[quote=@pyroman] [@HaltingBlooper][hider=hidey hidey need to think of more hider names]So, for the appearance and general aesthetic, I like to think of it like this. The Crewniverse loves their symbols and metaphors, and that applies to everything about the fusion. The fusion is an amalgam of whoever is participating in it, but also their own person entirely. While I was put off by the extra half arm in the beginning, it made me realize the differences between Amethyst and Steven. Their fusion, appearance wise, is almost perfect. The only abnormality is the extra arm, and I think that's because, while Steven and Amethyst are so similar in so many ways, how they handle their problems can sometimes be different, their actions differ from one another in some cases. Garnet, the same thing can be said. Nearly perfect, but sapphire and Ruby don't always see eye to eye. Opal? Calm, kind, and a straightforward thinker, she knows what she has to do, but also knows what other options can be taken to achieve the same goal, the same can be said for Sandonyx, but added with the fact that Ganret and Pearl don't always have the same goals. Fusions seem to be a combination of X and Y, but also taking the newly found Z and adding that to X and Y as well.[/hider] [/quote] [hider=hiderman] The Crewniverse loves their metaphors? I wasn't aware! /end sarcasm Is it strange that I think that Smokey Quartz is easily the second most stable fusion that we've seen? (First being Garnet, obviously) Like, they didn't even have to do the setup. My guess is that they didn't need to synchronize, just because they already were, in a way. Also, Steven and Amethyst just go together really well. (I don't ship them, if that's what you're thinking) [/hider]
