This Might Be A Bit Of A Stretch, But I Love The Idea All The Same.

This might be a bit of a stretch, but I love the idea all the same.

Its Time To Go Full Ronaldo.
Its Time To Go Full Ronaldo.

It’s time to go Full Ronaldo.

This section of the Pyramid Temple’s mural is not a Diamond. It’s Peridot .

Now I know what some may think - Peridot is my favourite Gem, of course I’d say something like that. But look at those hands, reaching upwards. They look like the translucent hands seen in the In Too Deep promo.

The Gem in the middle of the mural section is also surrounded in a large, triangular shape - not that dissimilar from the Gem Drill.

Then there’s the depiction of the Gem herself. She has Peridot’s physique. She’s wearing a mask, or a visor. Her hair is very similar to Peridot’s, albeit with some extra points, but doesn’t that make it appear more star shaped, to imply her defection to the Crystal Gems? Then there’s her outfit, it looks like Peridot’s jumpsuit, doesn’t it? Sure, the Gem might be in the wrong place but it’s the right shape, and we’ve seen that Gems of the same type can have their gemstone in different places.

It’s fandom concensus that mural in the middle is an obvious reference to the Gems’ history on Earth. But the mural to the left is a prediction of the future. We know that Sapphire can see into the future, perhaps she, or one of her kind, saw that the Cluster would be built, that 5,000 years later Homeworld would send a Peridot to check it, and that Peridot would drill to the centre of the Earth.

So this leads me to the mural on the right. The Gem depicted is similar, but there’s a few differences. If it is Peridot again, what on Earth is going on? She’s missing her arms, and is surrounded by something with large spikes protruding from it. Is this Peridot, having been damaged somehow, attempting to regenerate? Is it a reference to her losing her limb enhancers? Hmm…

I should be more disturbed by this, but I can't help laughing at its overblown silliness.

So, will the end of the "In Too Deep" four-week event be the end of season 2? Or will it still be season 2 when it's over?

Steven Bomb 4 was the Season 2 finale, though we did not learn this until several months after the fact (rather odd, as this would have been a fantastic promotional opportunity).

Steven Universe seasons are now being made in blocks of 26 episodes (as opposed to the 52 episodes of Season 1). Thus, In Too Deep will be the Season 3 premiere, and we will presumably see the remaining 21 episodes during the Summer of Steven.

Hi Im Back My Arms Healed Up (it Broke),so I Can Sketch And Stuff; So Sorry If The Lineart/color And

Hi I’m back my arm’s healed up (it broke),so I can sketch and stuff; so sorry if the lineart/color and stuff isn’t too high quality.

I have a theory that pink diamond is trapped in the mantle with the cluster, doomed to be shattered when it forms. Can’t wait for in too deep \qwq/

Did you have a problem with Ronaldo’s attempted murder? If so, you are not alone.
