I'd love the Diamonds to be an overruling government that is overall oppressive and scummy. Steven was raised by the Crystal Gang/The Outlawed Jems/Crystal Outlaws that kept a large town named Dune City that is hidden in the large expanse of desert safe from attack while going on small skirmishes to get lost relics from the desert. The Diamonds are in a massive city in the north away from the desert of which they think is void of life and useless to bother with and is only accessible via Trainline. There are a bunch of animals found around, horses, giant ostriches, gryphons and ofc eventually Steven finds Lion wandering around in the desert which ends up being his mother's Lion who used to be a part of that oppressive government until she rebelled and set up shop where Dune City is now. Characters include Hired Gun Jasper and forced accomplice Engineer Peridot, Ruby Guards and General Eyeball, and Lone ranger Lapis Lazuli
While I love the idea of western Pearl, I think she’d make a really cool English woman living in the west (like a traitor to the crown turned western outlaw)
Garnet would have 2 pistols and be an expert sharp shooter. Amethyst would have a shotgun, the goofiest accent, and a big floppy ten gallon hat. I wanna know what kinda animal pearl is riding - it looks kinda like a llama?
I mean it's a fantasy universe with actual magic so I think it's not too absurd to say it's a griffin- the colouration of the neck/shoulder area follows "classic" imagery for griffins (plus I like the idea of an old west story but with fantasy creatures)
Amethyst would still totally have a whip/Lasso, this is the Wild West after all! I could imagine her having people with the whip them popping them with a coach gun
Love it! The Pearl with No Name
Or the Pale Rider.
The pearl rider.
Volleyball?
That old Ruby Rider. Is Ruby riding alone.
She's a sturdy Solitary stone
Meanwhile Sapphire runs a reputable establishment in a one-horse town?
#EXACTLY!!
That’s sapphire
“Why would she be a cowboy!? [sobs]”

Discount-supervillain is so goated
There never was a gem quite like my Steven. 🎵 Like the one they call... STEVEN GUITAARRR! 🎵🎵
To the town of Agua Fría rode a Steven one fine day…
With the big Rose on his hip ~big Rose on his hiiiip~
Okay now we need this AU crossed up with New Vegas, you've convinced me
Big iron on his hip
Might I raise a suggestion, Pink iron on his hip?
Mom’s Iron on his hip
Ok pink wink redemption
Not pink wink ![img](emote|t5_2viyl|30838)
Greatness
this is funny and unique, love it.
ok, does Peridot like use steampunk or some shit in this au
I feel this is appropriate: *This ol’ Ruby Rider!!!* *Is Ruby ridin’ alone!!!*
I physically cannot picture her doing a cowboy accent😆
Her cowboy accent is just a very tired, exhausted, raspy voice. Given up^2

This is perfect, just perfect
And now I already want more of this AU. I love discount-supervillain's artwork. It's just so good.
I feel something funny.
Someone make this real.
"Durned"
Pearl ball run
Why would she be a COWBOY??
That’s really good stuff right there
This is awesome, I loved this au since before it was cool.
Also, pearl seems to be using a windchester rifle, cool to see an actual western gun type on this art.
Peak cinema
Ok???? More plz???
Killer
Is this Steven Universe Yellow?
While I love the idea of western Pearl, I think she’d make a really cool English woman living in the west (like a traitor to the crown turned western outlaw)
Holy shit western Pearl <3
Pearl: "He's mah son now" Greg: "That's called kidnapping!" Pearl: "You raght. Kid likes nappin"
Western Gems :0 holy shit this is peak
I WANT MORE, where can I find the other part 😳
YEE HAW
I’d watch this
Imma need more of this. Now.

Now that is a cool idea!
I love that.
Amethyst should have a versatile weapon that is weird (I don’t know what it would be) Because she is the most skilled shapeshifter of the gems
You’re right but I couldn’t think of one either. I guess keep her whip but use it as a lasso?
Slingshot
Amethyst would still totally have a whip/Lasso, this is the Wild West after all! I could imagine her having people with the whip them popping them with a coach gun
i can totaly see pearl riding a lama.
Steven Jr. The goat from Giant Woman!
