Smoky Quartz

""What a BEA-YOU-TIFUL day!""

Smoky Quartz is the fusion of Steven and Amethyst. They debuted in "Earthlings".

Personality
As a fusion, Smoky Quartz adopts Steven's and Amethyst's personalities. In this case, Smoky Quartz has a somewhat cocky, carefree, and proud attitude. They also have a humorous and relaxed side to their personality with a tendency to make jokes, even in the heat of battle. They gave a sort of confidence to Amethyst, who had become demotivated after being poofed by Jasper.

They are extremely confident in battle. Because of their cooperators' trust in one another, they are moderately stable. However, they can unfuse from distress/intense emotion, as shown when they witness Jasper starting to become corrupted.

Appearance
Smoky Quartz has three arms (one right arm and two left arms), a dark mauve complexion, bushy eyebrows, and peach freckles on their cheeks and shoulders. Their hair is a short version of Amethyst's, however, the colour closely resembles Steven's. Their hair covers their left eye. They are slightly taller than Jasper and have a large, wide build which stems from both Steven and Amethyst. Their left arm splits into two arms at the elbow. They have plump lips, a small nose, and a round face. Smoky wears two crop-top shirts, one similar to Amethyst's, and one that resembles Steven's.

Their outfit is similar to Stevonnie's, combining the outfits of their cooperators. In their case, Smoky Quartz has a light mauve version of Amethyst's tank top under an off-shoulder tank top that resembles Steven's shirt, along with Steven's pants, and Amethyst's boots and leggings. The gemstones of their cooperators are located on their chest and navel.

Abilities
Smoky Quartz possesses standard Gem abilities and traits, including shapeshifting, fusion, and the ability to summon a weapon.

Skillset

 * Yo-yo Proficiency: Smoky Quartz can transform Steven's shield and Amethyst's whip into a multicolored yo-yo. They can use this to swing from and to different platforms as well as to attack opponents, and wrap it around objects. Smoky Quartz can use up to three yo-yos at once (one for each arm).
 * Yo-yo Spin: Smoky Quartz can spin themselves rapidly, causing their yo-yo to swing very quickly, which can be used as an offensive maneuver.
 * Yo-yo Fans: Smoky Quartz is capable of spinning their yo-yo(s) with great speed, creating strong enough winds to push back a heavy-built Gem like Jasper. With all three, even the Unknown Quartz Fusion (Jasper while fused with a corrupted Quartz) was lifted into the air, forming a mini-sand tornado in the process.
 * Speed of Descent Regulation (possibly): Smoky Quartz was shown as able to land softly from a great height. This power comes from Steven/Rose Quartz.

Peridot
""Forget your name; you've got a fight to win!"" There has been limited interaction between Peridot and Smoky Quartz, but it is shown that Peridot is very supportive in their fight, attempting to use her ferrokinesis to dislodge a piece of scrap metal in order to help them defeat Jasper. She poofs Jasper by impaling her with the piece of scrap metal after Smoky Quartz unfuses upon witnessing Jasper's state of corruption.

Jasper
""Is fusion the only trick you Crystal Gems know?!""

Upon first seeing Smoky, Jasper commented that fusion was the only tactic the Crystal Gems had. After realizing she could not win against them, she exclaimed that she would not lose against yet another fusion. Ironically, this encited her to fuse with a Corrupted Gem, which ultimately leads to her own corruption.

Trivia

 * Their voice actress, Natasha Lyonne, was revealed in the credits roll of "Restaurant Wars".
 * Smoky Quartz is Steven's first fusion with a Gem.
 * It's still unknown how Smoky Quartz would look if Rose and Amethyst fuse, since Smoky Quartz seen in "Earthlings" is 25% human.
 * Smoky Quartz is the first fusion seen on the show that has three arms, and the first to have an odd number of arms.
 * Smoky Quartz "wears" a tank top version of Steven's shirt and denim shorts, very similar to Stevonnie.
 * Before Smoky Quartz was formed, a smoke mushroom cloud appeared, similar to Sugilite's Dragon and Sardonyx's Dragonflies.
 * This could be because the actual gemstone Smoky Quartz contains radioactive elements which cause the coloration.


 * When Steven and Amethyst defuse, they phase apart. Amethyst converts to light like a pure gem and Steven retains his organic form and simply splits away from Amethyst. Their voices also overlap.


 * Smoky Quartz's weapon is the first weapon not to be medieval themed, as it is a yo-yo.
 * When Smoky Quartz's combined Steven and Amethyst's weapons to form their yo-yo, they summoned Amethyst's original whip set, not Bismuth's upgraded flail variation.
 * This implies Amethyst might be able to alternate between whips.
 * Smoky Quartz is the fourth fusion including Amethyst, and the second fusion including Steven.
