>>120158886Honestly, a big reason I'm attracted to Jasper is because of that stupid trope of "I can change them with LOVE UwU", albeit without the kind of "Twilight/50 Shades" bullshit that clings to that idea.
Sometimes, I find myself fantasising some shitty AU where I found her before she got shattered, nursed her back to health, got her to open up over all the bullshit she's been through and deal with it constructively, maybe stopped her going all psycho stalker on Lapis, eventually getting on... well, maybe not "good terms" with Steven and his pals, but at the very least getting her to be civil to them, while I develop the backbone to tell her off when she gets too caught up in her "best Quartz" bullshit.
I feel like a lot of the reason Jasper is so popular with us is because we wanted her to become more than the Piccolo for this franchise. Hell, at least Piccolo got some character development after he died.
tl;dr, I want Jasper to be my gentle femdom gf because she ticks a lot of boxes for me, but I'm aware that she got screwed up too much after the writers let money on the table, so to speak.
