There’s something I never understood about the “White Diamond is a fusion” theory.
If White Diamond was a Diamond fusion, wouldn’t the Gems that make up the fusion still remain on her chest (and stomach if Pink was involved)? Why would it move to her head?
Every Gem is made for a purpose – to serve the order of the Diamonds. Those who cannot fit inside this order must be purged! To come out misshapen, to reshape yourself outside your purpose, and to defend this ruined, worthless planet is a disgrace!
So Pink turned into Rose and that likely turned her into a disgrace, falling away from her original purpose of being a Diamond, a leader of Homeworld. But still with that she couldn’t escape what she was made for, she was still a leader even as a Rose Quartz. Which eventually lead her into being Steven
Yellow calls humans disgusting yet for a fact we know Pink LOVED them and loved Earth. It seems like more than anything she’s just out to bash anything of Pink’s at any given moment.
In the concept art for Steven’s Dream it again shows Pink’s love for humans in Blue’s dialogue.
“Ah… She loved these.”
Rose was all about gems being able to change what they were made for. What better way to start the rebellion than showing that a Diamond of all gems could change? Pink wasn’t poofed or shattered when she stepped down from her palanquin, no, she changed. She changed into a Rose Quartz. And Yellow is disgusted with that and tries to cover it up.
What sort of message would that send to other gems, especially to the other Diamond who was so, so close to Pink? Homeworld would fall apart.
Pink Diamond never refers to herself again as Pink Diamond, only going by Rose Quartz. Why would Pink only have one colony? She doesn’t want to be a Diamond.
She doesn’t want to conquer and destroy, she LOVED Earth and wanted to save it. Pink becoming Rose would have been the ultimate message to show that Homeworld is wrong, and it’s good to be whoever you want. But no, Yellow couldn’t have that. She covered it up as soon as she could, viewing Pink and the entire rebellion as a disgrace and as something that needed to be destroyed.
Pink was never shattered, it was a cover-up from Yellow, being disgusted with her change and likely in fear that Blue would leave and change, too.
And honestly, I think that’s the ultimate message. Don’t be what your family and other people want you to be, be yourself, who YOU want to be.
This is actually a really good take on the “Rose is Pink Diamond” theory!
an extended version of “we are the crystal gems” at the end of the series with every gem throughout the series being shown and padparadscha sapphire going “WE” when she’s on-screen
After rewatching The Trial, I realized that the compliments given to the Diamonds are based on their light and gemstone.
Like, the words lustrous, luminous, radiant, glimmering, brilliant, and opulent are all used. Outside of “opulent”, all of these can easily be used to describe an actual gemstone, like a “brilliant” cut.
OMG! Do you think that the pearl thar makes up Rhodonite, is PINK DIAMONDS PEARL? Maybe when Pink died, Pink pearl was left to die away. And the Ruby helped her to get ober her feelings of loneliness. Just a mini theory lol
While the Pearl and Ruby had pinkish colors, I don’t think that it’s THE Pearl that belonged to Pink. I think she was just a Pearl assigned to Morganite.
The reason Fluorite talks so slowly is because it’s a fusion comprised of around six Gems, so it takes a while for them all to process what they want to say.
They’re VERY likely a Pearl and a Ruby. While the Ruby’s Gem placement is exactly like Navy’s, I’m not sure if they’re the same Ruby. I feel that she’d have a much harsher reaction to Steven being there.
I think that this was a Ruby that was assigned a Pearl for her hard work (Eyeball mentioned being able to get her own Pearl for example), but they had feelings for each other and wanted to fuse, which the Diamonds very clearly weren’t happy with.
Or this actually CAN be Navy and her very own Pearl that she was assigned for what she did in Room for Ruby, but things went wrong. They also look pretty “incomplete”, like how cotton candy Garnet looked in The Answer.
Something I’m really curious about in regards to Lars’ Head.
The last screenshot shows Steven emerging from Lars’ hair with a bag. I’m guessing that Lars’ dimension is far different from Lion’s? It sort of looks like a bag from the Big Donut, or maybe even a lunch that Lars’ mom or dad made for him. Maybe the dimensions created by a revived creature are based on areas they’re usually located in. That would explain why Lion’s is a giant field with absolutely nothing else besides Rose’s belongings.
The “leaked credits” for The Trial? It was a pretty elaborate fake. SULeaks brought up that the music used in the credits was actually a popular fan remix. I also noticed that Aquamarine was on the list even though she left during Stuck Together while Blue Diamond’s name was completely absent.
If all of these episodes are airing on the same day, we’re going to get leaks of the first two minutes and screenshots of each one ALL AT THE SAME TIME.
