"Hm... I'm not sure why he's so closed off, some olivines can be very egotistical but that doesn't seem to be it. For one I always see him giving time to the peridots where many just ignore them and for second he really listens to other gems, never assumes and goes out his way to make accommodations for others."
"His lectures are captivating... i make sure to attend them all. Of course i do- the entire point of this foundation is for the cultivation of knowledge, is it not? It seems he respects me, which i appreciate- though i've done very little yet to earn it, it bodes well for my ambition to be a professor here as well, someday."
"I see him looking at me sometimes... another distraction, I'm not sure if I have the willpower to resist this one he's just- frustrating in a way I can't explain..."
"His enhancements are a marvel, it's no wonder he ended up here... I do my best not to distract him, but i can't help but sneak looks... The way he buries himself into his work is simply- hm. I'm getting ahead of myself... I must maintain my focus. I've hardly spoken to him yet... i tend to focus so hard on my work that i forget there's others around me."
"What the... at least I can say I'm not like THAT! Ugh but... what am I saying? He's not a failure like I am, I was born wrong... b-but I'm going to get better! It should be easy to outpace this one!"
"Born asunder, the reptile grows his tail not by nature, but by tooth and nail- fighting for survival amongst the brambles and thorns... and yet, in his clawing for survival, he attacks indiscriminately, blinded to the difference of friend and foe."
"He's not creepy! He's just hurt, I'm not sure by what or who but I want to be there for him... We have to support each other, he really is quite nice when you get to know him."
"He seems to see light in darkness, hope where naught can be seen... I don't understand what he sees in me- i'm nothing but a wretched thing, cast among the valley stones, meant to be consumed and not much else- yet still i attend his lectures, trying foolishly to learn more when my purpose is equal to the detritus left in my peers footprints..."
"What a mess of a... creature."
"Whispering... cruel, vicious maker of vile and despair- I shall speak no longer, for if i do the words i utter may yet be my last."
"Hah what a brute! I mean that in a good way, us olivines are durable but you never see one truly packing on muscle like he does. His work is labour intensive so it makes sense- and I for one enjoy watching him work... I could do it all day really... haha..."
"He's a pretty gem- his mind's just as lovely. I always enjoy when he comes to watch me work... so what if I show off a bit more when he's around- It's clear he enjoys the show, heh. Makes me want to just lift 'im into my arms..."
"His lectures are captivating, that i can say with certainty... attending them and the like is one of the larger reasons I worked my way up to the foundation, after all. Plus- it helps that he's pleasing to the eye.. Helps all the more to keep my focus on him..."
"A purple olivine, so beautiful... and that hair length wow! He's gorgeous, I wonder if he knows that? Sometimes he attends my lectures, smiling directly at me the whole time it gets me all flustered... What does he intend with me?"
"Everyone praises his strength. I admit... his physique is impressive b-but that doesn't make him a better olivine! Our strength is in our minds and.... and he has that too... sigh."
"Rough fella- Definitely got some insecurities about how he came out. I try not to tease him too much for it- he's certainly earned his place in the foundation after all, just like the rest of us."
"His enhancements and drive to succeed despite the circumstances of his formation is admirable... in a number of ways i can relate to that. He always seems so involved in his work too... truly an exemplary Olivine that many strive to be."
"Tch... I don't know why he looks at me like that, I'm not up for... distractions. I'm sure he's only mocking me, they all mock me... I'm a serious scientist not a plaything!"
"Theraposa... Oh yes, something about this olivine always bothered me, that's why he's stuck on that little station... somehow he makes trouble anyway."
"I don't understand why that... that BEETLE gets all her attention... She rarely checks in with me- despite the multitude of reports I send from my station- they go, in large part, unopened... Bah! It's no matter... I will simply have to keep working to prove myself to her- even if such a task seems so much more effortless for Dr. Scarab..."
"Oh my dear Scarab, no other olivine captured my attention like you did. I hope you're finding your new life exciting... away from my palace. One day you must return and tell me all about your adventures."
"Ah, my diamond? She's very... I hesitate to describe her, I don't want to paint the wrong picture. She is a perfectly good diamond but perhaps... well... Maybe it's not for us lesser gems to try and understand them, we serve them in any way we can and I will, of course. I shall never question her."
"She makes the most darling pearls for me and my inner court, I keep her busy of course, a nacre must never tire!"
"My diamond certainly keeps me busy- not that you will ever catch me complaining- I'm thankful to be serving and creating my pearls for someone as gracious as her... Some other nacres have told me horror stories of their diamonds."
