Hiatus Update
Current state of things
Hello everyone! I just wanted to be a bit more honest about the current state of the comic. Asterite and I have been working hard for a while getting pages laid out, script finalized and designs of things to come set up for the finalization of Arc 2. It was all going quite well! Well, until some IRL things hit me. Currently I have to put the comic on an indefinite hiatus until some IRL things are resolved.
I’m sure there are some immediate questions that come to people's mind. I’ll try to get them out of the way.
___
Q:“Does this mean the comic is dead?”
A:Currently, no? It’s just on a much longer hiatus than what I previously estimated.
Q:”When will the comic come back?”
A: Well there is a difference between posting pages and continuing production. As it stands, we will probably not be working on the comic for foreseeably 6 months if all things go smoothly…
Q: “What happened?”
A: I’d rather not answer, but my time will currently be taken up with other more pressing matters than the comic I’m sad to say.
Q: “Can Asterite work on it himself?”
A: This is a team project and Asterite is waiting patiently for me to return so we can work on it together.
Q: “What if you can’t come back to production in 6 months like you said?”
A: Then we will have to all just wait longer I guess?
___
Again I’m sorry for the prolonged hiatus. But I’m working towards trying to get things settled with an unexpected IRL issue as quickly as I can.
I truly enjoy working on this project and reading everyone's comments brings Asterite and I joy. I hope you all understand we don’t want to delay the project.
I’ll post something as soon as we get an update.
Until then~

Peridot: Hyup!! Hmmm... Connie? *AHEM* Connie?
Connie: Oh! Yes?
Peridot: Your mother is a human doctor correct? Do you think you could have her come here?
Connie: I’ll ask her. Is there anything I can do to help?
Peridot: No I don’t think so. Your skill set is unqualified for the tasks at hand. Hmm, if I increase the manifold size here, I could double the output capacity... but that might cause instability in the filters.

Bismuth: I know kid, but based on what Steven said, and seeing Pearl like this? They were probably hit bythe rejuvenator and have been reset. They won’t be any good to us right now. Better to leave them like this. We have to prioritize. One crisis at a time.

Bismuth: Not gone, reset. This is a rejuvinator. It resets gems back to how they were originally made. So that’s what the Diamonds did... I knew those upper crusts were wretched, but to do this to one of their own? Disgraceful!
Connie: Do you think they were affected too?

Today’s topic brought to you by a weird conversation between Asterite100 and I hahaha.
Suit — Trying to think if I can release small silly comics during hiatus. But I'm not sure what to draw about. Asterite — The world is your oyster! Suit — I wanted it to be in connection to the comic, not about oysters. Asterite — Space oysters.
Hope you enjoy them. I’ll release them as often as I can!

Connie: The Diamonds?
Lapis: We were at Bismuth’s old forge. When we got back, we saw the Diamonds’ ship.
Peridot: We don’t know how long the Diamonds were here. They left shortly after we arrived back at Little Homeworld.
