A joke? Peridot looks baffled, but steels her resolve when she looks at the other crew members that Lapis is referring to, directing her sneering expression at them instead. "Tcchhh! they can deal with it. Most of them are stinky, flimsy humans anyway."

Of course, Peridot talks a big game, but she seems a little bit more tense all of a sudden nonetheless. She's reasonably certain that she can take a bunch of flesh-bags like that... but she's also not made for combat, and has a healthy fear of getting in over her head.
