Peridot lets that information wash over her, lets it seep into her consciousness where she can piece it together with what she already knows. It... sure answers more than a few of her lingering questions.

It also makes her fucking furious. For a second, it looks like she's on the verge of exploding at Childermass; her jaw clenches, smoke trickles out of the corners of her mouth. But... She doesn't. Not yet. She's still trying to process all the implications... And to be honest, she's not really sure if she's actually angry at Childermass, or if she's more angry at Lambert. Somehow, she doesn't think it was the Acquisitioner's idea to make the kind of gigantic scene that the Nightrider ultimately wound up causing.

And that you helped contribute to, some small voice mutters in the back of her head.

"...Well that certainly explains a few things," she says stiffly after a moment, when she finally feels like she can keep a reasonably level tone. Her jaw is stiff with the effort, as she lets out a hissing sigh through her teeth. "He was fighting with Sans. He... Why didn't he warn me that he was going to do something that stupid!?"
