Back in 2018, I created my own Diamond OC for Steven Universe. I drew her like 2-3 times then forgot all about her until recently. I got the idea to redraw her and her Pearl and sort of locked in for a while, as I wanted to expand on the AU a bit more. So here's the lore of Violet Diamond.

She represents the exhausted eldest daughter of a toxic household. Violet had developed the same core beliefs as the Crystal Gems long before they became a thing. She had grown to deeply dislike Homeworld's customs, which was a major factor in her decision to leave. The only Diamond she was still on good terms with was Pink.

Her gem was meant to be on her neck but it turned out goofy, so I had it reflected on her Pearl. Although Violet left Homeworld with most of her Division, she kept contact and her contributions at the bare minimum, so her symbol was still present. Her absence was felt thanks to her appearances being so rare.

Her throne was empty while her original ship was left abandoned. Because of her own powers regarding Negation, White's powers don't work on her, so Violet didn't have to worry about falling to her control.

Before leaving Homeworld, her first 4 planets were fully colonized. In time, the colonizations significantly reduced with each planet until the next 6 were left alone. Violet became a conservationist instead, appreciating the natural beauty of those worlds even if they weren't inhabited. I included the original 2018 version for comparison.

Violet would return to Homeworld for the first time in thousands of years for the events of 'The Trial'. She'd be addressed as either the 'radiant' or 'shimmering' Violet Diamond. Her Pearl would record the trial. On an extra note, Violet would have no hostility toward Steven, but more of a calm curiosity. To her, his presence was very similar to Pink's. Everything about the shattering felt off and suspicious to her, and she only ever shared those thoughts with her Pearl in private.

All Violet wanted was answers to what really happened, so she was left at an absolute loss when Yellow poofed the Zircons in retaliation.

As she's still not on speaking terms with White, Yellow, and Blue, Violet would take her leave soon afterwards to gather her thoughts.

And this is everything I got so far. I'll include an update if I decide to add more stuff in the future.

What do you get when you combine candy-themed racing with an 80s vaporwave aesthetic? Something I call Sugar Rush 1984. The year is in reference to when MC starts school in HPHM and honestly, I like the title. I am planning on adding some of the other students to expand on the roster later on.

Azulon Razzblue

Age: 11

Theme: Blue Raspberry candy

Kart: Blue Storm

Racing Track: Blue Razzlantic Ocean

Calm, intelligent and observant, Azulon is a normal happy kid with an interest in poetry. While he’s fine with socializing and making friends, he also enjoys time to himself where he can spend it either working on poems, or doing some stargazing to clear his head.

Redgina Velvetine

Age: 11

Theme: Red Velvet

Kart: Velvet Rose

Racing Track: Crystal Beach

Kind, empathetic, friendly and loyal, Redgina is one energetic gal. She understands the value of hard work and in her downtime, she likes to do some baking of her own and gift sweets to all her friends. Her family runs the game’s Kart Bakery.

If your MC was in Sugar Rush, what would their candy theme(s) be?

Some backstory to this project below:

I know another idea I had was regarding Ricardo: as it’s through his Dream Magic that Reina and friends would be having races in candy karts in the Dream World, as it didn’t follow the rules of reality to begin with. Ricardo would eventually become a game developer to create a candy-themed racing game that rivaled Mario Kart, using the Dream World as inspiration.

What ensued was 6 months of on and off hard work to not only see how far I’ve improved in terms of art, but also my attempts to stick to projects without forgetting about them halfway through. I’m glad to say that this current batch had been fully completed and I look forward to making more in the future. All 12 karts were completed first, followed by the kids.

Talbott was the very first one that popped to mind when I decided to jump back into Sugar Rush. Around that time I also made a post asking for ideas on what his personality would’ve been like if he never lost his parents, and this was why. This is nothing more than a fun AU of candy-themed kids driving around in racing karts made out of sweets in a candy world.

This Talbott is just a normal happy kid, who while he’s fine with socializing and making friends, he also likes time to himself and has a growing interest in poetry. I gave him blue raspberries as his theme since I always had this headcanon that it was his favorite candy flavor.

Reina herself is nearly identical to her 11-year old counterpart, moreso since she doesn’t have a missing older brother to find this time around. The same will apply to the others I’ll add later on. I already got the candy ideas but I’m stuck on who they’d fit the most.

Finally broke my month-long art block and gave in to the urge to draw Transformers despite my near non-existent experience.

Her name is Prisma and I drew a different variant of her once before. She'll have her own separate tags.

[avidrawsthings]

First drawing of the new year featuring best girl enjoying giant strawberries.

Wanted to combine messy doodles to ease myself back to drawing after my extended break, along with bits of lore relating to her background. There's a popular orchard owned by a family of Giants that grows large versions of fruits, with the variety depending on the season. It's a massive hit in the community.

Silly thing featuring the 1970s Trio and their own Slytherin nuisance: Antonious Rust-Thorne

More info about the discount Malfoy here

No, it's not an act. Yes, he gets worse as he gets older. Pray for Duncan. And yes, Ricardo is supposed to look utterly dead inside as he's still early in his depression arc.

Wanted to practice making comic pages again, so I went with these two. In my Snyde Twins AU, this was how Mavis handled the news that Reina was going to dual enroll to Hogwarts. There were 2 more pages attached but I feel this gets the point across well enough.

Mavis' backstory was already explained in her profile post here.

The green on Reina's uniform represents her connection to Flora Magic, which is where her Rose Magic originates from.

[avidrawsthings]

The sisters ever. It's been one day and Mavis is already so done.

I was very tipsy when drawing this but I still find it funny.

Part of my Twin Snydes au, which you can read more about here and in Mavis' profile here.

Meet Talbot and Reina's children, 2024 edition:

While most of their core details remain the same, I gave them an overdue update to reflect the current changes to the au. As a whole:

The kids were born in the Three Broomsticks during the Battle of Hogwarts (long story lol)

Because of their vast Magic, they were approved to start Hogwarts one year early, so they're a year younger than most of their classmates during the events of Magic Awakened.

Like Reina, they're dual enrolled at Vytaria, so they only take core classes at Hogwarts.

They inherited their mother's ability to detect people's true emotions and intentions, so they're well aware of who to avoid.

Their individual info will be below.

Corvo Winger

He/Him

Slytherin

The music kid

Oldest of the four. Due to the Chimerism that runs in his mother's side of the family, he fused with what would've been their 5th sibling.

He's known to give of a very cool kid vibe, is usually calm and collected and easy to get along with.

Corvo is Narcoleptic and prone to sleeping a lot. He can still retain info while asleep, which proves to be a big help during classes.

From an early age he has always loved music, and manifests Symphony Magic when he's older. His spells are said to have a musical beat to them.

His signature green discs are created from Magic, allowing him to create beats that enhance the spells of his own as well as allies, and can disorient opponents.

Explored different musical instruments, and his favorites are the violin and piano.

Ava Winger

She/Her

Gryffindor

The athletic kid

Second oldest of the four

Loves food and is almost always snacking on something in between meals. Would manifest Food Magic as one of her types.

Was always the most energetic of her siblings, and was already fast as soon as she could crawl.

During early childhood, she played all kinds of sports. Her top favorite is skating, and she was taught by her mom how to transfigure her shoes into skates. Ava is usually seen skating around the castle.

Bonded with Robyn almost immediately. The two would then try out for Quidditch in their second year, and Ava herself becomes a Chaser.

Raven Winger

She/Her

Ravenclaw

The baking kid

Second youngest of the four.

Raven was born on the Autism Spectrum and her biggest focus at an early age was baking. She often helped her mom out in the kitchen as soon as she was old enough to, and would manifest Food Magic.

At Hogwarts, she often spends most of her downtime in the kitchens baking.

Thanks to her quiet and reserved nature, she found herself becoming good friends with Daniel. She'd often give him sweets during times he'd stay up late brewing potions.

She often sells her sweets to any classmate or staff member interested, much like Reina once did during her school days. Named her mini business The Witching Flour.

Altair Winger

He/Him

Hufflepuff

The art kid

The youngest of the four

The most sensitive of his siblings, and was always prone to crying whether he was sad or happy.

Always loved drawing for as long as he could remember, and his favorites were markers. As he gets older, he loves to work with all kinds of inks, manifesting Ink Magic.

He's often seen with his sketchbook and ink case. At school, he becomes fast friends with Lottie thanks to their shared love of art.

Combines Ink and Paper Magic to create colorful paper sculptures. He'll sometimes leave smaller creations around the castle and grounds for folks to find.
