Please start making forum posts instead of long comments. Thanks.

Here is your post:

I think Holly Blue Agate's faking the whole "not understanding human speech" thing.



There's plenty of evidence she's faking the whole thing, the gems who aren't familiar with Earth like Peridot and most of the Ruby Squad seem to understand what Steven's saying, especially Leggy, who's a brand new gem. She's like a baby, who, throughout her existance so far was with gems most of the time, so, she would be more used to gems speaking to her rather than humans (or in Steven's case, a half-human) but, she appears to understand Steven just fine. This is demonstrated in Back to the Moon when Steven asks her a question, she provides an answer to his question.





It was an actual and honest answer too, she simply doesn't remember, so, she says she doesn't know. At least it's something rather than something else. So, Leggy is just more proof that Holly Blue's faking it, if a brand new gem can understand a half-human then all gems can understand a human, no matter how long they've existed.

Now, for some examples of gems speaking to a full human and understand them.



Blue Diamond is able to understand Greg when he was talking to her about losing a loved one and she was suprised that he was capable of understanding her.



This Amethyst is able to understand what that Zooman was saying. She comforted him and listened to what he had to say.

So, after those examples I provided you, we can all conclude that Holly Blue's faking the whole thing.

But, why would Holly Blue pretend not to understand humans? Could be because she looks down on them and she doesn't want to listen to them. So, she comes up with a rather clever and crafty way to combat it, pretend she doesn't understand them.

It also demonstrates that she's smarter than she seems (Holly Blue's pretty smart but since she's doing this whole act, it shows she's really smart). She tricked Steven and the Crystal Gems, even though they didn't mention it and she even tricked the fans. I've seen quite a bit of posts floating around about Holly Blue not understanding human speech. Holly Blue's really smart indeed, she's good at tricking like Navy, who seemed sweet and innocent at first, we have no idea that she is actually evil until we saw Room for Ruby. Those two are so smart, they're able to trick anyone and they fall for it.

Look, I even made a post on Holly Blue faking the not understanding human speech thing!

It's interesting that Holly Blue seems to be faking it!
