What do you think Amethyst and Peridot are up to these days?

Trying to minimize some horror: If Hordak’s hair is bleached as part of the reconditioning process and later his memories and personality are returned as part of the girl’s plan to escape Prime. Picture his face when he comes back to himself and notices the hair. He’s annoyed by this development, but refuses to voice it in front of his current audience. He redyes it at the first opportunity. The others can't help but notice. It’s a really obvious change. Tempting to tease his vanity. They don't.

If it turns out that he actually does dye his hair, I look forward to everyone’s reactions upon learning that he does this.

But by the by: my horror isn’t specifically due to the hair color change. It’s more... I’ve written before about how disturbing it was to me to learn that Hordak didn’t install his ports himself, that they were put there to control him. Against his will. The hair is an extension of that.

I’m continuously distressed by the knowledge that he is powerless to control what happens to him, even in terms of his own body. Especially now that I’m rewatching from season one, and he seems so powerful and untouchable.

Ah, I have Emotions about this man.

Writer asks: Silver

Silver: Are you comfortable writing in public places?

oh god, it depends on what i’m writing??? and how public??

I wrote the first chapter of Last Resort on a train, but I was in the last seat with no one next to me and also was writing on my phone 

I wrote another chapter of that one on a plane, on my laptop--but my then-boyfriend was next to me and I had the window seat, plus I turned the text pale pink! 

I keep meaning to set up my laptop in a coffee shop and try writing there but I haven’t yet!

12 Days of Ficmas Recs Day 7

Your Favourite Series

Title: Home, not Homeword

Author:  Mage-Cat (AO3), @mage-cat (Tumblr) 

Fandom: Steven Universe

Pairing: Amedot

Rating: G, mostly, one’s rated T

Summary: A take on Peridot’s redemption arc written before we got hers. She learns about Earth and herself.

Why I Rec This Fic: I love Peri-demption fics and this series is way up there for my favourite takes on a Peri-demption. For one thing it has my OTP. :p But seriously, I thoroughly enjoy Mage-Cat’s writing. The sweet moments between Amethyst and Peridot were so so great. And it was great seeing Peridot discover herself and things she enjoyed.

A pokemon that's like Mr. Protocol? I'm going to have to go with Klang. Pure clockwork,

A cog in a machine. 

Fitting.

What would be worse: you becoming a werewolf or Chen becoming a werewolf?

Chen. 100% Chen. Because I probably won’t remember being a wolf and I probably won’t be afraid of myself when I’m in wolf form. Chen, on the other hand, would be terrifying. 

She is already very dangerous and scary.

For Halloween, ever considered being Huckleberry Hound?

mage-cat replied to your post “The only way I can reasonably see Steven Universe continuing is if...”

So you're not interested in seeing how Beach City/Earth is going to react to a huge influx of Gems or seeing Lapis and Jasper finally deal with the fallout of the Malachite thing? SU has always been a show about the characters more than cosmic conflict.

I would be interested in it but they way they ended the episode just seemed too closed, they dont really have much in terms of story they can pull off. Every other season final had some sort of open ended-ness to them. Jail Break ended with the distress call from Connie, by Log Date 7 15 2 we already knew Yellow Diamond was a thing, Bubbled gave more evidence to Pink Diamond being Rose Quartz (as well as the fact that we knew the Diamonds were a threat by then), I Am My Mom ended with Steven going to space. Battle of Heart and Mind had nothing that it could set up for.  I would love to be wrong but the only way I can feasibly see it going forward would be something with Emerald who i forgot even existed till like 20 mintues ago.
