[video] and oh, she becomes a part of me...

[Iiiit's Peridot! ...It's a very official looking Peridot, too. Standing straight in front of her communicator with her shared room with Lapis (that looks a little bit like a barn) in the background.

She clears her throat, her expression calm, yet serious.]

I have a very important question for you all. One I hope I can get an adequate answer for.

[She presses her palms together and points her fingers towards the camera. The "booooi" fingers if you will.]

As I understand it, if someone leaves Wonderland for good, their things vanish. So what if their things are also your things?

[She seems to be doing her best to keep her cool. It's kind of working.] Th.. Thank you.

Because there are basically other copies of you just running around, doing their own thing, right where you can see them? Doesn't that make you feel... I dunno, replaceable?

[slapfight]

[.............

WELL.]

Erm. Well, that's on Homeworld, and I don't live there anymore since I defected to Earth. There, I'm the only Peridot so it's a moot point. But even if that weren't the case, I'm far superior to those other Peridots. I have metal powers and I'm smarter than they are.

[angewiesen]

Are you always this sure of yourself?

[slapfight]

[no.]

Absolutely!

[She's not a good liar, but she is aces at lying to herself.]

[angewiesen]

You'll probably grow out of it someday. Most people can't keep up that kind of confidence forever.

[slapfight]

I'm over several centuries old. I don't require further growth.

And I don't appreciate the lack of confidence in my ability to be confident forever.

[angewiesen]

Wow, several centuries? I would have guessed like, 13.

[slapfight]

13 centuries? Hah! I'd look completely different than this if I was that old, but thank you.

[angewiesen]

13 years, Peridot.

[slapfight]

[Rude.]

You can't even get certification as a kindergartner in a decade.

[she's just digging that hole deeper.]

[angewiesen]

Kindergarten? Isn't that like, school for babies? You need a decade to do that?

[slapfight]

[In the exasperated tone of someone who has had to explain this a thousand times.] It's not that kind of kindergarten.

[angewiesen]

Sure, sure. Okay. Whatever you say.
