Peridot wasn't thinking that exactly as she took the phone-thing from Rufus, blinking and... pointing it at him. She was pretty sure it was at him. She'd never handled one of these things before.
It was possible that there was going to be the tiniest bit of a little green thumb in the frame. It was going to stay there until the drill broke through the asthenosphere and into a layer of dense rock. The few remaining fusion experiments were thrown off as the drill started to shake. Sorry, Rufus. Peridot was dropping your phone in favor of grabbing the steering controls so that they didn't get torn apart at the last moment.

"We're hitting some denser rock! This is it!"
Brace yourselves, folks.
