Steven doesn't look fourteen, and neither does Connie, so they both would need ID or a parental chaperone. I mean, Connie should be 13 by now, but Stevonnie flashed her school ID and it wasn't valid.

In Universe Connie should look old enough...

Steven still looks like an 8 year old, but...it should be fine.

That's where things get confusing.

MST3K Mantra time, I suppose.

Though if Connie is in middle school, that could put her at 12 minimum. Possibly 11. One thing I learned in my area of Idaho is that middle school starts in sixth grade, not seventh, which is what I was always used to. The main thing we know is Steven recently turned fourteen in-series and Connie was surprised to learn he was the older one.

Connie outright said she's "twelve and three quarters" in the birthday episode, IIRC.

Here's how the scene played out:

  • Steven and Connie ask for tickets to the movie
  • Attendant says it's PG-13 and they need a guardian (because she assumes they're not teenagers yet)
  • They walk away, fuse, return.
  • Attendant asks for ID
  • Stevonnie produces Connie's student ID, and it's invalid.
Now, even if Connie is 13 (if it's been 3+ months since Steven's Birthday), the school ID has her date of birth (not sure it will), AND school I Ds are acceptable at this theater (probably), they'd still have to wait until a new attendant is on shift to try and produce it.

Or else get Steven an ID somehow.

There's not really a reason for a school ID to have the D.o.B.

Putting the literal techno wizard in charge of a supernatural themed attraction seems contradictory, yet perfect.

Maybe curing corruption is a simple as submerging the gem in a mixture of Steven's spit and Rose's tears.

Ok, question: apparently there's been some criticisms of the color palette lately? I've heard some rumblings about it and I don't know if this is a criticism as big as the off model criticisms, but it's apparently been brought up some.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

I haven't really noticed it, and I usually have an eye for animation.

[up][up][up][up] Ugh, yeah. I think the off model criticisms have definitely gotten more traction, but I few weeks ago I couldn't go very far through the tag without coming across a couple Lapis redesign posts, or a few just pointing it out. I think it spread to Peridot, too.

Is there any merit towards criticisms of the color palette? Like, any posts comparing it or something?

I was browsing through Tumblr and I saw a post shared by one of the guys on Rebel Taxi's podcast (they're all Steven Universe fans I should add), and it was a joke about how if Bismuth came back they'd just shunt her to the barn and she'd get smaller (complete with a redesign that admittedly made me chuckle). The same post mentioned the color palate complaints, which make me curious about what exactly they mean.

The only inconsistency I noticed with color palette is that Kevin's looks the same in all lighting, even though Stevonnie's looked drastically different in the darkly-lit rave where Kevin first appeared.

[up] Kevin's day palette is really different compared to his party palette, though.

I think they may be talking about the way that Lapis and Peridot are colored in a lot of scenes. Just like how Peridot seems to have shrunk, they've both become very saturated it seems. I noticed it, but it's a minor thing. Personally, my favorite palette for Lapis was the dark one she had in her first scene, but meh.

Their day palettes are the same colors they were in Jail Break.
