"I know it's bad, but I still... I still want my powers back, Pearl." She wraps her arms around herself. "I know there's humans that are in danger here, and I know that it's because of my powers, but... It's been a real long time since I've been able to fly." Since the mirror. Since Malachite. Being stuck on the ground doesn't exactly make her feel safe or secure, especially when the only times she's been stuck for an extended period of time hasn't ever really gone well for her.
