Hayley didn't mind the delayed responses or immediate subject changes. She could tell he was far more upset than he let on and it was only Mark's words in the back of her mind telling her to leave it alone that prevented her from pushing the subject. Instead, she waited for her answer and gave a grimace to match his tension. Bart didn't die, from what she could tell, but it was very clear to her that he had been hurt a lot and that Bart didn't tell her that hurt her a little, even though she got not wanting to talk about it.
It took a lot not to push Kon for details on what happened. Instead, his new words distracted her and she tensed herself, suddenly wary. Whatever he was leading up to couldn't be a good thing. She set her coffee down, suddenly not thirsty, barely taking her eyes away from him. "Okay."
