blackdiamond diamond fanfiction reader romance stevenuniverse

You were a shadow kept behind a looking glass for only White Diamond's eyes to see. She sheltered you for your own good, as you were a gem of a darker shade. No, you were not a corrupt gem - not in the slightest. Though, your people on Homeworld considered you to be nothing but a myth - a Diamond covered in a shade of darkness. You were Black Diamond, an isolated gem that was never known to see the other bright and colourful gems that flourished on your planet. Was White keeping you hidden to prevent you from being rejected, or were you just needed to be kept under her shadow - composed of an overprotective cage? Everything would begin to change when you found yourself on Planet Earth and in the eyes of Crystal Gems. Can a gem that doesn't glitter so bright find acceptance. . . Or maybe love?

Pearl : White Diamond's by clearwritings

White Diamond's Pearl decides while meeting another yet different Pearl that she wants a different life for herself. Except, she does not know what that life could possibly look like. While getting to know this new Pearl, she figures through him how she could get that new life while reigniting a new flame. ------ I do not own any of these characters. ------ For my book cover, White Diamond was drawn by Reni, here is the Tumblr link for those interested https://reni-doodles.tumblr.com/ I didn't ask to use the art but I had to give credit since I found this on a google search.

The Neo Gem Empire: Light upon the Void. by Lunariz_Moonlight

I do not own Steven Universe or any other show or franchise This is simply a work for fun. A long, long time ago, when life around the universe was at its first steps. A being of unmeasurable power gave birth to a new species of living creatures. It created two which it hoped would make more of themselves, to grow and prosper on these barren Galaxies. However, unlike how the being expected, the two of its creations would separate due to their opposing beliefs and views in creation. While one of them seeked control and order, the other seeked for strength and prosperity. Having these opposing beliefs would separate not only themselves but the universe itself. One would control the Top part of the universe and the other the bottom parts. While unspoken a promise was made that day that light and darkness were to be divided indefinitely. One world would not dare to cross the other, and if it were to happen, the other shall not back down. The creator of these creatures could only look on in sadness, as its two creations created walls separating each other, it could only hope that one day something or someone would once again reunite these two fragmented worlds.

Consequences by SodaliteWrites

Steven, Homeworld, Danger... Diamonds... Those words don't sound too comforting together, right? Who said this was a comforting story? For Steven and the gems, things finally don't go right. When Steven is separated from Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl during the attempt to retrieve his father from the zoo, he is found, and quickly identified as a rose quartz gem... and not just any, but the rebellion leader's own son. Blue and Yellow Diamond create a master plan to finally eliminate the Crystal Gems, and Steven is the key to doing so. All they have to do is play a game of emotions, and things will soon fall into their hands, due to a very unlikely snitch. Will Steven be able to resist the Diamonds and escape, or will Steven's Universe crumple because of himself? (Rated T, to be on the completely safe side, but I seriously doubt there will be anything too bad in my fanfiction, as I am trying to make it as close to the style of the show as possible! AU, takes place right after 'That Will Be All'. I DO NOT OWN STEVEN UNIVERSE! REBECCA SUGAR DOES! ONLY CHARACTERS NOT MENTIONED IN THE SHOW BUT ARE IN THIS FANFICTION BELONG TO ME! Cover art also belongs to me. By the way, those diamonds look white on the computer, but on the actual paper they are yellow. Just to lead my readers out of the way of confusion.)

But, even with your tugging curiosity, you've stayed away from all that crazy stuff. I mean, you have a good life. Why would you risk that for a life of adventure and adrenaline... and space... and cool weapons... and fun and... You wanted to be a part of it so bad. ✨COMMENTS ENCOURAGED; they're fun and entertaining and i like feedback✨ Rankings: #1 Steven #1 Suf #1 Stevenuniverse #1 Stevenuniversefuture #1 Stevenxreader #1 Kevinxjamie

Vendetta (A Lapidot Fanfiction) by xXNeutronStarXx

The battle for Lapis's life has ended-or so it seems-and things are back to being semi-normal for her. She is enjoying her life with Peridot and the rest of the pack, but then she starts to notice things. Red eyes watching her from afar, glaring at her, begging for her to come near. Something tells her that the battle isn't over after all. Peridot remains vigilant as she always has, despite Lapis's assurance that it's all over. As confident as she may be, she begins to learn that she does, indeed, have more to learn about her imprint. When things start to appear in Lapis's vision, it doesn't appear to be so safe anymore. There's a new battle coming, and she's known the whole time. ~ *COVER ART DRAWN BY ME* Hey! Daybreak returns with its sequel Vendetta! Sorry for the wait!

The Diamond in The Rough by Skywardsword25

Perfection, mistakes, darkness, and light. Two forces that need each other and yet can never co-exist without causing some type of chaos. Not everything is as simple as black is from white and if this turns into eons worth of pain and heartbreak. The only question is this, which diamond will give out first? Which diamond will give in to the pain and hatred that was caused by each other first? With the long-forgotten court rising and their leader making a return. Only the shadows of darkness and heavy memories are to follow with every step that is taken by the Black Court's leader. All Steven can do is make a journey through the darkness in order to find the hidden light within the Black court. Before war falls upon them, Homeworld, and Earth once more and enter into another gem war.

Beach City's Lost Files by maplebagels

Imagine Beach City. A normal city, normal people, normal society, a normal school. Or, at least, one can only assume so. Some might say that their school is abnormal because of the people in it. When we use the word "abnormal" to describe Beach City Middle School, we aren't lying. As gems, Pearl, Garnet, Amethyst, Steven, and all the others have a bit of a hard time living normal lives. Whether they're respected or picked on because of their appearance, they all manage to get through... Most of it. The crystal gems, trying to hide their secrets to avoid further investigation, Steven and Connie, trying to live life to the fullest, Lapis and Peridot, trying to uncover as many secrets as possible, and Jasper and her gang, trying to be the best and most loved- and feared. Follow each of their journeys throughout their middle school year, and don't be surprised if it doesn't turn out to be your typical teenfic! ( new chapter every Monday )

Steven Universe : The Forgotten Prince by RjHolloway

Kidnapped at birth. Raised by tyrants. Built to break the very world that should have been his home. In this alternate‑universe retelling, Steven never grows up in Beach City. Instead, he is taken from Earth as an infant and forged into Pink Diamond, Facet 2: Homeworld's flawless heir, living weapon, and living reminder of everything the Diamonds lost. For fourteen years he walks the gleaming halls of Homeworld as a pampered prisoner, adored, displayed, and endlessly corrected. Yellow drills him into the perfect strategist. Blue shapes his every feeling into a performance. White demands a spotless mind and absolute control. Steven learns to smile on command, heal on command, shatter on command-until he no longer knows where their expectations end and his own heart begins. Then a routine mission sends him to a forgotten backwater planet called Earth. A sleepy beach town, a crumbling temple, and a handful of stubborn humans begin to unravel everything he's been taught. Memories that should not exist claw at the edges of his mind. A familiar song on the wind hurts more than any Diamond's punishment. The "monsters" he's ordered to eliminate know his name before he speaks. Torn between the family that raised him and the family that lost him, Steven must decide what kind of prince he wants to be: the perfect Diamond weapon who finally proves his worth, or the flawed, human boy who refuses to let an empire decide who he is. Love tried to save him once. This time, he has to save himself.
