Thanks for waiting! I messed up my back, and wasn't sure if I'd be able to get this episode out on time... but I made it!










Thanks for tuning in! See you next time for some much-needed EXPLANATIONS! :D
im pretty sure it was steven using his mind-tech powers!! he probably sent it without meaning to

I really like the way you explained non-deterministic future vision here! Even SU proper didn't really go past the vague river metaphor when explaining it.

I wonder who sent her the text message? I know I would have if given the chance.
Also, I hope your back is feeling better. Appreciate the effort to push through to post but I do hope you're also resting and taking it easy 🙏🏾. But again thank you for the update!

This is sorta tangential but especially with Sapphire's equation explanation at the beach in Future, my understanding was always that Future Vision was basically an incredibly complex calculation, rather than actually "seeing timelines" or anything like that. Sapphire would run through all the information available, factoring in a bunch of details too small for most people to notice, and predictively generate the one future that seems most probable; Garnet's is expanded by Ruby's understanding of emotional impulsivity, so she sees probability distributions based on decision-making. But both of them can be caught off guard because while their future vision is ridiculously perceptive, it's still limited to building off details Garnet could theoretically know, and the probabilities given are subject to her biases (such as writing off possible Steven decisions that turned out to be high-probability because she didn't think he had grown enough to make those choices).

Called it! I also love how Garnet’s growth arc re. humans is mirroring Rose!

Like I said before why wouldn’t they want to move away? Ever since allowing Connie to associate with Beach City bad things keep happening. True the events unfolding have nothing to do with her in the town but it’s a negative association. It’s better in their minds to move away from the negativity and start fresh somewheres possibly a little less destroyed or maybe more as those areas might need more doctors on a common enough basis to necessitate permanent residence. Point is that whatever reason they have is very valid

Oh no! I hope this doesn't happen. Also, I'm curious to see what did Steven send.

Don't suppose she's moving near another warp pad... :(

You know, I had a theory at some point that Steven had a tech-interfacing/data-reading power. I wonder if maybe he accidentally sent that message that he was talking about without typing it?

I feel like we are at the beginning of season 5 of SU classic

I expected something, but that expectation wasn’t this. This is far worse than what I could’ve expected, god damnit now I feel like Garnet
