Actually y'know what here's a more detailed version of the theory bc I wanted to write this idea down somewhere before it inevitably gets debunked by SU Future


 * So there were originally 5 Diamonds with Green Diamond being the 5th
 * She has gemstone-based powers: she can shatter and un-shatter Gems at will, as well as move Gems around by their gemstones
 * She can also manipulate non-sentient gems/rocks/metals/minerals/etc (basically earthbending powers)
 * She's around the same height as Pink, her gemstone is on her navel and shaped like an upside version of Blue's gemstone
 * She also had her own ship (a right leg) while Pink just had the left leg ship
 * Green was the closest to Pink, pretty much being best friends
 * One day Pink and Green got in an argument which led to Pink shattering Green by accident (due to Pink's destructive temper)
 * Since a Diamond shattering another Diamond would be a bad look on them, the remaining Diamonds erased all the Gems' memories of Green (using Pink's power) and got rid of any evidence of Green ever existing at all (ie. changing the Diamond logo), as if there were always only 4 Diamonds in the first place
 * Green's ship was combined with Pink's to create the pink 2-leg ship we know now, and any remains from Green's ship were used to make the green hand ships
 * But then Pink used her power on the other Diamonds and erased their memories of Green (without their consent I mean) even though she felt bad about erasing their memories, she couldn't see them continue to suffer bc of Green's death
 * Pink may or may not have erased her own memories of Green, if she did then she regained those memories after hurting Pink Pearl's eye
 * At some point Pink hid Green's shards (in a bubble) in the treasure chest, and later (as Rose) stored the chest in Lion's mane for Steven to find
 * The chest also contains a tape where Rose 1. reveals that she's Pink Diamond and 2. explains what the gem shards are (but leaving out some crucial details, like Pink herself being the one to shatter said gem) 3. asking Steven to help [Green] as Rose/Pink couldn't bring herself to do so, but she believes Steven will be able to help
 * Steven has found the contents from the chest but hasn't unbubbled the shards or watched the tape
 * Green's shards has been in the dark of the chest without seeing light for so long that they have lost their color and turned black
 * If the shards are put back together she'll be able to un-shatter herself using her own powers and regenerate, however she will now be Black Diamond and possibly have a more messed up appearance (like a messed up eye and cracks all over her body?)
 * Green/Black will be an antagonist (due to her resentment towards Pink and the other Diamonds) but not immediately, she'll act friendly at first and won't make her move until Steven and the other Gems get a full picture of her story

No tldr bc I suck at summarizing
