Summary
When Druid, a far older variant of the hybrid known as 'Steven Universe,' finally passes on, the last thing he expects to discover is a life after his supposed death.
At first, he isn't sure what to make of his new surroundings... but as he starts to explore this unfamiliar version of Homeworld and the bizarre gem incubation program it boasts— populated entirely by alternate versions of himself— he can't help but be drawn to the pleasure-filled prospects of joining this program as a 'matriarch' himself.

The Matriarch Protocol by Astraliies (Novantinuum), NugatorySheep
Fandom Steven Universe (Cartoon)
27 May 2025
Summary
The five core tenets of the Matriarch Protocol are as follows:
1. In line with current era standards, production of new generations of Gems may ONLY take place through official Homeworld incubation centers, and as outlined in the following document. The operation of unsanctioned Kindergartens or incubation centers is strictly prohibited.2. Gem type distribution shall be based on an evolving schedule of supply and demand. Some types may have incubation selection temporarily suspended if essence requirements are a limiting factor, or if said type has hit certain population thresholds.
3. Regardless of type, all new Gems shall be incubated with use of His Radiance, Pink Diamond’s essence as one of the base ingredients. He is to be the core progenitor of all Gemkind.
4. The bearers of these incubations will be known as “matriarchs,” and are to be selected as per His Radiance’s preferences.
5. All matriarchs must verbally consent and be deemed sound of mind prior to their participation in the program.

Summary
He is dying alone in that forest and that is what he wants.
…It is probably what he wants.
And so he continues.

The shockwave emitted from that thought alone seems to have scared all the fish away.
…Understood. Let us not think about that.
And so he stays.

AU where Steven's halves never quite fully fused back, at least in their head (and they took a pretty long time to notice that)

Summary
“Happy New Year, sweetheart,” she whispers, her breath tickling against his beard.
And in response, his brow creases inwards so sharply that it’s all but impossible to ignore the building tension behind his eyes, the stressful specter of a migraine yet to come.
“Stars… it’s that time already—?”

Summary
“No, no, please— Steven, it’s not ‘nothing,’ I’m curious, now.” Tone bursting with genuine warmth, he plants a singular hand on his shoulder, trying to coax him to open up again. “I genuinely want to know.”
And stars, is the sheer, uncharacteristic vulnerability glistening within his dear friend’s warm brown irises when next he opens his mouth almost enough to scramble the very code of his core-most being.
“You sure about that, Flower Boy?”
_
A holiday gift fic inspired by the story "Drift Together," in which Steven and his Gem- Floret- are split at birth and live entirely separate lives before ultimately reuniting in high school.
