Jasper isn't sure what exactly she was expecting, but it wasn't this. As Steven leans forward to lick her, she goes extremely tense, and then extremely cross-eyed -- and then the damage to her gem eases away, the unspeakable pain of the crack beginning to subside. Her gem is whole again, and her form shimmers, correcting the errors in her limb orientation. The stability she's been missing since she reformed also allows a couple of new changes to assert themselves, but Jasper doesn't even begin to have time to notice them, because the next thing she knows Steven is collapsing on her. Good thing her hands are in the right place now so she can catch him???

She frowns down at his limp form. It's... surreal. Sure, Steven is inexcusably small and weak, but seeing him this defenseless doesn't feel right. It makes her feel weird and conflicted in a way she can't quite explain and also really doesn't like.

With his unconscious body in her hands, she rises to her feet and scans the room for Herbert. When she spots him she barks, "Hey! You!" because she doesn't remember what his name is.
