There is a lot that we still don’t know about Gems, even after #StevenBomb4. At the front of the mind (ours at least) might very well be the question of where Gemkind came from? We learned a bit more about them though: a bit of confirmation about how same-gem fusions work, and Gemkind’s mission to conquer the universe.

Sophia, GC13, and Ken discuss the episode currently holding the show record for most characters killed off on-screen: Steven and the Stevens.
Ken may not be able to get past (an alternate version of) Steven killing off so many alternate versions of himself, but if Steven and the Pompadours wasn’t going to happen, then there probably wasn’t much use in keeping the Time Thingie around anyway.
With the rules for time travel presented in the first half of season one though, we have to wonder… What does the homeworld do with the other time travel artifacts that they are certain to have?

What could #StevenBomb4 mean about shapeshifting?
We’ve finally got an answer to one question: yes, Steven can shapeshift to modify his form. While we’ve learned about shapeshifting’s energy drain though, it leaves us wondering about the mechanics of this seemingly universal feature of gemkind.
What #StevenBomb4 taught us about the homeworld
We learned a few interesting things about the Gem homeworld in these past few episodes. One thing, the extremely rigid hierarchy, is something we already guessed at, but we learned some new interesting factoids about them as well!

GC13, Sophia, and Hunter discuss that wacky episode: Joking Victim. It has fire breathing and a giant bowl of ice cream (but somewhere in Delmarva there’s a bigger bowl), so you know it’s going to be good.
After the obligatory beating up on Lars comes a discussion of Steven Universe’s hottest tune: Do or Donut! Mr. Smiley needs to put out his next album soon, because as far as we’re concerned he’s pure gold. (If you haven’t seen the old Wendy’s training video, Hot Drinks, make sure to check it out.)
Of course no one is perfect in Steven Universe (even Mayor Dewey has his flaws, however slight). Maybe Greg could help Mr. Smiley promote his hypothetical album by being his band leader…

Previous plans for the Earth
The Gems definitely have interesting ideas for what the Earth should look like. What do those plans indicate, however? This is the topic from our #StevenBomb4 lore implications we’re taking a look at first.
Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 70: Coach Steven

GC13, Sophia, and Dakota (who is finally back in the real way) get back to the retro episode discussions and discuss our second fusion sighting: Coach Steven.
It was a long wait over the summer for Coach Steven, but everyone agrees we got a great episode out of the deal with Nicki Minaj doing a great vocal performance for another impressive fusion. Plus: spontaneous singing.
Of course if Sadie is destined to divorce Lars (as determined by Steven’s future vision), the question remains: who is right for her? Sophia is admanant that Ronaldo the Wise isn’t right for anyone, so that rather limits Sadie’s choices.
