Backstory:
Blue Diamond was seen as flawless, but she had weaknesses. One just happened to be, she fell in love with a human.
It’s been years since Pink was ‘shattered’, and yet despite her rage towards the planet, Blue still came to the surface, in secret.
She’d just visit Pink’s old palanquin, that’s all.
But one day, something, a feeling she thought lost, urges her to go further.
She travels below the ocean floor, her movements not strived towards a point of destination.
She eventually makes it to the U.S.
It isn’t till she explores the area (forests, mountains, rivers) around her does she feel some sentiment that Rose had of this planet.
She decides to have a child. Not just for said child to experience the bound of peace she hasn’t felt since Pink was shattered, but for love.
Lets just say the dad isn’t in the picture.
Blue Pearl assembles her Pearl and a Ruby squadron to care for the child.
While the rest of Blue’s colony moves from Homeworld to the other side of Earth’s galaxy. A pair of twin planets they colonize as basically a gem community.
Of course their both a two days trip notice to Earth if needed.
To ‘fit in’ all of BD’s colonies gave themselves human names. It took awhile, since they all gave each other names starting with the first letter of their gem type.
Some did go beyond Earth names, some even went for Mandalorian if they could.
Which happen to lead to the clones of Kamino.
Of course Belle sends squadrons from the twin colonies (later named ‘Ocean’ and ‘Sea’ Colonies) to free the clones and kick Kamino butt.
Since most of BD colony is diplomacy, it’s easy to get galaxy rights and certification for all the clones.
They also heal and reverse the accelerated aging. And find the inhibitor chip and get it removed (helps arrest the Kaminoians + Dooku + Palpatine revel).
The Clone Wars has already been happening, so many clones get adopted by their Jedi generals.
And in turn, the oldest clones adopt the Cree baby Jedi kids in return.
Which also shuts down the ‘Jedi steal force sensitive kids from families’ rumor. They take in orphan force sensitive kids, and raise them. Only way they ‘take away’ said kids is if the family is toxic/abusive/dangerous. Which by then, a clone is likely to have adopted said kid by the time they reach the temple.
The Ocean & Sea colonies help restore old Jedi temples to be habitable once more, as well as get a planet for the clones to live and develop freely. Lots of support and resources come to said colonies from across the galaxies. Their very persuasive.
All this is all done by the time Steven & Alex are three years old.
The twin brothers meet one another at age one, but at 2 years old, Alex is kidnapped by Dooku.
Took a full month to find him, and despite the colonies be diplomats..they have been exploring other occupations too…and they all are part diplomats part fighters so…
Dooku gets arrested (no one mentioning the clear bruising and black eye as he’s handcuffed).
Palpatine goes into hiding, but not before vowing to obtain Alex and Steven, and use their diamond powers to make him unstoppable.
Aqua Squadron moves in with Belle and the squad to protect Alex (and Steven).
Belle makes another gem temple, underwater near Beach City.
It’s able to go above water so no one has to swim down deep to get in.
After that, the twins have their amazing childhood…until age 12.
Homeworld deals with the Crystal Gems two years earlier due to Belle and the colonies diplomat and other accomplishments.
Due to Alex’s early trauma and shy, quiet personality, Steven is a bit less hyper/naive than in canon.
So filter episodes like ‘Together Breakfast’ , ‘Frybo’ (Alex would of been TERRIFIED), ‘Onion Trade’, ‘Joking Victim’, ‘Steven & the Stevens’, ‘Secret Team’, ‘Garnet’s Universe’, ‘Future Vision’ (Alex kind of suspected Garnet was a fusion. I mean he’s meet many Sapphires on the colony planets, and he literally lives with a group of Rubies.)
Minus ‘Serious Steven’ (If anything it’s more serious than humor) & ‘The Test’
Lapis gets out of the mirror earlier thanks to Belle recognizing said gem.
Eyeball doesn’t hate Steven as in canon (more dislike till PD discovery). Alex though she likes (but would rather shatter than admit it).
Instead of Greg getting kidnapped by BD, everyone just goes on vacation to the Naboo Jedi Temple (let’s pretend there’s been one since forever or if anything was built by the Sea and Ocean colonies cause why not.)
Steven & Alex celebrate their 15th birthday there.
The Bad Batch just happens to be there at the time, and so love at first sight for Alex.
One year later the twins head to Homeworld.
Same thing mostly, only Yellow instead of Blue so…more YD screen time!
White Diamond fight happens…but instead of Steven it’s Alex that get his gem taken out. Alex pushed Steven out of the way so yeah.
The Bad Batch just happen to be on Earth when Steven sends the SOS message from Watermelon Steven. Yeah…they have some questions about that, but first they head to Homeworld with Bismuth, Belle, Peridot, Lapis, and the Aqua Squad.
Unlike canon, they do make it to see WD pull out Alex’s gem and well…
While Bismuth, Lapis, and Peridot try to free the Crystal Gems, Aqua Squadron helps Connie & Steven, and the Bad Batch go after WD.
By this time, the squad has been video chatting/texting with Steven & Alex (+Connie) and have all really gotten close over the past couple of months.
Crosshair tries to shoot WD in the diamond, but Bismuth reminds him they aren’t shatters.
“You’re not, but I will if that giant keeps mocking me with Alex’s gem like that.”
He eventually, reluctantly stands down and instead helps Alex reunite with his gem half.
Unlike canon, there is indeed a hole where the gem is on Alex, graphic as you can imagine, in simplification.
Alex becomes whole, Steven throws that one line that of course Wrecker & Amethyst joke with him later about, and happy ending all around.
Crosshair may of definitely kissed Alex in private at the celebration party back on Earth.
Age 16, Spinel comes to Earth, but by then a couple of Jedi have worked to have a Jedi-Earth education club (Connie of course joins as she’s already made one of gems and is president of) and so the drill is dealt with earlier.
As for Spinel…we’ll mostly canon aside from the drill. So the Spinel final fight up in the sky/in the ocean.
Alex was on a mission with the Bad Batch, 212th, and 501st at the time (mainly babysitting Luke & Leia who are born earlier. Anakin left the order after Palpatine’s defeat and lives on Naboo as a mechanic. But he still has his saber just in case.) managed to come back and help Steven by the concert canon scene.
Yes they were all confused of the whole scenario despite Steven’s explanation later.
White and Yellow come down and yeah Spinel goes with them same as canon.
By the time the twin’s 17th birthdays are coming near, is when Steven goes through his PTSD and more event.
Alex is able to stop him from shattering Jasper (but just barely), but gets poofed as a result.
Crosshair & Alex become a couple by this time.
A couple weeks pass, and Steven decides to hit the road as Connie heads to college.
She also has a internship as a diplomat, becoming later the head of the Gem-Earth senate party in later years.
Steven becomes an artist. Withh the help of the gems, Alex, and Connie, makes the history of his life, the Gem war, and more in a graphic novel series (basically the show/movie but comic form).
Alex goes on to become a writer, writing multiple novels after co-writing with Steven on his. He also travels with the Bad Batch on a couple a mission every other month, which mainly consist of bounty hunters, assassins, or natural disaster cleanup (slavery has already been abolished long time by now so yeah).
Trivia:
Loves oranges.
Hates avocados
Insomniac ever since the kidnapping
Has been known to do all nighters, worse than Tech
Is vegetarian.
Can’t resist a good vanilla milkshake.
Loves a good, warm blanket.
Likes to wear Crosshair’s armor in secret (and by that, Crosshair knows but let’s it slide cause the view is just amazing)
Very insecure about his body, especially his chest cause gem and all.
He’s not overweight mind you, but has a bit belly you know?
When nervous, pinches the sides of his chest (has caused bruising in the past).
Crosshair will not give up until Alex sees what he sees, perfection.
Will especially hiss/fight anyone who says otherwise (A couple of regs walking along and whispering such hate? Crosshair will go all out.)
Alex can’t stand intense hot weather despite living in Beach City most of his life, yet is better than most in extreme cold
Only swims with his shirt off if it’s just him and Crosshair.
Crosshair can’t get enough of Alex, both body and mind, and when the shirt comes off, he’s practically feral.
While fluent in all Earth languages, he can’t write any but English. But speak and understand? No problem.
While going on a couple of missions with the BB every now and then, he always tries to find some sort of gift/trinkets to give to Crosshair.
His brothers think it’s adorable and tease Crosshair always.
Crosshair vows when they all get lovers to do 10x worst to them.
But keeps every gift in a secret spot on the ship.
Doesn’t curse as much as Crosshair, but when he does, you know sh*t is about to go down.
