Wait, Unless That Was Just For The Sake Of The Comic, Why Is Dan Trying To Use Diamond Powers In His

Wait, unless that was just for the sake of the comic, why is Dan trying to use Diamond powers in his Larimar form? Like, it makes sense on a tactical standpoint, but surely having and using Diamond powers would make at least one or many members of the group go "Ok, now that can't be normal, right?"

He thinks they would be convenient to have. Bro wasn’t used to feeling relatively weaker at the start and not being able to do things like that. It was more of just a habitual tendency or just wanting to feel some sort of power again in the moment, and if he ever tried to use them he would do it while he was alone. He sometimes (rarely, because he’s rarely ever truly mad,) used trying to do his diamond tricks in his Larimar form to let off steam.

…He eventually got out of that habit.

Short answer: lil bro was peeved that he got hella nerfed at the start and was NOT vibing with it

The mention of Chryscolla having a humanish system got me thinking... Do the rest of the group ever worry about James since he's half human?

His human half means he has things like bones that can break, and he won't just poof like the others if he's badly injured.

That combined with the fact that he can't breathe underwater plus them potentially needing to be somewhere in the middle of the ocean that can flood, that could be a recipe for disaster if they're not careful.

Yeah. The team focuses on their main objective on most missions, but since James is arguably the most physically vulnerable, keeping him relatively unharmed is like a subconscious priority. (Emphasis on relatively. It’s not like he’s not allowed to get bruises and cuts here and there.) I just drew this comic because the image came into my head as soon as I saw the ask and I went for it because it’s funny.

how is a perfect cut lapis different than a regular lapis? also squid lore.. how did he end up in stampy's court?

A perfect cut lapis is usually bigger than a regular lapis, containing darker and richer colors and a bunch more Pyrite in their form (the gold stuff in Lapises.) (Or can it be Lapi?)

as for the other question… I’d like to tell you a story about the Sun and the Moon. (Ft. Pre-rebellion Squid and his longer hair.)

(NOT A SHIP I REPEAT NOT A SHIP.)

The sun shone as bright as day, but his eyes were set on a moon. A little blue rock that broke out the Earth was nowhere near the prestige of the sun, but the sun didn’t care. The way the dust on that thing glittered in his rays and that warm smile on such a cold seeming gem was all the Sun needed. Every time the Moon and Sun were seen together, it created a spectacular show for all to see the science of opposites. The Moon and Sun told each other all their woes. The Moon was little and weak compared to the sun, but for once in the Sun’s court’s history, it felt like they didn’t need to worry about the caste system in place. Of course, the Sun had duties to do for the well-being of him and his Sibling’s empire, so he eventually helped rain down destruction on the Earth to end a terrible war. The Moon was so distraught it caused him to flee from the Sun, sticking close to the ruined Earth. His very emotions pulled the tides like a hurricane when it all happened, seeing his companions and kin, scattered and malformed, if not shattered into fine dust…

He would never forgive his radiant Sun for what he did.

And yet…

The Sun felt an empty void after the Moon fled, and the Moon wishes he didn’t feel the same.

…It’s been too long since the last eclipse.

I need asks for Squid, James, and Justin

Bro I’ve been overdeveloping on Dan/Larimar for GemCYT S-0 I’ve been doing the others SO DIRTY I NEED to develop more on the others

send me questions on Squid (who’s a lapis), James/ThxCya (who’s half human half emerald), and Justin (Blue Diamond’s Pearl) I need ideas brewing and I need questions to answer

Goobers but fused 2: Electric boogaloo

I decided to draw another fusion for GemCYT Sub-Zero, meet the 1/4 human fusion of Larimar and James: Chryscolla!

I know I broke the usual canon logic of half-human gem fusion from the canon show by 1: giving him humanoid skin tones mixed with gem skin tones, and 2: changing the color of James’s jacket and jeans, but it looks a hell of a lot more aesthetically pleasing.

A few fun facts:

-As mentioned above, he was the product of the first time both James and Larimar had ever fused with anyone. Ever. James was never brought up around fusion, and because diamonds had to be a role model, fusing was strictly prohibited unless it was with the other diamonds, and even that never happened.

-The first fusion was actually by accident, James was saving Dan and it happened in quick succession. They both freaked tf out when they realized.

-it’s a platonic/friendship based fusion, not romantic

-He can still use ice like Larimar can, just doesn’t do it as often.

-He still has a human-ish system. He can’t breathe underwater, and he has a heartbeat. He still bleeds too.

-If you ever find him talking to himself, it’s just Dan and James talking out loud to each-other

-whether his conscience is just James and Larimar muddled together or one singular being with traits of both is unclear.

-he still has the mask from James and uses it to pass as just a little more human.

OH MY GOD

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHG

SHADY OAKS IS COMING BACK AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
