#that he can't talk with the gems

[princess-earthquake-the-third]

Steven shattering jasper is actually such a fun writing decision.

Because like, here's Steven,the perfect human gem hybrid who can do no wrong,the kind hero of the Galaxy that changed thing for the better, the sweet boy who loves his family very much.

But then you have the argument he has with Greg, the thing with Connie , ignoring the gems and what happened with the cactus that he grew, trying to shatter White, and actually shattering jasper, pretty much the second biggest sin in gem society (or the first, depends on where most gems fall on whether forced fusion is shitty or not that's unrelated though).

Where does it leave you when this person who you love , who you thought was the epitome of compassion, lashes out and hurts someone (or possibly you)?

Steven shattering jasper isn't meant to be a one to one mirror to the reality of someone who struggles with mental illness obviously (the whole series does this thing where it elevates the stakes because when you're dealing with an alien species of immortal light beings it's kind of difficult to make things stick).

But the gems reaction to it (horror,then worry ,then understanding,then help) is such a good choice too, because someone struggling with mental illness, especially what Steven was going through (thinking himself to be an actual irredeemable monster) doesn't really need to be told that what they did was bad, they're quite aware, it's literally haunting Steven to the point of dissociation,what they'd need is a proper support network to deal with Thier problems,or learn to live with them.

Pac: I wish I had a really nice background story for my- why I'm here. But you know, Felps just crashed the ship and I'm stuck! Fit: You've got an interesting history though, Pac! I mean, look at you escaping that prison! Like, that was not easy for you to do. [...] You've told me lots of stories about yourself and Mike's adventures. You've got a very interesting backstory. Pac: Thank you Fit, thank you. I'm glad to hear that you think it's cool. Fit: I mean– the cannibalism part, that sucks, but it is– It's cool! It's cool.

People keep wondering when Pac's going to tell Fit how he lost his leg, but during their date last week, Fit implied that their characters already had this discussion! Although this could've been an OOC part of their conversation, they've referenced this specific part of Pac's lore in past streams (this is just the most explicit example we've had so far).

Pac: I wish I had a really nice- um, background story - background story for my- why I'm here. But you know, Felps just crashed the ship and I'm stuck!

Fit: [Chuckles] Well no- you've got an interesting history though, Pac! I mean, look at you escaping that prison! Like, that was not easy for you to do.

Pac: ...No, yeah, you're right.

Fit: You know, and you've been- you have- you've told me lots of stories about yourself and Mike's adventures, like– You've got a very interesting backstory.

Pac: Thank you Fit, thank you. I'm glad to hear that you think it's cool.

Fit: I mean, I mean– the cannibalism part, I mean, that sucks, yeah, but it is– It's cool! It's cool.

Pac: Yeah, right? Yeah- that's- that's not a good part, right? Yeah, I- ugh, yeah, it's a– [He takes a deep breath] Yeah. It's ok.

Fit: Y-yeah, yeah...

Pac: It's ok.

Etho: lately I've been to yours (Gem's) base more than my own

Etho: i just heard that (toggle sprint) is what Gem does so I wanted to do it too

He's so down bad brooooo!!!!!!!

[raindropren]

I just realized that my last post was gonna talk about how Gem is displaying actual bad behavior(i feel like a daycare teacher everytime I type out "bad behavior"...) by trying to turn everyone against Pearl and Impulse. but I totally forgot that! in my rant and ramble about Scott's stupid little silly allyship(???) with the person that wants two(aka more then half) of his teammates dead,,,, that man,,, intrigues me so...

Anyways! By Scott saying that he's trying not to enable bad behavior he's basically letting Gem's actual bad behavior fall unnoticed. He's trying to clean up Pearl's, at this point, very small mess while actively ignoring that there's a way bigger mess that's also sentient AND TRYING TO KILL HIS TEAMMATES(AKA PEARL!?!?!?).

anyways. Gem is showing some real mean girls type shit <3

[correct-hermitcraft-quotes]

Gem, very earnestly to Imp and Skizz: You guys are my favourite.

[chrisrin]

[to-be-a-dreamer]

My favorite thing is when people are having a conversation and something wild happens around them but they just go back to talking like nothing ever happened

Headphone Warning: the audio is super loud for some reason idk why but turn your volume wayyyyyy down

I think this season has broken them

//Quick sketch of the result I got from this wheel earlier. Deeply hilarious that out of all the gems Lambda got assigned out of that generator, it had to be a Sapphire LMAO

so with the gem au. how did dream get out of the box? how'd he meet foolish? do u have a gem for sam yet, or ideas about any other characters or what they're doing? :3c

AHH TY MOSS I HAVE SO MANY THOUGHTS...

so techno (rhodonite) hears that Sam (idk what his gem is gonna be yet 🤔) made dream into a box (dream did some nebulous crime idk what yet) and teams up with Phil (tree agate) to go unbox dream. Happens pretty similar to the canon prison break from the dsmp!

Sam was using dream to essentially power this entire gem settlement and techno is pretty horrified bc hey, that's his buddy! and also a person! you cant do that to a person, let alone a person who's his buddy!

These are pretty rough designs so idk if I'll stick to them but I do like phils. Sam also goes full freak mode over dreams escape and is like "oh next time I'll just convince him to fuse with me and that way I can keep him from escaping" and there's a non zero chance dream goes along with it.

(dream used to be in essential a perma-fusion with Sapnap and George until the ill defined conflict happens and they split. Dream desperately longs for that closeness with anyone but also fundamentally rejects it with people he thinks kindly of.)

Dream now freshly freed from his amazon packaging goes back to his home to just protect it from people who want to colonize it. Think crystal gems but a whole lot more violent.

Enter foolish! Foolish, who had been bubbled for thousands of years and has only been running around for like the last 50 or so, is struggling to find his place in this diamond free universe. He ends building a bunch of stuff on the same world that dream's from, which was overrun with conflict in the about 100 years dreams been boxed. Dream meets him post box, they end up having similar interests so they work together. They mess around with the idea of fusing, and also maybe kiss. Yippee!!

Techno and Phil have a farm together paradot and lapis style. Q is somewhere causing problems, and I can only imagine the source for most of the problems stems from wilbur.

(Also foolish is from era 1 gems, everyone else except Phil and techno are from like era 6 basically. The diamond authority has been over for a very long time)

weird urge to play through thieves in time again even tho i know it will just make me angry >:(

[haru-chi]

Me : the recent drama CD had everyone in it except Seiji, don't ask me why or I'll cry !!!

My friend : I don't need to ask you why since the answer is simple. It was because of you, you cursed him and that's the fate of anyone you fall deeply with so I'm not surprised anymore :)

Me : .......!!!

My friend : please don't love who I love too, don't curse them ~

Me : How very rude of you !!!!
