[Also, in answer to KAPompom's question about Flame, she does talk as herself. The reason why most of her thoughts are Sard and Argon talking to each other is because in order for Flame to act, or even think, Sard and Argon must agree. I have them talk to each other mainly because I can't wrap my head around how two different characters reach the same solution without any form of back and forth, whether they're in a fusion or not.] If a fusion talks with the individual gem voices all the time that usually means they're not a good match. Like Malachite only talks with Jasper's and Lapis' voice. She talks as herself. She can also think as herself. Since she is the fusion of Argon and Sard she also thinks as them, too. When Flame thinks of something in her mind [Flame Aura: ], it's because Argon and Sard both know, and agree on, one thing. Flame enters to stop or postpone arguements that are either distracting them from physical situations and bigger problems, or might cause them to defuse. When Flame speaks out loud [Flame Aura: ], it's becuase Argon and Sard have reached an agreement. A fusion can't stop its main components from arguing It might, if both components know and are aware of how bad their arguing is. You can have a fight with someone and know it's the wrong thing to do, and they probably know it's wrong, as well. If both of your thoughts combined into a single entity that's existence depended on you getting along, wouldn't your thoughts mainly be along the lines of "please stop this" and "we can't fight each other lke this"? Espeially if you know you're weak, or at least think you are, like Argon and Sard do? Flame Aura is not only stronger than them, but grants their wishes, in a sense. Freedom is a thing they both value, and they each paid rather high prices for their individual freedoms, Sard's being her arm and her friends, and Argon's being her weapon, and in turn her only means to defend her freedom. In fusion Argon has the weapon she could never have and therefore can protect her freedom. Sard not only has her arm back, but she isn't alone like when she left Homeworld. If they both knew that their fusion was important, and if neither of them wanted to defuse, and if they were aware of their arguing, then their fusion might be able to intervene and stop the fight.
