Imagine pearls acting as spies. They are always by the diamonds and hear everything. Imagine them hating their duties and secretly feeding information to rose. Imagine them being found out and destroyed.
We have identified the Lapis silhouette within The Answer. Apart from indicating that she’s a member of the Blue Diamond court (and likely a prominent and rare member, judging by her “Do you know who I am?!” when talking to the Crystal Gems) it’s interesting to note that you don’t actually see her much as a representation of the court as a negative force.
She appears as the Sapphire and Rubies pass through the Court:
But not when the Court advances on the mixed gem fusion threateningly, nor in the battle with the rebels. Or even when the court advances on Ruby again, after the judgement is delivered and Sapphire grabs her to run.
Lapis also appears when Blue Diamond delivers her judgement (Although very far back and her expression is wide eyed, unlike some gems which appear more angry and threatening)
So it’s good to know that Lapis isn’t being directly implicated in the anti-fusion responses of the Blue Diamond court (Although it’s naive to assume she didn’t share them). It’s also interesting to note that she’s close to Blue Diamond - perhaps a signifier of her position as Blue Diamonds’ right-hand gem? It’s fun to think about!
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
