Okay so I forget if I ever posted this theory here before

but while some people suggest Jasper secretly IS a fusion, my theory instead was she actually had a compatible fusion partner during the war on Earth, but they were killed, likely by a non-fused gem, while she and her partner were fused at the time at the time it happened ((ie their fused form was killed, but while Jasper’s gem survived and regenerated, the other gem was too badly damaged and did not)).



I bring this up because this gem in the flashback looks a lot like Jasper but is fucking massive and also wields the axe Garnet picked up in Rose’s Scabbard as well as the helmet.

This giant gem also lacks any immediately visible ‘abnormalities’ like extra limbs or distorted body structure - a state that so far we’ve been shown only naturally healthy fusions have ((Garnet, Stevonnie)). And as Garnet said, a lot of good gems were lost on that battlefield. Whether Jasper was ever a decent entity or was always a dick but somehow had a good natured / more level headed partner who was her balancing force, or hell, maybe her partner was jsut AS mean Jasper and that’s why they got along so well, who knows.



Granted, if any of this turns out to be true ((it is jsut my speculation n all)) this doesn’t make Jasper any less of a violent jerkass or redeem her at all, but these are the theories that enter my head.



I’ll avoid discussing the rest of the episode until when more people have seen it, since this particular warble doesn’t require me spoiling the new episode’s plot itself. Also, NEW OPENING!
