I feel bad when I watch Alice in Wonderland because this poor little girl is lost and this rude ass atheist caterpillar keeps vaping in her face… poor kid
OKAY SO. People are looking at this and assuming Rose made Lion out of one of these lions.
WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT’S PROBABLY NOT QUITE TRUE?
Because there is one extremely key point emphasized repeatedly throughout the episode, even ending on calling extra attention to it yet again:
Steven and Connie are not imagining it accurately.
They assume there are seven regular lions. (They also assume a 3:4 gender ratio which could also be wrong but I digress.)
With that in mind, I propose that one of them WAS Lion. Not “the lion our Lion was made from”, but ALREADY Lion as we know him.
What if-
For that matter, what if:
What if Rose had a full rainbow of Lions?? An Amethyst lion and a Carnelian lion and a Jade lion and so-on?
Of course then that begs the question… Why? Do all these lions have similar abilities to our Lion or was each unique? Were lions just conductive to Rose’s gem-organic-hybrid research, or was there a more specific reason for working with them? Were they just her test subjects / pets, or was she trying to build an alternative-to-full-Gems army, or was she using their powers for something else altogether, or….?
I mean this still doesn’t answer anything but it changes the questions we really should be asking.
I’m betting seven pink lions made from the shards of Pink Diamond.
if she was using gem shards to cerate gem/biological hybrids it would make sense for her to hide it from pearl. Because what is confirmed is that pearl didn’t know she even owned one lion, let alone seven
