Is she ever going to get a weapon?
>>
I don't really care, but if she does, she better asks "Is that a weapon?"
>>
>>83980278
Probably.
From the looks of it she isn't staying in the barn but Lapis is (thankfully)

So hopefully she will get a weapon and build some more limb enhancers though i doubt her weapon would be a physical one like the other CGs and rather be something else like Lapis having controll of water

Maybe she's a techno-path, she seem to grasp earth tech rather easy where as pearl was shown to have little understanding of it and troubled to build the thing to stop the robonoids causing a powerout

Then what in god's name can she bring to a fusion? Peridots aren't warriors, and Pearls aren't either and she been show to SHRINK fusions of their potential
>compare Sugilite (garnet X small quartz Amethsyt) with Rainbow Quartz (Pearl X huge quartz Rose)
>compare Opal (smallish) with Sardonyx (big)
>Alexandrite (4 gems including Pearl) with the huge Malachite (two gems)

No gem power, no summon weapon, would cap the size of a fusion, doesn't have any real battle experience compared to the others, is naturally weak for a gem (more like a human)... Don't give me any "intellect" BS either, how far will expert kindergarten knowledge and drill-building skills take you in war, she was pretty shitty even when she had her limb enhancers

If she has no gem weapon then she is 100% useless in fusion. It would be unique to have a gem that never fuses

Are you a fucking retard? She has amazing technical and tactical thinking. Instantaneous pattern recognition. She builds shit out of a box of scraps in a barn!

Imagine Peridot bringing that sort of shit into a fusion with someone like, say, Lapis. Lapis, who makes giant hands and powerful replicas to fight with. You throw Peridot's thought processes and methodology in there and that fusion is going to be rearranging water molecules into buildable materials to construct armies of fucking Gem Gundams and railguns and shit.

She'd be the Kyle Rayner of fusions. A water-based Green Lantern.

Nigga what?
She's clearly staying at the Barn with Lapis. The point is that doesn't mean they're not gonna be in the show anymore.

The barn is just an excuse to give them a place to stay without having to address the mysteries of the Temple yet.
There's a Warp Pad just over the hill from the Barn, and Lapis can apparently fly at magic carpet speeds.

Among other things.
The main one is the question of if they can add more admins to the Temple. Sure, they likely could make rooms for Lapis/Peridot, but it's unknown if they could actually give them keys, per say.

I'm thinking seriously old society+dependence on technology for too long made them complacent and lazy. They used tech instead of their own skills and eventually forgot they even had powers at all.
>>
>>83993293

They know OF them. Peridot knew what shapeshifting was and the specifics of its energy consumption. Keep in mind that Homeworld's society is incredibly rigidly structured. Every individual gem is created to fill a specific purpose, and are trained to do that thing and that thing only.

If an ability doesn't pertain to their job, nobody bothers to teach them because they don't need to know it.

Peridot has (had) limb enhancers to fill all her utility, mobility, and defensive needs. Being able to shapeshift or produce a weapon doesn't really add anything new and/or useful to her skillset, so it was never necessary to teach her how to do those things.

>>
>>83993542
It might be something like what >83993479 said. They have a single predetermined function and moving away from that function is an extreme taboo. Fusing because it's euphoric is not conductive of a machine like society where everything has its place.

Do it because it feels good might be the rebellion credo and what attracted everyone to ruby's side.

That and no one including Ruby seemed to know that a cross gem fusion was even possible.

Pearl has shown the ability to control small amounts of sand and clouds (sworn to the sword).
Pretty sure that's not something a Pearl would normally know how to do, let alone many of the gems we've seen.

I'd say it seems to be just like you're saying: all gems are capable of crazy powers, but they are never taught them.
That said, it's probably not nearly as strong as the Diamonds, which seem to inherently have more power going by their sheer size.

That's just for special things though like controlling shit.
Weapon summoning, shapeshifting, hammerspace, etc. all seem to be a "every gem can do it equally" deal, just that most don't practice each of them.

They have been somewhat dancing around the subject now, but they kind of hint that the gems are magic based. Or at least magic powered.

Kinda.
It seems that way from stuff like how the Quartz are big, yet the diamonds are giants, and Peridot's remarks about feeling small/big in Too Far.

The one exception so far is Lapis, having a crazy power yet being smaller than Pearl. Then again, she's clearly physically weak and without water she's kinda fucked, while a Quartz should be good to go whenever.

>>83993896
Oh, certainly. Despite faggots going on about it being super science, their powers are very clearly meant to be more "magic" in nature.

Jasper has probably thousands of years more experience, and even if she was born at the start of the war, still thousands of years of legit Homeworld missions, that intense war, actual soldier training

That's bullshit and you know it. Lowly Pearls store items within the hammerspace of their gem.

But the noble Peridot has a volume of hair so thick and vibrant that they can actually suspend up to 20 lbs of equipment within their luxurious locks.

What are you talking about? So far, every Quartz has been a warrior type and every Pearl has been a fuckslave. There isn't really a large enough sample size of other gem types to get a good reading on anyone else, unless you mean the discrepancy of Ruby being a corundum soldier and Sapphire being a corundum prophet -but we haven't seen any other Sapphires so we don't know if her future vision is a rare trait among her kind or not.
>>
>>83994932
I was talking about corundums.

>>83994925
it's not hard to grasp, but it completely ruins the ability to speculate about those things.

I can't guess the weapon of any character who doesn't have one confirmed yet because for all we know they don't have one, or they do have one but it's a power that we might not have even seen yet.
>>
>>83994932
>but we haven't seen any other Sapphires so we don't know if her future vision is a rare trait among her kind or not.

The weird thing is she probably shouldn't be able to store anything. She actually has short hair When she regenerates, you can see her head itself is diamond-shaped.

>>
>>83996217
No anon. When gems reform they first take on an anatomy doll shape before they develop any features like hair, a face, or skin. Peridot is the only gem to have regenerated with a skull in the shape of her hair.

It's entirely possible she's just squishy. Gems have weird body structures. Amethyst and Sugilite are highly elastic (amethyst became inflated without shapeshifting and sugilite can coil her arms like a stretch armstrong), Alexandrite and Sardonyx can rotate every joint 360º, and Pearl's nose is actually sharp (in the comics at least)

I sincerely doubt she has a abnormally squishy weirdass triangle head/skull. The possibility of it having only been merely an aesthetic choice is valid.

Maybe it has to do with her being a new kind of gem (Garnet and co. in warp tour didn't know, and garnet later referred to her as a modern gem), or because it was her first regeneration. Also the proto-clusters formation had the different gem bodies also including hair.

YD's hair is also a stiff quality like her's don't tell me that's her skull too
>>
>>83996906
peridot isn't a new kind of gem. Peridots didn't just start existing within the past 5750 years

it's pretty clear the crystal gems aren't experts on gem types. Pearl had no idea what a Lapis Lazuli is or how dangerous it could possibly be.

Peridot meanwhile knew everything about every gem she met except rose quartz, who is probably unique anyway
>>
>>83997045
>peridot isn't a new kind of gem
You don't know that for sure. These don't follow the rules/history of peridots you'd find in a jewelry store

Also, Lapis could be exceptional in her sheer power. Pearl specifically remarked surprise at the gem inside the mirror's power, and even though Peridot knew what a Lapis was she was taken aback at the display of Lapis taking down the HW vessel
>>
>>83997045
Also there's no way Jasper and Peridot would've let lapis be free on the beach with them in The Return of they know how powerful she was

And maybe not even have taken her back to the water planet in the first place!
>>
>>83997214
I would argue with you about lapis being exceptional, but now that I remember that two gem main characters canonically have defects it's not impossible that there can be exception examples as well.

Incidentally, I wonder if Peridot is a dwarf gem like Amethyst. Her limb enhancers do seem like assistive technology and she is extraordinarily powerless, but at the same time she had no idea Amethyst might get offended by being called defective

As for lapis, it's implied homeworld doesn't have a lot of water due to the planetary-scale strip-mining

Pretty sure one of the silhouette Gems in Lapis's flashback at the Galaxy Warp was a Peridot
>>
>>83997442
The triangle is much smaller in proportion to Peridot's, Peridot's is wider than her shoulders. And the sole thing suggesting that that silhouette is a peridot is the triangle.

And say it is a peridot, it still could be a "new gem" compared to an Amethyst/Pearl/etc. Again these don't follow jewelry store peridot rules/history
>>83997368
If peridot is overcooked or abnormal I'm some way, you must wonder why she didn't say so. It would make a lot of sense in Too Far, plus peridot said she was defective for other reasons anyway
>>
>>83997514
true. she's probably not defective, but it still strikes me as really weird that she uses limb enhancers because that she has no powers. Isn't that the way she's supposed to be?

Of course, it's entirely possible she got the enhancers just for the earth mission because she couldn't be sure if the local wildlife was a threat
>>
>>83997442
If only one of these assholes recognized Lapis' gem. A lot of these gems were in BD's court in The Answer, which had at least a few Lazulis.

Maybe they recognized the gem but didn't like her so they kept quiet. The one silhouette who looked most like Lapis in The Answer did look almost outcast-like off to the side
>>
>>83997442
I remember going through an analyzing everyone in that image when the episode first aired. I even posted a 1000+ hours in MS paint image explaining everything, but no longer have it.

There are several potential Peridots in there, although the one near the front is the most likely. There's also multiple gems that have appeared in flashback episodes or Cheeseburger backpack's holograms, which makes me think that they're not filler designs but will actually be used.

The most interesting ones to me are the three-spiked one at the front that we haven't seen before, and the gem with the flowing hair at the back that vaguely resembles Centipeetle's.
>>
>>83997593
>limb emhacers just for earth
Possible. But the power gap between her and practically any other gem is so wide, and these things can fall off (Cry for Help her door fell off I think) and get lost (all of them drop loose after poofing)

But consider this. If shes a "new gem" it reflects a change in how HW want the gems to be exactly, makimg their power optional to better control them. And making it cost less...kindergarten resources..to make a smaller, less powerful gem and just hook them up with equipment when need be.

It's difficult to read too much into it but yeah, they've mixed enough actual Gem designs (Lapis, Peridot, big Jasper type Quartzes, that thing that socked Lapis that's pretty clearly the bubbled gem in Lion) into the silhouettes to make it pretty likely that some of those designs will show up again as actual gems. I'm at least on board with some of the other mystery Gems in Blue Diamond's court with tear-drop shaped gems being other Lapises

I don't buy this for a minute. At the moment there's nothing to directly correlate the two outside of the fact that bismuth has multiple colors and that gem's hair did too.

Also if you look at the silhouettes, you can spy what looks like a Ruby in the lower-left corner, possibly Yellow Pearl near the middle-right, and even what could be an Amethyst behind her. Not to mention the multiple possible Peridots.

It's way too specific a design compared to the other silhouettes for it not to be significant I think, obviously I could be wrong about this but if it's not 'Bismuth' it's something else new and will definitely be important in the future (my based-on-mainly-nothing theory is that it's some sort of early attempt by Rose at a human-Gem hybrid considering its build/the fact that it basically has Steven's face and that this is probably going to be a factor in Lapis's attachment to Steven - why do people assume her flashback wasn't full of omissions again?)

Gems can drastically change their hair shape from regeneration to regeneration too

Oh yeah, I'm not saying that it won't be important, but it's still a pretty big leap to assume that it's bismuth at the moment. The shape of the gem is also hard definitive, from what we've seen bismuth isn't really shaped like that.

>he shape of the gem is also hard definitive, from what we've seen bismuth isn't really shaped like that.

Yeah, but I think it's close enough for the difference to be written off as being due to simplification/abstraction considering it's an simplified/abstracted design overall, it's clearly not a normal cut gem shape so unless they're going to introduce an entirely new gem with an irregular but geometric shape (how many could there be?) I think it's our best bet

They've already hinted about Peridot being curious about new clothing and wanting to have a star on her outfit since she's a Crystal Gem now.

>>83993542
>Doesn't explain why they so strongly detest cross gem fusion.
There are several likely reasons for the fusion taboo.

One reason is that fusion is a battle tactic. Gems normally fuse to fight strong enemies, so seeing one will make a Gem think "there's a fight going on here" and possibly "these Gems are threatening me", even if it's someone like Garnet just walking around being a fusion.

Another is that it's seen as stepping outside of your assigned role. Gems are supposed to be very specific thing, and heterofusion could be seen as pretending to literally be someone you're not, defying the rules laid out by the Diamond Authority.

A less-discussed aspect, which is similar to but not the same as the previous one, is that a fusion Gem is strange and unfamiliar. The average Gem is pretty much defined by their gem type; they think of their caste as literally being who they are. If they're a part of Homeworld society, they'd be familar with other Gem castes as well; the average Peridot on the street would have a detailed knowledge of what a Ruby or Sapphire looks and acts like, even if they didn't know that one specifically, they would be familiar with their castes in general, so they'd see each other as something like close acquaintances. But show her something like Garnet, and she wouldn't know what the hell she was looking at; she'd see some weird person who looked a lot like a Ruby but clearly wasn't not one, and also looked like a Sapphire but clearly wasn't one of those either. And was also freaking huge. It would look like some weird pseudo-Gem thing that crawled right out of the Uncanny Valley.

>>84004001
It comes from the differences. Gems of a kind are kept similar to each other, to the point where they don't even notice each other while fused. Different gems, though, experience full force the act of sharing your mind and body with someone 'other'

That's likely just the effect of garnet being a bigger gem. If you notice, sardonyx's and sugilite's gauntlets look different from garnet's. And it's not like pearl's spear or amethyst's whip had any influence on their appearance. I believe with every fusion, the gauntlets become stronger.
