"At least we managed to get the tree put out, though I feel a bit bad." Pearl said, looking back at the tree as they walked back towards the warp pad.
""And I got to see you guys in action WITHOUT being in actual danger!" Steven said happily, which, though the three gems were a bit embarrassed to have been bested by the corruption, at least they had managed to make Steven happy.
