Oh... right.

[That gives Steven a great deal of pause. He'd been considering the same thing, ever since talking to Blue Diamond... he hadn't even considered asking for something of that magnitude. Probably because usually bringing people back from the dead like that doesn't seem possible. Maybe gems work by different rules, though?

There's so much that he could ask for, though. Couldn't he ask for Earth's protection from Homeworld? Or something that would allow him to heal the corrupted gems? There are so many things. The idea of staying here only one year seems impossible, sometimes.]

There are so many things we could ask for... [He sounds more subdued now, like the concept makes him uncomfortable.]

There's just so much that still needs to be fixed, and it doesn't feel like I can do anything about it, back home. If Pink Diamond really came back... would it really be that bad? It's been so...

[It's caused so much pain.]

[periphrasing]

[Peridot frowns at him.]

I'm not saying we undo that. [Muttering:] Mostly because I don't think the Ringmaster would allow us to counteract another person's contract by having her do the exact opposite. We wish for something to prove your innocence, or make it so that the Diamonds all collectively forget about Earth. Something like that!

[starseedling]

That second one sounds nice, actually.

[Steven frowns, looking contemplative as he stares off at the floor.]

Even if it means having to work here longer...

[Which he's sort of uncomfortable about, at the moment. A year is still a long time for him.]

[periphrasing]

Well it's not like you would have to be the one to make that contract, necessarily. Anyone else from our world could take on the burden just as easily. Like Pearl! You should ask Pearl. She's all about putting herself on the line to save the Earth and stuff like that, right?

[Hope you weren't expecting Peridot to suggest that she might do something altruistic herself, LOL.]
