>Doesn’t cut out the people who hurt him from his life
Why does Sugar condone abuse?
Doesn’t cut out the people who hurt him from his life
First: Because it adds drama.
Second: she's got a vibrater hooked up to her twitter feed that stimulates her clitoris every time she gets a hate message.
Because just like being shot, You will bleed
more important than that, why is this on a kids show?
well he runs away at the end doesnt he
Still says he’ll talk to them
he just says that because he knows if he said anything else they would go crazy and cut him up
Dumb episode
Subversion
This isn't condoning abuse, it would be abuse if he stayed with them.
What he did wasn't portrayed in a positive light.
Don't ask questions
It is because he keeps them in his life
What was keeping Steven from getting some cash and fucking off to Empire City for a week or two? It's not like the gems had to stay together all the time, Rose got to have pet lions and nobody even noticed anything.
What's worse is that he has been forced to hang out with Connie more then everyone else now, the one who emotionally abused him the most.
How is he forced?
>It is because he keeps them in his life
Should he kill them?
He just moved away from them but he can't forget all the good they did, and their abuse wans't as horrible as WD's abuse.
It’s not like his actions never caused them harm either, and they are the ones busy acting as Heracles and banishing the primeval chaos in the form of unkillable monsters and unnatural disasters.
That’s just his birthright, and what his version of Earth is like. The problem is he shoved his feelings down to expedite the hug/make up stage. He never really had a talk about the times he felt hurt with the person who did it. Something that only Peridot really remembered.
Although for the record Lapis kind of did the same thing. Bismuth too. It’s easy for Garnet, Amethyst, and Peridot to separate Pink from Steven in their minds because of how distinct Steven is from Rose/a Diamond to them and are aware of how gentle he is, plus Pearl was never afraid of Pink either and is more than a little bit suicidal regardless.
But even if they don’t feel Steven has to answer for Pink’s actions, Bismuth and Lapis should both have some concerns about how much more fucking powerful he really is and how he can cheatcode their free will away if he ever wants to. Again, a chat and voicing of concerns is in order.
To remind them actions have consequences.
Her PSAs are plot points instead of filler between commercials though.
Omg its connie hater 2.0
Like an evil sidekick or imitation villain
Most of the time they are off doing their own things.
They warp all over the world and don’t seem to bother asking where anyone went when they warp back most of the time, especially Garnet who is noted as always going on solo missions, and despite being largely sleepless beings they spend half their time in their rooms doing who knows what. We know Pearl checked up on Steven throughout every night and practiced fencing, and Amethyst “organizes” her “collections”, but we never even saw Garnet’s room. Or Ruby/Sapphire’s rooms. Or any Fusion room aside from Sardonyx’s.
He shouldn’t have either them or WD in his life
Because you don't just leave your family behind forever if you feel like you should be getting out in the world as a teen?
He's in pain because he goes stir-crazy but also feels bound to his duties at home, not because he is being abused.
He couldn't choose
because they didnt do it intentionally, they still love him. they were just violently retarded.
He doesn’t want a safe mundane life given he’s going to be a space pirate Fusion on weekends.
Him lining for an ordinary life was supposed to be unhealthy too. Paralleled by Jasper wanting to have a Diamond master to just tell her what to do so she wouldn’t have to grow to take responsibility for her own happiness or actually make choices.
>That time Amethyst violently lashed out at Steven because she was feeling self-loathing and self-pity over how much of a literal deformed retard she actually is
>Pearl making a short attempt at pulling Steven gem out of his body when he was a baby
>Pearl almost getting Steven killed while trying to ditch earth for Homeworld
>Pearl sperging out over PD's sword and nearly letting Steven fall to his death
>Garnet being almost emotionally distant at times because she's too busy fucking herself
The gems kinda suck
Doesn’t have to be mundane, they just shouldn’t be in his life anymore, those Gems specifically
If we look at all the times he was in danger, eliminate the ones that only happened because of his own actions, random monster attacks that happen worldwide, or being Rose’s son, we’re left with one season each for the B team aside from Bismuth and one single time each from the A team.
We can also disregard the times that what happened saved the world, since the alternative was just him dying.
>Pearl trying to go to space regardless of his biological needs in a rocket that was unfinished
>Amethyst attacking him to prove she was the worst Crystal Gem
>Ruby and Sapphire freaking him out on Peridot’s ship
If you listen to his cactus complaints it’s just roommate squabbles. The kind Amethyst and Pearl are always having.
I’m not talking about just the danger, there were other big issues and they generally shouldn’t be in his life because of those
Like?
Emotional negligence and providing an overall sense of worthlessness in his life
I mean Sucrose forced that scenario to go forward. She was wanking Connie hard at the end while shitting on everyone else when it made zero sense.
Because adult cartoons are too chickenshit to actually deal with serious subject matter outside of Talking Horse show.
They gave him the opposite of worthlessness. A lot of his problems begin when he overheard them talking about how much they need him to be ready to fight because of the increasing amount of danger to Earth. Which they can’t be faulted for since they were trying to boost his confidence at the time and he was eavesdropping.
As for negligence, he had a better upbringing than most of us. Plus they’re more his aunts while Amethyst is his literal and figurative big half-sister. Not to mention distancing yourself from people who were unintentionally neglectful as a kid is the polar opposite of what you’re supposed to do.
i didn't watch suf, why is garnet fucking huge in this pic
No, they purposefully assigned his value to being a Gem and viewed him as less a person and more a replacement for his mother than anything else to the point it took 14 years for them to celebrate his birthday with him
I dont watch this shit, what did they do to him?
>i didn't watch suf, why is garnet fucking huge in this pic
They just fucked up the character size relations again. Why wouldn't you expect this?
steven is the godzilla ripoff in the pic because reasons. Garnet had Yellow diamond use her form altering powers to make her giant so she could hug him better.
exactly. they love him, but they suck at parenting.
also, what the fuck did pearl expecting to happen when she showed up to HW in that shit spaceship she made?
They still shouldn’t be in his life
It wasn’t really shitting on them. It was just Connie applying the exact same thing that worked with her to Steven since they’d literally shared a headspace enough that she recognized his feelings.
