She was a better take on mental health than all of Future
Was it accurate metacommentary on PTSD?
>thousands of years
Only mean nothing to old gems. Thousands of years to a pretty fresh gem like Spinel is a fucking long time.

Still kinda bummed how she wasn't used that much in Future
Why would a gem not have the equivalent of a sleep mode for long term waiting. Surely Spinel could've "hibernated" in place until Pink woke her up.
The problem with shit like SU is that it portrays everyone who has PTSD and BPD as pussies who's problems can be solved by being loved.
In reality no amount of love can change someone with a mental illness. If they want help, they have to actually think about why they act the way they do and find a way to change it. Whether this be meds or a therapist depends on the individual.
Because if she was in sleep mode she wouldn't be playing the game.
Except "being" loved didn't fix Spinel, it made it worse. She wanted to make others happy but also get attention while doing it. The ending is literally just enabling, not fixing the problem.
Recent trauma meaning the movie covers Steven gave a message to the galaxy and Spinel heard it, changed form and came charging. Those few thousand years she wasn't doing anything.
Spinel didn't really get over it. She still has issues she was just putting them to the side for Steven's sake.
