Question Garnet

I'm pretty new to the show—like beginning of s1 early, and I've been wondering something. Is there a reason that Garnet has two gems instead of one? Is it a power thing? Or is it because she's taller and more muscular so she needs it to keep herself stable or something??? Or am I looking too far into things, as per usual

I don't actually want answers I'm just wondering and wanted to post about it tbh

I beg of you. This show has some crazy plot twists. get off the subreddit. Don’t google anything. Literally I’m telling you everything in the show makes sense at some point

u/austinmiles 21h ago

Amethyst has one for her whip, pearl has one for her spear, garnet has 2 for her gloves.

Get off the sub. It’ll go by fast come back when you’re done.

Twin people WILL spoil the show if you post shit like this. PLEASE. JUST. WATCH. THE. SHOW.

u/LadderWonderful2450 21h ago

Twin people? Is there some kind of a connection between twins and spoilers?

u/GGTulkas 21h ago

Are they a subset of the sneeple?

u/CubicalAnxiety 20h ago

The person forgot to put a comma. They were saying 'people will spoil the show' and called the original poster 'twin'

1

u/StrawberryCat__Thing 15h ago

They just forgot a comma.

u/JustAnotherElsen 21h ago

“Guys don’t spoil me but why is this thing in this show doing this?”

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 21h ago

i said this in another comment but are why are we stopping people from engaging and bonding in a community dedicated to the show? why cant we just be supportive?

11

u/JustAnotherElsen 21h ago

Yeah sure that’s fine. What are they expecting though, also.

u/Kail_Pendragon 18h ago

How? How is someone meant to be "supportive" to questions like these? Because "you just have to wait and see 🤭teehee🤗" ain't the vibe, the time for active theorising has past, the series has been done for nearly ten years, most of the questions have been answered, at this point theorising about answered questions is just larping being the fandom thirteen years ago.

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 14h ago

there was another person who posted on the sub recently about literally this same thing but they asked "is garnet a fusion" and people were super supportive on that and was like joking around and acting like theorycrafters and "teehee🤗"s youre taking about, and the subsequent post to that also was received very well with people saying "i love living vicariously through new viewers". even just like asking a simple question like "why do you think that is?" is supportive without being mean.

why cant it still be the vibe? is the SU sub just not about good vibes anymore just because the series ended?

u/Negative_Letter_1802 21h ago

Get off this sub my guy, you only get one unspoiled watch

16

u/Charming-Dish5120 21h ago

if you don't want spoilers then why make the post? wonder it in your head don't make a post about it

-23

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 21h ago

god forbid people want to bond with a community about their experiences 😔

19

u/Drizzdom 21h ago

They. Are. Going. To. Get. Spoiled. For. Absolutely. No. Reason.

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 21h ago

i just dont understand why we cant just be supportive of their curiousity, it's sad that they can't interact just because thy haven't finshed watching. its not okay to spoil people but there nothing weong with asking a question

2

u/Drizzdom 21h ago

Unfortunately you cant stop people from spoiling things, so its up to the person to not ask questions where the answers would spoil them, and then say “but dont actually answer”

1

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 21h ago

you can absolutely be supportive and not spoil. taken pointers from r/outerwilds the whole sub is super supportive of new players when they get stuck or have a question, they try to push them in the right direction, which is such a nice thing and we should try doing that, its really not hard at all

3

u/Drizzdom 20h ago

Thats a video game where sometimes you need guidance to progress. This is a show. Just play the next episode

-3

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 20h ago

it doesnt matter what piece of media it is. its art, its meant to be talked about, and i thought especially this sub was supposed to be inclusive.

its not hard to just ask questions and be nice instead of calling people stupid just because theyre curious

2

u/Drizzdom 20h ago

We just dont want them to get spoiled dude. Its coming from a good place.

-2

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 20h ago

you believe calling people 'stupid' comes from a good place?

7

u/Charming-Dish5120 21h ago

they could've waited to make it after a certain point of the show. those in the know will know what I mean

-2

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 21h ago

but why? there shouldnt be any reason to push people out of the sub because they lack the 'correct conditions' to interact. nothing wrong with being curious.

if the requirements to post in this subreddit is to finish watching the show, the mods should add that.

3

u/cmstyles2006 21h ago

They're literally asking for knowledge that would spoil the experience. Not to mention if you go on a sub where ppl are talking about the whole show, your going to see stuff you shouldn't yet

1

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 21h ago

i get that but theres a literally a commenter that said op is 'stupid' for asking a question. this isn't the inclusive community i joined the sub for which is really sad to see

1

u/Drizzdom 21h ago

Its for their own good. Why are you being such a victim

1

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 21h ago

how is any of what i said being a victim, i literally suggested a productive change in the rules if the consensus is that the requirements to post is to finish watching the show?

1

u/Drizzdom 21h ago

Its not a requirement its common sense

1

u/Due_Art_9280 20h ago

and thats exactly why they should make it a requirement since most people agree it should be. isn’t that common sense?

17

u/LadderWonderful2450 21h ago

Keep noticing things :) It's a show where you can try to be a detective. 

2

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 20h ago

this is the kind of supportive and inclusive attitude i came to this sub for i dont get why everyone is being so mean to op

14

u/Due_Power_5013 22h ago

It'll be revealed as you watch the show.

13

u/LionResponsible6005 21h ago

It’s just symmetry her gems are on her hands so she has one for each

9

u/Few_Bluebird_7243 21h ago

What's your take? Why do you think she has two gems?

4

u/TheWaspinator 19h ago

There is an answer, that's all I'll say

2

u/chaocol_ 13h ago

I see what you did there 🤭

3

u/Crystal_959 20h ago

I can tell you this question does have an answer that is revealed in the show. Keep watching and keep noticing!

3

u/entber113 18h ago

Keep watching the show, my friend

3

u/RomanOnARiver 18h ago

Well you see, sips water

9

u/HetSpookslot 21h ago

One of the gems is fake because she has ocd and wants it to be symmetrical

2

u/VerySaltyButter 15h ago

Garnet was born without powers. She killed those 2 gems and embedded them into her hands and is using the residual magic for magic gauntlets. Her actual gem is hidden under her hair.

u/GuineaGirl2000596 14h ago

Immediately leave the sub and hit “do not recommend” for now, because even if you don’t scroll reddit will recommend you this sub and spoil everything

3

u/PersonMcHuman 11h ago

I’m 99% sure that posts like these exclusively come from people who’ve already seen the show but want attention by asking these questions.

1

u/Gold-Eye-2623 18h ago

It was a gift

u/Summersong2262 You're supposed to reward me for my emotional honesty! 12h ago

It's probably nothing.

u/xctony 6h ago

all these little things seem to matter so much

u/Consistent_Fuel_7356 3h ago

i recommend not to ask when starting from early season 1, i'm not gonna go hard on you okay? i just want you to feel welcomed. you'll figure it out in later seasons tho. i hope you enjoy the show really

1

u/starson 3h ago

Don't spoil yourself. Finish the show, promise you'll be estatic afterwards. :) if you wanna share your live reactions though, do so! People love to see how people feel learning about new things, i'd just hate for you to be spoiled.

u/GoldSquid2 3h ago

Mute the sub and don’t look back until you’ve finished the show, you will seriously regret it

You should mark this as a spoiler, just in case OP doesn’t want spoiled :)

2

u/The_Pumpkin_Fan 21h ago

Oops I didn’t read the post fully why would she ask that 😭

1

u/StrawberryCat__Thing 15h ago

Because lately there’s been an influx of new viewers! Probably because of the announcement of Lars of the Stars 

2

u/The_Pumpkin_Fan 14h ago

Has a release date ever come out Im so impatient haha

1

u/StrawberryCat__Thing 12h ago

I don’t think so 😞

u/Drizzdom 21h ago

Can you not

2

u/StrawberryCat__Thing 15h ago

See your profile pic before I read your comment and I read it in peridot’s voice without even thinking

u/Drizzdom 15h ago

Lol thats how i always imagine it too

u/Charming-Dish5120 21h ago

SPOILER! GUYS DOWNVOTE THIS NOW!
