I should just name these LD Part ???, or post it on ao3 at this point, there’s so many more planned. Tentadciks on gems, gems in heat, and exposition on my gem egg hell headcanons.
A hot heat enveloped her curling member, and she couldn’t focus on anything but the way the other’s walls tugged and pulled and how great it felt, along with the way her lover was drooling and moaning. It was so hot, and a whine escaped her as she jerked and twitched inside her lover. She felt pleasure overtake her and she rocked harder against the other, barely registering the fact that she had filled her with her fluids. Everything was a blur of pleasure, and her insides burned so much. Ruby whined and cried out underneath her, her curling member jerking before coating them both in her fluids again, adding another layer to the ones coating them both already.
Before she could attempt to think of what to do, her back was against the ground and her lips had been claimed, the other’s desperate member pressing into her core and she couldn’t help but moan, letting in the other’s tongue. She felt so full and Ruby’s tongue played through her lips, drawing out more moan as she jerked and rolled.
Her thoughts left her as it was replaced with pure pleasure, whining and moaning for hours. Occasionally, Sapphire would push the other down and ravage her, filling her to the brim with her fluids, before Ruby would take back over and do the same to her. Thankfully, they had no need for food or water, and didn’t have to break apart, so intense as their time together during heats were. Weeks felt like hours, and they only really stopped when the burning was finally, finally, gone.
Their senses slowly came back to them, and by the time they were back fully, both of them were too exhausted to move after such a long time fucking each other like animals. Fluids covered them both, new and old, and everything felt sore. No words were needed- they never were- before they curled against each other in their glowing state, purring and falling asleep in each other’s arms.
It took two days after their heats ended to clean up the mess they had made. It was gross, to know that some of the dried fluid was a week old or more, but they couldn’t afford letting it sit there any longer. When they had first cleaned themselves, it had taken hours to clean each and every drop of the fluid away, but it was worth it in the end for the state of pure pleasure they would go through in their heats.
In the midst of cleaning a particularly hard and stubborn mark, she heard Ruby mumbling to herself, growing concerned for her lover before a set of arms wrapped around her shoulders, a head resting atop hers.
“Sapphire… It feels like before. I… I can’t go through that again, I can’t…” Oh. Oh jeez. Did she mean that the green liquid had worked? She could always tell by the weight. Unfertilised eggs were lighter, and passed through her after a couple weeks. On the rare occasion that Sapphire had actually managed to fertilise one, they were always heavier, and took at least a month before they left her lover. They had never had a chance of hatching before, but maybe now…
“Peridot said they’d hatch, and you felt hers. They were heavy, and that means they had something inside them.”
“What if we can’t trust her? What if she’s lying? What if she was lied to? What if it’s just like before, and we wait and wait and wait, but nothing happens? I can’t… I’m so sick of it Sapphire… They’re so useless and I hate going through this. I always feel so alone, and they never hatch. I just want them to once… Just once.”
“You’re not alone. You have me,” she murmured, shifting for a moment before pulling her lover into her lap, cradling her like she knew she loved. A soft purr emanated from Ruby, though she didn’t acknowledge it, and Sapphire knew better than to try doing so herself.
“It’s different. We can’t fuse and it’s… I hate it.”
“You know we can’t stay fused all the time anyways. We need time apart, and you never mind while we’re in heat.” The other’s brows furrowed, and she started purring to ease her nerves.
“But we’re still close and intimate together, and no one bothers us. I… I don’t have to deal with the other gems, besides before I pass the geodes.” Hearing her soft words, she pressed a warm kiss to her forehead, just a simple kiss to comfort her instead of showing her anything. Ruby sighed softly, melting against her. They fit so perfectly together, it was almost like they were made to be just like this, and she knew in a way, that they had been made to fit together, but not like this. Their crystals had been connected before they had been made, but that had been so long ago.
“Shhh, I know. You’ll be okay. I know it. I’m here with you, and I’ll try not to leave your side unless I have to. You’re my little precious stone, and I’ll always love you. If you want, after you have them we can fuse again the moment you’re rested.” There was a pause, and Ruby put a hand on her stomach, her emotions clear with distress, fear, and worry.
“I… Okay, Sapphire. I’m not sure what I want to do about fusing yet, but, I’m glad to know I have you. You’re so amazing… I love you so much.”
“I love you too, Ruby.”
It took two days after their heats ended before they were sure of the weight growing inside of Ruby was heavier than normal, for the most part. They had only had three times that the weight had been heavy, and they had never hatched. Hopefully this wouldn’t be the fourth.
Another two passed before they told the other gems and were in turn told that their prisoner had been introduced to Steven while they were busy, and another three passed before the five of them had it in them to tell Steven about her geodes and everything that went with it. He took the initial telling that she had geodes well, and didn’t interrupt until Pearl had finished telling him the basics and was ready to start questioning them.
“So… Geodes are like…. Eggs?” He started, a questioning look on his face. Ruby looked uneasy at the comparison, but Amethyst was quick to nod.
“Yeah, pretty much.”
“Amethyst!” Pearl shrieked, and Sapphire held Ruby’s hand again with a sigh. She wished they would just fuck and get over it. It was hard to watch them constantly fight like this.
“Steven, I suppose you could see them as kin to eggs, but they aren’t the same. Geodes have a shinier shell, the colour of which varies depending on the gem developing inside. If no gem is developing inside, it’s a duller colour of the gem that spawned it. Besides that, the components are mostly made of minerals and such from which the young gem forms,” the blue gem told the young boy, and he seemed to be taking it all in, his brows furrowed.
“Okay… How come you guys never had any before? And how come my mom had me like she did, and didn’t just lay an egg?” Ruby squeezed her hand and Sapphire’s breath caught in her throat, but before she could say anything, Peridot was quick to pipe up.
“When gems were a younger race, they altered our gem blueprints to allow for reproduction because some planets couldn’t handle the machinery necessary for Kindergartens, and others didn’t have the resources. However, the decision was found to be faulty, and they decided upon removing a certain protein our physical forms made to allow proper geode development, but didn’t bother with removing the ability to fertilise them, because there would be none to fertilise. Some gems ended up losing the ability entirely, while other gems- known now as carrier gems- kept the ability, but couldn’t have them fertilised because the lack of the protein meant that the geodes wouldn’t accept the material.”
Steven took it all in, and Sapphire had to take a moment to go over what she had said herself. It was true, but she wasn’t sure how well their young gem would understand it. His brows stayed furrowed for a few minutes, before glancing at them again, seeming uneasy.
“Are you a carrier gem, Peridot?”
“I am.”
“What about the rest of you? Are any of you carrier gems?” At his question, Ruby squeezed her hand that much tighter and her breathing picked up. Knowing what was about to happen, she pressed her own gem to Ruby’s and leaned over to give her a warm nuzzle.
“Ruby and I are,” Pearl answered for her, and she felt grateful the ballerina had answered for them. She was aware of how Ruby got while talking about their shared problem, and knew it would be impossible for her to get it out.
“Okay.” He paused, looking at his lap. “Was my mom?”
“No, Steven. You were it,” Sapphire assured the young boy, and he seemed to brighten slightly at that.
“How did you end up having geodes then, Peridot, if the protein was removed?”
“Well, recently, the gem species is getting low. More soldier gems are being smashed in battle than we can produce in Kindergartens, and when they discover a carrier gem, they give them a couple vials containing a vibrant green liquid that works to change their physical forms so they can produce the protein again. In truth, it could be applied to any gem, but more would be needed for gems that don’t already produce geode husks.” Ruby swayed while their prisoner talked, and she pulled her closer so the other could lean on her.
“Why didn’t gems just fix it themselves when they regenerated? I thought you guys could do whatever you wanted with your physical forms.”
“If it’s within the limits to our blueprints. The protein wasn’t there for us to try and make, so we couldn’t change it. When gems regenerate too much, their blueprints get damaged and they become corrupt. If a gem did try to change their form to produce it, they could end up becoming corrupt from trying to change things that can’t be changed.”
“Alright… So… When the geodes hatch, what’ll come out?”
“Gemlings is what they’re called, and they’re practically the same as human infants. They need nutrients fed to them, and grow at a slower rate than humans. Most actually can’t control themselves much more than humans do,” Pearl explained, and Amethyst pursed her lips.
“So they’re like… Babies?”
“Pretty much, yes. From what I remember about gemlings, they’re a little smaller than you were when you were born.” It seemed that Pearl had everything under control, and she started to pull the other away, knowing she was overwhelmed by the situation, before Steven seemed to notice.
“Wait, why are you two unfused anyways?” Damn. She had hoped he would let it go, but it seemed not. Ruby squeezed her hand tightly, and she squeezed back, hearing her breathing getting faster and out of control at the direct confrontation.
“Because, Peridot had extra vials, and she gave one to us. We’re… We’re expecting geodes ourselves, Steven,” she told him, and his eyes brightened. He jumped up from the couch, running over to wrap them both in a tight hug.
“That’s great! Congrats!” Ruby froze, and she held him with one hand, the other holding tightly onto her lover’s hand.
“Thank you, Steven,” the fighter mumbled, barely returning her hug in her overwhelmed state.
“Yes, thank you. Now, please let us go. Ruby is a bit overwhelmed right now, and she needs to be away from this. Is that okay?” He let go and nodded, smiling at the two of them. She returned the smile slightly, waving a farewell to the young boy as she led her lover to their room.
Ruby needed time to calm down, and Sapphire was there to sit her down and wrap her arms around the other, planting gentle kisses on her neck. A shaky breath escaped her, slowly melting into her singer’s embrace as she worked to calm her down. She gave a few gentle nips here and there, her fighter a warm and purring mess against her in moments. It didn’t take long, and it never did. Eventually, Ruby grabbed her hands gently, her breathing slow and steady now.
“Sa-Sapphire… I’m so sensitive still, and I can’t control my shaft right now… They’re starting to press on my… Nnnngh… If you don’t stop, I’ll…” She pulled away, nuzzling against the other’s neck warmly.
“Do you want me to stop? I can keep going if you want, or I can stop. Your choice,” she murmured, and Ruby gripped her hand tighter, biting her bottom lip.
“I… Don’t. Please,” she whimpered softly, and she pressed another kiss to her neck before coating it in warm and loving kisses and gentle nips. One hand moved under her shirt to her chest, rubbing her stomach gently and knowing that her lover had a weight growing inside her that might actually have a chance this time. Before too long, she could hear her lover panting and knew her member was curling against her shorts. She stopped for a moment to glance up and assure herself of this before pressing her hand to the lump in the fabric, getting a loud whine out of it.
“Oh Ruby. You want me to touch you?” A frantic nod answered her, along with a whimper. She slowly pulled the shorts down, exposing the small red tentacle she loved to see so much. Her gentle hand pressed to the underside of it, feeling it pulse slightly under her touch. “Oh, look at you. You need this, don’t you?”
“S-so bad,” Ruby whispered, and she felt the other twitch before curling around her hand.
“You love this, don’t you? Want something in you, love?” A nod answered each question, and she moved her hand down enough to press two fingers into her core, the tentacle curling around her wrist. When the fingers twitched, Ruby whined and squirmed in her grip. It was delicious, and she loved it. She felt the other grabbing her arm by the elbow, holding her close as her own free hand moved from under her shirt to tangle in her lover’s hair, pulling her head back enough she could give her a hungry kiss.
It didn’t take much more before Ruby came, her hips rolling and loud whines escaping her lips with each twitch of the fingers buried inside her. She loved it, and felt her own member curling against her thighs, but ignored it, more worried about her lover and the state she was in. Her fingers slowly withdrew when Ruby was down from her high, and she brought them to her lips, sucking the material off before she pulled her lover into her lap.
“Thanks… You always know how to get me to relax, huh?” her lover mumbled quietly, and she nuzzled into her neck, not minding the fluids covering the little fighter. Ruby cuddled against her, purring softly and blushing when she felt the tentacle pressing against her before getting a purr back in response. “ Do you want me to…?”
“I’m happy as long as you are, so don’t worry about it. I want you to just sit here with me and relax, okay? Your senses get so overwhelmed so easy, and I know sitting here with you eases you.”
“Thank you…”
“You get worked up so easy when you’re carrying because of your hormones being so out of whack, and I’m happy to help you when you can’t control yourself,” she hummed, and Ruby smiled, her eyes drifting shut slowly.
“Mmm…” Before she knew it, Ruby was asleep in her arms, a loud and purring mess, and completely precious. Sapphire wouldn’t have had it any other way.
