I still think he's just a late bloomer.

It was kind of ambiguous (if I recall correctly, he found a facial hair at the end of the episode) but my interpretation is that he will reach adulthood eventually but can mess with his ageing via shapeshifting (including subconciously).

His aging is tied to his mental age, and only recently has it even occurred to him that he should be older than he is.
They really never reconciled the events of "So Many Birthdays" with "Steven's Birthday". We're kind of just left to assume Steven's semi-permanent age shifts aren't going to happen again.

If memory serves, CN put out a short where Garnet said that the height of a fusion is equal to the height of the fusees added together.
The short is "Fusion".
Garnet: The new forms have extra body parts, and the combined heights and strengths of the fusers.
I think she's just saying fusion cause a size increase, not specifying any formula. Many of them (Sugilite, Alexandrite, Malachite) are much taller than their parts' heights added together.

Also, human fusion might not work in quite the same way. Stevonnie gets no extra limbs.

Malachite is a fusion of two, relatively tall/human sized (Lapis) and large (Jasper), Gems. Alexandrite is a fusion of four. Fluorite, six, who may be smaller than the later two fusions (depending on the artist). Rhodonite is not bigger than Garnet, despite one of her component Gems being larger than Sapphire. Gem size doesn't matter nearly as much as artistic intent. And as seen in So Many Birthdays, adult Steven ain't that big.

If Stevonnie is merely tall compared to your average human, so be it.

In the "Sadie Killer" podcast, Lamar Abrams mentioned that was his last episode with Jeff Liu. Sure enough, a nonspoiler from the leak preview is that "Lars of the Stars" is Abrams/Lauren Zuke, whereas "Jungle Moon" is Liu and a new boarder named Miki Brewster.

Man, the teams were basically the same from "Cry for Help" to "Tiger Philanthropist" (there was just Howard replacing Johnston), now they're changing like crazy.

New clips of the two episodes are out. Also, more preview pics confirms Stevonnie indeed has a stubble. Be interesting to see what happens there. tongue

Thanks for all the answers on the matter of Steven's aging.

There's a really brief clip in a general CN 2018 preview of Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl in some kind of fight on Mask Island. So we'll probably see the Watermelon Stevens again.

EDIT: Scratch that, it's just a recycled clip from "Marble Madness".

[up] Didn't we see that clip of the three of them charging at something before? Garnet and Amethyst are in their debut outfits, so I think that part is something we've already seen, barring a new flashback.

I do think that explosion on Mask Island is new footage, though.

Ah, right. Wasn't paying attention to that part...

But now I realize that isn't true either.

It's from "Marble Madness"; one of several Distant Reaction Shots when they trashed the Plug Robonoids.

I forgot they went back to Mask Island before "Super Watermelon Island" (which was like the third time they showed a barrage of previous locations), and didn't expect them to use a clip from almost three years ago.

Just that episode's very existence is a spoiler.

[up]Technically anything can be a spoiler, but the separate thread is specifically for leaks—information we have reason to believe was released by accident (in this case from datamining the website).

Our spoiler for this thread is that anything from an aired episode or an officially release preview is fair game. The names and synopses for the next two episodes were released by official sources, and the promo that aired last week tells you everything you'd expect from them anyway.

I kind of want adult Stevonnie to have huge boobs and a rockin' moustache and beard.

Speaking of Stevonnie, Sugar posted some key frames she made of them for "Crack the Whip".

helpfully they circled them too

Boards and other art by Kat Morris, mostly of "Are You My Dad?

[up]All four are positioned as they are on the Diamond Emblem (and 180 degrees of how they are on the Fire Diamond).

I didn't even realize writing about what happens in an upcoming episode wasn't allowed here. Forgive me for being a newbie then.

[up][up] Lol, someone asked how Stevonnie uses the bathroom, that is an interesting question. xD I wonder if a fusion, even between a half-human/human, would even need to though.

Asking how non-binary, trans and intersex individuals go to the bathroom isn't an interesting question. It invades privacy at best and is bigoted at worst. Don't ask that question. Not calling you out; just something to keep in mind for the future.

I think it's more how two young teenagers in one body are capable of accepting their combined bodies enough to use the bathroom. The answer is that they probably don't. Steven and Connie probably defuse and go separately if Stevonnie needs to go.
