Happi Bananaverisaruh

She quietly exited the temple, confident that at this time of night, neither Pearl nor Amethyst would think to look for her out here. She sat on the porch, head bent down toward her thighs, hands clasped tightly together as though that would prevent their tremor. They shook so hard that trembles would run up the lengths of her arms and cause her body to quake.

The visions of now impossible futures still burned bright behind all three of her eyes. She couldn't help but push her knuckles into her temples hoping that perhaps the pain might ease the tension vibrating through her whole body.

It was all over. Nothing had happened. Everything was fine and they were all going to be okay. They had lived to see another day. Pearl's gem was whole, Amethyst was going to be just fine, and she was still together. She had made a mistake, one that had had nearly three-hundred and forty two life-shattering consequences. Pearl and Amethyst hadn't caught on, to pumped with their close victory to even question how close they had all come to being shattered alive.

It's been too long since she's been this unstable. It hasn't been this bad since Steven's birth. It had only been a few years and though things had gotten better, the Crystal Gems needed still needed a strong leader.

She needed to be strong, needed to keep it together. She couldn't fall apart now. If she did, she could already see the dysfunction it would cause. Pearl would start questioning the tentative stability and she would either hide in her room or suffocate Steven with attention. Amethyst would try to be here, try to be strong, but eventually disappear to vent. Steven wouldn't understand, it had been two years since he'd met Ruby and Sapphire, and he'd practically forgotten them. He would be scared, he would be so worried that he'd cry at the littlest thing.

She sat out there for a little while longer, slowly working with both of her components until a timid calm settled into her worn body. Garnet sighed heavily. She rubbed hard at her face with a sniffle, about to move back into the house, finally feeling calmer and more herself than she had been when something soft pressed against her cheek.

It smelled like…baby powder and strawberry lotion. She didn't turn because Steven climbed onto her lap only a second later, clad in only his night shirt and diaper. He dabbed at one of her cheeks with one of his stuffed animals, where she had unknowingly shed a few tears.

"Steven…how do you get out of your crib?" She sniffled, wiping at her eye from under her visor. Despite the fact that Steven's almost outgrown his crib, if told not to get out, he didn't attempt an escape.

"Don' cry Garnet." Steven whimpered, his own breath hitching into a sob. "Don' cry."

"I'm not crying." Garnet cleared her throat.

"Yes are, bad to lie." Steven clumsily removed her visor, gently placing it on the ground, where it fizzled out of existence, and resumed mopping up her tears.

"You'll get your bear dirty." Garnet sighed. "You should be sleeping. It's past your bed time."

"Wha' happen? Didja fall, or someone mean cause Tven will talk them." Steven assured her, cradling her cheek with his tiny palm with a fierce gleam in his eyes. He couldn't even walk five feet without stumbling and he was already so much like his mother

"No…just a bad mission today." Garnet shifted uncomfortably, wrapping her arms around him. "A scary mission."

"Is'kay. Tven potect you." Steven kissed her nose.

"Thank you, little boy." Garnet cooed, pressing their faces together. "Were you upset cause I was crying? Is that why you got out of your crib?"

Steven nodded, his lip pouting as he remembered. "No like cry. Don' cry Garnet." He wrapped his teeny arms around her neck.

"I'm sorry, I'll try not to in the future." Garnet patted his little back.

"No." Steven poked her cheek with a frown. "Iskay cry, nes' time doe jus come to me so I hug it all betta'."

Garnet couldn't help the chuckle that bubbled up in her chest. It was something she often said to Steven; who was a magnet for all sort of trouble which caused all sorts of tears. As long as he could find her, she'd do her best to help hug it all away.

"You don't have to do that."

"Want to." Steven mumbled. "I lub you Garnet. When…uh you lub someones, you gotsa take care of 'em. You take care me so I take care you."

Garnet couldn't help the growing grin on her face, unable to resist the urge to smother him in kisses, despite his squeaks of protest. "Oh, have I ever told you how much I love you, little one?"

"Yes, evey day. At bekfast, at naptime, lunch, dinnah an…probably all da time cause you weally weally lub Tven an'-."

Garnet stood up, carrying the chatter bug back into the house feeling completely and utterly stable.

A/N: Three posts in one day, pretty good if I do say so myself. It only seemed appropriate that the fiftieth chapter be of my favorite mom and her little boy.

Fun fact before you drown in wonderful people: My grandmother actually has read this and left a review on it. Her username is down there too - thanks Nanny!.

Lastly, before I list it all. If you pressed the favorite button after 9:00pm central time, you probably won't see your name, sorry. And thank you wonderful peeps for reading all these weirdo baby drabbles for a year. Thanks for all the awesome reviews and prompts. I have read every single one and they all (even the ones just demanding for moar) made my day. Without further ado, there are 460 people who I would like mention (sorry for the formatting, as soon as I uploaded it, it went bonkers):
