I’d like to introduce the Wilted Rose AU! These are the main players in this au (plus a few more gems I haven’t gotten designs down for yet). More info under the cut!
Padparascha came out perfect. That is the main difference. Padparadscha came out perfect and was immediately brought before the three diamonds (Pink was elsewhere) to show her wisdom. After all, no Sapphire had been born perfect before.
There, she gave a vision that shook the diamonds to their core: Pink Diamond will rebel and bring about the end of gem culture as we know it. White Diamond immediately told Pink she would "test her patience". She was to wait, alone, until the Diamonds came and retrieved her.
After this, Pink Diamond was nothing more than a fairy tale to most gems. The only evidence she existed was a memorial garden in the very corner of a Blue Diamond galaxy.
Thousands of years later, Pink is found again by a Peridot conducting warp tests, and suddenly Pink has a group of friends willing to help her get back into society. And maybe even back at her fellow Diamonds.....
A few tid bits what changes there are to gems:
Padparascha is perfect, obviously.
Pink Pearl was released from White Diamond’s grasp and reset. She was given to Padparascha for warning the Diamonds of the rebellion. Padparascha kept her mostly the way she was. For her Diamond’s eventual return.
Peridot is still short as, due to the lack of a fourth diamond, there is still a lack of resources.
Crystal Gem Pearl is reset and given to Blue Diamond as a way to remember the littlest Diamond.
Sapphire comes out off color due to the persistent “ice” (it’s actually an unformed sapphire gem she formed around) stuck in her eye. But she can easily mask as non defective for “missions”, such as sneaking defects off the chopping block and getting them somewhere safe.
Amethyst is one of the few gems who hangs out around Sapphire, having still stayed in the ground too long. They fuse occasionally. There is no Garnet.
Spinel was in the ground when Pink was sent away. She was sent to manage the memorial garden as soon as she emerged. No friends for this Spinel....
Lapis Lazuli lost a lot of rank after her former best friend and love interest Aquamarine told the Dimaonds about a rule the Lazuli had broken. Lapis was stationed at the memorial garden, to forever be stuck watering plants instead of being free to terraform.
I miss this show sometimes
Y'know when stevonnie appears, my humanity restored.
