Can Steven's diamond essence be negatively affected by his half-human side? In the original show, this is confirmed when the original Steven made a defective pebble with his sweat

But sweat is completely different from blood, and I was wondering if the fact that Steven's blood has DNA and other things could make the gems he created have his characteristics

Cg and Steven have the same detail of their front teeth being slightly separated, but Steven's only appeared for one chapter and was completely forgotten(😞)

White Diamond also already said that when you create a gem you bury a part of your past and that gem inherits it, and it explains why CG is kind of childish and silly

Since Steven from the first season and half of the second season was kind of silly and childish

(Not so silly and childish after all)

And I wonder if a CG could be similar to baby Steven, but without an abusive home and hundreds of abandonment traumas

Wow, thank you! There's a lot here to discuss.

First of all, thank you for thinking so deeply about the story. I like to think about it deeply too, so I fully understand the desire to analyze every detail like this. I think it's a sign of a good reader.

However, there are a couple of misunderstandings I wanted to clear up.

First, the Pebble that Steven makes!

the original Steven made a defective pebble with his sweat

I don't think there's anything in the show that hints that the pebble is in any way defective. It's just... a pebble. It's got a funky shape like all the other pebbles do.

Actually, I find that many people are too quick to assume that any gem that is slightly off from the model of 'defective'. Unless the characters in the show act like something is off, or say something, there's no reason for US as the audience to impose our own prejudices onto their shapes.

And ironically.... pointing to ANYTHING funny-looking and saying "it's obviously defective!" is a very... Homeworld way of thinking?

I find it funny that sometimes, some human judgements are more harsh than the Diamonds' aesthetic preferences. 😂

About CG's Tooth Gap

Cg and Steven have the same detail of their front teeth being slightly separated, but Steven's only appeared for one chapter and was completely forgotten

So, this isn't the first time someone has pointed at CG's tooth gap. In fact, in the past some people suggested that having a tooth gap meant she's off color!

That's absolutely silly. CG just has a tooth gap because it's cute.

Unfortunately, it's also not something she shares with Steven. Because Steven.........doesn't have a tooth gap. It's not something that was "completely forgotten". It was something that was "completely misunderstood."

This is maybe my fault. In season 1, my drawings were much more loose and less detailed. I tried to be obvious, but perhaps it wasn't obvious enough....... In the chapter that you referenced, Steven is.....very dirty! He has dirt on his hands, and his hair is ruffled, and he has stuff stuck in his teeth.

That entire arc was about how he and Earl were stuck in a hole! He complains about not having access to anything, including running water!! He's dirty. He's not been able to brush his teeth for a week.

That was why the tooth gap disappeared later. It was just a piece of food stuck in his teeth.........

Now, for the final thing....

Actually, I think your idea that Seaglass resembles Steven in many ways is still spot-on!

Obviously, she's also very different from him, too. In the beginning, It's their differences that are highlighted.

She's rambunctious and messy and stubborn.

However, despite all this, she's still clearly a chip off the old block. This part of her begins to become more prominent in Season 5, after the Cluster, and after their big fight. She starts to understand Steven better and he starts to let off on being overprotective. And as a result, you start to see other sides of CG.

She can be patient.

She can even be slightly manipulative - she is quite convincing when she speaks to Jasper. Her ability to pinpoint people's weaknesses comes directly from Steven.

And she even directly assists Connie and Steven in Steven's quite risky plan. She's clearly being trusted to keep some heavy secrets at this point.

Ironically, this makes her both unlike AND like Steven - and it also makes her an echo of another character from the series, who was ALSO 'raised' by a Diamond and was the littlest of her family and was often not taken very seriously by the others.......
