[up][up][up][up] Okay. Good. Thank you. I suspect the upcoming episode she mentioned is going to be dealing with Ruby and Sapphire splitting up again, so it should be soon. A pact Garnet made with Rose makes more sense than Rose accidentally brainwashing Garnet into not being able to ask questions. Because there is definitely something going on in "Know Your Fusion," where Garnet tells Pearl that she can't ask a question, and Pearl saying "riiight," like she remembers why.

Is it strange I don't feel sad about the lost of Rose as an independent character from Pink, even though it does actually affects the serie thematically, but the inverse is true?

I just feel sad that I cannot longer feel sad for a bratty young monarch who is dethroned when shes just starting to, well, rule something.

Think they're still going to keep referring to her as "Rose" or will it be "Pink" from now on?

Mix it up...

Or use the relevant name when necessary...

Probably Rose, after it all shakes down. Unless her original identity is relevant at the moment, effectively Pink Diamond is in a state of That Man Is Dead.

Obviously they would call her Rose on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and call her Pink Diamond on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, while on Sundays they trade off every week.

To compromise they'll refer to her as 'Pink Quartz'

I'm just wondering if the revelation will lead to Steven's Gem changing now that he knows he's not a Quartz but a Diamond

Maybe he'll change his name to Steven D Universe and start adventuring to find the One Piece.

Actually, this means that BOTH Steven's parents changed their names.

Pink Diamond —> Rose Quartz

And both original better names start with D. Deception! Coincidence? I think so *nods smugly*

Pink Quartz.

Rose Diamond.

What if we go in the middle and say Light Red Chrysoberyl.

I have a feeling he'll be spending a lot more time with Connie. The poor guy's probably freaked shitless, and Connie is his safety net when this sort of thing hits.

@54319 Huh... that actually made me look up this information, because I was intensely curious. X-rays actually could have proven that the gem in Steven's navel was not quartz, but not in the way people would have expected. Turns out that diamonds are almost invisible to x-rays, so they wouldn't get any clear shape of the gem in Steven. However, quartz tends to produce dark spots on an x-ray, particularly naturally-produced quartz (although feel free to split hairs as to whether or not a gem in SU parlance would count). In theory, unless you had a very precise x-ray, taking one of Steven wouldn't reveal any gem, which would be a clue that he wasn't descended from a quartz.

That said, an MRI would be able to get the shape of the gem.

[up]That's assuming that Gems' gems are literally made out of the materials they're named after.

She's the False Rose of Homeworld

How fitting that there is a plant called the Rose of Jericho names include resurrection plant, and..resurrection moss,

@54335 Fair point. Also, that Steven would be taken in for x-rays for some reason (even if you do accept that he'd go in for some reason, the MRI in modern medicine makes more sense on multiple levels). It's more of a thought exercise than anything else.

I remember when people were calling Rose a monster for shattering Pink Diamond, now people are calling Pink Diamond a monster for rebelling.

That viewing globe Lapis found. Was everything we saw live? Were there some recordings? The episode starts out at night, but the scene with Peridot and the Gems seemed to be at sunrise. (Or possibly sunset.) Would Steven finding Lion and warping to the moon, going out to the barn, looking around, then going back to the base been long enough for the sun to rise?

I feel like that episode got shafted, because it didn't have a revelation that turned the whole series on its head.

Gems don't sleep so I like to imagine when Steven goes to bed the Gems continue on,doing whatever,so in time it took for Steven warp to the moon Peridot was dragged out of the bath to mess about with tin cans

It's a funny image either way

@Kaiseror: I’m more seeing accusations of cowardice for refusing to openly stand up to the other Diamonds.

I wonder if they'll be able to bring back the barn? Seems kind of unfair for Peri having to live in the bathroom now that they know where it is.

Also, as a substitute name for Steven's mom, I suggest 'Rose Quitz'.

Not sure if it's within their powersets honestly. It's probably too big for Lion to warp. If they could get some metal under there Peridot could try but she's struggled with far smaller. Maybe Alexandrite could try lifting it but again, it is on the moon.

Know where the barn is? Wouldn't Lapis have taken it when she left?
