Kate watches the girl, trying to get a sense of what it was that caused the blonde to cover it up with a smile, but since she's unsure as to how to broach the subject, she offers a smile of her own: ]
A bit? I'll hang on tight to you, just in case. I don't want to splatter ungracefully on the floor in front of the locals. [ she gives the vehicle an appreciative look and then just takes the dive without looking back to Steph ]
Hey, Steph? [ there's a little something nagging at the back of Kate's head, a little voice asking her why does it matter so much what the other girl thinks, she's just a new friend ] If I say things that make you feel uncomfortable, call me on them, okay? I'm a big girl and I can take whatever people dish out. [ She looks over again and then it occurs to her she wonders why it hadn't smacked her in the face.
Steph reminds her of Cassie.
It's more than the surface details: blonde hair, that cheerful disposition. It's the witty comebacks, even if they're not exactly in sync. Or maybe it's just that Kate hasn't admitted that talking to people who might otherwise be dead has raised flags of warning because, let's face it -- it has crossed her mind. She just hasn't voiced 'Do you think the Turtle might bring Cassie here?' out loud because its not exactly a thing you say. ]
