It's so sad. In a way I'm happy to see Peri being so positive about the Earth and actually having feelings for someone other than Steven but Lapis's conflict is too strong even for that. I'm very certain there will be something new about her soon, because she can't just stay hidden after all she has been through. I'm also very interested in the conflict having a defective diamond will have caused among her "equals". It seems it didn't make them change their ways, but it did leave an imprint in Blue.
And sadly no, there are no specific news about stable schedules :( We are at CN's mercy.
