I keep seeing everyone talking about how kick-butt Lapis was in the latest episode, and while I DEFINITELY agree, let’s not ignore some of the other chararacters-
First of all, there’s Garnet
Despite clearly being affected/weakened by Blue Diamond’s power, she still was able to hold her ground and fight back
And before you mention Lapis and Connie, they weren’t affected, the power had no hold on them, Garnet WAS, and yet here she is, still going strong and not letting it knock her down
Not to mention, she was also able to stay fused, while Alexandrite-
As you can clearly see, wasnt
Furthermore, she did all of this after her wedding was ruined?? You go girl!
Then there’s Pearl, whose whole strategy for thousands of years was “do it for her” and just recently “do it for him”
She’s always fought for someone else, never herself. She never thought herself was a worthy enough reason to be fighting for, so she devoted herself to others instead, that is until this episode, where she proudly exclaims “I DO IT FOR ME!” Like alright Pearl!
Then there’s Connie, who, despite being a mere human, saw that her friends were all in trouble and was totally ready to take down Blue Diamond ON HER OWN
And let’s not forget this was the lonely, shy girl we met back in season one!
It’s amazing seeing how far she’s come since then :)
And finally, as comical as this scene was, let’s all take a moment to look back and remember how freaked out and terrified Peridot was when she first called Yellow Diamond a clod
She was so scared she’d come for her and shatter her on the spot
But now, here she is, running up to Yellow Diamond, IN PERSON, once again calling her a clod to her face
Like, that takes some guts
Bottom line is, I think these guys deserve some acknowledgment as well
Part 2……Finally….

Next up is the fusion for Ametrine & Pietersite (Starfire & Raven): Mystic Blue Quartz
I’m still getting a feel for some of these fusions. but I think Mystic Blue here would kinda be the mom to everyone. Stern, loving, and protective/angry as fuck if anybody hurts the team. With the mix of Ametrine’s open nature & Raven’s knowledge of dealing with emotions, that makes Mystic a good gem to go to for emotional advice or if you just need some quiet/non-judgemental comfort.
…She’s also be the one to suggest teamwork-building activities. Which can range anywhere from making friendship bracelets to meditation. XD
I personally think ^^^^ this four would make a great superhero or villain group c:
✨❤ The Ballet theme of a Lapis/Pearl fusion ❤✨
‘bout time I got around to drawing more TTGems. :)
So here we’ve got Kid Flash as Sunstone, Jinx as Iolite, & Jericho as Vesuvianite. You can probably already tell who’s the ‘Peridot’/reluctant-enemy-turned-ally in all this~ :P
Some of you might argue that Jinx doesn’t need limb enhancers since she’s not short but…she kind of is? Not to the degree she is in this AU, but have you seen the platform heels she wears in the cartoon?? XD Plus, thinking of short Iolite & tall Sunstone being cute & flirty together is adorable. aka: I love me some height differences in pairings
Anyway, I sadly can’t remember who suggested the gem for Jericho. >_< But whoever did, thank you for the suggestion. ^v^
(( EDIT: Okay, so thanks goes to @wigglytoughazshit for Jericho’s gem suggestion! Thank you~ ))
Totally forgot to post this lol anyway heres Raven just chilling
What do you think she’s thinking?
