I feel like this is totally a nightmare Steven would have. We all know that Pink’s memory comes through in Steven’s dreams, so it would make sense for Pink’s regrets to come through. That would be the beginning. Then it shows how Steven used to think he was only made to deal with her problems, by having her turn into Steven just as everything got stressful. And then it shows Steven scared that he had to deal with it all.

[@eaglefan2569]

Not gonna lie, I'm absolutely in love with this. This is absolutely a nightmare Steven would have. Because it's something that's been haunting him the entire show, that he's always blamed for Pink's and Rose's mistakes. Even the Crystal Gems, who know better, tend to do it. Blue, Yellow, and White call him Pink (in White's case, her nickname for Pink) and don't even acknowledge his wishes to be called Steven or even his explanation that he's *not* his mom. Yellow blamed Steven for the corrupted gems due to the war situation and Blue kept saying that "Pink had been punished enough". And White even blamed the "game" on Steven indirectly. Pearl compares Steven to Rose/Pink a lot, especially in Rose's Scabbard and Sworn to the Sword. She doesn't mean to say these thoughts generally but she does subconsciously compare them. Garnet thought Steven was still Rose when he was a baby. And while she doesn't make the comparison often it's often in more subtle ways (like letting him take the lead, like Rose once did). Amethyst also doesn't make the comparison often but she almost seems to project the relationship she had with Rose onto Steven, which is why she's usually having fun with him and hanging around him a lot. And now with the revelation that Rose is Pink, it has to have crossed her mind that she was created by them and made the connection with Steven to his current abilities. Bismuth of course directly called him Rose before being explained everything. The thing is, Steven's voiced this fear multiple times, but the first time he put it into actual words was Joy Ride. Since then this doubt's only grown as he's learned more about Rose/Pink, and I mean, he even confronted a fake Rose in Storm In The Room and even said he was "made so she could hide from the mess she made". He's even still upset about it in Reunited and Legs From Here To Homeworld. And he's never told this fear to anyone (Connie only caught a glimpse of it when they were fused as Stevonnie in Mindful Education). That fear's only gonna bubble up until he can't keep it hidden anymore. Great job on the animatic!

[@octopleb9370]

Ghost Senpai honestly, this comment game me the feels for some reason. Someone get the poor kid some help.

[@Garzis33]

After the season finale, I think all of steven's identity problems were finally resolved, I'm happy for him

[@eaglefan2569]

@@Garzis33 Yeah, hopefully! ...Though I don't think all of his identity issues are... fully solved. His identity issues relating to if he were his own person were definitely solved, but now that he can say with absolute certainty that he is himself, it then begs the question on what he wants to make from his own identity... If he wants to follow the previous reasons he'd been fighting ("I will fight to be everything that everybody wants me to be when I'm grown"), or if he wants to start doing things for himself. Also, I do have to wonder... now he no longer has to fear if he's his mom, but... the reality of Pink Steven (and his gem's full capabilities) would be quite... daunting, if not a bit unnerving. Steven was definitely upset about what Pink Steven was doing for the *_short_* time they were separated; even though he was *_literally dying_* it hurt Steven that Pink Steven was hurting the others with no holds barred. It must be somewhere on his mind that that potential is still there... that unrefined power that was strong enough to knock the Diamonds, the Crystal Gems, and White/Pink Pearl off her feet. To be fairly honest, I think he went from one unvoiced, hidden fear at the back of his mind (being his mom) to a new one (his potential to either be a source of great peace and healing, or a source of great chaos and destruction). It also must be a *_bit_* scary to think that there's a side of him that lacks all of his emotions, all of his empathy, all of his attachments, and has a seemingly unending well of power. And that it's a part of him, and that power, when uncontrolled, can do some pretty bad things. Well, that, and that that "other" side of him can be taken out of him with relative ease if they manage to pin him down. ...Yeah, I don't think Steven's demons are *_quite_* gone. I'd be earnestly surprised if he wasn't at least a bit fearful of that potential. If it were his mom, at least it would be someone that *_knows_* those powers and has *_emotions_* and *_attachments_* and doesn't hurt anyone without reason. But Pink Steven has *_none_* of those and *_buttloads_* of power. That's gotta be a little nervewracking to know that all of that exists in you, and you can't control it, and just hope it doesn't do anything serious.

I think it fits her, mostly the part that says "Was it fun? Well I hope you had a blast while you drag me along" bc Pink had that personality of thinking that 'it's all a game' and she dragged Pearl through all the revolution only to abandon her for a human (or several ones)

This concept is really beautiful and displays how Steven has to deal with Roses past mistakes now that she's gone. you also portrayed the characters perfectly in this! I love the transition between Rose/Pink to Steven, it reminds me how people rely on him too much and forget he's just a kid and how he's expected to live up to Roses legacy and all. I'm rambling - but TL;DR: this was great! And it showed the different elements of the show very well! Btw I love how her form changes from how she's viewed, like with the diamonds she was Pink but when Pearl and the CG starts singing she changes to Rose

[@wiibrockster]

I feel like this isn't just Steven realising he has to carry his mothers burdens and fix her mistakes but it's also Pink Diamond realising that her actions have had a major impact on everybody around her,from Blue and Yellow Diamond who she left behind,Bismuth who she bubbled and left behind all the way to Pearl,having to keep the secret they shared.

The composition and transition between scenes could have been smoother. However, this still brilliant! Simply, brilliant! Like I never thought of it but Pink Diamond and Evan Hansen are very similar... they didn't mean any real harm, but because of their selfishness they did hurt a lot of people, so this song does fit Pink Dimaond nicely.

[@thesoradog]

Great ideas really! This song fits in an amazing way with this peculiar part of Steven Universe. The first verse is amazing with both diamonds, but I think my favorite phrase links are "crush them and leave them behind" from Bismuth, "All those words that I can't take back" from Steven since he feels responsible for all Rose said since he's her, but he's not REALLY her either and not having her memories, trying to fix her lies sound hypocritical. Though I really like your intake on Pearl covering her mouth, words that I can't take back going in the direction of "I made Pearl spill the secret and thus everyone feels betrayed". Another favorite, "I'll just sit back while you run the show", as Rose literally led everyone in that war and they were all left out of it (except Pearl). Though, I would've seen the first part of second verse more as an Amethyst line. She's more of the blunt type, and the one who is mostly concerned about what she left behind, instead of what she did to her. I see the "slightly sorry" and "might be wrong" more as a "do you realize what you left upon Steven's shoulders, leaving him with no clue as to what to do with the mess you've created?". The "Was it fun" part would serve as an "you didn't even take responsibility for what you did and reaped the great things, now you drag us in your shadow with all the crap you created". I understand how Pearl could say these lines, but I believe her feelings towards this situation are milder, as she had way more time to cope with it, and she has a tendency to criticize herself more than Rose when it comes to her. But seriously, great job! There are great ideas in that, and the execution was nicely done as well =)

[@thesoradog]

Oh, I almost forgot "Got a taste of a life so perfect, now you say that you're someone new"... this is just amazing with that context, especially for the diamonds who just got to meet pink back after an eternity, and get to realize she's a boy with none of her memories, and realized Pink diteched them for Earth and then disappeared forever.

It is an absolute favourite - on my list of course :D I can totally imagine something like that happening in the series - I mean we all know that Steven has his limits and will probably still feel guilty about everything. I love how you built up the characters and their dialogues - everybody said the right thing in the right time and not just once I forgot that sometimes I am listening to one singer not the two or more characters who were on the screen. Stay talented and inspired: after this, people will want more animations from you :) Congrats and thank you for letting the word see your art.

This amazing. Great animation and the song is great for this. However, it got me thinking even more for the Steven universe. I feel even more bad amd sad for Steven as he is left with the weight that his mother left him. After all he is his mother to a point or so. To me this just shows me that Steven, who had carry the burden for so long and not fully let it show it bother him or anything, has finally had the weight/burden out by a dearm/fear of everyone going after him for what his mother has done and in the end fears that his fate would be him truly being shatter by the ones he love and known.
