"Yeah," Steven agrees, softly. He knows what Greg means, even if he tries really hard not to think that way. He's quiet for a while longer, until something worthwhile to say comes to mind.

"I got really scared about that one time, because, well..." He pauses, and then looks up at Greg for a second. "You know how Garnet can see the future? The first time she told me about that, I got all excited about it and started asking her all this stuff... and I never realized how many bad things could happen, before. I guess I just never thought about it, but Garnet sees that stuff all the time, and when she told me about it I got so scared, I totally freaked out!"

He pointedly neglects to tell Greg about how he got up on the roof in a thunder storm, because that was extremely silly and he still feels kind of embarrassed about it from time to time.

"But she told me that... even though lots of bad things could happen, I had to remember that I still had control over my own destiny, and to focus on the stuff I could control instead of the stuff I can't." He falls silent, briefly. "I don't know if it works the same way here, but... I think it probably does."
