Verliebe ich mich in dich oder nur in die Idee von wahrer Liebe?

Auf dem Weg zu mir selbst

Oh, no, that’s not at all what I meant!

Powers are nifty, but they aren’t really important to the gems as characters, with a few exceptions. Stevonnie not showing off any abilities other than what Steven and Connie bring to the table doesn’t matter to me; what matters to me is that they’re just...Steven and Connie.

Garnet has unique traits inherent to her that are not part of Ruby or Sapphire. So does Sardonyx, so does Sugilite, so does Malachite. As far as we can tell, so does Opal. These gems are their own characters with their own wants, needs, and desires that largely but not entirely line up with their component personalities. When I say multiplicative, that is what I mean. Garnet wants things and interacts with the world in ways that are not Ruby+Sapphire, but are the unique perspective and personality of their union. It’s like if a married couple were having an argument and the marriage itself chimed in to give its opinion.

Meanwhile, we haven’t seen anything of the sort from Stevonnie. Not only are they simply Connie’s wants, needs, and desires added to Steven’s, but more than any other fusion except Malachite we see their inner dialogue on the surface. Stevonnie, as an independent entity, barely exists. THAT is what I meant and what I want the show to address.
