I don't get why lapis x peridot is such a big ship when they had zero chemistry

I'm the last person you should ask ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think the idea is that they have become besties in the barn, supporting each other while they recover from their Homeworld trauma, mostly Lapis. The two are seen joking with each other, like in Gem Harvest when they are the only ones laughing at Lapis' joke about her traumatic past, so I buy that they're comfortable with each other.

But the thing is, their relationship was actually unhealthy. They were both stagnating in that barn. They had very little hobbies. Peridot was shown walking on eggshells around Lapis, like when she asked Steven to not mention the "J-word" in Beta. And, of course, Raising the Barn showed Lapis regressing immensely under the threat of the Diamonds, not only making the decision to flee from Earth not caring about Peridot's feelings on the matter, but responding to her friend standing up for herself by outright stealing their home with all of their possessions, leaving Peridot behind, with nothing and heartbroken. There is, of course, significance in Lapis taking the symbol of her stagnation with her.

I really thought they'd have more development where they realized that all that time, they only stalled, and didn't actually get to know each other. But no. One "hey" after Lapis out of nowhere crashes the barn on Blue's head, not even the time to talk before Yellow poofs them, and then we skip to the movie where they're besties again. Who cares about all the emotional pain Lapis put Peridot through both at the beginning and the end of their relationship, right? They just made up! Off screen! That's good enough, right?

I get that the finale was rushed to hell, and in the grand scheme of things Lapis and Peridot were not as important as the Diamonds, but as someone who had been the Peridot in a friendship, this genuinely hurt me and it was the #1 reason Lapidot became my NOTP.

In the end, I think Lapidot is yet another case of a super popular ship that benefited from a lack of screentime. We know they lived together, we just didn't get to see much of it, allowing shippers to come up with scenarios where they'd bond. Even though canon proved that they really didn't.

I recommend reading that Reddit thread I linked. I have kept it in my bookmarks ever since Raising the Barn aired because it was like someone fished in my brain and pulled out all of my thoughts about Lapis and Peridot's unhealthy, immature relationship.

“It’s important to ship the lesbian characters with female characters otherwise it’s queerphobic.” *ships lapidot*

[ghalind]

I'm officially inviting lapidot shippers to try and explain why they ship an extremely toxic pairing in my askbox, cmon everyone, try me

[mahoutoons]

"lapidot is toxic" "if you ship jaspis you support abuse!" "bellow diamond are sibling coded"

can y'all stop for a minute? we should all be going after the real enemy: people who still ship stevinel and stevidot in 2024.

I'm sorry but (specifically pinterest) lapidot shippers are INFURIATING, half of them are twelve(nothing is wrong with being twelve of course lol, it's just the most common age I've seen) and freak out seeing anything mildly suggestive (I literally just mean kissing) of Peridot because "peridot is aroace!!", but it is not canon!! It's perfectly fine to headcanon her as aroace, I headcanon her as aroace myself but it is

NOT CANON

Plus kissing is not remotely sexual, even if it isn't just a quick peck and is more sensual!! And they seem to forget AROACE PEOPLE CAN HAVE SEX STILL?! It's basic knowledge??

They also freak out if they see Lapis shipped with anyone other than Peridot. I've seen so many fights between lapidot shippers and pearlapis shippers who are just trying to look at ship art they like??

The only other ship with Peridot that they seem to leave alone is amedot.

They also for some reason always hate Pearl??

voting for the riverdale girls in that poll, never seen it but i need lapidot to lose

you understand 🫡

[peridyke]

someone reblogged one of my posts and tagged it as anti lapidot 😭😭😭 girl I have bad news....................

[just-antithings]

a twitter anti that likes to say how lurking people’s old accounts makes you a creep and stalker: proceeds to do that with rebecca//sugar to find any NSFW art she did to expose her.

this same anti has also deadnamed and mocked jesse zuke for having a breakdown and for umm shipping lapidot? SU cringe crits are another level.

[maxbytes]

3, 4 and 7 if you have one! (for the ask game)

3. screenshot or description of the worst take you've seen on tumblr

i can't remember the details but there was a post about like how aging is a good thing and we shouldn't be anti-aging, and this other person goes, this is killing people! you want people to die? or something like that. does anybody know the post i'm talking about? i need to find it bc this is driving me crazy. wasn't the person that furry who uses fert/ferts pronouns that posted ferts fursona's asshole on someone else's post? or was it a different person? i swear to god it was the same person....

4. what was the last straw that made you finally block that annoying person?

i actually don't really block people for annoying me bc i find some level of entertainment from it. probably not healthy. i only block if they say something that makes me go "oh....ew, i can't tolerate that."

7. what character did you begin to hate not because of canon but because how how the fandom acts about them?

nobody kill me for this. lapis and spinel. in canon they're fine, but fanon of them drove me to resent them for a period of time. i have a complicated personal history involving me kindating a jasper kinnie who was obsessed with lapis and had a seething hatred for lapidot, and all that led me to despise lapis all the more, which sounds SOOOO ridiculous after the fact lmfao. also all the stevinel stuff led me to hate seeing spinel fanworks altogether, but i'm over that now. it's not the character's fault, it's just the association.

Fuck it. Proship ask meme. All of them.

Man 😂 ripping off the bandaid, huh

I answered 9 and 15 here, and 10, 11, 12 and 14 here.

1.) What is your favorite problematic theme/trope that appears in a lot of your ships?

Age gap and power imbalance abuse :) the power imbalance creates interesting dynamics and conflicts, and the age gap... well it's just sexy :P

2.) Are there any problematic tropes that squick you out?

Incest, especially if depicted as wholesome or hot. This kind of alienates me from the proship community because incest is super popular (obviously, this is where the shippers flock) and I'm here like, good for you, but no thank you get it out of my sight 😂

3.) First problematic ship since you joined the proship community?

Sonegg? I don't consider myself a member of the proship community, but it was my very first "what is wrong with me" ship lol

4.) First ever problematic ship? (you didn't have to know it was problematic then)

See above. I knew it was "wrong", but hey, I've always been a weirdo.

5.) Ship you don't think it all that problematic, but the rest of your fandom hates?

... see above ��� Sonegg is super tame compared to some of the other stuff I'm into, and I don't even feel the age gap in their case.

Oh, and Baroryuu, of course. I mean, it has some problematic aspects (Barok's very offensive comments towards Ryuu for a good chunk of his screentime), but I still think the character development of the two is strong enough to make them cute by the end.

6.) Cutest, most vanilla ship you are into.

Sonamy. They're adorable, and that's all they need to be. Even if I disagree with some of the popular takes :P Knuxamy to a lesser extent, I don't know if people have a problem with it... if only because it's a rarepair fhdufhdskj. but they cute too. power duo :D

And of course, Hectaly, who are 100% canon and wholesome and 💖

7.) Ship the antis in your fandom like, but you think is hella problematic?

uhhhhhh well I have many fandoms. I haven't bitched about fan-favorite Lapidot in years, so I might as well now: I relate too much with Peridot having to bend herself backwards to not upset Lapis, only to see herself abandoned by her best friend in a traumatic way, to think of them as wholesome when Lapis didn't even apologize for fleeing like she did.

8.) Ship that is (presented as) cute in canon/fanon, but you think is problematic anyway.

Lenector, as I have extensively explained by now :) and Lapidot as above. Catradora too, even if I'm not super into She-Ra - Catra's abuse of Adora is too extensive to be brushed aside in the last season alone.

13.) Rec a dead dove fic!

I mentioned a dark Lenector fic in the second ask I linked. Here it is <3 It's Hector suffering from severe PTSD and disassociation as Lenore keeps using him as a sex slave. This is the stuff I love, a mind scarred by trauma, even if the ending is not what I hoped for. (also "evil Lenore"? please this is her canon behavior)

[ghalind]

Finally someone else who hates lapidot. Like sorry you can't let storyboarders insert their ship into the show but then claim she's aroace after the fact. It's just such a fuckin insult and it genuinely makes me hate the ship.

YES THANK YOU

Peridot is honestly one of my favorite characters from like...anything, so seeing an incredibly toxic ship involving her be so popular causes me physical pain
