Once upon a time remarked that Lapis Lazuli’s weapon (be it water manipulation or simply her wings) is unsuitable for forming fusion weapons with other gems.

I was wrong. Very wrong.

True, we haven’t seen it happen yet, but after more consideration I’ve come to the conclusion that I’ve been looking at things from the wrong angle. I’m wasting too much time with introductions so lets just get right into it and start off with the obvious one

Lapis + Peridot: Mercury or Ferrofluid

This one needs no introduction. The 80th element on the periodic table (or 81st if you count neutronium, which I usually do) is shiny, jiggly, and poisonous enough to put an pseudo-inuit demigoddess in a wheelchair in between seasons. As the most obvious combination of Lapis’s water bending and Peridot’s metal bending, the possibility that this watery metal IS Lapidot’s fusion weapon (and it is the most likely) goes hand in hand with their fusion being Cinnabar, a bright red quicksilver ore also used as a gemstone and dye (just like Lapis)

Of course, Ferrofluid is also a possibility

composed of metallic particles suspended in a liquid substrate, ferrofluid is well know for forming spiky, low-friction protrusions in response to a magenetic field. In this case I would suggest that their fusion would be Hematite

Lapis + Steven: Saliva bending

Steven’s healing spit is almost certainly one of his most powerful assets. Not only can it heal the injured, but it’s capable of repairing just about any physically damaged person or object and can turn plants into animate and sentient beings

Merged with Lapis’s water wings, Steven’s healing spit could now be mass produced and easily distributed. Released as rain, the power of this mix may well be beyond description. To give you an idea of how huge this would be, don’t stop at thinking healing people without licking them. Hell healing whole armies is just a small thought in the scheme of things. No, steven’s spit can heal inanimate objects of damage and bring life to the inert. Imagine what it could do to something like this:

Lapis + Garnet: Scrying AND Electrocution

Scrying is a classic application of divination: the mystic art of seeing events displaced in space and time. In other words, it’s a form of future vision, one unique in the fact that it it’s projected onto physical objects for ordinary people to see. Scrying requires a flat reflective surface to project onto, most often it’s (get this) a mirror or a pond of water.

Lapis herself has used a similar power twice before, but she was only able to project her memories onto her mirror or that table of ocean water in Same Old World. Combined with Garnet’s future vision, Lapis would be able to project the future onto surfaces as well as the past.

I suspect Sardonyx may a similar power, though in her case she would use Pearl’s gem as a movie projector. However, given that Pearl’s gem covers Sapphire’s eye, it’s ambiguous whether Sardonyx has future vision at all, or whether she instead sees the fourth wall

Moving back to the powers, while it would not combine per se with Lapis’s waterbending, Garnet’s electricity manipulation would have a highly sybiotic effect, increasing her battle potential to a degree greater than the sum of its parts



Lapis + Amethyst: Tentacle lash

Okay, I really need to cool it on the Avatar stuff, but in this case we’re at sort of a weird spot. Amethyst herself does not have a proper power of her own to lend to a Lamethyst fusion, nor could her whips physically combine with Lapis’s water, but she does have power unique to her whips that would work in tandem with Lapis’s abilities

Amethyst’s whips exude a dancing flame of purple energy that explodes when it reaches the ends of her whips. Combined with tentacles made with lapis’s water, it would be a decidedly powerful and disturbing attack

Yes, I said disturbing. Neither Amethyst nor Lapis are very emotionally stable, but a fusion combing the two of them would be even worse. Amethyst handles power poorly, and any time her influence acts up in a fusion the presence is monstrous, like Sugilite or Alexandrite’s second mouth. Likewise, Amethyst is way too reminiscent of Jasper for Lapis to have any positive feelings about going into this.

This is a toxic fusion incoming if there ever was one, and the tentacles are just the tips of the iceberg

Lapis + Pearl: Weather Control

It’s not a well known fact, but Pearl herself has shown the ability to manipulate clouds in past episodes like Sworn To The Sword. It’s not clear whether or not this is a power of its own, or the same light telekinesis that let her make sand sculptures in Giant Woman, but beyond clouds there are really only two things you can make with Lapis’s water and Pearl’s light, and they form the two cardinal poles of the weather spectrum:

Motherfucking Lightning and Fatherfucking Rainbows

No, but seriously. If Lapearl actually does manage to turn people into snails rainbows full of subliminal messages, I am throwing my computer out the goddamn window and never touching one again.

Lapis + Bismuth: Ice Weapons

Okay, here’s were things get weird. Lapis and bismuth meeting is the biggest fucking wild cards on the table at the moment and we have no way of knowing whether Bismuth’s continued existence will be the wedge that pries open the camel’s spine between Lapis and the crystal gems, or whether learning the harm she caused to an innocent person who just happened to be a noble will be what causes Bismuth to realize just how wrong her binary morality was. Both are possible, and they are not mutually exclusive.

If Bismuth and Lapis fuse, and they are stable enough to combine their powers, the only possible weapon I can imagine from the two would be all of them. Bismuth is a master weapon crafter, Lapis can forge weapons of ice from nothing. The two would have a working arsenal: potentially one of every weapon we’ve seen among the crystal gems
