People are upset about Steven killing Jasper, and, you know, I don’t really get why.

1. Dying is an exciting experience. Like, how many people get to die and come back? Very few. This will make Jasper much more interesting at dinner parties, because before all she could really talk about was the time she got corrupted, but, like, that’s 99% of Earth gems? Not interesting. That’s probably why she lives in the cave tbh.

2. Dying clearly makes you a better person. Before Lars died, he was super annoying. After? Space pirate. He has a cape. He has friends. Huge upgrade. And now, like, Jasper’s super chill and supportive of Steven’s Diamond destiny? She was kinda a huge bitch before so this really feels like an improvement.

3. Sweet ass appearance modifiers. Lars is pink and has a cool scar. Jasper has a cool scar. Scars make you popular with ladies, so Jasper should actually be thanking Steven.

4. Finding out important information. Steven now knows he can fix shattered gems, at the small expense of possibly giving Jasper a little bit more trauma from fucking dying for a couple hours.

5. Lars got cool powers from being revived so there’s a huge possibility Jasper’s gonna get more powers. Tbh, Steven is selfishly hoarding the superpowers by not killing more people, and I hope he wakes up to his bad attitude and kills and revives the humans in Beach City next.

anyway, Steven’s really fucking good at killing and I think he should lean into his skillset
