* AmbiguousDisorder: Bruce was diagnosed with some form of anxiety/panic disorder during his stay in Little Homeworld, so it can be assumed that Oliver shares this trait.
* BrutalHonesty: Bruce's analytical mind and the Hulk's blunt attitude mean that Oliver picks up on pretty much everything and isn't afraid to call it out. Case in point, him bluntly calling Loki a crazy person right in front of Thor.
* DeadpanSnarker: Lacking Bruce's anxious nature but not his cynicism, Oliver crosses into this a lot.

* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: Though declaration isn't necessarily romantic, Jasper [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Understatement doesn't take it well]] when Steven leaves Beach City to be TheDrifter post-''SU:F'', and tears into his seeming rejection of her loyalty after he returns.
-->''[[SuddenlyShouting "I CHOSE TO TRAIN YOU! I CHOSE TO FIGHT YOU! I CHOSE TO LET YOU STAY! I CHOSE TO BOW TO YOU! I CHOSE EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY I SPENT WITH YOU!]]'' ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis I! CHOSE! YOU!"]]''
* AccidentalMisnaming: Has a habit of misnaming or over-generalizing organic creatures, such as calling flowers "dogs".
* AdmiringTheAbomination: After hearing of how Steven could lift Spinel's injector ''while dying'', she internally expresses hope that she'll be able to see his full power in person someday.
* BettyAndVeronica: [[PlayingWithATrope Played with]]. Jasper can be said to be the '''Veronica''' to Connie's '''Betty''' and Steven's '''Archie''', being the exotic, edgy one with the icy personality. However, there's no negative tension between the two, and Steven very obviously loves them both, just in slightly different, reciprocated ways.
* BashBrothers: With Steven.
* CharacterTics: Has a minor habit of scratching at her horns and corruption scars.
* DeadpanSnarker: Her dialogue swerves between BrutalHonesty and getting verbal hits whatever chance she gets.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: InvokedTrope by the author. Steven and Jasper's relationship is rough, physical, intimate, and private, based on a shared need. The author specifically framed the surface dynamic of their relationship to resemble a love affair. The part of the series specifically dedicated to their relationship is even called ''A Love Affair, But Exit Left''. It stops being mere subtext when they start being actual queerplatonic partners.
* EveryoneHasStandards: She likes fighting with Steven, for the virtues of having a mutually indestructible punching bag, and just having a quality brawl, but she very quickly draws the line at Steven possibly using her as a vehicle to hurt himself.
* HiddenDepths:
** In ''Diamond Drop'' she proves to be very pragmatic, able to judge the soundness of Steven's choices for the diplomatic team while offering sound advice.
** She doesn't seem to genuinely appreciate her physical superiority over other Gems the way she acts to, being rather ambivalent about it as well as other Gems' reactions to it.
** When thinking about [[WorthyOpponent Steven's strength]], she appreciates his ''mental strength'' before noting his physical strength.
** She only enjoys mutual fighting. If someone can't fight anymore, she stops.
** She calls Steven "the first and only choice I made for myself", implying that while she acknowledges her past actions as selfish, she did not view her time as Malachite or the events surrounding her corruption as choices she really made for her own benefit.
* LadyAndKnight: Steven is the '''Lady''' to Jasper's '''Knight'''. Their exchange in Chapter 12 of ''A Love Affair, But Exit Left'' could even be said to be their exchange of vows.
* NotSoDifferent: Aside from finding a rare physical equal, Steven and Jasper aren't so emotionally different. They both have the shared past of [[BrokenAce Broken Aces]] born into Pink Diamond's war, suffering the consequences of her deception. They also both resent their exalted status, and on a more sinister note, share a kind of repressed wrath over the mental/physical restraint they have to exercise on a daily basis because of their power.
* OnlyFriend: Doesn't like to socialize and outright ''avoids'' interaction for the most part, with the sole exception of Steven.
* PercussiveTherapy: She and Steven engage in this. As a [[SemiDivine Diamond]] and a [[SuperSoldier perfect cut Quartz]] respectively, they're pretty much the only Gems that they can freely vent at without destroying the other.
* StrengthEqualsWorthiness: Her friendship with Steven began with him proving his strength to her. She admires his power for what it is, but more deeply appreciates that it makes him an equal, something she sorely lacks in other Gems.
* SuperSoldier: She's a "euhedral" Gem, aka perfect cut- she's larger and stronger than any Quartz could hope to be.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Jasper and Steven fight- in every way. Which is exactly why they're friends.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: Or rather, violently protective QPP(queerplatonic partner).
** She looms threatheningly beside Steven throughout the Asgard portion of ''Diamond Drop'', giving Thor a DeathGlare when he's about to be left alone with Steven.
** WordOfGod also confirmed that the bodyguard who chased after Steven's failed assassin in ''Aliens Steal Cable'' was Jasper.
* YoureNotMyFather: Refuses to acknowledge Steven as her Diamond, forgoing any of his titles or even his actual name, using [[InsultOfEndearment Insults Of Endearment]] to refer to him instead. At least until Chapter 11, occurring post-''SU:F'', where Jasper starts referring to him as her Diamond, though she isn't above using the same petty names as before.

* AccidentalMisnaming: Has a habit of misnaming or over-generalizing organic creatures, such as calling flowers "dogs".
* AdmiringTheAbomination: After hearing of how Steven could lift Spinel's injector ''while dying'', she internally expresses hope that she'll be able to see his full power in person someday.
* BettyAndVeronica: [[PlayingWithATrope Played with]]. Jasper can be said to be the '''Veronica''' to Connie's '''Betty''' and Steven's '''Archie''', being the exotic, edgy one with the icy personality. However, there's no negative tension between the two, and Steven very obviously loves them both, just in slightly different, reciprocated ways.
* BashBrothers: With Steven.
* CharacterTics: Has a minor habit of scratching at her horns and corruption scars.
* DeadpanSnarker: Her dialogue swerves between BrutalHonesty and getting verbal hits whatever chance she gets.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: InvokedTrope by the author. Steven and Jasper's relationship is rough, physical, intimate, and private, based on a shared need. The author specifically framed the surface dynamic of their relationship to resemble a love affair. The part of the series specifically dedicated to their relationship is even called ''A Love Affair, But Exit Left''. It stops being mere subtext when they start being actual queerplatonic partners.
* EveryoneHasStandards: She likes fighting with Steven, for the virtues of having a mutually indestructible punching bag, and just having a quality brawl, but she very quickly draws the line at Steven possibly using her as a vehicle to hurt himself.
* HiddenDepths:
** In ''Diamond Drop'' she proves to be very pragmatic, able to judge the soundness of Steven's choices for the diplomatic team while offering sound advice.
** She doesn't seem to genuinely appreciate her physical superiority over other Gems the way she acts to, being rather ambivalent about it as well as other Gems' reactions to it.
** When thinking about [[WorthyOpponent Steven's strength]], she appreciates his ''mental strength'' before noting his physical strength.
** She only enjoys mutual fighting. If someone can't fight anymore, she stops.
** She calls Steven "the first and only choice I made for myself", implying that while she acknowledges her past actions as selfish, she did not view her time as Malachite or the events surrounding her corruption as choices she really made for her own benefit.
* LadyAndKnight: Steven is the '''Lady''' to Jasper's '''Knight'''. Their exchange in Chapter 12 of ''A Love Affair, But Exit Left'' could even be said to be their exchange of vows.
* NotSoDifferent: Aside from finding a rare physical equal, Steven and Jasper aren't so emotionally different. They both have the shared past of [[BrokenAce Broken Aces]] born into Pink Diamond's war, suffering the consequences of her deception. They also both resent their exalted status, and on a more sinister note, share a kind of repressed wrath over the mental/physical restraint they have to exercise on a daily basis because of their power.

* WorkingWithTheEx: Jasper isn't necessarily a Crystal Gem, being devoted to Steven specifically. That being said, the fact that Jasper ''is'' so close to Steven means that they'll have to cross paths eventually, which happens in ''Tax Benefits'' when both Lapis and Jasper are invited to Steven and Connie's wedding.

to:
* BrattyTeenageDaughter: DownplayedTrope. AlienFairFolk: In-universe, Gems are conflated with figures of various human myth, even occasionally being referred to as such, due to their presence influencing human culture. When Steven visits the Maheswaran family in India, he's called a ''rakshesha'', a Hindu folkloric creature used as a slang word for Gems due to the similarity.
* TheAgeless: Gems do not age in the mortal sense, and will not die of it, but a Gem's appearance is dependent on their mental state, and thus a Gem's body can reflect mental aging to an extent.
* BeePeople: Though notreally insectoid by any means, Gemkind and their society is vaguely eusocial in structure, with division of labor between biological castes with drastic dimorphism, the sterile general populace, and how reproduction relies on a brat, she very small caste. The Diamonds, the royal/reproductive caste, are also the largest Gem type, similar to insect queens.[[note]]The sole exception to the size rule being Steven, who is still has tall by human standards and outranks all other Gems in ''strength''.[[/note]]
* BizarreAlienReproduction: New gems are made by collecting thealoof, lazy personality associated aura of all the Diamonds and inserting it into the ground of planets that bear organic life.
* BizarreAlienPsychology: ImpliedTrope. Gems, over the course of the series, hint at a psychology that is at odds with how humans function.
** Biologically driven concepts like sexuality and beauty are incomprehensible to them- "beauty" as Gems know it is defined by thetrope, unique skills, personality, and experiences of an individual.
** A Gem in ''Aliens Steal Cable'' is shown to have trouble understanding concepts like theft or trash.
** Not even Steven is safe from this, showing a slight disregard/non-understanding of human government authority in ''Diamond Drop'' (emphasizing that the general populace approved of his actions) and a benign TheEndJustifiesTheMeans attitude (if everything was fixed in the end and people are safe, does it matter what happened?)

* AmbiguousDisorder: In addition to displaying shades of the anxiety disorder her canon counterpart shares, her blunt, impulsive, and occasionally socially unaware behavior may land her on the autism spectrum. Her proposal is even framed as an infodump, a common behavior when autistic people become passionate/excited about something.
* ActionGirlfriend: And later [[RelationshipUpgrade Action Wife]]. Her strength and skill in combat is explicitly stated to be part of [[AmazonChaser why Steven is attracted to her]].
* AudienceSurrogate: Serves as the primary one for ''Like A Word, A Sound, A Song'', which specifically focuses on Connie's interactions with the alien aspects of Steven and other Gems.
* BattleCouple: With Steven, both seperately and as [[RomanticFusion Stevonnie]].
* [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Bifauxnen Bifauxnen]]: In ''Diamond Drop'', Thor describes her as very tall and handsome, as well as dressed like a prince.

Connie is the '''Betty''' to Jasper's '''Veronica''' and Steven's '''Archie''', being the (relatively) more gentle and supportive [[ChildhoodFriends Childhood Friend]]. Their dynamic lacks the classic negative tension, though, and Steven very obviously loves them both, albeit in slightly different ways.
* BollywoodNerd: She graduates high school as a valedictorian, and is accepted into Columbia and NYU, both high-profile universities.
* BoringButPractical: Her reason for marrying Steven so young? Not out of love, per se (though love him she does), but to game the FAFSA tax calculation system so she can get better financial aid for college.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: While technically not ''enhanced'' by any means, Steven's healing powers allowed her to push her body far beyond a normal human could have, allowing her to build up her muscle/bone strength in a very short period of time.
* CoveredInScars: Pearl's training, combined with the instantaneous nature of Steven's healing, has driven her body to this, with her hands being described as "calluses on calluses".
* DitzyGenius: Her curiosity makes her impulsive. Case in point, in ''Like A Word, A Sound, A Song'' she sticks her hand into Steven's mouth after seeing his [[ScaryTeeth semi-retractable fangs]].
* DivineDate: Considering how Diamonds are revered as the progenitors and borderline gods of the Gem race, her relationship with Steven can be seen as this.

* TooMuchForManToHandle: DiscussedTrope. Stevonnie possesses Steven's alien anatomy and senses, but Connie retains very little sense memory of it once she unfuses, due to her human mind physically being unable to process it.
* TouchedByVorlons: It's not yet shown to what extent Steven's healing has modified her, but at the very least she has now become totally immune to the [[BrownNote high/low frequency effects]] of gemsong, and she can interface with Gem technology to some extent.
* WackyMarriageProposal: She proposes to Steven in a rather unromantic way, spouting off a WallOfText about FAFSA tax calculations and joint income while he's half drunk at her eighteenth birthday/Christmas party.

* BattleCouple: With Steven, both seperately and as [[RomanticFusion Stevonnie]].
* [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Bifauxnen Bifauxnen]]: In ''Diamond Drop'', Thor describes her as very tall and handsome, as well as dressed like a prince.
* BettyAndVeronica: [[PlayingWithATrope Played with]]. Connie is the '''Betty''' to Jasper's '''Veronica''' and Steven's '''Archie''', being the (relatively) more gentle and supportive [[ChildhoodFriends Childhood Friend]]. Their dynamic lacks the classic negative tension, though, and Steven very obviously loves them both, albeit in slightly different ways.
* BollywoodNerd: She graduates high school as a valedictorian, and is accepted into Columbia and NYU, both high-profile universities.
* BoringButPractical: Her reason for marrying Steven so young? Not out of love, per se (though love him she does), but to game the FAFSA tax calculation system so she can get better financial aid for college.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: While technically not ''enhanced'' by any means, Steven's healing powers allowed her to push her body far beyond a normal human could have, allowing her to build up her muscle/bone strength in a very short period of time.
* CoveredInScars: Pearl's training, combined with the instantaneous nature of Steven's healing, has driven her body to this, with her hands being described as "calluses on calluses".
* DitzyGenius: Her curiosity makes her impulsive. Case in point, in ''Like A Word, A Sound, A Song'' she sticks her hand into Steven's mouth after seeing his [[ScaryTeeth semi-retractable fangs]].
* DivineDate: Considering how Diamonds are revered as the progenitors and borderline gods of the Gem race, her relationship with Steven can be seen as this.
* InterspeciesRomance: Eventually marries Steven, a half-Diamond.
* KnifeNut: Mostly PlayedForLaughs. She has a collection of human and alien knives, and apparently frequently carries one. Not to mention the sword.
** This turns out to be a manifestation of her PTSD.
* TheMaidenNameDebate: Connie keeps her maiden name after marrying Steven.
* MeaningfulName: Her name on Gem documents, "Kahaani Maheswaran". ''Kahaani'' means story/fable in Hindi, and Maheswaran is a Tamil name meaning ''Lord of the Universe'', one of the epithets of Shiva. So all together, her name can be rendered as ''[[AwesomeMcCoolname Story of the Lord of the Universe]]''.
* MyNaymeIs: On human documents, she's Connie Maheswaran, but on Gem documents she's Kahaani Maheswaran.
* ShellShockedVeteran: She's shown to suffer from PTSD in ''Godspeed You Stargirl'', and seeing a therapist for it.
* StatuesqueStunner: Grows up to be around Thor's height by ''Diamond Drop''(Chris Hemsworth is ''6'3"'', mind you).

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: InvokedTrope by the author. Steven and Jasper's relationship is rough, physical, intimate, and private, based on a shared need. The author specifically framed the surface dynamic of their relationship to resemble a love affair. The part of the series specifically dedicated to their relationship is even called ''A Love Affair, But Exit Left''. It stops being mere subtext when they start being actual queerplatonic partners.
* EveryoneHasStandards: She likes fighting with Steven, for the virtues of having a mutually indestructible punching bag, and just having a quality brawl, but she very quickly draws the line at Steven possibly using her as a vehicle to hurt himself.
* HiddenDepths:
** In ''Diamond Drop'' she proves to be very pragmatic, able to judge the soundness of Steven's choices for the diplomatic team while offering sound advice.
** She doesn't seem to genuinely appreciate her physical superiority over other Gems the way she acts to, being rather ambivalent about it as well as other Gems' reactions to it.
** When thinking about [[WorthyOpponent Steven's strength]], she appreciates his ''mental strength'' before noting his physical strength.

* StrengthEqualsWorthiness: Her friendship with Steven began with him proving his strength to her. She admires his power for what it is, but more deeply appreciates that it makes him an equal, something she sorely lacks in other Gems.

* VitriolicBestBuds: Jasper and Steven fight- in every way. Which is exactly why they're friends.

* TheAlcoholic: Post-''Thor 1'', he's started to slip into this, a habit which he hides from his parents. The aftermath of Loki's (supposed) death, the increased stress of Asgard's political situation, and Odin's declining health have started to take its toll.
* AmbiguouslyBi: Thor and Lars' DidTheyOrDidntThey moment aside- Thor might have a bit of a crush on Steven. His narration calls Steven handsome, with pretty eyes, and Thor is very, well... [[PowerIsSexy enamored]] with the Diamond's power. Most telling is that in both cases, Sif and The Three teased him like he had a crush.
* AmbiguousDisorder: Thor's narrative voice is pessimistic, anxious, and downright despairing at times, resembling the thoughts of someone with depression/anxiety.
* BigBrotherInstinct: For all his BigBrotherBully habits, Loki's seeming suicide hit him very hard, to the point where it's all but stated that the events of ''Thor 1'' legitimately traumatized him.
* BoisterousBruiser: He challenges Steven to a ''[[TrialByCombat holmgang]]'' over some information that Thor possesses, with them both agreeing that Thor was to lose the match. But Thor was so enthusiastic to find out that [[SemiDivine Steven]] could match his strength at every turn that it turned into a real duel anyway.
* HiddenDepths:
** This incarnation of Thor is willing to be more crafty and socially aware, since the looming political presence of Gemkind has motivated him to be more proactive.
** He's fully aware that Odin uses him as a political pawn, but as of ''Diamond Drop'' has started to become increasingly uncomfortable with simply following orders without question.
* MayflyDecemberRomance: Thor's ''aesir'' concept of time puts unintentional strain on his relationship with Jane. For someone with an expected lifespan of thousands of years, a few months is barely a blink of an eye, but for a human, it's a very long time to be apart.
* ParentalFavoritism: PlayedForDrama. Odin may have groomed Thor to be the heir and primary enforcer of Asgard, but it does not spare him from his father's wrath or manipulation- it just makes him a bigger target for it, due to the high expectations that Odin places on him.
* PosthumousSibling: He vaguely remarks that Loki is not the first brother he's seen die, though this has yet to be elaborated on.
* WellDoneSonGuy: DeconstructedTrope. Thor isn't a son overeager to please his father- it's [[ImpliedTrope heavily implied]] that he's actually ''terrified'' of Odin, and anxious to the point of paranoia that Odin may find out any actions he wouldn't approve of.

Thor Odinson, God of Thunder, Chosen of Mjølnir, Heir to the Throne of Asgard.
Added DiffLines:
* TheAlcoholic: Post-''Thor 1'', he's started to slip into this, a habit which he hides from his parents. The aftermath of Loki's (supposed) death, the increased stress of Asgard's political situation, and Odin's declining health have started to take its toll.
* AmbiguouslyBi: Thor and Lars' DidTheyOrDidntThey moment aside- Thor might have a bit of a crush on Steven. His narration calls Steven handsome, with pretty eyes, and Thor is very, well... [[PowerIsSexy enamored]] with the Diamond's power. Most telling is that in both cases, Sif and The Three teased him like he had a crush.
* AmbiguousDisorder: Thor's narrative voice is pessimistic, anxious, and downright despairing at times, resembling the thoughts of someone with depression/anxiety.
* BigBrotherInstinct: For all his BigBrotherBully habits, Loki's seeming suicide hit him very hard, to the point where it's all but stated that the events of ''Thor 1'' legitimately traumatized him.
* BoisterousBruiser: He challenges Steven to a ''[[TrialByCombat holmgang]]'' over some information that Thor possesses, with them both agreeing that Thor was to lose the match. But Thor was so enthusiastic to find out that [[SemiDivine Steven]] could match his strength at every turn that it turned into a real duel anyway.
* HiddenDepths:
** This incarnation of Thor is willing to be more crafty and socially aware, since the looming political presence of Gemkind has motivated him to be more proactive.
** He's fully aware that Odin uses him as a political pawn, but as of ''Diamond Drop'' has started to become increasingly uncomfortable with simply following orders without question.
* MayflyDecemberRomance: Thor's ''aesir'' concept of time puts unintentional strain on his relationship with Jane. For someone with an expected lifespan of thousands of years, a few months is barely a blink of an eye, but for a human, it's a very long time to be apart.
* ParentalFavoritism: PlayedForDrama. Odin may have groomed Thor to be the heir and primary enforcer of Asgard, but it does not spare him from his father's wrath or manipulation- it just makes him a bigger target for it, due to the high expectations that Odin places on him.
* PosthumousSibling: He vaguely remarks that Loki is not the first brother he's seen die, though this has yet to be elaborated on.
* WellDoneSonGuy: DeconstructedTrope. Thor isn't a son overeager to please his father- it's [[ImpliedTrope heavily implied]] that he's actually ''terrified'' of Odin, and anxious to the point of paranoia that Odin may find out any actions he wouldn't approve of. When Steven asks if the two of them simply ''having a private conversation'' puts the prince in danger, Thor realizes he honestly doesn't know.

** His heartbeat is negligible by mortal standards, similar to Lars and Lion.
** He speaks in gemsong, the natural Gem language, which contains a variety of sounds that a human mouth physically cannot make.
** He is also confirmed to have his mother's [[ExoticEyeDesigns diamond pupils]], which can constrict into an even more alien [[HellishPupils crosshair shape]].
** When he sleeps, he's apparently nearly indistinguishable from a dead body, lacking the natural movements and breathing of human sleep.
** There's also the fact that his body fluids- such as sweat, saliva, and tears- can repair objects and organic tissue, create sentient life, and resurrect the dead.
** As is typical to Gems, he has [[ScaryTeeth semi-retractable fangs]].
