I guess this is happening. This is what reading a really good fancomic does to you

Steven Universe au. It's called Darkworld.

The gist is "What if the Crystal Gems weren't the first rebellion?"

Long ago, perhaps even before Pink Diamond's birth, there was a rebellion. Like the one that came after, it was scrubbed clean from Homeworld's history.

This was a bit harder, given that this rebellion, with the combination of rigging the warp network and a very powerful gem at their disposal, stole half the planet away, in a mitosis-like procedure. The immediate resource crisis that came from it was the hardest to hide.

It was an interstellar fight, allegiances bouncing back and forth, until both sides couldn't take the losses from fighting anymore, and it stopped.

To this day, the gems of Darkworld hop their stolen planet from system to system, hiding away from the Diamonds' light.

This is my oldest au. Ever. Never seen the light of day until now.

It started as a "far in the future" au, but now it's this.

I got a lot of things to say about it, it's very detailed. I could talk about

Nova, the fusion leader of this rebellion

Black Diamond, the controversial figure that replaced Nova (they're mother and daughter)

The first naturally born gem in eons, Kyanite, also known as Nora (on purpose)

The planet wide restoration efforts to undo the damage caused by the Diamond Authority, that allowed Nora to be born

The story of a Spinel that is no longer used for fun, instead relegated solely to interrogating rebels, nicknamed The Spider

Black Diamond's ship and living quarters, which is a giant sword to go with the Diamond Mech

Nora's caretakers, a Peridot and Rhodonite.

Not sure if I'll write a fic going through it bit by bit, but maybe. It's what I've finally been doing with other stuff.

I think it'd be fun if a non-Cure from one season got a transformation item from another season.

Like, if the HapCharge and GoPri Cures were fighting some new guy near Noble Academy and Yui ends up getting her own PreChange Mirror. Or if Regina (I like Cure Joker but just ignore her for a minute) got a Sky Mirage from Ellee. Or if the Max Heart Cures are helping protect the Healin' Garden and Shiho and Rina get their own Healin' Animal partners. Maybe Syrup could get a PreHeart and be a mailman themed Cure.

And design wise, they could all pull a Cure Echo and mix each season's designs. Yui could have the distinctive vest of the Happiness Charge Cures and everything else would be in line with the Go! Princess designs. Regina could maybe share some design cues from Cure Ace? I'm not completely sure what Hirogaru aspects she would get. But functionally, they would have the powers of whatever season their transformation device comes from.

Another frög! 🐸🍄🌾 this ones sweepy💤

[quinn-pop]

yet another oc that only exists because i wanted to write something very specific

(middle is a little older, hence her scar healing. i like to think she gets a glass eye at some point)

anyway this is mira! (they/she) since that wip is almost 20k words and counting i won’t give away too much but long story short she’s the result of meta going “one last time, i promise” and adopting yet another kid

also galaxia kinda indirectly picked the name :)

i’ve mentioned before that i headcanon that pretty much all astrals are autistic and this is just kinda an extension of that. whereas meta tends to suppress his emotions and conform to others, mira…doesn’t. she gets uncomfortable and upset and lashes out at people easily, and working through their emotions is no small task.

the main reason i chose to write them that way was for the sake of narrative but i’ve grown attached to it because there’s a lot of ideas there i’d like to explore. stuff about navigating emotions and relationships when existing is so suffocatingly uncomfortable. it’s not something i could center around Kirby himself, but i think it makes sense with a post character development meta knight.

they are very loved (omg oldee cameo???)

kirby was definitely very excited to have younger siblings after being used to being the youngest in the room for so long!! (with the like. one and only exception being gooey.) he’s super affectionate with both of them and wants to have a close relationship one day, but for now mira is pretty unappreciative of that fact lol. they don’t like being pestered for hugs

everyone else is okay tho

(i know that’s hard to read. oops. “obvious bite marks”. siblings being siblings.)

mira also has a very love/hate relationship with the egg kid, being so close in age they kinda Have to get along but in typical sibling nature they also fight a lot. sure it’s probably rough for a while but i think in the end they’d be good buddies. maybe not as close as Kirby and Bandee but still.

anyway i have a lot of thoughts and am very busy but. i’m really enjoying writing about all this lately it’s been fun ^^

i've noticed there's a slight problem on ao3 of people tagging undertale fanfics as deltarune when there's. literally no deltarune aspects. or only a couple here and there. i feel like that should probably be reserved for undertale fanfics that prominently feature deltarune characters/are a full-on crossover-

[anxiously-sidequesting]

every day i regret being a balance main because why do I have to wear this ugly shade of brown. with like. orange and pink.

blah blah stitching but white and red are the school colors. what is this

if necromancy is most hated by ambrose, sorcery is most hated by the shopkeepers i tell you

THIS IS SO INCHRESTING because in my playthrough experience in terms of balance colors it's either the pretty maroon/crimson/gold palette, the orange/brown/sand/pale palette, or like what this ask just said and it looks like your sorcerer lost a paintball fight

the easiest solution to this. since balance is supposed to be all of the schools, make it all of the colors. all balance wizards ✨🌈 G R A D I E N T /j

idk what to do with my next haircut :(((

[bonestrouslingbones]

btw if you ever wanna really look at the beauty of color theory & the importance of context in colors i really like how edge's armor communicates "black" pretty well imo and fluff's jacket communicates "purple" when this is the difference between both colors
