Talk:Steven Universe (character)/@comment-26082492-20160117070513

Steven is a copy of Greg. Rose regenerated into Steven as the ultimate expression of Love and sacrifice to make up for her and her homeworld's sins. Unlike other gems, Steven is as mortal as any human. He's been very lucky so far about not getting killed on missions. He's better with his shield, but he's not invulnerable. Steven can only fuse with other humans unlike the gems, who can only do it with other gems. So far, only Steven and Connie have fused and that's probably the only person he'd be willing to do it with. It's just too intimate.
