opalite is such a lovely stone (or, "stone", cuz it's manmade like glass). it's different colours depending on what angle you look at it and where the light source is and what's behind it. in the light, it gets a cloudy yellowish colour like the morning's first weak rays of sun. but on a black background it practically glows blue. very underappreciated, tbh.
#eliot posts#wearing my opalite pendent with a black shirt makes me feel like i have a magic amulet#i had a steven universe oc named opalite when i was like 14#she was an early attempt by homeworld to make gems with very little resources#she was the closest they came to a success but she still was far from perfect#her body was basically falling apart at the seams and she had to regenerate every often#they declared the experiment a failure and decided to destroy her but she escaped and eventually wound up on earth lobg after the war ended#she was bad at EVERYTHING but she meant well#she was part of a team me and my cousin made up called the stardust gems. who were all gems that made it to earth after the war#the crystal gems knew they were but never enlisted them for help because they WOULD fuck everything up#it was such a funny fucking concept#and this was EARLY in the series too like peridot wasn't even introduced yet i don't think#i like to believe their existence is still canon compliant with the show#like. homeworld invades but the four of them have been lost in a cave for the past week and had no idea.
