So, one of the things I like A Lot in fiction is when I get to see a world map. Mostly for getting a better sense of the borders of fictional nations, I'm a bit of a nerd about that sort of thing.

Well, I got to the first episode of Steven Universe that gives us a map, excited to see where on earth the gems of Homeworld had marked as prime real estate for their terraforming efforts, and... uh...

... I was not expecting VASTLY CHANGED CONTINENTS!!! THAT'S AWESOME!!!!

#su #steven universe #Like... I LOVE IT #but if all these changes are because of damage done in Rose Quartz's rebellion #Then they aren't just an ancient long forgotten world building thing in the background of a completely contemporary modern setting #This kind of changes would've Seriously altered the course of human history!#And now i'm thinking about the fact that an earlier episode took place in a state called 'Keystone' and...#That wasn't just a funny 'we made a fictional us state' It's very likely that The whole US is Different!#And if you've read this far into my rambling tags and are familiar with su. you gotta tell me:#how much does most fanfic play into the alt history aspect of su? I gotta know #I can't be the only one whose as excited about this as I am
