#charcoal spinel

[trelinha9]

Can we talk about the fact that the base forms for both of Amethio's pokemon are some of the cutest and most adorable pokemon out there?

And it's also interesting to me that some dex entries for Rookidee and Charcadet remind me a lot of Amethio.

Rookidee's Sword dex entry states:

"It will bravely challenge any opponent, no matter how powerful. This Pokémon benefits from every battle—even a defeat increases its strength a bit"

Which reminds me a lot of how he challenged Rayquaza alone with just two Pokémon without blinking. It was very reckless of him, and Ceruledge paid the price. And after his defeat, he (we assume, because for some reason we DIDN'T SEE IT) started training a lot so he could have a chance next time.

And Charcadet's Scarlet entry says:

"Burnt charcoal came to life and became a Pokémon. Possessing a fiery fighting spirit, Charcadet will battle even tough opponents"

Which makes a lot of sense and also reminds me a lot of Amethio. Amethio certainly faced very strong opponents (Friede, Moltres, Rayquaza and even Hamber), but so did Ceruledge. They face the challenges that appear before them together and united, and it is very obvious that Ceruledge cares a lot about Amethio and is extremely loyal to him. Which brings us to:

ARMAROUGE'S Scarlet dex entry, that states:

"Armarouge evolved through the use of a set of armor that belonged to a distinguished warrior. This Pokémon is incredibly loyal"

Among Armarouge and Ceruledge's dex entries, this is the only one that mentions either of them being extremely loyal. The entries for Ceruledge say:

"The fiery blades on its arms burn fiercely with the lingering resentment of a sword wielder who fell before accomplishing their goal"

"An old set of armor steeped in grudges caused this Pokémon’s evolution. Ceruledge cuts its enemies to pieces without mercy"

While the first entry may be a parallel to how Amethio wants to get stronger and capture Rayquaza before the other Explorers after failing his mission, the second entry (from Pokémon Violet) is basically the opposite of how Amethio's Ceruledge behaves. Ceruledge seems to be described as a dark Pokémon that ambushes its enemies and plays dirty to achieve its goals, but Amethio's Ceruledge behaves exactly the opposite of that! The truth is that this description fits Spinel more than any other Horizons character so far.

The only time we've seen Ceruledge disobey Amethio so far was in the battle against Hamber. Amethio ordered Amethio to dodge Dusknoir's Shadow Ball, but Ceruledge cut it in half. Why that? Because if he had dodged it, the attack would have hit the area where Ametio was and could have hurt him! Ceruledge always obeys Amethio, but when the situation is to obey Amethio and complete the mission with the consequence that Amethio's safety is at risk, Ceruledge will choose to protect Amethio, even if it means disobeying. Ceruledge's loyalty is to Amethio, not the Explorers.

Also, a little bonus:

Rookidee's Violet dex entry says:

"The females are fussier than the males. If another creature dirties a female Rookidee’s wings, it’ll peck the offender relentlessly in a burning rage"

I'm mentioning this... because it's adorable, and I really want Amethio's Corviknight to be a female because of this entry :3

So, basically: I need more young Amethio with Charcadet and Rookidee fanart

#pokemon horizons #amethio #ceruledge #ceruledge pokemon #amethio's ceruledge #rookidee #corviknight #corviknight pokemon #amethio's corviknight #pokedex #charcadet #i love how we get thid scenes with Amethio and Ceruledge #ep 2 when Ceruledge saves Amethio from Sprigatito's leafage... #and the final scene of ep 26...

Steven universe au for clownpizza ideas!

Pomni:maybe she is a spinel with a jester apperance, she was given to a Gem with higher rank (Caine in this au) but she run away when ended fusing with other gem by mistake.

Peppino:he could be a charcoal, a strong gem for fighting, but a lot of war and fight put him in a high level of anxiety and Stress. He run away from his mother Planet when he fused with other gem by mistake.

Kobeni Higashiyama:a girl that was alone in earth and ended adopted by both gems. They don't know what is a mother or a father but they know she was alone and now she is part of their group.

For the 🦈SirenSong!AU, it looks like the popular idea is for the reader to be related to Logan, a.k.a. Wolverine! Got to admit, that will be one wild ride. Not to mention, the reader is getting every kid he has adopted/had biologically as their siblings/nestmates, all his friends (the X-Men) as their other protectors and caretakers, AND a few of his enemies/rivals (plus their kids/guppies/pups) as possible villainous uncles/aunts/parent figures/other nestmates.

Some of the possible colors and types of sirens everyone is is as follows:

The X-Men:

• Logan/Wolverine: deep sea siren; larger than regular reef or open ocean sirens, but still small compared to other deep sea sirens; long serpentine tail with a long sail, and long, sharp claws, and fangs; has rippling soft, dusky blue and lemon yellow and ink black scales (Animated Series version) or pumpkin orange and iridescent black scales (Evolution version)

• Ororo/Storm: open ocean siren; lithe and powerful; flowing fins around her tail, similar to an eel, can electrocute someone like an electric eel, can still control the elements; moonstone white and blue scales (Animated Series or Evolution version)

• Hank/Beast: deep sea siren; large and soft; strong tail, a bit of fluff like a yeti crab or fur seal or otter; is fluffy and blue, really strong, but his brains is where his best skills lie; furry with royal blue scales (Animated Series) or midnight blue scales and dusky blue-gray fluff (Evolution version)

• Charles Xavier/Professor X: reef siren; partially paralyzed tail, but has had help from both the X-Men and the Brotherhood, and can use a wheelchair on land; powerful ability to mind control creatures, ranging from humans to other sirens, even some animals; shady forest green and summer yellow scales (Animated Series version) or soft brown, jet black, olive green, and tiny flecks of silver (Evolution version)

• Scott/Cyclops: open ocean siren; strong tail with flowy fins at the end; either hypnotic eyes or still has some form of optic beam eyes; ruby red, navy blue, and sunflower yellow scales (Animated Series version) or garnet red, warm brown, and summer yellow scales (Evolution version)

• Jean/Marvel Girl/The Phoenix: open ocean siren; strong and long tail with a long sail; has telekinesis and can sometimes read minds, possible hidden empath ability; bright orange, sage green, and scarlet scales (Animated Series version) or spinel red, emerald green, and a small streak of golden-yellow along her sides (Evolution version)

• Anne-Marie/Rogue: open ocean siren; toned and firm tail; can mimic/take on other sirens' abilities for a short time, has long nails; auburn, sunny yellow, and vivid green scales (Animated Series version) or moss green, dusky red, bone white, and dark black scales (Evolution version)

• Remy/Gambit: reef siren; a bigger sort, has ruffled fins; can channel power into objects and make them explode, same as usual, possibly has a slightly hypnotic voice; russet red, spinel pink, and coal black scales (Animated Series version) or muted brown, charcoal gray, rusty red, and soft pink scales (Evolution version)

• Kurt/Nightcrawler: reef siren; smaller sort, fuzzy and noodly; can teleport; midnight blue fluff and scales with some red undertones (Animated Series version) or navy blue, goldenrod yellow, and small red specks (Evolution version)

• Kitty/Shadowcat: reef siren; medium-sized, and has many frills along her tail; can turn invisible, like a cuttlefish or octopus, but can sometimes become completely intangible; hazelnut brown and baby pink scales (Animated Series version) or soft lilac, dusky pink, and chestnut brown scales (Evolution version)

• Evan/Spyke: open ocean siren; lean and toned; has sharp spines, and can regrow them if lost, kinda looks like a seprentine pufferfish; he is technically only from Evolution, so his scales would be cream, butter yellow, sandy gray-yellow, and warm sepia

• Jubilation/Jubilee: reef siren; thin and wiry, ruffled sail; can make small explosions/fireworks; technically she has been in Evolution, but was a major player of the Animated Series, so for either version, she looks mainly the way from the Animated Series, human and siren form alike, with sunlight gold and bubblegum pink scales

• Laura/Wolverine 2.0/X-23: deep sea siren mixed with reef siren; smaller than most of the others, even Logan, due to being a siren pup; long claws and sharp fangs; she was from Evolution, that is where we first see her, ever; her scales would be yellow-orange and dusky black, looks similar to Logan

The Brotherhood:

• Erik/Magnus/Magneto: open ocean siren; strong and lean; can control metals, might have once dated/been with Professor Xavier; blood red, steel gray, and violet scales (Animated Series version) or brick red, silver, and wisteria purple scales (Evolution version)

• Raven/Mystique: open ocean siren and reef siren mix; lithe and graceful; can shapeshift into other beings; twilight blue and garnet red scales (Animated Series or Evolution)

• Victor/Sabretooth: deep sea siren; very large, flowing sail; sharp talons and sharp fangs; sunset orange, amber, bright yellow, and umber brown scales (Animated Series version) or caramel golden-brown, velvet black, and tan scales (Evolution version)

• Pietro/Quicksilver: reef siren; lean and thin; fastest of the sirens, on land or in the sea; sky blue and snow white scales (Animated Series version) or opalescent white-blue-green scales (Evolution version)

• Wanda/Scarlet Witch: open ocean siren; average-sized and tough; can manipulate chaos and bend some things to her will; pyrope red and dark rose scales (Animated Series version) or carnelian, scarlet, melanite black, and gray flecked scales (Evolution version)

• Lance/Avalanche: open ocean siren; a bit large, firm; can cause earthquakes; asphalt and blue-gray scales (Animated Series version) or steel gray, rawhide tan, charcoal black, and some golden spots (Evolution version)

• Fred/Blob: open ocean siren; large and thick-scaled; near-indestructible and can absorb a hit and not be harmed; mud brown, mustard yellow, and burnt black (Animated Series version) or army green, khaki, ash gray, and dirty blonde scales (Evolution version)

• John/Pyro: reef siren; a bit shrimpy, but has fast reflexes; can manipulate fire; bright orange and sunny yellow scales (Animated Series version) or fiery orange and brick red scales (Evolution version)

• Todd/Mortimer/Toad: reef siren; really small, has slick scales; long tongue and somewhat amphibious; olive green, murky yellow, and gray-green scales (any version)

Miscellaneous Characters:

• Piotr/Colossus: open ocean siren; giant and sturdy; has skin and scales akin to metal if he wills it; metallic silver, gray, black, and blue scales (Animated Series or Evolution version)

• Bobby/Iceman: reef siren; a bit small, and kinda thin and cold, has frills along tail; can create and manipulate ice; pale ice blue scales (Animated Series or Evolution version)

• Rahne/Wolfsbane: open ocean siren; regular-sized, small bits of fluff; can turn into a wolf (or maybe something like, a seal or walrus or otter for this au?); rusty red-brown and peridot green scales and fluff (any version)

• Illyana/Magik: open ocean siren; lean and mean and a powerful teen; has a portal to and reign over Limbo, a weird, demonic dimension; platinum blonde, soft silver, and electric blue scales (Animated Series or Evolution version)

• Roberto/Sunspot: reef siren; average size, has some sharp barbs along his tail; solar energy powers, turns into a living ember; ember orange, dusky red, and sunlight yellow scales (any version)

• Sam/Cannonball: open ocean and reef siren mix; skinny and long; can fly really fast and tends to crash, hence the nickname; pale blue, off-white, daffodil yellow, and bright red scales

• Dani/Mirage: open ocean siren; small but powerful; can manifest desires, dreams, and fears into the real world; banded onyx scales (any version)

• Tabitha/Boom-Boom: reef siren; tall and lithe; can make small explosives/explosions; bright hibiscus pink, banana yellow, and cherry red scales (any version)

There are others, I know, but these were the ones I remembered (and knew enough about) to list off the top of my head. Some versions I'm more familiar with of certain characters, and y'all can imagine any characters in any media, from the (X)MCU, the anime, the Animated Series, Evolution, even the comics... I did my best, and that is all I can do!😊 Please enjoy this honeycomb thought for the 🦈SirenSong!AU!

🎭 CARBORUNDUM 🎭

🎶���� CHARCOAL SPINEL, COLORLESS MOONSTONE & P.E.B.B.L.E. PERMAFUSION 📦🎶

Gems who belonged to White's court knowing each other in forbidden meetings that quickly formed a great friendship since they all have a trauma in common; given this, as luck would have it, the three had to travel to Earth during the rebellion and were poofed by one of their other friends. When they regenerated and saw all the chaos that was happening, they decided to fuse for the common good, becoming this great gem, thus they began to help all the gems they saw vulnerable since they weren't on any side; when the Diamonds attack occurred, they still decided to bubble some gemstones lying on the ground to save them from what happened next: their corruption which ended up separating them, although some the shrunk mollusk grabbed them to be defeated. When Era III arrived, they decided to get back together, becoming permafusion and swearing revenge on the gem that condemned them; they're in the "AndroFusions" group where few gems that have proven to be true permafusions made of various feelings and emotions, fight to be recognized and respected like any other gem

The black sapphire is by far one of the most fascinating gems that exist in nature. Though there are many other colors of sapphire, black is without a doubt the most mysterious variety for good reasons.

In this article, we will talk about what is a black sapphire, how much it is worth and if you should buy one for your jewelry collection. Enjoy!

amazonite meaning

What is a black sapphire?

The black sapphire is a variety of sapphire, whose color is black instead of the typical blue. In fact, the word “sapphire” comes from the Greek word for blue and refers to the bluish-purple color of these gems.

 Black sapphire properties

Black sapphire is a type of sapphire that has been named specifically because of its black color. There are also other types of stones which are known to possess similar characteristics, like black onyx, black spinel and black diamond, and they are at times mistaken for black sapphires.

It is made of corundum and is the hardest natural substance (9 on the Mohs scale of hardness) after diamonds and the extremely rare gem moissanite.

 Sapphire colors

What color is black sapphire? Though most people think sapphires are blue, a sapphire can be any color but red. Black sapphires have a color range from charcoal to deep black, with the best stones being very dark.

Besides a limited range of main colors, the black sapphire often has hues of blue, purple, and even sometimes orange seen within the stone.

The stone is often opaque, and the luster can range from sub-metallic to vitreous.

 Size

Black sapphires are found in various sizes, with some of the largest ever mined coming from Australia. Most of the sapphires that are said to be truly black are mined in Eastern Australia.

 Structure

This beautiful stone forms in a variety of different crystal structures, among all of which a hexagonal crystal system is most common. The typical crystals that form in this system are known as “lonsdaleite”.

 Cutting

Black sapphires are sometimes cut in briolette cabochons. This cutting technique will help to prevent less-desirable colors and patterns from being seen in the jewelry works. Many black sapphires contain inclusions too, which are often bubble-like in nature.

 Origins of the black sapphire stone

Most black sapphires exist in nature, though synthetic ones do exist as well. The best black sapphires are mined in Australia, with the Gabriola mine being an especially famous mine for producing some of the world’s best stones.

Many large black sapphires are also mined in Thailand, which is known to be a good source for them. Some of the finest large and extremely dark purple-black sapphires come from that area.

Ok so starting off the gem OCs I’ll bring up my latest: charcoal spinel, first pic is her classic design and the rest are for the CG spinel au. Basically chari here plays the role of the movies villain in Spinels place (the movie generally plays out the same with a few differences in details, but general motive and stuff is the same maybe) idk but one thing that differentiates Charcoal spinel and Spinel is that Chari here is silent, I’m thinking she can talk but only when she really has to. So basically there would be Gags playing off this.

Uh basic info on my classic charcoal spinel; I based her off old silent cartoons/anime and well she’s in greyscale.

Legends say there’s a horrible monster in the forest, and you are determined to find the truth.

Spinel/Reader

Wordcount: 4,739

Rating: T

Collab with @captainillogical​

“Don't go into the woods” The elders would always say. “There lives a terrifying beast that will devour you whole.”

“It has fangs as long as your arms.”

“Claws that can shred through trees in an instant.”

“Spiraling eyes that can seduce you in seconds.”

Each time they spoke of this monster it got more grotesque. More monstrous. More dangerous. They would use this monster to keep children in line. 

“Stop fussing or the forest monster will come for you.” They would say. “It will take you away and eat you for dinner.” 

You heard this phrase a lot in your childhood. The forest was always a point of interest for you. It called to you. Many times you got caught trying to sneak in. 

“I don't believe in the forest monster.” You would huff at your parents as they scolded you. “Has it ever been seen before?” 

“Of course.” They would say “The Elders have seen it time and time again.”

They placed all their beliefs in the elders. You, on the other hand,  were very skeptical. If this monster truly existed then why were the elders the only ones to see it? How was anyone supposed to believe that it was there if the only person to see it was some old ladies? You wanted to find out the truth. You wanted to see this monster in person. 

When you were finally old enough to leave home you packed all you could into a single satchel. You were going to get to the bottom of this even if it killed you, literally. At least then the town folks would know this thing really exists. 

You stood at the town's edge, where it met the forest, and hoisted your satchel onto your shoulder. The sky was a gloomy gray color and the wind was chill. You pull up your scarf and adjust your jacket, turning to look at your home one last time before leaving. No one came to see you off, not even your parents. The elders had banned everyone from witnessing you. You were on a “fool's errand” they had said to you. You were going to show them they were wrong. You took your first step into the dark woods with your head held high.

After several hours of walking you had come to the conclusion that if this monster truly existed you would have seen it by now. With a heavy sigh you set your satchel down on the roots of a large oak tree. You take a second to collect a few branches and dry leaves around the large tree and start up a fire, poking at it until it was large enough to keep you warm. The sky was overcast but you could tell it was about lunch time. You sit down by the fire and pull your satchel over, ruffling around in it until you found your loaf of bread and cheese you had packed. Pulling out your hunters knife, you sliced off a piece of bread and held it close to the fire to toast it. Once toasted you cut a piece of cheese and placed it on top. Satisfied with your lunch you began to eat and take in your surroundings. The forest was rather peaceful if you ignored the stories about a monster that eats anyone who walks through its domain. You basked in the warmth of the fire for a while, enjoying your lunch and the calmness of the forest. After a while of admiring your surroundings you finally decide to get back to your adventure. Putting out your fire and adjusting your satchel on your shoulder, you begin your trek again. 

Just as the sun begins to set, rain falls from the sky. You curse under your breath as you rush under a tree to protect yourself from the offending water. You quickly take in your surroundings and find a cave opening. It should make the perfect shelter for the night or at least until the rain settles. You grab a few branches and leaves before they can get soaked and make a run for the cave. You make it into the cave just in time as the rain comes down heavier and lightning starts to cross the sky. Shivering, you move a little further into the cave and drop your bundle of sticks onto the ground. It takes a little work but eventually you get a fire started. You remove your scarf, followed by your jacket and set it close to the fire to allow them to dry. You plop yourself down as close to the flames as you can and try to get warm. Soon you begin to feel tired, the days hike catching up with you, so you lay your head down on your satchel and allow sleep to take you. 

-

A loud boom of thunder wakes you from your slumber a few hours later. The fire you had started earlier now just a few embers. You let out a breath you didn't know you were holding before moving to start up the fire again. A small scuffle grabs your attention and you look to the back of the cave. Squinting your eyes you try to make out what could have made the noise but fail to see anything. With a sense of unease you turn back to starting up your fire again. The wind from the opening of the cave making it a little harder this time as you strike at your flint with your knife. This time it's the sound of a pebble skipping across stone that gets your attention. You look to the back of the cave again and this time you see a pair of pink glowing eyes staring back at you. Every instinct tells you to scream and run but you just clamp a hand over your mouth and lean away from the eyes boring into you. They don't move as they watch you and you almost believe that it's your eyes playing tricks on you until a bright flash of lightning lights up the cave and you see for just a brief second a towering monster. 

This time you do scream but you still do not run. Your body frozen as the beast approaches you. You fall back onto your rump as it towers over you. Another flash of lighting and you could see the monster that leaned above you. It had to be at least seven feet tall. Large fangs jutted out from its mouth and horns curled from its head. It lowered itself, eyes becoming level with yours, and its face a mere inch away. You didn't dare glance at the claws that came from its fingertips or the hand that could crush your throat in a second. It eyes shone a bright pink with black and white spirals. It wore clothing of some sort, rags you would say with the way they were shredded. Twin tails, fluffy and soft looking, set atop its head and defied any sense of gravity. An upside down heart shaped gem sat center of its chest, cracked but still together. 

“You don’t run.” Its voice was gravely and tired. Its eyes stared into yours and you realize it's awaiting a response. 

“I do not run because I came looking for you, Ancient One.” You answer, voice shaking with fear. 

“Do not call me that.” It barks and you flinch away slightly. 

“T-then what shall I call you?” 

“I have been given many names, but you shall call me Spinel.” 

“Spinel?” You test the name and the beast seems to smile at you, its jagged teeth more visible. 

“Tell me wanderer, why come looking for me?” It tilts its head at you. “Do you wish to slay me? Or perhaps you are just stupid?” 

“I do not come to slay you, I come to prove your existence.” 

“Ah, you are just stupid then.” The beast huffs, turning away from you and heading further back into the cave. You frown slightly at the insult as it speaks up again “Then you have seen me for what I am and you may leave now.”

“I do not wish to leave yet.” You confess. “I wish to know more about you.” You grab your satchel and dig out your notebook and a piece of charcoal. The beast laughs, loud and boisterous, before turning back to you. 

“Why do you wish to know about a monster?” Its voice sounds guarded. 

“My people believe you a child napper and murderer, I wish to prove them wrong.”

“Let them believe what they wish.” 

“No!” You slam your hand down on your notebook. This surprises the beast, but its face soon falls again. 

“You may stay until the rain stops but I do not want to find you here when I awake.” It grumbles before heading back into the cave again. You huff at its words but return to starting your fire. Once it was lit you bundled back up in your jacket, using your scarf as a pillow. You made a silent promise to yourself to gather more information on Spinel, even if you die trying. 

-

You wake up to the morning sun shining on your face. With a stretch and a yawn you sit up and straighten yourself out. Putting on a big smile and readjusting your satchel on your shoulder you head further into the cave. The sunlight did a good job at keeping most of the cave lit but the further back you go the harder it got to see. You kept one hand placed on the cave wall to help lead you back, stopping when you heard a shuffle somewhere to your left. 

“I told you to leave, human.” A familiar gravely voice spoke up. You turned to the sound and could see two glowing pink eyes glaring at you. 

“I do remember you saying something like that.” You reply snarkily. “However I deduced that there was no harm in not listening.” The beast growls in annoyance and you sigh in relief, having called the beasts bluff. 

“Fine, do as you please.” The glowing eyes turned and started to head back to the cave opening. You frantically turned to follow it, still keeping one hand on the cave wall until you could see again. 

Once out of the opening you made quick work of pulling out your notebook and charcoal again, ready to jot down notes when needed. In the light you could see the beast better now and it was a sight that took your breath away. It was, in fact, seven feet tall (seven and a half if you counted the gravity defying twin tails) and light pink skin was actually a thin layer of fur. Its hair was a darker more magenta color and its horns matched the light pink of its fur. Its clothes were shredded rags of purples and pinks. They looked akin to a jester’s uniform from what you could see. It wore no shoes and you could see claws adorned its toes as well as its hands. The claws are what scared you, they looked well kempt and sharp. Ready to shred in an instant. A thought came to your mind as you stared at the gem on its chest. 

“My village has only ever referred to you as a monster but I am beginning to wonder….” You trailed off and the beast turned to you as if it knew what you were asking.

“If you wish to know what I am then you shall call me ‘she’ for that is what I know myself as.” Her voice sounded annoyed as if she had to answer this question before. 

“I did not mean to offend.” You apologize. 

“And you did not.” Spinel makes her way through the forest as you make a note in your book for later. 

“So, where are you headed?” You do your best to keep up with her. Spinels strides much longer then yours. 

“To find breakfast.” She growls. 

“And what does a being of your size eat?”

“That.” She points and you follow her clawed finger to see a deer grazing on the grass. You turn back to Spinel to ask another question but see that she has disappeared. When you look back at the deer you see her eyes glowing behind it in the shadows of the trees. You make a quick note in your book about how stealthy she is for a beast of her size and realize that she really could kill you if she pleased. So why didn't she? When you look back at the deer you see that Spinel had caught it and now carried it in her mouth, much like a cat with a mouse, as she made her way back towards you. She plops onto the ground and leans against a tree as she tears into the deer. You blanch away as she rips into it with her large fangs, making quick work of the poor animal. Mouth full of raw meat, she holds out one of the deer's legs to you as an offering. You look to it then back up to her and she nudges it at you again. 

“Thank you.” You take the leg and she seems pleased. You stare at the bloodied stump of a limb for a second before tearing into it with your teeth. Chewing the raw meat slowly as Spinel watched you. You go to take another bite but stop when you hear Spinel snicker. “What?” You raise an eyebrow at her skeptically. 

“I am no fool, I know you need to cook your food before you eat it.” She confesses through suppressed giggles. Your jaw drops as you realize that she had pulled a joke on you. Half heartedly you smack her with the remains of the deer leg. 

“You foul beast.” You did your best to not laugh as you tried to insult her, her laughter becoming contagious as she fended off your weak attempts of an attack. 

-

After your hearty breakfast of deer leg and bread from your satchel you find yourself sitting in an open field, watching Spinel as she chases small rodents and butterflies. She was akin to a cat, snapping her jaw at butterflies as she chased them down. You were surprised, honestly, that she would show this side of herself as you sat there sketching in your book. You were making detailed diagrams of her, making sure you got everything perfect. It was a gut feeling but you were sure that Spinel was lonely. That was why she didn't push you away, or rather, she makes poor attempts at scaring you away.  You smile softly as you watch Spinel snap at another butterfly, the insect getting away only to come back and land on her nose. You laugh as she goes cross eyed trying to look at the offending bug, twisting her face as she tries to blow it off. With a huff of aggravation she shakes her head and gets the butterfly to leave. Only for it and several others to return and land on her face, causing her to roar out in rage. Now you were on your back, laughing so hard tears pricked at your eyes. 

You didn’t know it at the time but this is how you would spend many of your days to come. 

-

It has been about a month since you had come out into the woods looking for a terrifying beast only to find a lonely girl in need of a friend. At the moment you were enjoying her company as you wrote some notes in your book. You had filled the pages with diagrams and notes on Spinel. You had all the little details lovingly jotted down in prestien handwriting, prepared for the day you could go home and prove to your family that they were wrong. 

Your family. You frowned at the thought of them. They probably believed you to be dead. Eaten by the very beast you had befriended. 

“What's wrong, Y/N?” Spinel spoke up as you twirled your charcoal in your hands. 

“Hmm.” You looked up to her, allowing your eyes to meet. “Just thinking about my family..”

“Oh..” Her eyes fall from yours. “Do you wish to see them again?” She sounds scared and sad. It hurts you.

“No. I'm perfectly happy here.” You smile up at her, hoping she can see how genuine it is. She seems to relax at your words, returning your smile. 

The two of you start to make your way back to the cave you had begun to call home when suddenly Spinel pulled you aside, shielding you with her large body. 

“Spinel, what's wrong?” You’re pressed into her chest, her gem inches away from your face. You hear it a second after you ask, an arrow lodging itself into a tree nearby. Another comes flying as Spinel lifts you up and runs to hide behind a large tree. The second arrow lands in the ground where you two were mere seconds ago. Spinel sets you down as you hear a voice shout from somewhere on the other side of the clearing.

“Unhand her foul beast!” 

You recognized that voice, it was a friend of yours from the village. They let loose another arrow as Spinel peeks around the tree. She barely dodges it as it sinks into a tree. Spinel growls and runs out from behind the tree, going straight for her assailant. 

“Spinel, no!” You attempt to stop her but she's too fast, launching herself at your friend. You come out from behind the tree to see her locked in combat. The two struggling to overpower the other. You rush out into the opening in hopes you can stop their useless fighting. “Spinel, Thomas, STOP.” You shout and this catches the attention of your friend.

“Y/N! I knew you weren’t dead, I came to save you!” Thomas grunts as he shoves Spinel away, the beast sliding to a stop by your side. 

“You know this person?” Spinel turns to you, her voice coarse and a growl rumbling in her throat. 

“This beast speaks your name as if you are friends.” Thomas laughs. 

“Shut up! Both of you.” You stomp your foot getting the attention of both of them. “Thomas, This is Spinel, she is my friend.” You place a hand on Spinels arm and she relaxes slightly. “Spinel, this is Thomas a friend of mine from my village.” 

“Your friend?” Thomas chuckles. “A beast can have no friends, it has obviously controlled your mind into thinking you are friends.” He pulls out his hunting knife. “Do not fret, Y/N, I will save you.” Thomas moves to attack again and you can hear Spinel growling beside you but she does not move as you step in front of her. Thomas stops inches from piercing your stomach with his knife. “Do not be foolish Y/N move so I can slay this beast and you can return home.” 

“I do not wish to return home, Thomas.” You stare him down, fully aware of how close his knife is. “I do not want to return to a place that thought me a fool.” 

“Fine, I shall leave for now.” Thomas huffs. “But I will return, and you will come home with me then.” He sheathed his knife and turns, leaving without another word.  

When he is out of sight you slump against Spinel, letting out an exhausted sigh. “I do not wish to stand anymore.” You grumble and Spinel moves, scooping you up in her arms. 

“I can help with that.” Her voice is calm now, smoother than it was before, and you can’t help the blush that creeps to your face. You chose to say nothing and allow her to carry you all the way back to the cave. You were worried about Thomas, afraid he might return with more people. But for the time being you would just enjoy Spinels company and hope that you are wrong about your former friend. 

-

A week has passed since you had seen you friend Thomas. You sat by the entrance to the cave, watching the rain fall as you thought about your former friend. You truly hoped that he had gone home and told everyone you were dead. It would be better if they all believed so. Looking back you can see Spinel curled up and sleeping a few feet away. You couldn't help but think about how cute she looked, curled up like a cozy cat. She lets out a soft sigh before opening one eye to look at you lazily.

“Do you wish to join me?” Her voice was raspy with sleep, a sound you didn't know you would enjoy until now. “It must be cold over there by the entrance.” You nod and move to lay with her, curling into her side as she closed her eye and fell back to sleep. She was so soft, and warm. This surprised you oddly enough, you had expected her to be all muscle and rough fur. She had held you a few times before but you had never taken the chance to feel her. You didn't want her to think you a weirdo. Though you guessed there was nothing weirder than searching out a murderous beast in the woods and befriending them. 

The two of you rested like that for a while, her curled up on the ground and you curled into her side, when suddenly Spinel sat up. You sat up with her when you saw her nose twitching and her eyes focused on the entrance to the cave. 

“What is it?” You place a hand on her arm, looking to the cave entrance hoping you could see what she sees. 

“Humans. At least five. One of them I’ve smelled before.”

“Thomas.”

“Yes.” Spinel moves to stand up and you follow suit. You pull out your hunting knife, prepared for a fight. The two of you go to the entrance and from there you can see Thomas and four of his friends. Thomas has his bow drawn and his friends each have a short sword. 

“I will give you one last chance to return Y/N to me beast.” He shouted over the rain. “If you do not return her, I will kill you.”

“Your threat means nothing to me human.” Spinel growls. “Y/N stays here on her own volition, I am not holding her against her will.”

“She speaks the truth Thomas, I chose to stay here.” You add, stepping closer to Spinel.

“Y/N you have heard the stories, this beast has simply seduce you into wanting to stay.” Thomas call out and you roll your eyes.

“I have not been seduced you buffoon.” You yell back. “Spinel is a good friend and I will not let you harm her.”

“Enough, if you will not see reason I will simply have to kill this monster and show you that I am right.” Thomas exclaims as he lets his arrow loose. Spinel roars as she dashes towards the group of men, causing them to scatter. Thomas's arrow finds its way into her shoulder and she howls, ripping the arrow from her flesh before swatting away one of Thomas's lackies. 

“Spinel!” You move to help but she turns to you, growling.

“Stay back Y/N, I shall handle this.” She throws one of the swordsmen into a nearby tree before turning to another. 

You watch from your place inside the cave and catch Thomas making his way behind Spinel. He has another arrow knocked and with Spinel busy fighting off the swordsman he has a clear shot of her back. You don't have time to call out to your friend so you rush at Thomas, throwing your whole weight at him. He barely manages to catch you and his arrow shoots off to Spinels left. She notices and turns in time to see Thomas toss you aside. 

“Stay out of this Y/N, its for your own good.” He claims as your back slams into the ground. The air is knocked from your lungs and you pull yourself away from Thomas, wheezing.

“Keep your filthy hands off of her!” Spinel roars, dashing straight for Thomas. The boy doesn't even get a chance to knock another arrow before he is slammed to the ground. Spinel manages to rip his bow from his hands but he pulls out his small hunting knife. With Spinel on top of him the two struggle, Spinel slicing at his face with her claws and Thomas deflecting it with his knife. You manage to stand, still attempting to breath, and make your way over to them. You try to call out to Spinel but you still struggle with air, your lungs fighting you the whole way. 

One of the swordsman stand up and shakes his head. He turns to notice that Spinel is distracted with Thomas and moves to hit her from behind. In that moment you can only think of protecting Spinel and lunge in front of the man's sword as he swings down. You block it with your arm, the weapon sinking into your flesh. The man lets go of the sword and it falls to the ground as you let out a cry of pain. Spinel turns and immediately stands to catch you before you fall to the ground. Blood is pouring from your arm and the pain is almost unbearable. 

“Y/N, you fool, I told you to stay out of this.” Spinel whines, holding you close to her chest. 

“Yeah but I deduced there was no harm in not listening.” You smile up at her, struggling to keep awake. “Thomas,” You pull yourself out of Spinels hold for a moment to look at your former friend. “Leave, and tell the village that if anyone attempts to hurt Spinel again I will kill them.” Thomas looks between you and Spinel before turning tail and running. His four swordsman following suit. With that you slump forward, your consciousness fading into blackness.

-

You awake a few hours later, arm wrapped in a makeshift bandage of leaves and some minty smelling gunk. You seem to be laying on a pile of leaves and there's a fire going close by. You turn to see Spinel approaching with your waterskin.

“Oh, Y/N! You're awake.” She sounds overjoyed. “I was worried when you passed out. I know humans can't handle losing a lot of blood.”

“Im fine.” You manage to croak out as Spinel moves to sit beside you. 

“Here, I got you water.” She helps you sit up and hands you the waterskin. You gulp down half the waterskin before breaking for air. 

“Thank you.” You smile at her, cupping her cheek. You run your thumb over her cheek and marvel at how soft her fur is. To your surprise, Spinel purrs ever so slightly at your touch. “Thank you for protecting me.”

“I should be thanking you.” Spinel leans into your touch. “If you hadn’t been there, I would be dead.” You chuckle a little. 

“I would take a hundred swords for you.”

“And I would fight a hundred men for you.”

The sounds of the forest buzzing in the background, your eyes meet hers for several long moments. 

“I love you, Spinel.” The words come out so easily, like you were made to say them. 

“You would love a monster like me?” Her eyes widening a little in surprise.

“You are no monster.” You reply with such quietness only she can hear.

She leans in close and kisses you. It lingers, tender, and yet backed with so much yearning. When you pull away she follows, claiming another quick kiss before you could protest. Not that you would. 

“I love you.” Spinel smiles softly, leaning in and claiming another kiss. You let this one linger longer than the last, enjoying every second of it. 

Thomas and his crew never did return and you never did go back to your village. You did, however, spend every living day with Spinel. The two of you made yourselves a cozy little life out in the woods. You did hear about a new story they tell in the village though, when you allowed yourself to get close, the story about a girl who believed in a monster and a monster who befriended the girl. 

You didn't have the heart to tell them it was the other way around.

Imagine if Spinel started cuddling with you on the couch or in bed or something and you're watching a movie or something and shes not smiling the entire time and you're like "babe are you okay" and she smiles and says she is but her teeth are black cause she used activated charcoal toothpaste and didnt rinse her mouth out (this is a mess but its past midnight and I'm tired)

YOU JUST REMINDED ME OF SOMETHING SUPER EMBARRASSING!!

Okay so story time! i had a bad habit of remembering to brush my teeth at night when i was already half asleep (yeah idk im weird) so I'll always go to bed and just as i fall asleep I'll wake up with one thought in my head and It's "brush your teeth". So there i am half asleep going to the bathroom and i usually get the charcoal toothpaste and i knew that day my mother bought a new one cause I ran out, so I grabbed it and I brushed my teeth and went to bed.

After 2 week my mom comes to me and asks me "hey have you've been using my charcoal mask cream cause there's only a little bit left" and i had my back towards my mom and i of course go "no but we need more toothpaste" and she goes " uh no we dont you haven't even opened the toothpaste i bought you" im not joking when i say my heart dropped. I slowly turn my head to face my mom and fucking lo and behold there in her hand was what i thought was the charcoal toothpaste she got me but no it was in fact a charcoal face cream thing.

Autistic Reclaimed Characters Masterlist

I’m getting back into making reclaimed characters/OCs by reclaiming autistic characters from media. 

Character’s name (full name, if given): Christopher John Francis Boone

Apparent age: 15

Gender: Cis boy

Source material (and why it’s bad, this part is optional): The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time (which is a best-selling mystery novel and a drama/mystery play) and it's bad because it is ableist (the author did little research about autism and autistic people), normalizes the abuse of autistic people, and the book has a stereotypical depiction of autism. Mark Haddon portrayed the protagonist Christopher as elitist, intolerant, dismissive, unconcerned for others, unsympathetic, remorselessly violent, and not noticing or responding to insults and abuse. He is ableist towards other disabled kids at his school and looks down on them while also looking down on non-disabled people. Christopher is mistreated (abused, neglected, abandoned, deceived, gaslit, and insulted), often by authority figures like his parents and most other characters either overlook or actively attempt to justify this. His father Ed lied about his mother Judy being dead to him for two years. Ed also killed his ex-girlfriend's dog Wellington with a garden fork and receives no consequences for doing so except for causing a rupture in Christopher's relationship with him, and he tries to pressure Christopher to repair it by focusing exclusively on how much he is hurt by Christopher. Haddon also portrayed Christopher's parents in a sympathetic light even though the novel is from Christopher's point of view and despite Ed and Judy being abusive and neglectful to Christopher. Siobhan (Christopher's mentor and teacher) is only present in the early parts of the book and absent from the rest of the book without an explanation; the author could have used her to show that Christopher does not deserve to be abused and neglected, but he did not. The novel presents the autistic protagonist as responsible for his parent's divorce and being mistreated by others while showing that he is unaffected by this mistreatment, and portrays abuse, abandonment, and gaslighting as normal and justified. 

Pictures of character:

He takes pride in his intelligence and views himself as rational and logical though he can be insensitive, cold, reckless, irritable, irrational, and illogical at times. He tends to have emotional outbursts, lash out, bottle up his emotions, and split due to trauma, but he is working on expressing his emotions in healthier ways. Christopher used to be violent, break into people's houses and vehicles, steal, vandalize property, and have an ableist and elitist attitude before he got the proper help he needed. He cares about the people he is close to, treating them with kindness and is protective of them. His samefood is strawberry milkshakes. He prefers to use a stress ball or something similar to stim. Christopher is a trauma, physical/verbal/emotional abuse, and emotional neglect survivor.

——————–

Character’s name (full name, if given): Caitlin Ann Smith

Apparent age: 10 (going on to 11)

Gender: Cis girl

Source material (and why it’s bad, this part is optional): Mockingbird (which is a young adult novel and a theatre play) and it's bad because there were multiple moments when the main character Caitlin's behavior is too textbook, the author's writing clearly leaned to a clinical view of autism spectrum disorder, and it was written particularly for a neurotypical audience. Kathryn Erskine preferred the clinical research over the thoughts, feelings, and writings of autistic people. Caitlin's epiphany is problematic because it did not feel like her own, it was inspiration porn due to her having to "learn" empathy, and it feels like the epiphany that ableist organizations like Autism Speaks and neurotypicals who fail to understand autistic people want autistic people to have. While the book was written with good intentions, Erskine regurgitated the "no empathy" myth, people around the autistic character are constantly trying to "fix" her and this is shown to be a good thing, and the book ended up being inspiration porn for neurotypicals.

Pictures of character:

Birthday: In the book, her birthday is unknown so I'll make it November 20

Sexuality: Questioning

Personality: Caitlin is intelligent, cheerful, socially awkward, pedantic, often blunt, and comes off as arrogant without meaning to. She tends to get excited and passionate about things she enjoys. As a result, she tends to infodump. She has black-and-white thinking, hypermorality, and fluctuating empathy. Caitlin can come off as tactless at times due to being brutally honest, but does not mean to hurt people's feelings and will try to clear things up if there are any resulting problems. She also does not always understand social cues and expectations, but she tries her best. Caitlin is more caring than she appears to be. She is autistic and is recovering from depression that is caused by the death of her mother who died of cancer and PTSD that is caused by the death of her brother Devon who died in a school shooting and being bullied in school.

Likes: Her special interests are drawing, dictionaries, and To Kill a Mockingbird. She also likes art, making charcoal drawings, pastel colors, the colors black and white, black and white TV shows and movies, cartoons (especially Disney), Bambi, her friends (especially her best friend Michael), small spaces (they bring her comfort), hiding under a dresser (her "hidey-hole") and bed, and stuffing her head under couch cushions.

Dislikes: Bright colors (neon colors especially), saturated colors, bright lights, noisy places, maintaining direct eye contact, dirt, bugs, wool clothing, fuzzy clothing, live-action TV shows and movies that are not black and white, saying that she does not have or needs to learn empathy, people not communicating with her, bullying, school shootings, and school shooters.

Fears or triggers: Really loud noises (sensory trigger), lights buzzing (sensory trigger), wool clothing (sensory trigger), fuzzy clothing (sensory trigger), gunshots (trigger), and being called "weirdo" or "freak" (trigger).

Gender: Cis girl

Source material (and why it’s bad, this part is optional): Rain Reign (which is a children's novel) and it's bad because the author Ann M. Martin wrote it in Autism Voice, the narrative is stereotypical, and Rose is explicitly framed as other due to being portrayed as overly literal and the book's constant focus on her obsession with homonyms, numbers, prime numbers, weather patterns, and rules. It also stereotypes autistic people as not experiencing emotions, unfeeling, uncaring, unable to be hurt, and overly rational. In general, Martin denied Rose emotional agency and wrote a story about an autistic character for a neurotypical audience.

Character’s name (full name, if given): Willem Edward Smith

Apparent age: 12

Gender: Cis boy

Source material (and why it’s bad, this part is optional): How to Fly with Broken Wings (which is a children's fiction book) and it's bad because the author Jane Elson wrote Willem as stereotypically autistic without naming him as such. Willem seems to check off all of the diagnostic boxes of autism without having much of a personality beyond this. Willem isn’t always treated with respect or dignity, particularly when he’s reduced to facts about airplanes and telling people that he can fly. In the middle of the book, Willem suddenly becomes a magical autistic detective by pulling out several pieces of physical evidence and lines of argument to prove that one person wasn’t involved in gang riots, although these abilities are never previously mentioned. Elson doesn't fully address him being mistreated at school. Sasha describes him in her first chapter as “one of life’s special people” and regularly refers to him as her special friend as their relationship develops. Willem is relentlessly bullied at school and in danger at home, although no other characters do anything about this. Other kids make him jump off of objects or buildings and there are rival gangs in the area who are also interested in manipulating him. In class, his teacher frequently singles him out by requiring him to make two friends instead of completing equations for homework like his peers. The teacher tries to mix up students to get kids to interact with Willem and pulls each aside to say that she wants them to show him friendship, though she recognizes that forcing him to make friends in class encouraged him to interact with his bullies and put him in numerous dangerous situations, and she apologizes by the end of the book. The assignment led to Willem being deceived or put in dangerous situations more than once, and the author offers no clear condemnation of this. Willem’s main bully apologizes for his actions a few times but immediately returns to hurting Willem, and when he eventually befriends him it’s in order to gain favor with the girl he likes. Many adults apologize to Willem-- including his teacher, who recognizes that forcing him to make friends put his life in danger; not that her treatment of him was emotionally manipulative. Also, there is no further discussion of any emotional repercussions.

He infodumps regularly and has trouble distinguishing when the other person has heard enough or when the conversation is over. Willem relates to people by using the colors of the traffic lights. He tends to take things more literally and struggles with understanding facial expressions. Willem gets very anxious in stressful situations. Willem gets very anxious in stressful situations. He stims by counting, rambling about anything, shaking his hands, and flapping his arms and hands. Willem is a trauma and physical/verbal/emotional abuse survivor. He is autistic, has anxiety, and is recovering from PTSD that is caused by being bullied at school by other kids, being emotionally manipulated by his teacher, and the trauma from the gang riots.

He also likes his dog Buster, Magic Man Archie, tea, digestive biscuits, cookies, his grandmother Gracie, Sasha, Peter Pan, Arthur (his favorite character is Carl Gould), and traffic lights.

Dislikes: Bullies, gangs, riots, being made fun of, being excluded/left out, people who are too close to him, Finn Maison and his gang the Beckham Estate Boyz, being assigned friends, being forced into a "buddy system", being manipulated or deceived, shouting, being kissed, and his food touching.

Character’s name (full name, if given): Colin Fischer

Apparent age: 14

Gender: Cis boy

Source material (and why it’s bad, this part is optional): Colin Fischer (which is a young adult novel) and it’s bad because despite being written by an autistic author--Zack Sentz--and Colin being likable, the book distances the readers from the perspective of him by othering him and casting him as incomprehensible and weird. Colin is rarely seen as anything but intrigued, confused, or panicked, and that reinforces the damaging, ableist notion of autistic people not having emotions. He is also depicted by Sentz and Ashley Edward Miller to be a super special autistic with “mysterious skills”. Colin’s brother Danny loathing him and their parents is portrayed with no nuance and no emotions from Colin’s end. In the book, Asperger’s syndrome is mentioned as being “related to” autism rather than being part of the autism spectrum. His school is said to be supportive and accommodating, but there is not much proof to support this as the narrative appears to condone the ableist treatment of the protagonist. For example, when Colin is purposefully taunted in class and ends up barking from stress, the principal accepts that it wasn’t his fault, but she also threatens Colin with punishment if he “acts out” again. Another example is his gym teacher Mr. Turrentine ignoring a note from his therapy team that he can skip gym. He also aligns with the popular image of “high-functioning” autistic people as being a socially awkward, math/logic/train-obsessed, straight, white, middle-class teenage boy. His symptoms become less extreme at the end of the book, which is seen as a positive development; this portrays autistic traits as undesirable and negative.

Birthday: In the book, his birthday is unknown so I’ll make it September 22

Sexuality: Disordinebisexual biromantic, leans towards females

Personality: Colin is curious, inquisitive, and friendly. He enjoys being organized and tends to have meltdowns when not being organized. Colin has slow reflexes and activities like basketball, soccer, playing catch, monkey bars, riding a bicycle, and gym class are difficult for him while activities like jumping and bouncing are easier for him. He speaks in a monotone voice, but talks fast when excited. Colin is often very literal and has trouble detecting sarcasm. He stims by barking when stressed or overwhelmed, jumping especially when happy or excited, and making repeated clicking sounds. He usually has a hard time telling when people are upset because facial expressions don't come naturally to him, and does not always understand social cues and expectations. Colin pet regresses to cope with stress and being autistic, disabled, and otherwise neurodivergent. He is autistic, nearsighted, a dog regressor, and has gross motor dyspraxia and hypotonia.

Likes: His special interests are science, aliens, trampolines, SHAED (his favorite song is Trampoline), asparagus, Sherlock Holmes, and Star Trek. He also likes math, trains, jumping, bouncy balls, dogs, his notebook, repeated clicking sounds like pens, stacking things, and patterns (especially finding them).

Dislikes: The color blue, blue things, being touched if he does not initiate it or if he is unprepared for it, being touched when stressed, direct eye contact (he finds it uncomfortable), phones ringing loudly, the sound of the school bell, mushy foods, high-pitched voices, dolls, gym class, sports, perfume counters at store entrances, being made fun of or taunted, bullying, ableist people, having his infodumps be interrupted, his room and belongings being tampered with, Rudy Moore, and biphobes/bimisics.

Fears or triggers: Sudden loud noises (sensory trigger), phones ringing loudly (sensory trigger), the sound of the school bell (sensory trigger), perfume counters at store entrances (sensory trigger), high-pitched voices (sensory trigger), mushy foods (sensory trigger), and dolls (fear).

I lost track of time and I’ve been busy but here is that OC I was too afraid to post a week ago XD. His unofficial name is Snags.

I have a  bio for him but its a work in progress: Snags isn’t a gem, he is an alien with a physiology similar to charcoal, originally from a tree/plant race called Viridi.  Thousands of years before the gem war on Earth, his home was colonized by the Diamonds, resulting in Snags becoming a drifter  before he was found by Emerald. (I’ve had a headcanon for a while that there is at least some sapient life on other worlds. Maybe not a plethora but a species here or there.)

Emerald planned to give him over to the Diamonds as a gift due to his unusual power of creating art that becomes real. But Snags was able to escape Emerald by way of more adventures and making a few friends, one day finding himself on Earth.

Personality wise he is quiet. Not in a overly shy way but he talks infrequently, choosing to communicate more through body language. So as  a reference think Big Mac from My Little Pony, about the same amount of talking.

Snags’ design is based on a lot of things. A mishmash of characters I just...remember seeing on television once. Like Koko the Clown, Country from Cattanooga Cats and scarecrows in general.  

Eventually Snags meets Spinel and they become friends and dance partners at the Turnin Tumbler, a club in Little Homeworld.
