>>112097754>You think those other two Lapises would've listened without the use of force?One of them would. It showed it was clearly working with the nice one. They only had to explore other venues but they stuck with the same generic ass ones.
>It's already been established that being an asshole is the natural state for a Lapis, talk less of literally being traumatized repeatedly.Nope, the Lapis with freckles was as much of an asshole as any other HW gem who still follows old values. Are Rubies all inherently unreasonable jerks because Eyeball still hates Steven?
>She's made amazing progress, considering her circumstances.What circumstances? The fact that the show completely put her on the background and made all her real development happen off-screen?
>She's shown that she's capable of stopping herself when she feels angry, and feeling remorseOh wow, the crazy bitch who lusts for power can be willing to offer the mercy of "not" deciding to destroy two gems today. What amazing progress! And we can tell its a good development because all her anger management happened off-screen with no episode or arc dedicated to her working on those very things.
>she knows she's made mistakes, and always does her best to make amends.What the fuck are you talking about? She made fun of Connie for complaining that she allmost drowned her, never apologized or made it up to Peridot for breaking the barn and leaving her homeless, barely interacted with any of the crystal gems after trying to kill them for something they didn't do and ended up punching Jasper all the way to Antartica instead of trying to help her, even having Peridot not mention her name on the barn.
>Not everyone is going to be perfect and nicey-nice all the time, dumbass.Of course not, but the show is acting like Lapis IS nice now. If they wanted to make her a full asshole from beginning to end, I wouldn't complain. What do you think that pathetic song was for?
