Green Cubic Zirconia

I believe there is a canonical version of this: vein. Holly Blue says to the Amethysts "now go pretend your filthy vein of Quartz is capable of gratitude!". In geology, veins are distinct sheetlike crystallized minerals within a rock. This could refer to Gems from the same kindergarten or a row within one.

DAY NINETEEN: ANIMATED TV SHOW

HOLY SHIT SORRY THIS ONE TOOK SO LONG TO POST. I just had some serious lack of motivation for the past month. I'm back now! Here's the fusion of Fire Agate and Crazy Lace: Lightning Ridge Opal.

Now I know what you're thinking: hey Wynter, that's not a quartz fusion what gives? Well, I don't think the components that make Crazy Lace aren't quartz gems since they lack horns. I don't think it would be too bad to cheat a bit with the names. Also it's nice to do some funky fusion designs again!

Thank you, Steven Universe.

This show has been such an important influence in my art style and creative process. I grew so much as an artist over the 7 years I watched it, and it’ll always have a home in my heart. <3
