  You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

  Oh yeah, Sardonyx too, though I see Peridot listed more often.

  
  

  It's funny, if not for the characters associated with these names I would not give a crap about birthstones.

  Sup bitches, witches, Haters, and trolls.

  I think Haven might be counting the Condesce?

  
  

  Anyways IIRC my birthstone is Pearl, i.e. making @Crystal jealous

  Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.

  I'm an Opal.

  
  

  I'm good with that.

  Whores! we want "poems that kill."
  Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
  guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
  and take their weapons leaving them dead

  There are people there who think that Greg is a terrible father figure.

  
  

  4chan has people who are wrong about things. It's in its nature as chaos incarnate

  Someone on /co/ said Lion was Pink Diamond

  
  

  Which is...interesting

  Let me tell you. About Fallen London.

  Lion could be a relatively benign corrupted gem.
  
  That's the closest explanation I can think of that makes sense from what we know so far.
• Obā-san

  2016-01-21 04:58:07

  
  

  Lion is the "corrupted" Pink Diamond

  they only have to poof corrupted gems because they are running amok

  
  

  so, i guess it would be more accurate to say that Lion is Pink Diamond whom has undergone a process similar to whatever corrupted the corrupted gems

  
  

  or something

  I do kind of hope they'll make a Lion 4 wherein we learn more about Lion someday

  Peridot's my favorite character, yes

  
  

  But I think Steven is a close second

  It occurs to me that the first intro reinforces that Steven doesn't quite fit in with the rest of the Crystal Gems, while the second has him now fit right in

  You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

  I like that too
  
  Also Connie is a passive bystander in the first intro but an active participant in the second

  If the creation of gems on Earth would have destroyed it had it kept up much longer, how does Homeworld withstand gem creation?
• Haven

  2016-01-23 01:27:56

  Let me tell you. About Fallen London.

  It would have destroyed Earth as we know it, but apparently created a very hospitable environment for gems.

  
  

  It may also be that new gems aren't created on Homeworld any more, but that remains to be seen.
