Leaving everything else that happened in Change Your Mind aside because WHAT AN EPISODE, I felt like really just focusing on Pearl and Steven fusing and the whole process that led to this moment. Like just think back on where Pearl and Steven’s relationship started off

Pearl having difficulty processing the fact that she was gonna lose Rose 

“what was she thinking, she can’t have a baby” 

To Pearl being inconsolable when Steven was born and Rose died

Then Pearl trying to understand Steven but not quite being able to understand that Steven is his own gem and not Rose anymore

As time passed and Steven moved in with them, Pearl begins acting like an overly protective mother figure to him…

….always keeping in mind that Rose might still be watching her “ do you remember this place, do you have any of her memories?” and “ well, I think you’re pretty great” 

And that time Steven jumped, and Pearl just let him fall. Because she was just so done with everything

To the moment where Pearl wanted to take Steven along with her to be able to show him the wonders of space

…. and then she accepts that she’s fine being on Earth with Steven

Steven trying to fix things between his dad and Pearl. And Pearl singing a heartbreaking song about losing Rose, a song that Steven had to listen to “what does it matter it’s already done, now I’ve got to be there for her son” 

But even during those snippets of hurt, loss and being unable to move on, Pearl still finds it in her to be able to love Steven and remain protective of him

Then the moments where Steven starts formulating questions about Pearl’s past and Pink Diamond, and Pearl is physically being restricted to talk about it, leading to Steven ending up in dangerous situations

And then Pearl finally breaking free from the last order that Pink Diamond gave her, and opening up about herself to Steven

… She had been wanting to tell him for so long

Then Steven validates Pearl’s feelings, relieving her of all the guilt she felt, by telling her that “You took her on this whirlwind tour of Earth and then she wanted to live here with you forever” (big gay energy tbh)

With this the chapter closed, all the secrets are left behind. All the resentment. Their relationship has reached the point where Pearl has accepted Steven as his own person, an individual separate from Rose, And Steven finally understands the position where Pearl is coming from as he got to have a look into her deepest emotions and most hidden traumas. From this point on, it only became a matter of time before we would see their fusion, and then it happened. 

It happens during a moment where they are at complete comfort with one another. And their love for each other reigns supreme and is pure and truthful, Steven and Pearl could finally fuse.
