thanks for enjoying this joke, everyone
…you’ll do it for her.
Oh. Was I not supposed to break your hearts? Yeah sorry, I didn’t get the memo.
But yeah, count on Pearl to always give me inspiration for some angst pics~ Sworn to the Sword was great, as per usual with SU, but I’m sad that Pearl’s getting a lot of shit from some people for her behavior again. :( Same with Rose, but to way less of an extent, since people are just automatically assuming she never actually told Pearl to stop getting herself killed for her sake.
The way Pearl & Steven argued & the way she burst out at him, calling him Rose…I feel like she might’ve been taken back to a time when she & Rose were having that same discussion. Like, before the war, I think. Rose might’ve just learned to accept that Pearl would always risk her life to protect her, no matter what she said, which would probably take us to that moment on the strawberry fields (<-clever, writers~) they had in the Rose’s Scabbard ep.
“It takes some getting used to.”
Steven Universe - Cheeseburger Backpack & Sworn to the Sword
Their first times warping.
“You just think about the life you’ll have together after the war, and you do it for her. That’s how you know you can win!”
Very long post under the cut, but I wanted to pick apart Connie’s change in attitude throughout Sworn to the Sword. She starts out so independent and enthusiastic, and Pearl manages to mold her into believing it’s the right thing to throw her life away for Steven. I wanted to analyze how exactly Pearl managed to make that monumental change happen.
“I want to be there for Steven to fight by his side!”
From the start, it’s a partnership between these two. It’s about taking on the world together, and protecting each other.
“My Liege.” “Ms. Knight.”
These are two 11 year olds having fun. They’re not taking Pearl’s idea of knighthood seriously, because they are friends and partners. The idea of Steven being a “liege” or Connie being his “knight” is ridiculous to both of them.
“Cool! Hologram Pearl!”
This is the first element of miscommunication. Steven knows Holo!Pearl has been trouble in the past, but he’s hesitant about being over-protective or ruining Connie’s fun. So he stays silent.
