I’m not sure if you’ve answered this or not but how do you feel about Rose/Pink? Do you hate her for what she’s done or???

This is nothing against you, anon, but I’m SHOCKED that there is still a person on this blog that doesn’t know how I feel about Rose/Pink. It feels like I’m yelling about it every other day. 

SHE’S LITERALLY MY FAVORITE CHARACTER. 

And now before I get the metaphorical gun to my head from 450245 of you screaming “BUT SHE’S A BITCH I wanna punch her face!” in my askbox, I will explain further: 

I know she’s not a blameless character. I know she’s done many very bad things. She’s not even a good person, per se, and she can be stupid and selfish. 

But I don’t give a shit! She’s a morally grey dumbass but she’s trying her goddamn best and given the kind of upbringing she had, given where she came from and how much she legitimately tried to grow and given how far she’d come, I think she’s one of the most fascinating characters on the entire show. 

The problem is - we’re seeing Rose’s growth backwards, chronologically. And a lot of people don’t have the sense of realizing that it’s fooling them into believing her character itself is regressing. 

We fell in love with her as she was when she had Steven - loving and more aware of herself, and more respectful of humans and human life in general. She seemed like a good person because… she was! That was who she was, in the end! And she was having Steven because she legitimately thought that he would have a good life!! It was a choice made 5000 years after the war, and she presumed that the earth would remain a safe haven for her son and family, as it had until then. 

But from there, we see her past and we see the road she took to GET there, we see what she was BEFORE all that development. 

We see her as she was before she met Greg - warm and loving, but ultimately still lacking true respect for humans. 

And then, we go even FURTHER back. We see what she was like during the Rebellion and what she did - shattering Pink Diamond and building up a new legacy. We see her locking up Bismuth without actually explaining anything. And it gets even more morally questionable. 

The further we go into her past, the more mistakes we see. And that’s not a sign that she’s a terrible person - 

that’s a sign of how far she’s come!!

And honestly, she’s still not blameless. She left Bismuth where she was. She left Spinel. She bubbled the Rose Quartz gems away. And although I legitimately think she did this because she saw it as the lesser evil and was, in a way, trying to protect them, she still made poor decisions. 

And ya know what? That’s fascinating to me. She’s a character with great potential who never got her loose ends tied up and never got her ‘full redemption’ which makes people hate her.

But she’s the most realistic out of all the characters. She has flaws that are impossible to like. She has bad coping habits that helped her survive during her time with the Diamonds that ruined things for all her family. And she tried to deal with it all and ended up causing… well…. the entire damned show, for a start. 

And I just feel like it’s such a shallow take on her character: “She did bad things and I hate her.” It’s such a childish, surface-level comprehension of what her history is, and what drives her. And I hate it, and I will always love Rose. Not because she’s a good person, but because she’s real and flawed and multidimensional and relatable.

You can disagree, obviously, and you can dislike her character! But I’m gonna be in my own corner, loving every moment of it.

Zuko.. Makes more sense when you remember he doesn't get a lot of sleep. Like canonically he's just so tired most of the time
