i relate so much to roses story, i am still a child yet im expected to behave like an adult when im still so immature and volatile and i tend to throw tantrums because i get upset with myself for not knowing how to do stuff ,,, she wanted to change she wanted to forget who she was because she thought something inside her was inherently wrong and bad, that’s why she couldn’t understand why the other gems or anyone could look up to her and that’s why finally she was so selfish with her choices because she didn’t realize of her own power and influence in those around her , i think she was so conflicted because she didn’t quite fit in the status quo and she was so upset with the world but mostly with herself for not being able to do what was expected of her… and so it was , she forged her own destiny with her alter ego fulfilling her dreams and staying true to herself without repressing her true nature .i hope to reinvent myself same as rose did so i can make peace with myself and forgive
this bit is great because the characters on screen have wanted Rose/Steven ‘Shine bright like a diamond’ 1:44 white diamond wants her to be like what she wants her to be 1:47 Bismuth means that they can also shine bright like the Diamond authority 1:50 could also mean they can kill like the diamond authority 1:55 Spinel wanted Steven to be like pink Diamond, wanting him to shine like a diamond 1:57 white diamond again
When the night has been too lonely And the road has been too long And you think that love is only For the lucky and the strong Just remember in the winter Far beneath the bitter snows Lies the seed that with the sun's love In the spring becomes the rose
I would've loved a big ending like this where everyone, The Humans, The Diamonds, The Crystal gems, The Off Colours, The Watermelon Stevens, The Famethyst, The Gems on Earth, even some of the antagonists like Azurite and Jasper, all united to take down Pink Steven and save our baby boy from this corrupted hell that he finds himself imprisoned in.
I never saw pink as a villain, I see her as a broken soul. She went through probably millennials of abuse until she found earth and saw how beautiful life is, she has many flaws yes but wouldn’t anyone if they were in her position? When she found greg I always like to think that he made her whole and become someone better but with so many regrets. “ it doesn’t matter who you were back than, all I care about is who you are now” I loved that quote from Greg, shows that even though he never knew the full truth about rose’s past he only cares about the person she was when they were together. What a beautiful show
my favourite parts are two seemingly unconnected scenes. when Pink/Rose made the video for Steven, explaining that she was giving up her form to BECOME PART of him and that when he loved himself, that was her loving him and loving BEING him. and When he refused with his gem after White removed it to try and "get Pink back" you hear a woman's laughter. That's all that's left of Pink, yes- a mother's love for her son. I love that they decided to put her laugh in there. She's gone, and the diamonds learned to accept that in the end yes but her love never fades.
