Novantinuum’s SU fic masterpost

I saw a mutual do this, (and please go check out mimik-u’s fic masterpost, she makes lovely stuff), and thought it was a brilliant idea for ease of access on tumblr. So, without further ado:

Crack the Paragon series:

My largest fic project. Currently well over 56,000 words. ‘Tis a canon-divergent AU branching off from the episode Bismuth, wherein old secrets are accidentally revealed two seasons early, and Steven’s world is heavily shaken by these revelations. The second and third stories are one-shots set in between specific chapters of the main fic.

Crack the Paragon (AO3, 12/40 chapters, 53K words)

In another world, he doesn’t have his mother’s sword or shield to hide behind when Bismuth lands her strike. The bubble pops.

Steven falls apart.

Everything is Different Now (AO3, one-shot, 1K words)

After her unfortunate exile, Bismuth returns to her forge to work, and to reflect on her mistakes.

Seeing Pink (AO3, one-shot, 2.4K words)

Following a video call with Connie, Steven reacts to the discovery that… his eyes aren’t always human anymore.

Multi-chapter:

All but the first of these stories are actually included amidst my ongoing Brandishing the Star series, (below), but I’m placing them here since they’re all more than one chapter.

Hollowed Moon (AO3, 14 chapters, 8K)

[DISCONTINUED]

Stevonnie doesn’t crash the Star Skipper onto that jungle moon. Instead, they crash on a craggy fragment of rock suspended thousands of miles away from its associated colony, long forgotten.

On that lonely hunk of rock is a domed garden.

And standing in that garden, just as lifeless seeming as the rest of it, is a pink Gem.

Contact (AO3, ¾ chapters, 9.1K words)

The first (and with any luck, only) time it happens, he’s almost 16.

(AN: Major character injury to Steven + eventual healing.)

Second Skin (AO3, 10/12 chapters, 6.4K words)

Steven can’t help but dread the undefined cocktail of emotions that trigger this newest power…

12 shorts, each delving into Steven’s developing opinions and feelings about his “pink mode” in SUF.

Intake (AO3, 2 chapters, 6.4K words)

Steven fills out an important form.

(AN: Some Steven and Greg bonding in the second chapter of this one. Deals with topics such as therapy, depression, and mental illness in general. Mind the tags.)

Brandishing the Star one-shots:

All of the stories in this series are standalone, and were written to be canon compliant when I originally made them. Two of them aren’t anymore after SUF, but oh well! XP

(See more under cut.)

I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING. D:

Pink took Pearl’s hands, crossed them one over the other, and said, “Let’s never speak of this again.” After this, Pearl was literally incapable of talking about what she did.

In The Answer, Rose took Garnet’s hands, crossed them one over the other, and told her, “No more questions.”

And now Garnet “can’t” ask questions.
