chemicals into the ground and out I came. As for Pumpkin, Steven made her for me and Peridot.
[BORK BORK.]
no subject
And her explanation for a pumpkin-dog? Someone made it.]
Of course.
[He needed to stop trying to think about this.]
Thank you.
Please let me know when you're planning on leaving...

[AWFULLY BOLD OF YOU, CONNOR.]
no subject
[Curious as always.]
How are you planning to travel to the planet?
no subject
[Not that they can be seen right now, due to the fact she just summons them using water. Sorry, Connor. Lapis is awful.]

You're 6,000 years old and you can fly through space? [He didn't sound like he didn't believe her, just verifying information.] Do you have any experience traveling to different universes?

[He tilts his head to the side.]
To your knowledge, is this station in a galaxy that you're familiar with?
no subject
no subject
I attempted to match the constellations visible from the observation deck to any known star systems. [He pauses a moment and decides he needs to clarify.] Any star systems recorded by Earth scientists in the year 2038 where I'm from.
[Basically, this place wasn't anywhere that he knew of either.]
Based on your experience, do you have any predictions regarding the planet based on what we can see of it?
no subject
no subject
'Gems'? Is that what your people call themselves?
Early human? That would be surprising but, I suppose, it is a possibility.
no subject
[She'll twist around, so she can take a good shot of the gem between her shoulder blades.]
That's me. Everything around it? It's just a projection of solid light.
no subject
[She'd answered his question. She was a 'gem' and not a 'human'.]
A projection of solid light? I'm not sure I understand. Light is not solid. Does that mean things can pass through you? Can you physically manipulate items? [Basically, could she interact with her environment if she was made of light.]
no subject
Of course I can physically manipulate items. That's the point of me projecting a form. I can't otherwise interact with just about anything otherwise. Obviously.
no subject
[He opened his mouth and then simply closed it and exhaled, seeming to give up, a weird android sigh of defeat. Lapis was breaking physics again and Connor's programming didn't like it... again.
His LED was a solid yellow as he simply had to force himself to move on.]

no subject
I apologize, I didn't mean to imply you were lying.
[He tilted his head to the side, looking a little puzzled.] That's right... I was created by humans. [He frowned slightly.] I suppose I have nothing to compare humans to but their theories when it comes to physics seem accurate for the world in which they were theorized. Things like magic don't exist where I come from.
