moonyposting twice in a row cause iiiii didnt time this very well hahaa!! mr. invisible man, mr. cellophane

moonstone has a hard time keeping their physical form on the visible spectrum, so usually they depend on their mask and bells and extra layers a lot to be noticed. but thats not how he likes to be seen. so, practice is well underway on earth

#ocs #gif warning #su au #steven universe #no id #qamar #nat #do u love him idc because i do very much #ive been so worn out recently i was just glad to finish this today

moony centric post ! needed some design clarity

i wanted it to make more sense that for a longgg time they depend on being 110% covered up, bc their physical form beneath is invisible; the only part u can see is their gem. when they get scared or zone out they fade into thin air completely. plenty of measures have been taken to assure he stays on other gems' radar & its honestly killed his stealth, but that never really mattered in the current era.

p.s. this canon concept art for the moonstone we only saw in a corrupted form has always been my inspo..SHES SO CUTE

#ocs #qamar #su au #steven universe #im having way too much fun w his clownish drip rn #thx for enjoying su posting while it lasts im just cruisin on the fixation currents

I love unakite, I'm imagining her fusing to do something really stupid (like, open a jar or whatever), hyping herself up before working herself into a frenzy, and straight up spiraling and unfusing while accomplishing her task

SHES SO FUN u hit the nail on the head. worlds least stable yet most stable fusion.. she barely counts as a giant woman, shes got a napoleon complex. im afraid to even think what her gem weapon would be, some halfway point btwn a cat o nine tails and infinite knives? how are u gonna open the pickles w that babe

#ocs #su au #steven universe #asks #namesarehardforme #molly #nat #maybe im leaning too hard into her having a terrible attitude but no i dont think so. it makes sense #if i was a combination of an emotionally constipated low level manager & her most fucked up subordinate with zero self preservation #id probably forget how to do anything but act like a shithead and die too #she gets better but the way she starts is ROUGH

i forgot my dailies so heres some of the au redesigns ive been up to 🚶‍➡️🏃‍➡️🤸 return of the funnies, new and improved!! moonstone, plume agate & tigers eye!!!

lots more lore i never dropped + fusions below the cut- but this post will get long hahaa

making the post pretty for you :-) ok?

their rundown is that plume and tiger crash land on earth and team up with an already stranded moony, hoping to get back with an impressive enough report to save them from trouble. when this starts to seem less and less of a possibility, they have to face their feelings about staying on earth, and whether itd be worth it to take desperate measures just to return to a status quo they were never cut out for to begin with. theyre more or less minor villains of the week who have their own rich inner lives completely offscreen so i can claim theyre canon compliant.

moony- got retconned to be a bit of a fool jingling miserably across the court, while blue diamond pondered whether this was a good enough use for a former espionage class of gem. shes busy mostly crying about other things tho. and moonstone is too. on the first pity mission away from home they decide to sit pretty and stall until blue forgets to ask for updates, maybe forever.

plume- leader of a squadron of tigers eyes grunts (theyre a scout class, expendable and fast close range idiots without the benefit of tankiness). she's outwardly very tough on them but hides a lot of fondness for only them to see. she also hides an independent streak that fuels her history buff posturing, and is getting dangerously close to acting on her fantasy of becoming the next rose quartz.

tiger- the weak link of the squadron whos had her ass saved plenty of times by plume before. to prove shes not dead weight, she throws herself at every problem expecting to fail a few times and break a few limbs before succeeding. shes grown neurotic & wary of attention, and is liable to just go looney tunes at the slightest opportunity. if freedom calls she wont hesitate to scamper.

& hey! fusions as promised! helps to know what theyre working with dynamics-wise:

pietersite (piet)- shes very serene on the surface level while masked and doesnt speak, but underneath it kind of a terror...due to the constant dual internal monologue that gets broadcast telepathically from her out of sync brain...at least tiger doesnt mind it. theyre not very stable as a fusion due to an inherent mismatch in how their component gems communicate. it takes time before they get a handle on their combined strengths, so they dont form often.

unakite (una)- shes the worst and i love her, and she loves herself more (until she doesnt, at which point she combusts to avoid dealing with it, and both parties forget what happened). shes the manifestation of a long term work friendship & is therefore her own right hand man. her first inclination is to plot, then to destroy, then applaud herself for it. she has illusions of grandeur to become a permafusion due to her remarkable stability while formed, but has too much of a one track mind to last forever. still, shes around a lot when the situation calls for it.

chrysoprase (chryssie)- hes a delight but also sucks ass at being helpful in most situations that require more than chilling smiling and having fun. hes pretty stable but prone to long spells of isolation, and spends all his time on confusing hobbies that burn him out big time. plume finds them really frustrating and it takes her ages to stop wishing theyd just stay apart, after realizing their existence is like necessary therapy to the goobers involved.

p.s. all three gems use she/her initially as gems do, and plume continues to throughout. moony is very taken with human culture and later puts in a lot of effort to be like them, so he adopts their concept of gender and prefers he/they instead. tiger mirrors whatever she finds interesting and doesnt really care, so all her fusions default to the other party's preference

p.p.s, all the little refs in the corners of the fusion pics are outdated so pls ignore the discrepancies

i think ive said my piece for now.. if u made it this far, big thanks & feel free to take the mic, im trying to be less of a lore recluse !! this au does things to my brain.. id love to explain each of them and their little personal arcs in better detail soon, but plotty things can wait until i get the nerve to start doing comics again. CIAO!

#ocs #su au #steven universe #gem ocs #fusion design #molly #qamar #nat #overcoming my fear of posting lately. does anyone enjoy a lovingly crafted post #im so obsessed w this trio rn i figured itd be fun to just get completely sidetracked 100x over and think of them as anything i want #enjoy !!! ??
