I Need Asks For Squid, James, And Justin

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

Oh yeah that makes sense, especially since James(?) doesn't have natural healing?? So it's natural the S-0 Gems would be cautious for him. I'm sure he appreciates it deep down.

But now that we KNOW this... any hurt/comfort moments where he actually got significantly hurt and scared the gems?

Figured I’d answer this one in a text/one-shot since I have zero idea what to draw for this ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (For reference, Larimar kinda flip flops around being called by his gem name or just Dan. Also I’m not that good at writing battles soooo…)

It was supposed to be just a simple mission. In and out, 20 minute adventure.

God forbid anything goes as planned.

But James knew he could handle it. He always has. He earned himself a few scratches and cuts already, but that never stopped him before. Why now?

James, Squid, and Dan embarked on a small mission to a colony-turned-(now abandoned-) rebel safehouse. Justin found what seemed to be an SOS signature in the area, and the three volunteered to go check if there were any gems still in one piece… or not corrupted. It was rare to see more than one gem going into a mission that menial, but none of them could agree on who would go, so they all went.

it turned out that signature was a faulty reading. There wasn’t a single live gem in the area, just shards and the corrupted.

speaking of the corrupted, the place was crawling with them. Combine that with the sharp, slimy, parasitic nuisances that are Crystal Shrimp, and before the squad knew it, they were surrounded.

“Stars, just HOW many Crystal Shrimp are crawling in this place!? I’m half convinced there’s a neat nearby,” Squid exclaimed, using water to slam a corrupted gem into a nearby wall.

“THAT’S what you’re worried about!?” Dan yelled as he poofed a few smaller ones, their gems clinking onto the ground like dropped jewelry. He took the time to bubble them and send them off before going to the next enemy.

“Yeah, like, they’re so small, how could these things hurt yo-AGH! GET OFF!” James scoffed before jumping back as a shrimp bit him in the ankle. He was so busy getting the swarm off of him and keeping them from chewing through his jacket, that once he got the last one off, he was painfully launched into a wall and pinned there by a large quartz monster. He was gonna feel that one in the morning.

“JAMES! Hang on, give me a second!” Larimar struggled while fighting his own beasts, but got an opening to fire a projectile of ice into the quartz’s leg. It simply shook it off as if it was just some dust bunny on its fur, but turned back to James and slashed his shoulder before trying to bite him. He held back the creature’s powerful jaws with his Destabilizer Rod.

“Nrrgh-! Bad gem! Bad gem!”

James kicked it back before getting on top of it and trying to wrangle it to stay still. It was a dumb idea but the only idea available. It thrashed him about as he desperately gripped on its thick hide.

“Guys!! A little help here!?”

Squid ran over and let his water tentacles get a firm grip on it, but not before the monster bucked James off and drove him into the ground. While squid attempted to hold it back, he motioned for Dan to check on James. “Are you alright?- Oh stars, you’re bleeding!” Dan freaked out in concern as he helped an extremely battered and bruised James to his feet.

“I- I’m fine… I’m good…” James mumbled in a half- daze.

“You’re clearly not. Just let us finish this off and you sit out.”

“What? No! You guys can’t take that thing on alone!”

“DAN’S RIGHT, JAMES! WE’VE GOT THIS UNDER CONT-“ Squid was cut off by being thrown to the side by the large quartz.

James huffed, but then picked up his staff and said, “screw it.”

“James, don’t you DARE-“ Dan tried to stop him, but James was already too close to the beast. He toughed through numerous slashes towards him and flanked the beast. He dug the operating end of his destabilizer rod into the hide of the beast, holding strong as he was thrashed around, until finally, it poofed.

Larimar and Squid immediately ran to James, and their gems nearly shut down when they saw he was bleeding, scratched everywhere, and wasn’t moving.

“James!? JAMES!? No no no, c’mon, wake up, buddy!” Squid said as he tried to shake him awake, but to no avail. Dan checked his pulse.

“He’s still alive, just unconscious.” Dan confirmed and both gems let out a sigh of relief, that is before that relief turned to annoyance.

“What the hell was he thinking!? He could’ve died!” Squid growled.

“We’ll talk to him about it later,” Larimar gently picked him up (bridal style, which is the way he subconsciously picks everyone up, but never associates it with love,) “For now, we take him back to base and let Taaffetite deal with him.”

“Yeah, Tiff’s always got the best stuff for humans and gems, I think she can handle him if he’s a mix. So who do you think she’s gonna be more mad at when we drag him back home, him or us? I’d say him.”

“Don’t bet on it.” Dan chuckled softly.

FIRST ART FOR A REALLY SELF INDULGENT NEW SHADY OAKS AU, GO!

@sweetest-honeybee and I were talking about starting a monster/hybrid au for Shady Oaks SMP, and she gave me the idea to have Dan be a Gargoyle, so kudos to Bee! (Even better bc gargoyles originate from England I think.)

No writing version:

I don’t think the wings are to-scale, but it’s aiight.

Also my original inspiration for this au comes from @bluegiragi COD monster 141 au. Only go check it out if you’re 18+ though, it does have adult content. (Learned that the hard way but a great au nonetheless 😅)

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.
