About Lapis' backstory... It conflicts with A LOT of Lapis's previous interactions.
>When she is freed, she asks the CGs "do you have any idea who I used to be?" Why would they if she arrived late and was poofed early? >Jasper also says "they kept you prisoner, they used you". In Lapis' story, homeworld did all the using. The only actual CG that was present was Pearl, and it was more of a cameo.
Or is Lapis just a lying blue ho?

Hooray for Lapis!

Logan Clark
Episode was shit, she didn't lay any eggs.
Isaiah Wilson
Bruuuh What in the fuck? Is this just plot holes again or did the crew meant for her to be lying to all hell?
Leo Sanders
>Peridot fixes the hole in the barn at the start of Hit the Diamond >Only for the Rubies to burn it down at the end of the episode Post yfw

Chase Hernandez
Pretty sure Lapis played up the CG's role because 1. it gave her a scapegoat opportunity to claim loyalty 2. recent events (JUST fighting the CGs in Ocean Gem)
Jace Cook
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all The morning rain clouds up my window And I can't see at all And even if I could, it'd all be gray But your picture on my wall It reminds me that it's not so bad It's not so bad
Wish he could be happy like her

Camden Bell
Didn't Sucrose say Lapis was good at emotional manipulation?
Alexander Evans
So why didn't Steven showed Lapis the Lunar Sea Spire to make her live there? (The temple that Steven drowned)
James Howard
She could have been an aristocrat who was dumb enough to wander into a warzone and so she's butthurt that they didn't recognize her nobility
Henry Kelly
Apparently she's manipulative, according to Rebecca. Also, she was only in Pearls possession for 2 decades, so she really wasn't trapped by the CG for a long time.
Jeremiah Rodriguez
The CGs knew a gem was in there. And they did nothing. The rebellion is the reason she was trapped there in the first place. While pearl was the only one there at the present, obviously the other gems came into the pciture later on.
Colton Nguyen
Lapis is princess snob
Carter James
Your mom is a pedophile.

LAPIS CONFIRMED BEST GEM
Isaac Green
This is the blue gem.
Blake Edwards
>Harem ending confirmed
Connie on suicide watch
Noah Perry
>By that logic almost anything is going to be reacting
uh no?
>Lapis told him her story because she wanted to. The PTSD bit was the only moment where she was "reacting" in that sense
Dude, the episode was literally Steven showing earth places to Lapis in order to try to get her to stay, how is lapis visiting new places not a reaction episode?
>reacting" in that sense
reacting doesn't mean falling on you knees and crying about hard memories, it means giving insight and the way you behave in front of a situation, lapis was going around with steven while he described places, she was basically a tourist, reacting to places is exactly what a tourist does
>instead of just trying to avoid the argument entirely. I have an open mind.
oh come on, you don't have to be passive-aggressive about it
Aaron Rivera
Lolololol
Benjamin Long
They did. Guess i never expected her to be THIS manipulative. Lying from the start, jesus.
Nathan Murphy
Lapis wasn't there for construction. She was a war reporter. Why else would a noncombatant who can project her memories on water be caught up in a battlefield that is very clearly not in a civilied area?
It also explains why she was a civvie casualty. Bismuth knew that if she attacked reporters it would cause public outcry and make homeworld demand that the army pull out. The Vietcong did the same thing in Vietnam
Dominic Robinson
I wanna fuck lapis
Adrian Barnes
>those eyes nice orange kisses is going to ship her and jasper so hard
Asher Ward
So I went through with my A+ paint skills and broke the gems from the flashback down. Blue is for gems that we know, green is for ones that appeared in The Answer/Cheeseburger Backpack for sure, yellow is for ones that are more ambiguous, black is for gems that I couldn't find an analogue for anywhere. Kind of sketchy on Amethyst, but that really reminds me of goo-covered Amethyst in particular.
Also, did anyone else notice that during the flashback, when the blue/yellow/white light exploded that the theme that was used for Blue and Yellow Diamond appeared for a second?

Yo I'm not gay but actually I think I may be a little gay
Parker Stewart
This is the meme gem.
Isaac Price
Would you love her tenderly even if you would never sire a family of little gems?
Samuel Jones
>You could at least try to explain why you think she's interesting. That's like saying why someone like chocolate dumbass I was just pointing out why she didnt show """enough""" personality
Isaiah Roberts
She was emotionally manipulating Steven even while in the mirror. Damn.
Anthony Rogers
She asks "Do you have any idea who I used to be?" in a somewhat-rhetorical sense. It's more about accusing them of keeping a conscious Gem trapped in a mirror for a really long time than the actual question.
As for the second part its more likely they didn't want to spoil her backstory at all. Regardless of whether the CG's used the mirror they still kept her in there.
IIRC there actually is a minor plot hole in that Pearl took the mirror out of her Gem intending to use it before noticing it was broken, but in the flashback it was broken from the start.
Lucas Nelson
Here comes a new challenger.
Matthew Barnes
El Woolio lives on
Ayden Bennett
CANON A N O N
Andrew Clark
That could explain why there are so few Crystal Gems left despite being able to drive homeworld off the planet
Joseph Clark
One word R e d e m p t i o n
Robert Stewart
They did keep her prisoner and used her. They saw that there was a cracked gem on the back of the mirror, and instead of pulling it out and putting it into one of Rose's fountains, they just kept it around for recording/intel purposes.
Isaiah Young
None of these are contradictions. She was poofed and turned into a tool by homeworld, but then discovered by the CGs and used as a tool before being neglected for thousands of years. They didn't try to find out who she was, they just treated her as an object.
Christian Garcia
Is there a source on that statement?
Jonathan Reed

Ayden Thomas
New gems!
Hudson Bell
>Thousands of years Pearl found her in the 80's user.
Justin Martin
The gems seemed pretty primitive in that flashback. No wonder lapis was so shocked at how advanced they've become when she returned to homeworld.
Hunter Hill
>Did they know she was alive? >Did Pearl even show her off to the other two? >WAS she even used for a thousand years?
John Jenkins
pearl is THICC close up
James Phillips
They obviously didn't know that a conscious gem was in there. They were completely shocked by her when she came out.
I just wonder why she never attempted to communicate them the way she did with Steven.
Hunter Adams
She needs no redemption.
Carson Turner
>Lapis and Peridot in the barn together
So who gets the loft?
Dominic Brown
>MFW Rose could have healed her
Andrew Walker
Don't trust them new gems over there.
Lucas Foster
An interview Rebecca did
The quote was: "A big part of Lapis' character is manipulation."
Parker Murphy
Because he drowned it
Christopher Brooks
She was just waiting there while the gems were developing without her.
Hudson Collins
They even had YD's music playing during the explosion
Wyatt Bell
Its a fucking design choice user. It doesnt mean she was literally in the 80s. For all we know she couldve had that form for 1000 years.
Carter Perry
>project her memories on water I assumed that was a trait she picked up from the mirror ordeal, but the idea of it being an inherent water-projection ability that she weaponized out of desperation is an interesting theory.
Angel Hughes
>tried to drown Connie and Steven >broke Greg's leg >wrecked Greg's van >stole the Earth's oceans >trapped Jasper in a toxic fusion for months >tried to emotionally manipulate Steven into believing she fused with Jasper for him >now confirmed that she hates the Crystal Gems for no reason whatsoever
Fuck her.
Owen Adams
Top bunk bottom bunk argument will ensue. Which will be used by fans as a metaphor for which cock is going where.
Colton Barnes
But Peridot is the best gem.
Aaron Perry
>leg warmers yeah, sure, okay
Owen Phillips
In Pearl's defense, the gem was cracked, so she'd either assumed she was dead, or it would be too dangerous to attempt to remove or revive her until they'd found a way to heal broken gems. Lapis can be mad, but Pearl might have had reasons too
Sebastian Price
BABY SLUT nvm, wrong general
Christian Smith
BELIEVE IN STEVEN
Elijah Jones
It wasn't. She wasn't reacting to dramatic things happening to her like she was before where it made sense that she was entirely focused on those things. This was a totally chill episode and a perfect chance to display more aspects of her personality. She didn't.
"This is the proto-Lapis, this character would become basically Lapis. Although the skirt thing she got would become opaque. It's a story about emotional manipulation which would become a huge part of Lapis' character."
Ethan Diaz
>Inb4 it was actually their fusion getting poofed I'd kek but it's probably their BIG BANG ATTACK
Christian Jones
>reacting doesn't mean falling on you knees and crying about hard memories, it means giving insight and the way you behave in front of a situation, lapis was going around with steven while he described places, she was basically a tourist, reacting to places is exactly what a tourist does Again, that's too broad a definition of "reacting", but y'know what, it doesn't matter. The point is that the episode was a good opportunity to show "natural" Lapis, "normal" Lapis. And I found "normal" Lapis boring.
>oh come on, you don't have to be passive-aggressive about it I'm not being passive-aggressive, I'm being sincere. I don't WANT to find Lapis boring.
>That's like saying why someone like chocolate dumbass It's really not, unless you think film critics are wizards.
Nicholas Parker
Peridot is like those annoying lolis in anime with the tsundere attitude who also try hard to be LE RANDOM XD ugh
Zachary Roberts
>>When she is freed, she asks the CGs "do you have any idea who I used to be?" >Why would they if she arrived late and was poofed early? That's not what she was asking. She was asking if they even CARED about who she used to be. Pearl literally just found this mirror lying around and carried on using it as a tool instead of wondering if the gem inside it was suffering or not.
Brody Scott
she was such a dork this episode, but its good that she can express herself without worries
Anthony Diaz
>people are already making "Woolie" their new bara waifu Oh look at that. I was right.
Zachary Perez
There were no inconsistencies, and Lapis didn't lie.
1. The quote was "You three knew I was in there, and you didn't do anything! Did you even wonder who i used to be?" The gems knew there was a sentient being imprisoned in the mirror, and did nothing
2.Homeworld did all the using until Pearl found her, and used her as a tool, then later gave her to Steven, and they all lied about what the item really was.
So what's the conflict?
Kayden Perry
It's so weird how several of those gems actually appeared in The Answer. The one with the icecream hair actually spoke up when ruby and sapphire fused
she never weaponized it
Thomas Lopez
Maybe Pearl brought them into fashion after parading them around the earth for hundreds of years? She finally got her validation for her weird fashion choices.
