I Have A Lot Going On 🫠

he was neurodivergent the whole way through babyyyyyy

DDIB MEMBRANE I'VE BEE WANTNGIKNG TO MAKE THAT COMPARISON FOR MONTHS. I'VE EVEN QUOTED GREG SAYING "MY POOR INSANE SON". DIB. he sees himself as dipper much like how dib would see himself as dipper. this isn't much of a spoiler because Yeah Of Course He's Dib

as for how often he gets sick and whatnot that's pretty mundane so i'll say that he calls in sick and would rather be absent than tardy. if he can't get to school on time he'll use a sick day

there's a whole. universe. outside of the fic!! steven demayo was alive for 16 years before the isekai!! that's a lot of years to be curious about!! i love him and i'd love to explore him outside of the specific scenario where he gets isekai'd!! that's not to say you suddenly have to change the way you send asks of course i totally get being stuck on one topic beeeeeen there dude </2

How does he deal with paparazzis?

Weirdest thing he's been caught doing/eating? Any mental breakdown caught on livestream?

Name he gives to his guitar?

Has he composed/released his own songs? Does he listen to his own music?

What genre does he listen to? What are his favorite genres to play on his own, is it widly opposite to what he plays on stage/on record?

Did Greg/Mr Universe retire to leave the place to Kid Universe or is he still practicing? Are they in the same band?

Does Steven still have his/play ukulele?

What are his favorite guitar picks?

What instruments does he know how to play?

Does he meet Actor!Ford and they vent to eachother about being popular?

Does he still meet Connie/Does she even like Steven's/Greg's music?

At what age was he officially a child star (aka joined his dad's band/had his own group created)

I mean important question i should have thought of earlier/placed higher but: Does he enjoy the popularity? Has he ever thought about faking his death and running away? Can he even exit his house and go about his day without being recognised and assaulted by fans and paparazzis?

Relationships with the gems?

Can he... like... attack with his guitar by channeling his magic into it when he's playing?

And as with every of your stevens... How many disorders/issues does our disorder star have and how much of it is self-projected?

Some form of aroaceness? And if so how much does it piss off the people magazines' paparazzis?

His favorite creechur? Does he have like a mascot or something?

...Okay i think i got all the ones i thought up when i saw kid universe's first post, plus some others i came up with as i was writing this ask, i think that'll be enough for now

dont tell anyone leene but you're my favorite mutual

How does he deal with paparazzis?

smile and wave! god, he hates paparazzi. but he's found the most success in just letting them get their pictures and at least making sure they're good ones that won't get him any negative attention

Weirdest thing he's been caught doing/eating? Any mental breakdown caught on livestream?

weirdest thing he's been caught doing would probably be something involving animals. i think it'd be something like leading a group of duckling across the street and then running around the city trying to find their mom because they imprinted on him and he can't just have 12 ducklings

eating would probably be a slice of pizza he found on the sidewalk. he has a personal chef. he has three credit cards. he still will eat literally any food he finds anywhere

mental breakdown in public- he freaked out in an olive garden because he was already having a rough day and he thought someone spiked his drink because it tasted funny. more on that later

Name he gives to his guitar?

i think he mostly calls her pet names like sweetheart and darling. very loving guitar papa. but her official name is fender

Has he composed/released his own songs? Does he listen to his own music?

he does release his own music! entirely done by him. his debut song was an incredibly heartfelt song about grief and letting go he wrote at the age of thirteen suspiciously right after the discontinuation of his favorite ice cream brand

What genre does he listen to? What are his favorite genres to play on his own, is it widly opposite to what he plays on stage/on record?

all of my stevens have similar music tastes, and that's veeeery broad ones. they'll listen to pretty much anything you put in front of them and chances are they'll love it. this steven writes and listens to louder, faster-paced songs for the most part. things like set it off and fall out boy are his favorites. you didn't hear it from me, but i might be working with my brother to write and compose (and synthesize up some vocals with yi xi since i can't sing nor would zach callison probably be interested in a collab) a song for him!! also zach callison does music and i imagine the stuff he makes is like that but also i can't listen to zach callison because he's steven's va and he sounds like steven and i love steven so much his music makes me want to puke so take it with a pillar of salt

Did Greg/Mr Universe retire to leave the place to Kid Universe or is he still practicing? Are they in the same band?

greg is still in the game, they're in the same band and work together on most things. steven even co-wrote the album he released after lapis' bullshit (i wont go into detail to avoid spoilers) "water witch"!

Does Steven still have his/play ukulele?

he does!! i imagine it shows up in songs a lot, too. he loves it. it's his other baby

What are his favorite guitar picks?

he tends not to use picks, but he has a few with the star from the merch designs on them and he likes those

What instruments does he know how to play?

steven can play so many fucking instruments in canon it's stupid. i like to think he can pick up any instrument and figure it out in a couple hours

Does he meet Actor!Ford and they vent to eachother about being popular?

im beginning to see a pattern in my au creation

Does he still meet Connie/Does she even like Steven's/Greg's music?

connie is "only allowed to listen to classical music and movie soundtracks". she couldn't listen to it if she wanted to. so no i don't think they meet. or maybe they do. im not sure yet

At what age was he officially a child star (aka joined his dad's band/had his own group created)

this im veeeery not sure of. i'd like to say 10 but people only started taking him seriously as a musician when he wrote that grief song i mentioned earlier

I mean important question i should have thought of earlier/placed higher but: Does he enjoy the popularity? Has he ever thought about faking his death and running away? Can he even exit his house and go about his day without being recognised and assaulted by fans and paparazzis?

HE FUCKING HATES BEING POPULAR. it makes him so paranoid. it makes his secret life as a crystal gem so much harder to hide. it is a fucking nightmare. i do not think he's constantly plagued with paparazzi but there's a good chance that when he goes out a photo of it will crop up on social media. i doodled something about that earlier!

Relationships with the gems?

same as it is in canon!

Can he… like… attack with his guitar by channeling his magic into it when he's playing?

I WANTED TO MENTION THIS!! YES!! i doubt he could do this in canon but it's so cool,, yes he can attack with his guitar but he doesn't bring her into fights if he can help it

And as with every of your stevens… How many disorders/issues does our disorder star have and how much of it is self-projected?

okay so im giving him the classic set of ocd, bpd, adhd, autism, depression, and anxiety. but! he has a fun new thing! not a new disorder, but his already there disorders doing an unholy fusion dance to give him thoughts that border on psychosis! he will convince himself that someone's in his window and curl up under his covers crying because if he checks they'll know he's in there and they'll come in and they'll-

and it's just very unrealistic shit that he 100% convinces himself of and i do believe that's either ocd or bpd doing that. it's a baaad case of it. also that's projected I Do That guys lmao

Some form of aroaceness? And if so how much does it piss off the people magazines' paparazzis?

he has the "i do not fucking car e" brand of aroace! i don't know what specific microlabel that might be but he just. doesn't really seek people out usually. he doesn't mind kissing and whatnot (definitely 100% asexual though) but unless someone comes up to him or he decides he feels like it that day he just keeps to himself. gossip magazines are always going back and forth between him being aroace and him having a fling with some mystery person or something stupid of the like

His favorite creechur? Does he have like a mascot or something?

i haven't assigned him a creeter yet but i think he would be particularly captivated by small little critters. ones that are sweet and kind like ducklings. i don't think he'd have any knd of mascot animal though i think he's critor enough for that

meet kid universe!! steven in a world where greg isn't a fucking failure and his music career as mr universe actually takes off. so steven is a child star which im sure will go wonderfully for him considering how young and charming musicians are treated!!

mandatory linking his artfight profile

and then extruding his weird little pencil neck

LOOK AT HIS NECK

This Pride, let's remember our roots. Pride started as a riot against discrimination, oppression, and police brutality. Our rights are being taken away, and the only way we'll get them back is to stand up for ourselves.
