Hmmm,

I think I’ve seen you somewhere before

ASD Brains be Like - Snicker Knife

I was walking, you know, like a normal human being, and somehow my brain made a series of connections that resulted in me thinking “could you murder somembody with a snickers bar?”.

I now know, thanks to 20 minutes of contemplation, how to kill somebody with a snickers bar.

Place the snickers in your refrigerator to make sure that they're solid, but not too hard.

Remove from fridge and quickly slice off parts of the bar to create a wedge, point or blade, whichever works.

Quickly place bar in freezer to avoid melting, and to solidify/harden it.

Use when ready

The only issue I could think of is if the target runs, you will no longer have a knife, but you will have a snickers bar so you can apologise for trying to kill them. Nut allergies give a +7 to damage

Also, to dispose of the evidence, eat your weapon. It won’t be as nice as a normal snickers bar, cos it's covered in blood, but I’m sure you can make do. You’re on the run from the law now after all. Why did you do this, idiot? Why?

Thank you for coming to my ted talk

Kill la Kill headcannon

Ryuko's glove (the one she used to power up Senketsu) left a permanent scar on her arm from the times when she used it. She doesn’t really mind, she sees it as a connection to him.

Just finished watching Kill la Kill... Wow. Emotions. I might write a fanfic

Hot Take 2: Electirc Boogaloo

The chest in lion's mane contains pink diamond's essence. It's probably how they'll cure Steven's corruption if it does happen!

I doubt they would just leave that plot hole.

Episode 15 & 16 Analysis Bits

This is a analysis post of all the little things that I, and probably some of you guys noticed in the latest 2 episodes.

The Diamond Essence

So Steven used all the diamond essence. Everyone knows that. But the contrast between how the essence blends in episode 1 and 15 is pretty interesting.

In episode 1 of SUF, the blend of essence looks very smooth, bright, and wavy. It sparkles in a very nice and harmonious way.

However, in the latest episode, the blend looks far more... fragmented. Unstable. Dark.

This is probably a representation of his mental state being far more jarred, unstable, and just unhealthy. Rather than spreading evenly and properly, his essence just spreads, like a stain. Or a corruption scar....

Steven's forms

Steven has changed shape, size and even color this season. There are some things to take note of:

Steven's form changes either uniformly or chaotically. This probably indicates weather the change is a reaction or an internal change. That's why Steven grew so chaotically and unsustainably in Growing Pains, but grew in a “healthier” way during Fragments. Not that the way he grew was healthy at all.

We know from the series that gems, including Steven, change form depending on their mental state. Steven changed into chad Steven because he felt stronger. Steven might change into the wyrm because he feels out of control, like a corrupted gem.

Pink Diamond Resembelence

Steven underwent a number of physical changes during Fragments, but one of the most significant ones was his increasing resemblance to his mother.

He's taller, about quartz height. His hair is poofier, like Pink's hair, and it even has the same tufts as hers. And the eyes? People have been pointing out that they have white pupils like White's , rather than Blue and Yellow's black pupils. And that must be deliberate.

White said she wanted to fix things. When she couldn’t, she moved ahead. Steven wants to fix things, but he can't live without a purpose. His family saw him as a burden when he couldn’t do anything. That has fed into his current state, if not created it.

Betraying Every Single Crystal Gem Value

This is probably one of the things that hit me the hardest in this episode. He managed to:

Destroy organic life

SHATTER A GEM

Enjoy violence and causing pain

Within 3 days. All things that his mother fought so hard to prevent from occurring. Perhaps this is why he has decided to do it. His mother didn’t want it, so in an attempt to prove that he's his own person, he does all of the things that would cause disapproval from anyone but Jasper.

It's convoluted and awful, but in a way it makes sense. If he does what his family wants, they will always want more. They'll never want more of this.

Greg

When Steven said “You’re just like mum”, I was astounded by how offensively Greg took it. Astounded for a good reason. He realises that Rose wasn't an entirely altruistic person.

I think this actually shows an incredible amount of strength in Greg. I feel like Steven overreacted in the situation, but Greg has grown nonetheless.

He did get carried away though. He whisked Steven through his youth, without any regard for his feelings. Instead of sitting and talking, he tried to distract Steven. And that CD... context, Greg. Context.

Also, they way that he implies that Steven was “free” shows how little he helped bring up Steven after he moved in with the gems.

Anyway, that was a lot to unpack. I hope you enjoyed reading it! If you have any thoughts, let me know.

Steven Falls Over

Hmm... this could be foreshadowing....

Or maybe Pearl pushed Steven onto the rink...

I dunno, just saying. Those are some skinny hands...

Steven Universe Color Correction!

I was doing some screenshot edits when I had a brainfart and decided to find out the colors of the zircons and the wormy boi.

Basic Tutorial

There are a number of different types of blending modes for layers, as many of you undoubtedly know. Most screenshots from SU that are worth editing seem to have a darker shade, similar to a multiply layer.

Anyone who passed 5th grade math knows that the opposite of multiply is divide, which also happens to be a blending mode.

So, the method I used to correct my colors goes as follows:

Load your screenshot into your art program

Add a new layer and set the blending mode to divide. Hide this layer for now.

Find something on the screenshot that would be white under normal lighting. Eyes, teeth and the like.

Use the eydropper tool to copy the color on one of these areas.

Make the divide layer visible, and use the bucket/fill tool to fill the layer with the color you copied.

Tada! You should now have an edited screenshot with accurate colors.

Actual Theories

Remember when the biggest controversy in the fandom was if the prosecuting Zircon was yellow or green? Simpler times. Anywho: I used the same method, and...

Why yellow there.

I cross checked this with other people's edits, and it seemed pretty consistent. She yello!

I decided to do the defending Zircon just for fun:

So, next bit: Wormy Boi.

@novantinuum made an interesting post about the similarities in scenery and lighting between the Wormy Boi's title sequence appearance and a number of scenes in the most recent trailer. I sampled the color from the trailer, put it on the title sequence, and well... the results speak for themselves.

This is how a trailer scene looked before it was fixed:

This is how a trailer scene looks when fixed:

And the Worm?

Yup.

Please tell me if there is any way to improve my method!

Also, I’m working on the high school AU thing.

Hot Take

Steven is in hospital for emergency psychiatric treatment. If his mental state is really as bad as it seems, it's probably deteriorating at a pace where it is unlikely to be controlled without drastic intervention. He's having flashbacks, for God’s sake.

There are a number of reasons why a person can be hospitalised in this situation:

They require medication for their mental state, and need to be kept under observation to make sure there are no adverse effects

They are so unwell that they are unable to control their responses, and may be a danger to themselves or others

They may be suicidal or show suicidal tendencies

I feel like Rebecca wouldn’t go quite that far, but given that the latest leak that more or less involved Steven saying that he didn’t want to live anymore, I wouldn’t put it past her.

I was once hospitalised due to a mental health breakdown. I hated it, and I have trauma from the expirience. I only hope that Steven manages to avoid the worst of it.

Also... Why is he in a boat? It it the H.M.S Residual Trauma?

- Pasta

Ps. Sorry for not posting much, school went back and proceeded to kick me in the ass.

Steven Universe Future leak 2.0

Steven... you got some trauma right there... you want some help with that???

Poor babey. This show is supposed to be on hiatus, but keeps punching the fandom in the guts anyway.

Also, the image leak... are they flying?

Edit: Oh wait, they’re running.

It's school time. My endorphins have swam off, my melatonin has become too mellow for its own good, and my dopamine is smoking dope in the corner.

Question for y’all

How would you feel about a Steven Universe high school au? It would be based off those promo drawings of the gems, but set in America rather than Japan. Let me know what you think.

Here are some of the drawings btw:

I got them off the wikia, in case you were wondering

- Pasta

So... That leak, huh?

I lowkey didn’t believe the corrupted Steven theory at first but now I’m legit terrified?! Our babey is not okay?! Also the gems are handling it really badly, like absolutely abysmally?! IS GREG OKAY?!!

Okay just needed to get that out of my system, thanks for listening.

(Two posts in a day? New record!)

I think I’ve said enough...

An edgy Steven.

Seriously, those episodes made everyone worried. Get help, Steven.

Also, I’ll be posting links to some fanfics of mine soon, so stay tuned!

Did anyone see the way Lapis reacted to those chains?

How when they came towards her, she just... froze? The almost adrenaline-fueled reaction? The metaphor of “opening the floodgates”? The projection of her trauma onto the situation (who’s pitiful now)?

Maybe she hasn’t healed as well as she thinks...

Everybody on this show needs therapy, y’all.

≫ Storyline

Alexis was born in Ireland, and moved to London when she was 5. Shortly afterwards, her health began to deteriorate. Initially her family wasn’t worried, but after the illness continued for a number of months, they took her to a doctor. He requested further testing, and it was found that she had a genetic condition that would result in death unless a cure could be found.

Initially Alexis was hopeful, strongly believing that she would find a cure. However, as years went by, and her condition deteriorated further, she began to lose faith. By the time she was 15, she had essentially accepted that there was nothing she could do.

Instead of sinking into despair, she decided to live her final years as productively as possible. She read all about the world, form the average height of a penguin to the weird naming conventions of milk. However, her time was up all too fast.

She passed away at 4:30 Pm on a Sunday.

Alexis was a victim of a celestial admin error, a fault that occurs fairly rarely. She should have gone to heaven, but went to hell instead. However, she is surrounded by new friends, and finally has some semblance of normalcy.

Thanks for reading, y’all! I might post some more major OC's from different fandoms later, but this is all for now.

Splatoon Ink Headcannons

Hey yall! Some of the main assumptions that I make in this post are related to the Splatoon Manga, which is level 2 cannon. Read with skepticism!

Low tide ink

Low tide ink is unique in that it cannot splat an ink based creature, but it can still ink turf normally.

It is often used in specialty organised turf wars among children and sick/disabled cephalopods. They sometimes have issues respawning correctly, so the concept of splatting is removed from the game.

Using low tide ink does not require an ink tank, as it is a low enough density to be exclusively made in the ink sack.

It is often used as bath water, because of it's harmlessness.

High tide ink

As high tide ink is very dangerous, its transport and possession is heavily controlled by the government.

It is considered highly dangerous due to the fact that it permanently kills both ink based and non ink based creatures.

Used by the Military, Police, Assassins, and The Squidbeak Splatoon.

It must be kept in special containers that look a little bit like soy sauce sachets.

Normal weapons cannot use high tide ink, special weapons must be acquired. These weapons look more like modern day weapons.

Other headcannons

High tide ink is produced by compressing normal ink and scraping off the top layer of impurities. This process is repeated 5 to 6 times.

Ink based creatures are able to change their own ink colour. Some especially skilled cephalopods can change their tentacle patterns. It makes for a great party trick!

Thanks for reading!

An alternative gem naming system

If you’re watched Steven Universe, you’ve probably seen fan explanations about the Facet & Cut system. The system is okay, however I feel like it lacks potential somewhat. I therefore give you my alternate naming system for your gemsonas.

The structure of the system follows this pattern:

Carat

The carat section of the name shows the quality, colour and rank of the gemstone. The notation goes:

Q6-CB-R3

The Q notation represents the quality of the gem, on a scale of 1 to 10. This gem would be about average in terms of strength and other abilities.

The C notation represents the hue of the gem. This gem would be slightly towards the blue side of the spectrum. There can also be other spectrum changes, including R (red), P (pale), and I (rich). The pale term doesn’t reflect a defect in this case. For gems that can be any or many colors, other terms can be used.

The R notation indicates the gem's place in society. This is different from the caste system. The options include:

1 - Builders

2 - Warriors/Soldiers

3 - Servants

4 - Entetainers

5 - Technicians

6 - Supervisors

7 - Colonisers

8 - Scientists

9 - Administration

10 - Pilots

This gem would be some sort of servant, perhaps a Pearl.

Cut

This may sound the same as the canonical version, but my formula is somewhat different. It reads:

SCabochon-O GPearl

It can be broken down relatively easily:

The S notation indicates the shape and cut of the gemstone. The first term can either be Cabochon or Cut. The second term represents the overall shape. The example is interpreted as a oval Cabochon. If the first term is cut, however, the name is written.

You can use this method without credit, but feel free to credit anyway.
