“Of course she would want to create life, finally, after destroying so much of it.” My god, op, you ate that up.
I think it's wild that people finish Steven Universe and come to the conclusion that Rose was a terrible person.
Everything Steven did different, he was able to because he was raised in a completely different environment, around people who expected him to grow and let him, and who supported him.
Pink Diamond had no one to support her. Rose did. And when things got especially bad, Rose did the one thing she thought would genuinely end the war. It lead to bad things happening, but it wasn't because of malicious intent that she did what she had.
In a post-war world, Steven could make decisions using the information and support he had that Rose never did.
Obviously she wasn't the paragon of morality, but she tried. She tried with what she knew. She made bad decisions, and she lived with them.
I guess a good way to phrase it would be like.
If Pink Diamond is Eleanor Shellstrop (original life) from the Good Place, then Rose Quartz is Eleanor Shellstrop (near-death timeline), and Steven is the Eleanor Shellstrop of the final season.
" Look, the point is people improve when they get external love and support. How can we hold that against them when they don't?"
Pink changed when she received support from Pearl as Rose, and later from Garnet, Amethyst, and even Greg. She was still learning after hundreds of years as Rose, like Eleanor was after hundreds of years in the afterlife.
And no, I can't see Rose using Steven as an escape like a lot of people claim. Rose finally had the opportunity to do what she wanted to do ever since she was Pink Diamond: create life from nothing. Of course that would excite her! Of course she would want to create life, finally, after destroying so much of it.
There's no reason for her to believe that the diamonds would have ever changed, because she couldn't, as a diamond.** Not to mention she wouldn't have a reason to think they'd come back to earth. If she had known about the cluster, she definitely would have said something instead of ignoring it.
** to that point, she wasn't treated like a diamond either, unlike the others. She wasn't as set in her status the others.
#Absolutely adore all of this#Can I also add how much it annoys me when ppl’s only argument against her is saying like ‘she was a colonizer/space dictator!!’#as if the MAIN theme of the show isn’t change#as if the FIRST POWER steven learned wasn’t change#(aside from his gem doing glowey stuff)#this show is and always has been about change#and this applies to the diamonds as well#people can change and you don’t have to forgive them in order for them to do so#steven obviously has conflicted feelings about his mom because yeah why did she lie to everyone and force me to deal with it#but that doesn’t make her an objectively bad person#lapis/peridot/bismuth attempted killing steven and he still wanted to befriend them#same way steven can acknowledge the diamonds have changed and are better now and still !! hate them for everything they did#‘your actions have concequences’ and ‘you don’t have to remain the person who caused them’ can and do coexist#and honestly where would we be if we were only defined by the worst things we’ve done#And so#it’s pretty fitting the final song would be ‘change your mind’#steven universe#su#su analysis#rose quarts su#rose quartz#rose quarts steven universe

I LOVE THESE LAPIS LADS SO DAMN MUCH!!!!!!
Faifa is ready to die before he makes someone else uncomfortable, so thank goodness Wine is always around to remind Faifa that he will actually die if he continues to try to make everyone happy.
And then Wine gave Faifa the thing he wanted in the first place but was willing to sacrifice because Faifa is always thinking of others and now it's time someone thought about him!
I also appreciate that his Black Brooder brother, with his Green Guy boyfriend in tow, immediately went after him once he found out he spent all night out with his mentee.
So now Gun's even asking what they possibly talked about for hours all night long while Yellow Yal Arm is trying to play bad cop and get to the bottom of this.
But he is too cute for that negativity.
He is a lover, not a fighter, and he knows the best Blue Boy in all the lands would never hurt anyone, especially Wine, which is why Arm tasks Faifa with bringing our dark Blue Boy out of his shell.
So Faifa decides to do it in the kindest gayest way possible by simply being nice to the guy. Pete got Vegas that way, so it obviously works with even the toughest cases.
Maybe that's why Arm keeps wearing blue; he wants to be a Blue Boy since they are just so great, but I can't really think too much on that because Red Rascal Arc is . . . well, existing, shirtless.
And this is the proper reaction to witnessing that man, exist, shirtless. Both. Both are the proper reaction.
But crying in a Texas Roadhouse is not the proper reaction to eating with friends, mostly when your buddies are filming content. However, this feels true to a dark Blue Boy.
Because it's what dark Blue Boys do. Just being depressing. Crying in showers. Crying in the Garden of Olives. Crying in his sleep. Crying in the club. Crying. All the time.
So I actually think it was smart that light Blue Boy Faifa ran to his dad to ask about how to heal a broken heart since his dad is also a dark Blue Boy who was so depressed after their mom left him that he vowed to never love again, yet he seems fine now, right?!
And Faifa does not need the judgement of his brother and brother-in-law in this situation! But I love that Faifa was like, "break up with each other then I can ask for your advice" and it looked like Yotha was legit going to punch him for even putting that curse into the air.
Because Faifa is the BEST Blue Boy, yet he thinks he is not capable of loving someone else, when he, in fact, will be the BEST at loving Wine (and I think he is going to be heartbroken about it, but I'm not there yet), so I need his brother to support him in this effort!
Faifa is so good at loving Wine that he runs to the bar even after he said he wasn't going simply because Wine asked him to, and as much as I want to be upset that Arc and Arm keep playing color games with me, I noticed Arc has a teeny tiny bit of red on him.
And the back of Arm's shirt is yellow, so I am not mad at them! Also, this entire section of the episode was hilarious since Arc was big mad his man was telling Wine love was dumb, and at the same time Yotha, who is drunk just like everyone else, connected the dots that his brother was trying to help out Wine. I loved it!
But these two color-coded toxicitos entered the scene just in time to give Wine a gay crisis in the middle of the drunk scene of a BL.
Faifa grabbed that boy and shuffled him off to the bathroom so quickly because Klao and Arc both were looking at that kid like he was going to say some homophobic shit, BUT BABY IS GAY! This was excellent! I'm living my best life!
And we immediately get treated with Faifa rubbing Wine's back and trying to soothe him. I LOVE FAIFA!
But not as much as I love Wine at this exact moment pinning Faifa to the wall with his hands around Faifa's neck as he has a whole breakdown about being gay and fearing everyone will hate him.
WHICH PROMPTS HIM TO KISS FAIFA!!!! AND FAIFA KISSES HIM BACK!!!!!
Faifa, you're in trouble, bro. You're already lost in the deep blue boy sea. You don't know what heartache is about to hit you because you only know that Wine broke up with his girlfriend because he likes guys. But you don't know he broke up with her because he liked her brother, and we have no idea what that brother spoke to his parents about since Wine ran away before Toey could say, and . . .
These bars are giving me bad vibes, so you are about to have some competition that you don't even see coming (out) because her brother probably came out to his parents and Wine is going to be a mess about it.
Yeah, hold your little Vino Baby while you can, sir. Cuddle him before the narrative screws all of us over.
Because this man is so unpredictable that he logged into his ex's YouTube account just to mess up her algorithm so he could get his camera back. He is a genius, but also, petty. That's a dangerous combination, Faifa.
Look at Faifa. Look at him. Look at my Best Blue Boy in all the universe. Look at how chill he was seconds before Wine called him and he dropped everything to run to him and comfort him. LOOK AT WHAT A KING LOOKS LIKE!
I LOVE FAIFA! I LOVE THEM! I LOVE THIS!
Faifa has the perfect words to make Wine feel safe, and the way he looks at Wine is unbelievably soft, but we all know what this means when we still have six episodes left in their story, right?
We're fucked.
Because now the show has plenty of time to show us that even though Faifa said that Wine makes his heart flutter, Wine will struggle with it since Faifa treats everyone special, and for Tor to make his appearance since it's seemed very important that Tor spoke to his parents.
But I could be completely wrong, and we are just going to ride this wave of happiness until the very end.
Or drown trying.
#perfect 10 liners#color coded boys in love#the colors mean things#my heart is so happy#because I know it's about to get angsty#blue boys sacrifice and these two are going to pull some nonsense in six episodes#I'm so happy to have two boys who are the same color but different hues!#episode eighteen#this show's color coding is elite#I'm gonna rewatch this episode!#And think about Tor!

Streamily Signing with Shelby Rabara as Peridot
Shelby Rabara signed some stuff for fans on the Streamily!

While signing some fun Peridot posters and adding "you clod" to her signature, Shelby told some stories and bantered with chatters.
When a chatter said hi from Samoa, she told a story of going to a Sadie Hawkins dance with a Samoan guy and how cool their outfits were.

She said fire victims in L.A. get some proceeds of these posters.
She said maybe she'll do a dual signing event with Michaela Dietz at one point.

She asks for the chat's Valentine's plans.
Shelby made a "coffee talk" reference, doing the accent from the Saturday Night Live sketch.

Shelby's mom was in the chat from the Philippines. Also her cousins and her brother were there.
She says she loves saying "clod" and it never gets old.
On one poster for a fan, Shelby writes the Steven Universe quote "Steven! You never gave up on me for some reason I don't understand! I'll do the same for you!" She loves that quote and remembers it well.

Shelby owns a Peridot plushie from a con and a cool Peridot pin.
She shares an anecdote about taking ballet and contemporary dance classes the night before.
She attempted to draw Pumpkin on a poster.

Shelby said everyone on the Instagram stream is a clod, including herself.
If Shelby could change anything about Peridot's design, she says she would add dangling disco balls to her outfit.
She says she does not know if Lapis and Peridot would fuse or have fused.

She says she has been doing tap dance since she was 4 and a half years old.
Shelby said she is not sure what her favorite Crying Breakfast Friend is.
For voice acting tips, she says it's acting, so it's important to train. It's important to understand the voice atmosphere, what your character's relationship to others is, know your character's likes and dislikes, don't give up, have fun. She had only booked one voice over role before getting the Peridot gig. She still does acting.
She would definitely do Peridot's voice again if she had a chance.

Silly lil swap au!!! Steven’s mom is white diamond and the og 3 homeworld gems are the crystal gems!! Greg’s still his dad and most of early season one would be pretty much the same but with a more dysfunctional found family cuz they’re silly like that. The og crystal gems are now villains to be redeemed but in like. Slightly different ways idk man- With the diamonds it’s Pink in White’s place and then blue plays a bit more of an aggressive role than yellow does

-Jasper is the first time he sees a gem poof. It’s similar to the pearl episode but it’s a robot Peridot made instead of a pearl hologram- She gets frustrated with Steven not taking his battle training seriously and gets punched straight in the face because of it. She doesn’t stay in her gem nearly as long as pearl does and Peridot actually helps him when this weird lil robot keeps trying to fight him- The only reason Jasper doesn’t come back in a few hours is cuz she’s embarrassed she got poofed me thinks
-Sapphire comes to earth to use her future vision to see the status of the cluster and properly check on it- She has her group of 3 rubys with her and they manage to poof Jasper in the same manner of Garnet getting poofed by Jasper in canon. Ship chaos happens and Jasper manages to poof 2 of 3 rubies while the last one escapes in the escape pod with Sapphire. Steven bubbles the rubies cuz he’s silly like that and wants to make sure they’re going to be ok
-cue a couple fights later and Jasper gets frustrated that she’s lost a few battles to a lone ruby and a sapphire of all gems and starts pushing the other gems away and preventing them from fighting with her- She goes to attack Sapphire while Ruby’s catching her breath since she’s seemingly defenseless but Ruby jumps in and they fuse and sit there having a panic attack. Jasper stands there in shock for a moment cuz she’s not entirely used to fusion either before going to attack again-Only for Steven to jump in the way and save them
-Ruby’s getting stressed over the cluster and pacing in the barn so Lapis recommends Steven goes to show them what it’s like on earth-Cue Sapphire and Ruby slowly realizing they love each other. Also the frog. Steven shows them what a frog is and Ruby excitedly shows it to Sapphire. Gay people-They don’t fuse as often but like. By future they’re permanently fused?? But for the majority of the main series they only fuse when needed
-Amethyst comes to earth to collect Sapphire!! She has her limb enhancers to make up for her height n stuff- Idk how the baseball episode parallels will work but. They’re there. Somehow!! Garnet also gets to fuse to hide Sapphire since Amethyst wouldn’t expect a fusion idk anymore
-garnet somehow manages to poof Amethyst in her panic and Steven unbubbles her because he’s curious about her limb enhancers and peridot won’t tell her because she’s scared of him knowing too much about homeworld. She traps herself in the bathroom peridot style until Steven manages to make her realize she’s safe here and the cluster is bubbled and she’s allowed to be herself and doesn’t have to be afraid of being shattered for being defective if she messes up even slightly. She gets her peridot arc or smthn
-Greg gets taken to the human zoo like in canon but Pearls there with Holly Blue Agate to watch over the humans and their growth. She was sent there after white was shattered as punishment for failing her diamond and it’s seriously messed her up- She does see them being free tho and helps them escape with Greg without thinking- Steven offers for her to tag along and she hesitates until Holly Agate comes along and she immediately jumps in the ship
-Pearl watches Steven sleep like in canon but it’s. Creepier. It’s habit from the human zoo but she starts to investigate his gem in the process and realizes it’s her diamond aka white. She goes to remove the gem to free her diamond back-Maybe get her status back by having white back-Desperation type beat- only to wake Steven who panics and pushes her away- She panics massively and starts sobbing and calling him her diamond
-Instead of the loud distraction yell of “She’s Gone” from pink Steven- Steven accidentally mind controls pink for a split second and it makes them both tumble back- I don’t know fully how this scene would work tbh I gotta brainstorm more but. Ik white diamond Steven has a different set of powers than canon Steven- He’s got whites mind control powers n shit
-Bismuth takes the role of Spinel in the movie!! Not in the same abandoned sense but in a “you ruined our perfect plan” and wants to kill him for it whether her diamond wants her to or not- she’s silly like that!! She resets the gems like Spinel does and Jasper signs her life to Greg like pearl does- She carries him around n is super protective of him. Ma’am’s ready to kill someone on sight for Greg-
-Post-Corrupted Steven gets silly lil corrupted traits still. 1) his gem is flipped so it’s like a horn now 2) he’s got silly lil underbite fangs 3) spikes on his shoulders so his jacket is tied around his waist so it doesn’t get ripped 4) he’s like. Extra extra tired all the time someone save him
You should send me asks about the au it’d be so sexy of you /j

ummm someone tell me why listening to system/BOOT PearlFinal (3) from the SU Movie just gave me the wildest fucking Hazbin AU concept (this is fucking long pls forgive me)
So- Steven Universe Movie x Hazbin Hotel. All of them have just had their memories wiped, their 'default' personalities reset, and not having any idea who they once were. you get to really see what each character would have been like had they not faced whatever horrible thing landed them in Hell to begin with.
Going through that song in particular made me really think, guys. Hear me out.
Lucifer is Rose/Pink in this, so he wouldn't really be there.
Obv Charlie takes her rightful place as Steven, as she is literally, in almost all fucking ways, Adult Demon Steven Universe. Take out the aliens and add in the bible and you got Charlie Morningstar
Lilith is Pearl- She fell in love with the angel that took a liking to her, dedicating everything about her existence to Lucifer. Even when it came to giving up everything, she did it for him. Reset, she's just as dedicated but has no one to give that dedication to. Until...
Yes, ALASTOR HAS TO BE GREG. Lilith may have come from Eden with Lucifer, by his side from the very beginning, but after all those years, I never thought I'd lose... Also, the whole 'pearl latching on to greg as her new diamond' thing makes that EXTRA hilarious. Charlie's gonna be all "Mom, don't you recognize them? Don't you recognize me?" Lilith's overly helpful ass is gonna be like "Hmmmm... Well I certainly recognize my Um Radio Demon!" And Al just, "...Oh boy."
Angel is Ruby, even if he hadn't been raised in the mafia, I'd like to think that Angel would be a solid badass mf either way, dedicated to protecting what he cares about.
Husk is Sapphire, ever think that maybe the reason the oddly wise bartender always seems to know everything isn't because he's a bartender? Uh oh, secret's out, Husky. (not to mention the idea of Huskerdust 'isn't it love' is killing me)
Niffty is Amethyst- except an amethyst is big, and strong... this one is not the best example, something is clearly wrong! (im sorry i have no self control). anyway yall can't tell me that cute little reset 'who am i? whats going on? idk, lemme just copy this guy over here' Niffty wouldn't be the best fucking thing
Now, I don't think it even needs saying that Sir Pentious needs to be Peridot, if you show me both of their pictures I will say 'that's the same picture'
And that means Cherri takes her role as Lapis, which I fuckin adore
As much as I'd like to make Vaggie be Connie, Connie is entirely absent the whole movie lmao and I also think that Bismuth is a damn good gem for Vaggie anyway. Bold, determined, has a deadly hatred of the place she came from and will do anything to defend her new home (gay as shit)
And for spinel, I'm not 100% sure. I'm thinking it could be an adamsapple situation where Adam was left in Eden, forever waiting for Lucifer to return despite the fact that he's essentially dead to the rest of Heaven. once he finds out about Lucifer having made a life for himself in Hell, he goes to take out his jealousy on Charlie and the others. and when he's reset he goes back to a silly, fun loving innocent guy that wants nothing but to make others happy.
Uhhhh oops that got long, im Very Normal about these two shows, guys. i swear.

Fuck it time for random assorted UF ideas I had that I think are pretty neat/interesting/fun and I never got aruond to writing:
Mindful Education would have had angst for all four of our MK; Steven still reeling from Jasper, Bismuth, Rose shattering Pink Diamond, etc. Dipper is still going through it from what Bill did to Stepper in RMD, Connie is upset cause she broke that kid's arm i guess, and Mabel is feelin hella awkward bc she would have only recently accidentally revealed how she feels about Steven to him
Tied into that ^^^ we get the lyrics of Here Comes a Though tying in nicely to how each of them are feeling: "Here comes a thought that might alarm you" (Connie), What someone said and how it harmed you (Steven), Something you did that failed to be charming (Mabel), Things that you said are suddenly swarming (Dipper).
Mindful Education would have also featured appearences from every one of the MK fusions, including Stonipbel's debut! (Ok I'm done talking about Mindful Education now I promise)
The chapter Time Tangled would have essentially been a UF take on the old GF Timestuck AU. So Steven, Dipper, and Mabel would have accidentally wound up 30 years in the past, split up, with Mabel ending up with Stan back then as he's on his way to Gravity Falls, Dipper with Ford in the midst of his peak paranoia, and Steven with Rose during her peak Immense Concern About Ford. Angst ensues.
Weirdmageddon, if I were to write it now, would have a lot going on in it. Yellow and a bunch of Homeworld Gems were gonna roll in along with Bill and hiis Henchmaniacs and it was basically gonna be chaos all around.
After wandering alone as in canon during the apocalypse, Dipper would have eventually ran into Lapis, because of course; he was gonna kind of have a fear driven breakdown bc he has no idea where the hell Mabel or Steven or anyone else is and he's terrified for their lives and Lapis would have comforted him with an original lullaby bc she's his Mom we all already know this
You better believe, after meeting Gideon and hearing about all the trouble he'd caused Dipper earlier that summer, Lapis would have T posed on that 10 year old so agressively imo
She would have also joined Dipper, Soos, and Wendy in venturing into Mabel's bubble, as would have Pearl who would have joined the group at some point; one of the original things inside of the bubble would have been a fake version of Steven who's head over heels for Mabel, finally returning her affections; Pearl would have been the one to talk Mabel down from that, with the two of them sharing solidarity over being in love with someone they knew they couldn't end up having
Some of the more secondary and minor characters would have had a chance to shine thanks to Amethyst, who gathered up a group of them (consisting of Pacifica, Robbie, Lars, Sadie, Greg, maybe a few others?) and escorted them to the safety of the bunker; there, they would have found McGucket, who's been hiding out from the shitstorm outside
In the bunker, they'd all split up, and Pacifica would have found "Dipper" (the shapeshifter) frozen in one of the cryogenic pods so of course she sets him free and "he" tricks her in a gambit to escape the bunker; Amethyst sees through its ruse and fuckin obliterates that thing all over again good for her
Steven would have been captured by Yellow's forces around the same time Ford was captured by Bill (Dipper watches this happen and is unable to stop it hahaha oh no); Garnet and Connie would have teamed up to save him and Peridot would have joined them, essentially pretending to defect back to Homeworld to slip in closer to find Steven
My original plan was for Steven to actually be poofed and meet Rose inside his Gem but now that we know that's not how it works, I would have just had Connie rescue him and all of the MK and Gems regroup at the shack I suppose
There would have been a musical chapter during Weirdmageddon ala Mr. Greg. That's right, a whole chapter of original songs written by me. Fucking suffer.
My original plan was for the Gem temple to be destroyed during Weirdmageddon, thus unleashing all of the bubbled Gems inside of it, including Bismuth and Jasper (who would have somehow wound up uncorrupted idk how)
We would have gotten a lot of fusions showing up again during the big climax battle, with Stonipbel taking center stage in a fight against Yellow Diamond (set to a dramatic dueling duet); this fight would have ened with Yellow being poofed and her forces grabbing her gem and fleeing back to Homeworld
Bill would have split Stonipbel up and nearly killed all four of them until Stan pulls the same trick he does in canon and turns the tables on that fucking triangle, "killing" him (not really cause he returns in UF2 but shhhh)
You'd best believe Amethyst would have had a fucking meltdown when she finds out Stan's memories are gone and he has no idea who she is; it would probs also strike a strong cord with Steven and Dipper, reminding them of the time when Stepper went through something pretty damn similar
I would have dedicated more time to Stan getting his memories back, mostly fluffy, sweet moments building into it
With the temple destroyed and so many corrupted Gems on the lose, Steven and the Gems made plans to leave Gravity Falls to round them all up. With the warp pad also broken, they would have all gone with Greg in his van. That's basically what they'd be doing in the span of time between UF and UF2.
The epilogue would have leaned heavily into MK fluff and bonding, the four of them promising to return to Gravity Falls next summer, I would have absolutely cried while writing it.
Along with Steven, Connie, and the Gems, Lapis and Peridot would def be at the bus stop to see Dipper and Mabel off; there would be just... so many tears all around esp between the MK god
I would have included two scenes in the epilogue, one hinting at Bill retuning in UF2 and one of Yellow reforming on her ship and coming up with her Human Biowepons Operation which would eventually lead into UF2's Stonemason arc
And that's all I got maybe I'll do these for UF2 and UFF as well idk
#i just got unfufilled ideas on the brain#i may write smoe of these as drabbles idk#weirdmageddon would have been somethin ahahah#jen writes#universe falls

Things that happen at home:
I had a very good birthday yesterday…went to a coin expo and geeked out with my dad, I bought a proof set of Irish and Norwegian currency (pre euro, nothing wrong with modern coins but it’s just neat to see what used to be minted) found a proof set of Vatican coins that were probably just novelty but it’s still cool (minted 1952)
There was a very nice gentleman who sold antique 925 silver jewelry that I bought a few sets of vintage clip on earrings from.
I’m going to pause, and preface this story with the universal truth that being patient and kind will pay off in the end.
Anyway, the first time I’m going through the jewelry that Very Nice Gentleman has to offer, it’s my first circuit of the whole expo, I want to budget accordingly, and there might be something that Pops Out to me later that I Just Have To Have. So I spend my first $70, circle around (I’ve been coming to this specific expo for about three years now so I recognize the vendors who have what I like) pick up my proof sets, and land back at Very Nice Gentleman’s booth.
I tell him straight up “Well, you guys definitely have the best jewelry selection in the whole expo.”
VNG: Oh, you should see the whole three boxes of stuff that I brought and haven’t even priced yet. I’ll sell you anything you want by weight.
Me: *spends the next hour helping an 80+ year old man sort literal sandwich bags full of antique silver jewelry, talking shit about living in New Mexico, and learning a fuck ton about Native American artist stamps, while his son (50s, economics professor in Fairbanks AK, talked shit about living in Alaska with him as well) checks on us periodically*
My dad, in the middle of all this: *catches my attention* Hey. Doin’ alright?
Me:…wanna see what your birthday present to me looks like?
My Dad: …yeah, alright. You like the same kind of stuff my mother did, so it’s at least going to be interesting. *proceeded to buy exactly one bracelet that was made out of “plantation 1948” silverware because “the only good thing that’s come out of the South in the last 50 years is their food. I hate the way they vote but good god they make some AWESOME ribs.”*
Me: *spends another 30 minutes sorting jewelry with VNG before birthday calls start coming in, I’m getting hungry, SO and mom and siblings all want to meet up, Dad is mia* hey, I need to check out or pay up, I’ve got my family wanting me, so I need to take off now.
VNG: Oh, yeah, let’s get you started then. *proceeds to ring up my purchases in the most painfully slow manner possible because he’s 80+ and all analog* (literally he had a calculator that printed out the receipts, it had a bunch of finger grime on the number keys, he’d clearly been using it for decades, honestly it was so awesome but super frustrating)
Me: *being patient, being nice and kind and friendly, regardless of the situation*
VNG: *rings me up, gives me my total, then WINKS and throws in a $50 pair of vintage clip-on, lapis lazuli with gold inlay earrings*
Me: *KARMA, BITCH! Be fucking nice to people All The Time Regardless of Circumstances!!!! VINDICATION!!!*
My Dad, after I found him again and told him the factual events: Sweet deal! Sometimes I’m actually glad when you don’t listen to me!
My dad’s advice to all of you would be “don’t ever say anything, at all if preferably, but only give yes or no answers to anyone who works in insurance or government.”

This is very stupid, years late, misremembered and not at all researched but I’ve always been confused the reading that Lapis was the abuser in Malachite relationship.
Because like imagine you’re a guy who was imprisoned by an evil regime for some stuff that wasn’t really wrong. You spend thousands of years imprisoned alone on alien planet until some random 12 year old frees you. Dope. You’re just chilling trying to find out what the fucks happened since you’ve been gone when some super amped up cop arrests you. Again.
While you’re chilling in space prison, the same 12 year old shows up to break you out. The space cop arrested him and punched out all four of his gay mums. You say I can’t fight a jacked up space cop, he leaves and you feel guilty.
Then two of his gay moms punch out the space cop with the power of lesbianism and do so with so much lesbianism they crash the space ship you’re all on. You survive the crash- sweet- and are about to flee the scene. When space cop grabs you and asks for the power of gay love to beat the lesbians pulling out teammate handcuffs. Fuck it. You say yes. The minute she cuffs you to her, you fling the both of you off a cliff into a hole. Every time the cop tries to get out of the hole you pull her back in. It is a vicious ugly cycle that is unhealthy for both of you.
Somehow you get out of the hole. (I literally don’t remember how this happens and I think this post is funnier if I don’t google it. Something to do with sending dream telegrams to the 12 year old?). The 12 year old who is literally your only friend tries to set you up with an abandoned barn or something. You still aren’t doing great obviously. Then the space cop crawls out of the ocean on her hands and knees begging to go back into the pit with you.

Name: Maude Starlong Nicknames: Em, Sunflower
Gender: Female
Birth World: Arcadia Home World: Lapis [MCSM World] Current Residence: Starling House
Birthday: 06/15
Physical Appearance: A very short and petite young lady with rose red hair, sky blue eyes, and warm peach skin, that dresses in the more girly kind of feminine outfits. The words to describe her wardrobe would be Cottage Core.
Age: 18
Personality: A ray of sunshine with a heart of gold is what has been used to describe this young lady.
Relationships;
Katarina Starling - Mother - Maude somewhat remembers her mother’s face and has scant memories of her singing her to sleep as an infant. She knows more about her mother than her dad; however, due to the stories Uncle Eulen tells them about his life with their mother before they grew up. She’s got a more positive look to her mother than her sister does.
Unknown - Dad [Unknown] - Uncle called him worse than a deadbeat dad. And it’s not like she remembers him anyway. She feels nothing about this guy because there’s nothing to remember.
Eulen - Uncle - Eulen has been a wonderful caretaker in her eyes. The relationship with her uncle is good; if not a bit stressful, the older man needs to take more care of himself.
Xander - Cousin - Maude’s dealings with her cousin are much the same as Uncle Hedge. Apples not falling far from the tree and all that. However she is more than happy to have him ramble off to her about his current hyper-fixation while she works. Xander keeps asking her if there’s anything he can do or help with to make her job easier, and Maude politely declines each time.
Evelyn - Older Sister - The relationship with her older sister is good, but sometimes it can be a little draining. Both of them have opposite opinions of their mother. Maude does her best to try and paint Katarina as this noble soul that went off to fight for justice, while Evie in her mind treats her like a deadbeat mom that abandoned them.
About: The youngest daughter of Katarina is a sweet and friendly girl who has taken it upon herself to be the mom-friend to their group on the island. She practically runs the rest of the house all by herself, takes charge of the more mundane tasks; while her wizard cousin and uncle are elbow deep in research, and also while her aloof elder sister is training night and day. She is very soft spoken and quite polite even with strangers, although she shouldn’t be thought of as completely helpless.

Something took over and I need to rant about Steven Universe.
Mainly Peridot.

I was thinking about how when a characters is canonically aromantic/asexual it's exciting and nice to see
But I don't feel that way about Peridot. I've now realized my problem is less about the character and more with how they handled it
Factor 1: They choose to represent her being aro/ace by having her not take part in fusion
Implying that fusion is in some way sexual (or at the very least romantic) Meaning all of these are sexual or romantic acts:






(Stevonnie is fine if it's only romantic) So what they're saying is fusion is not just a reflection of connection in their varied relationships or even just a magic space power holding no strong meaning
I think worse is that Peridot not wanting to fuse/not liking fusion could have been used to show how autistic individuals don't connect with people in the same ways as neurotypical do
Factor 2: And this one is admittedly much more shallow but I think it help explain why her canon sexuality got ignored so hard by the fandom
Peridot is one of the only gems who gets screen time and gets to interact with other gems who isn't Steven's family/family coded
Like Garnet acts like a mom or aunt to Steven (and is technically spoken for) Pearl acts like a mom or aunt to Steven Amethyst acts more like a sister to Steven Lapis basically hates most of the cast Then most of the other gems are isolated/don't get enough screen time to develop much of a personality if any And almost every time a human shows interest in one of the gems they get shot down so there's that
Basically Peridot is set up to be the only strong character for shipping without splitting hairs on "is that actually okay?" - until they said 'actually she would never date anyone, not even smooch'
Like what was to stop them from making Amethyst the aro/ace character? They shot making Lapis one in the foot with the whole forced fusion plot point. They still could but with how asexuality gets associated with trauma it wouldn't look good OR make more than one main cast member display this sexuality - not everything has to be romantic driven (just seems weird that a show about relationships only show two romantic relationships develop)


(all other romantic relationships were already happening/happen off screen: Sadie and Shep, Garnet (Ruby and Sapphire), Rose and Greg, Rhodonite and Fluorite)
My man problem is the crew tied Peridot's sexuality to fusion which for me makes it feel like I'm in the trolley problem with: A. accept Peridot as aro/ace and that Steven who is a child did a romantic/sexual with most the main cast who are his family (outside of Connie) or B. ignore Peridot's sexuality and see fusion as a non-romantic/non-sexual act that could be romantic (like an embrace) I know that I can see Peridot as aro/ace without seeing fusion as sexual but the hoops I have to jump through to reach that makes it feel more like a headcanon then actual canon so it's just frustrating
THE ONLY REASON I FEEL THIS WAY IS THEY ACT LIKE HER NOT WANTING TO FUSE IS IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE THAT SHE'S AROMANTIC AND ASEXUAL (They 100% could have just said "Peridot is aro/ace because she is." Instead of linking it to fusion directly!)
#steven universe#su#peridot#steven universe peridot#steven universe fusion#like boo-hoo whatever on the shipping part#they should have set hard rules for fusion if they were going to say things like this#it's insane that Steg happened AFTER Peridot was confirmed as aro/ace#like what did the crew expect people to think after saying fusion was romantic/sexual???

How strong could Steven be?
Okay, let me rephrase, how strong is the Pink Diamond gem?
Because, let's take a second to actually think about it. There are some abilities that seem to be EXPECTED of gems. They might not all do them since for some it would be "below their station," but they could do it.
1. Sumon a weapon
2. Shapeshift
3. Fuse
4. Adjust their gravitational pull of a planet on their gem to adjust to a celestial body's gravity
5. The ability to bubble
Of course, these are the ESTABLISHED things that every gem SHOULD be able to do (we'll get to Era 2 gems in a second). However, I'd like to add
6. Make a flashlight out of their gem (we see Pearl and Peridot do so when they visit the moon, and it makes sense to be a natural ability since their physical bodies are just holograms with light)
7. Be able to store items in their gems.
These are the basic abilities of a gem, yet there are special powers some gems have.
Sapphires- ice manipulation/ future vision
Lapis- water manipulation
Ruby- fire production
Peridots- metal control
Now one thing about them is that the powers designated to them are IT. Now, it's fair to say that as a gem grows and learns, they can expand on their skill (Pearl did learn how to shoot lasers after the gem War after all), but they concept of their powers stay the same.
For example, as much as Sapphire was shown to be a beast with her ice abilities in a Single Pale Rose, she will never manipulate or produce fire. This is where the Diamonds differ and follow their subjects at the same time.
Blue- gem emotional control (her power doesn't work on humans)
Yellow- physical form manipulation (she can poof any gem/ change their shape or attributes as seen with Garnet in Future)
White- possession voluntary or forced.
Pink - destruction and creation (living or nonlicing)
It's their powers that make me believe that diamonds are needed not just to rule but to make other gems. During Era 2, gems weren't made the same as Era 1 gems as Peridot says she can't shape-shift, but why would that be? Because Pink diamond was gone. With a limited supply of her essence, just like Yellow was having her essence taken in her sauna, they had to portion out what they gave to gems. This would explain what "junk" is put into the ground when gems are made as Amethyst references during Classroom Gems.
This would even explain why the Diamonds kept Pink. While yes, they loved and appreciated her presence, she holds no functional use to the empire, which you would imagen the Diamonds wouldn't be found of, especially when she undermines them constantly and sets a bad example. However, they couldn't get rid of her, not even before they got attached because her essence allowed for the creation of more gems, and there is no guarantee that another being with her power could exist.
Yellow sets a gem to have a physical form.
Blue sets them to have responses.
White sets them to have a purpose.
Pink sets them to have the extra energy to come to life just as the organic material on colonies are sucked up for a gem to use. In fact, I would bet that Pink's essence is what allows gems to exist without needing to do something like recharge or something of the sort. Think about it, whatever energy is sucked from the dirt is bound the run out at some point. Plant life isn't infinite; however, a diamonds power could be.
This is why I question how strong Pink actually is. The diamonds hold compete control over their "domain," even controlling or manipulating what could be considered the opposite of their powers. The thing that makes Pink different from the other diamonds is that her powers WORK on not only things that aren't alive, they work on non gem beings.
Steven fixed his teddy bear and destroyed several non-living materials. He heals gems and humans, for fuck sake both him and his mom brought something to life. And speaking about that. I would like to discuss both lars and lion right now. Specifically their powers.
Now, making the assumption that they got a power up post resurrection could be assumed to be that the Pink Diamond essence pulled so much weight in helping them that the essence is now embedded in them and so they received a power up. It makes sense. Like gems creating distabalisers using Yellow's essence or creating a planet destroying weapon (Spinel) using Pink's essence. The thing I have a problem with is the powers they receive.
1. Long life (okay)
2. Dimensional pocket in hair (makes sense, gems have pockets in their gems)
3. Shock wave or lion's roar (ehh, kinda makes sense with Steven's destruction ability. Okay)
4. Portal creation (what?)
Portal creation was one of the powers lion got. That doesn't make sense based on what we know and can assume Pink can do. What the fuck.
The situation isn't helped in the fact that Pink can make pebbles purely on her own without the help of the other Diamonds.
So, considering Pink Diamond has a hold on
Crearion
Destruction
On ANYTHING
and is CRUCIAL for gem production and can extend the ability towards others just as they can get into someone's head/ control them
I ask again: how strong is the Pink Diamond gem?
And if he gets enough training, how strong could Steven become?

Captain Starfish Cookie - Retired Sailor, Still questioning his sexuality.
He was supposed to be in oc x cannon, but I didn't like that idea anymore so Imma just say he's good friends with Candy Diver when they were alive. Candy Diver see's him before going on with their job. And Captain Starfish always wishes them good luck every time they go on to their job. And He was devasted when he heard they crumbled. It wasn't the same and he couldn't cope with it. Candy diver reminded him of his younger days that he missed, which is why he was sad about their death.
But seeing Candy diver in the present(Where CD was their dead form) He would try to stay at least a distance because he's unsure if they still remember him.
Captain starfish is also close friends with Captain Caviar!
Ik Candy diver is likely a died as a child in the cannon, but PLEASE respect my headcannons-
Pineapple Sailor Cookie - Formerly Pirate Pineapple, Lesbian: Fell in love with Ocean Lapis Cookie.
I never really thought of her character, but yeah.
She's a lone wolf and an adventurous soul. Preferably works alone and for herself, somewhat frenemies with captain starfish, was a former pirate but mostly for money. Became a sailor because she wanted to move on and saw how sick her actions were.
In her few days as a sailor, she once fell for a gem mermaid, Lapis cookie. Lapis' Beauty has always been stuck in PS' head. She didn't know how to approach her at some point cause she's been aware of the "Pearl incident" (aka the thing that happened in mermaid's tale, I just like to call it that-) and thinking land cookies were a somewhat a danger to gem mermaids. So she only admires her from afar. Angst? Yes.
Clam Cookie - Also an Retired Sailor, A f_<king homosexual.
Clam cookie can be a possible relative for Oyster Cookie ^^
But also never thought much for his character.
He used to work alongside Captain Starfish before they part ways when they retired. He wasn't too familiar with Candy diver but he alot of respect for them cause they're a diver. Clam and starfish are good friends and still are, And Captain Caviar is more close with Clam since is a (possible) relative with Oyster Cookie and Captain Caviar has been long time friends with her.
This is a boykisser. Trust me.
Ocean Lapis Cookie - Gem mermaid, Unsure Sexuality. The (adopted) child of Sea Fairy and Moonlight.
Ocean Lapis is between the second or first oldest of the gem mermaids. Being gifted to control the sea from the Almighty sea(aka her mom).
She always remained stoic and always had a calm expression on her face. But just a note, Never face the wrath of the sea or the ocean itself. So never underestimate Ocean Lapis. Or Sea fairy for that matter.
She seen most land cookies as a threat, but had to give Captain caviar a chance because Black Pearl likes him(Possible Black Pearl x Captain Caviar). But she trusts any cookie from the city of wizard since its also technically her relatives-ish. (Stardust, Milkyway, etc) from Moonlight. So she has Affective ambivalence for land cookies.
That's all!! :)
(Please don't copy, you can take inspiration but PLEASE don't copy.)

SUV (Yes that is what I'm calling it)
Hello everyone and thank all 28 (woah) for voting in my first poll! Now this doesn't mean all of my au's are out of the picture but y'all asked and y'all will receive. So context I made this AU when I was very little I just happened to get into Steven Universe and Voltron at the same time. SVTFOE was also supposed to be here but I couldn't find a way to make it fit and make sense in the grand story.
But let's into it starting with headcannons, or canons since I'm the creator? Idk what to call them
Aqua
•Daughter of Lance and Lapis she is kinda the group leader. Born on March 5, 2125 (Pisces) in Beach City, Delaware. She actually got the hang of her powers pretty young compared to her friends and luckily for her the city actually became a city, now being the gem human capital of the world. She went to school at little homeschool and became a volunteer for the place. Since her parents were still close there kids became friends, a little more then friends actually.
•Aqua and Jay have only been dating for a few months now, in my mind it's around maybe 6-8 but the two deeply care about each other. Sometimes on dates Aqua will let him ride on her back and they just fly around the city with no cares in the world, even exploring the ocean. The two have even fused into Iolite on occasions, or as they like to call them, Io.
•But the girl has secrets, secrets she doesn't want even her closest friends to know. SHE'S A FANFIC WRITER. Her favorite show is called Moon Mist and it's about intergalactic medieval space fighters who go on daring quests and wonderful adventures. She thinks it's embarrassing though, even her friends make fun of her cause they kinda think the show is dumb.
•The girl's hair is genetic, along with all of her friends. Hair like that has become a lot more common since gem and human relations have gotten better.
•Even seeing a fish dead or in food can make the girl shed a tear she hates it, flying around the ocean, picking up trash, it makes her dad proud.
•Just like her mother, she has dabbled in the art of watercolor and other medians of paint. A little fun though she can never seem to get it right, even with her practice it's hard.
•Like the rest of her friends though, they miss their moms. Aqua misses hers the most, with all the other lazuli's flying around and teaching her how to use her powers, she can't help but still long for that tear drop hole in her heart.
Jay
•Kid of Hunk and Amethyst and heir to the Garrett cooking empire he is the the kid under, what he feels is crazy pressure. Born on April 28, 2124 (Taurus) in New Orleans, Louisiana he's the oldest out of the kids. Unlike the other kids his dad left Earth only a few months after he was born. With the growing empire of his dad's restaurant caused the two to move around a lot, never staying in one place for more then a few months. He hates it though. Every month is a new place farther and farther away from his friends, and lover.
•As his mother and father always say, the key to love is through a persons stomach, and he lives by that. It's how he shows his love to all his friends and family, especially with Aqua. He's always there when she needs a pick me up with her favorite homemade ice cream, or just on the fly with her burger.
•Being a shapeshifter Jay had always struggled with his identity, till when he was 13 he finally realized he was xenogender. Not being tied to any real gender or any concept of it. Then again his friends don't care about whatever he identifies as or choses to be, as long as he's Jay, him and them are happy.
•Hunk never once put pressure on his kid. He was always scared that he'd be like him when he was a teen, scared of everything and not wiling to be adventurous. But Hunk never had to do that oh no, oh no, Jay did that to himself. He feels like his has to continue his fathers legacy in some way to make him proud, even though the guy couldn't be prouder
•He tries to visit his friends as much as possibly, even if they are miles and miles away
•He's always trying new combos of food and making his friends taste them. Mostly there good, sometimes there amazing, but on the rare expected times he makes something bad, it's bad. Like, that one time he gave everyone food poisoning for a week straight.
Rose
•Child of Shiro and Pink Pearl she's a flip flop of characters. She's smart but stupid, naive and paranoid, no one can get a real good read on her. When she born Shiro and his husband had been wanting a kid and well, him and pink pearl had become really good friends so she decided to sacrifice herself to give her friend what he wanted. And before you know it with a little science, Rose popped out on November 31, 2135 in New York, New York.
•When she was about 3 her family moved to LA for Shiro's job which lead to Rose being around all the finder things in life. She wasn't the top 1% her family was just, rich, a Glinda type.
•As a kid her house was always the house the group would want to hang out with since it had all the hottest games and toys and everything a kid could want. But now it's just one of the many places they go to hang out.
•Even with her high statis in life, she always wished she's could be a run of the mill kid. No famous parent, no riches, wished she could go back into the past and when she found out about the 2000s through 2090s? God she was amazed. Which led her to spiral more, into the 1990s, 80s, 70s, 60s, 50s, times gone by. But she knows that's never gonna be her life.
•Like I mentioned, Rose makes bracelets for her friends, but her favorite is the one she made for Elliot. She doesn't fully know why but he's always been special to her
Elliot
•Speaking of which it's the man of the hour! Elliot was born April 3rd, 2124 (Aries) in the desserts of New Mexico along with his sister. After years Ruby and Sapphire wanted kids so Keith helped them out which lead them to give up there forms to make them.
•Elliot got Ruby's side which lead to anger, lots of angry mumbling, and only being able to focus on one thing at a time. The guy was never the best in school being known as the joker and pranker which got him in trouble with his dad. Along with Ruby's anger he got her powers and weapon
•Even with his troubles, the guy is surprisingly smart with fire. Since it can't effect him like a normal person he's always trying to find something to make his powers stronger, better, it's why he carries around a pair of goggles, it blows up in his face!
•He'd never admit this to anyone, but he has a minor crush on Rose. He thinks she so sweet and pretty and caring, and he couldn't help but smile more then he did anytime of his life when she gave him that bracelet. He's always careful with it, a bit paranoid about losing or blowing it up lmao
•He looks up to his Galura grandmother and wishes to be like her. We’ll more like have the markings of a Galura.
Frost
• Born April 3rd, 2134 Frost is the opposite of her brother. Even though the two are known to get into mischief once in a while her grades are out of this world, has really good control of her powers, yet not as popular as her more extroverted brother, but she doesn’t care.
• The girl got the powers of ice and future vision, only the future vision kinda stinks. It’s always a blur whenever they try to use it
•Is like Keith at the start of Voltron, she even takes her outfit from what he looked like as a teenager just changed the color to blue
•Was apart of some sports teams, but it never worked out for her
•Want to be just like her dad and be a pilot, even though Keith is scared it would be to dangerous from her even if he does encourage it
•Has a few other friends outside the friend group from clubs and volunteering
•Dances her sadness out when something bad happens. Just goes to the bathroom and busts it down lmao
Alexis
•Born February 5th, 2135 at 2:00am on a Saturday in New Mexico, with the two biggest brains on the team, they’re a super genius. They were made in a tube and laid dormant for almost nine months, but they came out pre-mature
•Alexis took a few years to warm up to the rest of the group, it was till 7 she begun to talk but used a tablet to speech to her mother. She never exactly liked the group at first, she could never understand how they worked, or any humans work really
• She despises the feeling of dirt and grime on her skin, it why unlike her mothers she hate gardening and going outside with a passion. It’s why they’re so pale.
•Has metal powers which are useful since also like their mothers, they love and adore tech and think it's better then any magical power out there
•Avid gamer that has one of those 'I paused my game to be here' shirts they were around the Garrison, it's where here and the twins go to school
•Buts heads with Frost a lot since the two are both the smartest kids there. But they do study together and for Alexis Frost is the only other person aside from their mother who they can have intelligent conversation with
•Yet that doesn't make them immune to drama. TV DRAMA THAT IS, Alexis is crazy about camp pining hearts were talking watching every episode, movie, cast interviews. Reading every book, script, even creating a whole video essay spanning 10 hours explaining every episode and plot point in the show in so much detail it could make your head spin
•For some reason dogs have always been special to them
That's it! If y'all want more just tell me cause I got a lot more

Straight to Video got me wallowing in the fact that every member of the Pines family (specifically in UF canon, actual GF canon is different) is all a little fucked up actually I mean just look at this family tree, you got:
Filbrick: literally kicked his 17 year old son out of the house; also apparently made that same son stand outside with a “Stan for sale sign” when he was just a kid what the fuck
Caryn (Ma Pines, for the uninitiated): pathological liar; probs has def scammed her customers (she was a phone psychic come on they’re all total frauds)
Shermie: we know fuck all about him in canon and he probs actually won’t show up in UF itself but he probs committed some kind of war crime in Vietnam and also wasn’t the best dad toward Aaron which explains why Aaron turned out like… well…
Ford: do I even need to go into all the stupid shit this idiot has done (built a doomsday portal, basically caused Fiddlefords mental breakdown, probably fucked an evil triangle, and that’s just off the top of my head)
Stan: unknown amount of fake ids, banned from half the states in the country, international criminal, faked his own death, but he is also still probs the most based Pines tbh well either him or Mabel
Aaron: the saddest, wettest man, doesn’t know how to parent, crumbles under the pressure of his wife giving him a Mean Look, absolute loser tbh
Allison (technically not a Pines but shhh): actively hates her own family, arrogant Bitch, is 100% the reason why both of her children have extremely low self esteem
Dipper: Anxiety af, inferiority complex for days, also just extremely spiteful and resentful tbh? Bad at emotionally connecting with others and when he does he inevitably either loses them (Lapis) or crashes out with them (Steven), self sacrificial as hell bc he values himself so damn little jfc
Mabel: also extremely low self esteem but she’s better at masking it through aggressive positivity; terrified of growing up and losing the one stable connection she has in her life (Dipper) to the point that she crashes out and accidentally causes the apocalypse (Mabel hater crowd sit the fuck down I’m joking); in Denial of how bad her family is imo girl please stop defending your mom she ain’t worth it
Stonemason: idk man he just goes and fucks off to live in the woods to get away from all the above forementioned freaks good for him
(MK2 bonus round)
Ava: constantly arguing with her dad bc she’s as stubborn as he is and doesn’t understand how insensitive it is to ask her father why he has a prosthetic robot arm; curious little shit who doesn’t understand boundaries and is constantly crossing them
Abigail: goober on a grind; nobody putting pressure on her to over succeed but herself, calm down girlie you are stressing yourself out and it’s bad for your health
Tyrone: Anxiety again (probs inherited from his fucking dad, thanks Steven), shy little baby, he is constantly overwhelmed by his insane fucking cousins me too fam
Alex: he’s a literal baby but he’s a Pines so he’s bound to grow up to be fucked up somehow idk
#it’s in the pines family dna to be Like That#I don’t make the rules#it’s all filbricks fault I’m choosing to blame him#he’s the reason why they all like this#ancestry or something something bad roots on the tree#get it bc they’re PINES#I’m not funny#Jen rambles#universe falls
