Well, I have been gone for awhile. I don't think it's really possible to put a stop to discussions like this forever, until the question has been answered, one way or another.

Huh, I forgot about that agreement. That's nice. This will be some reprieve from the stupid Jasper discourse (TM) that I've been seeing quite a bit on my dash. smile

I kinda wanna make Amethyst my avatar now. Maybe I will.

Someone brought up the way Villeco and Molisee draw Amethyst, and I feel like pointing out they're the only ones who regularly show both of her eyes.

Her hair also looked interesting this episode. I was thinking her weird regeneration was the Purple Puma at first, but the idea that it's her trying to make herself big could also be it. That or she has the potential to be bigger, but doesn't settle on it because it's not good for her.

I hope Amethyst gets to kick Jasper's ass at some future point.

I mean, I still do think she's getting a redemption arc, but holy hell does she deserve an asskicking. And wouldn't it be awesome if it was from someone she considered an overcooked runt?

Did the head thing that Jasper wears look bigger than what we've seen before or is it just me?

It didn't really look bigger to me, but I could be wrong.

You know it's good when you actually start to worry even when you know you shouldn't. For a second there, against all better logic, I was actually worried Amethyst might get shattered.

It might be just because we haven't seen it in awhile, so it looks bigger than I remembered.

Yeah the visor looked a bit bigger too. But the top is what I noticed.

I still find her helmet to be a weird weapon. Quartzes are supposedly built for fighting, but it seems really impractical.

It would be unbelievably sweet if Peridot was the one who got Amethyst to believe in herself again after this. Like in "Too Short to Ride" in reverse. The Shorty Squad's gotta look out for each other.

[up][up]It is an odd weapon choice, especially since we haven't seen her use anything else.

Headbutting isn't impractical...they're close range powerhouse fighters.

Headbutting is impractical for humans, but since gems don't have physical brains it wouldn't be that impractical

Yeah, but you'd think she'd have something like an axe, or a gauntlet, or a sword, or, well, anything besides that awkward headbutting centric fighting style.

hey so guess whats not happening

a jasper redemption arc is what

Steven would forgive her if she apologized so yeah, it's probably happening.

Nice to see Stevonnie kicking ass. Kinda figured that's how that was how Steven and Connie were going to get involved in fights from now on.

Jasper's addicted to fusion.

I just did a spit-take because I imagined Jasper running around left and right shouting "SOMEBODY FUCK ME!"

Your momma's so dumb she thinks oral sex means talking dirty.

#37120: Aug 2nd 2016 at 5:46:58 PM

That reminds me, where did the idea that fusing represented sex come from? It never read that way to me, and it'd make Stevonnie and Garnet (and the plot of Giant Woman) really uncomfortable.

Whatever she feels about fusion, she apparently draws the lines at fusing with humans.

[up][up][up]That just seemed like a quintessentially Steven line, not any foreshadowing. And why did you spoiler that?

I still don't understand what the hell Jasper's plan was, or how she thought it could have worked. She was really damn lucky Pearl and Garnet weren't there, because honestly? She would have died. Jasper is freaking ridiculous. She only seemed more effective than pre-redemption Peri because she got really lucky. I'm so happy she's our new ineffectual villain.

I'm open to it representing sex sometimes but the way people talk like it's always sex seems like it's belittling what they were actually going for. I think people do that a lot with this series, actually.

[up]She's a lot more threatening than Peridot. The two aren't being treated the same, as far as I can see. Peridot was openly used for comedy and Jasper...isn't.

[up]@36772 I used to have a tumblr

In fact, I had 2. My mom found both.

In short, I'm not supposed to have internet friends, and that pissed her off to no end.
