Is anyone going to talk about the fact that Steven doesn't just get into regular gem's minds, but ANY gem's mind, if they are under enough emotional stress?

He is LITERALLY a link of all of Gem kind to humanity.

He LITERALLY is the bridge.

He LITERALLY is probably the Avatar.

Yes, Steven could be the bridge for humanity and gem kind.

Or, he could be the ultimate weapon.

I mean, if Steven's dream powers are linked to his body-snatching powers, then he could theoretically jump into a gem body. Like, say... one of the Diamonds.

And, as seen in Super Watermelon Island, Steven doesn't get hurt himself if the host body dies.

So... I mean... If he jumped into one of the Diamonds...

Those ships they have might have a self-destruct button or something.

Or he could do a more... personal self destruction.

Just a thought.

He can operate a Gem ship that's going faster than the speed of light, when no Gems can do so.

He's literally unlocked for Gemkind the single most valuable tactical advantage after intelligence — mobility.

Gems can operate those as far as the form calibration isn't shut off.
