I think it would've been noteworthy to mention her reaction after she spared Topaz. She said "let's never speak of this again" while avoiding looking at Topaz and appearing a bit more vulnerable for a moment and uncomfortable with what she just attemped to do. She didn't tell anyone about Topaz's attempted betrayal. It was heavily implied she felt some care for Topaz and didn't like the idea of her getting shattered, maybe because they've been together for a long time?
Maybe
I thought that too
_"This stone will keep you from getting rock hard"_
fair play, quote of the month!
A good gag-gift for Whitney.
You cant stop me from getting hard
Happy birthday
Rule 34 you can try but you can’t stop me
sorry to be so offtopic but does someone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb lost my password. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
*[These two are basically boss and slave, with Aquamarine being the bitch boss we always hated, and Topaz being just a slave who did nothing wrong but to obey Aquamarine's orders]*
I agreed
*_(Excuse me..what?)_*
Your in EVERY SINGLE steven universe video
@@aquamarine5194 😂
PERI WHO TAUGHT YOU THAT POTTY MOUTH!?
I always loved tiny little brat villains for some reason, so Aquamarine is one of my fave SU foes for that reason. She’s sassy and will kick your ass but you wouldn’t think it. It’s great design!
*Period. Spittin' True Facts Right There*
Tbh she’s one of my favorite gems XD
Cartman: But Myam!
Aquamarine is often given as a love token or eternity ring, and increases commitment and fidelity. It makes a lovely gift for newlyweds but it can cost more than diamond jewelry!
I learned this while shopping for a gift for a friend's wedding.
I guess that fits her. she is commited to making Steven's life hell, and apparently is commited enough to eyeball (a significantly lower ranking gem) to enter a stable fusion with them
Topaz is my birthstone and related so much with one's we've seen the most. Silent and strong on the outside, but can be soft and emotional.
It's funny because Peridot is my gemstone and I relate to her a lot too. I'm always seeking attention and approval but in the form of laughs because I like making people happy and being funny, but I'm sarcastic a lot and sometimes rude, I'm also small and also sometimes loud haha.
Same, I prefer to listen rather than speak and I wear my heart on my sleeve.
Indeed
I relate to alexandrite and pearl in the show,I’m salty and have problems staying together
@@GalacticRainestorm if you’re autistic and ace, then you really fit peri
Tiny thing: The reason they gather these specific humans is because Steven told Peridot about them earlier on... but there was a tiny misunderstanding! Steven made it sound like those were all the humans; Aquamarine and Topaz were trying to abduct the entire human race!
Aquamarines are actually said to bring good luck, which may be why she was able to get Steven on homeworld and why the diamonds sent an aquamarine to get humans
Hmm.............................

One little thing:
Almost all butterfly appearances (like Aquamarine) in Steven Universe have had an antagonistic role.
are there other butterflys?
@@awesomegaymer5786
Probably our Lapis when she was first set free and the Lapis Lazuli twins.
(Assuming they're talking about gems that have butterfly-like wings)
@@ktyn8758 but lapis doesnt have butterfly wings
@@ktyn8758 I was talking about the butterflies in serious Steven (THEY'RE EATING MY EYES!) and in Mindful Education (I don't need to explicit that one)
must be their effect again...
No one:
Absolutely no one:

Do Yellow, Blue and Volleyball (Pink Pearl) Pearl next.
Yaaaaaas! As well as emerald
I had to read this comment 3 times before understanding it 😅
Rock
Aquamarine: “Respect mah athouriteeeh” 😎
Pretty much!
You should've respected my authoritaah
My immediate thought was what if the Topaz fusion had gone through with the revolt, they could've become members of the Crystal Gems. Then, I remembered that they have no idea about life outside of the Diamond Empire, so that's not an imaginable outcome. Still rewatching these analyses because they're awesome.
Put "Rock Facts" on a shirt and I'd wear it
And that's a rock fact!
0:10 Thank you, society! Now when I see a graph, I instantly think of the Meme Man ( aka Stonks Guy). Also Jesus Khrist Kris, are you sure you're ok? You sound like you're in pain. Next time just get Whitney to do the video if you're not up to it.
Andrew Bright I was so medicated that we got through it 😅 All better now!
Fun fact on the Absorbaloff that Kris mentioned. It's from the same planetary group as the Slitheen species from Raxacorricofallapitorious. The Absorbaloff is from Clom.
Andrew you are my people!!!!!!
You just wanted to type Racacorricofallapitorious, didn't you?
I am confusion
I wonder if anyone did a video about how Lars is basically an Android now. Seeing as Gems are just extremely highly sophisticated computers when Lars was revived the broken biological parts were replaced and healed by the synthetic parts of Stevens gem. It could be said that the reason Steven heals bio-organics is probably because his saliva has nanobots that they temporarily fuse/bind with the targeted person. They bound with Coonie to heal her eyes. BUT with Lion and Lars the healing was SO INTENSE the nanobots needed to be more permanently bound for the healing to be successful. Having these permanent nanobots in their bodies allows them to use varies Gem powers to a degree. Lars can't summon warp holes like Lion since he just doesn't have enough time to explore what he can do but he still has the hair portal ability with Steven (that only activate with Steven due to some sort of encryption code in his DNA/Gem that allows the nanobots to recognize his presence and activate the hair portal).
Aquamarine somewhat reminds me of Darla Dimple from Cats Don't Dance
Like if you feel the same way
There is no Doctor Who episode called Love and Monsters. Here in our fandom we are safe. Here in our fandom we are free.
Now that you mentioned Eric Cartman... Aqua does look like him very vaguely. She looks more like a fancy and petty version of Dora and the laughing emoji
Too bad she didn't yell out, "You shall respect my authoritah".
Having a respiratory issue in early 2020 was rlly bad timing lol
Topaz is sooooo pretty please could you do pearls in general as I would love to see what you think of them as a unit
Will do guys be doing Bluebird Azurite next?
I think it doesn't completely matter what the status of the Gem is on the subject of diverse designs. While Gems like Sapphires and the Diamonds look pretty different from each other, lower ranking Gems like Amethysts and Peridots have pretty different designs from each other. I guess it depends on the Gem:/
I'd love to see a video on the symbolism on the Nephrites
YAY FINALLY AQUAMARINE ME BIRTHSTONE YEEEE thx love your vids
Itzymation studios are you a Pisces or Aires
@@blueshadow3911 I am pisces OuO
Itzymation studios
SAME 0W0
Itzymation studios me too
@@blueshadow3911 oh Yay
There is a Minecraft mod that has Topaz as a very important piece of progression. It is built on color and the three base gems represent the primary colors in a subtractive color space. Topaz is cyan, citrine is yellow, and amethyst is magenta
I had a rocking horse called Topaz when I was a little kid, so I suppose it’s good that I like the SU character. I feel I should also mention I can do a solid Aquamarine impression (specifically, the ‘your ruining my moment!’ line), and I really appreciate the Doctor Who reference).
Thank you I can’t unsee the prison tat now
Her wand reminds me of Syndrome from The Incredibles lol. She kind of acts like Buddy too..
This opening monologue has not aged well 😔
there was a purple topaz in the end of change your mind, you just have to look for the gem
Really!?
We need gem fusion explanations such as OPAL
Hey! Here's a character I would really love you guys to cover, Greg Universe. I know he's not a Gem but he's just such a cool character.
i wish we could get a comic book or something about aquamarine and eyeball! it would be so cute if while on the run, they began to fall in love
Plot Twist: This was among of the first Covid cases.
I feel like Aquamarine and Eyeball Ruby would be the kind of couple that only would be a couple, just to spite people.
"Aww little Wosy is sadd her plan didn't work🥺Look im crying HAHAHA it was just my gem PFFFFFFFT"
*Yes.*
So basically you're describing topaz a big ol softy
Aquamarine is my favourite villain
I was born in December and Blue Topaz is my birthstone
The first 20 seconds of this make it very clear that it was recorded before the onset of the coronavirus.
We saw a corrupted blue topaz in the steven universe comics! I think that is the only other color topaz we get to see.
I have this really cool nail polish with Aquamarine ground up in it. I also have one with Amythist in it
Upper respiratory infection? Fever?
Oh no!
Aquamarine yelling "man" is the least concerning when she's giving a bigger cart an vibe.
I have only one thing to say:" na hahaha ha ha! I made you eat your pareeents"
Speaking of Emerald...Is Emerald next...ah...ah
"and acute. jehe,I'll see myself out" *walks out😂
fun fact: Topaz are a kind of quartz😉
My birthstone is aquamarine. I'm definitely emotional.
I would like a redo on my birth month! I don't wanna be associated with the murder pixie
The upper respiratory joke hits different after all of this lol
Surprised out of all of the videos in this series they haven't mentioned the mohs scale once
*[Yay the Topaz Fusion]*
*_[ :/ ]_*
Hello y’all
Aquamarine indeed is the Eric Cartman of Steven Universe
0:03 DID YOU DIE? 3 YEARS ARE NOT HERE
Hey are you guys going to do any other gems next? If so I would love it if you would do holly blue agate next!
I love Kris! If she did these SU vids till the end of time, I'd watch all of them.
i love the doctor who reference !
Samir Durrani ❤️❤️
I love Lapis. 💖
Topazes are radioactive
Me: Time to become a crystal gem
lol, that intro not aged well.
*upper respiratory infection*
Uh oh
I really enjoyed this! Can you do opal next?
Steven: **slaps* *bluberd** "*bluebird* *is* *blasting* *off* *again!*"
*[Ah, the noble and exquisite ME! oh, and those topazes, I guess..]*
Blue Topaz was in the lighthouse.
7:02 Inspired by Eric Cartman? Funny, I read Stewie from Family Guy all over her
Do Emerald Next?!
😱😱😱😱😱When u said topaz is radioactive I almost peed my self but I live in America so I'm probably ok😮💨
This vid actually helped me realize that my boyfriend is aquamarine (he's a pisces) while I'm ruby or I guess eyeball (I'm a cancer) and we've been together for 5 soon to be 6 years now
Blue Zircon and Green Zircon, please!
She's a yellow Zircon
I have aquamarine earings and my birth stone is sapphire
I’m a Sagittarius born in November and Topaz is a perfect fit for me.
Same, I'm not much for conversation and I tend to be very emotional.
2:40 sounds like the lying Ruby that deceives the Crystal Gems and have them falling out of the ship
Peridot said that in era 2 they cant do gems like they used to... they are smaller and without powers, so they have to use technical support like enhancers... so are akvamarines what left in era 2 from lapis lazulies?
Awww I’m so glad the topazes got to be together! They’re so sweet.
i'm born in march so does that mean i'm all of those trates
I wanted to get my birthstone as a steven universe tattoo, but unfortunately im not about getting a prison tat.
Ugh, I'm sorry about the infection, hun. I had bronchitis last month and it was the pits.
m3rrys0ngstr3ss ooooph I’m sorry you went through it too!
@@kriscarr4929 Thank you! It's the kind of thing I wouldn't wish on my enemies.
Uh... Please tell me they (the respective captives) could breath when topz fused around them
Greg or Connie next pls
She already did Ruby and Sapphire when she did Garnet
epicyoutuber 6996 they already did that in the Garnet vid,
Oof im so stupid i meant greg or connie’s symbolism
epicyoutuber 6996 oof is good
My birthstone is a Topaz!! 😀
Same! And my cousin and my mom's birthstone is Aquamarine 😀
Aquamarine sounds like peppa pig
can you do the ruby squad
The first time I saw Topaz, I expected her to have a voice like Arnold Schwarzenegger for some reason...
Hey don't forget the people with the two fish as a zodiac is also very jealous
What if topaz fused with aquamarine
Topaz is also the name of a really good song by the B52's.
Can you please do opal and sun stone next
My birthstone is actually a Blue Topaz🙂 I even made my own Steven Universe Gem character Blue Topaz!
Woah cool
It's a good thing Aquamarine didn't turn Greg into Chilli then feed it to Steven.
I want Greg chilli

Topaz is babies
ALL MY SCORPIOS WYA??
Aquamarine made me dislike my own birthstone lmao
Hi! when you refer to something as weight and length, is it possible to also include the metric system?
I don'tl know how long three feet of how heavy 600 pounds is and need to search it every time.
Idk how to reply but I want more people to see this
I will do my best!!!
Just think that an elephant is 6000 pounds
@@nicosalsa21 so I have to think about a tenth of an elephant? Still a little complicate, never met an elephant! Have you?
Sokomous 600 pounds is about 272 kilograms and 3 feet is just less than a meter (about 91% of a meter). 1 pound is around 454 grams
I'm watching this straight after look at steven universe fan art🎨
I changed my aquamarine as a defective type she was created way to late and her form was taller like lapis and her gem shaped of a diamond not a tear drop and she doesn’t wield a wand she wields a Japanese dagger to show she’s different than the others
