aperfectpearl:“I was supposed to make her happy I just… never could.”THIS. THIS. THIS.This small quote, and that look on Pink Diamond’s face, is just…. it’s so much okay? Pearl was given to Pink Diamond a few thousand years before the colonization, so we can assume that Pink is at least three thousand years, but I would guess she’s older and just didn’t have a Pearl before – like Earth, and like the Zoo, Pearl was given to Pink in order to shut her up because the other Diamonds didn’t want to deal with her.And all Pink Diamond wanted was someone to talk to. Yes I know we see her throwing that fit in Jungle Moon, but honestly, that’s what children do when they want someone to pay attention to them. She threw a fit at Yellow Diamond, and Yellow Diamond responded by blowing her off.“But Diamonds aren’t children,” I hear the haters saying. And no, in general, there are no “children” gems. But when you treat someone like a child, they’re going to act like a child. And it’s pretty clear that Pink was treated as a child for most of her life.And eventually, she’s given this Pearl who she’s told will make her happy, and while Pearl is undeniably adorable and how can you not smile looking at that face, she’s still not what Pink wants. All Pink wants is someone who will talk to her, someone to be her friend. And Pearl is amazing. But her happiness, her answers, they’re all to please Pink. Pearl isn’t there because she wants to be with Pink. She’s there because the other Diamonds ordered her to be.And all Pink wanted was someone to talk to her. -- source link
