I'm more of a Steven x Connie shipper (Yes, I'm a shipper), but I don't mind the idea of this ship. Age isn't so much the problem (because age is an illusion for Gems), the only problem, I guess, is the fact that Steven is a young boy either 12 or 13 (I believe 13) and Lapis has the appearance of a woman who is 18-21. If this were to happen, many people (manely Adults) would see this as pedophilia and that is illegal in the U.S. and other countries. If there are so much as implications of a romantic relationship between the two, that would easily spark a controversy, much like the whole Bubbline thing back in 2011. I'm not saying this ship isn't possible, but I don't think it's ever going to happen. I see their relationship as the Big Sister/Little Brother type. Those laws apply to U.S citizens, not to "Aliens".
