The second of my bonus gems; Confusionite! They are mostly a gem version of my non fandom character Hitchcock, lol.
Confusionite is the only one of their kind, being an experimental gem crafted by Blue Diamond. Confusionite has future vision, like Sapphires. But something…. Off happened.
No one’s sure what’s wrong in Confusionite. Their gemstone, hole, coding- everything says they are an average gem. But, they are…. off. Not fully there.
It could be explained with the power of their future vision, being stronger than even Garnet’s. They foresee any path the future may hold, and are not bound by perceptions towards those who they are predicting for or probability. So, Confusionite’s predictions almost always happen. Even if they do not, hints and echoes of what they foresaw are left behind. Their predictions tend to be vague as well, cryptic and riddle-y.
Confusionite is a very free willed gem, not conforming to the Diamond’s rule and instead being a rouge gem and predicting when they feel like it to those who visit them. The only reasons the Diamonds don’t shatter them when they defy their order is their vision is too powerful to waste.
In era three, they move to Earth and enjoy the spontaneous nature of the planet, and only look to the future if absolutely necessary now.
Just thought I'd say for everyone since someone asked privately- Unless I specifically say in the description the gem is one of a kind or something like that (ex- Brimstone, Skull Star); please feel free to make your own versions of any gems I design! Just please be sure to credit me for the original concept n stuff. And if you wanna make fan fusions or fan art, feel free to submit em to me!
A small sketch to test out a concept.
Hitchcock has a small.... issue with blood. He's not.... scared of it, necessarily. It’s just.... any time he sees it-
Their screams fill the air. (Who's? And why-) His troops beg for mercy. (His? He's never.... Has he? A long forgotten mission maybe?) Ubris shows no mercy (Ubris? He's never liked Ubris. He never could place why. Well-) Ubris's face shows no emotion. (Sometimes something pricks at his mind.) Their blood colors Ubris's cloak a different color. (This very scene sometimes.) Please please please just let it stop- (He never remembers that the memory passed by until it passes again) Ubris coldly tells Hitchcock it's over (What's over? What is he forgetting?) So long as he never tries this again- (Tries what? What had he done?) He could live. (Why is he crying- living is good!)
The blood is dry and caked into him by the time he forgets. Did he spill food coloring? Odd. He doesn't remember. He should clean up.
Casual draw of a concept I’ve had since steven universe future came out and just never had the wherewithal to do anything with.
The concept is simple: a resort for fusions. Once permanent and mixed gem fusion became legal, a few fusions who had hidden who they were wanted a place where they could relax. They earned a vacation from looking over their shoulder constantly. A resort was born, built out of an abandoned Blue Diiamond entertainment planet. It’s incredibly beautiful, fancy, and perfect for the couple looking to get away from the memory of the pressures of era 1 and 2.
Within the resort, there are two single gems. Snakeskin Agate and “Blackjack” Pearl. Snakeskin despises that the resort she used to work so hard at is a hub for these disgusting displays now. She hates era three, hates all these new rules, and hates Steven most of all. Snakeskin threatened her Pearl, Blackjack, into staying with her at the resort. She has a plan. A devious (but not terribly smart) plan.
Her idea is to have her Pearl scope out the fusions that come to this resort, force the weak ones into a fusion, and gain power. Slowly gaining enough power with enough gems to overthrow this silly new empire. And put things the way they should be. Orderly, and right.
Blackjack doesn’t necessarily like this plan. She loves the concept of era three and desperately wants to be free from her abusive owner .She was dragging her feet on the plan, delaying it the best she could.
Until Steven Universe himself decides to check out this resort.
Man it’s been a while since I posted any sanders sides stuff, huh?
So I had this dream the other night, pretty much right after Crofters part 2 aired. The dream was brief, but the concept was there.
Roman had ducked out (quack), leaving Thomas unable to summon any of the normal sides. It was his creativity that caused him to put a face to aspects of his personality, after all. He tried Roman first, then Logan, then Patton, then Virgil, even Janus, until finally he tried Remus.
Remus was the only one summonable. He explained it was likely Roman ducked out, And Thomas needed a game plan. Lest he loose his spark all to create together and loose Remus too.
Remus had a solution, but it might not be favorable in Thomas’s eyes. In order to help Thomas create a game plan, he needed his aspects. The only way to get his aspects was for Remus to try his hand at creating them. They would be different, Remus warned, Not the sides Thomas was used to. They would be how Remus saw the different aspects of Thomas. Hidden parts of those aspects that Thomas shoved away.
Thomas agreed. That was when the dream ended, but I found myself wanting to concept these Remus versions of the sides.
Grey is Remus;s vision of Morality, very different from the lovely Patton we know and love. He’s got a more, well, grey view on morality. That not all decisions have a black and white, right and wrong answer. That there is little purpose to try being good in a world full of such terrible negativity and badness. But, that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t try anyway. Because, at his core, Thomas is a good person. Resulting in Grey wanting to try anyway. Even if he doesn’t see much reason in it.
I’ll do more of these versions of the sides if people are interested!
A few design notes:
Grey is not wearing his jacket normally. Rather, it is draped over his shoulders.
I gave Grey a black and white color scheme to symbolize the generalized idea of a black and white mindset. And gave him the name of Grey to symbolize his thoughts on all that.
Grey has a friendship bracelet on his right wrist, decked in the colors of the other sides. He still loves them all, a softy at heart. Despite the melancholy attitude.
Grey’s necklace is his emblem. A yin/yang skull.
He does not wear the sunglasses on his head as actual eye protection ever. They’re just fashionable.
He almost always has a lollipop of various flavors. It generally changes depending upon his mood. He also has a stash of other candy in his coat pockets.
It’s not shown here, but he has a small gap between his two front teeth!
I’m A Shadow Of Myself
This sickness I'm afflicted with Has got my brain decaying
I know my God has damned me. My fate remains unmolded! Guess it runs in the family. My sense of self; corroded!
My blackened blood is boilin', I feel my fear no more. The scent of dead flesh spoilin', Have I become a corpse? - Now, you know the price, Gotta pay it now! If you have a life, Time to lay it down! Heed not the voice of reason, It only tells you lies! Obey your sins and demons Then see through evil's eyes!
I think Hitchcock might have some rebellion in his past too.... :3c
AAAA my babyyyyy <3!! I love this so much thank you!!
Flat color commission for @yaboy-robin !! Thank you!
Think And You’ll Miss It
Some require an explanation for why we make the things we make. Why rules must break, and for whose sake!
Of course you got the answers! Cause you ain't the one that's in my position.
I decided to update the refs for some of my oldest characters since the art on their refs was hella old
A couple more students for my hybrid high idea. I have some staff sketched but I wanna sketch one more and line and color em before I post em.
Bartholomew “Barbie” Harbor is a goblin/kenku hybrid upperclassman. He has always been very short, only ending up child sized. He gets in trouble a lot due to his temper and habit of threatening those who pose a danger to his boyfriend. Due to this, he doesn’t really have any friends other than his boyfriend. Barbie was adopted as a baby by two human lesbians and knows nothing about his biological parents.
Sebastian Jerimiah Corrashell is a bullywug/siren hybrid upperclassman. Sebastian is one of the most popular students in school. Everyone loves him. He’s one of the lead members of the school choir, is a member of the honor society, and has a large group of friends. None, however, are closer than his boyfriend Barbie. Barbie and Sebastian are childhood friends, living next door to each other since before they can remember. They promised when they were young that they’d stick together and marry one day no matter what, and it seems that promise will stick. Sebastian cannot vocalize in english, and only croaks. Instead. he uses a tablet to read out things he types for others (since he can’t really sign with his claws either).
Both Sebastian and Barbie are cis males and use he/him pronouns
☀️👄👁
I’ll be honest I’m not 100% happy with this.
Any gem with the Rose moniker was to be sealed away pending investigation. Many were shattered. Many were bubbled away and forgotten.
Many, like Desert Rose, fled to Earth.
She held out, until the final day, that Homeworld would forgive her and her fellow Roses for the crime of one defective Rose.
She spends her days luring other corrupted gems to her with her fire lure, and fusing with them. At least temporarily.
Hitchcock Alcock Clockmaker
Species: Arglywydd Amser
Gender: Demimale (They/He)
Sexuality: Panromantic Pansexual
Height: 6ft
Voice Claim: ?
At the beginning of everything, there were but deities arranging everything for the coming mortals. Boss, the deity of time, found that the job of making sure time stayed linear within their own timelines a terribly overwhelming task. In order to help, Boss experimented with creating a helper species. Agents who could correct anything that needed fixing while Boss kept an eye on time itself.
The first creation, after many a test, was Hitchcock.
Hitchcock has been around since before almost any other being. They have seen societies rise and fall, the creation of new creatures and their extinction, and have gained the admiration and praise of every other arglwydd amser in existence - despite none knowing their true history.
Being the first creation of Boss, at the time still going by Ubris, made for Hitchcock to see the deity do some.... terrible things. Things that didn't need to be done in the name of a fate that wasn't necessary. Terrible things to Boss's own creations, even letting Hitchcock's fellow arglwydd amsers die - forever lost to time. It didn't help that Hitchcock saw that seeing into time as a burden to many of the others arglwydd amsers, and many wished they weren't created as this.
Hitchcock couldn't take it and created a rebellion, gathering the few arglwydd amsers who were around at the time in his ranks. They planned to confront Ubris, and even end the deity if Ubris wouldn't listen to reason.
They planned and trained and were cocky. They weren't ready. All of the arglwydd amsers were slaughtered by Ubris..... Except Hitchcock.
Ubris didn't want to kill the first creation Ubris ever made. Ubris promised to let Hitchcock live. So long as Hitchcock never tried anything like this again. And never told any future arglwydd amsers what happened. The event would become a mere myth. Hitchcock, fearful for their life and horrified at seeing this all.... Accepted.
Hitchcock grew bitter, watching Ubris, now called Boss, create overly loyal arglwydd amsers. Watched Boss try to give the new arglwydd amsers freedoms that the early ones didn't have. Hitchcock took that bitterness and created a cafe. A restaurant within the time stream (what arglwydd amsers use to travel throughout time) that could be a sanctuary for the arglwydd amsers. A place for them to relax, vent, and socialize. Hitchcock couldn't rebel anymore, but they could help their fellow arglwydd amsers the best they could.
It helped that, over time, being alive so long gave Hitchcock an ability no other arglwydd amser had. See, any arglwydd amser can foresee into timelines. But, this power is limited. They cannot see events they are involved in, and are more likely to see events that are more likely to happen. Hitchcock, however, can see it all. They create predictions that, even if they do not come true, still have the echos and impressions of what could have been around. Because of this, many come to Hitchcock's bar in order to gain insight into their own future. As, it's not something they can see themselves. Hitchcock is a bit tired of having to do this, but is oblivious to it.
In fact, Hitchcock is oblivious to a lot of things now a days. Being around so long has deteriorated his mind. And, Hitchcock isn't really.... all there anymore. He's chipper, upbeat, friendly. If he does remember what happened during the rebellion, which is rare and actually brings out the old Hitchcock, he forgets it very quickly and goes back to being kind old Hitchcock. Hitchcock can be serious and comforting to those who are down, offering a sympathetic ear. But, it doesn't hurt his heart as it did when the rebellion was reliably in his mind.
A few tidbits:
Hitchcock's eyes glow when they are predicting something.
Their hair used to be red.
Like all Arglwydd Amsers, Hitchcock is intersex
Gwendolyn hangs out at Hitchcock's diner a lot. They consider each other great friends. Gwendolyn is one of the few who doesn't ask Hitchcock to predict for him
Hitchcock's predictions tend to be vague
Hitchcock has a thing about blood. It isn't a phobia necessarily. But, looking at it.... Reminds him of something.
Only Boss and Gwendolyn know of Hitchcock's rebellious past. Gwendolyn found out on accident, and feels terrible that the Hitchcock that rebelled is lost to madness. And Boss.... Boss isn't allowed in the bar. Hitchcock gets very upset when he sees Boss. Though, he can never explain why, forgetting his anger very quickly.
Hitchcock is not exempt from the rule of not foreseeing events that involve himself. However, he doesn't really leave his bar very often, living in the upstairs part of the bar. If he were to meet someone fate wanted him to be with.... He wouldn't be able to see into that person's future. Which would fascinate him to no end, cause he's used to seeing the future.
Hitchcock really likes milkshakes, It's common for him to offer guests a milkshake if they're down.
“Uh…. hi?”
quiet drawing of an au I’ve been idly thinking about. Basically Garnet and Spinel swap places. Ruby and Sapphire become abandoned by Pink Diamond and Spinel becomes part of a perma fusion on Earth. There are some other swaps obviously but just for fun lol. Probably not gonna do anything else for this au lol.
more students for the school Percy and Turnip go to
Cyraeni is half naga half mermaid. They got more of their mermaid parent’s lower half muscles, meant for swimming and not movement on the ground. They also got a recessive deep sea mermaid trait, and were born blind. Cyraeni is a big teddy bear once you get to know them. Super kind and gentle to everyone. They are the star of the school’s non-competitive swim team.
Typically, the school would provide an aide for Cyraeni to get around with. However, Cyraeni’s tail has poisonous spikes and a poisonous stinger at the tip. Making Dottingale here the only one willing to cart Cyraeni around since she is immune to the poisons.
Dottingale is half cartoon character and half banshee. Her cartoon heritage makes them two dimensional- flat as paper. They can slip through the thinnest gaps and often gets things lost between walls for teachers. She also does not use her legs to walk. Instead, they sort of “slides” along the floor as if they were floating. But, her feet ae touching the ground. Dottingale can possess electronics at will, and will do so to get out of lectures to stop banshee shrieking at those who make fun of Cyraeni’s disabilities. Dottingale is autistic and has problems expressing herself. Dottingale prefers to eat with their stomach mouth and talk with their upper mouth.
These two are a couple, but never kiss in public.
Cyraeni is gender fluid and uses they/them pronouns and Dottingale is agender and has no preferences for pronouns. Most people use she or they for ol Dottie though.
I had this dream that actually gave me a really good concept for new characters
Percival “Percy” Peridot Hudson is your average human. The only child of a divorced mother, Percy is a smart child who has buried himself in his studies ever since his parent’s divorce at a young age. He pushes everyone away, and has very few friends. The friends he does have, aren’t terribly close to him either.
This changes when his mother very suddenly remarries a mysterious bachelor and they must move to a new neighborhood.
Percy is yanked from his comfortable, mundane life in the suburbs and placed into a new school. A school that only has hybrids. Half humans, half elves, half fae, etcetera. Many mixed fantasy races roam this school. And Percy just became the first human in the school’s history.
Percy must go through his high school years in this very odd school, having to unlearn stereotypes and stigmas humans have about various species.
He makes actually close friends during this time. One of which is the half swamp fae, half vampire Turnip Foxglove Daisymount. He teaches Percy to relax and let go of his need to be perfect at everything. Percy teaches Turnip that normal is okay sometimes.
Percy is a trans male who uses he/him pronouns and Turnip is a demiboy who uses he/they pronouns.

Color Change Zultanite is a rouge gem, wanted with plenty of bounties on her head. She created a formula to change the natural colors of a gem, so gems born with the wrong colors could be fixed and put to work. However, Zultanite wanted to play with this power she created. She changed the colors of those who wronged her, and now hides away. Looking to punish those who she thinks have done wrong by making them her test subjects.
Rumor has it she was her own first test subject. Everyone knows she isn’t actually a Zultanite. But what gem she was born as is forgotten.

Medusa Quartz did not even hear the call to retreat Earth.... And now she’s lost at sea. Simply searching. For what no one’s sure. But she’s dragged quite a few ships to their doom in the watery deeps.
Here she is without her water bubble:
Gwendolyn jumped as the front door to the home he was staying at slammed open. He sat up from where he sat, placing his propped up feet back onto the floor. "Illy?" He stood and approached the woman he'd come to know as a friend who had somehow found where he was staying. "What are you doing here?"
Illendra stood in the doorway, dripping wet from the rain outside. She glared up from under her wet bangs and spoke clearly. "How do I die?" Her voice was firm, but shaky. And her eyes, dark with hate and anger. Wet with something other than the rain.
Gwendolyn drooped at the question and extended his arms to Illendra, trying to comfort her. "Illy. You know I can't-"
"Don't give me that shit, Rolfe!" Illendra stepped inside, pointing an accusatory finger at Gwendolyn. "I know you know and, damnit, you're the only one I can trust to tell me!" She motioned angrily, "Just- be the rebel you say you are and fucking tell me! I can't do this if- If I don't- If I don't know what he-" Illendra looked away and hugged herself.
Gwendolyn sighed and took off his coat, placing it over her shoulders gently. "Let's get you dried off, yeah? We can talk about this later, okay?"
"No!" Illendra shook off his coat, "I'm tired of all this! I'm tired of not knowing, of you looking at me with that pitying fucking look in you eyes-" Gwendolyn flicked his eyes away sheepishly at the point, knowing he'd been doing that. "I'm tired of- of Boss and this stupid fucking fate, and the stupid fucking curse bitch and- and-" Illendra buried a hand in her hair roughly, tears spilling freely at this point.
Gwendolyn blinked a few times, before sighing deeply and looking behind himself a moment in thinking before looking back to Illendra. "You know if I tell you, you can't go back to not knowing."
"You think I don't know that, Gwen?!" Illendra's voice cracked, sniffing angrily and wiping her eyes roughly. "I just.... Wouldn't you have wanted to know?" She looked away, hugging herself, "Before you made your own mistake? Left for your own fate?"
Gwendolyn looked to the floor, distantly. Thousands of screams and the terrible sirens rang somewhere in his mind. He bent down and picked up his coat, "You're impaled," Illendra startled at him actually saying something, instead of saying sorry and moving her along. He began to fold the coat absently, not looking at her, "In your abdomen. Right above your belly button. Your lung gets pierced and the sword exits to the right of your spine. You go into shock pretty much immediately, after he removes the blade. So you don't feel much. You bleed out, I think."
Illendra blinked a few times as Gwendolyn talked, having turned away from her and hung his coat over the arm of his coach as he spoke. He swallowed thickly and leaned on the coach, head hung as he took off his hat and put it on his chest in a mourning method. "I- .... You're not alone. As you die. There is someone there. I cannot say who, but it is not him. He flees after you fall. A small comfort, I know but...." He choked on what he could say after that.
Illendra sniffed and clutched at her stomach, gripping her shirt fabric there roughly. She smiled, however, tears flowing freely, "Thank you, Gwen."
"Sure," Gwendolyn's own voice cracked dryly, trying to ignore the future gurgling of pain and fear ringing in his ears. Knowing it was him who had to hold her as she died. Comfort her and tell her that it was okay. He didn't know if she would realize it was him. And she didn't need to know it was him. But... She didn't deserve to die alone. He knew he'd go there as soon as he knew. He knew he'd want the same. And so he'd give the same. For her. Because he-
"I'm sorry I asked you do that-" Illendra looked away a moment, sniffing, "I just-"
"It's fine," Gwendolyn pretended he wasn't crying and ran a hand through his hair. "You want something to drink? And a towel? You're dripping all over my carpet."
Illendra looked down before laughing bitterly, "Sorry. Sure. Thanks."
Gwendolyn nodded and went to the kitchen. Leaning against the wall next to the doorway after he finally entered it and covering his mouth. So he could finally sob openly.

Do not stare upon Spider Web Septarians too long. If they decide you have done wrong-
You will be turned into but a statue for the Diamonds to decorate with.
Maybe a Painite?
Painites create artificial form enhancers specifically for Pearls. Their fans, wands, any artificial fabric they might wear, etc.
This one, however....
Something happened to her-....
Pietersite
🤡
I think they’d be enforcers but for the entertainment of others. Like chasing after rebels/off colors in silly ways and poofing them with a pun. They usually do shows in colosseums with captured gems who can’t escape.
Another gem for my oc au; Asterism! One of the off colors.
Asterism technically has nothing wrong with her. She is simply fulfilling her purpose being with the off colors. Pink Diamond originally crafted Asterisms to be helpful…. For rebels. Hear her out! The original concept was for Asterisms to “escort” rebels and off colors that were considered “dangerous” or not worth the trouble of chasing after to a non homeworld controlled planet to live out their days. This way, there would be minimum harm to Homeworld, and Homeworld wouldn’t have to exert recourses on just one or two errant gems. They were kept in service by Blue Diamond, but are very few and far between these days.
Asterism is supposed to escort the off color group off planet, while keeping away from guards. Most guards don’t listen to Asterisms and just attempt to shatter the gems they’re escorting. They were taking a break to rest, when Lars and Steven came upon their hideout.
Asterism herself is a bit ditzy and does not know how to stop talking. She is loyal to a fault, and has no idea she could be free if she just tried. Plenty of off colors have tried to get this well meaning gem to think for herself, but she’s never followed them. Lars is the first one she follows, inspired by his sacrifice to learn more about what more she could do for her duty. And, eventually, Lars and the other off colors help her figure out that she can do what she wants. It doesn’t matter what anyone thinks..
Another gem for my personal relaxing oc au where I replace all the gems (minus the diamonds and steven and rose) with gem ocs of mine.
This is Brimstone! The right hand of Yellow Diamond.
Brimstone is the sole survivor and emergent gem of a disastrous first colony attempt by Yellow Diamond. The colony was plagued by hostile/powerful organics, permafrost in the ground (which would cause erasures in an emerging gem’s coding if they were infected while they were incubating), and it was unable to support the pressure upon it. The colony literally collapsed in on itself. This caused the loss of all files on how to make Brimstones. Yellow was devastated by this embarrassing loss, caused by her bullheadedness and rush to complete her first colony in her eyes. So, she was truly thrilled to see that but one Brimstone emerged and survived the collapse. Even if the Brimstone was infected by permafrost and lost a few abilities she wanted Brimstones to have due to it, Yellow quickly took Brimstone in as her official right hand, protecting the one success from her first colony from the wrath of White Diamond.
Brimstone herself is very quiet, shy, and anxious. She frets for her poor Diamond’s health, and fears the “scary” rebels that have come to a head suddenly. She feared them during the war too. Feared that they would steal her away from her diamond. Her lower half is a broom so she can sweep as she walks.
The four Diamond right hands are a very close nit group, so Brimstone is close with Dolomite - something very few gems can say. She finds Steven terrifying at first, when they think he is Rose. She hides behind Yellow’s leg the best she can while taking notes of the trial. When they think he’s Pink, she is polite and doesn’t talk to him much. Asking to be excused from his next “game” a few times. And when they finally realize he’s his own person, Brimstone is kind and more open to him.
Getting my wisdom teeth out today! (I scheduled this yesterday for the exact time of my appointment haha) Wish me luck!
another gem from my oc au that I’ve been sitting on for a bit. In this au, mixed gem fusions are legal. Dolomite uses she/they pronouns.
This is Dolomite. One of the oldest gems in existence. Older than even Yellow and Blue Diamond. And one of the most mysterious. No one knows what their components are (although the fact that her gems are upon her forehead and her upper right palm are known to a few). No one alive knows when, how, or why they formed. No one knows if her cane is summoned or built by some long shattered gem.
What is known, is that iths gem is one of, if not the highest ranked non diamond gem. They are the right hand to White Diamond, being her favorite gem. She knows secrets to gem kind only White is privy to. She keeps White’s schedules, her notes, her counts, attends appointments in her place, and anything else the Diamond orders of them. Often, they even come in the place of White Diamond and makes a ruling for her, knowing what their Diamond would like best.
They do own a Pearl, and find the Pearl beautiful. They gift her many treasures meant for war heroes and the like. Even gems trapped within objects for her to wear. Only the best for their Pearl.
Dolomite’s cane is always with them. They use it to assist their walking, as it seems they have a slight limp. The can can turn into a lightning shooting destabilizer at will.
Dolomite has never poofed in public. They have gotten hurt in attacks, of course. But they always manage to keep it together long enough to poof in private. Even one time going as far as to report to White Diamond while still having a spear impaled through their abdomen.
Dolomite is considered the most powerful non Diamond gem, and is highly respected and feared. Despite her being a fusion (mixed gem fusions are still treated not great in this au). Yellow Diamond thinks it’s ridiculous she has to report to a fusion of all things most of the time. Blue Diamond finds Dolomite charming, and thinks White keeps her for decoration. A walking, talking, very high rank decoration. But both know better than to insult them.
