"Wh-- AUGH--!" Pumpkin basically sails into Peridot and knocks her flat on her back, and it takes her a second to process what's happening. There's no misidentifying that slimy orange tongue though.
"Pumpkin!? PUMPKIN!" Peridot snatches up the little dog and holds her straight up in the air triumphantly, overjoyed. She can barely even start getting to the bottom of the emotions that are overtaking her when her pokemon scuttles over top of her as well, half knocking the wind out of her.
"Oof-- STUMPY! Oh thank the stars, YOU'RE BOTH OKAY!" the gem practically wails, and she sits up and squeezes them both to her chest, and there's such an overwhelming tone of relief in her voice. Is she crying? MAYBE. ONLY A LITTLE. Given how everything else has gone so far, she half expected them to be lost in the Prince's realm forever.
