A Cut Above The Rest (Steven Universe Series x Reader)

Cheeseburger Backpack

It opens on beach near Crystal Temple. Steven is seen sitting on a rock and singing, "Hey Mr. Postman, bring me a post, bring me the post that I love the most. (stops singing as Jamie the mailman appears) Huh? (gasps and gets excited) My song came true! Do you have a package for me today?!"

"Hold on." Jamie opens his mailbag, "Let me see what I've got here. (takes out a peculiar package) Did you order a loaf of bread with a stamp on it?"

Steven shakes his head. "No."

Jamie pulls out envelope, "Did you order a jury summon for R.J. Finkle?"

Steven shakes his head again, a little bothered, "That's not me, I'm Steven."

"Oh, right, right, right, Steven!" Jamie pulls out a parcel, "Here it is, Steven Universe."

"Ha!" Steven gets ecstatic, "This thing is gonna help me save the world."

Jamie raised an eyebrow, "Really? It says it's from Wacky Sacks Supply Company."

Steven explained, "Y/n, Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl think I shouldn't go on magic adventures because I don't know how to use my Gem powers."

Jamie nodded, "...That seems reasonable."

Steven waved his finger, "But there are other ways I can help."

Jamie questions, "With a Wacky Sack?"

"Exactly!"

"Do you know how you can save my world?" Jamie takes out a signature pad, "Sign here, please."

"Aah!" Steven writes his name and draws stars over it.

Jamie sighed, "Barb yells at me if I don't get signatures."

"That's awful." Steven's house suddenly starts glowing from the inside. "Y/n, Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl are back!

Steven grabs the parcel and runs up the stairs towards his house, Jamie shouts, "Wait, Steven! What is a Wacky Sack?!"

[Inside the Beach House]

Steven enters the house, hearing Y/n's laughter, "Huh?"

"Whew, that was a ride!" Y/n put their hands on the back of their head. "Oh, welcome back, Steven!"

Garnet covered in feathers, "Hello, Steven."

Pearl glared, "Amethyst, we do not need that! It's not going to fit in the fridge!"

"What? I got this." Amethyst slowly slides a tray out of the fridge, spilling a carton of milk and dropping a bag of bagels, and puts the giant egg inside, "Look, it fits! Ha! (slams the fridge door, as a crack is heard from the inside) Oh man, We can make a big omelet, or a quiche, or big sunny side ups!"

Steven looks at Y/n, "what's with all the feathers?"

Y/n ruffled Steven's hair, "well, we ended up fighting a giant bird. (Whispers to Steven) You shoulda seen Pearl screaming. Total bird mom- (gets hit on the head by Pearl's sword lightly)"

"Let's not over exaggerate, Em." Pearl unamused, and turns to Steven, "We're only here for a second, we've got to go back out."

Steven pondered, "What? Why?"

Pearl shows Steven a statue she's holding, "We have to place this Moon Goddess Statue on the top of the Lunar Sea Spire before midnight. Without it, the whole place will fall apart! Oh, Steven, you should have seen the spire in its heyday. (projects a hologram of the Sea Spire) It was an oasis for Gems on Earth. It's abandoned now, but we can still save it with this statue!"

"Wha?" Steven's eyes light up, "That's perfect!"

Pearl questioned, "What? Why?"

"Because I can help carry it for you, in this!" Steven opens the parcel and makes dramatic sound effects, as he pulls out a burger-shaped bag.
