Okay, so according to White, her radiance is what makes her “perfect”, right?

She’s literally glowing every time we see her.

But when Steven fuses with himself, she becomes dim next to him.

His radiance from his self-love and acceptance of his “flawed” self is more perfect than White Diamond and literally outshines her.

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.

season 1 // “change your mind”

Oh shit! The crystal gems landing inside White’s ship is a parallel to the episode in season 1 Serious Steven.

It’s also the episode where we saw our first sightings of White Diamond. Nice touch Crewniverse! God Steven has come so far.

So about Steven’s fusion...

Fusion has always been a physical and emotional representation of the relationship individuals have with each other.

For Garnet, fusion represents romantic love.

For Smoky Quartz, deep platonic love.

I could go on and on listing every fusion we’ve seen, but you get the gist. And from the very beginning of this show, what we’ve discovered and unraveled bit by bit is just how much Steven’s mother has loomed over him his whole life.

I mean, literally. She’s literally been hanging over him for years.

And for the past five seasons we’ve slowly unpacked how deeply this bothers him. At first he just worries about not living up to her legacy. Then, over time, with every misattributed “Rose Quarz” and “Pink” he receives- every empathic memory or nightmare he experiences- this blossoms into a sickening question: what if he was never anyone? Never Steven, never an individual, just… just…

Someone else. Deep, deep down…

All of these fears came to a terrifying crescendo, as White literally pried Steven’s gemstone out of him, demanded that Pink come out. Steven, fully human, fully separate from the gem he’s had his whole life… and seemingly on death’s doorstep without it.

Fully human Steven, who watches someone else begin to reform from his gem, someone else-

Like him.

His gem didn’t reform as Pink Diamond, as he always feared, nor Rose Quartz. It reformed as Steven.

A fully gem Steven.

And then moments later fully human Steven fused with fully gem Steven, two facets reuniting in a spinning, glowing splendor to create… Steven?

Which means that Steven himself is a fusion.

He’s always been a fusion, ever since Rose gave up her form to create him, to literally become half of him.

A fusion… which represents not only Rose’s love for him, but now, his love for himself.

He’s been asking himself a question for so long, a question he was terrified to hear the answer to- but none of that matters anymore, because he’s found the answer.

He is The Answer.

He’s just Steven.
