@CrystalMomSquad The shapeshifting is not the important difference. It's the fact that we don't know if the actual person would have said those words in both scenarios. Regarding the flashbacks, Greg is repeating words that have 'actually been said' by those characters. Those quotes belong to those people.

@Both While I agree the room bases its creations off of previous experiences, we do not know for sure from whom it takes these. Of what we know so far, it can be argued that the room only draws from the experiences of the current bearer of the rose quartz gem, which would be Steven. Cloud Greg, Lars, Sadie, Peridot and Connie may all be based on Steven's memories. This is shown to be notably true for the latter character in Open Book - cloud Connie's speech is dependent on what Steven was thinking, which was that he wanted to say the ending was good. Cloud Connie's words are not reflective of what the real Connie would say. I felt that this could apply in cloud Rose's instance - we do not know if cloud Rose is based off of what Steven thinks or Rose's experiences in the room. If it's Steven's interpretation, then they may not necessarily represent what Rose would have said.

In short, while cloud Rose looks like and acts like Rose, we do not know for sure if she 'accurately' represents her real counterpart. If I have failed to convince you of this, I still respect your opinion; however, I hope we can reach a compromise, perhaps by allowing me to fill in cloud Rose's name as the speaker, since, again, we're kinda 'assuming' that cloud Rose is an accurate imitation of the real Rose.

sorry for length
