This is a short inspired by the newest episode "Storm in the room". It is written in first person and revolves around Steven coming to terms with some of the things he have learned about Rose's past and actions.
I do not own the show. Steven Universe belongs to Rebecca Sugar and Cartoon Network.
Hope you'll enjoy.
Changes like the weather
She was sweet. She was funny. She was kind. She was powerful. She was warm.
She was like a fluffy cloud during a summer's day.
She smelled like roses, she was as playful as the wind, she was like the warmth of spring.
But… they never wanted me to know all of her.
She lied about their friend, she abandoned them when they needed her. She killed someone that another one looked up to, driving that person mad with vengeance and regret.
She was like the storm that devastates the land.
Leaving the land bare so that new life could grow. But what was lost would never be again.
She was a lot like the weather.
Cold and unforgiving, tearing through others emotions and hope, like a storm uproots trees and earth.
But also she was like a gentle breeze, making anyone and everything bask in the beauty around them. Filling up all their senses with what was in the moment.
I still love her, even if I hate the things she has done. Things that should have been said, things they should have been undone.
I may never know all of her. I just know that she changes like the weather.
