No More Joy Rides

          It was hard, cutting off contact with all his friends. All the people he knew and cared about. It was for the best- it was because he cared about them so much that he couldn't go near them anymore, though.

          He'd never admit it to the gems or to his dad, but it was harder than he expected—especially within the first few days of his decision.

(Read it below or on Ao3.) 

           It was hard, cutting off contact with all his friends. All the people he knew and cared about. It was for the best- it was because he cared about them so much that he couldn't go near them anymore, though.

           He'd never admit it to the gems or to his dad, but it was harder than he expected—especially within the first few days of his decision.

           Tears crept up and stung his eyes at every tiny thing that reminded him of his now-former best friend... but he couldn't do anything about them this time but hide them. The gems would worry and try to tell him again that he couldn't do this.

           But he had to do this. He had to protect everyone and keep them away from the dangers of the Crystal Gems’ presence.

           Steven’s day had been awful. There wasn’t any way around it. He’d spent hours on end digging scraps from the hand ship out of the sand, he felt sore in every bone in his body, and he hadn’t even been able to use the day’s digging to distract himself from his decision to keep humans out of his life. The Cool Kids had been very kind to him in their offers and seemed worried when he’d grown more vehement in his protests, but he’d ultimately convinced them he needed to focus on his gem work so he could get it done.

           Or at least he’d thought he’d convinced them.

           It hurt more than it should’ve as he fumbled around beside himself on his bed to find his phone and it quickly proved to not be worth it. Jenny. He couldn’t go with them to hang out—he’d told them that earlier. Why did they have to make it so hard to say no…?

           Rather than rejecting the call, Steven just let it ring through and hoped Jenny would assume he was asleep. Which… sleep did sound nice. He’d just have to get comfortable despite his aching muscles and bones to be able to sleep. When his phone fell silent, Steven started quietly filling the lack of noise with soft humming. He'd learned a long time ago how to sing himself to sleep, and while it never worked as well as someone else singing to him, it was usually worth the effort.

           ... Until his phone started ringing again.

           Trying not to give into the sinking feeling in his gut, he rolled over (ignoring the pain of it the best he could) and pulled his pillow over his ear. He couldn't hang out with them.

           The next call was almost immediately after that one.

           The fourth call, he almost picked up, but he was too late for it anyways. Instead, he did check who the calls were from. Two from Jenny, one from Buck, and the other from Sour Cream.

           He stayed sitting up, expectantly waiting for another call. If they were that insistent, he'd just have to tell them no again.

           After a few minutes had ticked by in silence, though, he was about to lay down again when a soft but regular thumping noise made its way to his ears instead.

           Footsteps coming up the stairs outside.

           Ah geez, of course they would stop by—he should've answered, the beach was still dangerous-

           Steven hauled himself out of his bed before the front door could even be knocked on, ready to confront the Cool Kids… when an out-of-breath Kiki made her way up the rest of the staircase.

           "Kiki? The beach is dangerous right now, what are you doing out so late?" He wouldn't have expected it from her the way he did from the Cool Kids.

           "Jenny... called me... She said- she and the guys were driving... and they found some gem thing in a field... Woo, I need to sprint more."

           Gem thing? Surely it couldn't be part of the ship- nothing had gone farther than the pier for the most part. "Let me get the gems and we'll go check it out."

           With that, Steven rushed to the Temple door and started knocking on it loudly. "Guys! Guuuuys, gem emergency!"

           Surprisingly, the Temple door opened way quicker than it ever had before when he called for them—revealing all three of them coming from Garnet’s room.

           “Steven! I’m surprised you’re still awake—what did you need?” Pearl still had that tone he’d heard over the past few days. She was worrying about him again.

           “Kiki’s here. Jenny called and said there’s some kind of gem thing at… where are they at, Kiki?”

           She seemed to be doing better at least, leaning against the inside of the doorway but catching her breath well. “She said they went out driving and found a big glowing thing in a field.”

           And with that, no more needed to be said as the Crystal Gems sprung into action.

           Steven kept his eyes on the ground, shuffling a rock around with his sandal while the gems crowded around the abandoned escape pod—examining it. Jenny had taken over explaining what happened (after she, Buck, and Sour Cream had all clambered to tell the gems at the same time) which had left the other two to their own devices. And those devices seemed to involve whispering to each other and glancing in Steven’s direction often.

           He felt bad. He should’ve answered his phone to just tell them no instead of avoiding them, but… it was just so hard. He knew this had to be the right decision. He needed to keep everyone safe—he had to. That was part of being a Crystal Gem. But… well, it was kind of like what Pining Grapefruit had said a few episodes ago on Crying Breakfast Friends, wasn’t it? Sometimes the right decision was the hard one.

           But he really did miss her already…

           No. He didn’t need to think about her. Not in the middle of a mission. Steven focused himself back on the conversation the gems were having.

           “We’ll have to bring it back with us. It’s far too dangerous to leave it out here where humans can stumble on it like those three did.”

           “Uuugghh. Can’t we just destroy it? Carrying it back is gonna take too long.”

           “Amethyst! This is a piece of Homeworld technology, the likes of which we’ve never seen here on Earth. We cannot waste such a good opportunity and just destroy it! Think of all the possible knowledge we can gleam from it. This might be our only chance against Homeworld-“

           A light tap on his shoulder shook Steven to attention again, and it was only after that he realized that he’d been close to dozing off where he stood.

           “Hey, man… you sure you’re okay? If we’re too much in your space, it’s cool or whatever—we’re just kinda worried about you.” Sour Cream’s face was rarely anything besides calm and relaxed, but now it held a furrow in his brow that felt as abnormal for him as it looked.

           Shucks, now he was worrying them even more.

           “Enough.” Garnet’s voice cut through everything and mercifully saved him from having to come up with any sort of answer. She didn’t seem upset… but she didn’t seem happy either. “We take it home with us, learn what we can, and then we destroy it. Amethyst, shapeshift to carry it with me. Pearl, Steven—make sure no parts are left behind.”

           “Wait-” Jenny interjected, startling practically everyone. “Shouldn’t Steven go home to sleep or somethin’? It’s like—waaaaay too late for him. Let us drive him back home.”

           Before any of the gems could speak up, Steven straightened up his tired slouch. “No, no—no worries, I’m fine. I should help.” He glanced up at the gems, pausing on Garnet’s visor. In the dull light, he could see nothing behind it, but he could guess what she was doing in her silence.

           When she spoke after a few silent, burning moments, it was very much to Steven’s disappointment. “Right. Steven, you should go home and get some rest. The three of us can handle this… You’ve done enough for the day.” Her tone was so certain that he knew there was no arguing. Not when he was genuinely so exhausted.

           The ride home was near silent, the teenagers of the car seeming to understand he was in no mood (and currently not awake enough) for conversation. He thanked Jenny quietly for driving him home before he shut the door and thanked them all once more for calling the gems before he started across the sand towards the Temple, dragging his feet more than he should.

           As Steven finally crawled in bed to stay for the night, he recognized one thing before he drifted off into a restless sleep.

           That would be the last time he’d ride with any of the cool kids. Maybe even the last time he spoke to them.

           And he’d have to be okay with that.

I’m so curious as to why Steven is crying on your Pfp

It's actually from a recent scene in the AU! Though I drew it before I finished and put out the fic, it's the shot of him starting to cry when he realizes Pearl is back to normal. This shot is pretty closely followed by the gorgeous drawing by cotgar!

#fs questions #I have a headache and can't remember all the tags I do here #so uh #admin stuff #I guess? #I'll clean up these tags later lmao

[fallen-stars-au]

I know this is a huge spoiler, but will Connie and Steven be together? (I just hope for happy ending and fear of too much angst)

You're right, that is a huge spoiler. And I'm not gonna answer it because of that lol. That being said!! I do want to say that no matter what the ending is, it's going to be a bittersweet one. I'm not a big fan of overworking angst, and personally, I love dynamic endings that give all sorts of positive and negative reactions at the same time. I aspire to ensure the story of this AU has an ending like that to the best of my abilities.

#admin stuff #fs questions

[fallen-stars-au]

I'm very new here and I'm already in love, so I gotta ask, do you creators plan on doing a fic or comic out of this one day? Or will this stay as an ask-type interaction? (both -or thirth?- are good! I'm just curious!!) ((again, I'm very new and idk if this has been asked before, I tried looking for it but didn't find it, so if it has been asked before and I missed it, I apologize!!)

Hey, there! First off, thank you for asking! I'd always rather answer something multiple times over someone just not knowing. I don't remember this being asked before, and I can't recall if I've kept any of the updates that answer it, so this is a good place to say it.

I currently have multiple fics in the works for this AU!! The entire AU is going to continue being comprised of separated fics, comics, and occasionally asks. Asks are going to remain open, but they're mostly going to be used as inspiration points from now moving onwards. I doubt I'll ever be able to do a weekly comic page or anything, but I'm hoping to draw some of the bigger moments of the story as opposed to only writing it out. That being said, progress is generally gonna always be rather slow. I'm in graduate school working on my Master's degree, and Saturn has school as well. But I hope you can enjoy the story whenever I'm able to put it out nonetheless!

Thanks!

-Andi

Hey, y'all! I'm so sorry for disappearing again. Basic synopsis- we've been working heavily on moving house and now I'm sick to boot. I'll try my best to get more up soon. In the meantime, have this incredible piece done by @cotgar2 !!! I won their most recent DTIYS and couldn't resist asking for this scene as my prize.

Can’t Go Back

((Hey, I’m finally back!! I’m sorry for the wait- life is absolute chaos right now. I’m trying to work on things when I’m able to, though, and here we can finally pick back up from where we left off!! Thank you all so much for your patience. Love, Andi)) 

Steven is finally home, but... well, he shouldn't be for very long.

Right?

He has Diamond duties and is sure to be so behind on paperwork- plus the Diamonds are sure to be furious about what happened.

So he should get on back to Homeworld as quick as he can... right?

(Continue reading on Ao3 or below.) 

Prev | First | Next (TBC) 

           He was floating.

           Or… was he?

           It was hard to tell. He was definitely in the sky—the fresh air arguing with his messy curls in cool gusts of wind. So he had to be floating, surrounded by the violets of sunset that were steadily turning darker as he continued to move through it.

           He went up higher, surprised at the lack of clouds as the space around him turned to pitch black night with just the pinpricks of stars living so very far away to light the area. He was going too high… but it was so peaceful. And it had been so long since he’d been able to float with so little effort.

            A bright movement to his left caught in his peripherals, and he sharply turned to look. Two new, larger dots had appeared from nowhere and seemed to be moving. Shooting stars? Oh, that had to be beautiful from the ground especially. But they seemed a little too close to Earth for comfort. Maybe he should check for any expected showers and any possible dangers of them because these two really were rather close.

            Unless they weren’t actually stars? They did seem to be getting bigger quickly. And instead of all the different colors of fire, they were just pure white.

            He glanced down towards the Earth for a moment… but as he did a full, slow spin, there was no Earth to be seen. There was nothing but stars that suddenly all felt too… flat. Too white. He fumbled to turn himself back around towards the mysterious white dots and just as he got there, his arms were suddenly pinned to his sides and something took an iron grasp on him.

            Blindingly white fingers cuffed their way around his whole body as two deadly talons buried their way into his skin, and in no more seconds, he was ripped into two…

            And then he was falling. Earth came rushing back into view as he dropped like a rock towards it. There was nothing he could do—there was no stopping this—he couldn’t float, he couldn’t fly, no one to come help him—just hard ground racing towards him.

            He couldn’t even brace for impact because there was no bracing for this—

             Steven shot upright, panting hard as he lit up his lofted bedroom with vibrant pink. After a moment of flailing around somewhat in panic, it pretty quickly set in that his house completely silent and empty with only the waves crashing on the shore outside to keep him company.

            He was fine. He was safe. It was just another nightmare. Just another bad dream—he dealt with those all night, every night by now. What was one more?

            But after a few slow moments, reality started to settle in a tad more. He was… he was home. He was actually home. He wasn’t— He wasn’t on Homeworld. He wasn’t in the tower anymore.

            It took a few minutes for that fact to process and for Steven to comb through his recent memories to figure out how that had happened. After being trapped in there alone for however long he had been—he remembered the count was somewhere over two weeks—not very much had even registered in his mind anymore.

            He’d been in the tower… and then suddenly there was light. And then he was being moved—being carried. He had some vague memories of being taken care of by Lapis and Peridot and Pearl, but mostly he could just remember his dreams from however long he’d been sleeping for. None of which had been particularly good, but he’d decidedly had worse as well.

            After a few slow minutes, Steven pushed off his blanket and slowly hauled himself up out of his bed—heading straight over towards his dresser. However he’d gotten out of the tower, he knew it hadn’t been the full time the Diamonds had intended to keep him in there for. So while there was no way in the universe he was willingly going back into that tower to please them, there was surely some damage control that needed to be done.

            The glow of his skin faded out as he searched his drawer—settling on one of the easy, plain white shirts he’d begun wearing a couple years prior (it was a lot easier to replace them when he accidentally ripped through them- an occurrence which was thankfully much less often now as he’d learned to suppress the swelling issues) and a pair of jeans. His usual attire, but it was comfortable and easy. He grabbed a pair of socks as his eyes adjusted to just the moonlight streaming through his windows and headed for the stairs.

  ��         As Steven made it down the first two steps, he froze at a familiar sound he hadn’t heard in a very long time.

            The house lit up a light blue for a moment as Pearl emerged from the Temple. Pearl-Pearl. Not the rejuvenated, overly-annoying version of Pearl he’d grown used to and tired of—even if she’d been poofed, she would never wear the outfit she had on now. She noticed him quickly, and Steven was stunned still again as she spoke up.

            “Steven! I’m so glad you’re finally awake—we’ve been so worried. Lapis and Peridot went over to Greg’s to check on Garnet and Amethyst. I’ll have to call and let them know you’re up.” Steven couldn’t help as tears of… relief? Joy? Probably some combination of the two? that started to well in the corners of his eyes. Pearl was back.

            A long moment of silence stretched as he processed the information, but he couldn’t help notice as Pearl’s expression changed from relief to confusion and slight concern.

            “Steven… Where are you going? We picked up some of your favorites to eat when we brought you home, and the shops are all closed this late.”

            That sobered Steven up. Was he still overjoyed to see and hear Pearl talk and look like herself? Of course. But… well… that meant she wouldn’t be happy with his answer either.

            “I was just… going to figure out how mad they are.” As the confusion visibly turned to disapproval, Steven was quick to try and explain. “You know how they get when they’re mad—especially White, and she’s the one who made me go there and I don’t want…” The tears were coming back again quickly as his voice faltered. All the horrific possibilities of what White could do if she tried. All the things she had done in anger already… He couldn’t risk it.

            Pearl’s approach was steady, but her expression was stern. Her own worries crept into her voice as she stopped at the bottom of the stairs, but her tone was still firm. “Steven, you need to rest. You were locked in there for far too long without sunlight and without actual Earth food.” She was growing angrier now, but Steven knew it wasn’t at him. “Forget what they want. If they insist on treating you like this then they frankly don’t deserve to spend any time with you at all. And if they want to start the war again over what we did, I’ll have more than a piece of my mind to give them.”

            It was too much. The relief and the joy of the version of Pearl he knew best and the only one he considered his family finally coming back, the swell of love he felt from just how much she genuinely cared about him (over the stupid worshipping he’d suffered through over the past year), the guttural fear and anxiety of the Diamonds and their reactions, the stress of not knowing how much work had surely piled up for him or what had gone wrong in his absence, and the deep resentment towards… well, towards all of Homeworld…

            The tears finally spilled over, and he practically jumped over the remaining few stairs. It took Pearl a stunned moment before she wrapped her arms back around Steven in return, but once they were there, she didn’t let go of him for hours as he cried—finally letting out so much he’d been piling up on himself without the gems, without his family, there to support him.

            He’d have to return to Homeworld at some point. Likely rather soon as well—if he didn’t go to them, they’d send someone for him eventually.

            But for now… Pearl was right. And he’d admit as much to her a thousand times and bear all the gloating such an admission brought as long as it meant she was back to her overbearing, fearless, rebellious, strict, motherly self.

Welcome to Fallen Stars!

This AU is created by myself ( @englandamericaitaly ) and @from-a-distant-world and run primarily by me (Andi).

We are happy to welcome you, and hope you enjoy your stay here. This AU is a combination of character asks, fics, art, and occasionally comic strips. Please feel free to engage in any way you’d like!! 

You can start from the beginning here. 

Here is the FAQ and Character Designs (the latter of which can also be found via #fs designs if on mobile).

I’m back!!

Hello, hello!!

I wanted to give everyone an update on where I'm at right now. First off- I got all A's again this semester, so woo!! I hate having to do hiatuses during my semesters, but grad school is really hard and I would say my grades reflect how hard I'm working and how much focus I place on school.

I'm currently working on the next FS post that'll go up- I don't have an ETA just yet, but I can say that it's going to be a fic to get us started again!!

I wanted to make a couple announcements along with that.

1. When I do get the AU started back up again, it's going to be different. I'm not going to be doing daily posts anymore nor will I have the characters answering asks nearly as much. This is a good thing, though!! I want to drive the overall story more now, and the way for me to do that is a combination of fics and comics!!

Please feel free to continue sending character asks, and I'll use those to my advantage when possible. Prompts to me directly, though- direct questions of what happened in x scenario or to y character in the past- will be the best fuel for me to continue from here!

2. I am now ready to put up a permanent link to the Discord Server!! Here shortly, I will be making a new pinned post where it'll be linked along with the entry rules!

Thank you all so much for your patience, and I'm so excited to get started on FS again!!

I’ll have a week or two off after it ends to rest and try to build up material for the AU to continue, but unless something changes, I should be able to pick back up around the start of June at the latest!!

Preview time!! I’m not entirely done with my piece, but as it currently stands, here’s the preview of my piece in the @iamapearlzine !!!! I’m so excited to be close to finishing this and even more excited for the zine as a whole as it’s coming together!!

So I'm now officially on hiatus until I finish this semester, but!!! I'm very happy to announce I'm taking part in a zine! My first one!!

I should have a lot more of the AU planned out by the time I can come back full time, and until then, I'll make updates when I have them and will be working on my zine piece!!

THE FULL TEAM IS ASSEMBLED! We’ve got all of our contributors happily stuffed into a rollicking Discord server where they’re working away with great gusto. Even the organizers are getting in on the fun, some of us in the zines we’re running, some in other organizers’ zines! The spitballing, brainstorming, sketching, drafting and sharing has already been incredible, I’m SO EXCITED for everything that’s to come. But for now, here are our fabulous and talented contributors:

DTIYS Winners Announcement!!

That’s right, IT’S TIME TO ANNOUNCE THE WINNERS!!! 

You all made my decision incredibly tough with so many talented entries, and I wish I had the extra time to give out so many more than just two prizes. Since I have to name one, though, I am very excited to announce our first winner...

 eve-kate!!!

There really were so many incredible entries, but I really felt the same mood and emotions came across excellently here while still really personalizing the image composition!! 

And now the muuuuch easier decision because it’s all left to fate!! The random drawing for the second winner! 

Note: I am so sorry the quality of the video came out so horribly. I have waaaay too many tabs open because I’m taking a break homework while doing all this, so my poor laptop is struggling a bit. 

imacartoonfreak !!!

Thank you SO very much to everyone who participated. It really has been one of the few lights in my life so far this semester, and I can’t find the words to express how much it means to me that anyone enjoys something I create enough to dedicate this sort of time to it. All I can find the words for is thank you, thank you, thank you. 

And congratulations to our winners! I’m excited to get started on your prizes!
