Smoky Quartz - Blog Posts

(ooc) post

I decided to expand upon an AU @fflaminlo made about Sunstone, Rainbow 2.0, and smoky Quartz being stevens parents. (Please check out their art for it, it explains it a lot better.)

So my idea is that the three of them were created to be special homeworld experiments to see if they could create a strong singular gem person with multiple gemstones. Only these three were successfully created.  Sunstone was created to be part of blue diamonds court. Once Blue became displeased with sunstone and threatened to lock her away and rejuvenate her, sunstone ran away to earth.

It was decided that Rainbow 2.0 should go to pink diamond, cause they thought she deserved something special. Rainbow 2.0 replaces pink Pearl when pink Pearl is broken.

Smoky Quartz was the result of the diamonds trying to see if one could be created on earth. They considered them a failure when they didn’t come out. But they did pop out eventually, just later and smaller than they were supposed to.

Unlike the cannon crystal gems, these three hang out a lot more before he got his powers. When he did get his powers and he could control them properly, they started letting him come on more missions, as long as they were safe for him. They always give him a goodbye hug if he has to stay behind.

They tell him more things and hide less. Though they still keep secrets and don’t tell him super serious or really bad stuff. Steven still learns that rose was pink diamond the same way, though.

When they find out about rose being pink, smoky and rainbow react similarly to how amethyst and Pearl did. Sunstone, on the other hand, runs off to the fountain in a rage. Instead of a snow storm, sunstone is sitting with her feet in the water, her rage causing it to bubble. Rainbow and Steven go to calm her down and bring her home. 

While they are doing that, smoky is sulking in stevens bed. Once rainbow, steven, and sunstone come back, they all work together to cheer smoky up.  bismuth comes back after the four of them have a talk about rose being pink. They decide that she has the right to know. All four of them talk her about it.

The way steven gets cat Steven is similar, but instead of steven and sunstones adventure being about future vision, it’s about sunstone wanting to be better, for herself, for rainbow and smoky, and especially for Steven. Steven comforts her by saying that changing is fine, but she shouldn’t push and/or force herself to be how she isn’t.  (@fflaminlo​, if you see this tell me what you think. If you want to, that is.)
