Breathing. Not-breathing. Wait, Gems don't need to breathe, but they do it in order to speak. Does that make them "Half-Breathing"? "Unbreathing"? I think "Facultative breathers" applies.

Whatever, I don't get what 1rngz means, but I think this topic should be discussed. I mean, for example: Does rose qualify as active or as inactive? Or maybe a new category?. The same applies to the gem shards: The Gem as whole is inactive, as it is technically dead, but the individual shards still have energy and a partial conscious, but they are not enough to make up a whole being. Where do they fall? I know that they are bubbled, so technically they don't count as active. But their inactivity is different from that of Rose, or any other bubbled gem. Also, since Jasper's conscioussness is (as far as we know) being constantly supressed by Lapis Lazuli, shouldn't she count as "inactive". It's a very interesting topic to expand on.
