GUYS! I just found a screenshot from the episode "Serious Steven", and look who's in the wall!



A familiar triangular figure seems to be fighting Rose on the middle part, but look what's all around them: Diamonds. The same diamonds shown on Peridot, to be exact. Rose is surrounded by smaller figures, most likely Gems that are on her side. What happened to these gems? Why are there no gems on the mysterious' gem's side?

I have a theory.

Long ago, there was a very powerful gem, this triangular one. Wanting to be in power, it battled against the good gems, Rose being their leader. There were some gems that sided with the triangle, but the majority stayed with Rose. They fought, but in the end the triangle gem, being so powerful, made almost all of the good gems corrupted, turning them into monsters. The remaining gems fleed, going to Earth and breaking the portal so that they couldn't follow. The corrupted gems spread throughout the universe, and while Rose and GAP hid on earth for hundreds of years, the triangle gem built up the gem home world, intent on conquering the galaxy.

There. This would explain why the Crystal gems keep the corrupted ones, in hope that they can heal them. Peridot could be working for the triangle gem, finding warp pads to be able to conquer more planets. Garnet smashed the pad to make sure they couldn't get to earth, and possibly corrupt or destroy them, too.

I find this all really exciting, hope you like my theory!
