Who does better in the others universe?

Depends. I forget all the details but could Ed just simply be done with the problems after the Cluster is dealt with? With the help of the gems Ed might be able to pull through if we are lenient and say he can pull Philosopher's Stone soul shenanigans to help calm the Cluster down. He is fucked if he has to deal with the Diamond stuff unless he gets REALLY lucky and can OHKO kill them via transmutating their gems...which would still require actually being able to get his hands on em before getting crushed.

For Steven are we talking Future Steven or regular Steven? Future Steven should be fine in terms of surviving but plot wise he'd probably be in trouble. Father probably bodies him. Been awhile since I watched.

He needs to know what they’re composed of in order to transmute them, and unless they volunteer that information to him that won’t happen very easily. Also if he sees them as “alive” then he won’t shatter them and would need another gem with him at all times to bubble enemies.

Also, Era 1 gems are much stronger than humans (when the writers remember that), able to lift tons of weight and jump good Samurai Jack style, with their bodies able to take an ambiguous amount of damage before destabilizing. Not saying Ed wouldn’t be able to fight them, but it’s not as easy as touching them.

I'm sorry that you feel so insecure

The show confirmed that the cluster could leave just fine without damaging the planet and peridot was wrong

Hmm idk but I did just remember Steven's tears basically break the rules of alchemy so I wonder how they would react to that even if he doesn't become an alchemist he'll probably get labled an alchemist

holy shit people will think his gem is a philosopher stone

They are named after what they are made of

Bruh they literally say there names all the time and they’re made of the same material they’re named after

They dont if you consider Stevens gem to be kind of a low power philosopher stone

He couldn't use alchemy on fusions tho

What if Steven and Major Armstrong fuse? Would it be even buffer and more masculine than Steg? Would fusion amplify ones alchemy abilities

Their bodies aren’t made up of gem, and have no cannon composition.

It comes down to whether or not space gems have physical bodies that are analagous to real gems. If so, Diamonds are all just carbon (the impurities that make color don't matter) and he wouldn't even need to find a gemologist to take on Diamonds.
However, gems are hard light everywhere but their gemstone. I don't know what he'd be able to transmute a fixed photon matrix into.

Why do SUfags keep making these shitty crossover threads? Fuck off, your show ended

Actually in the drill episode Peridot confirmed her gem is made out of peridot therefore you can assume all gems are made of the substance of their name sake

I guess the real question is, would Steven in Edward's world have the ability to learn alchemy? Like obviously he wouldn't have the same access to remote alchemy or the truth but would there be anything stopping him from learning to draw alchemy circles and harnessing their power?

Fusions are literally just other gems though? Pretty sure he just needs to touch one, mess it up, and the fusion comes falling apart

seethe

He'd have to be able to touch their gems. He can't transmute light.

Why would there be anything stopping him? Other than Steven being barely able to read because he never got an education and not having immediate support from more experienced fighters to teach him. As long as he manages to make some friends he is fine, he would never become a state alchemist tho, no way in hell

can Edward also fix gems since he can physically fix the gems but they're also pretty complex creatures so you might not be able to fix them without some diamond goo

Explain to me how fusion works in an alchemy level
Sometimes it's both gems, sometimes it makes a new gem, it's definitely something that doesn't exist in fma world and we would have to try to figure out for himself if it's even possible
Anyways all he needs to do is hit hard enough to refuse them

Fix yes, uncorrupt no

Vash the Stampede

Why do you think Steven wouldn't become a state Alchemist? Like that he couldn't or that he wouldn't?

ed barely made it and he was a prodigy

>Well, there’s absolutely zero chance Steven stops fathers giant transmutation circle plan.
There's significantly less chance he even finds out about it in time on his own, but if he got face to face with him he could definitely talk Father out of it.
Which would probably happen, Steven tends to find himself involved with local politics a lot and if the fuhrer ever saw him he'd take an interest since he'll assume he's a homonculus when the ultimate eye shows his only weak spot is a big stone embedded inside him.

If he didn't have alchemy could Steven still manage to beat Greed? Is his armor actually unbreakable or if Steven hit it hard enough would it break?

yes

no, fusions are just the individual gems both on one body, and they just innately know that their new name is a different gemstone that neither of them are made of.
Garnet is not made of garnet, she just has a ruby and a sapphire on her hands.

...

how about smokey?

He couldn't break his armor but Greed would be easy to talk no jutsu, he just needs to show him the value of friendship and he'll turn right around.
Greed already considers his friends as valuables that need protecting.
