They're still together at the end, she just didn't want to get engaged with a fucking glowstick bracelet when Steven was clearly in some kind of psychological panic spiral.

>>149528990 (OP)
Steven is a manchild, no wonder everyone hates him

>>149528990 (OP)
Connie's mom is hotter anyway

KWAB Universe

>>149529022
Honestly i doubt that

>>149528990 (OP)
So what the hell was this special for?
It only ended up butchering Steven's character more
He didn't go on more adventures, he just got "trauma" and shit

>>149529141
If you doubt it, you're a fucking idiot who has no idea how to follow stories, even basic bitch ones from children's TV shows. I bet you'd furrow your brow in troglodyte like confusion while watching Bluey.

>>149529022
Honestly she looked ready for him to jump her bones right there up until "live as Stevonnie," because no one in his Gem-centric upbringing explained to him how human marriage works.

>>149529245
I usually come into these threads to shit talk you faggots for liking this shit but I don't want to think the gay pozzed show for lesbians could have ever gotten that gay and pozzed that the male main character wanted to live as a troon by fusing his personality with a woman. That's some fucking Ed Gein tier insanity please tell me you're lying.

>>149529022
Honestly

>>149529245
He understands how human marriage works. He wanted to live as Stevonnie because he's depressed and unsatisfied with his own life and thinks fusing with Connie will fix that since he'll get to experience her emotions

>>149529390
I guess thats one way of looking at it though to be fair its presented in-universe as something he's only doing because of his extremely poor psychological state and is immediately shut down

The issue was that they were both like 16

>>149529927
>inb4 all the replies talking about how teen marriage was totally normal 50 years ago and that it's the woke lefts fault that they're still virgins at 30

>>149528990 (OP)
he still has a chance with her, unlike what happened to Lars

>>149529960
God that episode was painful, what was with the sudden hate boner for Lars that forced him into getting cucked?

>>149528990 (OP)
As someone who watched this show all the way through and was very invested in this relationship, it pissed me off that we never get to see Steven and Connie be an actual couple really

They spend most of the show as "just friends" with obvious romantic tension and usually when shows have two characters like that there'll be the scene where they upgrade their relationship by having them kiss or exchange "I love you" at a dramatic moment like pic related. And then after that happens they'll be dating but that doesn't really happen here

Connie kisses him on the cheek in the Movie, yeah. But even after this in Future it's sort of unclear if they're actually boyfriend and girlfriend now? Until they kiss totally unceremoniously in the FInale

I guess it's not really needed but still kinda disappointing imo

>>149530163
I'm sure it has something to do with Rebecca's weird feminist views. Can't have Steven be the man in the relationship I guess.

>>149528990 (OP)
I couldn't finish future. It reads like when someone on deviantart tries making a "grown up" fanfiction of a series and it immediately turns into to car crashes, lawsuits, cheating and abortions because the person writing it is like 18.

>>149530227
Future is 10 episodes of Steven being a fucking cunt to everyone around him and then crying about it.

>>149529960
>>149529972
Well Lars is probably gonna fuck a bunch of hot gem babes in his spin-off show anyway so who's the real winner?

>>149530194
Have them be in a heterosexual relationship but make it explicit that Connie pegs him so it evens out

]>>149530227
>>149530252
These are both perfect ways to describe it

>>149530294

>>149530294

>>149529390
based

>>149528990 (OP)
She couldn't marry him because she had already married Greg

Them fusing togethor would be the only realistic way to prevent Steven eventually having to watch Connie wither away and get put six feet under.

>>149532080
Now they're both gonna be half-a feet under th sheets

>>149529676
It's because one of his adopted mom's is two lesbians fused together.

>>149529927
18 because she was getting ready to head to college.
>>149529943
It is, though I'm not a virgin. Got mad when I brought that up in this same thread when it was posted yesterday, huh?

>>149529972
Can't have a cool straight guy, especially one that gets with women.

>>149530227
Did you at least see the Vegeta esque training session with Jasper?

The evolution of Connie's adult artwork (be it NSFW or SFW aged-up comics) as the series progressed is quite a roller coaster

>Connie introduced
Either just a ugly punchline to a joke, or cutesy art

>her mom is introduced
Connie gets cucked/mogged by her mom, who continues to be a focal point of adult art for the show from then on

>Stevonnie happens
They both suffer from existential nightmares because Connie's mom or Steven's bullies keep fucking Stevonnie

>she starts training to be a swordswoman
Steven and Connie are a devoted happy hippie couple with wholesome sex and enjoy working out together. Also a vast increase in ConnieXPearl art

>Greg gets rich
Connie starts cucking Steven with his dad because he treats her and her mom like prostitutes

>Peridot joins the gang
Connie is cucked by the new short gem sleeping in Steven's bed

>Steven ages up to be taller than her
Steven and Connie are a devoted happy older teen couple fumbling around for the first time

>Steven is shown to be able to raise the dead and Pink Diamond was a bitch
Connie becomes a brainwashed zombie slave

>Spinel introduced
Connie is cucked by the new short gem in Steven's house

>brief moment of Evil Steven
Connie is abused by a narcissistic cheating asshole, and she needs anyone to come save her

>Steven proposes to Connie
Connie becomes a slut in college who needs to ride as many dicks as possible to get over the shock of a childhood friend abruptly proposing to her

>>149532080
Why? He made Lars sorta immortal / unaging

I can't take this shit seriously because this is some fat kid in a shitty artstyle who used to sing about eating cat cream cookies

>>149530416
Connie's the bisexual girl who brings her straight boyfriend to pride and makes it clear "it's okay because I peg him"

>>149530294
Do his parents think he's dead?

>>149528990 (OP)
>>149530163
Steven's dick belongs to Jasper. I fucking dare you to look me in the eye and tell me you DON'T think they fucked while he was on the mountain training with her.

>>149532387
Every oversexualized character needs their R34 timeline studied as hard as you studied Connie's

>>149529022
Truth nuke. Not everybody wants to get married at 16 years old, much less semi-permanently fuse into one being to attend college as Steven proposed. And even after all that shit she doesn't even say no, she affirms that they know they're going to be together, she just says "not now" lol.

>>149532575
Yeah and they're celebrating

>>149528990 (OP)
Dunno man, I find kinda neat the fact that he had to learn a lesson from Lars about how time and distance can affect a couple.
In a way this is like a warning of what could happen to him in the future, so that last kiss could have meant more than just a "see you later".
Pretty mature if you ask me.
>B-but they were destined to be together niiieeehh!!!
Grow-up, bitch.

>>149532270
He didn't know that for most of his life and he's had tons of interactions with humans and he watches tv and reads books. And he knows that his parents were married but never fused.

>>149528990 (OP)
To be fair, it's more likely Connie will outgrow Steven just like Sadie did with Lars. Connie only wanted the perks/cool stuff Steven had, she never wanted to put in any work for the relationship. For once Sugar wrote what she knew since that's exactly the relationship she has with IanJQ along with mirroring a lot of her friend's mindsets too.

>>149532387
>Connie is abused by a narcissistic cheating asshole, and she needs anyone to come save her
This is the only one i've never seen an example of

Grim and dark one might say

>>149533911
>>149533977
No they'te too pussy to do something as mature as that. Steven and Connie will just get married when she finishes college and have 2 kids

>>149532080
No, Steven being half-human means that he'll die of old age too

>>149534293
Sauce?

>>149528990 (OP)
That's exactly the point. Just because you spent time and effort on someone doesn't mean they're obligated to fall in love with you. If you're offended by this scenario, it says more about you than it does about the show.

>>149534343
Sugar doesn't really like masculinity or heteronormative pairings. Just like Greg & Rose/PD, Connie will leave him for a selfish reason at best or at worst kill herself for some other bullshit reason to guilt Steven.

>>149534009

>>149534505
Doesn't that literally show his physical form is malleable and controlled more by his will

If he wasn't such a dumpy bitch he could be immortal

>>149534917
Nah, Connie cucks him with a transbian/non-binary bull. Steven goes back to being a sissy to clean up the sloppy seconds but she still leaves him for the new >girl at the end. Maybe he gets some cookie cats and the new crying friends game as a constellation prize.

>>149534968
He is immortal. He can give other people never ending life. No reason he isn't immortal himself already. We see in future when he becomes pink steven his ability to make his body its peak self which he logically over time could maintain forever.

>>149529032
>>149532890
Yeah the term for that is "stringing along". Her answer was "not yes" therefore their relationship is over. Steven is serious. Connie is playing games. Steven would be smart to just break it off and move on. He has a humungous amount of value as a man and is, clearly, wasting his time opining for his adolescent crush.

>>149528990 (OP)
Connie is a fucking terrible person and Steven deserves literally anyone the fuck else even Pearl

>>149534859
Yeah the anti natal agenda. Theyre very proud of the fact that they pressure girls to eschew relationships and procreation to instead go to college and get a career as a busy work agent in a corporation.

>>149532287
Wasn't Lars Filipino though? There was a whole episode about an Ube Cake.

>>149534524
Degenerategirl on baraag

>>149530227
I had a similar feeling where it felt like it was someone still in the middle of therapy. Like in that
>therapist is still validating all the bad shit that happened to you in life
phase and before the
>therapist starts challenging your coping/defense mechanisms and you work towards a place where you don't need external acknowledgement/validation of your pain to get over it
phase. It's extremely evident in the finale where it's framed as this touching exchange where all the characters "suddenly" have an epiphany on exactly how they had been wronging Steven and literally take turns apologizing to him. That's the delusional fantasy of someone just entering therapy and finally having someone agree that xyz things are wrong with their lives and wishing all of their friends and family could be as validating as the therapist paid to do that for the initial parts of therapy to build trust.

>>149530227
Its an edgy fanfic

>>149535862
Filipino's can't be straight?

I know it definitely makes sense if Steven is immortal but I just strongly feel like he shouldn't be because the whole reason Rose gave up her form to give birth to Steven was so that she could experience being a human and all the things that come with that, including death. I feel like its pointless if Steven is gonna live forever like a gem

>>149528990 (OP)
Why didn’t they just have him ask her to be his girlfriend? I mean even Steven would know marriage is a big step.

>>149532387
I've always really liked fanart of grown up Steven where he's a long haired hippie like his dad

>>149537871

>>149528990 (OP)
He spent that time on the wrong one. She would literally rather spend ALL of her time studying than enjoying her childhood. And she said she would marry him later but we know that's never going to happen.

I always knew Connie sucked and to this day don't understand why anyone liked her.

>>149535888
Now that's more like it

>>149538606
>He spent that time on the wrong one.
What other options does he have, exactly?

>>149538769
Like anyone on earth or in space? I don't get the question.

>>149528990 (OP)
It’s fucked up because she literally used him his entire childhood for her own entertainment and to feel special.

What is the in universe reason Stephen thinks he knows anything about love? We know the irl reason is because they want to shill this backwards ass bullshit and call it love to confuse kids, but what's the canon reason Steven thinks he knows shit about it?

>>149539163
He grew up around psycho dykes who lie to him

>>149539239
Yeah but did they even tell him anything about it? The only time he sees their bullshit fake love is when Garnet splits apart which only happens like twice for like three minutes at a time. Did he just think he knows everything about it from that? That's like briefly skimming the first result on goole and acting like an expert. Why do libs do that?

>>149539163
Probably his dad mixed a bit with Garnet's account on it/fusing

>>149529007
>>149528990 (OP)
It is a known fact that that ring is an allegory to touching tips.

>>149538769
Well Steven is basically space gem emperor so he could probably have any gem babe he pleases. Pretty sure plenty of human girls would also be all over a 'damaged' guy who can shapeshift and can sparkle if the Twilight craze has taught me anything. Thats ignoring the extra incentive of the guy also being able to heal most ailments and being able to make you near immortal

>>149539328
You think you know something till you put it in to practice. Generally speaking Steven never really had anyone "not" love him. Everyone loves him and everything he did or does is loveable. He now is realizing that love is a lot more complicated and complex and some things aren't lovable.

>>149537871
>>149538480

That's retarded. Connie literally picked sword training EXCLUSIVELY to protect Steven! She's stable and well put together too, she's the one person that didn't dump her problems onto Steven.
>>149529162
>>149530227
It exists to give closure to Steven's character and close off other characters too. It wasn't butchered, he showed these traits often in the original series. It got brushed aside or outright never addressed because the Gems' problems were the focus.

>>149528990 (OP)
He could have took her virginity, or at least got to second base right there on that beach and made her miss studytime. He was smooth as fuck and making her wet as fuck.
Instead he embraced insanity, impulsiveness over something important, the advice of lovesick aliens who’ve long forgotten and barely ever knew the mystery between seperate people and personalities, the desperate need to fill the void within him, and the search for self-worth in something exterior; and proposed as a 16-year-old. Grim.

This proposal was much more about himself and finding a solution for his own problems, that’s no way to start a life of love and partnership.
But the fact she didn’t cringe out and want a seperation after this, and started paying even more attention to his needs - helping him however she could by getting him medical attention, communicating with his family, checking in and worrying, and being the one that understood what he needed the most in the end and turning the tides towards getting him that - means she’s mega wife material and absolutely his soulmate. They are going to have so much roadtrip sex.

I remember people used to hate on Connie for wanting to use him for his magical life, but man I saw Indirect Kiss the other day, I forgot how eager and willing she was to be with him even under the prospect if him not being magical. And she never ditched Earth life to go chase magic and wonder in the cosmos. She values her earth life/going to college and wants Steven to remain a part of it

Rushing only ever comes from somewhere insecure or immature kids, don’t do it in love or in bed. Savor the slow steps of romance as you find your legs as people and partners until you’re both strong enough to build a home and life together. Build up makes everything better

>>149528990 (OP)
Marco and Star got together at the end of the show.

>>149542010

On a rewatch, SUF is a lot more funny than I remember, and with way more constistent art quality than the show. The heavy stuff was an appropriate evolution of emotional/human themes that was always a big part of SU. Centered around a sensitive kid that went through a lot of crazy shit, who was now an angsty teenager in the throes of puberty as his surging testosterone squared off with his magic love powers and strength of a God.

A lot of it was very relatable to anyone who was a teenager dealing with anger issues and the desire to assert their independence, while also wanting to remain a good person. The writing for a lot of characters was very down-to-earth, SU style.
I think a lot of the flak SUF got at the time comes from the same kind of confusion and sadness that comes from a cute and happy kid becoming a greasy sour teen that’s unpredictable, irrational, and a huge dick to you while you’re trying to be nice. And as always, too much humanity for people who just wanted to see magic waifus.

There’s more lore to be covered with this show and it was something they always wanted to continue, but as a show that centered around themes of Growth and Change, following up with the MC as he steps into what was inevitably going to be a chaotic and emo puberty was the right choice. Now that we’ve digested some meat, I think we’re in for the veggies and dessert of lore and magic with Lars of the Stars.

>>149534166
I also watn jasper to make you her bitch lol

>>149542417
Future is better than its haters remember. Everyone dunked on the original show for having zero art consistency but ignore when Future had pretty much consistent clean art pieces with the heights being less egregious.

>>149542648
Steven Universe was inconsistent
Steven Universe: Future was consistenly bad

>>149542678
Nah. It was funny and consistent with the original show's writing. Made Steven a way better character.

>>149543207
This show ruined Steven's character
He suddendly became a whiny manchild who gets PTSD out of nowhere and threats everyone like shit

>>149543207
For example, it was the only part of the series to poke fun of Lapis being a bitch in a tasteful way. Utilized her decently too.
>"They aren't nice like me!" -Lapis
>"Ummm." -Steven
>"Exactly." -Lapis

>>149543245
Steven was whiny as hell in the original series. His whinnies was more amusing this time since his anger was more potent and justified. And really? PTSD out of nowhere? Steven nearly died so much as a kid that he was forced to admit that he got used to it. He had actual character flaws in Future, he's the most interesting this character has ever been.

>>149543245
Everyone treated Steven like shit in the original series. He's owed a little bit of lashing out. Future's the only time Steven's issues were actually acknowledged than glossed over for plot.

>>149529245
>>149530870
>>149542010
I do want to see an alternate cut of this scene right after Steven serenades Connie on the beach where instead of the awkward proposal they just fuck

>>149541492
She cheated on steven with greg

>>149544238

>brown manlet gets rejected

>>149543245
The effects of PTSD aren't usually fully realized until after the threat is gone/war is over and the person tries to adjust to normal life. This is even explained in the show. Kid Steven always had a new threat to deal with. No time to think about how unsafe he's grown adjusted to feeling when he's still always unsafe. Defending himself and others against intense shit was a core part of his childhood development, of course he's a little fucked up.
He's a "whiny manchild" about it, because one of his core genetic/nurtured traits is emotional sensitivity and openness - which is what helped save him. It's what helped him build a wide and strong support system of people who are attentive to and care about him. And it's what helped alert them to the fact that he needed help. A lot of male PTSD victims will bottle shit up and eventually either destroy themselves, or others.

Also, he became a teenager. If you've ever had kids in your life or been a kid yourself, you should remember how drastic, depressing, and aggravating that change can be. It takes a while to adjust to the wider and uglier side of reality that you've gained the intelligence to more fully comprehend. The sweet ignorant joy of innocence doesn't last forever. It's only ruined if you consider growing up ruination.
Everything about his character in SUF is a natural development of his character in SU.

But the despair a teen feels often speaks to their purity. They just haven't grown strong enough yet to withstand the intensity and scope of what they realize. Still a baby deer trying to run from wolves on wobbly legs. But once your legs strengthen, you can climb mountains and see sights more beautiful than anything you saw in childhood.
I think adult Steven will be the chillest and most positive motherfucker in the universe. Once he's worked through his shit.

didn't Rebecca or someone hint we're getting a revival or sequel

>>149541848

Steven not being canonically being a bulky big boy going into late adolescence and adulthood will always suck. It would totally make sense so of course they just turn him into a flipflop jock.

>>149544798

>>149529960
Absolutely awful

>>149540706
That Faggot of Rebecca Sugar could perfectly make something like this canon.

>>149544815
We’re getting Lars of the Stars

>>149544925
Hopefully Sugar proves me wrong but I have a strong feeling its gonna be bad

>>149545139
I want it to be good, but Rebecca needs to drop the liberal bullshit next time. Focus on making a decent show and then do all your politics on Twitter like a normal person.

>>149545173
Unfortunately a lot of the fanbase comes for that stuff so she won't

>>149545139
I think she really cares and also probably knows this might be her last big thing. The diamond lore she and Ian have redacted on this timeline seems like it could be juicy - it’s at the core of everything, and can probably easily be expanded.

Despite online heckling from poltically charged nerds, I’ve seen a lot of reports of demand for SU on streaming services. They might have a pretty decent budget.

I just hope they include old characters that people already love and could use more development. This is your last chance to fix Peridot and Lapis and use Jasper’s potential, Sugar. Lots of characters who could be useful on the road and who might have personal reasons to want to know their species’ origin.

And I hope it’s in a similar vein to SUF - more “adult” than SU, but still fun - but with a heavier emphasis on gems, magic, wonder and exploration, as a final answer to the most common complaints with the show before

In both real life logic and the cartoon's explicit, upfront logic that was the entire point of the scene, Steven's POV was extremely compromised. He wasn't thinking clearly at all.
I remain concerned about your approach to relationships. You seem to be harboring a greatly limiting fear of them and women, clinging to a belief that all paths end in rejection, instead of considering that there's a right time for things that aren't when you're 16/having a breakdown/gave it a day's thought.
On the slim chance you aren't trolling, spend more time off of the internet with it's predatory algorithms that want the lonely to remain lonely and dependent on more algorithms, and spend more time with bros so you can begin to feel confident in being wanted

>>149528990 (OP)
>With you
Anon...
Did you seriously self-insert onto Steven Universe?
Really?
I mean, I know its /co/, but come on man.
You can do better.

>>149535862
I didn't say White, but since you've brought it up I also feel like that was a walkback so they wouldn't have a White guy in the main cast.

>>149547683
imagine not self inserting the hero KEK

>>149541538
This desu

>>149545440
What is this jacked up flowgraph?

>>149547752
To call Steven a hero is to diminish the very concept of heroism.
He's a protagonist, at best.
As a character, he is an immature, overly-emotional slob with next to no impulse control.
He embodies no virtue worth emulating or aspiring to.

>>149547569
I don't see the similarity other than the superficiality of being elemental powerhouses in skirts.

Fire Princess was meant to distract and soothe Finn's pain over his hopeless orbital pursuit of a oneitis, and to give him experience in love. And he messed it up by being horny and pushy in a world without human guidance on not being a horny weirdo. Kid probably had no idea what a wet dream even was.
Moral of the story is that if you're clueless about your urges, they'll urge you harder and harder to find release through less and less honorable pursuits, ruining things you value, and ruining innocence, like a runaway fire. Sex ed is important, and so are adult human mentors and role models of healthy relationships, instead of just a dog/cool older bro that has no intention of giving you A Talk outside of pushing you into cute lute suits and clapping on the sidelines.
Still, it would have been nice for him to grow more positively sooner after that. But I don't think the rest of the crew were prepared to follow up on Sugar's relationship deep-cuts.

Steven's thing with Lapis was pure and was meant to teach him more about gems, moral complexity, and people who resist help, not relationships. He was secure in his puppy-love thing with Connie and had no love woes to soothe or confidence with women to regain.

she was going off to college. she didn't want to have to worry about also maintaining a marriage. either that, or she wanted to get railed by random dudes at the college.

OP didn't watch the show, it's implied that steven will eventually return from his faggot country tour and marry Connie.
That's what the "not yet" meant.

Cucks. If a girl doesn't want to marry and have your children by the second date it's literally over.

>>149545496
it's a glowstick, referencing to the first time steven and connie meet

>>149547945
these idiots think that just because it wasn't showed on screen it doesn't happened.

>>149545440
>Lapis mirror found 40 years ago
I figured since Pearl was in her 80s outfit, but they really never checked the galaxy warp until then?
Was something blocking them? Or did Rose start to get the idea that she should go check the locks on all the doors before she dipped out?

>>149547752
Sugar hates male protags/heroes though. She inserts as the female characters and always subverts any male character she gsts her hands on. Unless you're a tranny or a woman, inserting as Steven or any male Sugar has control over is a guaranteed self-cucking catastrophe.

>>149548215
She hates male characters so much some of the most important characters in steven universe are male
(steven, greg, lars,lion)

>>149539441
well yeah its a cockring.

>>149548215
>hates
>subverts
She's trying to extend an olive branch across the genders by thinking of males as people with feelings that can be empathized with. Giving them central roles in her feminine story of emotion helps girls see men as containing emotion and being capable of understanding them, and helps boys see women as containing personality and being capable of accepting them. Trying to humanize the perspective of both and connect over the commonalities in our gooey insides beneath the masks

But yes, reacting to an outreached hand like it's an attack is definitely masculine of you, good job, nothing will get past your defenses sir strong knight

>>149547573
Not going to happen.
>>149546963
That's literally a screencap from the show, retard.

>>149544922
Sugar could be sitting on one picture of this right now to make it canon, like that one Amethyst and Sadie picture

>>149535079
>Steven goes back to being a sissy
What happens to Steven then?

>>149535765
>16 year old doesn't want to get married
>"stringing along"
I hope you die alone

>>149528990 (OP)
You didn't watch the show

>>149549973
>Future Steven x Pink Steven

>>149529245
Steven Universe, master of scaring the hoes

>Steven PTSD out of nowhere
I get that, as always, the show portrayed the issue unnecessarily drammatically, but there were times in the OG show where Steven was left severely scarred and that were never adressed by him or anyone to talk about it, Aquamarine and pic rel come to mind. While Future could've dealt with it more organically (pun intended), I think it was a good evolution for the series. Actually, it needed like 5 more episodes and to adjust that terrible 4 parter finale

>>149551267
Stevens trauma make more sense when you realize he was esenssialy a kid for all of the original
Like of course a kid is going to complain less than an angry teen,

>>149551267
>Aquamarine
my favourite villain, somehow neither the fans nor the author could see how much of a great nemesis she could be to Steven. No trauma, no issues, no WD autism, nothing Steven could talk her out from, she was just a career climber enjoying her status so much and would've done anything to get everything back. Then they took the wand and nerfed her with Eyeball, who was also a legit treat since she was dumb but crazy and just as power hungry as Aqua

>>149547945
Steven deciding to leave Beach City in the Finale felt like a really forced ending. It doesn't feel like a natural conclusion to his arc at all.

>>149549685
>like that one Amethyst and Sadie picture
Huh?

>>149553043
Actually, there are two. Here's one.

And the other one.

>>149553164
>>149553177
Its funny that Rebecca Sugar draws insane crackship art of her own characters

>>149528990 (OP)
Proposing with a dog collar mist have been coming off a little strong.

>>149553470
kek someone should make that edit

>>149547823
why else would he forgive space nazis

bump

>>149529960
Men bad.
Non-binary lesbians hot.

>>149554989
Y'know there's actually no evidence that Sadie is a lesbian. Shep is probably AMAB and has a dick still

>>149548741
She's also the kind of person who thinks men are incapable of writing women. >>149548215 is right because Sugar is a man hating feminist who hasn't actually taken the time and refuses to take the time to actually understand men. She puts the blame on men and doesn't make any of the women at fault when they are part of the problem as well.

>>149552647
He got kicked out for being annoying

>>149553470
I thought it was a cock ring.

>>149528990 (OP)
Protip: Not everyone ends up with their first crush

>>149555919
Yeah but this a cartoon, so of course he does

>>149547920
>she didn't want to have to worry about also maintaining a marriage.
Being in a marriage isn't a job or requires you to know brain surgery. Most marriages fail once kids and money start to get involved.

>>149534536
Where do I find it without a pay wall?

>>149555946
There are gay people in this cartoon, allegories of sexual abuse, abandonment issues, and some characters even die. It's not all sunshine and rainbows enough for this to be guaranteed

>>149528990 (OP)
>We know Connie is getting railed by all kind of cocks in college while Steven carries a chastity cage (She won't marry him even after all that)

>>149534536
They pretty much established that Connie was in love with him. The real issue is that it's taken to an extreme which just makes the moral look like Steven is super hard in the wrong and Connie to be a cunt. Steven proposal is jumping the gun a bit but her reaction makes it seem like he just murdered a baby and is eating it. It gives off the wrong impression of someome not being ready for a serious commitment, specially after everything that has happened, is a shallow bitch and that Steven's feelings are insane and expressing such feelings are wrong.

>>149556086
Connie's reaction is pretty chill all things considered. Her boyfriend asked her to fuse with him permanently so that he could follow her to college and she's not even really mad at him for it despite how he clearly doesn't respect her boundaries.

>>149555980
Yeah but even the most mature media features extremely idealistic depictions of romance

>>149555120
I want to know how progressive Delmarva is in this show, since the Delmarva I know if full of poor whites, poor blacks, some Latinos and very few people who look like Shep in some university areas.

>>149552123
She's too hardcore, she needed to be brought down a peg since she's out of place and can't naturally fit in the show's direction outside of a one time shock. Trying to have this random gem be a massive threat just doesn't really work since the show scaled past them already.

>>149552647
Yes, it was a natural conclusion. I get it, you didn't care to pay much attention to Steven's character. But a big part of him since Season 1 was some sort of normalcy and a chance to find himself. He never really achieved that, the most he got was "he's not his mom" but his entire place in the world was always helping and helping but never helping himself. Steven getting some alone time to figure out a healthy future/hobby than "MAKE EVERYONE'S PROBLEMS MY OWN PROBLEM" just makes sense. He was far too defined by Beach City unlike every other Beach City citizen who lived and knows about the world at large,

>>149556086
How the fuck was Connie a shallow bitch? Are you stupid? She was just shocked by the abrupt random proposal like everyone would be. Her dialogue was more mellow than lots of people would be in her shoes and she didn't act like a cunt in the slightest. She showed love to him and said "not now" not even a no. You greatly undersell how sweet Connie is to Steven just to overreact, pay attention.

>>149550722
She was definitely expecting to get fucked right there and then if Steven didn’t go full retard with the proposal.

>>149558384
>>149544074

>>149528990 (OP)
She was hoping to get fucked,not married before they are even legal. They're still together

>>149528990 (OP)
She wanted to marry Greg, please understand.

>>149530163
LARS AND SADIE got a "big damn kiss" but Steven and Connie didn't

>>149559064
This kiss was so horny and desperate, Sugar did a great job on that.

>>149529960
>They said they tried to make it work when Lars come back but it simply didn't and they grew apart off screen.
>In that short time saddie went from liking lars, trying to make it work but failing to dating a random mystery meat
Man what the hell.
