When she left Earth, she offered to take him
When she sent The Message, it was addressed to him
When she gave warning about Homeworld Gems being on their way, it was to warn him
When she lied to Jasper, it was to protect him
She says she’s keeping Malachite at the bottom of the sea to keep him safe
This Gem who only knew being captive as a tool for who knows how many centuries, this Gem who has no reason to trust anyone else, no reason to be loyal, entirely trusts Steven Quartz Universe and offers him whatever protection she can manage.
Steven has become so much like Rose. More and more people willing to sacrifice for him (Connie, the Centipeetle), and yet…
he’s the one with the shield.
