After that the discussion continued but Kat didn't really participate all that much. They went into the details but Kat couldn't see them as anything other than excessive. Thyme's challenges were unique by design and trying to plan for the likely non-existent next time didn't really seem worth it. Especially when it was likely they'd all be stronger in the unlikely event it did actually come around again.
Lily made a few attempts to get at the paper book but it was easy to fend her off… physically at least. The mental pleadings were harder to ignore but Kat just sent back retaliatory feelings of love and affection, something Lily had no defence against either. In the end, Lily decided to pretend to sulk. The feelings of joy and love that continued to radiate across the link were 'clearly' false, Lily was pouting, and wasn't happy with Kat at all.
