what i want as a fan: all the antagonists get a redemption. all of em. even the diamonds. steven gets new moms, the earth is saved, everything is amazing !!!!

what i want as a viewer: resolution, answers, clear-cut villains that are meant to be villains and defeated in some sort of way, an ending that makes sense story wise, everyone is developed naturally (SHOW NOT TELL) and stebbo comes to some sort of conclusion. all on his own. he finds his own answers because the only person who could have given him the answers is gone so he takes everything he’s learned and figures out something that works for him. it’s not the best answer, it’s not meant to make him happy but it’s a conclusion and that’s all he wanted.

peridot’s redemption was fine. lapis… it was clear she was gonna be a god guy because even if she hated the cg’s, she loved steven. jasper? as much as i’d love big strong quartz mom (and lil ame-sis teaching big strong mom the ropes), i don’t know. i don’t know how this will play out. will steven figure out how to fix corruption? and if he does. will that change jasper’s feelings about why she’s against him and the cg’s to begin with? one of the things i love about her character is that she was built for a reason, yes. but her resolve is unwavering. she wants closure, she wants revenge for her diamond. and it doesn’t matter how amazing earth is, how nice steven is, she wants what she wants 

the diamonds are oppressive dictators, don’t talk to me about diamond redemption in canon please. i don’t care.
