Okay but this chart is missing the best possible ship:

Semi-corrupted Centipeetle and Semi-corrupted Jasper.

Monster girlfriends!

And when they fuse they'll form this majestic creature:

Yeah, I think basically it would be like this:

Primary crystal gems: garnet amethyst, and pearl, and steven

Barnyard gems: peridot and lapis

Island gems: jasper and the rubies

and once corruption is curable, corrupted gems would go to the base they were captured in

honestly, if they can turn jasper, all former pink diamond gems could be swayed

From what I understand fans of the show bombard her with questions on all her social media, and she didn't feel the need to answer and respond to every tweet. Some people got angry with her for that and she got frustrated that everyone was using her as a surrogate for talking directly to the show. Somewhere along the lines people started arguing about Jasper and shipping, and it may have been ironic at first before going improbably more stupid.

Unless everyone was a ninja that removed like every tweet to her about that sort of stuff on twitter like seconds after she deactivated, it was more from just having to answer questions all the time rather than whatever overly dramatic reason people around her painted. (I'm going by what colleagues and close folk told about around the time she decided to deactivate and what was going around her mentions). Not every time a big-name creator decides to stop engage the viewership of her audience has to be Perfect Blue guys.

The single act that endeared me to Peridot was how in spite of continuing to be comically tactless and alien towards everything social or emotional, it's somehow Lapis's very complex baggage that she managed to wrap her head around and be properly sensitive and respectful towards.

I also thought it was cool that when Jasper was talking poo poo in Earthlings, Peridot didn't even hesitate for a second and wonder if she was right about anything.

Well if we're going to be silly and post shipping preferences might as well post mine;

Steven/Connie
Garnet
Pearl/Jasper(possibly with some of the Ruby Squad as well)
Amethyst/Peridot/Lapis(and maybe the Ruby Squad member that clearly crushes on Lapis)
Ronaldo/Jane
Lars/Sadie
Cool Kids OT3
Greg/Barbara(I think it'd be cute, and honestly it'd do Greg some good if he started dating again)
Jamie/Kevin(an artist I like ships them and her art makes me ship them too cause it's cute and hilarious)


And yes I'm aware this makes me shipper trash

Since we're revealing our inner fangarbage secrets, Beta really sold me on Lapis and Peridot as a couple. They're just adorable together and Peridot is so concerned about Lapis's feelings despite being a socially inept little dorkus. :kimchi:

I had the joke idea of Blue Diamond and Yellow Diamond being redeemed and living at the Pizza and Fry places, where Blue Diamond develops a crush on Ronaldo.

But then I had the much better idea of them living with Lars and Sadie and giving them advice on their relationship.

I'm just hoping that if there's ever a Steven-Amethyst-Peridot fusion that they forgo the traditional Gem names and just have them call themselves the Shorty Squad. :3:

Do not ship an abusive relationship. I will skull-gently caress you.

I am an extremely moral shipper

I understand your desire to ship the big buff cheeto puff, but you know how I jested about pearl not wanting any of jasper? I'm pretty sure that is for real WRT Lapis. I'm pretty sure Peridot would forget her stature and leap to protect lapis from jasper if she appear before her. all lapis ships must deal with peridot before they can reach the goal and reel it in!

I'll ship what I want you're not my mom!!!

I gotta admit, I was reading about the whole thing on a different site where they were having arguments about what was happening. I'm not a very thorough journalist.

Speaking of the Shorty Squad, would Ruby and Sapphire count as members? Or are they disqualified because they spend almost all their time as Garnet?

Did anyone ever talk about how it was likely Bismuth that poofed Lapis Lazuli back in the war? I never saw it in the last thread. Either way I just found it out watching through old episodes.

In Same Old World, Lapis gives Steven a history lesson of her life, and she shows that a bulky, rainbow haired, square gem poofed her back in the war. Of course we recently were introduced to Bismuth who perfectly matches the character shown in the flashback. I hope this becomes a part of the story down the line and Bismuth and Lazuli meet again.

Now that Jasper is incapacitated, how long before the heroes become aware of another imminent threat? It can be assumed that Yellow Diamond is going to come to retrieve the cluster before too long, but nobody really seems sufficiently concerned about this to mention it on screen.

I'm holding out hope that they find out something about Homeworld's next move in Future Boy Zoltron, which seems to include Sapphire having some kind of important vision of the future
