Hi. This is the third time I have to ask you to utilize the forums instead of making long comments. After this, I will simply be deleting comments without going through the trouble of giving them back to you. Since some people have point out 'made yesterday' on the Ruby Squad's concept artwork was just a figure of speech.



And as I thought about, judging by Leggy's lack of knowledge and infant-like aspects (she only wanted to be with Eyeball in Hit the Diamond, almost like how little babies only want to be with their mothers and that's it, making that same confused face babies make when they don't know what's going on, not being strong enough yet in Hit the Diamond then getting stronger in Back to the Moon, having a similar reaction a baby would in the same situation when she was Lapis' water bubble in Back to the Moon, and mimicing Eyeball, Doc, and Navy's facial expressions and mannerisms, don't get me wrong she's the only Ruby Squad member and gem who does that and babies mimic your facial expressions when you make faces at them. Even though Leggy can walk and talk and apparently have an opinion on things, unlike a baby, she's still like a baby in some ways. She acts like a small child with some infant-like aspects) I'm starting to think Leggy is still a brand new gem and basically a baby gem, but, is hardly a year old, also hardly a week old, now, I think Leggy could be a couple days old or a few days old or several days old going on a week.

I mean, Eyeball, who apparently doesn't like physical contact, doesn't seem to mind Leggy holding onto her and didn't even push her away. And I think Eyeball's her caregiver and is like Leggy's mother (although Eyeball doesn't act motherly towards Leggy, Leggy seems to feel safe and secure with her and was frequently seen hanging around her, hiding behind her, holding onto her, and sitting and standing next to her in Hit the Diamond, and seemed to choose her over the others. It's like how little babies only want to be with their mothers and that's it and they feel safe and secure with them, similar to how Leggy was like with Eyeball in Hit the Diamond. So, this leads me to believe that Eyeball is Leggy's caregiver and is like her mother), so, they have got to have some bonding time prior to Hit the Diamond, making Leggy possibly a couple days old or a few days old or several days old going on a week, that would be enough for them to bond enough to make Eyeball accustomed that (like "Oh, Ruby's holding onto me again, it's no big deal, she just feels safe with me"). So, this tells us some things. Also, the facial expressions and mannerisms Leggy mimics, like her trademark facial expression she makes was later on to be revealed to be Eyeball and Doc's distressed faces (Eyeball made that face when her gem was cracked and Doc made a two cheek variation in Adventures in Light Distortion when she goes off the Roaming Eye's windshield), so, Leggy has got to be around to witness something where she saw Eyeball making that same face causing her to mimic it, if she were one day old, she wouldn't be making that face unless she witnessed something horrible happening during her existence. So, she was around to see it.

In short, I think Leggy's approximently a couple days old or a few days old or several days old going on a week.

With Leggy getting stronger....

Striking difference here....



Here she is in Hit the Diamond, which, I theorize, is possibly a few days old here and is struggling to hold up her teammates and is strong enough yet.



Now, here she is in Back to the Moon, and is possibly a few weeks old here and is holding up her teammates with no probelm.

Talk about improvement! She's getting stronger! And she'll keep getting stronger!

Man, that means it will only make her temper tantrums dangerous, even though her and Navy seem pretty chill, we never really have seen Leggy truly angry and Navy was angry in Room for Ruby but was so good at hiding her emotions, we couldn't really tell (I think she was secretly angry in Room for Ruby, and who says that you have to look angry when you are angry, some people are just really good at hiding their emotions and I think Navy's like that). But, if Navy was angry in Room for Ruby then maybe there will come a time when we see Leggy angry in the future. But, unlike the other Rubies, she's a brand new gem, she may not be able to control her emotions as the others just like how a grumpy or angry baby would just cry and a small child would just scream, yell, or even throw a temper tantrum. So, since Leggy's a brand new gem and is basically a baby gem and acts like a small child with some infant-like aspects, when she gets angry, she might as well just throw a temper tantrum as she wouldn't know to control her emotions as well as the others.

But, with her superhuman strength coming in, her temper tantrums would be dangerous, she would scream, cry, yell, hit, kick, bite, and throw trucks, cars, and other really heavy objects at people. She wouldn't be thinking because she'll be really angry, and it's hard to think clearly when you're angry and she may not know and understand that she's severely injuring people or even possibly killing them with the heavy impact of weight (I have a theory, that brand new and young gems, like small children, don't understand big, complicated things and the outcome of situations, so, they don't understand poofing, shattering, and what happens if they do something, and it's hard for older, fully matured gems to explain it to them as they will never understand, as that part of their minds hasn't developed yet).

As Leggy seems to rarely get angry, her temper tantrums will probably be rare when she does throw one, they're pretty dangerous but they can be dealt with by putting Leggy in a water bubble, holding her really tight (sometimes pressure helps with stress), or simply put her in timeout in a place that doesn't have anything heavy for her to throw. Then, she'll calm down.
