Nuummite Is Pretty Cautious Of That Orange Gem Over There-- Aaaaa Thank You For Drawing Her, Dude!!!!!

Finally made a boo for my element swap au Fluttershy! The minotaur/centaur hybrid; Prairie Confidence!

Prairie Confidence runs a circus that comes to Ponyville one day and “challenges” Rarity for her entertainment spot; giving Rarity's rainbow item instead of Coco Pommel. She playfully flirts with the shy mare in the audience when she's announcing an act. It was just supposed to be playful banter. But, after the show, she started sending letters to Rarity and, eventually, the cute pegasus she flirted with. Fluttershy eventually starts getting secret admirer letters. She thinks it's all a joke. As, who could adore the grim mare who lives in a graveyard and buries bunnies? This all comes to a head when Prairie returns to Ponyville to admit her crush and finds Fluttershy angry at the letters. Who dare play with her heart like this? Shenanigans ensue. But, eventually, the two figure things out (thanks to Discord and the Cutie Mark Crusaders) and start to date.

Prairie Confidence is a very boisterous, loud woman. She loves to entertain and draw attention to herself, and make ponies smile. It's better than them staring in horror at her oddity. Her talent is showmanship.

Day 2: Sinensis as a “formal apology”

@itstanzaniteuniverse replied to this post:

What's the permafrost defect?

The permafrost defect is something I created for gem kind that I think would be cool.

When a gem is injected into a new colony, there could be undetectable permafrost in the ground. This is generally something that is not found until the kindergarten is mostly completed with gems already injected and cannot be fixed.

Injector fluid wraps around the ice and begins to form a gem. This makes it so that there is ice inside the gemstone when they emerge.

This ice causes erasures in a gem's coding. A gem cannot loose base abilities every gem has; fusion, shapeshifting, etc. However, a gem can loose things that are unique to that gem type. The standard form the gem has could be radically different, they could loose unique abilities (like being unable to use hydrokenisis), and they could be a totally different color than that gem type is usually. They could also loose their base coding, being barren like Amethyst was. It is rare, but a gem could also gain new abilities totally unique to them!

If a gem is born with a permafrost defect, they are taken to be judged for their usefulness in gem society. If they are judged to be useful, they are given a role that fits their use- sometimes different to what their normal use is. If they are judged to be not useful, they are sent to be shattered.

This is due to Yellow Diamond's right hand, Brimstone, having a permafrost defect and being kept.

Gems are generally considered lower class and "off color" when they are born with this defect.

Gems I have with this defect include Brimstone, loosing her base abilities, and Angelite, simply a different color than standard Angelites.

If you want to use this defect, go ahead! Just tag me so I can see what you came up with 👀

Time for Element swap au Twilight Maelstrom, the element of Loyalty, and her lovely future cat wife, Lovely Grace!

Twilight does not talk about her childhood. For, it was a time she’d rather not revisit mentally. She was raised on the streets of Canterlot. She does not know what her family was like, for she was raised initially in an orphanage that had no records of who her biological family was. All she knew was the blood tests, which reveal a mixed heritage of kirin, thestral, and donkey. 

Twilight quickly learned her mixed-blood was not appealing the average Canterlot noble, and went to the streets as a young filly. It was best she learned the ways of the streets now, before she was subject to them suddenly as soon as she became legal. 

She was scooped up by Canterlot’s underbelly and learned the ways of crime. Even if she was a child, the gang she found was mostly earth ponies and pegasi, which were looked down upon in Canterlot. A unicorn was needed for any magic escapes needed. Even if she was a child.

During her time on the streets, she found that the “crime lords” weren’t necessarily “evil” as she had been taught at the orphanage. Rather, they were misunderstood and merely labeled as criminals for their appearance, race, or talents. 

One day, her gang was arrested for “kidnapping” a foal. That foal being Twilight of course. Twilight rushed to her gang’s aid and went before Celestia herself. Spouting the injustices and kindness this gang had shown her more than any other pony had in her life. Celestia was moved by the plight of these ponies and started programs to help those in similar situations not turn to crime, and to eliminate not unicorn racism in canterlot. She knows it will take many generations to undo years of hate, but it will be worth it. Celestia also gave them all jobs in the castle as an apology for her guard’s rashness. 

Including Twilight. 

Twilight was given the duty to watch the underground of Canterlot. For, she seemed to know it best. She helped those who chose a life of crime; whether it be through carefully getting them back onto their feet- or making sure their “crimes” just weren’t harmful to the public at large. Any drugs they had were in a reasonable range, their influence isn’t reaching terrible heights, they aren’t physically or mentally harming anypony, or any other number of things.

This is what her cutie mark represents; her ability to help balance lawful and unlawfulness, and keep things in check. In harmony, if you will. 

Twilight is still sent to Ponyville during the thousandth summer sun celebration because Celestia has a hunch that she was one of the new wielders of the elements of harmony after she found she could no longer wield them. 

Lovely Grace was born in Abyssinia, like most catfolk. She heard tales of Equestria, a place where friendship was magic and things would be better than her harsh, dingy village. She moved there as soon as she had enough coin, and opened a tailor shop in the cheapest spot she could find; Ponyville. She was so happy to be among these bright and friendly ponies, she even changed her name to a more “ponyish” name. She is chipper, bright, optimistic, and loves and trusts anyone. Twilight will end you if you hurt her.

hey kitty, look, you can finally fuck yourself

Kitty friends 

I’d like to introduce the Wilted Rose AU! These are the main players in this au (plus a few more gems I haven’t gotten designs down for yet). More info under the cut!

Padparascha came out perfect. That is the main difference. Padparadscha came out perfect and was immediately brought before the three diamonds (Pink was elsewhere) to show her wisdom. After all, no Sapphire had been born perfect before. 

There, she gave a vision that shook the diamonds to their core: Pink Diamond will rebel and bring about the end of gem culture as we know it. White Diamond immediately told Pink she would "test her patience". She was to wait, alone, until the Diamonds came and retrieved her. 

 After this, Pink Diamond was nothing more than a fairy tale to most gems. The only evidence she existed was a memorial garden in the very corner of a Blue Diamond galaxy. 

Thousands of years later, Pink is found again by a Peridot conducting warp tests, and suddenly Pink has a group of friends willing to help her get back into society. And maybe even back at her fellow Diamonds.....

A few tid bits what changes there are to gems:

Padparascha is perfect, obviously. 

Pink Pearl was released from White Diamond’s grasp and reset. She was given to Padparascha for warning the Diamonds of the rebellion. Padparascha kept her mostly the way she was. For her Diamond’s eventual return.

Peridot is still short as, due to the lack of a fourth diamond, there is still a lack of resources. 

Crystal Gem Pearl is reset and given to Blue Diamond as a way to remember the littlest Diamond.

Sapphire comes out off color due to the persistent “ice” (it’s actually an unformed sapphire gem she formed around) stuck in her eye. But she can easily mask as non defective for “missions”, such as sneaking defects off the chopping block and getting them somewhere safe.

Amethyst is one of the few gems who hangs out around Sapphire, having still stayed in the ground too long. They fuse occasionally. There is no Garnet. 

Spinel was in the ground when Pink was sent away. She was sent to manage the memorial garden as soon as she emerged. No friends for this Spinel....

Lapis Lazuli lost a lot of rank after her former best friend and love interest Aquamarine told the Dimaonds about a rule the Lazuli had broken. Lapis was stationed at the memorial garden, to forever be stuck watering plants instead of being free to terraform.

I’m A Shadow Of Myself

This sickness I'm afflicted with Has got my brain decaying

I know my God has damned me. My fate remains unmolded! Guess it runs in the family. My sense of self; corroded!

My blackened blood is boilin', I feel my fear no more. The scent of dead flesh spoilin', Have I become a corpse? - Now, you know the price, Gotta pay it now! If you have a life, Time to lay it down! Heed not the voice of reason, It only tells you lies! Obey your sins and demons Then see through evil's eyes!

I think Hitchcock might have some rebellion in his past too.... :3c

Asfgjllhgdss Red Diamond is there!! Thank you so much for drawing her I??? Ffhjklllgfd,,,,

Long time no art post! (I swear I’m still alive). To celebrate Gemsona-HQ’s six year anniversary, I opened up gemsona requests for the first time in years. I originally planned to only pick a few and do very basic doodles, but I got way too enthusiastic seeing everyone’s gemsona designs and, well, here we are. :’D Better late than never, I suppose! I also got really excited when I realized I could turn this into a gemsona rainbow.

If you’d like a full-sized version of your drawing, feel free to send me a message. (Please give me credit if you use the image as an icon / header / whatever. Thanks!)

Trying to write everyone’s url got messy, so owners are listed below in order: 

Keep reading

🤔

Just thought I'd say for everyone since someone asked privately- Unless I specifically say in the description the gem is one of a kind or something like that (ex- Brimstone, Skull Star); please feel free to make your own versions of any gems I design! Just please be sure to credit me for the original concept n stuff. And if you wanna make fan fusions or fan art, feel free to submit em to me!
