History Headscratchers / StevenUniverseFuture

*** It's more complicated than that. Everytime he shapeshifted, whether intentionally or not, he was at least aware of what's happening to him, like that time he turned into a blob of cats head and asked Greg for help. This time, after he turned into a Godzilla-like monster, he reacted like a Corrupted Gems would act, like, you know, attacking everyone he saw as a threath, and being scared and confused.

** Onion is just....Onion

* So... why was Onion allowed on the roller coaster in "Guidance?" I find it hard to believe that he actually met the height requirement as established in "Too Short to Ride."
** I think Mr. Smiley is too afraid of Onion to not allow him to do whatever he wants, considering Onion has been known to run around his amusement park with fire.

* The fact that Connie doesn't yell "WTF are you thinking?!" when Steven asks her to marry him means they're already a couple. Is there a reason they never act like it? The most physical affection we see them show each other is hugs and ''one'' kiss on the cheek. I would chalk this up to a NoHuggingNoKissing policy because of demographics and standards BlahBlahBlah, except that isn't the case with this franchise at all. The show has no qualms about showing other couples like Greg and Rose, Pearl and Rose, or Ruby and Sapphire being passionately physically into each other, so why not Steven and his girlfriend?

*** Connie isn't a college student, she's only studying for it (as the first episode explained). Moreover, she is ''at most 15'', more likely ''14'': Canonically, she is two (well, one and a quarter) years younger than Steven, who is himself canonically 16 by ''SU:Future''. This is the real reason we haven't seen any real affection between the two until the end: she (and he, for that matter) are '''underage'''. I have a feeling it's also why she turned down his marriage proposal: getting married at 14 is ''definitely'' moving too fast, and not exactly legal either. That said, it also fits Connie's character. She's shy and reserved; that kiss on the cheek in The Movie was a big milestone for her. And with Connie stuck in cram school, the rest of your point still stands.

* I got the impression from "Gem Harvest" that Greg left his family and never looked back. "Mr. Universe" gives me the impression he truly ''hated'' his parents and wanted nothing to do with them, the way he insists Steven is better off without them in his life. So why did he write to them so many times? I'm sure there are many psychological reasons for saving letters you never opened - why would his parents likely have saved his letters without reading them?

** That would make sense, if not for Lars and Sadie -- a teenaged couple (Lars at least is still in high school and both still live with their parents) whom we're allowed to know are obviously sleeping together, and then there's that scene in "Island Adventure"... Those two were never even "together" but were sometimes implied and sometimes shown being passionately, physically into each other, but not the OfficialCouple when they're older teenagers.

** You have to factor in the adjustment period. Gems in general don't know how to be independent and pursue their own wants and this is a Pearl on top of that, she's not used to even thinking of herself as a person let alone one whose wants are valid. Plus there's the time gap to get her caught up on, she's spent 8000 years under White's control and missed the end of era one, the entire Crystal Gem Rebellion, Pink's shattering, and the entire rest of Era Two. That it only took two years to get this far is amazing.

* Was "Volleyball" the first time Volley had ever tried to get her eye healed? Where was she for two years, and why did she wait so long? Did she simply not know that Steven had healing powers? She obviously has talked to him at least once, and it's likely that someone told her everything she had missed out on. Did she not know if he could heal it?

** Since he wasn't visible on the roller coaster when Smokey rescued everyone, it's likely that he just ''swam out in the ocean and sat on the floating roller coaster''. It wouldn't be the weirdest thing he's done.

** I think Mr. Smiley is too afraid of Onion to not allow him to do whatever he wants, considering Onion has been known to run around his amusement park with fire.
