Falling Universe: Introducing!
Peridot Cut-F1DL Facet-F0RD
Fiddleford was once a bright young Peridot, perhaps the most brilliant of those who'd been made in Era 2. Sure, he need enhancers, but he took to them easier than any before or after him - it was like machines sang to him.
He was even put in charge of a project on the Diamond's themselves knew the full scope of...
The Memory Gun.
Designed as an upgraded version of the Rejuvenator, it was being made for a single purpose: to erase all of who Bill used to be and bring him under the control of the Diamonds.
Sorry for the jump scare! This here is Fiddleford after his gem has been cracked! All his shades of green have been mixed up, his sanity is nowhere to be found, and his memory is constantly on the fritz. He managed to escape Homeworld, though no one (even he) quite knows how.
This is the state Stan encountered him in - and being the saint of a man he is, Stan took in poor Fiddleford. Partially because the crazed Peridot wouldn't leave him alone, constantly calling him 'Moony' - he'd obviously known Ford at some point, and had mistaken Stan for him.
Fiddleford was healed thanks to Bee's tech, but there was a cost... A scar of corruption is left in every gem Bee manages to heal, meaning they'd never again be who they once were.
Stan, of course, was just happy to finally be able to meet the Fiddleford he'd seen glimpses of before - the one he'd slowly fallen in love with over the centuries. When Fiddleford realized it had been Stan taking care of him all that time and not Ford, well...
He's taken to calling Stan 'My Sunshine' since he was healed.
