Yes to all of this. And also awwww, Connie. Gawd, her CR with Connie is one of the one's I'm most afraid for if I canon update her.

Rofl, Connie has totally earned "hair brushing" privileges by now. Welcome to the coveted inner circle. XDXD

[connie_maheswaran]

Connie is very fond of her Yang, and will share her pain at losing most of the people from her world (that she knew anyway).

Yes, sad times for Connie is never far behind. Le sigh.

Woo hoo!

[nailed_it]

Connie, you are too good for this planet. 8'D

Idk if you'd be up for hand-waving or establishing it, but I really love the idea that Yang and Connie have been sparring and/or practicing regularly together ever since that post you made where they sparred? Yang'd be more than happy to help Connie keep her skills up because honestly, she needs to do that herself. And Connie's powers really keep her on her toes in a fight.

[connie_maheswaran]

Tell that to Malachite>:(

Oh I have no problem with that! Weiss trained Connie at first but I never got to establish how long they trained. With Yang being the last of their group, along with Connie needing a sparring partner and big sister, this would be good for both of them!

[nailed_it]

She totally would. Yang sticks up for her friends. >8\

And awesome! Yeah, it's funny because Yang's starting to realize that without her Aura, she seriously has to re-think parts of her fighting style because she can't just tank certain hits anymore. I may yet give her some of the protective aspect of her Aura back as a power if I can (since all Gems heal fast anyway), although at this point that may hurt more than help, idk. XD

Either way, they make for great training partners!

[connie_maheswaran]

That'll be a good experience for both of them!

With Connie, even as a gem she still thinks of herself as a human, only enhanced. It's just as important for her to learn how to hold her own in a fight as it is mastering the gem abilities she's been given. That way if their abilities ever get disabled (as they have before) Connie has something to fall back on.

[nailed_it]

Ooo, that's something they have in common too! Yang still thinks of herself as a human as well, just with a magic gem stuck on her, lol. She actually rarely refers to anyone in the Temple as "Gems" either unless they're like Amethyst or Tiger's Eye where they were always that way. And Yang's a pretty firm believer in knowing how to defend yourself without a weapon or even flashy powers (even if she does like being flashy, lol). XD

[connie_maheswaran]

Connie pretty much CAN'T think of most people here as gems since, well, she knows what real gems are, and has also had that hammered into her with some of the "real" gems she met here too (I.E> Peridot, Malachite, Rose). At best she thinks of everyone here as half gems like Steven only with enhancements, and she's still busily trying to find out why that is to begin with. That aside, Connie's kept with her original mission since Steven's run in with the ghost: protecting him and anyone who encounter gem monsters that they can't beat on their own, whether she has her gem powers or not.

[nailed_it]

Oh gosh, trying to unravel the mysteries of why everybody has a gem, godspeed Connie.

I love Connie's determination with regards to her mission and wanting to help people though (as does Yang), and just, go Connie go.
