Ok this started off as just commentary and tagging under This Wonderful Art by jen-iii, but I didn’t want to risk highjacking someone else’s art post with my nattering, so I figured I’d make it it’s own post.
stylishandillegal: #okay but wheres the posts about how fucked up it is that fusions are seen as war machines
Yes! I really loved hearing her call Garnet that cause of what it says about Homeworld attitudes, particularly in light of Jasper’s earlier “this shameless display” from The Return.

i think the reason why peri called her a war machine is because the only times she does see the other gems is when they’re attacking her
But she said it to GARNET specifically, and Garnet kinda got taken aback and really offended
The war was a bad memory for the Gems and I believe theres something about Garnet that is especially troubling. Garnet’s a FUSION, She’s immensely powerful
I wouldn’t be surprised if she was the ‘Berserker’ on the battlefield and thus had MANY Gems come to fear her, perhaps even start a ‘legend’ of sorts
Garnet is probably the equivalent to the ‘boogyman’ for gem kind tbh
