According to the laws of physics, a blow like Jasper’s should have shattered a sword that looks as flimsy as Lambert’s ... but they’re not at all operating on the laws of physics, are they? Magical girls follow their own rules, and the sword catches the helmet with a thunderclap, blade shining bright. The shockwave of impact may just blow Peridot back if she doesn’t watch herself!

Pig, at least for now, is just observing. As a familar, perhaps, she has some insights into the respective powers of the Guardians clashing in front of them.
