Scarf - Eunuchoid Hambergite Anthinae, Artsy blowy, foggy and gradient multicolor background
Abstract designs challenge traditional notions of representation, inviting viewers to appreciate art in a more imaginative and non-literal manner. Abstract designs are artistic compositions that prioritize the use of shapes, lines, colors, and forms divorced from their representational or real-world references. Abstract art is a diverse and innovative artistic movement that prioritizes non-representational and non-figurative forms. Art allows you to explore and express their creativity beyond the constraints of depicting recognizable objects or scenes.

Most mineralogists believe a strange mineral named hambergite is the world’s rarest gemstone. The mineral, which only exists in tiny crystals, is believed to come from just one source — a mine in southwestern Madagascar. Its rarity has earned it the title of “The Last Minerals of Earth.”
So why is hambergite so hard to come by? Scientists aren’t completely sure. It may be related to the fact that the mine it was found in has an extremely low-temperature environment — too cold for most other gems to form. Or it could be the result of hambergite’s unique chemical composition — its molecules need a very precise environment in order to bond and form crystals.
Whatever the reason, the rarity of hambergite means it’s extremely expensive, pricing out the average collector. In fact, an auction in 2009 was so competitive that a single crystal sold for over $20,000.
That puts hambergite in a class of its own. The mineral may be the last of its kind, but it’s certainly not the least.

Homeworld Gem - (Pre-Rebellion) I’m sorry to be the one to tell you this, but… you’ve been re-assigned to Pink Diamond’s Earth colony! How will you serve your new Diamond, and how do you feel about going to such an… organic planet? 
Hessonite jerked back in surprise at the startling news. “I…what? Excuse me?”
The Agate speaking to him didn't even look up as she continued typing something away on her holographic screen. “You heard me,” she responded. “Sorry to be the one telling you this, but you've been reassigned to Pink Diamond’s Earth colony.”
“But my Diamond—”
“Yellow Diamond has thoroughly agreed to this transfer,” she said, finally snapping her gaze upwards as she closed the screen. “And you will be moved immediately.”
Hessonite’s shoulders slumped. “But Earth is such an…”
“A waste of space?” the Agate offered unsympathetically.
“...Such an organic planet,” he finished.
“That's your problem. Sorry, dearie.” She didn't sound very sorry.
“How soon is immediately?” he questioned.
“Tomorrow. So you better figure out what you're going to be taking with you. Serve your new Diamond well.”
Hessonite dipped his head and watched the high heels of the Agate click-clack away. When she was gone, he finally looked back up and sighed. “What am I going to tell Burgie?” he wondered aloud. “He's going to be so disappointed…”
As soon as he'd gotten home, he was greeted by the little face of one of his favourite Gems. “Hey, Hess! Welcome back!”
“Hey, Hambergite.” He smiled. “How are you?”
“I'm okay! I was still reminded of how I’m going not very strong at work, but it was okay. I looked forward to seeing you at home,” the smaller Gem said cheerfully.
Hessonite felt his heart crack. “Oh, Burgie… About that—there's something I need to tell you.”
“What’s wrong?” he asked, looking back at the bigger Gem.
“I've been reassigned,” he explained.
“Oh. Like a promotion?” Hambergite tilted his head to the side. “Well, that's great, right? Yellow Diamond isn't known to hand those out willy-nilly.”
“Yes, but…” He hesitated. “It's not so much a promotion as it is a complete transfer.”
Hambergite paused. “What do you mean?”
“I've been reassigned.” He paused, swallowing. “Hambergite, I'm now in Pink Diamond’s Earth colony.”
The smaller Gem’s eyes grew wide as he dropped the limb enhancer he'd been pulling off. “You…Hessy, what?”
“I'm going to Earth.”
Tears immediately came to Hambergite’s eyes. “What? No, you can’t! You can’t leave me,” he blubbered, rushing over to grab his companion’s arms. He was openly crying now. “Wh-What am I g-going to do without you?”
“Burgie…” He felt choked. “Don't make this harder for me,” he pleaded. “I don't want to leave, but I have to. You know how the Diamonds are.”
“But wh-what about me?” Hambergite cried.
“You'll be fine,” he said, trying to reassure and convince himself just as much as he was trying to comfort Hambergite. “I'm sure of it. You're strong—”
“No, I'm not! I'm weak and small and useless. I'm nothing without you, Hess.” He sniffled, looking up. “You can't leave!”
Hessonite felt his heart break. “But I have to!” he exclaimed, exasperated. “What else can I do?”
Hambergite sniffed, burying his head in Hessonite’s chest. “It's not fair,” he whispered.
“...I know.” His shoulders fell. “I'm sorry, Burgie.”
“It's okay.” Hambergite wiped his eyes. “You have to do what you have to. I-I understand…”
“I know it's hard, but just keep in mind that I love you and I believe in you,” he said. “I'm here for you in spirit, if not in presence.”
He nodded.
The two of them spent the rest of the day in still silence, unable to speak of tomorrow's impending doom. Hessonite prepared for his trip, and Hambergite gave him a heartfelt goodbye with a brave smile on his face that Hessonite was only just able to return. He promised he would come back for Hambergite someday.
And then he left his home.
As he walked away, trembling and scared, he thought back to how he remembered meeting Hambergite. The little Gem had been so scared, and was ruthlessly being berated by a Quartz soldier. It was only Hessonite’s interference that had saved him from being poofed. And in the time after that, Hambergite had grown a lot—even more than he himself realized, but he still struggled greatly with his ability.
Hessonite looked up at the sky, taking a deep breath. Despite wanting to see him soon and promising they'd meet again, Hessonite just hoped that Hambergite wouldn't be sent to Earth as well. He’d heard the rumours of an approaching war on Earth with some ragtag rebels, and he had no intention of letting Hambergite get caught up in the potential war.
He stopped in front of a large pink ship, and looked around unsurely.
He was approached by a pink Agate. “Are you Hessonite, Facet-1F Cut-6MN?” she asked, looking down at her holographic checklist.
“Yes.” He nodded, although it probably didn't matter because she didn't even look up (nothing new there, he thought).
“Good. Get in line with the others.” Then she moved away.
Hessonite frowned, before shuffling into line. The wait wasn't long, and he boarded the ship without issue. The flight was longer, but it also went without a hitch. And when they finally arrived on planet Earth, all the Gems poured out of the ship and began stretching their legs. Hessonite stumbled out and squinted against the light.
A giant pink palanquin towered above them, and the pink Agate stood at the very front, doing the diamond salute. “My Diamond,” she exclaimed with a flourish, bowing as the other Gems imitated her.
Hessonite watched with wide eyes as the giant figure of pink Diamond emerged from her palanquin. “Greetings, my subjects,” she began, opening her arms. Her eyes were filled with more warmth than Hessonite had ever seen in Yellow Diamond’s gaze. “Welcome to Earth.”
This is my home now. He glanced around, swallowing. But is it still a home if you're all alone?

This gemstone is not usually seen in jewelry, but  collectors do prize it. It  was originally discovered in southern Norway and named "Hambergite" after the Swedish Mineralogist, Axel Hamburg. Hambergite has the lowest known density of any gemstone with such a high birefringence. The most important current source is probably in Anjanabanoana, Madagascar, but recently, some nice material has also been unearthed in Molo, Myanmar, like this eye clean 1.52-carat gem.

So when I was talking to my friends about the Beauty and the Beast fusion au that I had created, I drew up a sketch of Heliodor (the Cogsworth/Lumiere fusion) if he was in the 2017 remake. Then my brain thought of what the other fusions (old and new) would be if they were in the 2017 remake
SO!
I hath created the list. Only Moonstone, Heliodor, Rhodizite, and Almandine exist in both the 1991 and 2017 versions (albeit both versions of the fusions are very different from each other personality wise with some slight altercations to their physical forms)
Moonstone (Adam, Belle) - extremely smart, extremely nerdy, and did I mention that they are kinda huge n buff? Kinda looks like a horse ngl
Heliodor (Cogsworth, Lumiere) - the epitome of a best friend fusion! They rotate 360 degrees and tell very, very bad jokes
Rhodizite (Lumiere, Plumette) - this fusion cannot stop spreading love everywhere! They love flirting and of course they give out such good hugs
Sapphirine (Cadenza, Garderobe) - such a musical fusion. They can sing and play an entire opera for you at the drop of a hat. Also a giver of wonderful hugs
Obsidian (Cuisiner, Chapeau) - best cook, best voice of reason, and everyone’s best friend! Obs may look scary at first, but they are really big teddy bear
Hypersthene (Belle, Maurice) - inverter of everything! With two genius minds combined, anything is possible!
Hambergite (Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts) - the ultimate best British parent! They are surprisingly favored by all the kids (especially Chip) as this fusion makes the best tea and scones and tell the best bedtime stories
Almandine (Cogsworth, Lumiere, Plumette) - because Dalek believes that this would happen at some point. The fusion mainly exists for Cogsworth to keep Lumi n Plume in check, but the three are such a unit together. Powerful and charming, they tend to be the fusion that sways the kingdoms to join Adam’s. They are also extremely good at chess, tho it might be because they kinda look like a chess bishop
Titanite (Cogsworth, Lumiere, Mrs. Potts) - Adam’s best (and most sane) advisor. They really only exist during times of great stress in the kingdom, but they may occasionally fuse for fun
Since I am extremely rusty with the 2017 movie, all opinions and suggestions are greatly welcome with these fusions. Also if you guys want be to make up some art and flesh these guys out a bit more, I'll gladly do so
Gonna tag @lumiereandcogsworth and @lumiereswig since they are experts of this movie
