Spoilers ahead if you haven't watched Steven Universe Future.
Thinking of setting up a roleplay based on Steven Universe Future that takes place predominantly at Little Homeschool or nearby. Characters would mostly be Gems adjusting to Era 3. These could be regular Gems getting used to freedom, Gems who used to be corrupted and have been healed, or even some of the former forced fusions that have now been prepared (or any other concept you can think of, really, that would fit in with what we know of canon). There could even be some who aren't so happy about the new order of things and take a more antagonistic role- maybe Gems who used to be high-ranking who have now lost their power, or just don't know what to do with themselves now that they no longer serve the Diamonds. Humans characters who want to interact with Gems and try to help them integrate (or humans who are not so fond of the idea) are also welcome. For the most part, this would be a more day-to-day, Gems-trying-to-adjust-to-normal-life sort of thing, but there could definitely be some fighting and things like that; just probably not on the planet-shattering scale that the main characters of the show usually deal with, since this is supposed to be a bit more behind-the-scenes.
Debating if I would want this to be on the forums or a Discord server for something a bit faster-paced. Also not sure about the style level, whether casual, advanced, or free. Would definitely want there to be character depth and development (that's what it's all about, right?) but I feel like expecting really long posts might bog down a roleplay based on a storytelling style that mostly revolves around fast-paced and in-depth character interaction rather than scene-setting. So, that's open for discussion.
Finally, while this will be all OCs (though it would also be fine if you're interested on expanding on background characters from the show who only make brief appearances- for example, the Lapis Lazuli or some of the Rose Quartzes) you should definitely strive to keep them as much in line with what we know of the canon Gems as possible, including keeping their backstories, roles, appearances, and personality traits in line with what we know of those types of Gems. Considering there are plenty of minerals, rocks, and gemstones that have not been used in the series, though, there should be plenty of room to explore and expand.
Also open for some groups/parts of the story taking place in places besides Little Homeschool or even Earth- even though that will probably be the centerpoint of the roleplay, there can certainly be other subplots and things going on in the world besides just Gem College lol.
