honestly the factions was what got me interested in it in the first place and setting the unfortunate implications regarding divergence being essentially biological aside it’s really cool and i love anything that involves putting characters from my main fandom into aus that require character-based sorting

now ok so keeping in mind that i’m a heathen who only saw the first movie-

Pearl: born/raised abnegation, tested abnegation, chose dauntless because that’s where rose was and pearl is so gay it physically hurts. pretty shit at the physical part of it at first until rose started helping her and she started working smarter, not harder. excellent tactician.

Amethyst: born/raised dauntless, probably figured out how to fail her placement test completely without getting a divergent flag, mostly because she didn’t want to know who she’s “supposed” to be, chose amity less because of friendliness and more because she figured it’d be easy enough to slack off without getting in trouble. mostly because how badly can you fuck up digging in the dirt, though. probably runs an underground fighting ring in the bowels of the city at night though, disguised so that everyone seems to think she’s just a Really Pissed Off factionless. i don’t know why the peacefulness serum doesn’t affect her. she probably eats her food raw and disappears a lot. might be divergent but literally nobody knows.

Garnet: born/raised... ooh thats tough uh. probably dauntless. tested divergent (dauntless/amity/candor) and chose amity because she just wants to survive and be happy the way she is, okay. her superiors in dauntless were pissed off and very confused because she was good and there she is off to pick flowers. what the fuck, garnet. but she’s happy

Rose: Dauntless, Dauntless, Dauntless. not even because it’s the Cool Kids Group but because Rose “YOLO” Quartz is gonna fuck shit up AND be Faction Mom all at once.

Jasper: also dauntless/dauntless/dauntless because of course. not happy when amethyst bailed but mostly because rose supported her and like. rose. pay attention to me lOOK IM SO MUCH BETTER THAN THAT- okay you’re walking away now alright that’s fine we’LL PICK THIS BACK UP LATER MEET ME IN THE PIT, ROSE QUARTZ

Peridot: Gay Ass Dauntless Fangirl. born/raised candor. tested erudite. chose erudite. still really bad at lying. has discovered at least three different secret entrances to dauntless training rooms.

Lapis Lazuli: lapis is in that weird in-between stage where i’d need to know more about the world to be able to place her properly because she is Complicated. but with the powers of Fandomy Bullshit i’d probably say born/raised either erudite or abnegation but tested divergent and was imprisoned because of it for experimentation. considers herself factionless. is mostly pissed off and dead inside. could likely kick all our asses.

steven is fourteen but he lives with his dad in amity, will test dauntless, and choose abnegation.

the maheswarens are erudite; connie will test erudite but choose abnegation.

ruby is dauntless/dauntless/dauntless

sapphire is erudite/candor/candor
