Folks, general point to the leaked episode list (we're allowed to talk about that grand old list, right? It's been out for ages, the one with shit like Back 2 The Moon and what not). Amethyst's story is far, far from over, and we haven't even begun to look at her backstory or her progression as a character.

Granted, her backstory isn't as complicated as Pearl's but I'd say it's more complicated than Garnet's, whose backstory we've basically already seen. We know how Garnet became Garnet, and it's not hard to see how that Garnet became our Garnet. Any further flashbacks would more be focusing on the way she dealt with and in certain events.

Well people here talk about that list all the time here, so I guess it's free to discuss. They're only episode titles, so they aren't really leaks of high importance.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

Crack The Whip and Steven Vs. Amethyst suggest an Amethyst arc. Like, who the hell else has to do with whips other than Amethyst? Now, Steven vs Amethyst could be referring to an different Amethyst, but even then i'm sure that she'll still feature majorly in that episode.

And potentially Betas as well, considering the talk of a Beta Kindergarten.

Discrimination during War: A Garnet Story.

I'd like to see Garnet's devolution into that mostly emotionless beast state that she usually has.

All I said is that I find Amethyst boring (still do), and that her character arc lead nowhere (still true). Taking that as anything else than what I said is exaggerating my words extremely.

Granted, her backstory isn't as complicated as Pearl's but I'd say it's more complicated than Garnet's, whose backstory we've basically already seen. We know how Garnet became Garnet, and it's not hard to see how that Garnet became our Garnet. Any further flashbacks would more be focusing on the way she dealt with and in certain events.
Yeah, no I don't see it

Amethyst: I was born. They found me in a hole in the ground. I feel bad about it. Also I never got to see all the cool stuff.

Pearl: I used to be a serf. Then I was Zorro. Then my glorious leader who was also the love of my life died. I still have inferiority issues.

Garnet: I accidentally fused with a gem outside of my caste. We were rejected for it They attempted to lynch me, we ran, and over time fell in love. Because I was a fusion I (probably) took a large part in the war, and eventually became the rebel leader. Also my enemies hated me so much just for existing that they used the concept of fusion to create mutants and world destroying super weapons just to spite me

Okay, I think we get it. I have different thoughts on the character, but I get the feeling that an accord is not gonna be reached by having that discussion.


My least favorite character is [N/A]

Ok, we have a bit of an issue here. People are insisting on adding spoilers to the Steven Universe page from the early aired episodes, and I'm unsure if that's kosher or not. What do?

@Smartgirl: I hate to be nitpicky, but Jasper had nothing to do with the earthquakes. That was the Cluster.

I feel like that isn't fair, because Garnet has more-or-less no present trouble that came from her backstory - or at least she doesn't let it get to her.

If Pearl or Amethyst start talking about their past they'd be on the verge of an emotional breakdown. Garnet was even able to make it into a happy fairy-tale for Steven.

It's possible that both Malachite and the Cluster caused their own tremors.

The driluniverse post was probably not referring to the cluster earthquakes. Frybo's ketchup isn't "pistachio shit" either but the. tweet. still. fits.

[up]x4 Garnet only very recently found out about da fusion experiments...while she had quite the reaction to the concept as well as the shards were shattered Crystal Gems, she's been reall chill since.

She has no obvious inner-turmoil.

[up] Is that...not...what I said?

Or rather, I actually didn't even mention the Forced-Fusion-Zombies. I was talking about like, the actual backstory of Garnet.
