Summary
Steven Quartz Universe goes to trial on Homeworld for the murder of Pink Diamond. Sure, he may be in deep trouble, but that’s nothing new. Oh, and he also manages to save his treasonous lawyer before the Diamonds can do her any harm. Heavily canon-divergent.

Summary
Translucent: allowing light, but not detailed shapes, to pass through; semitransparent.
In his world, Steven Universe is a constant ray of sunshine, never letting anyone know how hurt he is and suffering the consequences of untreated trauma.
In this world, he's a normal teenager with a normal teenager's capacity for emotions. He's more open about his emotions to the gems, more open about how tiring it is to have your life constantly at risk.
In this world, it's the little changes that have massive impacts.

Summary
Garnet, Pearl, Amethyst, Greg, Yellow, and Blue—they've all lost someone. Lovers and daughters and friends and family, and that's not a wound you easily come back from.
If at all.
But this isn't an 'if at all' kind of story.It's a story about a sickly, little kid named Steven and his ever-growing surrogate family.
It's a story about the kind of boy who'd extend a flower and a smile to a sad stranger he meets at a cemetery. Human AU.

Summary
Steven's two guards were frozen with shock. Steven said, trying to think like Garnet, "Have you told anyone else about this? Who else knows?"
The Agate said, eyes widening, "Only my Pearl, a Peridot, and myself, my Diamond. And the Pearl can be shattered."
"That won't be necessary," Steven said quickly. "Just don't tell anyone else, okay? The Diamonds have, um. Extended their trip. So they'll be gone a while longer." He bit his lip. "We'll just have to make sure we find them." Soon. He hoped.
"Understood. And until then... I, and all of Homeworld's Empire, am at your service. Pink Diamond, we await your commands."
(Or: White Diamond hasn't been on Homeworld for millennia; Blue and Yellow Diamond just disappeared along with her. Naturally, command of the Empire falls to Pink Diamond.
Or rather, it falls to Steven.)

Bookmark Notes:
this is SOO good. Gem politics and power struggles are so interesting to read about and the great worldbuilding supports the tension perfectly! All the spying, the blackmailing and control of information is made more immersive with the new and different homeworld gems and their unique personalities and powers, all written to accurately fit into su lore about gem kind and their world's rules perfectly. The different personalities and factions at play are great to read about.
What's more is that steven, a human kid, being in the middle of this doesnt feel jarring at all. He still acts in character but his sensibilities about being kind and compassionate dont seem silly because this fic understands what the core of his ideals are perfectly. He is horrified by the atroticites of homeworld gems but is able to see what it stems from and act accordingly while still being somewhat naive but that is treated with care, not ridicule which is nice. And he still plays a big role and has a clear influence that is felt. He fits into things naturally as just another faction in this struggle to rule and exist like every other character and I love that balancing act so much. The way every character is given grace makes things so interesting and multifaceted.
There was clearly a big mystery and greater plot brewing in this fic that was cut short cause it was discontinued which is too bad but what is there makes me wonder... All the original ideas for worldbuilding and gem lore were so cool to read about and the growing mystery surrounding the bigger picture surely wouldve been something to behold if it had come to fruitation. I am very gratefull for what was written as it is though. Great fic for sure!

Summary
Professionals is a series that follows Peridot and the Crystal Gems B-Team as they try to keep Little Homeworld running while dealing with their personal problems and the rocky Era 3 transition. If you wish that Steven Universe Future were a Peridot spinoff instead of Steven-focused, give it a read.
Peridot is Chief Technician, and is living in a "secret" lair under the greenhouse, balancing her official duties with her sometimes disastrous personal projects and obsessions.
Lapis Lazuli is living with Peridot. She spends most of her time making meep morps or flying, and is slowly recovering from her past trauma.
Bismuth is Chief Builder, and her forge is where everyone likes to go for gossip or advice.
Blue Zircon settled on Earth to help out with the Era 3 reforms. Perpetually busy and stressed, she is now close friends with Peridot, which has not helped her productivity.
Professionals is the primary story. The rest are side stories which use the same headcanons but do not require reading the main story.

Summary
Blue meets Yellow shortly after her emergence, and quickly realizes she doesn't really want to leave her side. She falls in love without even realizing it, and Yellow's behaviour is only making it worse.
Story flows around all three Diamonds (as the story progresses - four), focusing mainly on Bellow relationship, but includes shipping of pearls :p. Also will contain the moment when Blue let her Pearl draw during trials ;)How exactly does the Diamond Authority look like from inside? What do characters feel? What makes White be so close to a psychopath? Which Diamond actually carries the weight of the whole gemkind on her shoulders?
Read to find out ;) -

Summary
‘You’re ridiculous, you know that?’
Lapis laughs from her balcony at Peridot who is still in her sundress with hair full of sea salt at 1 AM. She’s staring up at Lapis, listening to that laugh like it’s the greatest symphony Mozart ever wrote. There are crumpled roses in one hand and a crash helmet in the other. Her cheeks flush and there’s a sparkle that looks like love in her eyes.
She didn’t care if she was in over her head, or that she was just a loser; she wanted to be the loser who stole the beauty of Beach City High’s heart, even if it meant getting hers broken.
(AKA, the longest one-shot yall motha f*cker’s are ever gunna read)

literally the best one-shot I've ever come across. a masterpiece, like a teenage coming off age movie but it's actually done well. with memorable and unique scenes and it's honestly so sweet just kill.me rn

Summary
As an IT intern at Beach City Hospital, Peridot spends her time restarting computers and organizing files. Two months into her internship, her coworker Pearl introduces her to their new patient - Lapis Lazuli. She was kidnapped six months before and was found by police in a room full of mirrors. With no immediate family and no emergency contacts, Pearl asked Peridot to be Lapis' caretaker. After she agrees, Pearl tells her that Lapis is pregnant and heavily traumatized.
This fanfic is heavily inspired by "Things We Lost and Things We Gain" by teamchaosprez !! (steven universe fanfic in 2025???? crazy) It was written back in 2015 when Lapidot was just a CONCEPT, so I wanted to update it a bit according to lore and my own headcanons.
Updated every Friday !!
** I will be AVOIDING graphic depictions of Lapis' trauma at all costs!! She will have flashbacks, but nothing explicit will be mentioned.** -

Summary
"Now I know what your thinking. This thing doesn't look like a Rose Quartz. So in order to prove that this is indeed Rose Quartz, I brought in a gem-identifying robonoid!" Yellow Zircon announced.
The robonoid scanned the hideous creature that was supposedly "Rose Quartz". Yellow Zircon pulled her screen out waiting for the results.
Blue Zircon stood there nervously, clutching her own screens. Once the robonoid revealed that this was indeed Rose Quartz, there wouldn't be much she could do for her. They'd both be shattered, Rose Quartz for shattering Pink Diamond, and herself for not completing her task.
Which was to prove Rose Quartz innocent.
Yep, she's definitely going to be shattered.
Just then, a notification popped up on Yellow Zircon's screen, signaling that the results had come in. Yellow Zircon opened it smugly, already knowing what it would say.
Yellow Zircon opened the message, and almost dropped her screen from shock. She couldn't believe her eyes. This couldn't be possible. The robonoid had to have been broken or tampered with.
But no, the robonoid was not broken, nor had it been tampered with.
That was no Rose Quartz.
That was a Pink Diamond.

Summary
It’s the dawn of Era 3 and Little Homeworld has recently finished construction. Peridot theoretically has everything she’s ever wanted: an awesome home, close friends, and an important job as Chief Technician.
She’s having increasingly complicated feelings about Lapis and her personal projects have taken a turn towards the dangerous, but that’s fine -- she can handle it. Also, Zircon is absolutely convinced a Homeworld Gem has it out for Peridot, but she’s probably just being nervous as usual. That’s nothing a marathon of trashy TV can’t fix.
Meanwhile, Lapis is dealing with complicated feelings of her own, and Bismuth just wants her friends to calm down and talk to each other.
They’re all responsible, professional Gems, and everything is completely under control and not on fire.
[A Future-era story starring the Crystal Gems B-Team plus one anxious disaster lawyer, as they try to keep everything they’ve built from falling apart.]
