Obeying the older -no, living- gray gem, Evenkite had stood outside the temple as instructed, quiet, still, and unmoving. Or so she had been. Eventually she found herself beginning to twitch and fidget as time went on. Chromite had gone in for a while now and there was no sign she was coming back. So either she had forgotten about her, or she was right about it intentionally being dangerous. The imp-like gem let out a small sigh as she waited, tugging gently at a strange of her hair.

[color=fafabe]Maybe this was a dumb idea. Honestly, what's the likelihood that Sodalite will even want to see you, never mind hear what you say? Chromite might be hurt in there for all you know, and on your behalf. 

Maybe you should just go back to the Kindergarten and hide, like Talc told you to. Wait for her to come back for you.

Before she went through with her decision, she changed her mind. First a chaotic coloured gem exited -Mars, whom she thought of following but thought better of as she saw his expression- while shortly after a familiar orange gem stepped in. Apparently unnoticed (as she often was thanks to her knack for disappearing and her small stature), Evenkite opened her mouth and then bit down on her lip, whatever words she was to utter silenced before they were formed. As quietly as she had stood, she slipped past the door as Amber entered and quickly sought out to keep her unnoticeability living, avoiding eye contact with any of the gems, keeping her figure still and out of plain sight. Right now, she felt the need to observe, not be observed. And a lot to observe there was. Chromite was clearly unharmed, and with her was...Bloodstone? The little gem felt a knot in her non-existent stomach. Somehow, this didn't seem right.

And then, when Aquamarine spoke of this truce, the little gem frowned and made her first movement, shaking her head. It seemed unreal...And foolish. Though she kept telling herself Aquamarine wasn't to blame, she couldn't help but feel more and more that she wasn't making the right decisions. If Bloodstone had called the truce she was more than certain he was up to something, and as much as she put more faith in Bloodstone than Aquamarine, there were the newborns -no, younger gems- involved as well. For their sake, as they had chosen her side over his, she worried.

Once the older blue gem left, she heard Zircon ask about what had happened to Amber. As much as she wanted to know, her mind was still focused on two things. The first was the truce.

The other was on Sodalite.

Though the little gem made no movement, her eyes were fixed on the younger blue gem. She thought for a moment for how to draw her attention without alerting the overs of her presence. She settled her gaze on the chair Sodalite was seated in. Perfect. The movement to others wouldn't seem out of the ordinary thanks to the wheels, but Sodalite, being in the chair, would know it wasn't natural. A quick glow of her eyes and the chair was lifted no more than a centimeter before it was dropped back gently, causing it to skid ever so slightly. Her gaze returned back to Sodalite, a desperate look on her face. She crossed her fingers across her lips in a gesture that Sodalite would hopefully interpret as 'say nothing', and then returned to being still once more. Sodalite could know she was there, but the others couldn't. She needed to talk to her in private.
