While Gertrude was rattling of her questions, Kat was fielding some of her own. *Why did you laugh when Gertrude called me your owner? It's not particularly nice and she was clearly doing it on purpose. I almost thought she was provoking me until you started laughing. *
[No that's not it at all. Don't you remember that talk with Vivian? She was… implying certain things about our relationship. Which of course, are somewhat true even if she was guessing the details were wrong. Still, I laughed because I don't find her all that incorrect. Despite the entirely non-sexual connotation I AM your familiar. If I wasn't as smart that would make you my owner, even if most people don't treat familiars that way.]
