Garnet's forced fusion has them looking like an imperfect fusion, think Malachite. They look wrong.

But when they reach that point of "We choose to fuse. We choose love. This is our choice now. Not yours." They look normal. like a "perfect fusion".

Perhaps… each consecutive reformation over the years, they grew to be more harmonious and in sync with one another. They didn't want to unfuse out of an inherent fear of repercussion even despite no longer being on homeworld and under Pink's control. they eventually learn to let go and unfuse now and again.. and learn to be on their own and explore each other individually.

They refuse in the end tho and find more peace with each other overtime. Which leads to their eventual perfect fusion as they have reached that peak level of loving themselves and becoming the one. the singularity.

No longer are they fused for entertainment of someone else, but choosing to be fused of their own free will.

Pink Sapphire and Ruby.. together as Rhodolite Garnet.

(I don't know if I'll ever draw their forced fusion form)

Amethyst is both overcooked and didn't have enough resources to fully form, hence her slightly off proportions. (Her lower half is smaller than her upper half on top of just being way shorter than she should be)

If she was on Homeworld she would have been given limb enhancers. She hates when her appearance is noted as she struggles to overcome her own self-hate. Wishing she was made perfect.. like Jasper. However, overtime and with the help of her friends and Steven, she's begun her journey to self-love and self-acceptance.

Peridot learns of Amethyst's distaste for verbal observations first hand and refrains from it after learning her lesson.

Pearl.. is what all pearls are like originally. she has no personalized customization. she is, default. Out of playful curiosity she was pushed onto White as a companion piece.

Pearl saw the misery of White's position under Pink's control, even if White couldn't see it herself (not fully and not well given her power of allowing others to control her like a puppet.. a toy) and helped to get White to leave and escape Homeworld. This caused Pink to throw the biggest tantrum.

Homeworld hasn't been the same since.

the way Greg manages to get through to White when she's on earth and to connect with her is through his music. he plays his music and it resonates with her. She ends up spending more time with him due to the music bringing them together.

She sings along to his playing and it's magical. They share information about gems and humans.. and they share music and song.

A parallel to Rose & Greg.

music brings everyone together in some way

I had the image of her turning away from Greg and him panicking and just starts playing his guitar for her and it stops her. He starts singing a song for her and she slowly turns around to watch and listen.

Maybe she joins in, too.. Repeating a few lines with him.

He got her attention!!! he scored a point!!!

Blue: ..It's no use starting another war. What would even be the point? It would only bring more misery, and that would only delay our progress even further.

Yellow: Right.. We need to focus on our colonies. Our work, and our.. roles. We must play along. We don't have the time to keep fretting over this.. little incident.

Pink: Oh? Has my favorite little plaything finally returned to me? But who played with you? You've changed your appearance, White.. What a shame.. you were perfect, but now? ..I'm sorry, but I don't think even a rejuvenation will fix you. We'll have to shatter and try again. We can always make more gems. Even diamonds if so desired, though finding the resources for another will take some time. I really wish you had stayed.. Wasn't it fun, White? Playing those games with me? Why did you leave? Don't you know how much that hurt me? Really.. I can't believe you'd go and hurt me like that, but.. You won't have to hurt me anymore now that you're back! In fact, you won't have to hurt anyone anymore! Now, come here and give me your gem~
