While you make a good point - if Jasper is a fusion, I don't think pupils are the clue. Also, Garnet has been drawn without irises.



I mean, just by looking back at the emotional

scenes throughout the show. The  appearance and/or disappearance of pupils and irises could be based on the emotion of the character during that moment. (I don't really believe this, I'm just proving a point).

Anyway, Jasper irises appear when she's a

mped up (which may be all the time). Garnets' irises appear when she's being protective. Pearl's pupils appear when she's... bein' extra Pearly. Amethyst is drawn with p upils when she's surprised/in an excited state.

Yeah. So my point is that even though it's subtle, character  traits like eyes  will vary from  episode to episode. If Jasper is a fusion, there's going to be a clue that makes it kind  of  obvious. Probably more  along the lines of Lion being connected to Rose. "That's why he's pink!"
