What is Steven Universe?
Airing since late 2013, Steven Universe is an original series on Cartoon Network, created by Rebecca Sugar (who was best known for her work on adventure time, including What Was Missing & Simon and Marcy). It follows the story of Steven Universe, a young boy who is half human, and half Gem (a race of magical... well, gemstones!) as he tries to master his powers and protect the world from various threats. Or just help out in the local donut shop.
Episodes run from magical adventure to intense character study to just fun little stories, and as the series progresses, it's not afraid to delve into some serious drama. But it always manages to stay optimistic, and usually you'll find a great song or three too!
... but if you're here, odds are high you already know that much, right? So here's a thread where we can discuss episodes, theories, share fanart and fanfic, discuss ships, gemsonas, all that good stuff
Rules:
1. Be the person Steven believes you can be. Be respectful, be polite, don't steal art/etc, just the basics, y'know?
2. Keep things El-appropriate. That's... pretty self-explanatory xD This includes links to fanart and fanfiction, as well as videos! (and a tip for youtube videos, add 'repeat' after youtube to direct to a version without comments. Example: https://www.youtuberepeat.com/watch?v=yREa2UyiTwU)
3. Art may be reposted once every three pages. (I may raise or lower this, depending on how fast this thread moves). Please do not leave critique ('you should do this' or the like) unless the artist/author requests crit.
4. If you are sharing fanart/fiction you did not create, please do so by linking to the source, not an image in-thread! (If it's your own work, then you may post an image on-thread ^^)
5. One image per post, please. (As in, only one posted image/gif/etc per post, links can go however many you like. This is to be kind to users with slower computers/internet caps, the loading can get pretty awful ^^; )
6. Not a spoiler free zone! Sorry to say D: But yeah, while you can hide recent spoilers (like, after a new episode's just aired) with the [color=transparent] trick if you want, it's not required.
7.Rules may be changed at any point because Shepard often overlooks things |D
I'm not going to be keeping a member list or the like, sinceeeee honestly I just don't see the point xD If you're a fan, you're a fan, that's all there is to it x3 However, I will occasionally run polls, maybe even contests! And of course, a little suggested intro for those new to the thread
