conuly1. Okay, so that's a really good argument. How did Rose Quartz get close enough to shatter anybody?
2. Not that I really believe it's Yellow Diamond, who's obviously being set up there. Having a hair-trigger temper and a really poor alibi does not a criminal make. Not necessarily, anyway.
3. Geez, Homeworld is worse than I thought. Not just socially, with the "off-color" gems - though given that gems don't seem to need to consume things to survive, I don't see why they have to shatter those, it'd surely be just as easy to maroon them on some asteroid or something - but physically. Right outside the kangaroo courtroom is ruins. Broken statues, holes in the ground - ruins. Steven doesn't take much notice of this, understandably, but it's a bit shocking.
4. And there really must be more social renegades than we've been previously led to assume if those robots are a frequent occurrence in this abandoned kindergarten. Surely even Homeworld is not going to expend this much effort over two deformed gems and eight more who have decided to form two unusual fusions.
5. Okay, Lars turning pink, now he'll fit right in if he ever moves to Bluffington. More seriously, I lol'd through this entire segment with Steven popping blithely back and forth between Homeworld and Earth. And he *is* going to have to keep checking up on Lars, if only to provide him with an oven and some ingredients.
(Steven should absolutely bring more people to life. This is hilarious.)
6. "Predicts things that already happened" got real old, real fast. She's lucky the rest of them believe in sticking together, because they must get sick of it too. It seems she's also, tragically, unable to control whether or not she shares her obsolete visions.
7. Oh, FFS, Lars! The pocket universe isn't in your head, it's just in your hair! Cut it off and climb in!

Fluorite reminds me of Maurice Sendak.

If her skill never comes in handy (perhaps expressing something that just happened that the crew either didn't notice or had no way of knowing) I'm going to be really, really annoyed.
