So, when gems fuse, they dance. Why? Probably to have their space rock equivalent to a heartbeat/brainwave on the same frequency. Steven with Connie and Greg? Probably to have their hearts beat on the same level, both examples reminding me of how when humans sing together in harmony, our heartbeats eventually become the same. So... singing and dancing tend to go hand in hand... What if there was a type of gem fusion never done before- where rather than the two gems physically fusing their forms to create a singular, separate being, they instead fused purely on a mental level, where their bodies are still entirely separate, but they think as one? Garnet, Opal, Sardonyx, Sugilite ect. are all their own separate people with personalities unique from the gems who make them up. These are PHYSICAL fusions. However, let's say that Lapis and Peridot (Lapidot stan here) are doing their meep morp thing and are performing music. They start to sing, and as they keep singing together, they realize that somehow, they can each see out of each other's eyes and are basically moving and thinking as a unit. They stop singing and it lasts for a sec, but in their shock, harmony is lost and their minds separate. This is a MENTAL fusion. Please tell me that I don't sound like a madwoman.

I was playing on garageband and I saw this

The colours are a little messed up from the camera, but this is Tanzanite, the fusion of Marina Sapphire and Champagne Pearl. Name idea from @-bubblegumcookie** aka willow, tysm! Tanzanite is based on an orchestra conductor and inspired by Sardonyx and Opal. With Sapphire's smarts and Pearl's snarks, Tanzanite is pretty sassy and won't hesitate to correct anyone, so be careful! Originally I had forgotten to mention that Pearls' weapon is a double Kusarigama, so Tanzanites' weapon is a Bo Lang Gu, or "pellet drum" made from Sapphires' ice with the Kusaris as the pellets. She will often create rhymes about the situation and will keep the beat with her drum as she recites them. I used the Prismacolor Technique fireworks set of coloured pencils!

The Diamonds' official instrument is a mix of Harmonette and Strings.

Spinel's instrument is a Mellotron (a synthesizer) that plays Tremolo Strings.

So all of the Steven universe light games were delisted in December? bruh. I wanted those. please tell me that there's still a way to get them and it isn't too late bc I am very sad

Nah

Don't worry he got this

Sapphire's loyal Pearl. The two of them came from a colony owned by Yellow Diamond, but were made for Pink's court. A thousand years or so after being moved to Homeworld to be in a more useful position, they began to hear news of a strange colony owned by their Diamond. Most gems were apprehensive towards the odd looking Sapphire or straight up disrespectful towards her Pearl, and the both of them were fed up it and their boring, pointless (in their minds) jobs so Sapphire came up with an idea: travel the cosmos and visit places they've never seen, do something useful for someone new, see what a planet is like before being colonized, and first and foremost, see what the buzz on Earth is about.

Working on a small SU x Splatoon thing with Off the Hook and the Squid Sisters as gems! Will give further story later today when I have time to post Champagne Pearl. Whatcha think?

Do you think there could be other types of gems who serve the same/similar purpose of a Pearl? If so, what types? On other colonies?
