Connie Maheswaran/Quotes

 Oh! That's kinda like my dad. He's a cop. Well... more like a private security guard. So...

 My dad works for a bunch of different beaches, so we're not in the same place long.

 My parents don't let me eat doughnuts. They have trans fats.

 Let me try. *spells out "harpoon gun" on bubble* *Onion gives a thumbs up and runs off* It just made more sense.

 It's NOT okay! You keep saying that but YOU don't know what you're doing! Now we're going to suffocate or starve at the bottom of the ocean and only my parents will notice because no one else cares about me!

 He was incredible!

 That's what happens when you hang out at the beach and don't swim and don't have friends. Y-you look at boats...

 The most exciting thing in my life is tennis practice. Forehand! Backhand! Overhead death strike!

 Yeah. I just hope it stays faithful to the book.

 I did not say that.

 My parents say I'm not allowed to buy snacks at the theater, So, we're not buying anything at the theater.

 You have a pet lion?!

 Wow, Steven. Everything in your life is so awesome and magical. The most exciting thing in my life is tennis practice.

 Is this one of those magic gem places that you've told me about?

 Man, that's really stuck on good. I guess we'll have to chop it off.

 Does that means it's worth more than a regular penny?

 Is it a magic story?!

  Connie: Only if you give me the rest of your juice.
Steven: Okay, but it's mostly backwash.
Connie: Good enough.

  Then you'll be like me, that's not so bad.

  I think-- there's just-- something wrong with my glasses. My... My eyes. I-I-I can see! I can see without my glasses!

  What am I going to tell my parents? What am I going to tell my optometrist?!

 You don't need powers to be here with me.

Ugh, this show is so good!

Oh, whatever Steven, let's just focus on getting through the evening

Steven, let's just hop on a bus and live somewhere else without telling anyone!
Steven: That's a great idea!

My parents are all about safety.

No. Stuff like hooves, bone marrow, collagen... And lots of sugar and corn syrup.

 Steven! Steven? Are you in trouble? Is something wrong? Did I do something wrong?

 Say it to my face! Say you don't wanna be friends anymore! If you can do that— If you can do that, I'll leave you alone. And I'll just go back to having no friends. But I won't believe it until you say it to my face!

  Steven, your eye! What happened to you?

  I've been worried sick all day, what do you think I'm doing here?

  Are you okay? You're the one that's been through everything. The least I could do is just listen.

  I want to, Steven. I want to be a part of your universe.

That's my theory, anyway.

Oh, of course you liked the wedding...You're Steven, you love "schmaltz".

How about half the Infinity Fair? ... No, that's still infinity.

Oh! Are you an aspiring thespian?

Looks like the postal service has been slacking off...

Your knuckles are so quiet!

You didn't bring more Sea Pals...

Dear Jamie,
You, dear camellia, expectantly await the light of my moon, yet my light is more of a scorching, wilting, dry desert heat, and as your metaphorical surgeon, it is with a heavy heart that I urge you to seek a second opinion. I return your heart to you...
Steven: Also, your hair is nice.
Hair... is... nice.
Yours, but not really, Garnet.

At least it's honest and to the point.

  Run back to your masters, tell them we're not afraid of your kind!

  I don't know what will happen in the future, but if something dangerous comes along, I don't want to be a burden, I wanna help! I want to be there for Steven, to fight by his side! The Earth is my home too, can't I help protect it?

  Deep down, I know that I'm just a human but I know that I can draw my sword and fight!

  With my short existence, I can make a difference. I can be there for him, I can be his knight.

  I'll do it for him.

No, Steven. I understand now! Your legacy, your destiny... You are everything! ...And I... I am nothing... But I can do this for you! I can give you my service!

Steven... I'm doing this for you!!

I need to be able to protect you!!

I haven't needed actual glasses for almost a year!

YES!

• spits out juice* Steven! You're 14?!

Okay... that's good. You know, to be honest, I was a little worried before, this might sound silly but, I'm really glad that I'm going to get grow up with you.

Yeah, I just want to be there for Steven. Don't worry Steven, it doesn't matter to me what age it seems like you are, I wanna hang out with you no matter what. Your dad still has his carwash and the gems have to do gem stuff so I'll watch you when they're not around. I can come see you after I'm done training with Pearl too. Doesn't that sound fun?

Oh my gosh. Ooh my gosh... Did he get even smaller? Steven's microscopic! He's reverted back to a zygote! Everyone! Steven is-

Of course it is. I like you just the way you are.

I'm thinking mad. I still feel like there's something big I want to say to him, you know? Something to make him think, like we're thinking.

Forget Gems, humans are already starting their own demise! Peak oils, Steven! How do we handle terminal decline without alternate energy sources?!

Oh, my gosh! Forget homework. Let's take it from the top!

It's funny, I spent all that time feeling bad instead of doing something. It's like I was trying not to think about it, and that just made it worse. Now that I've got a clear head, we'll do so much better as Stevonnie.

You have to! You have to be honest about how bad it feels so you can move on. That's how it was for me.

It's impossible trying to solve problems if we're just trying to copy other people. Oh, what's the point of this? We'll never be the Crystal Gems, we're just... the Crystal Temps. But we have our own way of doing things. So let's go back to that, to fix this mess we made.

Steven! It's the Gem. She looks just like my drawing. Come on! You don't have to be afraid, we'll help you. Jump down into my arms, my body will break your fall.

Connie: No! Don't you dare!
Steven: I love you.
Connie: No! Stop! (Aquamarine's Ship blasts off and disappears) Steven!

But what about our training? Stevonnie. Jam buds. I believed in us. We could have done it together.

If it helps, Kevin, I think you threw a very nice party.

I’m so excited we’re finally going to have a space adventure together! Steven and Connie in space!

Well.. Good thing I grabbed a couple of these before the Ball. Otherwise, we'd have nothing to eat. Can't escape gem prison on an empty stomach.

We can't give up! One step at a time, we'll think of something!

Okay. So, we tried the bubble, the shields, and that window. What else have we got? Uhh.. Hey! My phone. Oh wait, no reception. Not that there's anyone we could call for help anyway.

How long do you think they'll keep us locked up in here? A hundred years?
Steven: That's it!
Really!? A hundred years!?

You think you can do that? Reach all the way to Earth with your mind?

Well, what are we waiting for?? Bedtime, mister!

We didn't mean any harm! I asked Steven to dance, he wasn't trying to cause trouble!
Blue Diamond: What do you know about this, human?
You think I've never been grounded before?

FOOD!

Goodbye, Pebbles. Wish us luck.

Yellow Diamond: If we bend the rules for her, we have to bend them for EVERYONE!
Well maybe you should!

Looks like this just turned into a face off.

Steven: Then who's that?
Who cares!? Knock her out!!

My mom back on Earth used to have so many rules for me to follow. It was so overwhelming, and it made me feel miserable. After I told her how I was feeling, things got way better between us. She even let me come out to space to help Steven! If White knew how unhappy she was making you feel, maybe everything would change.
