Rutile

Rutile is one of the Gems and mainly works as a doctor. They repair the cracked or broken Gems and also handle the management of herbs, pastes, powders, and other medical remedies. The other Gems have commented on their "nice long legs", saying that they give them the appearance of a model. They are always found at work or sleeping on one side of the hall, surrounded by cupboards, boxes, and herbs. They are the partner of the unstable Padparadscha, whose body they are trying to maintain. Rutile has two colors in their hair, golden-yellow, and reddish-brown. They have a golden-yellow pixie-cut with shoulder-length reddish-brown hair above it which is to their shoulder with side-swept bangs. Their eyes are golden-yellow, while lashes, eyebrows, and other features are a reddish-brown. They wear the standard winter or summer uniform depending on the season under a white lab coat. They also wear black sandals with kitten heels, as well as black gloves and black tights that completely cover their legs. They are described as having long legs like a model. Rutile takes their job very seriously. They are known to stay up all night if need be to put a Gem back together. As a result, they are often tired and known to take naps during the day. They have also been shown to be a bit eccentric and sarcastic, and to take great pride in their job and research, whether dissecting animals or studying the physical composition of Gems' bodies. They don't take well to having their medical authority questioned. Even so, they still become easily embarrassed when pestered about things like love. They dedicate a great deal of their research into finding compatible parts for their partner, Padparadscha, who has been inactive due to their unique composition. In the latest chapters, Rutile's mental state has been broken after losing Padparadscha. They have become more impulsive and feral in nature, their hair unkept and falling straight down. Seeing Padparadscha whole and awake seemed to be unchanging of this nature however, as Rutile attempted to attack Padparadscha along with Phosphophyllite and Yellow Diamond. This has lead to Rutile becoming unable to be reasoned with, when even Padparadscha returning to them and them clinging onto the piece of Padparadscha that was given as a "gift" by Padparadscha. They appear to be unresponsive although awake.
