"I guess if we're all sharing then… Sylvie do you want to talk about your own tragic backstory?" asked Vivian. Kat froze at the question. *I… oh dear. I… hmm… shit.* Kat actually knew Sylvie's 'tragic backstory' already and wasn't terribly impressed with the flippant way Vivian asked. Finding her adoptive mother's eyes though… Kat saw nothing but utmost serious within them. Despite how Vivian had asked, this wasn't a joke. What Kat didn't really was that her flippant way of asking was Vivian's way of giving Sylvie an out. A simple joke in return would let her know the topic was not to be touched. Her eyes betrayed the seriousness of the question.
Kat missed this of course, and offered, "I can… I can tell Vivian and Callisto for you if you want Sylvie. You don't have to be the one to do this."
