Gary Lore

3/16 Edited to

... Read moreOkay, fellow Steven Universe fans, let's talk about the latest Bribob chapter, specifically Chapter 246! I've been seeing so many discussions about 'Gary Steven Universe' lately, and after diving into this comic, I totally get why. This chapter throws some serious curveballs, especially regarding the mysterious 'man in a pink jacket' we now know as Gary, and his intense relationship with the multi-headed character. It's a goldmine for fan theories and expands the universe in ways I didn't expect! First off, Gary's backstory is clearly more complex than we might have imagined. The multi-headed character tells him, "Don't call me dad," and later, "Y'know you're just like your mom, middle Gary. She also never ate." This immediately raises so many questions! Who is Gary's mom, and what does 'never ate' imply in a world where Gems don’t need to eat? Is she human or a Gem with unique properties? And the repeated references to 'dad' – could this be a direct link to a prominent figure in the Steven Universe canon, perhaps even one of the Diamonds or another Gem authority? Gary's exclamation of "Oh my Stars" when a revelation hits him is also a classic Gem-related phrase, further cementing his deep connection to this universe. Then there's the truly captivating multi-headed character. While Bribob is a comic and doesn't have official voice actors, if this character were ever animated, their voice actor would have an incredibly challenging role. Their lines are packed with raw emotion and deep-seated trauma. Imagine the range needed to deliver a heartbroken "You're lying!! No!!" or the agonizing cry of "Hurghhh!!!" This character's pain is palpable, and their desperate plea, "I thought I'd disappear .... like Rose did. Why am I still "here"?" sent shivers down my spine. This single line ties them directly to Rose Quartz and the history of Gem kind, making me wonder if they're a corrupted Gem, a failed fusion experiment, or perhaps even a sentient Gem shard struggling with their existence. The most shocking moment, for me, has to be when a hand pulls on the gem on the forehead of the multi-headed character, causing blood to appear. In the Steven Universe world, Gems don't typically bleed human-like blood from their gem locations. This detail is a massive lore bombshell! What does this unique reaction mean? Is the multi-headed character a hybrid like Steven, embodying both organic and Gem biology? Or does it hint at a new, darker form of Gem corruption or transformation that we haven't encountered before? This scene alone opens up countless possibilities for what Bribob is exploring within the Steven Universe framework. Chapter 246 truly deepens the emotional stakes and expands on the mysterious connections between Gary and this multi-headed Gem. The hints at a shared, painful past, the echoes of Rose's history, and the shocking physical manifestation of pain make this chapter a must-read for any fan craving more lore. I'm left wondering what secret they are trying to figure out, and what further revelations await us. What are your theories on 'middle Gary' and this incredible multi-headed gem? Let me know!
