Steven Universe Shaded Tea Room

Maximum Capacity

HAPPY NEW YEAR'S!!! Fuck you 2016.

Okay Maximum Capacity...

We are shown the relationship between Amethyst and Greg. I guess she harbors some resentment towards Greg because of what happened with Rose, but it wasn't as bad as what was between Greg and Pearl. 

The episode starts Greg and Steven are walking with a cardboard cut-out of Greg advertising summer waxing. They open up Greg's U-Stor , when stuff falls out. Greg is prompted to make a New Years resolution to organize the storage unit. Steven then brings Amethyst over to try and clean it up. She suggests that a system be made to separate the trash from the garbage, so Steven creates boxes for items to keep, sell, and burn. Amethyst and Greg gets distracted by a show they both watched together, before Steven was born. They watched it all night, because Steven leaves and comes back with hash browns from the fry shop. They are still watching and Greg misses the fireworks. Else where, Pearl and Garnet are participating in the city's New Year tradition with Steven. Both Pearl and Garnet are shocked to hear this and explain that both Amethyst and Greg would disappear for days to Lil' Butler and that one day, they just stopped. 

Greg realizes that he's missing the fireworks, and Amethyst tries to convince him to stay and watch more episodes.Amethyst shapeshifts into Steven as she tries to convince him to stay. Greg gets annoyed at her shapeshifting. Amethyst tries to cheer him up by shapeshifting into Greg. They begin to argue. Greg gets angry at her and yells at her, saying that he can't stay and humor her, and that he wants to see the fireworks with Steven. Amethyst becomes mad, changes back, and brings up how she had someone that used to be there for her until she started hanging out with Greg. Amethyst bets Greg that he would stay for her and shapeshifts into Rose, which makes him turn away in despair. Steven steps in, telling them to stop and let go of the past. Suddenly the TV screen becomes all static and Steven begins questioning Greg and Amethyst. Feeling guilty, Amethyst then runs off. The next day, the unit is cleaned by Pearl and Amethyst apologized by giving Greg a new frame for the picture of him and Rose. 

This episode showed a lot. Like how easily a person can stray from a resolution, which is why I never make any. I never see the point.  BUT it also shows that the past is the past for a reason and why you should look to the future. To quote the Lion King "The past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it.~ Rafiki". Amethyst and Greg ran, because they both lost Rose, and well, They took to different paths. Greg moved on, but Amethyst,sort of like Pearl, hung onto. This is what they needed. And also I really want to know why Greg is so uncomfortable  when it comes to shape shifting. 

Do you guys have any New Year's resolutions? If so feel free to leave in the comments.....Just don't be talking about that NEWYEARNEWME bullshit.
