It's hard to say no when there's no one here telling her what a bad idea this is. Telling her that they're terrible for each other. Lapis' hands ball into fists at her side unconsciously.

"Don't hurt Steven. Ever." That's.. pathetically her only request she can think of. Mostly because she doesn't think that Jasper would actually agree to it. If she says no, then that will make it so much easier on her, because Jasper is a Quartz, and what good are Quartz's if not for protecting?

Lapis knows exactly how vulnerable she is.
