The most famous blue diamond, the Hope Diamond, is from India.
Definitely not white
…there are people who read her as white?
Due to her clothing, people are comparing her to vigrin mary mary (who would be middle eastern btw, not white but was whitewashed during the renaissance as a lot of religious figures were)

Lol the love of my life is ace get on my level, you pleb
But… isn’t Garnet literally a relationship? I mean, Steven said it, is was even in the song Stronger than You. I think that fusion is touching on way more complicated concepts than human sexuality.
Garnet as a person is a ace and feels no attraction other than platonic for anyone. Ruby and sapphire are hardcore lesbians but garnet is her own person. She is not two people. That was one of the most important thing about fusions. If the people fusing have a deep relationship, the fusion is not just an amalgamation between the two. That’s why malachite is still jasper and lapis whereas garnet is garnet.
Garnet as a person is ace. Ruby and sapphire as individuals are lesbian.
Lol I tried slowing down Peridot’s rant in the latest SU episode because one of the crew members said you could hear something interesting and of course you can hear Peridot talking about the TV show she was watching but I noticed there was a voice sped up twice the speed of Peridot’s in the audio so I slowed it down more and tried to isolate it. You can make out “we are about to launch the first major…” and “a product of…”
I heard “we are about to launch the first (…) since 1977″ I think this may have something to do with the Voyager space probe, or something else with NASA.

I’d just like to pause and appreciate this scene and the message that it sends to the people watching it. At every stage of this awkward fusion dance, Peridot is reserved but willing, and Garnet is respectful of her reluctance.
Fusion has been repeatedly shown to be a very intimate experience in which all participating parties must be comfortable and trusting with each other. The entire Week of Sardonyx was based around this concept.
For Peridot, the Crystal Gems’ uses of fusion is entirely foreign and discomforting. When Garnet suggests that the two of them fuse in an attempt to help her understand, Peridot’s immediate jerk reaction is to reject the offer.
Garnet’s response: “I get it — you’re not ready, that’s fair.”
Peridot decides to try anyway, but clearly neither knows how to dance nor is she comfortable doing it. As soon as she starts saying “No, no no,” Garnet lets go and stops.
Peridot says shortly, “I can’t do it,” to which Garnet replies, “That’s fine! Peridot, I’m proud of you [for trying].”
THIS IS SUCH A GREAT AND IMPORTANT MESSAGE about respecting your partner and “no” meaning “no”. Cartoon Network and the Crewniverse know well and good that they’ve snagged an older audience with this show and they’ve stuffed it full of life lessons like this that kids and adults alike can learn from.
I just wanted to talk about this because as excited as I was to see a new fusion, I think this outcome was much better in the end. Peridot and the group have a long way to go before she can really fit in with them, and it’s better to take it slowly.
Mad props to Garnet and mad props to the Crewniverse in handling this scene.
