Video | UN: oceangem, it's an AMA

[riptidequeen]

Okay so... I've been thinking of doing this for a bit now.

[Hi, it's Lapis again. And what has she been thinking about? You'll see.]

But anytime I mention that I'm a Gem I usually have to explain things to people so I thought "Why not make a network thing that anyone can come and ask me things"? So, yeah.

I'm a Gem, like the stones, ask me things?

Aren't all best friends interesting to have? That's what makes them the best, isn't it?

[There's a mischievous smile on his end.]

If you let him talk about art, however, I can't promise he'll stop.

[riptidequeen]

I guess so, or else they'd just be friends.

[She is smiling, just a little.]

I noticed, he seemed to be enjoying himself while he was doing it though?

[chainlinks]

Right.

[Good! Smiling is important!]

He does! He was raised, molded and shaped by it, after all. He might seem a little dense sometimes like I said, but he'll never stop talking about art. The trick is just to know that he never means to be ill-willed unless he outright says it.

[riptidequeen]

Well, that's good to know at least.

[Really she just finds it a bit off to go on about CRUSHING UP GEMS FOR PAINT, but she won't harp on about it instead...]

Oh yeah, do you have anything you'd want to ask me? Since we've cleared up everything with your friend.

[chainlinks]

Let me know if he causes any problems.

[;)]

Me? Well I guess as the owner of a small cafe, I'd have to ask if gems from your world eat?

[riptidequeen]

[Just a thumbs up at the first bit before answering the question.]

Gems don't need to eat or drink, we can if we want to and I've been trying it out. But we don't get energy or anything from it like organics do.

[chainlinks]

Huh, so that means eating is more of a hobby. [Well now time to sell it!] If you ever are in the mood for coffee or japanese curry, let me know, I have the best in town.

Are there other gems here with you? Do you want to ask questions back as well?

[riptidequeen]

I think you've... Mentioned a cafe of yours before? So I may drop by someday.

[At the mention of other gems she frowns.]

To my knowledge, I'm the only one from my world here, and no questions from me.
