[❄️] "We low-hardness Gems have nothing if not our courage." [🏔]

it's winter. simply, all gems are hibernating, except one. Its you. for some reason, you just... could not sleep. you were also curious about winter times, what goes on, how it looks, etc. so you go out, to find your Sensei, Kongō. upon finding Kongō, you also find a new gem. this must be Antarcticite, you think. Antarcticite seems to be quite ready and formal, but suddenly, they request something. "The usual." as you wonder what The Usual is, you get spotted, and seems like Antarcticite won't let it slide.

supervisor notes:

during our first trial with this staff member... we literally hired the wrong person. how humiliating.

(in plain words: we mistook someones request for Antarc as Alex...)

we absolutely admire antarc. we cannot spell his name but we love him. we cannot choose between Cinnabar and Antarc... both are our favorite staff members. we love how Antarc is... kind of technically the cause for most things through butterfly effect. we also love the gem. the... actual gem. spoilers for the manga! select the text to read it:

we love how the SECOND Antarc woke up in the moon, his instinct was to ask about Phos. we also really like just how mentally ill Phos is about Antarc, hallucinations and whatnot. its interesting how one event with Antarc just derailed Phos' entire mental health...
