Does anyone besides me think Amethyst is a sort of a "franken-gem"? She's not from Gem home world but was "grown" in Gem Kindergarden. All G Gems are tall perfect specimens save Amethyst. She's short, heavy, has a cleft lip and a googly eye. She likes to eat and sleep but isn't really sure why. (Maybe she has to!) She is more easily damaged and takes longer to heal. She also has low self esteem and likes to buck authority. Based on this, the murals in the temple and the Kindergarden I believe the Gems were using human beings as raw material to creat human gem hybrids, probably for soldiers, laborers and other menial tasks. Like the Flaskoid Robots Peridot used (and subsequently destroyed!). This was what pushed Rose over the edge and started the war. Have a nice weekend. Oz
