For a while now, I've thought about this. The Crystal Gems and other things have kept him from dying and other stuff like that. It is shown he can age very quickly depending on how he feels about his age. He has also almost freezed to death, but he was also saved, by Garnet. But Steven is in fact still a gem, so like all gems, their bodies are illusions, so his would be half illusion, half real then? A lot of people say no but please provide evidence?
