>>110963734i don't think its so much reading minds or even spying on steven. i genuine think she was thinking five steps ahead of everything and everyone, including the diamonds.
if anything white wording and calm towards pink makes me think she always knew rose and pink were the same person.
she just came to the logical conclusion that there was no way a simple quartz would of rebelled like that and have such intimate knowledge of the diamonds without some deeper understanding.
while i do think pearl being white diamonds original is actually true, i also think white diamond just had the same conclusion that the fans had for fucking years and ruled it as the most likely cause much like the rest of the cast did eventually.
white diamond is basically shodan, she was basically just letting it run its course.
the only thing she didn't expect or foresee was steven being his own entity
