Steven Universe

I'm starting to guess the surprise, Steven.

I told you to close your eyes!

Sorry.

Okay, wait here!

Surprise!

Hm.

We bought a boat!

Uh, correction... We rented a boat.

I may be rich, but buying a boat would be going

a bit overboard.

Ayyy.

Ayyyyy.

Ayyyyy!

Just a joke I picked up from some sailors.

They have a surprisingly clean sense of humor.

Steven, who is this?

Uh, Greg Universe.

You broke my leg trying to use the ocean

to fly back to your homeworld.

Lapis Lazuli. Nice to meet you.

Great! Well, I'll get the boat started.

So what do you think?

It's nice, Steven...

but I don't know.

Look, Lapis, I know you spent a really long time fused

with Jasper at the bottom of the ocean,

but you're not Malachite anymore.

And water is a part of who you are.

You can't let one bad experience take that away from you.

It was more than one.

Just give it a chance.

I promise we'll make this the most fun you've ever had.

Steven, I... don't deserve this.

Of course you do!

We even named her Li'l Lappy.

Okay. I'll give it a chance.

But, just one.

Whoa!

You two ready to set sail?

Aye, aye, Captain!

Yes.

Full speed ahe... Whoa!

Ah, geez, you think anyone will notice?

Wow, I think I did a number on that dock.

Maybe somebody else should take a shot at being captain.

What do you say, Captain Lazuli?

I shouldn't.

Go for it, Lapis.

Don't put me in charge!

Oh, sorry.

I mean, y-you shouldn't trust me with the boat.

Uh, that's okay. Don't worry about it.

We can all be first mates so there's no pressure.

Only fun stuff today!

Lapis, you can still wear the hat, if you want.

Thanks, but I'm not putting that on my body.

Let's set a course for f-u-u-un!

Dad! Dad!

Hey, you two. Finally get enough of that horn?

What?!

What are you doing?

Catching fish.

Oh, I can help!

What the?!

Whoa.

That's a pretty uh... fancy way of catching fish.

That's 'cause Lapis is supa' strong!

Well, I, uh, appreciate the gesture,

but I-I think it would be safer to stick

to the old-fashioned way of doing it.

Oh, uh... sure.

Whoa!

Wow, Lapis! That was ama... zing...

So, how do you fish the old-fashioned way?

Oh, it's pretty simple.

You start with a rod,

and you put a hook on the end of your line.

And then, when you feel a nibble,

you reel it in.

And there it is.

You've caught yourself a fish to eat!

But why would a fish ever bite a hook?

You got to bait it... Put something on it

you know it wants, like a worm or a $20 bill.

Here, I'll show you.

Fishing.

When does the fish part happen?

Well, sometimes it isn't about the fish you keep,

but the company you catch.

Whoa! I got a bite.

Lapis, here! Give it a try!

Hold it just like that and reel it in slowly.

Like this?

You got it. It looks like a big one!

Whoa!

Lapis!

Steven!

You got it, Lapis!

Reel it in!

It's... pulling... so hard!

Looks like this pole rental turned

into a pole purchase.

But you did a great job tangling with that beast.

Y-Yeah.

Don't worry about that one getting away.

Oh, thank you.

Welp, that's my adventure quota for the day.

I'll be at the controls. Holler if you need me.

Yes, sir! Lapis, what do you...

Lapis?

Hey. Whatcha doing?

I just thought I'd sit for a bit.

You looked like a real pro fisher
