Long Time No See, Huh? The Submit Your Pearl Contest has Come Back Again! As Always, With New Pearl

long time no see, huh? the Submit Your Pearl Contest has come back again! as always, with new pearl colors for you to choose. as stated before, i’m gonna need in total 24 Pearls that will be featured in my upcoming Steven Universe fanfic called Nacreous Clouds. 8 have been choosen from the first batch, 7 from the second, 9 to go. here are some rules and info about the contest (there are even more rules to this one, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!):

✦ more than one kind of Pearl can be submitted, for example: two Burgundy Pearls. remember to follow the color palette, although some unique details like freckles or stripes are more than welcome. just don’t stray away from the main color.

✦ one person can submit in total 2 Pearls per batch. more than that will not be acceptable and I’ll have to disregard one or two Pearls of yours, which I really don’t want to do. give other people a chance to compete!

✦ you must submit a picture, along with a detailed description of your Pearl. tell me about their personality, their backstory, their goals, and what do they think about being held captive by Red Abalone (some Pearls actually don’t want to leave). however, don’t make the description too long to read: although I LOVE built up characters, only tell me what is necessary so I can work nicely with them. that aside, go nuts! a reference sheet will be needed for the winners.

✦ winners of previous batches can participate again, but can only submit one Pearl per batch. this is to open more slots to new faces!

✦ you can only use the colors presented here. people sent me pearls of other colors that weren’t in the first batch, but i liked some of them so much that i ended up accepting more than what was planned. this time, though, pearls of other colors will not be accepted to participate in the contest, sorry.

✦ only 5 pearls will be accepted this time around. i just love pearls too damn much and end up accepting more than what was planned, hence why i had to change the number of pearls in each batch.

✦ remember, Red Abalone is NOT very kind to the Pearls, and triggering themes like psychological abuse may be present within the story. only participate in this challenge if you agree to have your Pearlsona / Pearl oc AND yourself be exposed to such content. if I plan to do something with your Pearl, you will be notified (i will remain in touch with the winners through discord.)  but don’t worry, i don’t plan for the fic to have a sad ending!

that’s it for now. if you’ve got any questions, ask away. i look forward to seeing your precious Pearls once again.

PS. here’s the link for submitting if anyone is having trouble.
