Yeah, I'm still not completely sold on the white hair= corruption theory.

I could believe BD is actually deranged, because it ties into mental illness, which is why I felt BD semi-corrupt, what with her volatile emotions and listlessness. However, I thought the "onset" was provoked by PD, rather than before. Not gonna lie, an unhinged BD would be something I'd enjoy seeing.

When I said "conceptualize", I was referring to size proportions; I posted the pics of YD and YP for reference.

In "Message Received" (right after ICBG), YP is taller than YD's boot, but in "The Trial" she's just about half the height of the boot. This suggests one of two things: the YP from MR is substantially bigger, or YD nearly doubled in size.

If we assume YD is the one who changed, then we should take into account the proportions from MR rather than "The Trial" since those two episodes are close together. I'd wager that, at her height in stated episode: YP's hand: YD's hand:: Peridot's hand: PD's hand. In other words, PD's hand = YD's hand, and PD was "normal sized". Hopefully we will see PD's Authority paraphernalia in upcoming episodes, now that the proportions have changed.

Actually I included that photo to compare to the one with Steven and Lars from "The Trial". Again, I think this is related to inconsistency with proportions, to the extent that Lars and Steven fill up BD's throne in her palanquin in the same way Peridot and Steven fill PD's in ICBG. Sure, Lars is taller than Peridot, but he's a lanky kid; width-wise, I think he wouldn't take up much more space than Peridot.
