So I just had a thought that Yellow and Blue Diamond seem to act like the right and left side of the brain.

Left Brain deals with logic, analysis, facts, and computation. This fits with Yellow Diamonds’s theme of (well supposed to be) logic, technology, and innovation, as well as her emphasis on functionality. And Right Brain deals with creativity, imagination, arts, and emotions/feelings. Which we see with Blue’s clearly emotional state, her grief, her faction’s emphasis on diplomacy, and her structure’s use of artistry.



And if that’s the case then PD acts as the worldly-grounded emotional heart and WD as the higher-purpose orientated logical thoughts? Guiding their overall actions?

So, they’ve lost their emotional center and their empathy. Without PD they’ve lost their ability to appreciate and find beauty in the world.

And without WD, who is also absent it seems, they’ve lost their ability to think clearly about the bigger picture.







TL DR: Yellow is left brain. Blue is right brain. Pink is empathy. White is higher-order thinking.
