Lapis Lazuli Steven Universe - Tumblr Posts
Remember when Lapis nearly drowned Steven and Connie? I just thought that, since Lapis is a Homeworld gem who wouldn't have had close, if any, contact with humans before, maybe she didn't know they needed to breathe.
I mean, in the third season she put the ruby squad in water bubbles and they were fine. Perhaps it was a common tactic for her already.
I love this image, because out of context it looks like Lapis is a severely mentally ill woman who is finally snapping at someone, not caring that her voice is breaking and that she's crying.
I have a small theory around Lapis Lazuli.
It started because the more I think about what she does in the show, the more powerful she seems to be.
First, she took the ocean. It is implied it was the entire ocean. That's 70% of our whole planet's surface. A lot. Then she beat the three cristal gems by herself while holding up a gigantic tower of the taken water. All of that with her gem cracked.
Later we see her fusion with Jasper, who is way too big for a two gem fusion.
We've seen two gem fusions before, and the others are either human sized (Garnet) or a "bit too big to be human" sized (Opal, Rainbow Quartz). But Malachite has the the same size as Alexandrite, who is a four gem fusion.
My theory is that, just like Jasper, Lapis Lazuli is a "perfect" gem. Her exit hole would be deep and straight.
This would be why she is so powerful, why she asks yelling if they "ever wondered who she used to be" - maybe she was in a high social position due to her "high quality" - why her fusion with Jasper, another "perfect" gem is so powerful and big, and also perhaps why Jasper wanted to be with her, because she was "perfect" like her.
Just my thoughts.
Lapis Lazuli would cry so much reading The Odyssey. A story about a man who spends ten years sailing the same waters trying to get home, but something or someone always stops him.
I can’t to see Lapis’ new outfit
Scary scythe!
