>>84325292Bismuth's emotions are dependent on the environment around her. When Pearl cries it makes her cry. When someone's happy, she's even more happy.
When there's anger and fear in a war, she's a one-woman army flattener.
Why is she like this? To perfectly compliment her partner in fusion. Bismuth is a complimentary gem. Her gemstone turns inward, so as to fuse about and merge wholly with other gems. Defusing from her is a LOT of work, as she easily loses her own emotions in the fusion, and just feeds those of others. She was last fused with Rose Quartz, as Pink Diamond, who in her own epiphany, defused from her own compliment to revert to Quartz state and experience her own emotions as seperate and whole, not fed by an armament.
All the Diamonds are fusions of a complimentary gem, and probably a Quartz.
Speaking of, if Bismuth was in that bubble in Lion, then who's in THIS bubble? Maybe that's what Smoky Quartz is about and what properly made the ceasefire a thing; Rose killed (read:defused and trapped part of) White Diamond. We've only seen soldiers of Blue and Yellow Diamond, and just symbolic elements of White Diamond about. Perhaps Smoky Quartz was what White Diamond was defused into, and now she's back, ready to go 'Back 2 the Moon' and get her other half. All those Amethyst-betrayal hinting titles. I can see two quartzes becoming Diamonds and heading to Homeworld to fuck shit up after Smoky was abandoned on Earth 5000 years. White Diamond and Purple Diamond, Trashy punk gems and 80s Madonna gems, roaring back to knock out all the meatheads and waify Blue Diamond minions.
