Hey guys, some titles for upcoming episodes got posted on Zap 2 It. I posted about it in the Spoilers and Leaks thread.
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?No, I don't think it's that. He wouldn't have a use for pizza cutters in that episode...
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Besides Kofi abusing his parental status to cheat at volleyball...that's mostly true.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.So...I was thinking about possible reasons gems are so hellbent on expanding their empire to create more gems, when gems live for thousands of years and are really hard to kill. But like what if gems being corrupted is a relatively common thing? And since Homeworld either can't or doesn't bother to fix them, they just shatter them? So that's one of the reasons they need to keep replenishing their supply of healthy gems?
If it didn't have anything to do with the rage-quit sparkle effect they left behind, that's a good second option.
Gems are parasites...they need no reason, they just do it instinctively.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Isn't "That's how they reproduce" a good enough reason to colonize more planets? I mean, it was a perfectly good explanation for why the Reapers did what they did. At least in Mass Effect 2. They came up with a different reason that made no sense in Mass Effect 3, but that's neither here nor there.

Parasites always feed off other living things, so despite the virus comparisons I'm not sure if that's the right word. Unless it's proven that what Gems get from the rocks is some kind of life energy of course.
The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing.They suck the life out of planets to reproduction, that's close enough.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Will to power is pretty much the beginning and end of it.

The shipping chart on the wall in the last panel of that first one... HOMESTUCK REFERENCE! Not only does it contain several card symbols, but it's exactly the same format as all

After seeing a review that brought up some interesting points, it's reaffirmed my sympathy for Lapis in her spotlight episodes this season.
A lot of fans are mad at her for breaking Peri's tape recorder, which was a dick move. But Steven and Peridot are trying to get her to socialize and be happy, which isn't something she's ready or wants to do.
She just wants to be left alone for a while and enjoy her own private freedom. It's subtle, but it seems to have flown under the radar to an extent that Peridot wasn't right in her justification for wanting to help Lapis.
Lapis: I don't want your garbage.
Peridot: What, were you trapped in a tape recorder too?! Look, I get it, you know? You're confused! You can never go back to Homeworld. This place, doesn't exactly feel like home yet. You're alone, no one could possibly know what that feels like! Oh wait, I do! We're the same, except you don't have to be alone all the time.
Well, she basically was stuck as a recorder even if Peridot doesn't know that. And her problem isn't that she's alone, it's that she is still trying to recover from not being alone. Sure the Earth isn't home to her quite yet, but unlike Peridot Lapis didn't want to go back home after she was stuck on Earth.
She means well, she really does, but Peridot's problems aren't Lapis' problems.
And when push came to shove, she saved Peridot from the eye and took time to ask if she was okay.
Does it mean she should have been so blunt with the green triangle, of course not. But I think fans want to be mad at her because it wasn't the fluffy, heartwarming friendship moment that they wanted. She needs time to heal.
That, and some got on Lapis' case for being more aloof with the baseball game but she was happy a few times and was clearly staying on task with the game. Now that nobody's bugging her, she can have her own little moments to be herself as Bob.
There's also the fact that the tape recorder is probably so primitive that Lapis literally sees it as garbage. It would be like if you were upset, and then someone came up to you and said, "Here, I made you this rock tied to a stick!"
I've got Frozen, Spectacular Spider-Man, Crash, Spyro, and Paper Mario fanfics.
