Thank you to the Steven Universe community for saying such positive things about this scene, we thought you might like to see the pencil test. These are the shots from “Change Your Mind” that I animated and that Kendra @bcakesbaxter tied down. Thank you Rebecca for letting us be a part of your beautiful show. Thanks to our Drew @poseidonsbitch for scanning it all.

This isnt my idea but someone on reddit told me to make it lol

“Steven, we can’t both exist. I’m going to become half of you. And I need you to know that every moment you love being yourself, that’s me, loving you and loving being you. Because you’re going to be something extraordinary…You’re going to be a human being.”

So a thing about the bit, with Steven getting his gem pulled out, and Gem!Steven showing up?

We see the scene from Steven’s point of view, after- and his vision is split.

As is, he sees his fleshy body with one eye-

- and the Gem!Steven forms and sees what they see from his other eye- and we can safely say Gem!Steven has the same vision.

Steven is confused and hurting- but, despite the horror of the situation, he bursts into tears, because he’s suddenly feeling desperate.

“I have to-”

“I need-”

Reaches out towards Gem!Steven, weeping, begging to be reunited- and Gem!Steven evidently feels the same, as there is no hesitation as they start walking towards Steven

I see people saying ‘They are a fusion’ but… no, not really?

They are part of a whole that has been sepparated physically, but mentaly they are still one.

Two pieces struggling to find each other, so they could form and be whole again.

Like the gem shard in the Cluster, really.

Or any gem- any shattered gem.

So I am proposing Steven just experienced what is essentially being shattered.

oh my heart!!!!

Ok this is adorable.

Peridot literally took inspiration from all the other crystal gems for her new form (Garnet for the visor, pearl for the top and amethyst for the bottom)

And her little yellow boots

Wait I have one more thing I really want to unpack:

THIS. This is the end of the war for Pearl and Garnet. They’ve spent five thousand years since the war fighting corrupted gems and seeing old friends as monsters and having to poof and bubble them and know there was no way to save them, no matter what Rose thought.

Amethyst didn’t fight in the war. Bismuth never saw corruption. But Pearl and Garnet saw everything through from the very beginning, and now they’ve finally seen the end of the war. They aren’t just friends in this moment, they’re soldiers who finally get to go home (so to speak) and relax and be happy.

The war is finally over. They won.
