I decided to go with "Druid & Faerie Alternate Twiniverse" :> @nugatorysheep made Druid, I wanted to finish it quickly so I didn't redraw him myself. :>
Thanks to @novantinuum for motivating me to do this with their incredible love of the og pic I did XD
Since I did some theoretical lore stuff for the other two AT's I cooked up a bit more for this one~
Some info:
Nora would be called Faerie to differentiate her from other Noras.
She calls people "Sug", short for Sugar, to match a bit with Druid's southern accent.
She also has a southern accent, though less noticeable. Definitely says 'y'all'.
Her antennas are moveable, and functional! She can sense nearby Gems with them if she concentrates. Which is fairly useful for runaway corrupted friendos, and to find Druid if they split up.
Yes, she can fly!
That's all I've got for now! If Nugget or I come up with anything else I'll let y'all know.

do you read any fancomics? i feel like there aren't any good ones other than yours so if you like some maybe I'll like them too
There are TONS of good fancomics, but the thing is, everyone has different tastes to everyone’s ideas of what is ‘good’ is going to be different.
Here’s some fancomics in the SU-sphere that you can check out!
Disclaimer: A few of the comics mentioned below contain heavier themes dealing with things like abandonment, abuse, grief and death. Although I believe these themes should be explored in art, they have the potential to be stressful and I have done my best to put warnings on all of them. Please READ THE WARNINGS. There is not anything wrong with reading about difficult or dark things, but you need to be conscious of how/what you are consuming and how it’s affecting you emotionally. Part of consuming content responsibly is knowing when to stop consuming, take a break, and put your mental health first.
Without further ado!
SU Fancomics
SU-B-Sides: A Steven Universe AU fancomic that reimagines the Crystal Gems as a different team - Bismuth, Lapis and Peridot take the center stage! This comic is wonderfully expressive with true-to-canon silliness and opens up a fascinating world of possibilities while staying true to the direction of the show! (Read here!)
Twiniverse: A Steven Universe AU fancomic about twin half-gems - Steven and Nora! When Rose discovered that she was pregnant with twins, she was devastated by the prospect that only one of the children would inherit her gem. Pearl fused with her instead and as a result, Nora now has Pearl’s gem! (Read here!)
Bad Prediction AU: This Steven Universe AU follows the timeline where Sapphire’s vision from The Answer came true - the Rebellion stopped 5750 years ago. Pink Diamond was captured and forced to be a puppet government figure, stripped of her power and instead given the Zoo to watch over. She still met Greg and had Steven - who has now grown up as a Diamond. (Read here!)
Tourmaline: A fan comic of Cartoon Network's 'Steven Universe', set in an alternate universe where Peridot never got caught. (Based off of PhantomRose96's story by the same name.) (Read here)
YellowDiamond!Steven AU: An AU that reimagines Steven as the son of Yellow Diamond. (Read here)
Pressure: A fanmade comic of the time Lapis and Jasper spend together as Malachite. Intense amount of action as well as a fascinating look into both characters’ psyche. Warning: This comic deals with a lot of trauma and includes violence and body horror. (Read here)
SU AU Gone Wrong: If you like dark stories - and I do mean DARK, as in ones that address *major character death* - you can venture into this comic. I need to stress that this deals EXPLICITLY with death, loss, grief and etc. WARNING: Death, blood, gore and very realistic depictions of grief and mourning. Do NOT read if you know you are not in a state of mind to consume this kind of content.
. . .
Original Fiction Webcomics:
I actually read very little of original webcomics lately but I feel I should recommend the ones I do know of:
Stand Still Stay Silent: This is one of my favorite comics and I own two hardback volumes of it. The story is a bit darker - set in a fantastical post-apocalyptic nordic landscape full of creatures the humans no longer have an understanding of. It’s beautifully illustrated and incredibly poignant.
Warnings: It does feature heavily in death and leans a little bit towards horror. (Read it here!)
The Strange Tales of Oscar Zahn: Follow the journey of the world's greatest paranormal investigator - Oscar Zahn. Friend to lost souls, enemy of evil, he may lack a body but that doesn't mean he's missing a heart! This one fits into the slightly-spooky-but-not-quite-horror category. Loved the atmosphere of it when I read it. (Read here!)
Lady of the Shard: This comic is one of those that bread the barriers of the medium it’s in and absolutely grow onto you despite the fact that you’re only reading it on a screen. The story has it all - heart, kindness, beings that seem beyond our understanding but end up being more human than meets the eye... and love. (Read here!)
17776 aka What Football Will Look Like In The Future: I hesitate to call this a comic because it’s more like an immersive web novella. Or rather, it’s more like a time capsule from the future that ends up being silly and moving and sobering and inspirational all at once. If you like satellites developing personalities, if you like humans fighting through the boredom of immortality by inventing and reinventing the game of football into more and more convoluted ways of playing it - this story is for you.
Warning: The very beginning of the comic contains multiple animations, and starts with a web-page morphing into something else that might be disorienting/startling for some. (Read here!)
Barbarous: I will sheepishly admit that I started Barbarous back when it came out and never caught up - but maybe recommending it will help me restart again! (Read here!)
.
This is, of course, a non-exhaustive list and I’m sure I missed many wonderful comics. Feel free to drop recs in the comments but please tag and warn for non-general themes so people can know what they’re clicking into.

Hiya @Twiniverse
You are probably right. . . that's the only way it makes sense really. . . just Steven making a random note in the middle of his score board.
Thanks for the encouragement too :)
I can't wait to finish SU so I can come read your alternate telling!

FAQ
Twins!AU Info -
This is an Alternate Universe where instead of Rose having one baby, she had two. Steven and Nora. Nobody expected Nora to be born, only Steven. So she was a big surprise to everyone.
During the “beam of light,” Rose’s gem spit up into halves. One half went to Steven while the other half went to Nora.
This AU is inspired by the @twiniverse AU
Before asking:
Please let me know who the question is going to.
if it’s for the artist, put (for the artist) first, then your question. If it’s for one of the twins or the gems, put (for *insert character here*) then your question. I recommend this because I really don’t want things getting cluttered and messy :,)
The Twins (Steven & Nora)
Q: How did the gems feel about Nora after she was born?
Pearl was.. Hesitant on accepting Nora. She, like the rest of the crystal gems and Greg, believed that only Steven would be born. But she eventually came around sometime before the twins turned two.
Garnet was kind of surprised? Her vision never said anything about Rose having twins She kept quiet around Nora for the first two weeks.
Amethyst was okay with it. More (half) humans to have fun with.
Q: Who has what?
Steven was the one who inherited Rose’s shield. Nora can summon Rose’s bubble, Steven can too but the different forms the bubble has are spit. Nora and Steven have Rose’s healing powers, Nora can float down while Steven jumps high. Their powers are pretty much split between the two.
Q: What is the relationship between Steven and Nora?
They share a loving brother-sister bond. Steven literally can’t go anywhere without Nora. She’s part of the family after all. Sometimes though Steven can get a little bit protective of his sister since after all... Nora’s the weaker twin.
Q: What does Nora look like?
Left: Seasons 1-5
Right: Movie - Future
Q: Nora is Bisexual?
Yes.
The Gems
Q: Are the crystal gems the same or...
Lapis and Bismuth are part of the crystal gems, Even with Rose around. Other than that they’re the same.
Q: Where’s Peridot?
She’ll show up later ;)
Q: Any new gems?
Maybe ;) *wink* *wink*
Other
Q: Do Steven and Nora’s gem halves get removed in Change Your Mind?
Spoilers~
Q: Can you draw?
Yes but I’m terrible at it.
Q: Will Rose/Pink come back?
No.
Q: Any gems shattered?
...

Been awhile since I've done an Alternate Twiniverse version, hasn't it? This time I decided to give poor Druid from Walk the Line a companion =)
She calls people "Sug". Also she can fly! I bet she hovers around him sometimes just for fun.
@nugatorysheep welcome to the Alternate Twiniverse fam. Along with White Diamond Alternate Twiniverse and Bad Prediction Alternate Twiniverse. Druid Alternate Twiniverse?

So here's the thing.
I'm jealous of other creators. Surpassing me in likes, comments, follows... getting recognition, getting all kinds of kick ass fan projects... and I hate being jealous, because there's no reason to be. All of my issues boil down to 'I would be more popular if I tried with my art and posted more often.' That's 100% on me and has nothing to do with other creators!
That's it. That's all I have to do. And I would like to begin actually trying on this comic more after. But now we get to THE THING. The early comics are bad. Like, really bad. Because I didn't care! I just wanted to get the story out and move on. But the beginning comics are supposed to draw in your audience. Seeing just a bunch of blobs with no real effort put into them... that's a turn off. I wouldn't read a comic like that!
SO. I'm going to be redoing a lot of them. Maybe all of them, maybe not Mirror Gem and Desert Dance because those are both decent... We'll see. I'm still going to try to do actual story updates. If all goes to plan I will alternate between an actual new episode and redraws of the old ones. Of course some of the old ones are really small updates, so I can knock out more of those in a shorter amount of time.
I'm just asking that you all bare with me here. I know this is frustrating, waiting all this time between updates just for me to go back and redraw a bunch of stuff I already drew... but I think this is what I need to do to be happy with myself. Because right now, I'm not. I'm disappointed. I know I can do better, I've been proving that for years with various other works I've done. And Twiniverse deserves better.
So, yeah, that's the thing.
I hope you all keep sticking around, and I'll try to be more attentive and definitely try to update way more often. I know it doesn't seem like I've been working much, but I've actually been finishing the references for almost every major non-human character. Gonna do the humans, too, at some point. So I've been hardcore focusing on the designs. I know you don't get to see them yet, but I just need you to know I AM working on this comic all the time in various ways.
I'm also jealous of Chekhov's dog. I love Wensy so fucking much.

FAQ
Verse Info:
This is an Alternate Universe of the show Steven Universe. In this universe, Rose and Greg conceive Twins. Rose realizes she can only give her Gem to one of the babies and begins to grieve over this. Pearl notices this grief and, knowing she’ll lose Rose either way, decides to give her Gem to one of the babies to make Rose happy.
The twins are born as a boy and a girl named Steven and Nora. Neither Pearl nor Rose planned on which baby got which Gem, so it was just coincidence that Steven got Rose’s Gem and Nora got Pearl’s.
The Verse was created by an artist named Pip, he/him, whose main accounts are peregrinvirtual.tumblr.com (rarely used because he’s lame) and littlepippit.deviantart.com.
Before asking a question, please clarify if it’s for the Artist or for one (or more) of the Characters. Please note that when asking Characters questions, you should have the same level of knowledge as Steven and Nora. For all intents and purposes, you, the asker, are a random human on their version of Earth. You don’t know about Fusion, or Corruption, or Homeworld, or the Diamonds, etc. Innocent questions like “Do you know Connie?” may be answered, if they’re not too meta. Also, remember, not all questions will or could possibly get answered.
FAQ Under the Cut :3
Comic:
Q. Why is the comic in black & white?
It’s easier for me that way. Colouring takes more time, and I don’t like the way the characters look in colour on empty backgrounds. Occasionally I will do pages with some colour but it won’t be the norm.
Q. Why don’t you draw backgrounds?
Backgrounds are hard and they take a long time for me. It’s not fun to draw them, so I don’t if I don’t need to. I feel like I include enough information to give you an idea of where they are in the world when necessary, though.
Q. Will we get X episode?
Maybe. I’m not just doing every episode. The earlier episodes are going to be pretty similar to a lot of season 1 episodes because I’m trying to get the same basic information out, but not many Twiniverse episodes are just going to be Steven Universe episodes except with the Twins.
Q. Patreon? Discord?
No Patreon. I tried it for a bit but couldn’t handle posting regularly and giving perks.
No to Discord. I had one but it was dead and discouraging me so I deleted it for my sake and the comic’s.
Q. Can you draw X?
We can discuss commissions, but I won’t draw anything as a request. I may decide to draw certain things for the comics, like Fusions that won’t appear, but they won’t be posted. At least not for a while.
Q. Can I draw X?
Yes! I love seeing fanart! I would love to see what you come up with!
Q. Are you going to the Movie/Future
Probably not, so here’s 16 year old Nora:
Steven & Nora:
Q. Are the twins actual twins?
Yes, they were both conceived by Greg and Rose without Pearl’s involvement. Rose was pregnant with them both. Pearl giving Nora her Gem is more like a human giving another human a kidney.
Q. How did Pearl give Nora her Gem?
I, like many other fans, believe Rose erupted into some form of light when Steven was given her Gem. That light may have been the cause of Greg’s permanent “sun” burn.
Rose started to glow first, then Pearl added her light to Rose’s. They did not actually fuse and Rainbow Quartz was not involved in any way. When the light faded, the twins were there. They were both born at the exact same time. Pearl was never pregnant, she just transferred her Gem during the light show.
Q. Why does Nora have Rose’s features?
Nora just takes more after Greg than Pearl, due to the fact that Greg contributed the most to her Organic form. I did take a little bit of liberty with giving her lips like Rose’s, though. Since Rose is the one who conceived and carried Nora, some “genetic” traits passed to her during that time. It’s also partially because she looks good with those lips and partially because it’s very possible Greg could carry a gene for them. Her eyelashes were an accident, but would fit just like Steven’s hair is reminiscent of Rose’s originally.
Q. Why do the twins call Pearl “mom” if she didn’t carry them?
That’s just how Greg raised them. That’s how he sees the situation. Even if Pearl didn’t physically carry the twins, she’s still a mom to them.
Q. Can the twins fuse and do they make Rainbow Quartz?
Yes and yes. Unfortunately you’ll just have to wait to see!
Q. How old are Steven and Nora?
12 currently, and were born August 15th at the exact same time. Neither is older.
Twiniverse Crystal Gems:
Q. Which of the surviving CG’s were with Rose during the Rebellion?
Ruby, Pearl, and Peridot.
Q. Is Agate made of our Peridot and Amethyst?
Yup! The Gems you know and loved, just mashed together.
Q. What kind of Agate is Agate?
Polyhedroid Agate! She only goes by Agate, though, like Garnet.
Q. How long has Agate been around?
Longer than the Twins.
Q. Is Agate a romantic relationship?
Yes. No, I don’t care what Maya said about it. This is an AU.
https://twiniverse.tumblr.com/post/626946291138707456/imagine-shipping-peridot-even-though-shes
Above, see a much longer post about why Peridot is AceAro and in a relationship. It boils down to “I’m acearo but want a relationship and in my AU Peridot’s the same kind of acearo as me.”
Q. Can we see Peridot and Amethyst?
Their current forms will be shown after Agate reforms! These forms will not appear in the comic, but I will be posting them shortly after that. Which may be sooner than you think.
Q. How can Peridot, an Era 2 Gem, have been in the Rebellion?
In this AU, our Peridot is an Era 1 Gem, who is most likely just an overcooked runt. Her height could also be attributed to being improperly implanted in her Kindergarten, perhaps resulting in less resources going in to her production. Either way, she’s not an Era 2 Gem here.
Q. When did Amethyst and Lapis join?
Amethyst’s story is largely the same as it would be during the show. Lapis was found in the mirror and released shortly after the Corruption Light, and was grateful to Rose for letting her out and making sure she was okay. She was embittered by Homeworld’s treatment of her, but didn’t have the 5000 years of hating the Crystal Gems, so she didn’t seek to return immediately and instead grew to love Earth and became a Crystal Gem to help Rose and the others help the Corrupted Gems.
Other Gems:
Q. Where is Sapphire?
Sapphire is still affiliated with Homeworld. The event at the Sky Arena still happened, and she still was wrong in her prediction of the end of the Rebellion. Garnet was not formed that day. This will be addressed in the comic itself.
Q. When is Sapphire coming to Earth?
When she gets here.
Q. Is Rose still…?
Yes.
Q. If Pearl is gone, how will the PD reveal work?
Read and find out! This is a MASSIVE spoiler and I’m not going to just reveal it to people! Please, try to enjoy the ride. We’ll get there when we get there!
Q. Did Pearl love Greg, too?
Pearl absolutely did not like Greg. Their relationship was just like canon up until Rose discovered she was having Twins.
Q. Will Spi-
She doesn’t exist in this AU.
