SU Thoughts:Amethyst

SU thoughts:Amethyst

You know, even before I saw the episode where Peridot tells Amethyst what she is, I always thought Amethyst resembled Jasper because of the spikey long hair.I’ve also always wondered why amethyst was so short and tbh, not as elegant as the other gems.It just never seemed like that was what she was meant to be if that makes sense. Her design just seemed like it was more than the typical ‘stocky quirky person’ (lets be honest,every team has one)to balance out and bring diversity to the team. She has way too much personality and character dev to be your basic comedic relief.And we know this show is pretty serious and that sacrificing a character to a cliche based on physical character design is beyond it.But I think the creators of su wanted us to think that she was just your average funny sidekick/secondary chararacter who occasionally gets an episode or two due to some generic personal conflict. But no, she has an actual story that even she herself never knew about and that is something I never could have guessed would come out of my suspicions of amethyst being short. <
