Aquamarine stood quickly, weapon drawn but not pointed at the the enemy in front of her but definitely ready for defense. Her fingers gripped her weapon tightly, anger mixed slowly in with the hurt as she resisted the urge to touch the white strip she put on her dress during regeneration as a reminder. [color=7bcdc8]"You have no right to call me that anymore. It is Aquamarine to you. If you were more level headed than maybe you would have checked to make sure you finished off one enemy before continuing onto the next. This is a reminder not a scar....true scars aren't able to be seen."[/color] she spoke coldly, fighting off the stir of emotion that wanted to show. She knew Blood would just use it to his advantage if she did bring any look of weakness. Aqua knew what he was doing but is words struck a cord in her which pulled hard on her heart. Emotions be damned, she had been alone for thousands of years and in her gem with constant pain as she had to heal. It had been a long time for him maybe but it felt almost like yesterday to her as her last moments had played on repeat. She started laughing, tears flowing down her face as her dark blue hair fell like a curtain over it,[color=7bcdc8][b]You still don't understand?! After all this time! You don't see why I find you bad?! [/b]I am not biased when it comes to Homeworld. I stated facts of what happened and why the war happened. Homeworld gems aren't to be trusted if they are anything like they were before. They are not to be trusted when they lie to your face which has been proven very much as of late. Homeworld is all about order, everything falling perfectly into place....I miss my home planet but I don't miss how everything is ran....I miss seeing the galaxy but I will stay here and stand up for this world. I will defend the humans, the gems born here and this planet."[/color] she said shakily, her face finally looking at Bloodstone. [color=7bcdc8]"I...[/color], she started, so many things she wanted to say but held back, staying silent for a good moment before changing what she was about to say. [color=7bcdc8]"I never stated my opinion of you to them. You are the one that brought that up."[/color]
