| Hands down of the two this was the best by far.So much emotion,from Peridot remembering Homeworld to Steven talking to the Cluster.It really does seem like Steven is going to be stronger then Rose ever was.
I'll post a bit more once I've gathered my thoughts and maybe rewatched it a few times,but I enjoyed it alot.I'm gad it was aired back to back with Super Watermelon Island,because waiting a week would have been unpleasant. |

| I thought this episode was great. It was great to see more emotion from that beloved dork, Peri. As a (probably permanent) expat, I could really relate to her just then - missing home. You can't help it. I think it was good for her to show that.
She's very knowledgable about gem shards and what they want. You'd think she'd be like Yellow Diamond and be all "who knows, who cares about these shards". But she's very wise on this. It's almost like Homeworld KNOWS what they are doing but just DO NOT care. Which is sick and cruel. Brilliant.
However, now we have yet MORE questions. How was Steven able to "talk" to the cluster??? And the shards want to become *whole*. That's not the same as company...? I mean that's a sweet way and better way to end and very Steven but yeah. And also how could the shards bubble each other??? So many questions!
But yes, Steven will definitely be above and beyond Rose Quartz. He already is. |

| I can't believe Steven could bubble that thing O-O it was HUUUUUGE and verrrryyyy creepy. That creepster duo storywriters had a hand in this one. I thought for sure Steven was going to poof but I guess not? He got into the cluster somehow. I think it's like the dream thing where Steven can go to other places in his sleep somehow.
whoever leaked information way back when on this was right O-O they predicted everything with spot on accuracy!! :O omg |

| Ok,now that I gathered my thoughts and watched the episode some more here are my thoughts.
My favorite part was easily the interaction between Steven and Peridot.They really do give off the vibe of being close ,and this episode adds on to the relationship started and continued through the Peridemption Arc.Its obvious that saving Steven was a big part of why Peridot was trying to stop the Cluster at this point,given her words and the like.She shares alot with Lapis in that regard.
I had a feeling that the Cluster wasn't going to be destroyed,and while I do think just bubbling it was a bit of a rush I'm not disappointed.The Cluster is possibly in the best position it could be for itself,and honestly I look forward to seeing more of it in the future.It would be neat to see if some of those shards worked towards becoming a stable form of fusion.
Steven talking to the Cluster clearly is a result of his Gem,given it was glowing and all.And its also an extension of the ability to talk to others in dreams like he did with Lapis in Chille Tid.
The Cluster shards being able to bubble themselves does lead to the idea that bubbling is something that all Gems can do,even down to the shard level.I wonder if it will ever try to contact Steven in his dreams? |

| I REALLY liked this episode. For a lot of the reasons stated already. I love how we are getting to get more of an idea of the depths of Steven's powers, and thus Rose's powers. I have to say I really like how this show reminds me of Sailor Moon in the sense that a lot of it is about redemption, forgiveness, friendships and love. Steven is a lot like Usagi in the sense that he didn't want to immediately destroy the cluster, while Peridot did, only because she wanted to now protect her friend, Steven, rather than cold nefarious reasons.
ALSO I GOT REALLY EMOTION AT THE END OF THE PREVIOUS EPISODE AND BEGINNING OF THIS ONE WHEN GARNET IS SAYING "WE LOVE YOU" LIKE I WANTED TO CRY HARD CORE. xD |
