[Steven's horror at this sight is twofold: for one, Yellow Diamond totally just annihilated the cinder sprite working the admissions counter, and for the other, the fact that she just did that has pretty much guaranteed that she's going to get contracted to work at the carnival.
Which is about one of the most inconvenient things Steven can imagine.
So, with that probably already being a thing, all there's left to do is damage control. Man, just about anyone else he knows of would be fine, but a diamond being here at all is enough to be pants-shittingly terrifying.
Steven's best effort to stop her while also avoiding dying results in him doing something probably stupid - which is, diving right in there with a float jump and bringing out his shield to block her from the entrance.]

NO! STOP IT!
