Summary
Bismuth has always found Pearl absolutely fascinating since the very first day they met. Before long, Bismuth finds herself falling in love with her. Even after braving times of war and fighting through life’s many complications, her feelings remain unchanged.
But their lives are complicated, and the different ways they view themselves and the world around them set the two apart. Over five thousand years have passed by the time they reach a place where they are able to fully understand each other.
It’s a story of fondness and friendship, tears and separation, love and heartbreak. It takes time, it takes work. But with each other, perhaps it’s possible.

((This is a post-Battle For Mewni AU where Star is unable to escape the wand. The emotional fallout is about as devastating as you would expect. Tags will be updated as necessary and as characters appear.))

Summary
Tom and Maddie never could have expected a little blue alien hedgehog to come crashing into their lives, nor did they expect to get as attached as they did. Bringing him into their family would be one of the most spur-of-the-moment decisions they would ever make, but also one they would never regret.

Summary
The earth had once been another indistinguishable planet to be colonized, just like any other. Yellow had figured that this would be the perfect opportunity to introduce Pink Diamond--the youngest, most inexperienced diamond of them all--to the process of planetary conquering. It had been difficult, since Pink was overly-sentimental about even the smallest of things, but it seemed as if she were eventually understanding it. If only she had realized...

Summary
You could argue that this AU is named this way because motherhood is a prominent theme, but that’s giving me too much credit. I was listening to a lot of Mother Mother while brainstorming for this and the name Motherverse sounded kinda cool I guess, so it ended up sticking. This AU is for any SVTFOE fics I publish that fall into the alternate timeline present in The Butterfly Who Lost Her Wings, the notable changes being:
- Everything in the show after Battle for Mewni is not considered canon unless shown otherwise
- The timeline and magic system is somewhat rewritten (most of which is in the background. I’d share more but that would be spoiler territory!)
- The Blood Moon works quite a bit differently
- Moon is a much more prominent character, along with some others
- Star, Marco and Tom are all 15 by the time BfM happens due to aforementioned timeline changes- Words:

Summary
Shadowheart has worked her ass off to get to where she is, even if it doesn’t look like much. She’s got a job and a place of her own, and that would be enough if she wasn’t pushing thirty and struggling way more than she wants to admit. So when her estranged adoptive mother offers her money in exchange for a little bit of deceit, it is all too tempting. And if all it takes is pretending to date her best friend and dealing with a few patriars, what could go wrong?

Summary
Shadowheart both hears and feels the feral rumble work its way out of Lae’zel’s throat, and her head feels light at the prospect of a little rough handling. It’s so easy to push Lae’zel’s buttons, but that might work in her favor this time.

Or, Lae'zel and Shadowheart are both in shitty cults, insult each other, then fuck like animals.
