Rose "gave up her physical form" to create Steven, leaving behind only her pink, pentagonal-faceted gem, now embedded in his navel.
As a gem, Rose Quartz couldn't have a child with her human partner in a traditional sense and ultimately had to give up her physical form for Steven to be born.
Rose eventually developed a romantic relationship with a human, Greg Universe, before giving up her physical form to give birth to their son, Steven, who inherited her gemstone. She now is half of Steven.
According to Garnet, he is a "fusion of love." While she knew they couldn't exist at the same time and thus never got to meet her son, Rose cherished Steven even before his birth, showing nothing but pride and happiness for the kind of person he would become. According to her, she couldn't wait for him to join them.
Yes, Pearl loved Rose deeply, and Steven's presence is a constant reminder that Rose didn't love her in quite the same way.
According to Vrai Kaiser of The Mary Sue, Pearl deals with severe unresolved grief, coupled with deep-seated issues with self-worth, resulting in her falling prey to "powerful, impulsive emotions" whenever Rose is mentioned. Naith Payton of PinkNews described Pearl's devotion to Rose as "unhealthy and obsessive".
The crewniverse have said that Rose shapeshifted a womb for Steven. Nothing more, nothing less. Any other explanation on how Steven was created is up to your discretion and imagination.
However in "A Single Pale Rose", Rose Quartz was actually revealed to be Pink Diamond and it's also revealed that her shattering was fake the entire time in order to stop Earth's colonization one final time after Blue and Yellow Diamond would not let her abandon the colony.
Rose loves humans—banging humans — thus, Rose starts an intergalactic war so she could bang more humans.
His magical gem properties keep him from aging normally. It was shown in the season 5 finale that if his gem was taken out, he would become extremely weak until he could be reunited with his pink aura. In the movie he was getting very sick and his gem was losing it's glow, causing Steven to be on the brink of death.
The Pink Steven is actually just pure essence of Pink's power so basically no matter what defense or attack he does it focuses up to the full power of a diamond. This idea is supported by seeing Pink Steven radiating his aura.
There are dozens of examples in the show that hint at the idea that Rose Quartz wasn't exactly a great role model, least of which was the revelation that she was actually Pink Diamond, one of four evil space queens whose imperial motives terraformed thousands of planets across the galaxy, but even as Steven learned ...
Initially, I thought Amethyst had repressed romantic feelings towards Greg and was slightly jealous of Rose's and Greg's relationship, but I see now that this isn't the case. Pearl said that Amethyst and Greg would be gone for days. This would indicate that Amethyst and Greg were really close at one point in time.
Steven's gem glows when he's comfortable and surrounded by his family's love, just like in the first episode. Amethyst shapeshifts into a baby, something she does again in "So Many Birthdays". We see Buck and Jenny as kids, playing in the snow.
Rose may have bubbled Bismuth, but it was because of the Breaking Point (although she should have explained to the other Crystal Gems why she did it). Despite lying about her origin, Rose did start the rebellion against home world, one that ultimately led to the relative peace we now have in Steven Universe Future.
The Rose Quartz who mistreated Pearl and lied to the other Gems learned to be honest and respectful with Greg. Like every Gem, Pink Diamond was born to her purpose-- to be an abusive despot. Gems change, but they do so at a geologic pace.
He is the first and only known Gem–human hybrid, the product of the union between the Crystal Gems' original leader, Rose Quartz, and Greg Universe, a human musician and car-wash owner. Rose "gave up her physical form" to create Steven, leaving behind only her pink, pentagonal-faceted gem, now embedded in his navel.
It hurt Pearl's psyche, knowing this giant truth she was physically incapable of sharing. Perhaps Rose's motives were pure at the start, but she used the Crystal Gems to free herself from a life she never wanted, and she almost used Pearl up in the process. It was an unforgivable thing to do to someone she loved.
Steven remembers she's not his real mom, she's just been acting how he wants her. He doesn't even know if this is how she really is. He'd learned things about her, how she wants to keep things secret, like how she locked Bismuth away (due to her wish to shatter gems) without telling Pearl or Garnet.
As stated by Steven in "Now We're Only Falling Apart", Pink Diamond reformed permanently as Rose Quartz after she was poofed during her fake shattering making Rose her true "default" form.
Pearl love Rose and was jealous at Greg because she see him as her rival. In The Message, After Greg fails to get Wailing Stone work, She disrespected him and say "What a waste of time" and she didn't even say thank you to Greg after he finally get Wailing Stone work! I wonder if she will be not sad that Greg dies!
The evaluation also indicated that Pearl had a low IQ and no education beyond the 8th grade. In addition, she had been diagnosed with a litany of mental health disorders, including depression, eating disorders, developmental disability, PTSD, and possible personality disorder.
How is Pearl's name symbolic in The Scarlet Letter? Pearl's name is symbolic in two ways: cost and nature. Hester chooses the name because the child came at a great cost. Pearls are expensive, but they are also formed in nature.
Yes, she did love Rose romantically. She was actually jealous of Greg when she realised Rose was in love with him.
