connieswap au character analysis

DISCLAIMER: this may never see the light of day, i mentioned it to br42 and they said it would be a great idea, but what do we know?

anyone who has read connieswap knows that the story is totally different from the source material. sure the same events happen as those in the show, but the characters themselves react differently to those situations, which domino-effect into a completely different storyline. written below are just a few of the observations i have made about the characters and why they do the things that they do. 

Connie: Connie Maheswaran, daughter of the Crystal Gem leader Citrine and the human Dough Maheswaran is being raised by the three remaining Crystal Gems: Lapis, Peridot, and Jasper (not nessisarily in that order mind you) she is caught in a horrible ballance between trying to live up to the legacy of her dead mother and carving out a name for herself (thank god she goes to therapy in the story, lord knows she needs it) 

what i notice most about connie is how much she reflects what she has learned from the gems while she was growing up: the determination that turns to stubborness from Jasper, the intellectual processing habits of Peridot that leads her to overthink things from time-to-time, and the care-free fun of Lapis that if left unchecked leads to sloppiness. much like Steven in the source material (which shall be refered to as the SM from this point forward) that balance between the three helps create a stable relationship between all of them, but also inadvertandtly puts a lot of stress on Connie to try and hold them all together. Thankfully for her the other gems are *just* emotionally mature enough to also talk to each other, and not use Connie as a medium for their own growth (looking at you SM, amythist was right, stop dumping your centuries-old complexes on a 14 YEAR OLD).

Peridot: okay, first of all i have to stop and say real quick, as much as i love P-dot in the SM, she isn’t exactly the best person (gem? one of the two). shes rude, she has overstepped her boundries when discussing other people’s feelings (see the smaller-than-average lake) and she has a tendency to focus more on herself than others. thats fine in the SM because shes a side character, and not the focus of the show, but in the AU she is one of the main focuses of the story, and therefore her actions are less justifiable. thankfully she gets a complete refresh in this story given that she has had some 300+ years AT LEAST to mellow out. 

now, back to the analyisis

Peridot’s backstory in this AU is that she was abducted by Lapis from homeworld post-rebellion, and eventually joined the Crystal Gems after realizing the potential for life on earth. because she is the only era-2 gem on earth with all the other era-1s, she is extremely protective of her limb enhancers, which she kept in working condition for the entire duration on earth despite minimal homeworld resources. when her enhancers were destroyed by Rose Quartz, she fell into a depressive slump, until after a meditative period she came to the epifany that she didn’t need her limb enhancers to still be a worthwhile member of the Crystal Gems, she unlocked her metal-bending powers (ferokinesis i know, i just can’t spell the damn word and i refuse to look it up) and more importantly, discovered new ways of merging era-1 and era-2 tech, a feat previously impossible to both earth and homeworld gems.

Peridot is extremely protective of Connie, possibly stemming from her promise to Citrine that she would take care of her, and spent the first year of Connie’s existance raising her without the support of the other two remaining gems on earth, who presumably needed the time to mourn.

What this tells us about Peridot is that she is cares deeply about her family and her charges, and often worries that she isn’t capable of doing her part, despite being arguably the most valuable member on the team with her communications and surveillance equiptment to tell the gems where their next mission is. I would guess that she overcompensates to make up for the fact that she lacks the physical strength of her companions. how this will change now that she has magneto powers, we are yet to see.

Jasper: Jasper was a soldier to pink diamond during the rebellion before Citrine convinced her that she (Citrine) was more worthy of her loyalty. the fact that Jasper may also have been in love with Citrine is besides the point. Jasper is gruff, keeps things short and to the point, and is immensly disiplined. in short, a perfect soldier, which since thats what she was created to be, makes her a perfect gem. Jasper reminds me a lot of the gentle giant trope, minus the gentle part during battle. what interests me the most about Jasper is her ability to invoke a sense of thoughtful intelect despite being the least chatty of all the gems. she has this way of saying just the right thing and nothing more, almost like a carefully calculated sword stroke. 

In the most recent chapter (ch 39) we get more context to jasper’s defection: homeworld prides itself on function; the better a gem can handle the task it it given, the more valuable it is to gem society. Jasper prides herself on being a ‘perfect’ quartz: exactly suited for her role with no failings or flaws. Despite her perfection, jasper was never able to handle one mission: defeat Citine in a fight. This cause turmoil and quite a bit of guilt for jasper, after all if she is perfect, why can’t she accomplish a simple task? This lead her to the eventual solution, either she is flawed, or her orders, and subsequently her diamond, are flawed. Eventually jasper saw that despite her ‘perfect’ diamonds efforts, the rebellion was still standing strong; with which jasper concluded that it must be her diamond that is wrong, and not herself. Even though she knows she was right, jasper still wrestles with the guilt of her decision ever day.

Lapis: ho boy, Lapis. where do i begin? Lapis was also an agent of homeworld, though through a dramatic fight between herself and Bismuth (and we are seriously never going to get that scene in cannon? *thanos voice* fine, i’ll do it myself) she decided to switch sides and single-handedly brought down homeworld’s air supperiority during the rebellion. needless to say, that kind of power needs a pretty heafty nerf to keep her in check, queue in a millenia of bad choices and even worse coping mechanisms, coupled with a large dose of PTSD and depression, possibly bipollar disorder (don’t quote me on that, i’m not a psychiatrist) and you have the most messed-up character you’ve ever seen in your life. one part crippling mental health issues, one part nuclear bomb, life for Lapis is not that fun, despite her insistance that nothing is wrong, shes totally fine thank you. 

despite her mental issues, Lapis tries so hard to keep herself in check. cracking jokes and making every situation as light as possible to keep the mood from getting too serious, binge-eating on donuts and reading mangas to distract herself from any anxieties, I think she lives in perpetual fear that she might one day crack under all the pressure of her life and sink another continent under the ocean. she copes by removing herself from the stressful situation, regardless of the consiquences because, to her at least, not destroying the world is more important than facing the dissapointment of Jasper and Peridot. man, she really needs to see that therapist that Connie is going to. 

this got way longer than i thought it would be, if its popular, i’ll post what i’ve got on the other characters in a part 2

[dharr5]

Just finished up this ConnieSwap fanart! I think it turned out pretty neat!

[askfwm]

it is I the FWM, I have been looking through the Steven Universe multiverse and I actually want to show you guys the different worlds I found. I'll show you what the Steven from these differnet timelines looks like and tell you what each world is.

(PS: I'll label each world by earths, just like Marvel and DC, like earth-1, earth-2, etc like that)

Earth-1 (the main timeline) this is the canon earth, the one we know from the show Steven Universe, you can guess what this earth is, because you have seen it on tv

Earth-1 is discovered by Rebecca Sugar

Earth-2 (Steven Lazuli) before you say anything else. no this is not an earth where Lapis is Steven's mother, this is a timeline where Lapis Lazuil managed to break herself free from the mirror and kidnapped Steven when he was about 1 year old, years goes on and Lapis takes care of Steven like if he was her own son. this timeline has a lot of interesting things escpecially with the characters, Garnet doesn't exist, Pearl's a secret agent of a human organization and let's not forget about Wildcard. yeah this earth is great!

Earth-2 is discovered by Zipper mom

here’s the fanfiction

Earth-5 (Gemswap) now if you think Steven having hearing aids on earth-4 is weird then this earth is him having glasses too! of course the reason is that he's smart now, as this earth has some personalities swaps, Steven has Peridot's smartness while Peridot got Steven's happiness, also Pearl swaps with Amerthyst, Jasper swaps with Lapis and Garnet is the same.

Earth-5 is discovered by  mushroom-cookie-bears

Earth-7 (Infected Gems) this earth is fudged up! zombies everywhere and the only survivors are Steven, Connie, Sadie and Peridot and have to survive wave of the undead horde from the pink controller. I don't want to be in this universe if you are killable...

Earth-7 is discovered by InfectedGemAU

Earth-9 (Nora Universe) rule number 63

Earth-9 is discovered by Noraverse

Earth-10 (Mirror Boy) this earth has someone named the Mirror Boy (or as we known him as Steven) who has wings. basicly if Steven had Steven's life, which means Steven had a good reason to stab Bismuth...

the discovery of this AU is unknown

Earth-11 (Connieshift) connieShift is a universe where Steven is full human and Connie is Half-gem... that's it, basically the timeline is the same but some things are different because Connie is smarter.

Earth-11 is discovered by  mechandra

Earth-14 (Steven Diamond) on this timeline, Steven's mother is Yellow Diamond, which means this Steven is evil... so if you wonder what evil Steven would be like, earth-14 is your answer

Earth-14 is discovered by baixinha-su

Earth-15 (Quartz) this is a timeline where Rose was shattered during the final battle of the gem war, the crystal gems were victorious, but Rose was in two pieces, one to the gems and another to homeworld, homeworld use the gem to create a hybrid and Quartz was born. Quartz is loyal to yellow diamond and vow himself to destroy the Crystal Gems and take back the planet earth.

Earth-15 was discovered by  Evil-Ekat

here’s the Fanfiction

Earth-25 (Fresh) three ways to tell you what this universe is: 1) a universe where everyone acts like Dippy Fresh 2) the SU version of Underfresh 3) a universe where 90s raves are highly popular that everyone wore bright clothing, dance to raves and behave like rappers

Earth-25 is discovered by me

there are other earths but some of them the Stevens are basically the same as Earth-1 but there will be more to come, just need to dig deep within the multiverse.

side note: some of these are made by other people and not me.

More edits XD Next time I’ll like to include the diamonds now that we know the truth about Rose. xD

[unicornclutter]

yay! I finally did a bit more motherswap since the new episodes proved one of the headcannons that holds in the swap true! I did a bit of a redesign of Lemon Jade to make her colouring a bit better and make her hair resemble a lemon blossom.

We also have the lion equivalent who is a maned wolf that Connie named Pitumbara because she’s a nerd and the alt crystal gems.

Soda is the garnet equivalent, Jasper is Pearl and Peridot is Amethyst. I have reasoning for each and yes Sodalite is a fusion of two cannon gems.Jasper and Peridot don’t look all that unique but I couldn’t resist putting Jasper in a waistcoat and Peridot’s appearance has some solid reasoning behind it

[gabriellawrites]

Hello everyone!

So, this is my writing sideblog! I’m Gabriella_Marie on AO3 and GabriellaGadfly on FF.net (though I’d recommend that you check out my AO3 instead - there’s stuff on there that I can’t post on FF.net because they don’t have the fandoms up, I always post on AO3 first, and there’s formatting I’m able to do there that FF.net doesn’t allow.)

Anyways, feel free to send me asks or message me, or ask me questions about anything! I’m always down for that!

Here's a sketch of Connie with water wings.

[mewaponny]

I made some art

Its Lion from Steven Universe as a housecat! He's supposed to be a Maine Coon, and I made him specifically for the Connieswap AU. His ears and fur tufts are supposed to resemble an inverted star(to replace his star-shaped mane), while secondary tufts make an upright one.

@connieswap​

[wyrmrrow]

the connieswap au and mumswap au both have the same switching roles with garnet-jasper pearl-peridot and amethyst-lapis and tbh i kill for that

[la-ro-ki]

colored some storyboards and made them @connieswap bc i adore this AU

the first was done the way i normally color and the second was more like the traditional SU style
