Back in September, we got two mom centric episodes, and in a row to boot. One for Connie, and one for Sadie. You might say that Steven's "mom" episode was Lion 3: Straight to Video. But of course, there's so much about Rose that's shrouded in mystery. With the Crystal Gems giving very few details to Steven, fans are left as much in the dark as he is. There have been a lot of theories about Rose Quartz, but what if what Steven perceives of his mother is all wrong? What if she wasn't the great and glorious gem that everyone makes her out to be?
Greg said, "I barely know you." and Rose replied, "that's a good thing." I mean, Rose saved and then continued to protect the Earth. What else had she done that humans would think was so horrible? They've lived through and seen wars, so if Rose had simply destroyed tons of gems, it shouldn't have been any more horrifying than an Earth war. Check out more on what this could mean for how Steven sees Rose, after the break.
