No, Steven! [She exclaims, hands clasped tightly together. She looks between him and his outstretched hand and swallows thickly.] St-Steven, I'm sorry I- [She fumbles the words, shaking her head.] This wasn't your fault I should have... I should have been stronger. So you wouldn't have to be.
[She can't look at him then and chooses to look down at the wooden planks that line the boardwalk. Her hands shake.] I was foolish to even try to go back home... I should have known everything would have been different, but I... I wanted it so badly...
[She lets her hands fall to her sides, shoulders slumping.] You did nothing wrong, Steven... I'm the one who brought Homeworld here. I- I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, Steven.
