It was weird, really…
…It came out of absolutely. nowhere. 
Peridot was sitting against Steven’s bed, watching Camp Pining Hearts with him as he ate those…popped corn things with a side of twisted candies…
…Until the teen suddenly got up like he saw some gem get brutally shattered, blushing profusely and slamming the pause button on the remote control…
Again: it came out of absolutely. nowhere! 
“Uhm…are you okay, Steven?" The smaller gem asked, glancing at the other worriedly. 
“What!?” The curly head teenager squeaked out, looking at the paused TV and then looking back at Peridot, “M-Mhm! Yup! I’m fine. Totes fine. Superb even.” The boy said nervously, fiddling with the remote controller as he refused to look at the gem next to him nor the small television now.
Peridot raised a confused brow, looking at the screen which was just Percy and Paulette’s talking paused. 
There wasn’t anything odd or weird happening…
…So…why did that he pause it in the first place? 
Besides, Steven watched this episode prior to Peridot watching it…so why was he so nervous all of a sudden?
“…Are you going to press play?” 
“Yeeeeeees...” The chocolate brown eyed teen said almost too quickly as he dragged out the singleword comically. 
“…So…thehen why don't you?" She giggled, trying to reach for the controller as the younger did literally everything in his power to not allow her to. “T-This episode sucks, Peri! Y-You don’t understand!“ Steven cried, putting the remote high in the air so the other couldn’t reach. 
“So???” The green gem huffed in amusement, “When has that ever stopped us from watching before???” She exclaimed as she swiftly snatched the object from the taller gem, trying to press play. 
The fluffy haired teenager let out a short squeak, trying to retrieve back the electronic. 
The two playfully fought, each of them trying to gain the upper hand as the remote got thrown and shoved like the last freshly baked biscuit. “Just give it back!!!” The teen said desperately.  
“Uhm…nohoh? I want to see what makes this episode so appalling for you to watch!” Peridot snickered in amusement. 
"It’s not appalling!”
“…You don’t even know what that word means, do you?”
“…W-WHATEVER!!” The younger gem huffed, starting to get more desperate to get the remote controller from the other but the other in question just simply pushed the teenager to the side, pressing play again as Steven let out a very well-timed gasp.
The episode started to play again and the fluffy haired teen got one of his pillow’s and put it up to his face, groaning loudly. 
The green cladded gem scratched her head in confusion about the weird action but didn’t question it…
…Too much, anyway…
Paulette was reaching for something on the cabin’s upper counter by using a stool— which— Peridot could relate to 101%.
And as Paulette was searching for…whatever she was searching for, Percy came into the cabin, of course, making his presence very much known. 
As the episode played out, Steven pressed the pillow more and more to his face, looking away from the TV as the audio bounced around the walls.  
Acceptance was the first step to healing, I suppose…
Percy snuck behind Paulette and tased her sides before wrapping her in a hug and tickling her stomach…how cute. 
The red head let out an inhuman screech, flailing her arms around at the new sensation as the blonde continued to tickle her mercilessly. 
An small all-knowing smirk spread over the shorter gem’s features, shooting a glance to the other as the floofy haired teenager’s face basically luminated all the shades of the color red. 
Now, the green-hued gem was the one to pause the TV, setting down the remote as she fully faced the sixteen year old, “Oho…” 
"Shut up…" Steven gritted through his teeth.
“Oh?”
“Shuhut up, Peri!!”
“Oh~?”
“Peheridot, Ihi swear—!” Steven shouted, squeaking loudly as he felt a small poke to his side, “N-NohoHO!! Peheri doohoo NAHAT!!” 
The older laughed lightly, starting to pinch around the younger’s sides, “What~? Don’t do whaaaat~?” 
“Y-Yohou knohow whahat!!” The brunette giggled fearfully, his laughter spiking as the other gem digged her thumbs into his hips, “GYAHAH— hic! PEHERI NAHAH N-NOHO!!”
“Ohhhhh Peeercy~!” Peridot said dramatically, “I don’t appreciate you trying to tickle me earlier…looks like I’m going to get my revenge~!” 
The teenager just shook his head back and forth, lying on the bed as he tried to free himself from the other’s wretched hands. “So this is what you were so flustered about…interesting…” The green cladded gem mused.
“N-NOHO IHIHI WASN’T!! NOHO IHI AHAM NAHAHAT!!!” Steven shouted, trying to pry the other’s hands away from him but he soon fell into loud, booming cackles as Peridot lightly traced around his gem. 
“Huh…Amethyst wasn’t kidding when she said this was your worst spot…”
“NO!! HIC HIC NOHOHOHA! IHIHI’M HIC GOHONNA GEHEHET HIC YOHOU BAHACK!!” 
“I’d like to see you try.” The shorter gem said simply as she blew a raspberry on the other’s gem, trying to hold back laughs as Steven let out the most loudest squeal known to man before full on belly laughing.

New Sensations
Tumblr media
TickleTober Day 7, Fidget:
Summary: Peridot ends up accidentally tickling Lapis and doesn’t understand why she’s laughing. Lapis shows her.
Characters: Switch! Peridot, Switch! Lapis
Warnings: None, just a tickle fic!
Peridot was a very expressive person. Temperamental, aggressive, egotistical, always so sure of herself and confident even when she had no place to be. It didn’t seem like pairing her up with Lapis, much less having the two live together would end of anything short of disastrous. But it worked. Despite Lapis being reserved, blunt and forceful, Perdiot’s invasive nature revealed the better parts of the two of them, the desire for healthy connection, a love for the new world around them; Peridot showed Lapis that their was more to life than just living. Lapis too saw past Peridot’s initial impressions to recognise her as the passionate, supportive determined gem that she was, leaving the two as a beautiful dichotomy of blue and green.
Lapis picked up on some of Peridot’s more smaller quirks as well. Her tendency to go non-verbal when she was upset, the excited tone in her voice whenever she got the chance to explain something and, most adorably, the way she moved. Lapis could practically feel the joy in Peridot emanating from her movements, she was hyper, frantic, unable to sit still most of the time. Peridot often talked with her hands, though Lapis noted that she always had to be doing something with her hands, rubbing them together, holding them behind her back, she couldn’t just sit still.
Lapis noticed it now, when the two were sitting on their shared balcony on the barn, when the sky was a blackberry colour and the air was frigid and cool. She’d all but zoned out, the static noise from the TV (Camp Pining Hearts as usual) being the only thing keeping her awake and providing a dim glow of the couch. Peridot was sitting cross legged, intrigue spilling from her eyes, whereas Lapis had slumped over on the couch, lazily following along. Her real interest laid on Peridot, while her body was mostly still, Lapis took note of the way her legs shook whenever something excited happened and the way her fingers was wriggling and flexing about, itching for something to do. Wordlessly, she placed her hand in Peridot’s lap, to which she looked down at it, confused.
“You know, if you want something to mess around with, and stuff,” Lapis explained bashfully, but snuck a glance at Peridot’s face, overwhelmed by her smile, who seemed to take this as a big deal. Willingly relinquishing her control didn’t seem like something Lapis would do for just anyone, it made Peridot feel special. Special to her.
“Thanks!” She tried to keep it casual though, gently taking Lapis’ hand in her own, starting to play about with her fingers. It felt oddly relaxing, the feeling of her fingers being pulled apart and scrunched back up, or Peridot’s fingertips rubbing her knuckles. She flipped Lapis’ hand around so that it was bottoms up before starting to trace the lines in her palms, over and over again, Peridot probably liked how soft her skin felt there.
Lapis’ face twisted slightly as she thought the urge to smile, nonchalantly covering her mouth with her hand. Up until now, Peridot’s touch felt dull, but nice given how warm her hands were compared to Lapis’ freezing ones. But something about how she was so gently tracing her fingers against Lapis’ palms was already threatening to make her crack up, the tingly feeling already coursing through her arm.
She managed to keep her composure, for a bit at least, though Peridot’s fingers remained steadfast. She started tracing against Lapis’ fingers like how one would doodle in a sketchbook, drawing little shapes and patterns, zig-zags, squares, circles. Lapis decided it was much, much worse to know where Peridot’s fingers would go next as opposed to not knowing, knowing she’d just have to sit there and take it.
Well, she could just pull her hand back but how could she disappoint Peri like that? Plus, this wasn’t totally awful…
Lapis’ breaking point was when Peri starting using her nails, starting to draw bumps between her palm lines. She couldn’t help but crack up, starting to cackle as she figured to just let her hand slip down from her mouth, showing off a rare smile of hers.
“Lapis, you do know this part of the show isn’t meant to be funny, right?” Peridot asked, tilting her head in a perplexed fashion at Lapis’ outburst.
“Yohohur tickling mehe,” she informed her, though that did nothing to help Peridot, who slowly blinked at her.
“What’s ‘tickling’?” Peridot sounded out the word carefully, all she was doing was touching Lapis’ hand, how could this be different from any other forms of touch?
“I-It’s whehen you tohohuch someone and it mahahkes them laugh,” Lapis offered, she’d only learned about it through Steven who didn’t know more than that himself, so she wasn’t really sure how to explain.
“How could touching someone make them laugh?” Peridot asked, dissatisfied. Like most things relating to touch, this ‘tickling’ thing eluded her. Though, at that innocent enough question, a little idea sparked in Lapis’ head on now she could help Peridot understand this.
“Here, why don’t I show you?” Peridot considered this for a moment before giving Lapis a slow nod in confirmation, and was promptly hoisted into Lapis’ lap. She curled up comfortably, being much shorter than the other gem. Her head was tilted upwards to look at Lapis, confused but content.
“I’ll go slow, okay?” Lapis noted, knowing that Peridot wasn’t the most touchy person. Delicately, she placed her hand on Peridot’s stomach before shallowly kneading her fingers against her skin. Peridot felt her body grow ridged and tighten up, her breath getting caught up in her throat, suddenly feeling a compulsive need to both cling to Lapis’ hand whilst simultaneously batting it away.
“W-whahaht is thiiihihis?!” Peridot squealed, her still body starting to come to life, wiggling and flailing about in Lapis’ lap. Lapis secured one arm around Peridot’s waistline to prevent her from tumbling down onto the floor.
“Tickling,” she offered simply, digging in her fingers a little deeper which earned a ton more cute snickers from Peridot.
“It’s-ihiht’s like pahahahain, but nice!” Peridot decided, still trying to wrap her head around the whole thing, Lapis being so light at least allowed her to think. She didn’t want to get away, but it was as if her body had developed a mind of its own, one that oh so desperately wanted this to stop.
“You like it, huh?” Lapis noted, starting to grow a little more bold at that information, starting to squeeze around Peridot’s hip and the bottom of her side with the hand wrapped around her waist.
“Pfft-bahahahaha, yeahahah, dohohohon’t yohohohou?!” Peridot screeched, all her little giggles and squeaks being squeezed out of her, softy pounding her feet against Lapis’ thighs. Lapis blushed lightly and averted her gaze at the question, focusing instead on squeezing up and down Peridot’s sides.
“This isn’t about me,” she decided, not technically lying. Peridot was squirming like a fussy child, shifting and tossing and turning; it felt good to do that, like she was letting go of all the excess energy she still had in her body, resulting in a frantic relaxation.
“M-my sihihihihdes are sohoHOHO bad!” Peridot squealed, coiling her arms around her face to try and hide the bright blush that was appearing for whatever or reason.
“Oh, really?” Lapis asked, fully slipping back into confidence as she began digging her thumbs deep into Peridot’s sides, travelling up and down the pudgy skin. Lapis made sure to give special attention to her lower ribs, plucking and squeezing at them.
“OHOHO CLOHOHOD, LAHAHAPIS, WHYHYHY?!” Peridot screamed, mouth opened up wider than she thought was possible as bleating laughter joyfully, uncontrollably poured out of her mouth, like she was overflowing with ticklishness.
“Just, let me know when your ready for this to stop, okay?” Lapis asked attentively, a little worried about how much of this Peridot could handle, especially since this was her first time. Peridot barely lasted a few more moments before her grip on Lapis’ dress tightened, kicking her feet all around in the air.
“PLEAHAHAHASE STOHOHOHOP!!” Peridot choked out through her laughter, to which the tickling ceased almost immediately. Though Lapis’ touch didn’t leave her just yet, tenderly rubbing up and down the gem’s sides to brush away any lingering tickles while Peridot caught her breath.
“There there, it’s all over,” Lapis comforted her dutifully, much to Peridot’s appreciation though it did make that little blush of hers worse.
“Thanks, uh, that was really informative and..” Clod, why was it so hard to say she just enjoyed this stupid thing? “enjoyable, so thank you, for that.” Peridot voiced, looking away shyly.
“It’s no problem,” Lapis smiled at her, her hands leaving Perdiot’s side finally, leaving the gem sitting in her lap. Peridot shifted about, the shorter gem sitting up on her knees to be at eye level with Lapis, something ecstatic evident in her expression.
“So, your also ticklish, huh?” Peridot asked, for some reason finding it easier to talk about someone else’s…sensitivity rather than her own. Lapis, on the other hand, did not, a little stunted before she nodded slowly.
“Would you let me tickle you then?” Peridot asked with zero tact, her openness about this subject just worked to fluster Lapis even more, who couldn’t really deny that she would want that.
“Just uh, keep this between us, please,” Lapis asked coarsely, not willing to explain right now that liking tickling was a bit more than embarrassing for her.
“Whatever you say!” Peridot agreed immediately, not thinking to question it. She thought for a moment, both her and Lapis could be a bit iffy about touch sometimes, so she started by just hovering her fingers next to Lapis’ armpits, unknowingly instilling a terrible sense of anticipation in the poor gem. Suddenly, she snuck her hands beneath Lapis’ armpits, wiggling about four fingers against each one.
“Ahaha-hahahahaha!!” Lapis’ laughter came out a little hoarse and awkward, she wasn’t used to laughing so much, though Peridot was being lovingly gentle, making it easy to give into the sensations.
“Wow, Lapis, I didn’t expect someone as strong as you to be this ticklish!” Peridot praised her, wearing a blissful, happy expression, as opposed to Lapis’ timid giggling.
“Thahahahnks, I thihihink,” Lapis responded though the appreciation in her tone was obvious. Lapis’ arms clamped down to her sides, causing Peridot to wiggle her fingers free, deciding to focus on Lapis’ stomach. Her nails scribbled against the soft fabric of her dress, sometimes going in circles, other times just randomly skittering her fingers all about her torso.
“Nohohohohoho!” With her arms now free, Lapis buried her face in her hands and pounded her feet against the floor, occasionally wiggling around or jutting sharply whenever Peridot switched spots.
“I see why you seemed to enjoy uh, tickling me Lapis, this stuff is really fun, we should do it more!” Peridot babbled out, even though she wasn’t trying to tease Lapis, she was doing an impressive job at it, blots of dark blue covering her cheeks.
“I-ihihihf you wahahahant to..” Lapis offered meekly, though Peridot knew that she wasn’t the type to do something to appease other, she must really want this.
“Thanks!” Peridot cooed appreciatively, starting to get a little more experimentative, Lapis had been solely tickling her upper body before, and Peridot, ever the completionist, wanted to test out some other spots. She started off with her upper thighs, tracing her fingers down there from Lapis’ tummy as to not catch her off guard, before kneading her fingertips into her thighs.
“Eeeek!!” Lapis started bucking around even more, Peridot hopped off of her lap to allow her to squirm, going back to sitting cross legged next to her. Lapis brought her hand to her face, gently biting down on it to muffle her loud squeaking, which Perdiot found pretty cute. Scientifically speaking, of course.
“Wow, are everyone’s legs this ticklish or is it just you?” Peridot asked earnestly, only fuelling Lapis’ embarrassment, who flailed her legs about in the air a little harder.
“I-I dohohohn’t kn-eeeep!!” Lapis squealed as Peridot pinched the underside of her knee, all her thrashing about had left her pretty exposed. She tried to correct that, tucking her legs in closer, though this just allowed Peridot to keep on scribbling against her thighs for a little while, still trying to gauze Lapis’ sensitivity, and how comfortable she was. She was blushing, but that wasn’t necessarily bad, and she was actively bringing her legs closer to Peridot…this was alright, Peridot concluded. Still, when she ended up tucking Lapis’ ankles together beneath her arm, she made sure to pause and turn back to her to make sure that wasn’t taking it too far. Lapis still made no attempt to stop Peridot, who at this point was able to guess that she was enjoying this. Neither of them were prepared for the gem’s reaction once Peridot started crawling her nails around Lapis’ sole.
“PFFT-HAHAHAHAHA, PEHEHEHRIDOT!!” Lapis screamed with laughter, twisting about on the couch, getting more squirmy than ever before. Not even her hands could muffle her laughter, which dazed Peridot slightly, a little blush coming onto her face. She never expected a reaction like this from Lapis of all people, but she was definitely pleased with the result.
“Wow, I found a real bad spot, huh?” Peridot noted, before deciding to stop, not wanting to tucker out Lapis too much. Lapis huffed tiredly, leaning against the couch, and Peridot, for support with her legs tucked tightly to her chest. Lazily, she tried to fix her messy hair, which had gotten wrecked from all her squirming. Peridot helped.
“Yeah, I didn’t even know I was that, uh, ticklish.” She quietened down on that last word, mumbling it into Peri’s shoulder. Peridot relaxed against the couch, tenderly looking at her drained companion.
“Well, you took it like a real gem! Thanks for helping me understand that tickling stuff, Lapis!” She smiled, to which Lapis returned it.
“Your welcome and thank you for, uh, you know, being so cool about it.” Lapis forced out. Peridot deserved to know, to be appreciated.
“Yeah, well I am pretty great,” Peridot smirked, placing a hand to her chest, “your welcome.”

au writing shit idk
heres the Rough Plan for my first few eps:
ep1: the au branches off of canon in the final SU ep, Change Your Mind. renamed to Change Your World. when white yoinks the gem out of steven and pinksteven reforms and whiteasks W H E R E I S P I N K the response is something along the lines of "i am right here, but fuck you im not talking to you." (girlboss) and white gets the "im a child, what's your problem" and has the perfectionist meltdown, then steven's like "sorry but we gotta head out" and they're like "PINK WHAT THE FUCK?" steven goes "im not pink just leave earth alone" the gems agree and give steven The Legs™️.
pearl latches onto the idea that rose is still alive in there. (didn't write that tho just had it cut to this next bit oops) her and greg build a thing to connect to the gem that will essentially connect to pink/rose im just gonna call her rose damnit and allow her to communicate w everyone. shes like "...hey guys. uh. sorry for trying to kill myself i guess that didn't work but i have been minecraft spectating steven for the entirety of his existence with no ability to do anything but think and watch" pearl has a lesbian implosion, everyone's all happy n shit. steven eventually asks about the lying and she's like "yeag i done bad there. i just wanted to keep you guys together" (now that i think abt it there was no mention of bismuth here.. oops,) garnet gives her a Garnet Specil motivational speech and she's like "i missed you too garnet" (i forgot to mention, garnet violently explode-unfuses and ruby+sapphire are just bumbling with happy when rose spoke) amethyst has her own moment (she thought this was all bullshit and started playing fortnite upstairs but between games she heard rose and a p p e a r e d)
anyway rose then is thinking "oh man i gotta talk to so many ppl" and realizes eh guys nothing to worry abt just a HAPPY TO LISTEN, HAPPY TO STAY, HAPPILY WATCHING HER DR- but we should go there NOW" so they do, spinel is understandably distraught and breaks the gemspeaker in half but feels bad about it. she comes with the gang to earth, they show her around, a new gemspeaker is made and they reconcile. yippy! also spinel ate one of ALL. big donut flavors. sadie allowed this just for on e because steven is the LORD AND SAVIOR OF THE STEVEN UNIVERSE haha funny.
anyway she and bismuth talk. bis is kinda like "yeah i wasnt very gamer sorry about that herhee" again ignoring that SHE lied about the bubbling, conveniently forgot to explore that conversation for ease of writing and so i didn't need to go "how do i utilize my 2 iq points to channel these characters and get them to have a coherent, consistent to character conversation about this situation"
peri and lapis are called over by bismuth who doesn't say shit to them for the surprise. lapis is like "yeah ok hit me" peri is more curious. rose speaks, peridot fangirls and lapis is like "oh shit that's historically significant " peri is like "I NEED TO RESEARCH:)))" and runs off. spoiler: gem cloning
bis brings up the idea. rose is like "yeah that sounds legit" (the gem cloning conundrum took me way too long to understand. i drove my friend crazy. "hey can u explain every single quantum detail of this in the most verbose way i dont understand" but eventually i understood it JUUUUST enough to write it lmao i still don't get it)
rose n steven talk in roses room. all happy n shit. greg is told abt the plan and hes like oh shit i gotta clean up and steven is like "you know her standards. she don't give a shit" hes like "yeag"
peri makes progress! she made a little clump!! (explaining the gem cloning: theyre making essentially an empty gem with the powers but no consciousness inside. when its ready, white will take steven's gem out again, rose reforms, and the new gem gets ever so graciously stabbed into his belly where the old one was.)
peri tells steven its gonna take a year. he's like "well okay better than like hundreds of years" then he goes off to talk to the diamonds. he brings the speaker with. rose lets out the thousands of years of distrust and anger at the dismonds and they are humbled even more than when they got pinkd and rose is like "you WILL heal all the shattered ones i don't give a shit" and theyre like "whatever you say little one" (yes they do indeed heal the fallen. probably with regular shipments of steven fluid. that sounded wrong but im not a freak like that hes still 14)
also they go back home and steven talks to rose abt "you told the diamonds you literally wanted to die are you fr?" she explains and hes like YOU FATHERFUCKER, YOU ARE AMAZING AND YOU CAN'T DO THAT (crying)"
next episode is just year-long filler but i made it actually good by making it essentially a montage of lapis and peri in the barn becoming lesbian for eachother. finally, a controversial move on my part, they decide to overcome lapis's fear of fusion and fuse for stevens birthday. their fusion is turquoise (took way too long coming up with a fucking name) and can corrode (water + metal) and can morph/control metal (liquify n stuff. definitely not taken from a lapidot fusion concept i found on google images.) garnet is like "hey pearl look at these silly lesbians " pearls like "damn relatable" garnets like "yeag"
a week or a few after the bday, the gem is finally ready. everyone is excited until steven asks how this is gonna work. peri is like UHHHHH... 😊 and lapis is just "eh just take that one out, stick this one in!" peri goes NNNO- but after some damage control and telling everyone steven will be fine hes like "well i better get some good sleep then. big day!"
there's more but im done typing my fingers are about to go peridot and fuckin fly away let me know if you want the like 1other episode and the minisode after that

Steven Universe Weapons Graded by Practicality in Actual Combat
Garnet:
There's a reason gauntlets aren't a standard weapon of warfare, and that reason is range. If you want to hit someone with your gauntlets, you have to let them get pretty close. Which might easily be closer than they even need to get to hit you, if their weapon gives them any range at all. Just remember how Jasper got Garnet with the Gem Destabiliser in The Return before Garnet had a chance to get a hit in.
That being said, Garnet's gauntlets have two points in their favour that I wanted to talk about: 1.) They protect her gems, which would otherwise be extremely vulnerable. When in combat, you'll all but certainly have to use your hands to attack, deflect or even just catch yourself when you fall. Garnet's gems would be at a constant risk of cracking without her gauntlets. And 2.) Garnet's gauntlets can be launched like rockets, which at least partially negates the range problem.
Overall assessment: 5/10, saved by the special features
Amethyst:
Like gauntlets, real life whips don't fare too well as implements of war. Unless you can get it around your enemy's neck, the best thing you can hope for is that you'll be able to hit them hard enough to make them drop their weapons. Also, it would be pretty difficult not to hit your allies with it by accident.
However, the way Amethyst's whip works negates all of these problems. Not only can Amethyst get her whip wrapped around her enemy and then squeeze them until they poof, she is also strong enough to either slam a wrapped up enemy into the floor or walls hard enough to take them out, we see her grab a boulder several times her size and use it as a flail in Steven vs Amethyst. Her weapon also has the additional perk of being useful to restrain an enemy, and just as a little cherry on top, can apparently also produce electric(?) shocks.
Overall a ridiculously good weapon, easy 10/10.
Pearl:
Spear: Spears are (well, were) the most commonly used real life weapon for a reason. They can be used both one- and two handed, both to stab at mid range and to throw at long range, and Pearl's seems to be suitable to all four. She also uses it to slash at her opponents like a glaive, and can shoot energy balls(?). However, Amethyst's whip is still more versatile, so I'm going to rate Pearl's spear 9/10.
Trident: I'm sorry, Bismuth, but the two extra stabs per attack aren't worth losing the slashing and making the throws more difficult in my eyes. 7/10, one point deduced for each.
Swords: Also popular for a reason. I don't think I need to explain why swords are good, so I'm just going to say that since Pearl's swords don't have any magical properties, I'm going to give them a simple 7/10 and move on.
Steven:
A real life shield is not really a weapon, but we've seen Steven's shield be thrown like a boomerang, and it seems to be pretty effective. That being said, this attack is at the very least much more difficult in mêlée, by which I mean if you're holding something off with it, you have to wait and pray that someone else will help you out, because you're not getting off any attacks now.
4/10 with the caveat that I'm unsure if this should have been rated here in the first place.
Connie:
We already did swords. 7/10.
Peridot:
Limb Enhancers: They're not solely weapons, but they have weapon functions, so I decided they count. Mainly, I think her blaster should be rated 8/10, as it seems to be much more destructive than Pearl's energy balls, but can only be used to either directly hurt your opponent, or collapse structures on them.
Metal Spike: Well, it worked, I guess? In all seriousness, if she got good at impaling people with it, that'd be a 7/10 for a regular spear equivalent.
Soda Cans: Look, Peri, if you were going to throw human metal objects, you should have picked the cars. 1/10 for comic relief.
Lapis:
I'm pretty sure "The Ocean" doesn't generally count as a weapon, but if it did, it'd be a 1000/10. There's a reason Lapis had to be kept away from the main plot.
Bismuth:
I don't know how to evaluate the shapeshift weapons, but the Breaking Point has hilariously low ratings. It's very short range, can not be used to block or parry, and needs to hit one exact tiny bullseye on a moving target. 2/10, and we don't even need to debate the ethics of war.
Jasper:
Helmet: Congratulations, we've found a weapon that requires you to get even closer to the target than gauntlets! In all seriousness, Jasper's helmet is a very impractical weapon. Not only does it have a small range, Jasper also has to lower her head and thus limit her field of vision when attacking. It does protect her gem, but not as well as Garnet's gauntlets protect hers, seeing how the visor thing is broken in Jailbreak, but Garnet's gauntlets never have been.
0/10, I honestly believe she'd be better off fighting with her bare hands
Destabilizer: This basically comes down to how many times you can use one of those. If it's unlimited, your opponents' only chance is to fire at you from a distance, and I'd rate it 11/10. If it's a one or two uses and then you need to recharge or get a new one, it's still an 8/10, but you'll want to have another weapon on hand.
Opal:
Opals bow is ridiculously good. It can hit a bazillion targets at a time and auto bubble them! And it satisfies my inherent bias for long distance weapons! What more could you want? Basically, Opal took a bow, which is already a great weapon, and then buffed it by a thousand.
12/10, the real reason we see so little of Opal is that she's too powerful.
Sugilite:
Flails were pretty rare weapons historically, probably because a weapon that will hit either you or your ally like a cartoon boomerang if you miss is too much of a liability. Also, momentum makes swinging it slower than everything we've seen before. Overall, I agree with the historical judgment. 3/10.
Sardonyx:
War hammers are much better documented as historical weapons than flails, and much more effective than I initially assumed. Apparently they were useful because they can knock you out through a metal helmet. If Sardonyx' hammer had a pointy end instead of two flat ones, it could also be used for grappling, but as it is, I'm afraid the lack of versatility will keep the score at 6/10.
Smoky Quartz:
I can't reasonably use real life yoyos as a comparison for Smoky's yoyo, so I'll treat it like a more controlled flail: A weapon that can hit around obstacles up to the longer end of mid distance and be recalled easily. Also, it can grapple and create tornadoes. Overall, it's to Sugilite's flail what Amethyst's whip is to, well, real life whips.
10/10 weapon, no notes
Rainbow 2.0
We never see Rainbow fight with their umbrella, but we do see him use some sort of telekinesis with it. If we assume that the umbrella can be used to stab an opponent (if it can't, I don't think it can be classified as a weapon), I'd give it a reluctant 4/10, since it's still not very good at taking anyone out, but the telekinesis could be pretty useful defensively.
Sunstone:
I have no earthly, or indeed alien idea as to how one would go about fighting with suction cups. I'll grade this one not applicable.
Obsidian:
All the advantages of a regular sword, but it can also easily cut through metal, and, if the lava is to be taken seriously, stone, so it can also be used to dismantle your enemies' fortifications. 10/10
Ruby:
Basically the same points as Garnet's gauntlets, except she's more limited due to having even shorter range and only one gauntlet. We don't have proof as to whether she can launch hers, but I decided to assume she can, on the basis that it has to originate somewhere.
3/10
Rose and Stevonnie:
I'm going to guess that the sword and shield combo is probably better than just a sword, and definitely better than just a shield, but I don't want to give it a 10/10, because it can't compare to the versatility of my other 10/10s, so I'll give it an 8/10 and call it good.
Eyeball:
A handheld knife strikes the lowest step on the weapons ladder. It heavily skews the odds in your favour if your opponent is unarmed, but doesn't have the range or damage output to do much against anything on this list(except Peridot's soda cans, and technically Jasper's helmet, but 1.) Jasper could beat Eyeball barehanded and 2.) Eyeball would never attack Jasper).
2/10
Topaz:
A fairly common weapon for a while, but it can't do anything other than smash things. I'll give it the same rating as Sardonyx' war hammer for the same reasons. 6/10.
Aquamarine:
Look, I know it's kind of a grey area whether this counts as a weapon, but that little staff was scary. It can freeze any number of opponents? Of seemingly any power level? With no apparent time limit? 20/10, how are you supposed to fight this?
Bluebird:
A cutlass is a sword. 7/10. 9/10 if I count the barrage of ice cutlasses. Very good weapons, it's just that Steven and Alexandrite are vastly more powerful, so the quality of her weapon didn't end up mattering.

“Oh, Lapis!” Greg called out, waving to the blue Gem sitting on a beach chair in front of the beach house and looking at her phone, as he came around the cliff. “Did you see Pearl get back from – wait, what happened to the roof?”
“Oh,” said Lapis, looking up, “Peridot and Amethyst were talking about Steven’s Diamond powers, and Peri wanted to test a hypothesis.”
“About whether Steven was strong enough to destroy his roof?”
“Oh, no. We all know he is already,” said Lapis matter-of-factly. “Peri’s been working on a way to free Pearls from their programming, and she’s been looking for a test subject for weeks.”
“Wait, she didn’t ask Pearl Pearl, did she? Pearl’s been free for thousands of years, right? I’ve never seen her take orders from any–” He stopped mid-sentence as the realization hit (cut off his words as he had seen Pearl do many times since Steven surrendered himself to Homeworld).
“Yup,” said Lapis. “Apparently Peridot in her genius had the idea of asking Steven to test whether Pink Diamond’s authority transferred to his gem, thus making Pearl a suitable test subject.”
“Yeesh,” said Greg. “Hold on, if there are two person shaped holes in the… did Pearl throw my son through the roof? Did Steven actually go along with this?”
“Oh, no, of course not,” said Lapis. “Peridot and I were over to visit when she brought this up to Steven and Amethyst, and Pearl came in right as Amethyst was suggesting possible – experiments.” She rolled her eyes. “Something about making Pearl recite an – egg man announcement?”
Greg stared.
“And as for me,” said Lapis, turning her attention back to her phone, “I’m just enjoying the show. And filming.”
“What sh—”
They were interrupted by Peridot running down the beach, screaming, Amethyst beside her, both being chased by Pearl, spear in hand, who was being chased by a very frantic Steven yelling, “Pearl please stop! I would never make you do that!”
Lapis waved to Peridot.
“LAZULI GET DOWN HERE AND HELP!” screeched Peridot.
“Gee, I’m sorry, P, we weren’t going to actually do it!” yelled Amethyst over her shoulder.
Garnet strolled up with a, “Sorry, I was busy,” and crossed her arms to watch as Pearl yelled after the fleeing duo, “AMETHYST YOU ARE A BITCH-ASS MOTHERFUCKER! YOU SHAPESHIFTED INTO MY FUCKING WIFE!”
“Is she gonna recite the whole thing?” Greg whispered to Garnet.
Garnet adjusted her visor. “‘I'm shapeshifting into White Diamond and pissing on the moon.’”

OHOHOHOHO YES YOU ARE ENABLING ME I NEED TO INFO DUMP!!!
first of all, yes they are small. not only was the gem that was supposed to form split in two, they were also in the ground for a veeerrrrrryyy long time. theyre overcooked like amethyst! which made them even smaller!
but you see, normally onyx’s are HUGE! roughly eleven feet tall :D if onyx’s were normal sized, ingo and emmet would have come out at barely two feet tall, but luckily theyre a bit taller at 4’6”
Tumblr media
being compressed in the ground for so long also made them both extremely durable! onyx’s represent strength and protection, so not not only are the twins verrrrry difficult to poof, they can withstand extreme temperatures like garnet :D
Also, since we never see an onyx in steven universe, i like to think they were actually discontinued! with the dwindling natural materials it just wasn't beneficial to make these giant eleven foot gems that just stood guard at warp pads. so Emmet and Inggo emerged verrrry late like, extremely late. im thinking this au takes place around the time peridot becomes a little friend creature, so the timeline is:
gemwar: onyx discontinued, emmet and ingo forming
after gem war: 5,000 or so years later, emmet and ingo emerge. very small
before the series and while it's going: Emmet and ingo are discovered and made to be entertainment for important gem higher ups. i'm thinking this goes on for a few hundred years
bit after peri is part of the crystal gems: emmet and ingo escape to earth and meet the gems!
Tumblr media
now, emmet and ingo don't have their signature big coats on homeworld, and instead wear something similar to pearls. bodysuit with a lil frilly thing :p cus just like pearls, they were basically just supposed to be decorations
Tumblr media
Emmet and Ingo, early on in their life as toys, managed to steal a device they could use to get information. haha lmao gem internet
anyway, whenever they were able, they would research things using this device, and formed a particular interest in earth. they read about the crystal gems and life on earth and- get ready
TRAINS
upon discovering the existence of trains, on earth and other alien societies, they were obsessed. they would talk about them as often as they could, and accidentally incorporated train talk into their everyday vocabulary, which the gems around them thought was verry strange
eventually, the reason emmet and ingo decide to escape, is big sad :(. so basically, the twins were given to a gem who led a platoon of soldiers, and threw emmet and ingo into their room and told them they could do whatever they wanted with them. so, the soldiers decide to just fuck the boys up. reallly beat the shit outta them, and they actually manage to poof ingo, something that had never happened before. then they start shouting about trying to shatter ingo, and this obviously freaked the hell out of emmet. so Emmet grabs ingos gem, and because he’s just small as hell compared to all the other gems in the room, manages to slip through them and escape.
now he's on the run, and just trying to hide long enough for ingo to reform. when ingo eventually does, they decide their life on homeworld is definitely over so they either have the choice of being shattered, or stealing a ship and escaping. they of course decide that stealing a ship would be better :] they know the layout of the area pretty well, so they are able to get to where ships are stored pretty easily, the only problem is actually flying them, buuuuut because of the device they stole, they had basic knowledge of how to operate it. they were being attacked the whole time, but did manage to successfully fly off of homeworld!!!!
It takes a while, but they manage to make it to earth. they’re researching humans a bunch and decide to choose human names for themselves! because humans are just so cool! so thats where their names come from :D
around this time is a bit after peridots famous “calling yellow diamond a clod” moment, so when the gems see a homeworld ship entering the atmosphere, they immediately assume the worst. they attack it, and the ship crashes somewhere in the forest. In the crash, Emmets gem is cracked. no good. very bad :(
when the gems find the crash, and they see emmet and ingo inside, they immediately realize “these arent dangerous gems, these are just little guys. we just attacked a couple of little guys and now theyre crying. oh no :(“ cus they r just little guys!!! emmets gem is cracked and hes scared and ingo is holding him and crying his freaking eyes out cus his twin is hurt :((( and steven tries to get closer to heal emmet and ingo hisses at him like a damn little creature,, and steven has to explain that they didnt mean to hurt them and they just want help, and ingo is still suspicious, but he lets steven slap his spit on emmet
Tumblr media
also i just realized i am just writing a fanfic here so i'm gonna stop before i write any more lmao (and ive just decided to write a whole actual fanfic about this so prepare urselves)
last thing im gonna talk about is their weapons cus i like what i came up with :]
I couldn't find a name for the weapon name, but it’s basically a giant deerhorn knife,,, like a batleth? yeah its like a reverse batleth :D so ingo and emmet each have a batleth, and when they fuse, their weapon becomes Giant frisbee saw of death
Tumblr media
and thats what ive come up with so far! :D feel free to ask questions or suggest things for this au!!!!! pls!!! i read all ur tags!!!!

A lot abt SU recently but I just want to talk on my lapidot shipping, bc I don’t ship them as a “couple” let’s say
I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately bc I’ve been getting into my past hyperfixations again (once a hyperfixation, always a hyperfixation lol)) and I ship lapidot, as most people know, peri is aroace canonically, so in my brain, lapis and peridot and lapis’s relationship as a QPR(queer platonic relationship) nothing romantic, but platonically partners, I mean they lived in a barn along caring for a farm,with pumpkin- the most queer way of living( speaking from my opinions on howd I live as a lesbian)) plus, their relationship is different from ruby and sapphire, (a canon sapphic romantic relationship, I mean they’re married so idk how it wouldn’t be lol))
One thing I think on constantly, when lapis leaves with the barn to the moon,lapis obviously wanted peri to come with, how they both deal with the loss of each other, it makes sense that their bond is more, their reaction when lapis came back also, it’s an all of sudden thing, you can tell that they both were surprised and glad to see each other- it really makes me wonder what conversations and interactions they had before they drove the arms to homeworld to rescue the gems when they both reformed, it obviously took time to rebuild the ships to be flyable, there was some obvious bug feelings they both had to talk abt that couldn’t in that very moment-
Some things I rlly think on is that Peri’s bubble formed in barn with lapis, yeah it may just be a coincidence that lapis is there but honestly I feel like they both feel like home to each other- the development between both of them is so good, peridot helped lapis thru the stuff with jasper- it may all be just my thoughts but I absolutely love the ship of lapis and peridot having a qpr relationship (this may be controversial but idc)

oh my gosh more baby sard content... waiter! waiter! more Baby Sard please!
w/ that out of the way i would love to hear more about her dynamic with the sardonyx fusion :3 as well as some of the later crystal gems + bismuth! what are her relationships with them like? what does she think of lapis, peridot and connie? how is she w/ bismuth?
one rambling sardonyx post coming right up 🛎️
i feel like the fusion sardonyx is the embodiment of a cool aunty that lives abroad and brings you expensive gifts - that’s the vibe they have together HAHA
sards at “17” (mentally i guess) would act a lot like amethyst so kinda angsty, cynical and misunderstood but deep down she’s a huge theatre nerd and that gives her a lot of room to bond with fusion sardonyx if she’s around lol the love for musicals runs in the family
Tumblr media
fusion sardonyx adores garnet and pearls baby she considers her the sweetest thing to walk the earth (up until steven’s born of course because the youngest child gets all the love) and would likely side with her against pearl and garnet if she could do that without unfusing lmao
the rocky part of their relationship was the communication hub incident. sards stopped viewing the fusion as this cool charismatic family member that she has a great rapport with, and started to see how she’s just a way for pearl to grab onto someone stronger to validate herself and her self worth. sards knew it wasn’t sardonyx’s fault but she began noticing her faults that came out of the woodwork as well. her haughtiness, her egoism etc. sards stopped viewing her as an influence rather the reflection of the unhealthy parts of her moms’ relationship with one another. she went so far as to make her hair shorter and change up her style a little to resemble sardonyx less
sards LOVES bismuth. she’s a little grossed out at how flirty she is with pearl (but i mean. garnet doesn’t have the balls to do it so sb has to) that’s just cause seeing someone other than garnet get all friendly with her mom is new LOL
she adores how open and expressive garnet gets around bismuth too. they’re such bros it’s hilarious to see her mom light up so much around her
sards knows bismuth gives the most down to earth advice when neither of her parents can help and she knows bismuth would never spill her secrets to her moms. she’s the fun aunt that opens a beer bottle with her belt buckle and sardonyx is here for that bullshit lmao
but bismuth loves her of course! she’s overjoyed to meet her best friends’ daughter, she’s just a little sad inside that she missed so so much. she’s trying to catch up by being the coolest aunt ever
she’s very slow to trust lapis but finds it easy to become friends with peridot over shared interests. i think sardonyx would be able to get peri into her own special show/series/musicals they got that autism bond if you know what i mean
they don’t talk much with lapis but she enjoys drawing together <3
and she’s the BIGGEST hypeman when it comes to connie she looooves to embarrass steven about his girlfrieeeendd but only for jokes ofc. connie thinks she’s a little mean and cheeky but likes her when she’s not making mean jokes at her expense. connie always notices when sards is acting like pearl (habits she started noticing during training) when she gets anxious quickly and has trouble thinking straight or starts to get overwhelmed by tiny details. they secretly talk shit behind pearls back if she pisses them off lol

Some off colored redesigns that i did awhile back! Each has their own story but all ended up in the group lead by Snowflake Obsidian! Who currently has my favorite design out of all of them.
Info about them under the cut!
Snowflake
Snowflake came out wrong, but didn't know it. She wanted to serve the diamonds and was devastated when she found out she couldn't because she was defective. To escape shattering in era 1, she escaped into the crevices of her home planet (A volcanic moon) and found others like her. Despite everything, she still wishes to serve the diamonds, and wishes she wasn't defective.
Mixed Peri
Mixed Peri is an Era 1 Peridot mixed with an Era 2 Peridot. Era 2 Peri might be smaller and more playful, but they're just stunted in their physical growth. Era 1 Peri had to learn a lot while working with them, but they slowly fell in love over centuries. However, once found out, they were chased out. Turns out, while they were the same kind of gem, because they were of different eras, their fusion came out 'wrong'. They don't mind though, they love each other regardless.
Silver Pearl
Silver pearl was once a servant of a cruel Lapis Lazuli. This Lapis abused her pearl, until that Pearl finally had enough of it and ran away. She hid on a ship and came here. Her Lapis is still looking for her, and because of her previous trauma she's hesitant to get close to anyone. Hayune keeps trying to be close, and despite a small crush on the other gem, Silver Pearl tries to act as unattached as ever.
Hayune
Hayune is a mineral used in the making of Lapis Lazuli's. They're never supposed to be their own gems. So when Hayune came out, the plans were to crush her and remake her. But Hayune liked being alive, so she ran. She's utterly unique among gems, but if Homeworld ever found her, she'd be dust in a second. Still, she's trying to enjoy life and make friends. That Pearl seems nice! If... she would only talk to Hayune. Did Hayune do something wrong?

blood moon – part two
read on ao3 | read part one | gemcyt / life series, 2.5k words
An AU-within-an-AU of the wonderful gemcyt AU by @chrisrin, and the fic series by @sixteenth-days!
This part introduces two more characters, Mumbo and Lizzie, but since they're Homeworld gems, they don't use those names yet, and Lizzie doesn't use she/her pronouns yet. All that will change in the next chapter, but in the meantime, Mumbo is Peridot and Lizzie is Rose Quartz.
“I can’t believe this,” Grian said, looking at Pearl with a new eye. Now that he knew it was his old friend, he could see the resemblance, though it was mostly in Pearl’s expressions—her new form bore no resemblance to her previous one. “What are you doing here?”
“Looking for you, obviously.” Alex gave him a gentle bump with her shoulder. It hurt a lot less than usual now that she was only twice his size.
“I have so many questions.” Grian tried to organize his thoughts, but it was a hopeless task. “Why do you look like a pearl? Should I be calling you Pearl now, or Alexandrite? And why are you red?”
“I don't care what you call me, Gri. I’m just glad I finally found you,” Pearl said. “The pearl thing started out as a disguise, but I have no idea why I'm red. I was actually hoping you’d know.”
“I've never seen a gem change color before.” Grian landed on Alex’s shoulder and took a closer look, poking her arm in curiosity. “Maybe Scott or Cleo would know something, but I haven’t got a clue. Is this the first time it’s happened?”
“As far as I know. We landed last night, but I didn't leave the ship until morning because—”
“Hang on,” Grian interrupted. “Who’s ‘we’?”
“Me and Peridot,” Alex said. “Oh, and this rose quartz we picked up on the way, but he ran off the second we touched down. Haven't seen him since. He was such a ditz, he probably tripped on a rock somewhere and shattered himself.”
She laughed, but Grian didn’t join her. His days of considering quartz soldiers expendable were over now that he knew some of them personally. If anything happened to BigB, he’d be inconsolable.
“How did you convince Peridot to come with you?” he asked. “I figured he’d never leave Homeworld again after hearing that I disappeared.”
“He’s currently refusing to leave the ship,” Alex admitted. “But he came because he had to, Grian. We both did. We couldn’t just not look for you, knowing you could still be out there.”
A horrible thought occurred to Grian. “This isn’t a Homeworld mission, is it? You’re not reporting back to them or anything?”
“Course not. We left the main ship three solar systems away and took an escape pod here. They can’t track us.”
Grian breathed a sigh of relief. If there was one thing Alexandrite was good at, it was hiding things from the diamonds. He should have more faith in her. “I thought I’d never see you or Peri again,” he said. “I still can’t believe you’re just here.”
“I’m here,” she said. “Come on, bring it in.” She spread her arms open, and Grian moved forward to let her hug him. He could actually sort of hug back this time, since she was smaller than usual. “I missed you so much, Gri. I wish I could have come sooner.”
“I missed you too,” Grian admitted. “Living with Scar is kind of a nightmare. Makes you seem level-headed and rational in comparison.”
“Me? Level-headed?” Alex laughed. “I get it, though. Peri’s been driving me up a wall with how much he talks about you, but I can’t blame him. We were so worried you’d been shattered, but I kept telling myself, Gri’s a survivor. He’d never just die on an alien planet like that. And I was right!” she crowed. “He’ll be thrilled to see you.”
“You think if we’re both there, we can convince him to leave the ship?”
“Who cares about that? We can catch up on the way back, right?” Alex said, her red eyes shining. “Come on, Gri, let’s get out of here!”
“Wait, what?”
Grian stopped dead, replaying the conversation they’d just had in his head. Alex had been glad to see him, she’d been shirking her responsibilities to come find him, but she’d never said anything about staying—in fact, the first thing she’d said to him had been the exact opposite.
“We’re going home, silly.” Pearl tilted her head in confusion. “Don’t you want to get out of here?”
Maybe if she’d come earlier, Grian would have jumped at the chance to get off this planet and return to Homeworld. But now, he’d gotten used to the freedom of doing whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted to do it. He couldn’t imagine returning to his old life just to have the Diamond Authority constantly breathing down his neck.
“I can’t just up and leave,” he told her.
“Why not? We’ve already come up with the perfect cover story.”
“That’s not the problem,” Grian said. “I’ve got a whole life here now. I’m making new friends, fusing, working on this base—” He gestured behind him. “I just put in a chimney. You don’t even know what that is! I don’t even know what that is, but I’m not going to find out if I return to Homeworld.”
Pearl just stared at him. She clearly wasn’t getting the message. “So…you’re not going to come back with us?”
“No,” Grian said firmly. “I’m not going back to Homeworld.”
“Oh.” Pearl stepped back, her eyes going blank. “Okay then.”
“It’s just—” He sighed. “I thought you liked it here. I thought this place would be right up your alley.”
She shrugged. “It’s alright.”
“I was hoping you’d want to stay.” Grian couldn’t blame Pearl for having reservations. He’d had plenty of his own, and it had taken him a while to shake them. “I know it sounds insane.”
“It does,” Pearl agreed. “I’ll have to think about it.” Her voice was flat and unconvincing. She was upset, Grian realized, and trying not to show it. She took a few steps back, glancing off in the direction she’d come from.
“You don’t have to decide yet,” Grian said. “I know it’s a lot.”
“I get it,” Pearl said. “I’ll just—I’ve got to work on some things. I should go.”
“You’re not going to tell anyone from Homeworld that we’re here, are you?”
“I wouldn’t,” she said, sounding offended. “We’re still friends, Gri. I’d never get you in trouble.”
“Or anyone else,” he insisted.
“Or anyone else.” She started walking away, but stopped after a few steps. “You’re not going to blow my cover, are you?”
“You mean tell them you’re not really a pearl?”
“I am a pearl,” she said, but faltered. “I mean—yeah.”
“We’re still friends,” Grian echoed her. He still didn’t know why Alex was in disguise, but he’d get it out of her eventually. “I won’t tell anyone.”
Pearl nodded. “I’ll see you tomorrow,” she told him, and left.
Pearl’s return to the ship was concerning, to say the least.
When she left, Pearl had assured Peridot that she’d be back with Gri at her side. Not only was Gri nowhere to be seen, but Pearl had somehow managed to turn herself an entirely different color.
It may have been a trick of the light, but Peridot wasn’t willing to leave the ship to get a closer look. He hit the button on the wall to deploy the landing bay so she could come in.
“Don’t just stand there,” Pearl said, gesturing for him to join her. “Get out here.”
“I thought you said I wouldn’t have to leave the ship.”
“Change of plans.” Pearl crossed her arms, fixing him with an exasperated glare. “It’s perfectly safe, Peri. I’ve been out here for hours now without a scratch on me.”
“But—”
“Do you want Gri back or not?”
“I don’t want to change color,” Peridot said. “Can’t you just come in here?”
“Nope. You’ll be fine.” She walked up the ramp and grabbed him by the elbow, pulling him down with her. “See? Look, you’re still the same.”
Peridot winced as his foot touched the ground, but nothing happened. Pearl had told him the truth. His usual shade of green had gone a little dull from the dim light, but it was nothing like Pearl’s dramatic shift in hue. “Goodness,” he said, staring down at the earth beneath him. The soil was obscured by a thick layer of organic matter. “What is this stuff?”
“Don’t scan it. You can’t access the database here,” Pearl reminded him.
“I know, I know.” His arms stayed in place, his fingers tapping nervously against his elbows. “So what happened?”
Pearl let out a loud noise of frustration, making Peridot jump. “It went horribly,” she said. “I don’t know what Gri’s problem was. I showed him my gem and everything, and I even told him you came with me, but it was like he didn’t even care.”
“Even though he knows I’m here?” Pearl nodded, and Peridot pulled his arms a little closer around himself. “Oh,” he said softly. “I see.”
“I asked him to come back here with me,” Pearl said. “I told him you were waiting for him, but he refused. He wants to stay here, Peri. He doesn’t care about us anymore.”
Peridot didn’t think Pearl would lie to him, but he couldn’t bring himself to believe that Gri would have rejected them so harshly. “There must be some kind of misunderstanding,” he said. “Maybe he was just upset over something else. We can’t give up after getting all the way here.”
“I’m not giving up on him,” Pearl said. “That’s why I called you out here. We’re going to march right back over there and get this sorted. He can’t say no to us both.”
Peridot stared out into the darkness. Other than the light from the ship, their surroundings were rather dim. If he were to follow Pearl to wherever Gri was, he might risk unwanted contact with all manner of unseen creatures. “Can’t we wait until morning?” he asked her.
“I told you, there’s nothing to be afraid of. Besides the other gems, I haven’t seen a single motile organism since we arrived.”
Right as she finished speaking, something began rustling around in the greenery close by. Peridot immediately ran up the landing bay to hide inside the ship, but Pearl didn’t move. Instead, she drew her gem weapons, a pair of curved blades as long as her forearms, and held them aloft, ready to strike.
“Reveal yourself!” she shouted. “Who’s there?”
“What are you doing? Don’t draw its attention over here!”
“Guys, relax! It’s just me.” A few more branches snapped, and the bushes parted to make way for Rose Quartz, dirty and disheveled but no less chipper than the last time they’d seen him. “Did you find your little friend yet?”
Peridot had never met Rose before this journey. The only reason Rose was here was because he’d overheard Pearl and Peridot discussing their plans. Instead of ratting them out, he’d asked to join them, and they hadn’t had much of a choice but to agree.
“Where have you been all day?” Pearl asked Rose, letting her weapons vanish.
“I was looking around for other gems,” Rose said. “I followed the sun like you told me, but then it disappeared, so I turned around and came back.”
Pearl pinched the bridge of her nose. “Rose, I told you that the previous mission landings were in that direction,” she said, pointing east.
“You said they were towards the sun,” Rose said. “And the sun moved, so I followed it.”
“Are you like this on purpose, or are you really just that stupid?”
“Hey!” Rose crossed his arms. “Don’t call me stupid!”
“I’m glad you’re safe, Rose,” Peridot said, trying to steer the conversation away from an argument. He couldn’t make sense of why Pearl was acting so hostile. Until now, she’d had no problem being kind to Rose, keeping all her frustrations with Rose’s cluelessness between the two of them.
“Oh, I’m fine,” Rose said with confidence. “I’m a lot stronger than I look. Hey, Pearl, why are you red now?”
“That’s not important,” Pearl said. “What matters is that I saw all the missing gems today, Rose. None of them were shattered.”
“Wait, all of them? Really?”
“I cross-referenced every gem I saw with the reports of gems that were lost on Life. Everyone was accounted for.”
“What about Pearl? Where’s Pearl?”
Peridot pointed at Pearl immediately, only to find that Pearl was also currently pointing at herself. Rose laughed, waving them off.
“I know about that pearl, don’t worry,” he said. “I’m talking about Pink Pearl.”
“Wait, that’s who you’re here for?” Pearl asked. “Not one of the quartzes?”
“You know,” Peridot reflected, “maybe it would have been a good idea to ask that question before we let a random gem join our illegal top-secret mission.”
Pearl ignored him. “What do you want with Pink Diamond’s pearl?” she asked Rose.
“Erm.” Rose looked stumped. “That’s…classified?”
“We’re not playing by Homeworld rules anymore,” Pearl said, drawing her gem weapons once more. “You agreed to be a part of this mission, so you’d better tell me the truth.”
“Hey, woah, no need for violence!” Rose threw up his hands in surrender. “I kept seeing Pink Diamond really sad without his pearl, so when I overheard you guys talking about Earth, I figured I’d come too! That way I could bring the pearl back and make my diamond happy.”
“You didn’t tell anyone, right?” Pearl asked, stepping closer. “You’re not in contact with anybody from Homeworld?”
“No, no, of course not! Nobody knows I’m here.” Pearl took another step forward, undeterred, and Rose began backing away. “I’m telling the truth, I swear!”
“Pearl, what are you doing?” Peridot asked, his voice betraying his panic.
“Come on, Peri. You don’t find it suspicious that Rose is here for a diamond’s pearl?”
“I suppose, but…” If he was being honest, Peridot thought Rose’s story made sense. He’d never seen Pearl like this before. “I don’t think this is going to help. Please just put the knives away, Pearl, you’re—” You’re scaring me.
“Fine.” Pearl rolled her eyes and let her weapons dematerialize. “But if I find out you were lying, Rose…” She gave Rose a death glare, and Peridot shivered.
“Well, I’m not.” Rose briefly met Peridot’s eyes, but all Peridot could offer him was a helpless shrug. “I just want to find my—my diamond’s pearl. That’s all.”
There was a long, uncomfortable pause before Pearl broke the silence. “I’m taking Peri to see the other gems in the morning,” she said. “You might as well come with us if you want to see Pink Pearl.”
“I never agreed to that,” Peridot said, before he could think better of it.
“Well, there’s always Plan C,” Pearl said. “Where I go out and poof Gri and take him home with us by force.”
Peridot grimaced, imagining Gri’s reaction when he reformed on the ship back to Homeworld. “I don’t think we should try that one.”
“Then it’s decided.” Pearl gave him a dangerous grin, and Peridot shuddered. He was not looking forward to this.

Both- forgot to type that sorry
Send ✏️ for me to describe how I portray my muse
Tumblr media
Thanks. Friend. That's much better! Now then let me explain My thought process...
Let's get Started with "Peri."
Guys! These two
Tumblr media
[👽]: "Who? M-M-M-ME!?"
Now whenever I need to get into the mindset of "a Peridot" specifically OUR Great and Lovable Peridot quoted by ✨Perid👽t herself. All I need to do is get into the mind🧠of a supercomputer,🖥️A great big computer Nerd with a manic demeanor. Think the teacher's pet with the nearly most nasally voice you can fathom. Peridot has an explosive 💥 short temper,
Tumblr media
"HEY!"
She shows some signs of possible Autism.™️ Which is a personal headcanon of mine. Peridot is good at putting things into a logical and linguistic sense. I just think she loves it that way. She's most comfortable when things make sense. It does not stop her from hitting the archaic technology that makes her angry.
Think of the biggest teacher's pet and iPad 📱student. You might've known in school. The terminally online, the "I must crack the latest highest score!" video game player!🎮 She's kinda Animalistic, She's awkward and not too big on social cues. She thrives on doing projects by herself and gushing about her favorite TV. 🏕️❤️‍🌲show for literal hours!
(Just don't talk to her about her failures❌ or you'll get an earful!!!📣)
Peridot is pretty simple for me to tap into both of these two are on autopilot really.
Tumblr media
Now. Shall we proceed to the "Bitter Sister" herself?"
Tumblr media
~💧~ "No. Don't talk about me!"
I think I can say with confidence that "Lappy" here, is unlike any muse I've had before in all my early years of roleplay.
Tumblr media
"It's... Lapis...."
Honest to God! She is chaotic and rather unpredictable! I-I mean for someone who doesn't care about of lot of things and activities... Lapis sure does get the conversation going. I really don't know how to explain it she grabs the reins and I don't know if we're ever going to make it back home! Lapis has a low-energy bar sometimes... Other times she's actually bouncing off the walls!
Tumblr media
"Because people won't leave me ALONE!"
Lapis is laid-back, uninterested, gothic, and cold, while also at other times playful, childish, silly, Insane, immature, and gross sometimes. And did I forget to mention she has a mouth on her? (She wants all the Crystal Gems to swear!) She loves the ocean marine life, she suffers from PTSD from the Gem war, and she LOVES nautical puns {And Peri}
Tumblr media
"Okay! That's it! I'm done! If you don't shut the hell up! I get to splatter you all over the walls!"
Tumblr media
EEE! Okay. I'm finished. I'm finished. That's a good place to stop.
So there it is~ ^^

Hand. the. headcanons. over. NOWWWWW.
AAAAA AKSBWKBDEK🫡🫡🫡
pearl is the second person lapis has ever fallen in love with (the first being peridot), and the first person to ever have an even half healthy mutual relationship with (can go into more detail on the issues of her and peri w in the universe in my head but this isnt the ask for that JSBSJS)
lapis would be the first person that pearl falls in love with that is completely unrelated to rose (ie doesnt remind pearl of her)
i dont think they would ever fuse tbh unless it was some kind of dire emergency. lapis didnt have to worry abt that w peridot since peri was avidely against that for herself, but tried to make herself for pearl. it did not go over well
pearl absolutely infodumps to lapis all the time. pearls the talker lapis is the listener (not always ofc, but)
lapis would have sm fun w the ungodly amount of water that makes up pearls room
they cuddle and nap together sometimes<3 pearl doesnt as often as lapis, but will whenever lapis has an especially hard day and needs the closeness + escape
they absolutely lose track of time talking abt how much they love steven JSBSKS
they have plant children together absolutely. huge plant mom(s) energy
to be honest i do not see either of them as the jealous type, and i think theyd absolutely use eachother as therapist/free ears to talk about all the fucked shit theyve gone through
they get together after lapis comes back from the moon, i personally hc that she briefly lives at steven's house between the barn being destroyed and little homeworld being built
pearl LOVES to keep her hands on the small of lapis' back. or just wrap her hands around her at all (she loves all the exposed skin from lapis' outfit lmaoo)
pearl is sooo the gift giving type w how she can keep and treasure things in her gem, she totally gets lapis copies of camp pining hearts and they watch them together to bond<3 (i think this would be early in their relationship, when theyre still learning to be friends and pearl is trying to make up for the mirror thing)
lapis's love language is physical affection (smth that gets supressed pretty heavily from all the trauma), so when she's comfortable enough she is ALL OVER pearl sldbslnw
honestly i think they would be in a sort of semi open relationship. i think that would be good for both of them to have like. casual mates and such since they both (pearl especially, obviously) dedicate themselves so entirely to one person (this might be projection for lapis so correct me if im wrong there LMAO)
going off the last one i dont think theyd ever rlly call themselves like gfs or anything. theyre just in love<3

You.
I found your SU fan-animation episode "The Smothering" with a Mom-Swap AU.
I have several questions.
Is Jasper a fusion? If not, what's Amethyst's role? Is she still an overbaked runt or is she more powerful? Is Garnet still a fusion? If so, is this AU's Homeworld's treatment of fusions different than in canon? If Pearl takes Peridot's role, are Pearls more than just servants in the AU? Or is she a servant pearl like other pearls? What's the deal with the diamonds in general? Jasper and Peridot still seem to have the yellow diamond on their chests, does Steven have Yellow's Gem on his chest instead? Or is it still just Pink? Has Peri never been poofed and is that why she still has her limb enhancers? Was Bismuth (and her whole deal) still a thing? If so, does this mean that Amethyst (Or Garnet?) was the one stuck in the mirror? Was it just Sapphire given her future sight?
These are just a few of the questions I have, I don't want to overwhelm you.
Thank you for reading this if you have I am too curious and I would love answers please I'm beggin' ya. I am on my hands and knees here I am so. curious.
So the issue with what you're doing here is that you're trying to equate a one-to-one exchange between characters in the AU.
For example, there's no reason for Jasper to be a fusion.
So the basic idea was that Peri-Jasper-Lapis were Rose's friends in this version, or at least were the ones who ended up being alive (or unbubbled) and looking after Steven. The other component of this idea is that they'd be much worse at it. None of them being particularly good at getting along. I like to imagine they occasionally try and take each other out when away from home like when Peridot aimed her cannon at Jasper. They're a much more dysfunctional version of the normal gems.
So Pearl and Peridot didn't exchange roles in the story one-to-one. Potentially Rose didn't receive a new Pearl after cracking 'Volleyball' or felt too ashamed by this and bubbled her and claimed she didn't want a pearl. She did ditch Spinel forever on a secret island in space so it's not like that's unreasonable for her. If you want a cannon answer for this AU specifically, her new Pearl was delivered by her overprotective sisters and she never activated it. Partly due to shame and party out of loathing that they think she'd need an attendant. So Pearl (our Pearl) is in a box in Rose's room.
Instead, Rose found Peridot and broke stuff to have an excuse to talk to someone. She discovers Peridot has been hiding that she's a dud and cannot control metal but sees herself in the weaker gem. When she takes Peridot's hand instead of discarding her she wins her loyalty for life. Peri's Limb enhancers are things she created to feel more useful and prove she's not weak and useless. If you want another one-to-one exchange, imagine the reveal that she's got Limb enhancers replacing the reveal that Garent is a fusion. They're quite similar in regard to poofing a gem revealing their body isn't quite what you expected.
Lapis is just cheerful because in this AU she wasn't repeatedly imprisoned after many war crimes. I still use her theme of freedom, in that here she's enamoured with the idea that there's no hierarchy and revels in freedom. So she's the fun aunt type who would be fun for a weekend but god you wouldn't want to live with her. Rose met her shortly after she was imprisoned for a little accidental war crime she was ordered to do and set her free.
Jasper was just Jasper. But Rose revealed she was Pink Diamond and Jasper went to her side instead of trying to kill her unknowingly in a war for ages. Jasper already adored her and - after the idea is introduced that gems can choose who they want to be by Rose - Jasper attempts to mimic things Rose did because she liked Rose so much. Obviously, if you want to be a good gem mimic a diamond right? She attempts to mimic her compassion and respect without really getting it. Ironically she's the most like Homeworld, since she just obeyed her Diamond and is not trying to do what she thinks her Diamond wanted. Her journey would be actually understanding what Rose meant as opposed to just repeating it. (Fun gag: Since Rose loved Greg Jasper assumed Greg has immense value, and tries to sort of flirt with him because that's what Rose did. Greg figured out she's just mimicking Rose but it's still super uncomfortable and he's intimidated by her.) (If you want another one-to-one, Jasper gets the love confession from guy-who's-name-I-forgot and accepts. She shows off that she has a pet human like Rose and everyone is disgusted by this.)
---
So Peridot wants to show she's smart and competent, believing she's Rose's extension and needs to look after her son. She's conflicted about considering herself inherently weak and needs to learn to accept she doesn't need limb enhancers. She doesn't like Lapis because she's never doing any jobs and was born super powerful. She doesn't like Japser because she thinks she's an idiot thug and also was born Perfect, unlike Peridot.
Jasper tries to enforce a more military-like command structure but neither of the other gems respects her or cares so they just butt heads a lot. (heh) Lapis hates orders and Peridot doesn't think Jasper has smart ideas. Jasper ends up feeling like she's nothing more than a violent murder machine and her function is to do harm. They also get wicked pissed at her when she tries to mimic how Rose would act.
Lapis hangs out and has fun. She sometimes breaks rules just because she can and causes some issues. Being a powerful water lord she needs to learn some restraint and control as well as the ability to work with the others.
---
CHEATS - I left their design unaltered because I didn't want to use new designs. I should have used new designs, but I didn't. This is why there are yellow diamonds on the outfit. Assume they are incredibly uninterested in changing outfits. if I redid it they'd have unique outfits, or at least they'd have pink diamonds on their chests.
Bismuth, the Diamonds, and fusion are all the same.
---
I think Amethyst would have been discarded and practised transforming so hard she could pretend to be strong and large long enough that she'd get away with it. That and only faking muscle right up until she needed it.
She'd blow a lot of hot air and then try and end fights asap until Jasper knocks her around.
Sapphire would be great for the mirror, a mirror that sees the future would be incredibly handy. She'd be uncatchable also and fulfil the role of someone who contacts homeworld. When she came back with Amethyst and some rubies armed with destabilisers one fused with her to save her. This crisis of faith caused them to flee while the other rubies were bubbled.
See it's about having similar outcomes with the same overall plot. Instead of events being the same with new faces, you exchange the trials a character goes through with the other. Amethyst and jasper are facing the same issues but the one we're rooting for is swapped, etc.
For Pearl, she'd have an episode where Steven discovers her and the gang use her like a slave. Steven is uncomfortable with this and tries to make Pearl think of herself as her own person. She ends up working at the car wash and has a nice time. Steven wanted her to be her own person but she's coded to obey him, so he leaves her with Greg, who's not directly her owner but a still in charge, which she can handle better since having no one in charge around causes her to panic or shut down. Greg pays her but she turns around and uses her income to buy things for the Carwash.

🍒, 🥀, ⚔️, 🪄, 💫, ♟️, & 🧋 for anyone!!
🍒 (Cherry) - Out of all of the Dream Friends [Kirby included], which ones would they get along with the most? The least?
for Fondue, Perihelion, and TK
Obviously Fondue gets along best with Bandee and Dedede! But I think he'd also like Adeleine, who he probably developed a soft spot for when she stayed at Castle Dedede. On the other hand, Marx would(and does) annoy the everloving daylights out of him, and he dislikes Taranza.
Peri would greatly enjoy Magolor's company, to the mage's surprise. It's good to know the Lor is in caring hands. It'd also like talking about technology with Susie, comparing methods and experiences. Though they'd dislike Marx's senseless disorder.
TK would really like Flamberge, a fellow hothead, and for some reason I think he'd be fond of Gooey? He knows a good boi when he sees one ig. DMK would frustrate and confuse him though. Are you Meta Knight or aren't you?!
🥀 (Wilted Rose) - Do they have a Soul form? What would it look and act like? How much control over themselves do they have? Is it still possible to save them, or are they too far gone?
for Pheonix Knight
Pheonix Knight indeed has a Soul form! Four flaming wings, giant clawed hands holding a bident crackling and kept together with raw energy, and harsh glowing eyes full of grief. For a Soul form he's actually very lucid, but fixated on vengeance, no matter who or what is in the way. As to if they could be saved . . . it was possible, but the only people who could have pulled him back couldn't find him, or weren't born, or had were the indirect cause of him falling down this path. In the end his soul was claimed by the Scarlet Butterfly, before it could be any further damaged.
⚔️ (Crossed Swords) - What weapon(s) do they wield or specialize in, if any in particular? Any special properties? Do their weapons have names or epithets? [e.g. MK’s Galaxia, Morpho’s Doomblade]
For Carmilla
Carmilla's a bit of a Jack-of-all-trades, but she specializes in crossbow and throwing knives! None of her weapons have unique properties or names.
🪄 (Magic Wand) - Are they capable of wielding magic? Is it a learned skill, or is it innate? What sorts of spells can they cast? Do they possess any magical items or artifacts? [e.g. the Dimensional Mantle]
for Rosentine and Brocade
Rosentine's magic is all learned, and mostly works with plant and growth magic. She can also call apon the heart magic in the blue gems of her brooch and crown, which she uses to defend herself when need be.
Brocade's magic, on the other hand, is innate! She used heart magic mostly in combat, but learned healing magic as an adult to make sure her friends don't die doing their stupid shenanigans. She also wielded the crystal gun, which became an heirloom for the Royal Family of Ripplestar.
💫 (Shooting Star) - If they were to wish on a clockwork star, like Galactic Nova or Star Dream, what would they wish for?
For Perihelion
They would wish for knowledge, about technology, and about the people around them that they never fully understood. Maybe if they understood their peers more, or knew enough about technology, it could be free of the isolation brought apon them by their twin tails.
♟️ (Pawn) - Does your OC get possessed easily, or do they have the willpower to fight back against any possible attempts? Have they been possessed before?
For TK
Taurus has a very strong will, so at very least he'd put up a strong fight against any possible puppeteers. And he'd have a bit of an extra edge against Dark Matter as well, since he's spent the past ~7 years wielding a sword containing Dark Magic.
But he's not infallible. If someone or something was especially fierce in it's attempts, or just appealed to his ego, it's likely be enough to pull him down. He's been able to avoid situations that would put him at risk of possession so far in life, though.
🧋 (Boba Tea) - Come up with a Kirby Café item themed around your OC! It can be a savoury dish, a drink, a dessert, or something else entirely.
For Brocade
I think Brocade's dish would be a light, fluffy cake with lavender frosting, topped with whipped cream and diamond-shaped cookies decorated to mirror her wings. It'd come with a cup of herbal tea, with a special design on the teacup.
The Cake Brocade Has on Sunny Afternoons
