AAAAA LOOK WHO I GOT TODAY!

"Oh- I don't think my name is important to my day to day life. People come and go from me so often that it's unreasonable to give them my actual name. You can just call me the Gardner."

Meet the lovely "Gardner" - my idea for a purely hypothetical partner for both Peach and Grey from the lovely @prof-peach. More about them under the cut!

Gardner came upon the island very suddenly. One day they were not there and the next... They had situated themselves within the greenhouse, pulling weeds with a hum in their throat.

Peach and Grey paid them no mind at first. No questions of where they were from or what they wanted of this island. But, one day they received news of the guardian pokemon from the restricted north end spotting the seemingly very smart individual having a bloody picnic on the very border of the land, with a very surly Sylveon on the other side joining them - all at ass o'clock in the morning.

Peach confronted Gardner the next morning and started asking questions. Mostly what the hell they were thinking and how they had gotten the Sylveon to eat with them when that Sylveon had been there for literal years with human blood on its muzzle and a dead, violent stare at any who passed it. Who the hell were they?

Gardner's answer?

They weren't anyone special- just someone who found themselves peckish on a insomnia induced walk and found themselves entertaining a "very kind" and "pleasant" Sylveon. They really had no idea they weren't supposed to be there until a guard pokemon tried to usher them away.

Peach and Grey kept an eye on Gardner after this and learned more of the odd fellow.

Their past is a mystery. They wave off any questions of who they were before this, and don't answer where they're from. If the accent is anything to go off of, they at least grew up in Galar. They loved to garden, seeing Peach every day in the greenhouse. They see Grey most often in the breeding center, a seeming expert on the craft of raising and caring for eggs, carrying pokemon, and reering any abandoned young. They learned of their partner pokemon; the dear elderly November the Roselia, the freshly hatched Peep the Hoothoot/Oricorio hybrid with no wings and only one leg, the aptly named "Surprise" - a stubborn unknown egg they always have in their overalls that has refused to hatch for a while now, and the mentions of another partner the duo know nothing of- but that is missed dearly.

Grey was the first to get closest to Gardner, wanting to make sure the fellow was legit at first but... They were so kind and lovely! Sure, they didn't talk of their past, but Peach didn't either at first. Maybe they had family issues as well. And, this island was open to anyone looking to escape from their lives. So long as they didn't cause trouble. The true terror in their eyes at the idea of returning to the mainland, and the voracity they defended the place during attacks with sealed it.

This "Gardner" was a friend.

A... friend who seemed to flirt without realizing they were flirting. A friend who wrote and passed letters to Grey when they were relaxing in the same room, and he wrote back. A friend who stayed up all hours to watch a sickly egg they weren't sure was going to make it. A friend who cried happy, blubbering tears seeing two pokemon find love. A friend who sang odd songs, and cooked terrible food at all hours of the night. Who straightened Grey's clothes with a passing comment that there was such an odd spot that looked a bit funky. Who made tea and awful snacks Grey ate anyway while they watched eggs. Who held his hand as they walked. Who pet his more vicious pokemon and became a staple to life.

Grey fell hard and fast for Gardner. They were just so... Lovely.

Peach was apprehensive but... Let Grey do as he pleased. Helped Grey pick out an outfit to ask the lovely Gardner out. Sat and listened as Grey gushed about the lovely night they'd had and how Gardner didn't even seem to know it was a date until Grey outright kissed Gardner's hand at the very end of the night.

Peach fell for Gardner when Gardner seemed to be sticking around more and more. Their knowledge of plants and grass pokemon was... attractive. And the "Secret notes" Gardner left to boost Peach's day were nice. How Peach learned of the horrific burn scar that covered most of their torso that they waved off after taking off their shirt to warm a cold pokemon. How they still pet Val... a bit apprehensively but kindly. How they could gush about Grey together, and plot ways to woo their man. Gardner seemed to hid a mischevious side that showed more when around Peach. How they watched Peach wrestle a protective Ursarang and offer a nice drink after. How she was slotted between the cuddling Gardner and Grey at night. How Gardner would try their best not to wake them when their insomnia kept them up. How they convinced the Sylveon they met all that time ago to return with them to the main island. How Grey lit up to talk about them. How they laughed and snorted and were just lovely and-

Oh.

Oh dear.

Peach was encouraged to pursue Gardner by an estatic Grey. They both had two hands to hold them with! Peach was, of course, stubborn and refused to do anything until the notes Gardner left turned into "secret admirer" notes. Then she had to confront the silly, sweet Gardner and be taken out on a nice moonlit walk.

The three are all very happy together.

They can never know Gardner was originally hired to bring Peach back to her family by any means necessary, or face more, worse consequences than the burn they endured. How they used to be a hired breeder for the family Peach never met, but their heart couldn't take the treatment the pokemon endured and they paid for it with this favor. How they didn't mean to fall for Grey and Peach, but they did. How it's never been an act, but that Sylveon incident was planned. How that's their Sylveon and always has been; that mysterious "other partner" and their first pokemon.

They can never know.

Asfgjllhgdss Red Diamond is there!! Thank you so much for drawing her I??? Ffhjklllgfd,,,,

Long time no art post! (I swear I’m still alive). To celebrate Gemsona-HQ’s six year anniversary, I opened up gemsona requests for the first time in years. I originally planned to only pick a few and do very basic doodles, but I got way too enthusiastic seeing everyone’s gemsona designs and, well, here we are. :’D Better late than never, I suppose! I also got really excited when I realized I could turn this into a gemsona rainbow.

If you’d like a full-sized version of your drawing, feel free to send me a message. (Please give me credit if you use the image as an icon / header / whatever. Thanks!)

Trying to write everyone’s url got messy, so owners are listed below in order:

A concept my boyfriend and I tossed back and forth a while ago that I suddenly remembered and felt like drawing; The Rogue Toad -Also known as The Red Rogue! We came up with him after tossing back and forth ideas for party members for a stealth-based Mario game.

This Toad, after a youth of servitude to the Princess, finally snapped and had enough of the mistreatment. He fled the castle, abandoning his post and turning to a life of crime.

The Red Rogue hates Peach with a passion and actually runs a halfway house for Toads that want to escape her terrible management style. The footstool punishments, the payment only in hugs and kisses, having your life risked for a princess who doesn't know how to defend herself, getting underestimated just because of their species - Toads that wanted to get away from it could go there. Most of them go back, merely using the house as a place they can relax and be themselves.

The Red Rogue is now the head of a criminal empire, pulling strings only a Toad could because no one expects much from them. He can go undercover as a normal Toad, no one noticing his distinguishing big eyebrows or shroom scar. He's even gone back to the castle, and been face to face with the Princess. Just goes to show she doesn't really notice them much if she doesn't realize his features.

His scar is from when he got royal footstool duty during the princess's "that time of the month"..... Her monthly foot fungus. What? What did you think it was? She lives around mushrooms constantly, of course she gets monthly fungus. The spot got infected very badly and part of his shroom had to be cut out. Leaving the scar.

New our life mc; Jasper (he/they/it!) He was a pen pal to Cove from Nevada through the course of their life and eventually gets with Cove in adulthood :^) He's an artist but mainly does taxidermy for money!

a peridot sketch I’m not gonna use for anything cause the idea was scrapped but I liked too much to not post.

THEY SKINNED MY CHILD FOR PROFIT!

A stupid scene I couldn’t stop thinking about. Have a sketch comic of it.

How about Fluorite

Instead of a Pearl or a Spinel, I went with a Spinel and Pearl fusion! This is Butterfly Jasper, the fusion of a yellowish green spinel and a blue pearl.

New gem for my replace all canon gems with ocs au! Original design by @pocket-gems ; with a few tweaks from me!

This is Angelite, the manager of Pink Diamond’s human zoo. The zoo, within this au, is a bit of an oddity. All the gems housed within are experimental gem types that Pink Diamond herself concepted. She only ever got to see one of them emerge before she was “shattered”. These gems teeter an odd line;  technically are under Blue Diamond, but no Diamond wishes to claim them since they’re Pink’s.

Angelite is not one of these gems.

Angelite was born with a permafrost defect, a defect which can erase things that their gem type would usually have. Whether it be their standard form being totally different from what they would normally have. missing abilities that they would normally have (as seen with Brimstone), having a different coloration than normal, or loosing their base coding entirely so they’re barren like Amethyst. This defect cannot erase standard abilities like fusing or the like however. Most permafrost gems are tested for usefulness before being judged for shattering. Angelite was born lucky, simply being a different color than the average Angelite. She was quickly put to work.

Angelites usually work under Blue Diamond to poison and kill any organic matter they touch. This Angelite quickly rose through the ranks, showing initiative in her duties - and going above and beyond. Even going as far as to poison entire planets herself. 

Angelite grabbed the attention of Blue Diamond with her hard work. She became part of Blue’s personal court. Angelite dreamed of more, maybe even finding a place in the coveted open spot of Blue Diamond’s right hand....

And then Pink was shattered.

Blue Diamond quickly scooped up the gem who Pink Diamond created that actually met her, Bitch Crystal, for her right hand spot. A gem who actually knew her, who carried a piece of Pink and was created by Pink was just what she needed in that time. And, Blue shoved Angelite to the side to watch over the Pink Diamond zoo, the humans, and the other Pink Diamond gems.

Angelite grew bitter and angry. In her eyes, everything she was working for was stolen by this... this.... joke of a gem! She hates Bitch Crystal (not that he makes it hard to hate him), these stupid Pink Diamond gems, this stupid zoo, and longs for the days she’s lost. She’d do anything to win favor with the Diamonds again. Even do this stupid job she is above, or try to woo Bitch Crystal to make a legal mixed gem fusion and become Blue Diamond’s right hand like she always dreamed that way.

How would they have found out if none of them knew? I'm MEGA curious

Someone figures it out, but it's not one of the cgs.

That's all I'll say until I design who reveals it. >:3c
