<p><span class="spoiler on">future episode info I understand why Topaz and Topaz have one page- but there seems to be little or less on the fact that they are a fusion, and they do seem to love each other, at least more than just business friends. Giving them both pages would be redundant with the stasis quo, as the two have not proven to be anything but identical as of yet.
So, Would it be appropriate to add Topaz/Topaz under "relationships" on her page? This way we can encompass the fact she is a fusion, and does prefer being a fusion, without redundancy.</span>

<p>LOL. Plot twist- Lion is the one that warps and rescues Steven and Lars. ;D </p><p>
P.S If this happens... My "Plot twists" will be 3/0 for actually happening... weird. </p>

<p>I can definitely see resemblances both aesthetically and character wise. The first seems pretty obvious- but the second lays somewhat between the lines...
Jasper and Vegeta were both hand-picked to be the strongest, and worked hard to keep that title. The thought of being anything less is a terrifying prospect, leading to insecurity in them both, and this ends up being Jasper's downfall, and Vegeta's on multiple occasions. (But he just comes back, because it's DBZ, and no one ever stays dead.)
</p><p>
I would say that Japer was inspired by Vegeta. Rebecca Sugar already has a lot of Anime tie-ins in her work, so I can definitely imagine she grew up on DBZ. But that's my stupid opinion. ;) </p>

<p>Actually, the way Lapis and Peridot would react is accurate to the series. Chances are, they (and Greg) will find out eventually. I think Greg would be the most upset.

<p>Greg would have a heart-attack XD :c </p> </div> <p>If Greg is not okay, I will be NOT OKAY! Greg is the best dad in recent Cartoon history! </p><p>
But seriously, everyone cares about Steven, because Steven cares about everyone. They're all family. Lapis and Peridot would do anything to get him back, just like Amethyst, Pearl, and Garnet. Oh, and Pumpkin.
<strike>The only one that may not, probably won't, care is Lion.</strike> </p>

<p>Crazy Lace (Agate), Biggs (Jasper), and Snowflake (Obsidian) have all already debuted in the show...
They have been seen as corruptions. Those two "Northern beast" corruptions, and that weird Snowflake monster (I think, I need to check this one out). The gems even matched. I could do a blog on this, as there is quite an amount of parallels, and too much data to sift through here. Bismuth was right when she said <i>"We're all that's left."</i>

I really wish your theory could happen... don't get me wrong. But the truth has been swept under the rug, as it is rather dark for a kid's show... </p>

</p><p>Me too. It works because they are romantically involved while Lapis and Jasper were not. Lapis was Jasper's hostage who was force to work with her as hers' and Peridot's informant under her prison sentence when Lapis returned to Homeworld.
</p><p>Obviously they were bad for each other because Lapis never wanted to be involve in the conflict between the Crystal Gems and all of Homeworld while Jasper wanted too. Though by Jasper's next appearance she drops all that and goes back to taking down the Crystal Gems. But I do, since eventually they fought when they fused and Lapis defeats her in Alone at Sea where, before the ending, she visibly started seeing Jasper as such and the reason they held each other back is because and as I started before Lapis was a hostage to Jasper and never wanted to get involve in Homeworld's conflict with the Crystal Gems.
</p><p>Thank you for those words, I really appreciate it.

<p>I <i>know</i> what Gemology is, I just have no idea how you were using it in your argument earlier. How does it represent the opposite? </p>

<p>I didn't understand the first part...? Gemology what now...? </p><p>
I do remember that episode. And I also agree with that couple being a prime example- </p><p>
BUT abusive relationships are not cut-and-dry, one size fits all. They can often look perfect from the outside. (Stronger was the word Jasper liked to use.) Lapis and Jasper were just bad for <i>each other</i>. Jasper was so insecure that she both emotionally manipulated and physically tracked down Lapis. But Lapis was the one who trapped her in the first place, because she "Liked to take everything out on her(Jasper)". So Lapis enjoyed playing the victim. It was bad for both of them. A Dependent and a Co-Dependent. It takes two to tango, as the saying goes.
And I really just can't see Jasper and Lapis as "Arch enemies", Lapis is pretty neutral and down on everything. They never even really fought, just held each other back.... </p><p>
@ Everyone else on this thread- This is a REALLY GREAT thread, honestly. Both sides giving a good pitch- with supporting reasons- whilst still respecting the other sides' opinions. </p>

Lapis's power is hyrdokineis, so I don't think it's too far off to say ferrokinesis is Peridot's power. Plus, with all their (Lapis & Peridot) similarities it makes sense.

<p>Paralleling Lapis's powers, I would guess that Era 1 Peridots had some sort of natural limb enhancements instead of a weapon- as Lapis has wings which is technically an enhancement. Same for Sapphire- one 'enhancement' one 'power'. BUT Ruby's arsenal includes a weapon- gauntlet- and a power- pyrokinesis. If she does have the ability to form a weapon, it would perhaps a more defensive one, such as armor of sorts? (Peridots are hard to poof.) Perhaps she has the latent ability "technopathy", the ability to communicate to electronics? </p>

<p>Many other countries have straight up called Connie Steven's girlfriend in promos/dubs. So, yeah, it is a thing.... but for now just let them experience growing up- together and apart. They are both like 14.

<p>I saw Malachite as powerful narrative on abusive relationships, honestly. And, nowadays more than ever (sadly), younglings (not limited to but especially young ladies) definitely need to be educated about this....

<p>I think that "magic" was a term thrown around for a younger Steven (or other unsuspecting humans for that matter) that just wouldn't understand. As Steven has gotten older, "magic" has slowly been replaced by art-forms, technology, and refined techniques- even a written language has been touched on.

<p>Are we going to overlook the fact that one is pink and one is blue? Whatever "Coma-head" is, it is in a family of gem with a pink and a blue variant. I shall go research...
///LOADING RESEARCH///
Well... Moonstone is known for revealing insights and truths, is good at soothing nightmares, and seeing into the subconscious. If a stone was going to be MY lawyer, Moonstone would be a top pick. It comes in many color variants, including Blue(insight/clairvoyance) and Peach(Soothing/subconscious). But they all have white light was their base.
This looks possible, but my problem is Peachy there has a clearly rectangular gemstone, and moonstone is NEVER cut that way. We cannot see the stone on Blue, so <i>if</i> these two are the same, I would assume they have the same cut.
So, my conclusion is a gemstone with the same intuitive, insightful, honest, and mental clarification properties as Moonstone- Selenite. It is often cut as a rectanglular "chip", and comes in all the same colors as Moonstone-
And get this! It is the crystal most often used as a crystal ball or looking glass! That monocle isn't just for aesthetics!
(P.S. Selenite comes from "Selene" meaning "moon". So, the cresent shape still fits.) </p>
