The moment Cloud realized she was in the past, she had been in bed, staring at the ceiling. Again.

Major rewrite of [In Which Cloud Travels Back in Time (Again)].

so you know in Drift Away, when at the conclusion Spinel has her memories restored and she reverted to her scared/corrupt form? For the longest time it peeved me off that her gem cheesing turns, instead of do a cool lil flip like Rose/Pink Diamonds diamond. Like why even? All this beautiful animation, style choices, incredible scenes.

And her gem does a 180. Mood killer.

Then I had this epiphany. And now I regret so much. I’m screaming, utter perfection *chef kiss*

Her gem stone turns, because time has run out.

That’s what it means. Her gem stone is a metaphor for a clock and its hands, and all the time she could have had with Pink/Rose, is gone. Forever. All the experiences, growth, the learning and positive evolution Spinel could’ve taken part in with the Crystal Gems and Steven, she was denied. That is the permanence and meaning of time, a concept usually beyond the gems given that they do not age or die. But in a sense Rose/Pink did age and die, when she became pregg with Steven. This is the meaning behind her gem stone turning clockwise.
