Again, I have put the English translations below Japanese text in this narrative to make it more authentic. Remember that Apta refers to Entrapta and Fuma refers to Perfuma in this story. A joyfriend is what someone calls their non-binary partner instead of girlfriend or boyfriend. It’s as simple as that. The page for Other Gems, Andy DeMayo, and Gem Harvest on the Steven Universe fandom were helpful, as was the V.I.L.E. Academy page on the Carmen Sandiego fandom. White Diamond’s speech is inspired by William Wallace (played by Mel Gibson) in Braveheart (1995) and Lt. General Tadamichi Kiribayashi (played by Ken Watanabe) in Letters from Iwo Jima (2006), using quotes from various sources here and here. For the part about Carmen and Julia’s injuries after hitting the skyscraper, I consulted Karl Kruszelnicki’s “Dead before you hit the ground” (ABC Science), Shelby Hoebee’s “10 People Who Survived Falling From Extreme Heights” (ListVerse), answers on the Quora site for the question “How tall is 4 stories high in meters?,” Susan Donaldson James’s “20-Year-Old Survives 15-Story Fall” (ABC News), Ian Sample’s “How big a fall can a person survive?” (The Guardian), Jake Rossen’s “How Far Can You Fall and Still Survive” (Mental Floss), answers on the Quora site for the question “Would most people be able to survive a fall from the third floor of an apartment building on hard concrete?,” answers on Yahoo! Answers for the question “Can you really fall for a 5 story building and survive?,” Patrick McCarthy’s “Falling Injuries & Fatality Rates” (OffGrid), and Melinda Wenner Moyer’s “How To Survive a 47-Story Fall” (Slate). The specifications of Andy’s biplane I based on those of the Bristol F.2. Fighter, which was the inspiration for his biplane which first appeared in Gem Harvest. The distances Andy had to travel was calculated using distancesfrom.com (Pusan, ROK to Ocean City, MD and Havana, Cuba to Ocean City, MD), with Ocean City used as a stand-in for Beach City. Other distances were calculated using Google Earth and conversions made using sites like rapidtables.com. According to sunrise-sunset.org, on June 9, 2019, the son set in Ocean City around 8:23 P.M., so I’m using that as a basis. The song by Lapis and Peri is a straight-up parody of Steven’s lines from the Happily Ever After song in the Steven Universe Movie.
