#worm steven

In the last pisode of Future before the hiatus, we were left with a very lost feeling Steven, so much so that he’s turned to a erm.. very unhealthy, and I’d say creepy coping mechanism;

All of his friends moving on to bigger things has sent his need to feel needed skyrocketing. Now he’s tending to plants he’s named after his friends, because these plants will always need him and, more importantly, can’t leave. Right?

Except oh, oof, um.. yeah, about that., one did leave him. That must’ve been traumatic af as we’re left with a somber shot of Steven, holding a flower that was given to him by the plant who’s leaving. So, we have a Steven who reeeaaallly needs to feel needed and loved by the people around him. Hmmmmm where could he go to find endless amounts of validation, i wonder?

Steven’s going to get desperate enough to go see the Diamonds, except whoops

He’s not needed there anymore either, because Spinel is there, who i predict by this point will have also made strides moving on from Pink Diamond, and thus also Steven. When he realizes this, we’ll probably get another Pink Steven outburst, which will inevitably lead, 

to this;

Steven will corrupt White Diamond, and I presume not only corrupt her, but take over her, much like how she was able to take over other gems. Why? Recognize the pose yet?

Steven only takes that pose when he’s going through intense turmoil. He’s going to go through the mother of identity crisis once he corrupts WD, and after that, well, it’s all heading to the one thing we’re all thinking, and its been forshadowed in the show before:

What event will cause him to corrupt himself, you ask? Welp, hold on to your hats, because there’s one piece of forshadowing we all got wrong, fam: What did Pink Diamond do to Pink Pearl? What act made her learn to control her temper again? 

Steven’s kaiju form WAS corruption, he was only physically healed after he cried and the water basically acted as the fountain water

Apparently, diamonds can self corrupt. They can corrupt others, makes sense they can corrupt themselves.

I Am My Monster

you know how fucked up it would be if a particularly bad nightmare caused Steven to corrupt during his 39-state road trip?

(warning: horror)
