Bubbling Bismuth kind of bothers me. It's one thing to hold corrupted gems until you can find a cure, or hold an enemy who is intent on killing the CG's, but Bismuth is basically being imprisoned for having a different opinion on how the war for survival should be fought. I hope Steven finds a way to reason with her.

Also, now I totally want to make a real Bismuth gem.

Looks like it's rather easy.

Warning: bismuth is slightly radioactive. Do not hold it close to your person for more than ~1,000,000,000,000,000,000 years at a time.

Holy shit I actually feel bad for Jasper

What scares me... is I have a feeling we weren't.

Though what I am glad about is they didn't cheat in Amethyst's favor... like most shows would do.

Weren't supposed to? No, it's pretty clear that sympathy is the intended feeling there, or at least empathy.

I noticed that when Steven/Amethyst de-fused, Steven's body was whole while only Amethyst turned to light. Whereas with Stevonnie, both Steven and Connie turn to light. Not sure what to make of this.

I've noticed that I've pretty much put Steven Universe in my "Highest possible criticism" box only because it is one of the few pieces of fiction that is honestly good enough.

It is one of the few shows where I dread the typical ways out of a dilemma presented... Yet Steven Universe more often then not avoids it and goes down the better option.

I think I am scarred from all those bad shows I watched.

That and it requires a disconnect between what the characters think and what is going on. Such as Jasper's inability to find someone to fuse with.

"Nobody I fuse with ever wants to stay" seems pretty obviously a pitiful thing to say... and there's no disconnect between what she's thinking and what's actually happening.

I mean more the Sea Buddies episode.

It was the WEIRDEST bit of role reversal I ever seen...

Where the abuser is the sympathetic party over the abused... O_o

The abused being treated as the antagonist... for wanting back in the relationship... relationship they want back in because they been abused for so long they can't live without it.

So they have an odd... case of being unsympathetic to Jasper even in the oddest situations. I think due to some perception that she deserves mistreatment o-o.

Is that a discreet way of saying 'Bump!'?

Eyeball-licking fetish

...I honestly would never have expected Steven Universe to go there.

...it was kinda hot.

@SU

The Kindergarten Kid gave me Road Runner vibes.

[MrWiggles]

It was 100 percent a willie coyote cartoon. And they also did an initial d episode.
