Even if that's not your intent, some people can interpret it that way. Whether that's the case with Lepus or not I couldn't say for sure, as I wasn't there, but... since you said they made a... "stank face" at the comparison, something about it probably didn't sit right with them.
[a beat.]
What would that sort of face sound like, anyway? ...or was practically being able to hear it just an expression...
[she shoves her hands in her pockets. in that same short tone, because she's still annoyed:]
I tried reaching out to them again after they threw me into a wall and put a knife to my neck and they just told me I can't just win their friendship like some sort of prize. [this - very clearly hurt her feelings, but she refuses to admit it.] It doesn't matter. None of you are here to be friends with us. And I don't want to hear another lecture, so save it.
I'm over it. [mostly. she's kind of just internalized that it was her fault so] It was during the week we were just broadcasting our memories, it doesn't matter now.
[ABSOLUTELY NOT she grabs their wrist.] Stop, don't - fuck this up for me, we finally had one nice conversation and I don't want to ruin it because I tattled on them!
[the shadow portal closes up while it's only half-formed, and vulpecula pauses.]
It's not tattling. If someone talking honestly about what someone else did makes people mad, it's not the fault of the person who talked about it, it's the fault of the person who did the awful thing!

Don't know. It was just like that. [she's short, ears pressed back against her skull.]

[vulpecula, watching lup shut down, is giving off concerned vibes.]
...something clearly happened to make you want to ask about how Lepus and I became friends all of a sudden. What happened, Lup?

[they huff]
I'm going to go shove them into a wall and point a blade at their throat, see how they like it.

unfortunately, they are in fact creating a shadow portal they should be stopped maybe]

Plus, I have to see them every week.

So if you're wanting to move past it, and they're not dwelling on it either, I think you can.

I don't play with people like that. [her one feeling ):]
