I have a question to shoot back at you - 

DOES canon Steven *only* have diamond eyes (meaning diamond-shaped pupils) when he’s pushing the limits of his gem powers? 

Or… do they just GLOW when he’s angry/upset, making them easier to see?

Let’s look at the diamonds:

Except for White, all Diamonds, including pink, typically have dark pupils and colored irises. 

White’s pupils perpetually glow, and Steven’s pupils also develop this trait when he’s being, for lack of a better word, OP. 

Most of the time, however, Steven’s pupils are black. And coincidentally… so are his irises. 

We don’t actually know what shape his pupils are. Because most of the time, they’re not glowing, and his irises only become pink when he’s in a pink-diamond state. 

WD!Steven isn’t any different. His pupils glow white when he’s using his power, but most of the time, they’re dark. 

The only difference between him and canon Steven is the fact that his irises are light enough to reveal his eye shape!
