NOW YOU’RE MY PRISONER, AND I’M NEVER LETTING YOU GO
ugh tumblr please stop resizing this really bad, here’s a larger version
You know, it suddenly occurs to me the hypocrisy of Lapis complaining about the Crystal Gems keeping her trapped in the mirror, then turning around and herself keeping Jasper trapped at the bottom of the ocean.
She did it for steven, the only one who actually cared for her. Homeworld just used her to get info on earth. The crystal gems wanted to hurt her, but she knew if she let the gems get hurt, it would hurt steven, her only ally.
Did the CGs actually want to her hurt, or did they just want to keep her locked up because they thought She was dangerous? I mean it’s not like they go around killing everything, they just lock up the rogue gem creatures and magic stuff they think poses a danger to humanity.
She’s been there since early in the war and she is very powerful. It’s possible she fought against Roses army and got damaged. Rose, being the kind of person she is, could have placed her in the mirror to keep her from dying like amethyst almost did when her gem was broken. As for why she wouldn’t heal Lapis instead, would you heal a powerful fighter who was ordered to kill you?
