So Rattlesire and I have been talking about how our gemsonas would be etc. We settled on the idea that Carnelian likes to "collect" other gems. This could mean romantically, platonically, or otherwise. When other gems like Peridot start showing up he wants to "collect" them.
Indicolite has gotten used to Carnelian's company and thought maybe they had something a bit more between them. Carnelian talks about collecting pretty gems and how he's excited gems are showing up. Hurt and jealous, Indicolite smashes the warp pads in their area. When caught, she apologizes, later explaining how she felt. Neither of them were very good at their jobs in the war and Indicolite feels like she's not very valuable or useful. Carnelian assures her that she's valuable to him.
