Watching The Trial for the first time

SPOILERS!!

Okay I’ve never done this before, but I don’t think you’d be happy if you had to scroll through a post full of spoilers to get to the bottom of your Dashboard, so I’ll put the reactions below the cut.

(I watched it on YouTube btw.)

(I also put screenshots of, like, almost every single scene, so, extra beware I guess.)

-I have been freaking out for literally a week for this.

-Starting with a scene from the promo...

Ah, the ultimate punishment. Loneliness.

-Aquamarine: “My Diamonds I have captured Rose Quartz” BD: “Finally, for so long I’ve been waiting for my revenge on that little sh--” YD: “Lol ok just chuck her in a vault”

NEW GEM!!

-SHE’S A ZIRCON!!

-I love her voice!!

-Where’s her gem though... is it the thing on her neck?

*insert tfw meme here*

-Annnd scene from promo again

Sooo I’m assuming it’s a triangle because of the current Diamond Insignia...

-That means it would’ve been a diamond if Pink Diamond was still around.

what a smug lil green sh-t

-Are Zircons all lawyers? Is Zircon the Gem equivalent of lawyers?

-Man, Blue Zircon must be having a crappy day, having to defend an intergalactic criminal that the entirety of Homeworld’s (probably) been hating for the past few millennia.

WHAT HAPPENED TO YELLOW PEARL’S VOICE

-It sounds like it got an octave higher with twice the voice crack

-”aLL RISE FOR THE LIRLMADTDASDFGASY YelLOW DiAmOND”

-Is Yellow Pearl going through puberty

-BLUE PEARL TALKED

-(Did she talk before? I forgot.)

-She’s so quiet

THE GIANT SPACE LADIES ARE TELEPORTING

oOOHHHHHHHHHH

-THE PART THAT DROVE TUMBLR CRAZY

-SERIOUSLY GUYS MY DASH’S BEEN FLOODING WITH BELLOW FUCKIN DIAMOND BECAUSE OF THAT PROMO

-Little question: Why do their attire keep changing? In Message received, YD had the long coat thing around her waist and her chest pattern looked like the above, then in That Will Be All, she was missing the coat thing and her chest part was split four ways. Blue Diamond sometimes wears a hood and sometimes doesn’t. Do they just shapeshift that often, or are those actual clothes that modify their appearance without shapeshifting? Is Yellow Diamond’s coat thing actually her coat thing?

-If that’s the case that would be a whole lotta fabric.

What’s YD’s hand shape

That moment when a Homeworld Gem sees Steven and thinks “wtf rose quartz”

Blue Diamond didn’t move her lips while talking here??

-Also, I was on the side of hoping that YD’s head thing was her hair, but it looks so much like a helmet by now that I may have to change my opinion.

-Ohhh there’s the quote from the promo

-I’m not sure if it was an animation error, or if BD was talking out of the other side of her mouth (invisible to us), or if Diamonds (or just Gems in general) can talk without moving their lips.

-So I’m guessing the Homeworld trial is meant for very serious cases, and the Diamonds are the judges? No jury or audience? Just the lawyer, the accused and the judge(s)?

their fucking chairs can teleport

OMFG BLUE PEARL DOODLING IS THE BEST THING EVER

-Unless that’s the Homeworld way of recording things

-The lines are so angular, it reminds me of when my tablet pen glitches out and draws a pentagon where I meant to draw a circle

She could have gone on with every single adjective in the dictionary for hours and I would’ve watched that

Yellow Diamond don’t got time for yo shit

-Yellow Pearl looks so done

So the “Rose Quartz committed a crime” bit was said by Green Zircon. I thought it was Blue Zircon when I heard it in the promo.

-Tbh I think gems of the same kind sound similar except for the Diamonds, and anyway I’m pretty sure it’s the same voice actor

FUCKIN AGAIN, SHE SAID ‘WHY’ BUT DIDN’T MOVE HER LIPS

-AT LEAST FINISH YOUR GODDAMN SENTENCE BEFORE YOU START GOING ALL VENTRILOQUIST ON ME

-”Exhibit A” Why do you use the human alphabet you smug rocky shits, if y’all are all so proud of yourselves at least make your own goddamn language

-LARS?!?!?!

pfft

-”WHO ARE THOSE HUGE - GIANT - LADIES?!”

-”Humans are loud, absolutely hideous creatures that serve no purpose whatsoever.” It may be so but we can make a necklace out of you

At every trial, the accused just kind of... sits... in a triangular ditch on the floor?

-Poor Steven, he’s a kid, maybe teen by human age but he’s still mostly a kid, why does he have to go through this

-STOP THAT VENTRILOQUIST SHIT, GREEN ZIRCON

*dramatic sound effect* *rolls eye*

EYEBALL RUBY IS THE WITNESS

-THAT WAS BACK IN SEASON THREE

-HOLY FUCK

-Eyeball Ruby... ‘eye’ witness... heh.

-THE SMALL RED RAGE CHILD IS HERE

-Like, I’m sure this trial is super serious for everyone in there, but I just can’t help laughing at how overly dramatic they are

-And here I thought I’d be crying

Eyeball: “s o o n...” *disappears into the corner*

-”Ugh, she’s good.”

the smug secretary

Are you seriously telling me that doodling with polygons is a legit way of recording things in Homeworld

-”Well, I’m convinced. Time to execute!” “Not yet.” Inside YD’s head: hello darkness my old friend, i haven’t got time for this shit, just let this be over...

-Shiiiit I feel so sorry for Blue Zircon

-Yellow Diamond gives exactly 0 fucks

Are their projected oval things hard light w/ weight as well?

Even Steven looks done

“Your mind tricks won’t work on me, Jedi!”

zoOOOOOP

-Someone make a YTP where the pod thing rockets into the air and throws Steven off into the abyss of nothingnes

I’m very very worried for Steven’s safety.

-The Diamonds hate him, Homeworld hates him, he could fall of that platform, one of the Diamonds could literally squish him... the possibilities are endless and he is pretty much doomed

-let him get away please

-And again, I swear Yellow Pearl’s voice got even more nasally than before

-Steven! Your name is Steven! YOU’RE NOT ROSE QUARTZ! YOU’RE STEVEN! *cries in the corner*

“holy shit this is real??”

-Yellow Diamond finally gave a fuck

But I think Blue Diamond’s fucks-given count went down a little

Smug green shit.

-Also Gems either have truly outrageous hair or a strange sense of passion

OH SHIT

-okay, this is a tight spot because LITERALLY NO ONE IN OR OUTSIDE THE SHOW KNOW HOW PINK DIAMOND WAS SHATTERED EXCEPT THE ORIGINAL CRYSTAL GEMS, A FEW HOMEWORLD WITNESSES AND THE CREWNIVERSE (probably)

-I DON’T KNOW and yes thank you BD I was curious about that too, although not quite as angry

-BUT STEVEN DOESN’T KNOW

-HE CAN’T ANSWER??

-I HAVE THE VIDEO ON PAUSE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT

-GOD STEVEN NO

-THIS IS GOING DOWNHILL

Freaking Blue Zircon

And Yellow Pearl

-BUT SERIOUSLY I’D RATHER YOU TRIED TO EXPLAIN YOUR SON-MOM THING THAN THIS

-GOD NO PLEASE

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

-I SHOULDN’T HAVE STARTED WATCHING THIS IN THE LIBRARY. I WANT TO LAUGH REALLY HARD BUT I CAN’T. AND I CAN’T STOP WATCHING.

-”IT WAS A SWORD!”

HOLY FUCK CHILL

-FIRST TIME WE HEARD HER RAISE HER VOICE

-DID BD WITNESS IT

-DID SHE TRY TO CONFIRM STEVEN’S IDENTITY WITH THAT QUESTION

-WHAT THE FUCK

I love how YD’s just sitting there like “yep, this again.”

o shit Blue Diamond has onion powers

-THE ONION FAMILY IS RELATED TO HOMEWORLD!!1!

best face 10/10

See?! You can draw with curves!!

Okay?

-Maybe her powers are related to emotion??

-Or this just happens with Diamonds???

“You... shattered.. her... with a sword...”

-oh god

-OKAY I CALLED IT, I WAS GONNA CRY AFTER ALL

-(ON THE INSIDE)

-Recess time!! Yay!

-”Don’t tumble my rocks!”

-oooOHHHH we’re getting on to something here

-HER PALANQUIN TELEPORTS. WHAT NEXT, HER HOODIE?

fuckin’ Ace Attorney shit goin’ down

Something went wrong with the frame here; Blue Zircon seems to have teleported as well as the screen lurching and the whole ventriloquist stuff again.

-Okay, maybe the episodes were produced in a hurry, or maybe it’s just that the guy who uploaded this on Youtube had some minor glitches in the process.

-”The question no one’s been asking is, ‘how?’” “I’ve been asking that question.”

It’s like they’re having a dramatic argument at dinner

-But didn’t Rose Quartz like run off, start the rebellion and THEN shatter PD?

-Dunno Blue Zircon, I mean you’ve got some logic there, PD is probably too big for one Rose Quartz anyway, if you don’t mind fan theories do suggest that it was a fusion of all the main Crystal Gems.

-BLUE ZIRCON’S ON A ROLL

-I mean, the aforementioned giant fusion might’ve swept through all her soldiers, but if that was the case there’d be no eyewitnesses left??

-THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT UP, WTF HAPPENED TO PINK’S PEARL

S I L E N T G A S P

-”They saw the whole thing!” YES I GET THAT YELLOW DIAMOND BUT WERE THEY JUST SPECTATING AND WHERE ARE THEY NOW

-Yellow Diamond’s reactions are interesting. She either knows something they don’t or really hates this trial with all her being.

-Eyeball Ruby said she witnessed it??

le gasp intensifies

-mmmMMM THAT FISHY FISHY SMELL MMM

-”Wouldn’t her Pearl have cried out in alarm? *opera mode activate* wAAAAATCH OOOOUUUUT MYEIEIEIYYYYYYY DIAAAAMOOOONNNNDDDDUH”

-Maybe Rose Quartz (or the fan theory fusion) shapeshifted?

-(Can fusions shapeshift??)

-what

-THE CONSPIRACY INTENSIFIES

-oHHHH?!?

-DAAAYYUMMMMMMNNNN

-*DEDUCTION INTENSIFIES*

ZIRCON YOUR ARGUMENT IS PERFECTLY REASONABLE BUT I DON’T THINK ACCUSING YOUR LEADERS IN A DICTATORSHIP WORLD LIKE THAT WILL GET YOU OUT OF THIS IN ONE PIECE

-Blue Diamond: *GASP*

-Well at least things are interesting for her
