In the world of the Keystone State and Crater-Siberia, the American age of majority could be quite different.

It seems he can't exhale in that place, so it's unlikely that an air tank and regulator would even function.

Some of those lady pilots had their original footage used in Rogue One.

Does this mean Pink Diamond had an Agate we haven’t met yet? One who more than likely would have had some kind of relationship to Rose?

I've hunted around for the pink-spotted blue stone for ages, since I'm sure I've seen one before. The closest I've found is Ocean Jasper http://www.worldofjaspers.c… http://vignette3.wikia.noco…

Actually, Yellow Diamond offered Peridot a pick-up via ship. Following orders and letting the Cluster emerge would not have cost her life at all.

The benefits being the power increase, which has necessary practical applications that comes up for the Gems on the regular, and also intimacy, which Garnet tends to champion and…
