>>112070876>Why is he so aggressive now?A man can only take so much.
For years, he struggled to fix all the problems created by his mother; every past betrayal, every lie and misdirection, every failed scheme, and all the people hurt by Pink Diamond's attempts to be free of her past. All of it - every single, minute granule - fell at his feet, and he inherited the responsibility.
He traveled across space and peered through time, fought with creatures from beyond the darkest reaches of space, unlocked the mysteries of the universe, and harnessed power unknown to humankind, and he did it all to unravel the mystery of the gems.
Finally, after countless battles and heartache, after a lifetime's worth of pain and fear, he succeeded - peace across the universe. The gems were free of their past, and humanity was safe. He had found his family, built his legend, attained love and acceptance, made peace with himself, and finally, he could rest.
He was in the future, and it was bright. His happily ever after would never end.
But it did.
He is still - somehow, impossibly - still being haunted by the actions of his mother. Even now, he discovers new and terrible secrets all too often.
The shadow of Pink Diamond lies as heavily over his life as always.
To make matters even worse, some people would choose to hold onto the grudges of the past rather than move forward. Even after everything, the fight continues.
The evidence stands apparent. He has tried the non-aggressive way, and it has not worked.
How much more must he endure?
A man can only take so much.
