Me, fondly remembering my playthroughs of FFVII, VIII, IX, X, X-2, and XII: I don't need more blogs I don't need more blogs I don't need more blogs I do --
Though if I did RP as anyone, it'd hands-down be Beatrix from IX.
I was really proud of the first illustration in 2020 and I don’t want to mock the way I used to draw. I don’t think there’s a time when we stop learning and I’m looking forward to getting even better
A Foggy Day in London Town (a closed starter for @feeblefortuity !!)
Even though the means existed now to heal every single Gem that had been corrupted by the Diamonds, that didn’t mean that the Crystal Gem’s work was fully over just yet. There was still the matter of combing over the world one last time to make sure there weren’t any corrupted Gems left, that they had truly found them all and achieved their happy ending. The team had split up to cover more ground, and Garnet’s search brought her to the United Kingdom.
…London had certainly become a lot more smog filled and oddly depressing since she had last been here centuries ago. The sooner she captured the Gem she foresaw roaming in the streets, the sooner she could get out of here away from this barely breathable atmosphere.
Thankfully, she wouldn’t have to look that far. Around the corner, she heard the ferocious growls of a corrupted Quartz. She summoned her gauntlets and prepared to face the danger around the bend…
And saw them attacking what looked like an ordinary London human, on his way to wherever his job was and barely managing to fend it off as is. She batted away the tears forming in one of her eyes-they would be healed soon!-and rushed in at full speed, calling to the man.
“You there! I’ll take care of this creature! Go hide somewhere for a moment; we’ll talk soon!”
i think something people forget about pink diamond is that she had compassion for life long before she went to earth
the pebbles assume steven is pink not because of his gem or aura but just because he says ‘hello’ and ‘thank you’ to them, a basic common courtesy that nobody else has given them in thousands of years
in steven’s pink visions, blue is yelling at pink about the little bugs she let loose on homeworld. when one of them is found in her cell, she is quick to check it’s okay before helping it out of the room. even before encountering humans she valued organic life.
even the garden, the setting of pink’s cruellest moment, is proof of her care for organic life. Unlike every other part of homeworld, the garden is teeming with plant-life, which was kept healthy enough that it continued to grow even after pink abandoned it. the only other homeworld structure that tends to organic life is the human zoo. who’s to say the garden wasn’t another attempt by the other diamonds to placate pink after she expressed concern for the life on one of their colonies? or maybe pink picked the plants herself from the many different colonies she visited and grew them there.
pink wasn’t perfect. she had a bad habit of acting on her emotions and impulses without considering the consequences of her actions, and she hurt a lot of people because of it. but she considered all life precious and worth protecting, it just wasn’t until she had a colony of her own that she fully understood that the expansion of homeworld was intrinsically linked to the destruction of life, and the moment she realised that is the moment she stood against it.
being tortured by a tumblr post ill never be able to find, it was a steven universe song but parts of the lyrics were replaced with a computer generated voice saying THE SKELETON
