Steven Universe: On Peridot,

I'm not sure if this has been answered/speculated in previous SU generals, but now that Peridot is a Crystal Gem I've been wondering-

The other CG's have gem constructs, like Garnet's gauntlets. Peridot originally had artificial limbs that acted similarly (that have been long since destroyed) so is she not capable of making her own constructs, or is it possible she just doesn't know how like Steven in the first season?
>>
>>79076552
It really depends. Jasper was able to create her helmet, so we at least know that Homeworld knows how to make constructs.
>>
She probably needs to learn how. The rubies didn't all have the iron fist like ours did in the Homeworld flashback.
>>
Yes

/thread

Now please stop with the Peridot threads

Least interesting thing about the show is Amethyst if ya' ask me.
I appreciate her character but 'repressed-child' Ame' tantrum episodes are the most grueling, and are only paralleled by the frequent 'Pearl has a Rose Quartz PTSD breakdown' episodes we were seeing awhile back.
>>
Given Peridot's proportions, her limbs just just inside the limb enhancers. Which means she has to shapeshift her self into an amputee when wearing them.

>>
>>79076552

Peridot is not a combat-task gem.
Her limb enhancers were tools for an engineer, to be upgraded and changed independently of her body.

Look at garnet. Her own weapon is a larger version of a Ruby's fists. So Sapphire doesn't seem to have a personal weapon either.
And Lapis doesn't have one either.

Not all gems have weapons. In fact they manufacture weapons that are independent of their bodies. Like the battle axe or Rose's sword.

Also, Peridot is curvier than that. Shortstacked.
>>
>>79076552
Only soldiers can create weaponconstructs (Jasper, Rose, RWBY). Pearl stores her weapon in her head with other misc shit like police tape.
>>
>>79077922
>Her own weapon is a larger version of a Ruby's fists.

Actually Ruby's weapon is an armored glove while Garnet's is Gauntlets. Its likely Sapphire has a component that makes them gauntlets

>>
>>79078089
Are you sure about that? Pearl seems to be able to create any quantity of her spears as needed, and they look a hell of a lot more like they're distinctly a part of her than other stuff we've seen her fight with.

I'm confident that her gem weapon is either a drill or green glowy limb enhancers

>>79078631
I don't think it's so much storage, it might be just like the gem projects the construct of their body they need to 'produce' the construct of their weapon independent to their own shape-shifting ability. There's also an argument to be had about their weapon being preset as supposed to chosen as Pearl uses a spear but has the biggest boner for swords so that might mean even gems not built for combat always have their own weapon to call upon
>>
Oh look, another SU thread with the exact samr topic.
>>
>>79076552
That "without armor" pic is completely off model, her limbs are much shorter than that.

In fact, so much so that her arms must bend in a completely different place when she's in the limb enhancers.
>>
>>79079381
That's actually a pic made before the reveal.
>>
>>79079381
It was made during the time when it was still a theory that her limb enhancers were armor.
>>
>>79079095
her gem weapon will be either a toothbrush or a wet towel.
>>
>>79076552

Peridot was not originally made for combat, much like Pearl.

So she'll have to develop her own weapon(s).
>>

>>
>>79076941
Jasper was also a veteran of the Earth rebellion, which may have factored into her ability to manifest her own weapon (such as it is). It's also probably the reason she was sent as P-dot's escort.

Come to think of it, we haven't seen any other HW gems actually summon their own weapon, but then, we haven't seen very HW gems so far.
>>
>>79077782
thanks for the gif

Nothing so far has indicated that Peridot knows how to use her gem the way others do. It could even be that the idea has been suppressed and supplanted by Gem-Tek as a way to keep Gems in line by the Diamonds.

Theres nothing wrong with multiple SU threads, its just that people keep making threads about Peridot only
>>
>>79076552
I believe that creating weapons is something that some Gems can do naturally and other Gems can learn to do.

In the first episode, when Steven was asking how the other Crystal Gems summoned their weapons, Amethyst said it just came naturally to her, while Garnet and Pearl gave complicated and cryptic explanations which involved deep focus the forces of the universe. Steven himself can also summon his shield without thinking, based on his emotional state.

Now, this is fitting to their personalities, but it's also notable that both Amethyst and Steven are Quartz-type Gems, who are a special elite warrior caste. It makes sense that they would naturally be able to create weapons much like all Gems can instinctively create bodies and clothing.

By contrast, Pearl was designed as a decorative slave who learned to be an effective warrior through sheer determination; it's plausible that she originally couldn't summon a weapon – and, in Garnet's origin flashback, she instead used physical swords – but could learn to create her spear as a variant of the standard Gem ability to create hard-light constructs.

As for Garnet, her situation is not entirely clear. Ruby is a warrior-class gem, so it would make sense for her to have a natural weapon, but she gave a confusing forces-of-the-universe explanation that's more like Pearl's than Amethyst's; it could be that Rubies can't do that normally because they're cheap cannon fodder, or it could be something else. In any case, it's also notable that Garnet's weapon is a variant of Ruby's, unlike the other fusion gems who summon their components' weapons before combining them into something unique; it's possible that Sapphire (a seer, not a warrior) has no weapon of her own, since she spends all her time as Garnet and wouldn't need to learn.

She can already build robots, so she should be good. Now that she's a Crystal Gem, she should have more access to material.

She could probably recover the robonoids and get them working again.

But that's not really the same as her developing a gem weapon, which I think she'll do at some point.
>>
>>79079941
What the fuck....
>>
>>79076552
>>79079905
(cont.)

The Homeworld Gems that we've seen also fit in with this. Jasper, another Quartz warrior-caste Gem, can summon a helmet easily. Peridot, a low-ranking technician, relies entirely on machines and gadgets to fight and has no powers without her limb enhancers. Lapis Lazuli is hard to classify, since we don't know what her purpose is; we do know, however, that she can control water on a planetary scale, and she seems to summon her water wings without using the surrounding water, so that might be a "backup" ability for when there's no water around.

In conclusion, the evidence seems to support that weapon summoning is a learnable skill for Gems, as a variant of their natural ability to create solid-seeming hard light constructs. Gems built for fighting are able to do so naturally, because it's a part of their assigned role, while other Gems cannot. The Crystal Gems, however, have a strong ideological focus on breaking out of Homeworld's strict class system, so they would likely help each other learn how to summon their own weapons, which would greatly increase their effective combat power and go a long way towards explaining how they were able to defeat what is likely a numerically superior foe.
>>
>>79079826
I guess I could buy that, even if everyone else's weapons seem to be independent of the powers they also wield. But again, she was stranded on Earth for who knows how long. Was she also fighting for HW in the rebellion? She tells Steven the Crystal Gems can't be trusted, and she was the only one who knew of them besides Jasper.

It would be interesting if Lapis and/or Jasper could actually get a chance to give HW's version of the story, just to see how such an apparently rigid society tried to adapt to fighting radicals.

>>
>>79080136
Seems legit enough. The Homeworld gems were after all terrified of Pearl, not Rose in the R&S flashback. Whether this was because she's a Pearl that can fight (and cuts through quartz like it's her job) or because she was manifesting a weapon at that point as well is up to debate.
>>
>>79080114
Even counting the ones deleted, thats still like 5-6 threads. Half of 150 is 5?
>>
>>79079772
If they are able to collect and seemingly use dissipated heat and transform it into energy, I don't see why they couldn't make a weapon out of their gemstone since they are able to have hard light bodies, or something of the sort. They would use the same mechanism to make a weapon, like their bodies. Why not?
>>
>>79080136
I like to think Lapis uses the steam on the air for her wings.
>>
>>79080304
Pearl wasn't summoning weapons in the flashback though, interestingly enough, during the Answer no gem is seen using the Gem Weapon at all, the only one even using weapons is Pearl and those were just swords that she carries around, not the spear that she later can summon

>If only there was some kind of thread for the show in general. A 'general thread'

>>
>>79076552
She's a fusion virgin.

She may very well be a youngin who hasn't even materialized her first weapon.
>>
>>79080304
Pearl didn't actually summon her spear in that flashback, though. She used physical swords, similar to the ones she keeps in her room in modern times. It might have been before she learned to make a weapon.

Then again, none of the other Gems summoned their weapons either, even warrior-types like Ruby and Rose Quartz. Maybe it's just because it was a rather abstract scene.

Or, and this is just occurring to me now, Rose didn't summon her shield because she didn't think she'd need it? She seems to be a rather smug and self-assured person in general; it's possible she only brings out her shield for "important" or "major" threats (or to defend her allies, of course), and she thought she could easily beat a three-Ruby fusion with her bare hands (which she could, evidently).
>>
I wonder if cross-gem fusion is considered acceptable in Homeworld now. Just as long as it's for practical purposes.

laziness by the artists seems rather unlikely in a show that is often so diliberate about foreshadowing thing that will happen later.

Seems more likely to me that Gems didn't know how to summon weapons yet and that is why no one summons them. Its probably something that they discover during the course of the war, on both sides.

Ruby has a weapon, the cestus (or whatever it was) ...but Garnet is not Ruby. Half of her is Sapphire, to whom Future Vision probably counts as a weapon (like Lapis controlling water).

So Garnet would actually have to focus and train herself to use the weapon that comes naturally to Ruby (and would be upgraded due to her status as a fusion).

Probably something like that. Maybe PD was a bro and sacrificed herself or something but that's doesn't really matter for now

I do wonder why they specifically don't show PD mural in the moon base? Do they just want the design to be more surprising? Or do they just keep mystery for mystery sake?
>>
>>79079826
>>79082256
I don't think that's an accurate statement. Gem weapons, in this context, refers to the solid light constructs that some Gems can materialize from their gemstones, similar to how they create their clothes and bodies. You can't really say, for example, that Sapphire's weapon is future vision; it's something she uses in battle, yes, but she doesn't materialize solid future vision using light from her gemstone. Same with Lapis Lazuli and her water control powers, or Peridot's limb enhancers; they're "weapons" used by Gems, but they're not "Gem weapons".

I think this is what some call the Four Terms Fallacy: using a word to mean one thing in one context and a very different thing in another context, then treating the two meanings as equivalent even when they're not.

I always kinda assumed her weapon was her wings, she didn't take water and form them, they came out of her gem

I'm betting it's this. It's the easiest way to avoid writing yourself into a corner, just leave a loose end here and there so later you can splice them together.
They could always have PD show up as Steven's grandmother or something. One day she just wanders out of Rose's room or some shit.

Except that the Crewniverse has explicitly stated that Lapis Lazuli's weapon is her water control.

The problem is on your end; you assume that a Gem's weapon has to be something materialized using light from her gem, when in fact it doesn't.

Even so, Lapis still materializes water wings out of her gemstone.

>>79083813
That's a bit too femenine, not even Stevonnie looks that femenine.

Actually this makes me think, Stevonnie looks more like a girl because Steven is still barely a teenager and looks more like a girl but how will Stevonnie look when Steven gets older, a beard and much more manly?

The problem is that they're using the term "weapon" to mean something entirely different, leaving the question of "What is Lapis Lazuli's Gem weapon?" unaddressed. Her water control isn't her weapon because it's something completely different from a Gem weapon.

No. You are wrong.

Ian literally said that Lapis Lazuli's weapon is water control. That is her weapon. It is directly addressed.

It is the exact same thing as every other Gem weapon: using her energy to manipulate something into a functional form. Except instead of manipulating light to form a spear, she's manipulating water for form giant hands and shit.

>>79084338
>No. You are wrong.
It's entirely true that water control is not the same thing as creating matter from light. Equating the two is wrong, not pointing out the differences.

>It is the exact same thing as every other Gem weapon: using her energy to manipulate something into a functional form. Except instead of manipulating light to form a spear, she's manipulating water for form giant hands and shit.
It's exactly like the other Gems' ability to project matter from their gems, except that instead of projecting matter from her gem, she's making water move on its own.

That's a fairly significant difference. Her ability to control water is separate from, and irrelevant to, the question of what sort of weapon she can create from her gem.

Peridot wasn't there to raise him, she doesn't have any emotional connection to Rose, emotionally she is as immature as he is, they are close to the same height, they get along really well, she is capable of matching his extended lifespan, etc.

Second to Connie she is the closest to a kid his own age that Steven actually hangs out with.

>>79085065
her limb enhancers are artificial
the gems' weapons aren't "materialized" but rather summoned from their gem, made of their same light
that's why when Peri got poofed her limb enhancers didn't
>>
>>79076941
There are two things I'm guessing at;
Summoning a weapon has more to do with the caste system perhaps. Everyone could do it, but rules say no. Jasper's a warrior, she's allowed to pull a helmet out of her face. Peridot's not a warrior, therefore she was either not allowed to try, or aware she even could try.

Otherwise I'm guessing gem construct weapons might've been something that came about from the war. Pearl and Rose both used non construct weapons in their attack on the Sky Arena. And this sort of supports the idea >>79079676 said about Jasper.
And even then, that might've become factored into the caste system after the fact.

Guys, so when the main plot is resolved and the series comes to an end, do you think it's possible, if the demand is still will be there, for them to do a classic anime move and do a time jump to more grown up Steven, with new main plot?

it doesn't work like that, gems can't get bigger, they are the size that they are. If they try and maintain a larger form they will over stress there gem and the form will collapse. This has been shown twice, in Reformed with Amethyst and in Steven's Birthday with Steven

did Amethyst ever summon her whip while her gem was cracked?

Because Lapis couldn't form her wings while her gem was cracked.

>Relief is a sculptural technique where the sculpted elements remain attached to a solid background of the same material. The term relief is from the Latin verb relevo, "to raise." To create a sculpture in relief is to give the impression that the sculpted material has been raised above the background plane.

I don't think she did? It makes sense, since the weapon literally comes out of the gemstone, so that'd be hard to do when the gem is cracked.

>>79083179
You're assuming that the different Diamonds don't collaborate and that their provinces never overlap in any way. Yes, BD got pissed off when Ruby fused with "a member of her court", but we were also told Sapphire was Gem nobility. A royal court typically doesn't include rank and file soldiers even thought they also serve their king/queen/tsar/whatever. So it's sort of like a chamber guard fucking a duchess right in your throne room, the act of which also happens to fuck your war campaign all to hell.

He could summon two shields - we've seen Gems create multiple weapons all the time. He just doesn't do it because for him, making a weapon is hard - he was visibly tired after making three shields in one day.

Lapis or Amethyst. She and Pearl get along the best, but a fusion between them would have way too much sexual tension, just due to their personalities and how they act towards each other, and I don't think the writers are going for a Pearidot ship.

Amethyst would be the only Crystal Gem that Peri could fuse with without it being particularly awkward.

With Lapis, I could see a situation where they're both in trouble and the best solution is to fuse. Lapis already knows how, and Peridot mostly understands it, even if she hasn't done it yet.

>>79087461
Not as a shipping thing, but yeah, I think it's likely that they'll fuse. They've still eventually gotta deal with Malachite, and when they do, it would not surprise me at all if Lapis and Peridot, as Jasper's former underlings, wound up in a situation of peril together.

>>79087516
Hey, that's not
I guess it is kind of exactly like that.

>Peridot is uncomfortable with it
>Lapis hates it after Malachite
>Steven is in danger or w/e, forcing them to fuse
>Peridot gains an understanding she never imagined
>Lapis knows what it's like to be fused peacefully

Plus, it would be a huge trust thing. I mean, look what Lapis was able to do to Jasper; Peridot doesn't have that kind of will. She's basically giving herself to Lapis and trusting her with her entire being.
>>
>>79079095
>Peridot's gem weapon turns out to be her old limb attachments
>>
>>79086026
I feel like it'll be Garnet in a tutorial capacity, but that Amethyst will be the first stable fusion and first to actually see any action. Darkhorse bet here is that we symultaneously get peri's first and confirmation that Steven can fuse with gems at the same time.
>>
I just saw episode 27-28, and Peridots monologue in the moon base control room, about how Rose Quarts didn't save earth and just doomed it further, was almost word for word an Issue I brought up 2 months ago, and yellow diamonds desire to destroy earth.

It basically confirms that Rose making Steven was the stupidest possible move on her part.
Earth wasn't safe as Homeworld was still a threat, because 6000 years is a weekend to gems.

AND it confirmed my operating sequence of events, which another anon was arguing against with poor rationalizations

Basically the issues are thus:
If only 4 crystal gems remained, why did home-world not just overpower them with focused shock troops?
They claimed that Home-world didn't think that the crystal gems existed anymore, or where no threat in military combat, especially after being that cut off for that long from home-world development of tech, AND that the cluster birth was more desirable than the re-ignitions of the kinder-gardens

If Gems have long life, bordering on technical immortality, why god why are they expansionist and willing to demolish entire life sustaining worlds, making them sterile even for the gems own reproduction purposes, and in the process making enemies of every other race in the local universe?

Sentient Immortal Holograms, who don't have to eat HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO NATURAL EXTERNAL MOTIVATING FACTOR for this behavior
And as Sugar has said "there are no villains" in SU, this is the biggest Issue the central driving factor has
>>
>>79087551
That does sound pretty good, but now that you mention it, Lapis being afraid to fuse again after the nightmare of being Malachite makes a lot of sense, which means we'd probably have a shit ton of episodes between her revealing her phobia and her getting over it. And at SU's glacier pace, I'm expecting to see the next Lapis fusion in 2021.

My good friend, you are blessed with the gift of patience, if you have waited for so long before seeing your marvelous analysis confirmed. Why not further your efforts, and wait until all, and not only a part, of your clever assumptions, are proven true, before passing such a severe judgement on the whole logic of the series?
Certainly it would be much more satisfying for you, and more of a pleasure for us, if you could show us once again an example of your strong phlegm and restraint, by waiting until all factors and plans are clearly revealed before sharing your views.
>>
>>79087592
Honestly my assumption is that either they already have a really big enemy and they need all the gems they can make to fight it, or they're driven by a pre-programmed directive that the Diamonds haven't really had sufficient reason to ignore since, aside from the Earth (which was a minor hiccup) doing what they've been doing has been working out pretty well for them.

As for Rose, some may say that she made Steven as part of a keikaku to change Homeworld and save Earth, but I don't really believe it. For starters, why make Steven now and not earlier? And secondly Homeworld isn't really invading for the most part, they just need to wait for the clock to run out, Yellow Diamond pretty much won six thousand years ago. Honestly I suspect that Rose making Steven was due to both a longstanding desire on Rose's part to not be anymore, and Greg being exactly the right kind of person.

While admittedly her assault on the sky arena while only bringing Pearl with her (or alternatively, starting a rebellion against an intergalactic empire with literally only one person on your side, and 'person' could be considered arguable on a societal level) IS pretty dumb, the way she treated Garnet when they met the second time showed passable skill at manipulation.

if you had any reading comprehension at all you would see the argument puts ANY attempted explanation into contradiction with itself, or doesn't explain any of the issues

I don't have to wait for an explanation that won't fix anything

Also I know your being an ass, because if i waited till after it was explained and the series concluded you wouldn't think I had come to that conclusion before, and would ignore Plot holes that would NEVER be resolved

For example

My best friend made me read Watchmen long before it was ever going to be a movie
I told him flatly that the ending with the giant monster was stupid, and It would make more sense with Ozy using the Duplicated powers of Dr. Manhattan to cause the distaster, and for the world to blame Dr. Manhattan

When it was announced to be a movie I told him this again, and he still didn't believe me

The Diamond logo is three triangles instead of four diamonds, one of the statues is broken, and on a few older emblems, we can see the Pink part of the emblem is defaced. We don't know the circumstances, but all that together points to Pink being persona non grata.

It was speculated for a while that Rose was pink Diamond and diamond was a title more than an actual gem

It was also used to explain how she had so much gem support on earth

Why would spanking brand new young gems serve and die for a home-world traitor Quarts? going against their programmed nature?
>>
>>79088032
Wait are you questioning why the gems render worlds uninhabitable in general or what's the deal with the Cluster specifically?

Because the Cluster seems to pretty clearly just be Yellow Diamond's vanity project, and as for the ever-expanding empire, I do think it might be as simple as they don't have a compelling reason to stop. Like any sapient life they've encountered they don't really have any incentive to make peace with, and any opposition they've encountered has been minimal.

But yeah Rose wasn't the saint the Crystal Gems thought she was, and honestly I would be dissapointed if Steven was part of her master plan.
>>
>>79088106
Is there any opposing evidence to that theory? Sounds like a great explanation to me.
>>
>>79088082

It's incredibly likely that Marty isn't entirely the piece of shit Greg made him out to be. He was probably an asshole, but there was likely more of a human side to him than Greg remembers years later. It's entirely possible he tried to be some part of Sour Cream's life, at least at first.

He'll probably show up again at some point, and be redeemed at least a little bit, if only in a "You had the right idea, Greg" sort of way. SU is clearly not a show that considers anyone to be totally irredeemable.

Not really, at all. She treated him like a pet or a toy then when she realised she could succesfully experiment with him the so many failed experiments she did with the rest of Earth's organic life, she emulated what humans do when they are in love.
>>
>>79088106
>so much gem support on Earth
Oh yes. One whole Pearl.

It seems pretty obvious that Rose recruited gems the old-fashioned way by appealing to societal rejects and outcasts, and leveraged that into a big fighting force through the power of Fusion as well as unconventional tactics.

But all that did was kind of stall Homeworld until they kicked her teeth in and left her to bleed out while they planned to fuck the Earth with their science.

Pretty good for just a treacherous combat medic, utterly pathetic for one of the four gem-matriarchs.

>>79087943
>>79087988
Oh, I can't believe I forgot all of those. I see now.

>>79088106
Rose is probably not Pink Diamond. It just doesn't make any sense. She's probably just a high-ranking rebellious Pink Diamond official, and considering her intense charisma it just makes sense she'd be able to convince the fringe groups of the Gems. I'd rather bet my money that she killed Pink Diamond herself, which caused the Diamonds to retreat.

I don't think she understood what humans do when they're in love. Otherwise she'd be able to do a much better job of it after their dance. Like even from a tactical perspective, Rose had nothing to gain by showing how different she is from humans mentally.

Pearl, Garnet, and Amethyst are the surviving members of the rebellion because a magic nuke went off and rekt everything not in Rose's immediate defense bubble. There are references to her having a huge army on her side throughout the show.

Why she went in with just Pearl in The Answer I have no idea, but the remaining CGs are part of what was once a much larger faction.
>>
>>79088138
Quite a lot, as of late. Primarily, we've seen the Diamonds, and they're far bigger than Rose. Not to mention they both had diamond-shaped gems (Rose's is circular), and though we didn't see all of Pink's mural, the little we did see doesn't look like Rose. To cap it off, one of the creators suggested that Rose could simply be a powerful specimen of Quartz - she's the right size for one, and her abilities aren't that outlandish compared to some of the bullshit we've seen Gems pull off.

The Rose theories have become a lot less common since then, and most of them are getting a lot weirder - often involving forced downgrades, disguises, and being de-fused with Bismuth.

I'm starting to think that Rose took control of Pink Diamond's army and Pink Diamond was punished/destroyed for failing to keep her subordinate in check.

Alternatively, Pink Diamond was actually pro-Gem freedom and helped Rose with her rebellion. Either way, I think it's likely that Pink Diamond was quietly disposed of and no one was told what happened to her or why, since the rest of the Diamonds have to keep up the pretense that Diamonds are infallible.

I agree that at this point the cluster is YD's vanity project

I do wonder if maybe the diamonds are some kind of fusion. The correlation of size and fusions, but also possibly just strength, has been consistent. The only thing they're missing are the extra limbs and eyes. I wonder if Rose may have been a compontent to Pink Diamond.

>>79088138
The issue it faces now is that we've seen the diamonds and Rose can't compare in size. The consistent ominous omission of any depictions of Pink diamond make it entirely likely that she'd be recognizable, suggesting she's Rose, but it's not clear what missing piece fills the gap now that we know Rose was not diamond size or strength.

What also confuses me is that Peridot didn't make any note at all of there being a Pink Diamond on the moon base, despite glimpses of her engraving and reason to believe that Peridot would either recognize Pink Diamond being the fangirly subordinate she is, or be off put by the presence of a diamond she wasn't familiar with being the fangirly subordinate she is.

Blue and Yellow Diamond share a lot of visual similarities to each other in shape, size, and gem-cut and Rose has none of those similarities, and no gem has been shown to change how their own gem is shaped (even Amethyst just usually has a discolored spot where the gem should be while taking the form of another gem). Even if White Diamond having a forehead gem does indicate that Pink Diamond probably has a naval gem, it's still really unlikely.
>>
>>79088206
Got it, thanks anon.
>>
>>79088138
Rose Quartz actually being Pink Diamond was a plausible theory for a while, but after Peridot joined the main cast we've gotten some more insight into Gem society, and it doesn't add up.

For one, she specifically recognized Steven's gem as a Quartz-type gem, and they're specifically an elite soldier caste, separate from the Diamonds.

For another, it would make sense for the gigantic leader figure to be a Diamond... but we've seen Yellow Diamond in person, and she's gigantic compared to any other Gem, Rose included.
>>
>>79088196
She was practically condescending him all the time
>>
>>79088206
Also, Peridot worshiped the ground the Diamonds stood on. If Rose Quartz was a diamond, she would been bowing a scraping in front of Steven, and also would be deeply confused as to how a Diamond (whose wisdom is absolute) could go against another Diamond (whose wisdom is also absolute).
>>
>>79088138
Uh, yeah... They are literally named after the gem on their body and nothing else.

Ian confirmed this on Twitter along with Peridot going into detail herself about what a Quartz is.

There are no 'titles'.

She treated him like a pet until she realized that he's a complex being, just like her, with feelings and motivations. He was the very first human to make her realize that people are sapient and functioning, just like her. Theorists like to believe that Rose is some sort of Dr. Gero-esque super scientist who sacrificed herself to create the ultimate life form, but I think she was just a organic life fetishist.

Gems consider themselves to be the ultimate lifeform. The idea that they could run into an alien race that was somehow better then them is not a thought that would ever occur to any of them.

>>79088220
Peridot didn't mention White Diamond either. I think Blue was the first she saw, and then Yellow, and then the Crystal Gems irritation kind of cut off Peridot's fawning.

I kinda disagree with you.
His shark teeth gave him personality, but yeah it does show how biased Greg was

Yeah I know. That was one half of the point of the episode, that Rose and Greg weren't love at first sight because Rose didn't even really understand what love is.

No, what likely happened was the Diamond Authority realized they couldn't hold onto earth, because fighting Rose's Army was just that much of a fucking logistical nightmare, so they carried out the orbital bombardment equivalent of a Stalingrad retreat, shat a brick when they saw her survive and ran.

Rose was utterly fascinated by the human condition. It's why in Lion 3, Rose is filming Greg instead of the other way around. Rose is part of a species where pretty much your entire existence - your personality, your abilities, your job, your wants, your desires, your appearance - is decided for you the moment you emerge from the ground. There are divergences, but it's difficult and rare. But none of that is the case for a human. A human can be anything.

>"Isn't it remarkable, Steven? This world is full of so many possibilities. Each living thing has an entirely unique experience. The sights they see, the sounds they hear. The lives they live are so complicated... a-and so simple. I can't wait for you to join them."

>>
>>79088353
I agree with it logically, in-world, but given the narrative of the show I'm sure it'll be spun more in Rose's favor. Even if it makes less sense, I feel like they'll have it that Rose effectively beat them back by her own efforts albeit at the cost of most of her army.

>>
>>79088353
They didn't run. A: they thought they killed her and B: they already decided on the Cluster plan so they had no reason to stay on Earth.

Also I'm saying that if she was Pink Diamond, she would have started out with approximately a quarter of all gems on her side and willing to die for her, as opposed to "a small but dedicated resistance" that seems like it could have just been Pearl.

Do you not understand that insurrections can grow in size?
>>
>>79088353
What he meant to say was, it's pretty clear that Rose didn't start with the army that fought in the strawberry fields. If she was a Diamond, she'd have probably started out with a decent-sized force of traitors and personal guards and opportunists and extremely faithful Gems - instead, she started with a Pearl.

>>79088409
I happened to just rewatch it a few minutes before your post, and there really isn't anything in her conversation with him that implies that she suddenly has respect for him and is going to start treating him like an equal. She's happy he doesn't know much about her, brushes off his concerns the short time they've known each other and how he feels rushed, brushes off a question from him about her backstory and then she admits that she has no idea how human relationships work but wants to figure it out with him. There's no acknowledging him as a complex being, or apologizing for her condescending behavior, or revealing any core part of herself to him. Still reads as 100% her trying out a sexual relationship with an organic lifeform for the lulz, not any kind of genuine respect for him.

>>
>>79088106
it's spelled Quartz with a z btw

We don't know much about Pink Diamond or her forces. It's entirely possible, considering Rose's healing powers, weapon of shield, plant control etc that Pink's specialty was somehow more humane or protective or nurturing, which made them more suspectible for the gem equivalent of hippie bullshit like "organic life is valuable too and should be protected". So it's possible that Rose's save the apes and the environment misson gained more ground among Pink Diamond's troops, and the other Diamonds dethroned and destroyed PD for allowing such a situation to develop.

I agree with the other anons that Rose can't have been PD. She's not large, imposing or powerful enough (heck she's smaller than Jasper, so she's just Quartz size), and also her name is "Quartz" ffs. Also I think Jasper or Peridot might have made some mention of Rose being a former Diamond during their gloating - Jasper fought in the first war for Earth, so she was around when Pink Diamond was still part of the authority, so she'd have known if Rose would have morphed from a Diamond to a Quartz (even if that'd be possible).
>>
>>79088454
>"a small but dedicated resistance" that seems like it could have just been Pearl.
You're fixating on the fact she just brought Pearl with her, when there are a number of reasons for that besides she was just that small time. Reasons like she was there to assassinate Blue Diamond. Or that Garnet simply told a G-Rated version of the story, because she's telling it to Steven and doesn't want to make him cry.

>>
>>79088555
Because they've never made a geo-weapon like the Cluster before and want to use it as a proof-of-concept and also because Yellow Diamond is really bitter that Rose even got as far as she did and so doesn't even want the Earth to remain in the severely altered form it would have after colonization, instead she wants the whole thing gone.

They're wasting a planet on the cluster becuase Yellow Diamond demands that, and Yellow Diamond demands it because she's salty as fuck, which is why Peridot decided to rebel.

Also if the car wash wouldn't give any money he'd lose the building, unless he owns it and the land it stands on.

Also Greg was the one who took care of baby Steven, the Gems were useless at that. Steven only moved in with the gems at age what, six, seven? It's seen in the extended intro, he's definitely older than 5.

I think in "the Answer" they said it was something like 5750 years ago? That's when BD was still on diplomatic mission, trying to defuse the rebellion.

So it'd be something like 3000 years BC, which is when humans were just transitioning from the Stone age to the Bronze age.
I'm fairly sure humans were already having love affairs etc and experiencing complex feelings etc that were what interested Rose so much

You think Amethyst would care or be responsible enough to manage to consistently support Steven through theft, and so that the local humans would never notice anything throughout the years? Also you think Steven would be fine with that, with Amethyst being essentially a career criminal?

It's a shit headcanon theory. Amy pretty much just eats whatever moldy burrito she comes across, and is so young and uncultured the other gems treat her like a dog with ADHD (Amethyst, fetch the stick) when Greg first starts to hang with Rose. Trying to place the mantle of "sole responsible breadwinner" on Amy is so fucking OOC it hurts.

Yeah, it's possible he moved in at age eight or something like that, and started to stagnate with the birthdays as seen in the Steven's Birthday episodes only after he moved in with the Gems, who aren't aging and changing at all. I mean the Steven moving in looks very much like show Steven, not much younger at all.

What age was it at the album? I mean it's very possible he aged like a human as long as he was being raised by a human, but once he became a part of the gem group his body sort of took its cues off them and stopped changing, or that the gem magic surrounding him in the temple somehow influenced him

e) Lapis.
Lapis has already has one failure of a fusion and we know Steven will try and get peridot to make up to Lapis.

I think it would be satisfying to see Lapis have a "good" fusion since she has spent so long in a "bad" one, and it would be a resolution of Peridot's desire to understand fusion.

>>
>>79088603

But it hasn't. Peridot was sent to monitor its progress and based on the other fusion experiments it seemed like it was progressing on schedule.

Whatever the cluster is supposed to be, and it's strongly hinted it is an ultimate act of punishment against the rebellious gems and the world they fought for, it's doing what it was designed to do and doing so on time.

What I don't get is how the Crystal Gems didn't figure out that something was percolating under the crust for so long.

If anything reformed with amethyst proved that gems can stretch their resting bodies but theyre unstable. Amethyst was able to significantly stretch out an arm and a leg. Who knows maybe another gem could have done it.

Anyone else feel that Peridot is not going to be part of the main cast for long?

I mean, it would be great to see the main cast expanded. Perhaps even awesome to see that through the means of Steven the Crystal Gems can start growing as a force again rather than a small group trying to defend earth.

But I cannot help but feel that we are not going to have Peridot for long, that she might end up getting crushed/corrupted and have that be a new motivator for Steven to fight against Homeworld/YD.

I want to be wrong, and see not only just Peri, but other gems start to side with the Crystal Gems and expand the main cast. My doubts seem too possible though.

Peridot ships Pierre and Percy, not Percy and Paulette. So if this is supposed to be some kind of incite into Peridot's feelings, you should note that she is REJECTING the pairing pretty much anybody with Lapis. "Paulette has no place in the camp's hierarchy". If Percy really is meant to represent Peridot, she put herself with Pierre: "Pierre is a brute. Pierre laid waste to the three legged races."

What brutes have we met that enjoy laying waste to things?

What the hell are you talking about, Peridot is barely hiding her passive aggression towards Pearl.

>>79089905

But it seems like the gems can only make a certain kind of construct.

Amythest can become anything, but only ever uses a whip. Pearl is an expert sword fighter, but only ever pulls out a spear. Rose had her shield, but needed a giant forged sword.

Maybe gems on homeworld have so many tools available they never learn to produce their own while the Crystal Gems, after 5000 years of isolation, have learned something that's more of a novel skill on homeworld.

Please show even one instance of Amy stealing actual human money that could be used to buy food for Steven. Or alternatively her ever trading some of her junk for money that could be used to buy food for Steven.

Also don't try to backtrack. You implied that Greg doesn't contribute anything for Steven, and seeing as Steven is a normal boy food-wise and need several meals away, the money for that has to come from somewhere - and your response to that was Amethyst.

However, Amethyst nicking all sorts of decrepit junk every now and then does not equal her being a responsible breadwinner who'd be able to consistently, reliably provide ingredients for 3 nutritious meals a day. She doesn't care enough and certainly isn't responsible enough. It's much more likely the income comes from Greg, who actually owns a business.

The Crystal Gems are soldiers. They fight all the time. Peridot even calls Garnet "War Machine". Maybe only soldiers learn how to manifest them.

Plus, seeing how versatile Lapis' water magic and Peridot's mechanical skill is, maybe non-warrior caste gems don't even want to learn how.

Lapis fought Steven's whole team to a standstill with nothing but sea water. Even if she could manifest some kind of weapon, why would she want to? It's like a fish learning how to hold its breath underwater.

It's not unusual for a Japanese show to change to an opening so drastically different that it is very jarring. Compare this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xw02M_BvRaY

Extremely average J-Rock.

against this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7miPSZVmw0

J-death-metal that mixes in english swear words before what sounds like a rather nasty spill down the stairs? I guess?


And whether the TMNT theme is any good or not has no bearing on the conversation. You asked who'd done it, not who'd done it well.
>>
>>79090295
Your argument had nothing to do with class or warrior status you dipshit, it had to do with the crystal gems (pearl specifically) developing weapon constructs in non warrior gems in their separation from home-world after the war

Which is even stupider now that I think about it because Pearl used use her spear DURING the rebellion
>>
>>79090295

>Ignoring that Jasper only resorts to her crash helmet as a weapon when Garnet breaks her splitting rod.

Except that's wrong. She used it in the first... let's be charitable and call it a "battle"... to block Garnet's charge.

>Ignoring Peridot and Lapis who don't produce gem weapons.

Haven't != can't.

>Peridot even calls Garnet "War Machine".

Because she's a fusion and that's what Homeworld thinks fusion is for.

>>79090374

That's not lying, anon.

He didn't say "no, there won't be". He just said "oh so you've heard the rumors", without commenting at all to whether or not the rumors might be true.

That's a prime example of evading the question and giving a non-answer because they don't want to confirm that yes it'll change and also don't want to flat-out lie and say no it won't.
>>
>>79090374
>>79090380

I'm pretty sure the rebellion's war lasted a little longer than that one day.

I'd have to go back and comb for it, but I seem to recall footage of her using the spear in one of her projections in Sworn to the Sword.

Not that anything Pearl says or displays should be trusted.

>>79090453
You're changing your argument. The person you're bashing said that the Crystal Gems learned something that the Homeworld Gems didn't know. If Peridot didn't know how to summon her weapon, then of course there's a reason she didn't do it.
>>
>>79090581

>>79090616
>Can't =! Cannot ever possibly forever and ever and even after that.

you don't seem to know English

if you mean "hasn't" use "hasn't"
"Can't" means there is a block, it has nothing to do with permanence

I can't eat a cake, because i don't have a cake to eat, but i will have a cake at some point, and I want to eat it
I haven't eaten a human because I haven't, and i won't, but I certainly can

Can't (currently blocked)
Hasn't (has not occurred in past)
Won't (choice to not in future, unstable and often wrong)
>>
>>79090640
Because the anon used it to describe a block, which doesn't qualify as a block

"She can't because she is useless without tech"
"without tech" is the pseudo-block he invokes, and that's the problem, because its not actually a block
