Oh here’s the link if you wanna tweet freaky things to each other 😏…… jk….. or am I…..

I just peeped it and I didn't know you were married
@@aarynclarida5608 he's had his wife on the channel before
@Jellybot248 stop it.
@@af3897 I'm new to the channel that's why! I came at the start of steven universe to hear other perspectives for the 20th time😅
tweet WHAT now!?
Please try not to spoil it for him everyone. If the show will eventually say it then don’t say it first. Let him go in blindly because all the reveals from this episode and before, he already got spoiled on because someone told him.
exactly! i hated how everyone was overexplaining sapphire and ruby's roles on homeworld in the keystone motel comments cuz the show gets to it eventually
@@af3897 Like Literally
If you get to understand that to the point of explaining it Then he'll reach the same conclusion by himself
agreed which is personally why If I do comment it’s information that’s already been showed or mentioned in past episodes just not as easy to spot the first time watching I hate spoilers 😅
yeah it makes me so sad he can’t be fully blind when watching this! the show is best watched with all the mystery of how the gems work and stuff. like yeah he asks questions in the video but pretty sure they’re just rhetorical and him thinking aloud.
@@nocctea exactly
"How do you feel?" "Big."
Since Peridot got poofed, she's been feeling helpless, useless, and "small". She's struggling to keep up her confidence and her worth and using her arrogance to do so. Her beliefs and her confident mask are crumbling around her. Knowing that she's actually able to do something like be a kind and decent person? That's "big".
Really good description. Great writing fidelity. 👍
Its also the first time since being 'captured' that shes felt some sprt of success. And it was for something that PERSONALLY matters to her. Everything before was part of her job. For the first time, shes been acknowledged and thanked for something that she did for not just for herself or homeworld. She finally did something to help her own and anothers self worth and not because it was her "purpose" or "orders". Shes her own gem.
The lyrics in Do it For Him actually hint at Pearls' purpose, "deep down you know you weren't built for fighting"
😧
@@Scootx l love the double meaning here! Connie was also not built for fighting she had to build muscles and calluses. Pearl had to do the same probably
Pearl being a servant that broke out of her role to reinvent herself, garnet being a fusion, and amethyst emerging late are why during “the return” jasper calls pearl “some lost defective pearl” garnet a “shameless display” and amethyst a “puny over cooked runt”
Also “Quartz” is a gemstone term used to help classify gems in real life. amethyst, rose, and jasper are all in the Quartz “family” which is why In the show they there treated the same and share similar looks tall,broad,strong, long hair etc
oh yeah, they do all have long hair huh
Ohhh! And that's why they share the same ranks!
Pearl said she LEARNED to be a knight, but it isn't something expected of her when she was loyal to Homeworld.
Even though Pearl took an L in the first episode, her punching Peridot is one of the biggest W's in the whole series.
Also I love the ending of Too Far. It's like one of those "morals for little kids" at the end but coming from Peridot, her saying apologizing made her feel big is such a nice moment.
Yeah I love when she said “big” it has many meanings to it that fit her perfect in that situation.
Crystals are often made of the same stuff but may look different depending on the impurities like iron, manganese, copper and sometimes radiation. For example rose quartz, amethyst, citrine and smoky quartz are all types of quartzes.
Quartz is a mineral - a bunch of molecules, in this case silicone dioxide (silica, yes like what you see in packets to absorb moisture). When you think of crystals, like hippie crystals, you probably are picturing a type of quartz. Quartz is also found in sand, and if you think of the glassy (not metallic shiny - that's mica) parts of granite.
Silica on its own is transparent (think crystal balls) for clear quartz, so it is impurities or trace elements that bestow color. Before election-microscopes or the scientific method, people named rocks, crystals and gems based on appearance - so we have amethyst, jasper, agate, onyx, chrysoprase, and chalcedony as different names even though they are all types of quartz chemically. And in another comment I made for another episode - sapphire and ruby are types of corundum.
(This isn't a spoiler because it was actually said early on in the show) jasper explained exactly how they view fusions in the season 1 finale "fusion is just a cheap tactic to make weak gems stronger." But there's a little more to their disliking fusions than that. But I won't spoil it for you
Honestly? Huge SU fan, but I never made the connection that Peridot's initial interest in gaining Amethyst's approval likely was deeply rooted in her subservience to authority. Been really enjoying your connections of the (Peri)dots in your reactions. Both the insightful ones and the ones that miss their mark--they both show that you're genuinely invested. Keep up the great reactions!
Glad you're calling out all the people posting spoilers in the chat, really hate people who spoil shows for other people like that.
And not a spoiler, but a quartz is simply a type of mineral. To use an animal analogy, it would be like saying they are all canines. There's lots of breeds of dog, but they are all closely related. In much the same way there are several gems and rocks that are all types of quartz.
Quartzes are a family of gems, encompassing Agates, Amethysts, Jaspers, and many others. They are military gems.
A fun fact is that there are also a lot of quartz gems that have "quartz" in their name. Rose quartz is a real gemstone in real life (pretty much all of the gems in the show are gemstones in real life). Similarly, rainbow quartz, the fusion of pearl and rose from that earlier episode, is a real quartz gem in real life
Yeah, Pearl said back in Sworn to the Sword that the concept of a "knight" is something she learned on Earth.
People who are prejudiced tend to assume that someone was "meant" to be a certain way because of what they are. The interesting thing about the Gems is that they're literally designed and intended to be a certain way, designed to soldiers or servants for example.
And even in a species where people have literal designed purposes, they can still rebel and act against their design. The world building is so interesting in this show.
As to why amethyst looks different in that episode;
Rebecca Sugar, the shows creator, gave the storyboard team a lot of freedom to express bits of their own art styles in the show, or TLDR story boarders were allowed to go “off model” when drawing the characters as long as you could tell which character it was.
A lot of times you can tell which member of the “Crewniverse” drew the boards that were sent to animation in Korea based on the art style :-)
I never knew that was intentional. That’s really cool!
Perfect timing as I was just hungry for Steven universe reactions
Seriously
@@ratbaby1225 yes
Dude Same
These past weeks i'm wandering around TH-cam looking for reactions lmao
@@sanji_joestar yeah lol same
No fr i wake up on Mon, Wed, and Fridays excited just for these SU reactions
OMG THE NEXT EPISODE COMING FRIDAY IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE'S IN THE SHOW IM SO EXCITED
Quartz is just a type of rock crystal where the crystals that make it up are very small and irregular, making it look “smooth” when light falls on it. The most common type of quartz is that milky white stone you find on playgrounds sometimes, but there are also a lot of quartz gemstones, like amethyst, jasper, and rose quartz.
I'm so glad you got to this episode because I've been biting my tongue since s2e06.
What's remarkable about Pearl is that NOTHING about her was designed to fight. And it's such a great emblem of the promise of Earth to the Crystal Gems; being free to chose one's path, rather than doing what you are told.
I recommend going back to the 'Do it for Him' song and listen to it with this in mind.
Quartz is a classification of a bunch of types of crystals that include Amethysts uwu
To be clear, in real life, quartz is a general category of gemstone, with a whole bunch of subcategories. Four of the Gems you've met - Rose Quartz, Rainbow Quartz, Amethyst, and Jasper - are all types of quartz. There's others, too, like onyx, citrine, chalcedony, or smoky quartz, but all of them are crystalline silicon dioxide.
Without getting spoilery:
Remember the big Homeworld Gem warrior who attacked Rose Quartz in Pearl's flashback back in "Sworn to the Sword"? That's what an Amethyst is supposed to be, like Rose Quartz and Jasper.
Gem society is almost literally stratified.
Amethyst's hair: This was a trademark style of boarder Lauren Zuke. Amethyst's standard model hair is smoothly dome-like on top curling into locks further down, but Zuke liked to have "horns" sticking out near the top, with Amethyst's hair having more body near the top than the standard model.
Pearl acting as a servant is probably inspired by the Rose Bride from the show called "Revolutionary Girl Utena", actually alot of Steven Universe is inspired by Utena, including Pearl's fencing
Really glad he got to these episodes 'cause now we can recommend him to look back on things like the Do It For Her song lyrics ("Deep down, you know you weren't built for fighting") & what Pearl specifically told Garnet in the episode where they finally made up ("I'm just a pearl, I need someone to tell me what to do.")
One thing I ‘ll always love about Pearl is that shes the very first pearl to be liberated from homeworld and just the first pearl to fight, speak her mind, choose her own purpose. I love her. She fought for her independence
Pretty sure from now on the ending visuals will be based on where the group is at that moment, so if they're at the barn you will see the barn, if they're at home you will see their home etc.
My 2 favs episodes about Amethyst so far
This one and the kindergarten
''I didn't ask to be made'' is such a powerful and painful line but the voice acting💔
When she said ''Defective?"
I'm so excited for Friday!!! The two episodes together are a great package
A quartz is a type of gem
A quartz is a type of gem. They include amethysts, rose Quartz and others. It's based on their composition
Yea, pearls are basically made to be like accessories :')
All quartzes are soldiers.
In the real life and in the show, gems like amethyst, rose and jasper are quartzes.
2:21 Exactly. This show does such a great job of slowly and patiently drip feeding you information about the world. I don't know why people are so eager to explain things early.
The hang up that Homeworld gems have about fusions like Garnet is that they are "unnatural". There are gems that are made to fuse but only with the same type of gem - Garnet being a fusion of 2 different gems is seen as an abomination to Homeworld gems.
I can’t believe they spoiled it, but it is something alluded go in any pearl centered episode that she feel hopeless when there’s no one to give her some type of mission, pearls are basically private maids/butlers
Pearl actually said that she learned about the concept of knighthood on Earth.
She wasn't designed to be one so much as she models herself after the idea of being a knight.
All Pearls, ours included, are designed to be servants/assistants.
She decided for herself that she wanted to immulate knighthood.
Knights are an Earthling, a human, concept.
Fusions are only used for combat in Gem culture, so to Peridot Garnet being fused all the time is like walking around with a big weapon always ready to go.
yeah, gems are kinda like computer programs but in the physical plane. they ain't like kids where u have one just for fun, they're made to do something specific, like a computer program
Yeah (spoilers kinda)
Hasn’t it been stated that they’re technically AI?
Everyone who hasn't seen the series; ignore this string of replies
What do you mean? Like, they're non-biological forms of life, if that's what you mean
@@jethiliusavalar6449 no, like I think Rebecca said something about them being AI. Watch the video by Toon Ruins where they ask the questions of what the gems actually are. She references an interview that said that I’m pretty sure.
this will answer all your questions my guy plus no spoilers
Fusions are only used for wars and weapons in gemculture so Garnet just normally walking around to peridot is like holding a big ass Cannon for no reason when there's no fighting going around and amethyst was supposed to look like Jasper a high ranked soldier but since she was premature she's shorter and weaker but she still a quartz technically so that's why peridot thinks high of her
I’ve already texted this to another comment but I’m just gonna say it again: The way he says he doesn’t like spoilers but y’all hear this , think “I’m going to actively go to the comment section, hint at a bunch of things and explain the ENTIRE plot of a subject instead of allowing him to think and figure things out himself” and actively go type it out in the comments. like come on man….this is why he doesn’t read the comment section anymore, please just let him have his own experience and think and find out about things on his own.
@@mossy1756 literally
"Welcome to Earth." thank god for garnet xD
Pearl: THATS RIGHT! I AM A (Punch) PEARL!
Me: 😱YEAH!!! PEARL!!!
I didn’t get to see the episode I thought I was gonna see lol next video
It’s getting lore heavy! Love it.
On Homeworld, fusion only happens between gems of the same type, and only for combat purposes. It's not that Peridot doesn't like fusion, she's just not used to seeing it for any other purpose than that and she doesn't understand why, which in turn makes her uncomfortable because before she came to Earth she thought she understood everything about gems. In her mind that's what she was made for and learning that she didn't know as much as she thought made her feel like a failure, like she wasn't fulfilling her "purpose."
The "big" comment at the end is also important because earlier in the episode after she hurt Amethyst's feelings, she said the way Amethyst was being so cold towards her made her feel "smaller," which is ironic because the reason Amethyst was upset is because Peridot told her she was basically a runt and now that's how she felt. She started to understand how what she said could have been hurtful, so when she was able to apologize and be forgiven she started to feel the opposite of how she felt before, so..."big."
some of the changes you’ve mentioned (amathysts hair changing, i think something about pearls face one episode..?) is from diffrent animators ans styles/models being used! there’s some references of all the different animators details floating around
Jasper is also a quartz. Amethysts are supposed to be Jasper's size
kinda a spoiler dude
Dont spoil it for him bro
Technically not a spoiler. Peridot did say in this episode that Amethyst is supposed to be twice her current size, which is right about where Jasper stands
@@eljhin1 How is it a spoiler 😂 Nobody in the series will ever say that . Like if he had a little more knowledge about minerals he'd already know that jaspers and amethyst are both quartz
Hurts someones felings makes you fell small
Be humble to admit your mistakes and apoligize makes you fell Big.
Btw im Brazilian and its been a pleasure watch su with you.
The whole fusion thing is basically gems from homeworld believe only one type of gem can fuse together not two different kinds of gems.
sorry youve been spoiled so much scoots... and sorry if *ive* ever spoiled something... love ur reactions and im glad ur liking the show :)
I’m LOVING the show, but I’m also happy you’re enjoying it with me
NOT A spoiler The reason Peridot calls amethyst a quartz is because in real life amethyst is classified as a type of quartz because of it chemical composition
Amethyst, Ametrine, Tiger's Eye, Tourmaline, Chalcedony, Citrine, Rainbow Quartz, Smoky Quartz, and Rose Quartz all of those are a type of quartz
Amenthysts, Jaspers, are all tipes of Quartz irl, like Rose QUARTZ. in other words amethyst should look more like this two.
Funny since Peridot shouldn't know what a gigapascal is, that's human notation
amethysts hair looks different because there are a few different animators that worked on the show! amethysts hair looking like that is one of them, theres one that always does the far away shots with the tiny chibi looking versions of the characters, i know someone has both of ames eyes visible sometimes... etc. i cant remember the breakdown of all the different styles each animator has? but i love how amethysts hair looks here
As a person with autism, Peridots social awkwardness and her inability to voice her apology directly meant a lot to me.
rewatching the whole series along with you :-)
Quartz are types of gems
Jaspers, Rose Quartz, Amethyst, Topaz, Citrine, Onyx etc…
An Amethyst is literally just a purple quartz lol, the same way Rose Quartz is a type of colored quartz. That's why Peridot is calling her a quartz
Pearls in the HomeWorld are technically like new telephones they are property they’re new technology that’s why they’re so good with building things they’re so good at operating electrical stuff that’s why she can fix Greg’s car and everything else she’s good at electrical things and then Ayo technical stuff
quartz are a category of rocks/gems irl.
Amazing Reaction Scoot!!!!!!! ^^ I swear your the best!!!!!!! ^^ 😊❤️👍
This is a general information about gems IRL so IDK if it counts as a spoiler or not but amythists rose quartz and jaspers are all type of quartz gems am not gonna say anything else
A Pascal is a unit of pressure named after scientist and mathematician Blaise Pascal.
what they meant with the "whos a gem stuff" is amythist is the only pure type of gem compared to the other two, a quartz is a type of natural crystal, others include rose and jasper. However a pearl is not a ground based gem, a pearl comes from an oyster. (btw all that stuff was comparing it to real life, now time for a bit more lore based things) the reason garnet isnt considered the 'leader' is cos shes a fusion, youll find out why homeworld dislikes fusions like her on stevens birthday
The episode when you notice Jesse Zuke making characters' hair... different... cuter...
A quartz is a class of gem. Like rose quartz or amethyst
I should apologize for being one of the parties that was commenting a lot of information before Scoot could react to later plot points. I’ll refrain from commenting anything factual about the show going forward in these videos, and start commenting only on events in previous episodes if they come back to the forefront later on. Again, my apologies 🥲
(None of this is a spoiler)
"Quartz" is, in real life, a large class of Gemstones made from Silicone and Oxygen. Pure Gems with that structure are colorless and transparent. So in order to get their colors, small impurities in the crystal lattice exist. For instance, for Amethysts the impurity is Iron. For Rose Quartzes it's Titanium. Different atoms in different states give a large variety of colors.
Crystal size also matters. Amethysts are large crystals. But there also are microcrystaline Quartzes such as Jaspers, where the individual crystals are microscopic.
There are hundreds of types of Quartz if not thousands. It's quite a diverse set of Gems.
Other big groups of Gemstones are Feldspars or Garnets or Sapphires (in real life, rubies are just red variants of sapphires. Other color variations exist)
IRL Pearls also aren't technically Gemstones as they are made in clams.
AFAIK Feldspars are the most abundant type of rock on Earth, with Quartzes in second place.
This is the best part of the show
Quartz is just like a subsection of gem, kind of.
Amethysts and Rose Quartz-es are quartz types for example, while a Pearl is not a Quartz.
Don’t worry, Amethyst is still Amethyst, she’s not some new gem or we have her “gem type” wrong
next ep is gonna be sooo good 🤗🤗
A quartz is a crystalline mineral composed of silica there are variety of quartz Jaspers, Agates, Tiger's eye, Citrines, Topazes, Rose quartzes and Amethysts in the show quartzes are made to be foot soldiers and warriors you see all the characters are based on real rocks I know you don't like spoilers we're just telling you about the gems in real life I known mineralogy it's my subject just to remind you, they're coming.
pearl didnt say her function was to be a knight but that she was rose quartz,s knight
Love the stuff scoot
Love you
I'm not gonna spoil anything for you with this, but I really can't wait for you to get to the next set of episodes. My favorite episode from the first few seasons is coming up.
I just don't get why people feverishly spoil things, aside from them being children whose inhibition section of the brain has not yet fully formed... 😑
Peridot didn’t know she’s a pearl for a diamond which is stronger and And they has a high authority unlike other pearls
To be honest most pearls are servants they are maids housekeepers sleeves if you will that is why they’re always on a diamond or a quartz hip they are the right hand man but they’re only there to look pretty
Just to clarify (even though you probably already figured it out) Peridot isn't necessarily against fusion. The Gems' home planet itself isn't necessarily against fusion. They're against _cross-gem fusion_ (fusion between 2 or more different types of gems). Also they see no point in being fused all the time and only use fusion for combat
pascal is pressure per square inch btw.
12:32 well, Jasper did call her a runt in The Return
I feel like pearls being servents could possibly be a metaphor for either sexism or racism
You should make a reaction to the Pilot episode! The difference in artstyle is insane, i think you’d really enjoy it.
You have a Squidward painting in that room?
Technically there’s a new song, but it’s just a different version of love like you
More backstory lets go
Yessir! The next Ep is WILD
When I first seen this episode I wasn't expecting to get a racism allegory.
I can’t wait for season 3
The answer to your inquiry about Homeworld's views on fusion will be answered in a much later episode, so now's not the time to know exactly why Peridot is uncomfortable around Garnet.
As for your question about what a quartz is, a quartz isn't one specific gemstone, it's a "category" of gem. A good way of looking at it is that a quartz is a soldier in some military. But what type of soldier? Infantry? Artillery? Special Ops? These would be what you specify for specific types of Quartz. Amethyst is just one type of quartz out of many.
so amethyst is supposed to be a soldier, pearl is a servant, garnet (sapphire and ruby) ruby is a guard for people like sapphire who is a messenger or confidant for the diamonds because she can tell the future.
A quartz in real life is just a mineral, so amethyst is a quartz, Stevens mom Rose is a quartz and so is jasper
You should react to the sound track for Pyre. It’s a pretty unknown game by Super Giant Games, but the soundtracks is Really Good! If you do react to it listen to “In The Flame” and “The Vagrant Song”
Basically Amethyst was supposed to look like Jasper.
Amethyst were supposed to be as big as Jasper. But, due to circumstances, she is stubby squat and small.
This isn’t a spoiler but a quartz is a type of real life gem, jaspers rose quartz and amethyst are ones you’ve already seen in the show, peridot referred to amethyst as a quartz as in her being a soldier as like jasper amethyst was supposed to be a soldier, also amethyst is supposed to look more like jasper
Irl, Amethyst is just purple quartz. So yeah, Amethyst is a quartz.
Fusing means you were too weak to defeat an enemy alone
You're probably already past it by now but one of the next few episodes will explain the fusion thing
Garnet is a fusion yes but rubies are like paradise and amethyst well paradox or mostly used for tech amethyst is like muscle so is Ruby Sapphire is royalty person sapphire and ruby makes garnet they’re stronger and better and they can do both combat and strategy because Safire is the aristocrat of the gyms the hierarchy and Steven is a quartz which is also muscle but he’s half human so he’s a little weak
Ima watch this video after a hour since my pizza didnt come yet yknow
But what kind???
@@Scootx Pepperoni
Just ate half of it while watching your great video man
ima save u a slice for later
They think fusion is tremendously disrespectful they think it’s gross especially if your fusing with different gyms so technically it’s a race thing at least that’s what it seems like to me and since amethyst was born with a defect that counts as a disability that’s why she’s not as big Stephen is a mixed hybrid of rock and human pearl is not a gym at all she’s a I don’t know where the Pearl is because it’s a part of a clan so a piece of shell that’s really what it is a decorative shelf
If you want some real gem insight, look up the actual gems that the characters are. A lot of their character traits , personalities, weapons, ect were based around their actual gem.
