just watched this animation of what the birth of the Diamonds from steven universe mightāve looked like and. had an idea. bc the vid was of like a space rock crashing into a planet, the gem sucks up the nutrients from the environment and is born. which is insane to think abt like crazyyyyy fucking asteroid that killed the dinosaurs adjacent concept, genius. but i was thinking abt gem biology bc i think rebeccca has confirmed they arenāt living; gems are technology. sooooo im gonna look up the angels from neon genesis and see if im drawing the right lines here bc theyāve referenced nge several times thru the show and thinking of the first diamonds as angels that all gem generations have spawned from isā¦. very fucking cool.
edit; okay so iāve always been rlly confused abt angels in nge bc they really are just humans big fleshy things. but as the wiki describes them āhumans who have cast aside human formsā, theyāve got some extra things that youād think would make them genetically dissimilar. powerful AT fields from an organ that theoretically provides them w limitless energy (?) . wtv AT fields are, angels have them so powerful that they physically manifest. and they all have a core which contains the supermegaenergy organ and other stuff, and that thru which is the only way to kill them (well shit where have we heard that before). they grow from oblong egg shaped things (idk if their form depends on the environment or if they draw from the surrounding area at all but š¤·) and *immediately to hatching, they undergo a spontaneous metamorphosis into their āadult formās.
so i cracked it. white diamond 100% an Angel. the angels were biological tech, gems are bio tech, donāt get lost in the details.
