So, the Crystal Gems. They're pretty much the subject of the entire show. Rocks that can project human forms and magical weapons. They fight hand-and-hand against corrupted gems. But, are they evil?

I know what you're thinking. "So you just walked in after a long inactivity with a rainbow frog avatar and a pineapple on my head, and you're saying that the Crystal Gems are on the bad side?"

Let's go to my biggest peice of evidence, which is surprisingly Ronaldo's quote in Keep Beach City Weird. He mentions "polymorphics sentinet rocks", which are basically gems. He then mentions that "The Great Diamond Authority will drill a hole through the Earth". Assuming this is a spoiler, let's analyze it. Diamonds are gems, since they are made from compressed carbon. Diamonds are also technically crystals. Therefore, "The Great Diamond Authority" AKA Diamond is a Crystal Gem. Interesting, right?

Next peice of evidence. Let's go back to Ocean Gem. Lapis says that "the gems don't really care about the earth". As in they care about it, but in a different way. As in drilling a hole in it...

The most recent peice of evidence is in Warp Tour. We were introduced to Peridot. She said she was doing a maitenance check on Earth. Maybe making sure that something - or someone - wasn't there. With the above evidence, we really have no option but to conclude that she was on the good side...

If you still don't believe me, let's move to a peice of evidence that had appeared since the first episode: ''Corrupted Gem Monsters. ''I just read a theory on the FNaf wiki. Here's the theory: 'The souls of the dead children possessed the animitronics so they could get revenge on Phone Guy, or specifically the night guards. 'I think a similar thing might have happened to the corrupted gems. We saw Amythest get mixed up with her cracked gem. If something similar happened, maybe Amythest would have become a corrupted gem. Corrupted gems might not remember peices of their lives, but they DO remember the people who caused them pain and corruption, and that is exactly why they attack the Crystal Gems, and it is also the biggest peice of evidence yet of their maliciousness.

Built apon this evidence, here is my full theory of Steven Universe. Buckle your seatbelts, 'cause this is gonna blow your socks right off!

'A long time ago, a group called the Crystal Gems, lead by the Great Diamond Authority invaded Earth. They planned to drill into the Earth for unknown reasons. Luckily, the gems who were not in the Crystal Gems group fought against them for the good of the Earth. The regular gems won, even though a lot of them were put into corruption. Four Crystal Gems remained: Garnet, Amythest, Pearl, and Rose. Rose eventually transferred her gem to her son, Steven. Now, the remainder of the Crystal Gems are preparing Steven for something unknown...'

I know there are a few holes, for example:
 * How does Steven play into all of this?
 * What happened to the Crystal Gems?
 * What happened to the Great Diamond Authority?

I hope these will be revealed as the series goes on…
