Steven is an obvious choice. Their relationship has so much potential for growth and exploration in fanfiction. Steven's kindness and ability to forgive can really help Spinel on her journey of self - discovery.
In some fanfictions, Spinel might become more confident. After leaving her past behind, she could start to believe in herself more and not let others' opinions bring her down as easily.
One common theme is friendship. Spinel, being a new character in the RWBY world, often forms bonds with the main characters. These friendships are explored, showing how different personalities come together.
One great Spinel x Pearl fanfiction is 'A New Bond'. It beautifully explores their relationship development. The author delves into how Spinel's energetic nature contrasts with Pearl's more reserved self, creating interesting interactions. Another good one is 'Shared Moments'. It shows their shared experiences in the Crystal Gems and how that brings them closer together. It has really well - written dialogue that gives depth to their characters.
Adventure is also a popular theme. Picture Spinel, who is used to her own world, suddenly in the action - packed Naruto universe. They could go on quests, fight bad guys, and discover new places together. It makes for exciting stories as they face all kinds of challenges.
Isolation is also a key theme. Spinel's hurt can lead to her isolating herself from others, and fanfictions often detail her experiences in that lonely state, and sometimes how she eventually breaks free from it.
One popular Spinel fanfiction could be 'Spinel's Redemption'. In this story, Spinel might go on a journey to find her true self after all the pain she has endured. Another could be 'Spinel in a New World' where she discovers a different part of the universe and has to adapt to new situations.
A Steven x Spinel lemon fanfiction is likely to be a work that explores a romantic or perhaps more intense relationship between Steven and Spinel in a rather spicy or detailed way. However, such fanfictions often deviate from the original canon of the story. They can be interesting in terms of exploring different character dynamics and emotions that might not be shown in the official series. But they also might not be to everyone's taste as they can sometimes push the boundaries of what is considered appropriate in the context of the original work.
Character consistency is key. Spinel has a very distinct personality, so the fanfiction should keep that intact even in a crossover. For example, her playfulness and her past traumas should be reflected properly.
