take a shitty day and make it alright

So everyone seems to be raving over

James Baxter

Because of the scene in steven universe when steven fused back together.

But did you know this man also did….

THIS?

And this?

And….THIS???

And this????

What we expected:

What we got:

We see the scene from Steven’s point of view, after- and his vision is split.

As is, he sees his fleshy body with one eye-

- and the Gem!Steven forms and sees what they see from his other eye- and we can safely say Gem!Steven has the same vision.

Steven is confused and hurting- but, despite the horror of the situation, he bursts into tears, because he’s suddenly feeling desperate.

“I have to-”

“I need-”

Reaches out towards Gem!Steven, weeping, begging to be reunited- and Gem!Steven evidently feels the same, as there is no hesitation as they start walking towards Steven

I see people saying ‘They are a fusion’ but… no, not really?

They are part of a whole that has been sepparated physically, but mentaly they are still one.

Two pieces struggling to find each other, so they could form and be whole again.

Like the gem shard in the Cluster, really.

Or any gem- any shattered gem.
