She possessed only a single pair of arms, and was slender and curvaceous with tall stature. While her palette is unknown due to the tinted lighting present in her most notable appearance, in concept art her palette depicts her having had a pink complexion with blonde or pink hair. It was long, large, and wavy like Rose's, while each tuft ended in a distinctive point like Pearl's. It’s not traditional, it’s not the common use of Fusion that we’ve been taught from the show, but it is what Steven is.Rainbow Quartz had multi-colored voluminous hair which appeared to be a mix of Pearl's and Rose's hair.

His mother became half of him, literally. Rose Quartz, despite being half of Steven, no longer exists after Steven was created. I’m saying that Rose Quartz, as she stated in “Lion 3: Straight to Video”, she would “become half of you. They assume that I mean that Rose and Steven are two separate beings that became one person. When people hear me claim that Steven is a Fusion, many of them automatically assume that I am referencing the default definition of how Gem-on-Gem Fusion works that we’ve been taught in the show. Steven turns the concept on its head, like he does with many aspects of Gem society by simply existing. You’re using the traditional concept of “Fusion” from the show itself to try and dismiss my post, whereas Steven himself is not traditional by any means. My post did not say that Steven wasn’t a full separate person. Calling steven a fusion implies he isn’t a full separate person and is absolutely proved wrong by the entire show That is what I mean when I say that Steven is a Fusion.įusions aren’t “something that can’t be created by a single entity” - fusions are defined by being unable to have separate existences from their components. It may not be what we’ve been taught is a conventional example of Fusion from the show, but it is, basically, what Steven is. Steven is, in essence, a Fusion of love, like me!” Garnet: “Not unlike a Fusion, Rose disappeared to create an entirely new being, with all of her self integrated into half of his self. If you need other points of evidence, Rebecca Sugar’s “ Guide to the Crystal Gems” has a portion (Pages 18 - 19: “How Is It Possible?!”) where the Crystal Gems explain Steven and how he can exist despite being half-Gem and half-Human. AĬombination of two different elements to create Something Entirely New. I think we can all agree that Steven is not, in any way, what is considered “traditional” to Gem society. The definition of Fusion is “ The process or result of joining two or more things together to form a single entity.” He was created through a combined effort of two beings. However… Steven, fundamentally, is still a Fusion. He is not a Fusion of Pink Diamond and Steven. As of “Change Your Mind”, we’ve had definitive proof that both halves of Steven are entirely Steven-based. Now, is he what we’ve seen to be a typical Gem application to a Fusion? No. Originally posted by nuclearfeels She’s gone. I know that, as Steven has eloquently put it… Yes, I’ve seen how Steven has been struggling for several seasons from an identity crisis because of this very idea.Īnd no, I don’t believe that Pink Diamond is still inside of Steven’s gemstone, waiting for the right opportunity to appear. I saw what happened when White Diamond ripped out Steven’s gem. Yes, I understand that Pink Diamond no longer exists. I agree that Steven is not a Fusion in the traditional Gem sense. To those who argue that “Steven is not a Fusion” from my previous post, here is my thought process. Steven Universe is A Fusion (Misleading Title)
