Is there any proof to that theory of "if Garnet's shades are predominantly one color that means one of her half's is currently more in control than the other?" Because unless there is I'm not buying this.

I mean what reason would they have to lie to Steven at this point when he's been told what happened by someone with literally no reason to lie? Not to mention how emotional Jasper got when she said Rose did something to Pink Diamond. He knows Rose did something that doesn't line up with what he's been told of her so at this point continuing to hide the truth from him will do more harm than good.

Interesting that Garnet uses the word "Destroy" rather than "Shatter". If she was shattered why not say "Shatter"? It sounds like a Jedi-weasel word, "What I said was true, from a certain point of view."
