It represents her mental strength, think of Jasper, Lapis, and Malachite, while they were in the fusion's dimension, as mental constructs that appear a certain way to Steven so he can understand what's happening at the moment. Them sinking down and rising up represents them taking control and losing control, the messy hair and bruising represents the toll it's taking on them mentally, example Jasper only saying 'you' represents her slowly going mad after being trapped so long and Lapis's hair getting messy and hurt means that it's taking everything she has to just hold the fusion in place. Malachite coming up kinda represents a nuetral ground, Malachite herself, she yells 'go!' because it would allow Lapis to keep the fusion together and Jasper won't have to be shattered or poofed which gives them what they both want in a extremely twisted way. Malachite is there pretty much to say, "hey, come find her, she's gaining control and when that happens it won't be good."
