but it doesnt mean they should be. in fact i dont think theyre defeatable by mere power. these diamonds can just one-kill anybody. i'd be upset if they nerf the diamonds just so they can be killed

ultimately, even with the very rushed ending (which im still a bit salty about, we should have had 3 more seasons), steven's choice was right. the point was to STOP the war, that's why people rebel; to fight for what's right; end the pain. irl of course it's nuanced and killing is justified. because dictators dont change irl and death is not reversible. but shattering is. and everyone got liberated; no more intergalactic war. spinel one was just a random fling , it was personal because shes too stupid to move /j

BUT it doesnt mean the way the movie & future potray the diamonds are right. because even if theyre fixing their mistakes now their potrayal made it seem like theyve done NOTHING wrong. and if to say any rebel wanted to attempt to shatter the diamonds, steven & tcg should understand and not make her out as evil (bismuth... :|) . violent rebellion shouldnt be stigmatized. in history it's the

diamonds dont DESERVE redemption or forgiveness , steven made it clear he hates them, i know, but beyond him we have never seen survivors other than the crystal gems talk about their time under the diamonds. how it affect them. so this is a flaw with the show always being told from stevens perspective.

i see too many people argue the show is about forgiveness & redemption. i wholeheartedly do not believe this should apply to the diamonds. instead, steven couldve made it clear his decision is "because i cant defeat them, ill make them join my side" . because otherwise we got more people questioning why steven is a nazi sympathizer instead of understanding the powerscaling issue and aftermath of leadership vacuum, thats when the leaders (who have ruled for 20k years) are suddenly gone so the whole country is thrown into chaos. new evil rises, military junta, theyre not out of the question. especially considering gem culture that devotes their entire lives to the diamonds.

sorry bad english

Is she a pearl that obeys orders or just a collector of humans for the zoo?

Here's mine: Pink Diamond/Rose Quartz, Amethyst, Peridot, Pearl, Blue Diamond

share yours below <3

Bismuth was telling Rose that she wanted to kill her in the most brutal way possible. She must’ve been scared shitless

If not I’m surprised that Rebecca didn’t make one

I’m aware they’re rocks but there all female presenting

Rose stopped at Connie's house. Steven stepped out of the car and knocked on the door. Steven has been to her house a couple of times. The hybrid knocks on the door, and then Connie opens it.

"Hey, Steven!" she said.

"Hey, Connie!"

"Hi, Mrs. Universe, how are you." the girl asked his mother. Rose smiles.

"You don't need to call me that, just 'Rose' is fine, Connie," she said, she nodded, and Rose kissed his son's fuzzy head.

"Bye, Steven. I'll pick you up at…. How does eight sound?" Steven smiled and gave her a thumbs-up. Rose then turned and headed to her car. Steven and Connie walk into the house. Connie closed the door and walked to the couch Steven sat on it, and Connie sat on it too. Steven sees a Guitar Hero controller sitting by it.

Steven sees her Nintendo Wii sitting by the TV cabinet. The boy looks at Connie. "Hey, wanna play Guitar Hero?" Steven asked.

Connie nods.

Steven got another perfect score. Connie got a fifty percent. Steven removed the strap and set the guitar up on the wall. He went to the kitchen and went to the fridge.

"Sweet! you have quesedillas."

"Waitr, Steven. Their chicken, I have chese ones in the other freezer." Connie said Steven nods

"And where are they?"

"In the garage, I'll get one," Connie said walking to the garage. She came back and handed him the frozen food.

"Thanks, Connie," he said, walking to the cupboard and grabbing a plate, He opened it and put it on the plate and into the microwave for two minutes. When he got it out, Steven grabbed a fork and knife and started eating it.

Steven went home that night, Steven and his parents were going to a restaurant in LA with Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl. they all sat in the back of Rose's car, Ameythest and Steven sat in the very back row since they were the smallest.

Garnet and Pearl sat in the middle while Greg and Rose sat up front.

Steven brought his Nintendo DS, Ameytheset was playing Mario on it, and Steven was on his phone as rock music was playing on the radio. Rose was taking the wheel as she drove them to their destination. Steven was looking out the window of the buildings, lights, and people walking the streets.

They all step out of the car and they go inside. Steven saw a boy standing next to him, Steven could tell that he was nervous about something. "Do you need something?" he asked the boy, Steven saw that he was taller than the hybrid, he looked about thirteen years old.

Is this how tall someone is? Steven thinks to himself.

The boy nodded and started talking. "Can I have your autograph?" he asks. Steven smiled as he handed him the piece of paper. Steven signed it with his pen and looks up to him. "What's your name?"

"Alex… Mr. Universe." he smiled again and wrote his name.

"Here you go. And… It's Steven. I don't go by that stuff." he said.

The boy nodded and he went back to the chairs with his parents. "You're getting quite famous," Pearl said. Steven smiles and nods. His mother smiled too. They all went to their table and sat.

"Follow me to your table." the hostess said. Steven and the others followed the hostess and sat at a table.

Steven and everyone got menus. Steven read off the menu and knew what he wanted.

"Everyone knows what they want to drink?"

"I want water, please," Steven said.

"I'll have a lemonade," Rose said. When everyone ordered, they were talking.

"So you know what episode we're doing next week?" Steven asked.

Pearl checked on her phone and went to her Emails. She got an email from their director. Pearl read the email.

"We're doing an episode called 'Together Breakfast' Steven," she said, Steven nodded and looked at Ameythest still playing Mario on his DS.

"Can I get a picture of you?" a man asked.

"You can," he said as the man knelt by him, he put his phone into selfie mode, and they both smiled as he took the picture.

"Thank you so much, Steven!" he said, then walking away. The hybrid looks at the floor of the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and thinks to himself.

I hope we get a star one day for our show.

…

Greg, Rose, and Steven all returned to the house, Steven went upstairs. Steven closed the door to his room and changed into his PJs which were a pair of long pants and a blue shirt.

He went into the bathroom to brush his teeth, and he then crawled into bed ready for a new day tomorrow.

Steven woke up, stretched, and yawned. He walked downstairs with his phone in his hand. He opens the fridge and grabs two eggs so he can make breakfast. Steven got a call from Mordecai.

"Hey, Mordecai! What's up?"

"I'm good, you wanna go to the movies, we have a day off until Next week. So…Wanna hang out?" he asked his friend.

"Yeah, me either. Let's go. Do you want to meet up in an hour or something? I can take my bike." he said.

"Sure, dude. Meet you at The Park." Mordecai told him. Steven finished cooking his egg and started eating it.

Steven finished his egg and went to his room to take a shower and change into some normal clothes. He wore a pair of long jean shorts that covered his knees, a pair of black flip-flops, and a bright red Pikachu t-shirt.

He grabs his earbuds and his phone. He walked downstairs and opened the door to the garage to grab his bike. He opened the garage door, closed it then rode off. Steven wasn't worried about his parents, they didn't mind it, as long as he was safe.

I'm sorry but malachite, smoky quartz and gummy worm are so ugly

Please ignore how inconsistent my art style is ;-;

I come back to this show every few years and I'll forever appreciate what it stood and the message it had for self love. Going back to when the fandom was actively in discussion during its airing, did anyone have outlandish theories as to how they would wrap up the show? When I remember my ideas, it really doesn't stand much for the lessons the show was teaching lmao. Gathering gem friends as the series went on I really did believe the show would end with an all night physical battle with homeworld vs a new bunch of rebels, united by steven himself. Looking back on my theoried scenario I guess it doesn't really have anything to do with just having a discussion or reasoning with a villain like Steven so often would . However if I could defend my crack pot scenario. I do think it wouldn't made a great parralel to Steven being in exactly the situation his mum in and realising his friends he made were now sacrificing their gem for steven lol. Anyways I'd love to hear what other people imagined the shows finale

I really liked this music video about a certain au or whatever. I was wondering if y'all knew what this came from or if it was made by the person who made the video https://youtu.be/K0ybal5Af9w?si=U7ouWK7S4jYvl7IV

Made this many years ago, Sheesh it's over five years old 💀 was an early an attempt with some cheap alchol markers. I still have the original physical print of this considering I didn't get to sell it. Flawed but still a favorite after all these years.

Looking for the SU fanfic recommendations primarily surrounding a group of new gems that Aren't the Crystal Gems. For example: A new rebel group? A group of gems on homeworld? Etc, etc. Not the off-colors either or any other group. The fanfiction can still exist in the same universe, I just want new characters. ALSO it has to be before era 3

I was planning on buying Unleash the Light today because I loved Save the Light and how charming it was, but, as I searched for Steven Universe the only things that came up were the movie to buy and the Minecraft expansion and I decided to use my copy on save the light (digital) to see it in the Microsoft Store and it said currently unavailable for shopping, so what happened and why have they been removed from Digital stores?

I was looking at steven universe clips on YouTube when I found this in the baseball episode I wonder what everyone thinks of this as this episode was the first time the rubies appear and eyeball from this point on doesn't really show much emotion other than anger.

I'm assuming it could be a Peridot just because of the shape of the gem in her nose but I'm still skeptical.

In your opinion(s), what two gems would have potentially been a good ‘relationship’ fusion, that (technically) have not been introduced in the show?? Which do y’all think?

so why do some fusions have multiple arms while others only have two?

Garnet has two arms, and so does Stevonnie

Opal has four, Smokey Quartz has three, Alexandrite has six, and Obsidian has 8

is it a design thing or does it have something to do with their size/rarity/type?

My son and I are searching for some Black Diamond fanfic. We googled, but didn’t find the stuff that came up to be that engaging. Looking for any recs!

I see on their Instagram that they use they/she pronauns but gender expression doesn't need to be tied to gender identity so did they aver publicly seid about their gender identity?

EDIT: I'm stupid I could just watch the Wikipedia page 😂

From the Wikipedia page:

"Sugar is bisexual, non-binary, and genderqueer"

"In August 2020, she said she "didn't identify as a woman" but had felt pressure to conceal that fact due to being known as the first woman to create a Cartoon Network series."

We've only ever seen two human-Steven fusions, Mr. Universe and Stevonnie. He used his powers on both - he 'healed' Connie's vision and fixed up Greg's broken leg (and later, his poisoned arm.) Because of this, I don't think Steven can fuse with humans that he hasn't already used his healing powers on, that this changes them in some way to be able to fuse. Any thoughts?

(the only identity variability we've seen by now is the amethysts in the Zoo having the code like digit+letter names)
