Pearlnet

Pearlnet is the non-binary ship between Pearl and Garnet from the Steven Universe (Fandom) fandom.

Canon
Garnet and Pearl first met when Pearl was fighting Homeworld with Rose Quartz. When Pearl saw Garnet's components Ruby and Sapphire fuse, Rose told her to leave them alone. They met again later, and Garnet was scared of Pearl at first, but later she agreed to become a Crystal Gem, and joined Pearl and Rose. They both fought in the Gem War with Rose Quartz and lived together in the Crystal Temple. Over the years they have grown closer. In "Cry for Help", however, their relationship sours after it is revealed that Garnet was duped into forming Sardonyx multiple times without finding Peridot. When Ruby and Sapphire make up again, Pearl asks Garnet how she's doing, but Garnet brushes off Pearl by saying "Not now.". Eventually, they talked to each other, Pearl stated that she wanted to feel strong by fusing with Garnet, but Garnet said that she has weaknesses too and the two fuse again. Since then, they've grown closer, and trust each other more.

Fanon
Pearlnet is one of the earliest ships to appear in the Steven Universe fandom. Though, its popularity lowered after the reveal that Garnet is a fusion, in "Jail Break". It is the 7th most written Steven Universe ship on AO3.
