The last couple of episodes have been pretty Pearl heavy, and I've been thinking about some of the things we've seen:

1) So Pearl says that she wasn't meant to be a fighter, but if not, then what was she before and why is her gem weapon a spear? Was it ever anything else? How do Gems change that part about themselves?

2) Gem shards. It seems like Gems don't have the ability to actually die... Even when they're shattered to pieces, they still come back, but just as a random assortment of screaming limbs. And they're stuck like forever. I think humans got the better end of the stick in regards to that.

3) Rose's decision to give Steven a chance to live. This is pure speculation, but maybe Steven was Rose's way of being able to fuse with Greg since she was never able to.

Thanks for making this place, btw! The problem with Tumblr is that it's pretty hard to have a conversation with others because I don't know all the tags to look through.

1) The first thing that comes to mind is how Jasper called her "a defective pearl." I remember reading elsewhere a theory that Peridot might be the "perfected" form of pearl, since they both serve similar functions such as their hologram ability for storing data. Peridot also isn't shown to be much of a fighter, either, so I'm wondering if Pearl was also meant to be a sort of database keeper?

2) Yeah, ick, for all the cool abilities you could gain, the setbacks to being a gem seem even more horrifying in proportion. Then again, from a gem's perspective, I'm sure they feel the same way about humans. (A fleshy, easily destructible substance that can't repair itself and even shut down entirely? How can they live at all!)

3) I never thought of it that way! That seems very possible.

Ignoring the question of whether Peridot is a new type of Gem that existed in Pearl's time or not because that's a whole another can of beans (a can of beans that I would like answered, Rebecca Sugar!), Peridot is kinda OP. She has floaty non-connected fingers, can make a PDA, and gravity doesn't really apply to her. Meanwhile, Pearl is great at holo-powerpoint slides?
