TEXT Oct. 5th or whatever, the day Amethyst disappears

[periphrasing]

[Peridot's been waiting for the perfect excuse to text this girl since she first got her number, but. How do you strike up a conversation with someone so cool and aloof? Consulting the internet, she'd learned that waiting three days before texting is generally ideal, but she also learned that a good opening line was essential. That, she has been lacking.

But now life has handed her that line on a silver platter: It's time for math class and Amethyst isn't here at all today.]

Class is starting, you better get here fast or otherwise have a good excuse for being late.

[Heh. Nailed it.]

[periphrasing]

Like being sick or brutally injured

[periphrasing]

I apologize in advance if you ARE actually brutally sick, or injured.

[periphrasing]

I mean, sick, or brutally injured. I'm not sure if it's possibly to be "brutally sick"?

[periphrasing]

"LOL", as they say. Anyway I hope everything is OK.

[drrdrrdrr]

uhhh hay pdot whatsup hope i didnt miss nething good in class lol

[drrdrrdrr]

wuz gettin my ass kidnapped by fairies or sum shit

[drrdrrdrr]

did u kno fairies r real????

[periphrasing]

Oh. My. God. Are you actually serious?

[drrdrrdrr]

one hundo per cent

[periphrasing]

I KNEW IT WAS FAIRIES!!!!!!!!!!

[periphrasing]

What happened, how did you get away? I hypothesized that the fae were the source of your disappearance so I went to that stupid Animal Fair thing to look for you, but I didn’t see you *anywhere!*

[drrdrrdrr]

my bro came n busted me out
n slobbered all over my head w his dumb bear mouth but w/e

u went to the fair thing tho?? what was the deal w THAT

[periphrasing]

[Truth be told, Peridot feels a little silly. Of course she couldn't have been the only one looking for Amethyst... why did this not occur to her?]

>Kudos to your 'bro' then.

>For rescuing you I mean. Not for salivating all over your head.

>The fair was a *gigantic waste of time*, is what it's deal was. Some kind of party run by a 'fae of the wylds'. It called itself 'The Beast'.

[drrdrrdrr]

huh doesnt sound like the onewho took me
dont think so neway
idk tho didnt even know fae was a REAL THING until all this crap
literally all i did was eat some fruit n shes like oh i own u now ur not a real were

[periphrasing]

[The whole "fae being real" thing is a fairly new concept to Peridot too, so. She can sympathize.]

Yes, you're never supposed to eat the food they offer. That's a fairly common facet of fae lore. But why would she tell you that you're not a real werebeast? That just seems unnecessarily cruel.

[drrdrrdrr]

ok but it wasnt OFFERED she just left it out there straight up outside my aprtment?? that doenst count. and i dunno somethin about my soul or whatever it doesnt matter it was bullshit

[periphrasing]

You ate fruit that was just sitting outside your apartment? LOL! *Why*?

[drrdrrdrr]

idk i was curious

[periphrasing]

That doesn't sound like a very sensible reason.

[drrdrrdrr]

ok but dude i figured worst case cenario i get food poisoning or sth not LITERALLY KIDNAPPED 2 FAIRYLAND

[drrdrrdrr]

im a possum i eat garbage idk what u want from me

[periphrasing]

I suppose I can't argue with that logic.

[Which, hurts her to admit, because eating random food off the floor is still an incredibly stupid thing to do.]

[drrdrrdrr]

im just sayin it was kind of a lot
