Might also be a case of words understood to be there, but not there. It could be "Of course [they'd say that]" for instance.
"Of course," answered Kat with a nod.

So it ruins in the family then?
Roxy rolled her eyes, "Regardless of my husband's weird fetishes," "Oi!" "we didn't like each other as babies. Or maybe we did and the hatred built up later? As I said the story changes whenever we ask about it, even to this day. Though my own parents have passed away, and Byron left us a few years ago. Tiffany is still alive and telling tall tales. I'd worry for her memory actually, if she wasn't already in the habit of just making things up,

I think that's going overboard, from disagreement to harassment. While it might be clearly not from your perspective, that doesn't mean it's right to be rude to or harass those who ask.
"In this case, I would hazard a guess that Vivian mentioned it in a letter she drafted but forgot to send, and then believed that her parents would already know she adopted you both in subsequent letters. I imagine she mentions you both, but without context you may just be new friends or short term charity projects. I… may need to get confirmation about this. They will be awfully annoyed to know that we celebrated, what is essentially their grandchild's birthday without even informing them they had a grandchild,"

It's a way of both resenting the remark, and also admitting it's true
*I resemble that remark.*

She does make a good argument here
[Bah, I got immortality, the best girlfriend ever, and an adorable sister-in-law. And that's all just in the last few months. Anything anyone tried to get me for my birthday would've been a massive disappointment comparatively. Plus, I'm pretty sure you'd spend way too much money if I didn't just ask for something specific.]

Couldn't they ride the snake while Kat drags it? I would think it's durable enough that a little dragging wouldn't hurt it
"The final option I see is spending the time to cut off the entire head as is, and try to sell that. It'll have most of the good parts, a good bit of scales, but more likely some noble would love to have it preserved for a wall or something. If we're really lucky their might even be a bounty on it… but that's wishful thinking."

Not like they could really rest anyways. They're in a swamp.
The sun set completely some time later, and there was an unspoke agreement between everyone to just keep going. There was no argument, no words. The group simply kept moving. Nobody felt the need to ask for a break. Kat knew she could fly all night like this and Lily was already sleep. So it was really just down to the cultivators and they weren't giving Kat any signs they wanted to stop. There wasn't even a subtle nod. They just kept running.

I do not, please enlighten me
He lied to her then? interesting...
The man looked at her carefully for a few seconds, letting the silence stretch before he checked some paper that was hiding somewhat out of sight from where Kat was standing, a few steps back. "While she is indeed in at the moment, you'll have to wait. She is quite busy at the moment," was the response.

Make it into a protein smoothie!
Then a few minutes after that as she realised she didn't rightly know the answer to that question. "I'm not sure either Lily. I… well I have had my body since birth. I'm also not sure if it's even possible to turn my body to ashes. Additionally, as a medical professional I have a much better idea of both the security we have here, and of the consequences of letting my body fall into the hands of others, which, actually now that I think of it… would be much worse then yours, simply due to power disparity. Still, I trust my Faction to keep it safe if they stored my body. So… probably storage or incineration. As much as keeping it may sound nice to me on paper I know I'm not strong enough to protect it properly"

Today I learned! Thanks!
Vivian let out a puff of air. "Honestly… hard to say Kat. Hard to say. The fact that you're asexual means probably not, in the grander scheme of things…"

Lilly, get yourself a glass of water! You thirsty, girl!
"I don't really care if you stay annoyed at them. I told them. I told them multiple times. Mum refused to move on really. She was scared that I was just one or two comments away from turning into a crying mess again. Sure I had nightmares occasionally which I bet didn't help, but they certainly weren't about you." Lily paused to say the next part under her breath "No, it was other dreams you featured prominently in," so of course Kat heard it perfectly well. "But she was ruled by her fear. So very scared that history was going to repeat itself…

Wonder if Kat will ask for the warm soup again
Butler Thyme cracked their knuckles and continued speaking, "Food and drink will be provided in the cafeteria, it is located on the East side of the ground floor, though additional seating can be found on the roof and your balconies, so you will not be confined to the cafeteria for meals. The menu can be found next to the serving station, and if you wish to make any requests, either for entire dishes or substitutes, you will need to provide me with six hours' notice. Meet back here one hour after the lunch bell has been called for you first task,"
