Dear Reader(s),

I'd first like to thank you for reading this story, as well as my friends Erin, Dana, and TurkeySM for Beta reading it before I posted it for the public to see. Chapter 10 was co-written by the aforementioned Erin, which seems appropriate considering how Steven Universe focuses on fusion, and in that way, we fused together to create that chapter. Emerald, of course, is hers.

It's actually been quite a long time since I've been this pumped to write anything. After watching the season finale, I absolutely fell in love with this show (though I liked it plenty before), and Jasper as well. She is absolutely my favorite character and in writing this I wanted to redeem her in what ways I could. I wish we got more of her, because I think she's incredible. Though, maybe if we did, this story wouldn't exist at all. After all, its purpose was for me to experience a side of Jasper that I desperately wanted to see. And I know that something will probably happen in Steven Universe to make probably 90% of this fanfiction incorrect, (Especially with Steven Bomb 2.0 starting tomorrow!) so I hope future readers (you know, all two of you) will forgive me for going against whatever the future cannon may be.

Thank you again for taking your time to read and review if you decided to do so. I can't thank you guys enough and another thank you for the people who initially read this train wreck and removed the typos and made it a better story.

With love,

-Pappillon
