Why would she?

Warriors don't need accessory servant maids.

If did though, why wasn't she there...?

Pearls always struck me as more of a status symbol than as a servant you get to help around the house.

Oh really when?

Rose had one, and presumably all Quartz's are around the same level of status.

Sort of doubt it. A Jasper is an elite mook to Rubys foot soldieryness. A Rose Quartz would be like a general.

I found this comical.

I'm sure Steven will never eat watermelon again. evil grin

Or at least only eat seedless watermelons. Got to use protection!

Yeah, it seen gems have some sort of caste, is more of less like this

Diamonds: supreme authority

Quarz: it looks like generals

Jaspers: elite mooks, overseers...capitans?

Peridot: it see to be engenier of sort

Ruby: foot soldier

I dont know where saphire fix in the entire caste-thing going on since I havent seen 2 season that much(only four episode so far) also, is just me or saphire have super speed? she run REALLY fast in that master hand ship

She does. And Jaspers are a type of Quartz. So is Amethyst for that matter.

Actually why don't you go watch season 2 before continuing this discussion. Some things are explained and other questions are brought up.

I'd hate to spoil you or something.

Jaspers and Amethysts are both kinds of Quartz.

Also.

Although Pearl could probably figure out not to sweep the floor with the handle.

She shouldn't be forced to because Peri's being racist though. She isn't a slave anymore.

I wasn't saying that Pearl should do it.

Just that its funny that Peridot laughed at the idea of doing chore and then got it so wrong.

Pearl's good at doing chores.

Apparently she's taken over the chore wheel so she's doing all the chores.

That's a detail that makes me wince in hindsight. It probably isn't good for her.

Its probably better that she's choosing to assimilate all the chores but Steven did still put his foot down.

I wonder if a Pearl is "close enough" to being a squire to fulfill the same societal role. Minus the part where the squire becomes a knight, obviously.

Pearl wasn't an squire, she was an slave. Stop whitewashing this.

Are you seriously accusing people here of whitewashing?

In a non-racial sense, whitewashing means making something horrible out to be great.

Comparing slavery to being a squire would be an example.
