Reality change

reality change is a Steven universe au of mine set in an alt world from ours where magic exists and regular people can become gems by using ancient and forgotten methods called gem link/binding. in this au, gem links where used long ago by people who sought immortality. Gem links worked but it was flawed as on rare occasions the person would experiance personality changes, mixed memories and sometimes even forget who they where entirely, and all the original people who turned into gems have dissappeared or where shattered in the past.

the process of gem link isnt that hard either. the person will already have a gem of the same cut, size and color as the gem they want to become. magic is then used on the gem to begin the process and the gem is embedded into the persons body. the persons dna is taken in by the gem and encoded into it before the gem removes itself from the body. the person is then reborn as the same gem they chose to be, now living in immortality with the same powers.

However, there is no known way of returning someone to their past self after they have became a gem so they must choose their gem wisely.
