![]() ![]() Narratively, the show has slowly been revealing to us how each of the characters has been dealing with grief, and that knowledge has been moving the story forwards. So, for those who still aren’t convinced, here are some levels on which it would be inconsistent with the show, and in fact outright contradictory to the story for Rose or Pink to return. On several levels, though, the idea that Rose or even Pink Diamond is still around and could come back just does not make sense. Others have said that Rose still exists through her room, and some of that data that makes up who she is or at least her memories must remain there somehow in that tiny whale that speaks to Steven in Rose’s voice. He says something about his powers helping him connect to others, and that he’s “Feeling her feelings.” “Her” in this case, being his mother. White Diamond seems to confirm this in Change Your Mind when she says, “But don’t you know things about her that you couldn’t possibly know?”Īnd for a moment, Steven seems to believe this as well. Or that Steven is able to somehow access memories that aren’t his, those of Pink Diamond in Jungle Moon and Together Alone for instance. ![]() For instance, in Lion 3: Straight to Video, Rose talks into the camera and says that when Steven loves himself and loves being himself, that’s Rose, loving him too. Some events in the show seem to support this. The other end of the spectrum believed that Rose was still conscious and present, but chose to silently observe Steven, which was why he hadn’t heard from her throughout the series. These theories would vary in the specifics, but some conjectured that upon Steven’s death, only his human body would die, and the Gem would remain, so Rose could come back. Steven’s distinct identityĮven before Change Your Mind, theories have long been floating around that Rose Quartz, in some form, was just floating around in Steven’s Gem, and it was a matter of finding a way to interface with it or retrieve the data. While this scene may have opened a lot of new theories on just how much a Gem and how much a human being Steven is, this video aims to address how Steven is inseparably both and highlight the significance of his self-fusion. It had long been speculated what would happen if Steven lost his Gem, or if he could even be physically separated from it. This short sequence raises a lot of questions. Much to her surprise, a pink “Gem Steven” reforms, defying White, and eventually fusing with a weak human Steven in a beautifully animated sequence. She expects Pink Diamond to reform, because, as covered in the last analysis, she thought Steven was just a human outfit that Pink was hiding in. In what leads to the climax of the hour-long episode, White Diamond plucks Steven off the ground and pulls out his Gem without much resistance. One of the most suspenseful scenes in Steven Universe happened in the Change Your Mind special. These are things I’ve written about before in passing, or as brief answers to some asks, but I wanted to have everything consolidated in one place given the new things we’ve learned from CYM. The CU turned that analysis into a video, for those who prefer a video format to the analysis :) I’ll be linking the video for this one too when it does come up.įor the purposes of setting the stage for future analysis, I wanted to write this post on where I stand, definitively, on the whereabouts of Rose Quartz and Pink Diamond. ![]() Hello everyone, here’s another script I submitted to something like a sequel the last analysis I did on Change Your Mind. Putting Rose Quartz and Pink Diamond to Rest ![]()
