THE SCYTHE CUTS through the air in a wicked arc, its pink electric blade crackling and pulsating with an energy that doesn’t belong on this planet. Spinel wields it expertly, like its just another extension of her shapeshifting arms, her every movement fluid and practiced. Getting the hang of it was surprisingly easy in the end — turns out a Gem like her could have strengths beyond being just a COURT JESTER after all, she’d thought bitterly at the time. Maybe if she’d learned a skill like this before, maybe if she’d changed her form back then and made herself TOUGH, hard, just like she is now — maybe, maybe, maybe then Pink wouldn’t have . . . 
NO. SHE BLOCKS that thought out before it can make itself at home in her head, focuses instead on the kid blocking her way. He’s not Steven Universe after all, but he does seem equally determined to throw a wrench in her beautiful plans. She’d been looking for Pink’s kid, had told herself all this time that her vendetta wasn’t against the whole world, just this one family in particular . . .but the longer she spends here, the more she resents every single second she’s on a planet that her BEST FRIEND ended up choosing over her. And maybe she DOES want to make them all hurt a little, even if it’s unfair. Even if they didn’t know and don’t deserve it.
SHE’S JUST GOTTA take care of this little shrimp first.
❝ I REALLY GOTTA hand it to you, kid, ❞ she says, a harsh, disjointed laugh punctuating her sentence, ❝ those are some SWEET gadgets ya got there! But just give it a rest — you’re no match for me ‘n my Injector! And hey, ya might not be a Gem, but this here — ❞ she slashes the scythe through the air again, to emphasize her point, ❝ can still pack a wallop when I use it on a human! ❞
