Uh...I highly doubt it.

I think it'd be interesting if Lapis and/or Peridot reformed offscreen, resulting in Steven having to find out what happened after the fact.

A hypothetical scenario I came up with:
- the barn crew learns that Steven was taken by Homeworld
- Lapis relapses, goes ballistic (possibly wrecking some of the barn in the process)
- Peridot tries to talk her down, says the wrong things, causing an argument
- things get out of hand, Lapis poofs Peridot on accident
- she calms down, but realizes what she's done and flies off out of guilt
- when Steven gets home, Peridot's recovered, has a new appearance, and is working on the dropship
- but Lapis is still AWOL

Lapis would leave her gem where ever it poofed, unless it would be dangerous.
When wouldn't it be at least a little dangerous? If a sapient antagonist poofed Peridot, they'd likely try to shatter her gemstone or take her prisoner. If a non-sapient one did, a gemstone left on the ground is endangered by any continued fighting. Even if there wasn't more fighting in the vicinity, there's still a risk of it being stepped, picked at/thrown around by animals (or people) attracted to shiny objects, etc.

Pearl and Amethyst's gemstones were both brought to Steven's house when waiting for them to regenerate. Leaving a poof gem's gemstone just lying around seems analogous to seeing someone faint and just walking away (minus any medical reason not to move them), which is to say astoundingly inconsiderate.

At best Peridot waits on the barn floor.
Don't think Lapis is so rude, or so much of a slob. that she couldn't at least set someone's gemstone on a chair or table.

Thumped: for switching the discussion from the topic to a person. Doesn't take many of this kind of thump to bring a suspension. Stay on the topic, not the people in the discussion.

Today is apparently Rebecca Sugar's birthday. I think it's her thirtieth.

Only 30! She has many more years of being a cartoonist ahead of her. I can't wait to see Steven Universe season 44, when Steven questions the motivations of his mom and mopes around a bit about it.

Here's something I hadn't considered before,when Navy got her ship and presumably made it back to Homeworld she probably told them Lapis and Peridot were on Earth,so maybe Homeworld sent someone to deal with them while Topaz and Aquamarine carried out their mission

[up] I guess the main trio could have been to distracted by the dropship to check with them but I doubt Homeworld would care enough to send someone after them.

Remember. Homeworld still thinks earthbound Gems are doomed. No reason to go out of their way to rid themselves of Gems that are going to die anyway. Rose Quartz is an exception due to the desire of both Diamonds for closure.

I dunno,I can see Yellow being vindictive enough to send someone after Peridot,given that Peridot insulted her and survived the exploding communicator,and Lapis gets involved somehow

I don't think Yellow knows Peridot survived the explosion though...

If Yellow Diamond wanted to do anything to Peridot but leave her stranded on Earth, the Ruby Squad would have come for her and not just Jasper. Even detonating the communicator could have been as much about information security as an attempt to kill Peridot.

Homeworld still thinks earthbound Gems are doomed.
Aquamarine even told the Crystal Gems she'd leave them alone, and they're considered even bigger traitors than Lapis and Peridot. Which, in hindsight, makes Peridot Taking the Heat for the ship crash pointless.

On a related note, it appears Homeworld gave up on retrieving Jasper. The Ruby Squad seemingly went straight back to Homeworld and stayed there despite not accomplishing their mission, and I don't think any of them found out she was corrupted.

[up]Rose Quartz being alive and getting captured were probably big enough deals that Jasper, a near perfect soldier but in the end a mere soldier nonetheless, was forgotten in the kerfuffle.
