I LOVE that Smokey Quartz is so confident and cheeky. We know these are traits that Steven and Amethyst both often have, but we haven’t seen them like that as much recently because this latest arc has dealt a lot with their insecurities and with both of them comparing themselves to other people. We’ve seen them bond even more over those insecurities and doubts and work to reassure each other, and then this was just such a beautiful culminating moment of all of that. Smokey Quartz is here to be themself and be great, and they know it.
Starfire, watch as I magically put these gloves on.
Starfire, observe how masterfully I managed to wear a tux with a cape under it and nobody could tell.
Starfire, note how I was able to wear this extremely high collar underneath this lower-collared dress shirt without having it peek out in the slightest.
