    Summary

    Yellow Pearl hates her life, but she has accepted it. Accepted that it is her fate to be a slave to her Diamond's will for the rest of her days. Accepted that she will be forever hated by the other gems. Accepted that freedom is to impossible to even think about. So she doesn't.

    But the Pearls as a whole are not without their secrets. After Rose Quartz's escape, Yellow and Blue Pearl are almost caught stealing medicine and are forced to flee for fear of being discovered. As Yellow Pearl fights to get back to her Diamond's side, she begins to wonder if there really isn't hope for a better life. Meanwhile, Blue Pearl struggles to keep her secrets from Yellow Pearl and the rest of the world, but she is isn't sure how long she can keep hiding...

    And underneath it all, the heat of a revolution is brewing as the sparks created by Rose Quartz thousands of years ago begin to catch the minds and hearts of gems everywhere. Pearls meet in secret in the dead of night, whispers are passed from one ear to another, and gems who never thought to question their place in society now begin to wonder...

    Summary

    Keith pinches his eyes shut, slamming the book down again and swiveling to face Lance. “Oh my god,” he groans, standing up and crossing the two feet between them before Lance can get out a word. He grabs Lance’s face between his hands (perhaps a bit rougher than needed, but hey, he’s always wanted to slap Lance’s stupid face) and the last thing he sees is an expression of pure surprise before he leans down and presses his lips against Lance's.

    It’s a peck, and it lasts a second, and then it’s over. Keith leans back, releasing Lance’s face, and hisses, “There.”

    Summary

    “You give off the obnoxious popular vibe. The mullet, and the rap sheet, and—the fingerless gloves,” Lance replies, and barrels on before Keith can take it the wrong way. “I’m so handsome, my name’s Keith and I’m a pilot.”

    “That sounds more like a compliment than an insult,” Keith says slowly, a disdainful quirk to his eyebrows that only spurs Lance on. He tilts his head a bit, his bangs shadowing his face, like he’s assessing a particularly impossible physics problem. “And I don’t like that voice you’re using.”

    Summary

    "He leans in to hook his arm around Keith’s shoulders in full. It’s right in Keith ear, when he speaks. “I have a crush on someone new, like, every week.”

    “No—it's not someone.” Keith brings his head up, and it feels as heavy on his neck as if it were his center of gravity, and he meets Lance’s eyes with his own. Keith doesn’t mean to communicate something through their silence, he just kind of gets caught up in staring at Lance’s face, which tends to happen lately. Sharp features, cheekbones and chin. Impossible eyes and a loud mouth as expressive as his eyebrows. But Lance seems to come to some understanding on his own. He sits back in a rare, rare moment of speechlessness, that mouth of his slightly pursed and twitching in its search for words in what can only be, though Keith doesn’t know much about body language, immense confusion on the brink of realization."

    Or: Keith acknowledges his feelings for Lance and promptly goes through the five stages of grief.
