When Opal fuses it usaully tends to deform quickly since both pearl and amythest have 2 seperate ideas on a certain matter making them loose unity. I think Sapphire and Ruby tend to last longer because they agree on similiar terms or in any since respect that those 2 have different thoughts instead of trying to make each other think in that way. Stevonnie stayed until the 2 of them wanted to show up Kevin the jerk and felt to lonely and didnt really want to stay together. So I think fusion consist of each others bond, strength, and body of mind. I also think the personallity of gems are decided on chakiras. Like Garnet has Gems on her hands- she has action(why she channels wepon with the cosmic energy). amythest has a gem in her chest which is the true feeling of her heart (thats also why she can summon weapon when she feels like it. Pearl has hers on her head which symbolizes mind (why she summons with consintration). That could show why sugilite was so unstable even though Garnet is a calm gem. Or why Opal is smart but airheaded etc. That'd explain why Peridot wasn't knowledgeable about the Crystal Gems residing on Earth, it's likely that public information exposing rebellious thoughts would probably cause civil wars on the Homeworld, and that'd lead to great instability and cause many diffusions. Probably the propaganda used there must be very high, and subjects like compassion and emotional feelings studied in the non-gem races would not exist, so that it wouldn't have any repercussion towards their system of colonizing planets and extracting their minerals and life stream (Kindergartens). Yep I think gems used to have alot of feeling but when the war started on earth they saw how feelings can change a persons motives and values in life. They probally tried to get rid of feelings and emotions because having so can cause great harm. Just like how Pearl's feelings for wanting to see home got herself and steven almost killed. They probally tried erasing every little rebel thought and only a few who survived the war knew about the crystal gems.
