Bismuth… heh. Should have known I’d be asked about her. I loved Bismuth. In the old days of the war she was one of my closest comrades. I admired her and adored her. Not as much as I adored Rose, but, close, in a different way. Bismuth was a peer, a friend, an equal. We fought together, and we celebrated together. She was larger than life. She had a big temper, and a big sense of joy, and she was driven, and she was furious, and she was intense. 

Bismuth was like a fire. I miss her a lot.

Homeworld rubies…. yes, they’re pretty much like they’re portrayed on the show. They’re all fight and no common sense. They really are kind of adorable.

The other Gems, really are a lot like they’re shown in canon, as I remember. Garnet is cool and collected and balanced, and Amethyst is chaotic and wild, and honestly, funny.

They did look a little different than the show, though the show does a good job of portraying us all. Its hard to show just the kind of uncanny, inhuman look that we had, however.
