Indefinite Hiatus
Tumblr media
|| Hey guys! I know I haven’t been active at all, but I’ve been working two jobs since July and just haven’t been feeling the SU fandom lately. I still love the show and I love cosplaying some of the characters, but with the constant hiatuses and no notice for when it will be back on the air, I am uninterested in rping my muses. It kind of hurts, because I have such wonderful threads on Steven, Ruby, and even Doug, and I do want to reply to them (at some point, hopefully). :/ At this point in time, I don’t have the muse for anyone in the show anymore. So, this is my official notice of an indefinite hiatus across all three accounts. I don’t know when I’ll return to them, perhaps when the show is active again? I’ll check in once in a while if you guys wanna stay in contact via messages or another blog of mine (pm me first for that), but other than that, there will be no activity from any account except for the occasional reblog of this post. The only thing I’ve actually been interested in lately is Boku no Hero Academia, so I may end up making an account for one of the characters eventually and strictly rp through there until further notice. Thank you all for reading and being such great people on here. I’ve really enjoyed my time rping with a lot of you, and hope to do so in the near future. For now, farewell~<3 ||

Her hand tensed for a moment at his touch; half-way balling into a fist, before slowly relaxing again. Honestly, Connie really hadn’t been sure what to expect from his touch. Sure, the Steven she knew would never hurt her, so she’d had nothing to fear; but then again, she’d thought the Steven she knew wouldn’t have given himself up to Homeworld, either.
Tumblr media
His touch, though… it was familiar. More than that, it was real. This really was her Steven, no matter what had happened; the tenderness of his grasp was all the convincing she needed.
That didn’t mean she wasn’t still in an emotional mess at him.
He sounded so pained. She could hear it in his voice, as he spoke… he probably shouldn’t have been speaking at all. What had even happened to him? It had to have been that Aquamarine and Topaz, they had to have hurt him…
She was angry at them, and still so angry at him, and confused and relieved and hurt…
“Steven…”
Her own voice trembled with emotion.
And then, she just couldn’t keep in in any longer. She just felt so much right then, all of it conflicting, but the one thing above it all was her concern for Steven. She had no idea what he’d been through, or how much he must have been hurt, and suddenly she just…
Tumblr media
Didn’t want to ever let him go again.
She couldn’t bear the thought.
And then she was hugging him - clinging to him was more accurate - though she couldn’t remember any conscious decision on her part. Thin arms were wrapped around his shoulders, her hands gripping onto his shirt for dear life, as if afraid that loosening her grip would result in him vanishing all over again. Her face buried in his shoulder, her form shaking, she clung to him for all she was worth.
She didn’t have any more words right then. Just emotions all over the place.
          Steven wasn’t sure how to feel in that moment. Sadness, exhaustion, regret, even lost... it honestly hit him all at once. The way she clung to him, the sounds of her crying into his shoulder, the way her body shook against his own, it was almost too much. It hurt, it hurt him so much... physically and emotionally. He was too weak for all of this commotion, but he had to tough through it. This was their reunion, he didn’t want to somehow make her worry more than she already had.
Tumblr media
          All this emotion she had built up made him regret leaving them behind like that, but he couldn’t regret the reason behind it. He did this for them, for her, for everyone in Beach City, and possibly even the world. Confronting the Diamonds was something he had to do. Nothing was going to change his mind about that.
          Slowly, he returned the embrace, closing his eyes as he desperately held onto her. It was almost surreal. During his time on Homeworld, he was tortured countless times, and in many ways. The poor boy was also deprived of most human needs such as light, food, water, even sleep. It was always so dark, and even cold. It came as a surprise to him that he even survived. Because of all this, he would hallucinate and see them there. At first, he really believed it, but grew to accept the fact that they were getting to him. They were overpowering him, they were winning.
          Being able to hold her, to actually feel someone after being gone for such a long time, it made this dream real. He was really home.
          “I’m sorry...” he mumbled a few times, wanting to apologize for hurting her and making her cry. He couldn’t even begin to imagine how this affected her for the time he was gone.
          Nothing could have made up for the time lost, and all the pain he caused everyone. He could try his best to mend their hearts, but it wasn’t going to be enough.
          “I care, I really do care...” he croaked out, his voice getting worse. “I-I just wanted to protect everyone. Though... Connie? I promise that you won’t lose me anytime soon.” Steven was sure he wasn’t going to break his promise. He was going to live on and continue the fight. Nothing was going to take him down.
          After a few minutes had passed, he couldn’t hold back his own emotions. There was so much on his mind, and all the worry and concern he had for her... it continued to snowball until it was just too much. His fingernails dug into her shirt as tears began to fall from his own eyes. Despite all the tears, he was so happy to be there. A smile cracked at the corners of his lips for a brief moment, and then, it vanished.
Tumblr media
          “...I-I missed you.”

She had predicted there was potential for a surprise, but hadn’t given herself the chance to check all the potential outcomes of it. Honestly, she rather liked the idea of being caught off guard this day. The mission she’d been on had gone well, and she knew Steven was at home and waiting for her.
When she warped in, Garnet was greeted by Steven jumping up and hugging her to the best of his abilities. A warm smile painted itself on her features, and she realized what he’d said. Mother’s Day hadn’t been a holiday he’d celebrated in years past for obvious reasons. So what was the change that had prompted him to do so this year?
“And to you, too, Steven,” Garnet said. She saw the card in his hand, and it peaked her curiosity. Of course, Garnet couldn’t ask questions. Not directly. She had to go about this the Garnet way.
Tumblr media
“I’m thinkin’… Someone’s been up to makin’ somethin’ while I’ve been gone. I wonder who that could be.”
          Garnet was on the right track with her suspicions. There wasn’t anything he could honestly hide from her, but maybe since she knew it was such a special day, she wouldn’t cheat and figure out what he was planning.
          Laughing, he let go of her and was quick to present the card he had made. “That certain someone is me,” he easily replied before continuing. “Here, this is for you. I made it this morning.”
Tumblr media
          Inside the envelope was a simple white card with magenta writing. When she opened the card, there would be a drawing of them together, along with a tiny drawing of Ruby and Sapphire with a heart surrounding them. He may not have been the best artist, but it was the thought that counted.
          “I made a whole lot of other things too. I wanted to make this day really special.”

          The day had come, and this time around, Steven put a lot of planning into it. Normally, Mother’s Day was something he never gave much thought to. With his mom not being around, it wasn’t a common holiday that he normally celebrated. This year though, he wanted it to be different. The others have always been his parental figures, maybe... this day could be spent showing them his appreciation for all that they do.
          Of course the boy went over the top, yet who could blame him? Steven wanted to make a difference. As he got everything together, he heard the warp pad activate, and immediately, he grabbed the card he had made and met Garnet there. With a grin that reached from one ear to the other, he jumped into the air and hugged her as best as he could.
Tumblr media
          “Happy Mother’s Day, Garnet!”

“S– Steven?”
She’d been sitting by his bedside in silence, lost in her own thoughts. The past few days had all just been too much; and then, add to that the call from the gems telling her that they’d found Steven unconscious in a Homeworld escape pod? Even in spite of not fully understanding what that meant, Connie’s relief had been such a profound thing that she’d just about broken down then and there on the phone.
By the time she’d reached Beach City, the dark girl had thought she’d got her emotions together a bit more; but nothing could have prepared her for seeing Steven again. She’d been so certain he was gone forever, that he’d be killed…
Seeing him back…
Still, in the face of the other gems’ emotions, Connie had simply lapsed into silence. She’d settled herself beside Steven’s bed, occasionally stroking his hand to reassure herself that he was really there, but otherwise not saying anything at all. At least, until the moment he’d said her name.
She had no idea what she felt, as she turned to face him. It broke her heart a little to see him looking so weak, so pained… and her relief at seeing him back after a terrible week of fearing the worst was a palpable thing… and yet at the same time, after that week…
Tumblr media
“How could you do that?!”
It wasn’t a rational reaction, and it surely wasn’t what Steven needed; but after a whole week of drowning in her devastation at losing him, Connie couldn’t keep any of it contained any longer.
“Don’t you CARE at all? Do you know how scared Pearl, Garnet and Amethyst were for you? How scared I was for you? We thought you were gone for good! Homeworld would have killed you, and all you could give us was ‘it’s not what she’d have wanted, it’s what I want’?!”
So she was paraphrasing there.
The rest of her emotions were fast overwhelming her anger. Tears fell freely from the dark girl’s eyes, and her tone dropped to barely a whisper. She could only stare at Steven, at the boy who truly meant the whole world to her… so relieved that he was back, so terrified that she’d find out at any moment that this wasn’t real…
Tumblr media
“You could have been killed… Steven, we could have lost you…”
          Hearing her speak calmed him, it was so relieving. Something to remind him that he was actually there. How long he was out for was another thing that crossed his mind, but by the way she was positioned, it was probably for a while.
          Next was the sudden outburst of anger, which was to be expected. His smile faded, and he took in all that she had to say. Of course she would be upset with him... he left them all behind, knowing exactly what he was getting into. Steven wasn’t even sure that he was going to make it, hence why he was okay with her yelling at him. In a way, he deserved it.
Tumblr media
          Some of the words did sting though. He cared, he really did. All he was trying to do was protect them. Homeworld was dangerous, and it made sense at the time to give himself up so that the ones he loved would be spared. Maybe if he kept apologizing, it could possibly make things better.
          When she grew quiet, he focused on her more intently, noticing the tears falling fast from her eyes. No... he didn’t want to make her cry. The words that followed pierced his heart. He really did hurt everyone. Forcing himself to sit up, he then reached out for her hand, wanting to comfort her despite all the pain he was in. What mattered now was her happiness. His own well-being could be put aside for now.
Tumblr media
          “Connie I’m... I’m sorry... I-I know words don’t mean much, but... I’m here now, right? I’m not going anywhere.”
          It hurt to even speak, but how else was he supposed to communicate with her? As a matter of fact, would he even be able to make things right with her? This was a lot for him to handle, yet he wasn’t going to give up. queezing her hand, he tried smiling again, hoping this would lighten the mood a little.

Caught In The Middle
@shortexistxnce
          His eyes flickered open, vision completely blurry. Everything ached, and he couldn’t remember what happened. Where was he? The last he could recall was the pod coming back to Earth. Did he make it home? He was in a complete daze, but slowly, his hearing came back to him and he heard concerned voices and quiet sobs. He was home... Pearl, she was crying, Amethyst was trying her best to keep it together, Garnet was just trying to keep everyone calm, but as he tried to look around, someone caught his attention. Dark skin, long flowing hair... Connie? Was it really her? A soft smile graced his lips as he tried his best to focus on her.
          Steven couldn’t even begin to imagine how this affected her. Thinking back, in pained his heart to recall how much she screamed his name and told him not to leave with Aquamarine and the Topaz fusion. He didn’t have a choice though, he wanted to protect the ones he cared about. This was the only way to atone for what his mother did. They all had to understand that, right?
Tumblr media
          With his vision clearing, her face became more visible, which in turn made it easier on his eyes. He was already straining them so much. “H-hey, Connie...” He mumbled, his voice cracking and was almost non-existent. How he got there was one thing, figuring they must have found him somewhere, but that didn’t matter. He was just grateful that he was surrounded by the people that meant a lot to him.

Well… oh.
Connie’s face coloured a little bit as she looked at the text. Here, she’d been pounding on the door, when she could have just turned the handle and let herself in… the girl could hardly help but feel a slight bit foolish. Clearly, in her flustered state of mind she just wasn’t thinking straight; rubbing her collar sheepishly, Connie opened the door and stepped inside.
Tumblr media
“…Steven?”
Glancing around, she couldn’t see any immediate sign of him in the main area of the little beach house. Of course, he had to be here; and Connie was pretty certain that, if he wasn’t in the living room area, he had to be either upstairs in bed, or in the bathroom. One of those, not even her current concerned state could justify disturbing Steven in; which made the bedroom area her primary priority.
The dark girl took the stairs two at a time.
Stopped short.
In spite of the urgency with which she’d rushed over here, Connie hadn’t quite been prepared to actually see Steven again. The way he was curled up in bed, sheets drawn so tightly around himself… Connie couldn’t shake the thought that he looked really small and vulnerable lying there, and her heart just about broke for her friend.
She certainly didn’t have the heart to scold him when he was like this.
Crossing to the bed in a couple more strides, Connie set herself down lightly on the edge of the mattress. She reached out one hand, placing in on his shoulder in a reassuring gesture; and then couldn’t hold herself back any more.
Tumblr media
She hugged him tightly, slender arms wrapping around him to cling with a real sense of desperation. In all truth, Connie cared so much for Steven that it hurt, and now that they were back in the same room after so, so many months apart, she couldn’t hold that in anymore. She didn’t know the details of what was troubling him, but for the briefest of moments that hardly mattered. All Connie knew was that she wanted to make it all better for him, for this boy who was so precious to her.
“It’s okay, Steven. It’s okay. I’m here.”
          The door opened, and his breathing easily picked up. It was simple; he was nervous about their interaction. How was she going to react once she actually saw him? Was she going to be okay? Steven was so worried, he didn’t want to disappoint her. Connie meant so much to him, he didn’t want to make her worry or somehow break her heart. She was his best friend, and now all this pressure came onto him because of it. How was he going to do this?
          Her voice glided through the air as she spoke his name. It was both comforting and scary. It only reassured him that she was truly here with him. As she came up the stairs, he held onto the blankets that surrounded him tighter, not wanting them to budge just yet.
          As she sat down, he sighed quietly, almost afraid of saying hello. Should he have come out from hiding? Should he have spoken up? All these questions ran through his delicate mind, but when that familiar gentle touch was received, all the thoughts stopped, his head clearing. Granted, the fabric barrier was what was keeping them apart, the action was still so welcoming. 
          That was, until she suddenly embraced him. The pain was overwhelming, but he tried his best to not let it show. It was obvious she missed him. The way she held him, it pained his heart. Steven kept her waiting long enough. Slowly, his arms found their way around her petite form. Even if he still couldn’t show his face, he desperately wanted to be close with her again. It had been such a long time.
          Through the sheets, his fingers clung to her as best as he could. He needed this more than anything, to have her by his side again. As time went by, sniffling could be heard from under the sheets. The boy was trying his hardest to hold his tears back, but there was no use in trying. They easily fell from his brown orbs, and he shifted slightly so he could hug her better. She was indeed his safety net.
Tumblr media
          “I-I missed you s-so much, Connie...”

Hello everyone! In the next couple weeks, I’m not gonna be very active. I’ll be hopefully moving across the state and be very busy with that. I’m gonna try and be on here to reply sometimes, but also until the Steven bomb happens, I may be on my new Tamaki blog more since I have more of a muse for him, and don’t have much of a muse for both Steven and Ruby. Also, I just got back from Zenkaikon last night and I had the chance to meet the voice actress for Connie’s mom and I nearly lost my shit. She was so nice and wonderful, I’ll have to upload the autographs I got later so you all can see!

Hello everyone! I’m Yomi, and I actually used to roleplay as Tamaki a few years ago over here. After not being active for two years on that blog (due to starting a couple Steven Universe blogs), and despite all of the history I had on that blog, I decided that I would have been better off starting fresh. So yeah, like this (or reblog if you’re a side blog) if you’d like to interact with a semi-new Tamaki~
