Lion from SU in Pokemon style

Pokemon has had more than one art style so I tried to go for both extremes.

I guess this becomes a collector's item now.

Pink Pearl and Amethyst :>

send me a character and i’ll list the following

(I’ll do Pink Pearl in this post and Amethyst in her own post so it doesn’t get too long.)

Pink Pearl / Volleyball

Favorite thing about them

Wow she’s cute. I would die for every Pearl! There’s some potentially complex factors driving her characterization which I’m into.

Least favorite thing about them

The show had no reason to give her more screen time but also if there was a spinoff that was just about pearls I’d watch it in a heartbeat. Not enough her. I want more her.

Favorite line

Her insisting she’s fine as her face cracks more for Big Irony is up there, but I also really loved the initial exchange between her and Pearl about 

Well, I was her pearl o:^)

SO WAS I !!! :^)

I love your energy, it reminds me of when I was younger. o:^)))))))) 

I’m older than you :^)))))))))))))))

Something about this conversation really fits with the headcanons I have about pearls and their own culture being steeped in this enormous sense of subtlety and passivity and tbh I would pay anybody cash-money to ask me frequently and at length about my extensive lore for pearls as a gem subspecies.

BROTP

I’d honestly like to see her become friendly with Bismuth or some of the amethysts. Idk if that’s weird, but I think by nature she is a very playful gem and would benefit from knowing gems who encourage those traits even though pearls are socialized away from behavior like that. I also think she’s friendly with the other pearls. They’re a little bird clique.

OTP

Her and CG Pearl I guess. We ship volleypearl in this house. Seeing both of their character arcs get a nice resolution that handles the topic of Rose with a level of nuance was cathartic for me. But also like, whatever, all the gems may as well be poly in my mind, they can all kiss, it’s fine.

NOTP

I’ll be real with you idk what bad choices the fandom is making with her but if I find one I’ll tell you about it.

Random headcanon

Pink Pearl is an honest to god agent of chaos in her purest form. She is a gem who under ideal circumstances isn’t afraid to say what she means and to start shit. She really loves playing and practical joking and the only reason that isn’t immediately apparent is because she’s spent her life being a pearl first and an individual second.

Unpopular opinion

I have a hard time characterizing her as this delicate flower who has never done anything wrong and whose single identity in life is victim even though i occasionally see her characterization distilled down to that in fanon content. Obviously every pearl is different and everybody is welcome to their interpretation, but I honestly expect it’s fairly common that a lot of pearls bottle up their emotions due to how they've been socialized.  I’ve honestly always imagined Pink Pearl as a gem with a lot of nerve and whose emotional health has been so poorly managed prior to the present day that often difficult feelings come out unexpectedly and in ways that put others off.  I think Pink Pearl has a lot of very ugly emotions that she isn’t proud and I think when those emotions spill out it’s often very sudden and sometimes very messy. She has outburts, to parallel some existing language in the fandom. It doesn’t make her a bad person or an abuser, but sometimes it makes her hard to be around.  The process of healing is like that sometimes.

Song I associate with them

I found a song while stumbling around JP Youtube recently called Soshite Hana Ni Naru and for whatever reason this song has instantly become a Pink Pearl song for me??? I can’t give the clearest translation of what the song is about bc after years of studying Japanese I still basically suck but the impression I get from the parts I do understand is that the singer is struggling over the memories of a past relationship. She is moving past this thing that caused her pain even if she might have some nostalgia for a time when her life and worldview was simpler.

But uhh part of the reason I associate it so much with Pink Pearl is because of the stuff I said above about Pink Pearl really bottling up her emotions and setting aside her needs and having those things come out in ways that are a little less dignified than what you’d expect of a pearl. The vocalist for this song, Kaf has a very delicate high pitch to her voice but I really like how raw some of her songs get. Specifically the ones that sound a little less produced. There’s something that feels very Pink Pearl to me in the way this artists sings when the content is reaching its emotional peak.  In some of the more powerful parts of a track it can sometimes sound like her voice is becoming shrill and might break because of how she’s pushing it. I think there’s something really beautiful about singing that gives the impression of being raw, sincere, or unfiltered and it suits the way I think of Pink Pearl handling her grief and her frustration. It represents a process that has a lot of value but can be deeply painful and doesn’t necessarily look conventionally pretty.

Favorite picture of them

Rebecca sugar has this extremely sweet picture of her on her Instagram that I love

3 -- what's your favorite flower? And 5 -- What's the most beautiful word in the English Language? :>

You really think I can answer either of these questions when they’re both basically “choose 1 out of a billion options?” You overestimate my power.

I like clover, and english plantains.  Hemlock flowers are pretty good and fleabane looks silly. You know, ugly stuff I see outside.

As for words I struggle to even narrow it down, but I tend to like two syllable words. Give me soft, gentle, low energy words.

Snufkin vibes

Tell me what character I have the same energy as

This is a god tier take and I owe you my life.

[corvidry]

U should do Amethyst on this ask instead.

send me a character and i’ll list the following

Part 2 of this ask. Thank you for sending me another ask to put Amethyst on I was just gonna make a separate post lol

Amethyst

Favorite thing about them

I don’t want to say she’s not complex because that’s not what I mean, but I think Amethyst’s character arc is possibly the most simple and easy to understand no matter where you are in life or what your experiences are.  She’s a character whose journey has a lot of universal appeal imo. You can’t help but relate to Amethyst’s problems and root for her. She’s extremely well written and a lot of the subtle aspects of her writing go wildly underappreciated.

Least favorite thing about them

There really isn’t a lot about most of the characters I don’t like, I’m gonna be real with you.

Favorite line

Hard choice because Amethyst has some stellar one liners.  “Wait, can Steven fly? Yeah, I think I remember that.” *enters the house, and exits again a few seconds later* “No no, I'm thinking of Lapis!”

BROTP

The Famethyst, of course. Idk, Amethyst has the unique ability to be bros with most people.

OTP

Again, in my heart of hearts I don’t have strong OTP requirements for most of them because poly exists.  I do live and die by some of the pearlmethyst art people are posting  The key to getting me to ship damn near anything is to post art good enough.

NOTP

I’m not into shipping any of the gems with Steven

Random headcanon

Amethyst had a better relationship with humans earlier in her life than Garnet or Pearl. There’s a ton of context and nuance in human things that just doesn’t click for the other two the same way it does for her, and Amethyst has long enjoyed not explaining human things to them just to watch what dumb conclusions they come to.  I also think that Amethyst is a big reason why the main gems have preferences in human music. Before her that they kept their interactions with humans kind of limited.

Unpopular opinion

What are unpopular opinions about Amethyst? I don’t actually know what those would be or if anything I think about her is unpopular.

Song I associate with them

I had a crush on a girl in high school who reminds me a lot of Amethyst and anyway she was really into P!nk at the time so if I ever hear Don’t Let Me Get Me, that song feels very Amethyst to me. :^)

Favorite picture of them

Idk probably this one
