There have been plently of screenshots/stills where we've seen pupils of other gems. If you took the time to look you'd find them, so that's out.

2. Both gems are present. They just moved to their respective positions based on their respective owners (Jaspers' on her face and Lapis' wasn't seen because a clear unobstructed view of Malachite's back wasn't shown).

3. We haven't seen any gems with their respective gems in the same place so that's not a solid argument. It's a bit of a reach really.

4. She evened the playing field. It's a cheap tactic, yes, but sometimes you gotta get your hands dirty to win. She was facing a stronger fusion and so fused so that'd she'd have equal footing if not an upper hand.

5. Sugulite knew she was a fusion hence her saying she was tired of being split up. Garnet also knows she's a fusion and she's been fused for millennia as far as we know. 1. yes every now and again they do change, but on a more consistant basis, non fused gems tend to have just irises wheile fused jems tend to have both irises and pupils on a more consistant basis.

2.  As I've said, I watched the Malacite scene many times and even with the water chains, you should have still seen part of  Lapis' gem as Malacite was being pulled back into the water.

3. You're forgetting Peridot..who shares a gem placement on her forehead, as does Pearl..so It's not that much of a stretch, unless that's not a gem.

4. That's like saying that if you take two people of the same build and telling them to fight. Depending on past experiences and fighting styles, one will more than likely win against another, even if the odds seem even. Assuming that Jasper is a fusion would make a lot more sense in this aspect because she realized they were even or damn near close. So..she fused with Lapis in order to be stronger.

5. Yes, They knew they were/are Fusions, but pearl even says "you've been fused for too long, you're losing yourselves." Garnet knows she's a fusion but doesn't think of herself as two beings. She thinks of herself as one being, not of two halves of a whole. Jasper, again if we are to assume she's a fusion, might have lost her individual personalities and might have POSSIBILY forgot that she was a fusion.

Again this is all theory. 1. A minor detail like irises and pupils being characteristic of a fusion is wrong because we've seen Garnet with dots for eyes.

2. Unless of course it was covered by her hair. It was shown while they were fusing so it's still there.

3. True. I did forget that and that is the only solid proof in your theory.

4. W...what? No it wouldn't. Obivously she fused with Jasper to get stronger because she was facing a fusion.

5. She doesn't think of herself as two beings or one. She sees herself as an experience. "I am more than just the two of them."

The chances of Jasper being a fusion are astronomically low. We can't for sure say that two gems with gems in the same place would form a fusion with just one gem because we've never seen anything like that. For all we know the gems might just make space for each other. who tf knows.
