>>123911702>Unironically the only person who's actually righting their wrongs in the series.I would agree entirely, except that she includes the Cluster in that. I see this as setting a course for another disaster. The unexpected result of "fixing" the Cluster would also end up disassembling it.
That's the only real fatal flaw of her mentality: That fixing what she had broken would always be positive a positive action.
The way i imagine the story going is the Cluster will resist the attempts at being repaired and Yellow can't understand why. They physically fight with Yellow trying to give form to individual gem fragments and ask them if it wouldn't be better to be their old selves again. The Cluster will still resist this and simply push Yellow away, cradling the 'injuries' of fragmented individuality it sustained. Yellow will resort to lightning again but strain herself too much and start to crack. Sensing the damage Yellow is doing to herself, the Cluster strikes her gem and fragments her. Then absorbs those fragments. Yellow's conciousness is absorbed by the hivemind and after spending some time inside Cluster interacting with the various facets of Cluster's memory and personality. Then she meets the memory the Cluster had of when Steven bubbled them, and her own memories of Pink Diamond pass to the Cluster. These thoughts collect into a dream-like state where Cluster-Yellow directly communicates with the whole Cluster as a representation of Pink Diamond. Yellow realises that she was about to destroy another unique gem she didn't know she created, and that she's using her almost-eternal work of reconstructing gems to further suppress her emotions about Pink Diamond, and how if Yellow had known she could reassemble broken gems, she would've recognized Pink Diamond's deception sooner and helped her better.
Blah blah, cluster uses Yellow's power to fix the Diamond and eject her from the Cluster. Obvious resolution of acceptance follows, the end.
