Pumpkin just barks and wags her weird vine tail, apparently taking no offense whatsoever at the comment. She knows she's vastly superior to Steven's other creations. Peridot tells her so all the time!
Peridot looks at the joint and considers it for a moment, before shaking her head no. Fae weed does actually affect her (and unlike with standard alcohol she doesn't need to mimic an organic to get the effects of it, thanks to it's magical potency), but... she's tried it before. The first (and last) time that she took a hit, she wound up spending the next 36 hours just totally fucked up. And by the time she finally reclaimed her sobriety? She'd gained her first set of physical changes. So yeah, she's not really willing to risk that again.
What she will do is slide off the poor piece of furniture that she's currently misusing, and pick up that bottle of faerie ale, considering it thoughtfully. She takes a breath, shaky with anger. "Basically. That's what I had to do during that awful hunt, when we..." Pause. Well. When they murdered the hell out of Lamboart. But hopefully Strange doesn't need her to specify that. "I had to accompany her to make sure she did things properly. And she HATES Steven and Lapis. Like, really, really, REALLY hates them."
