[Lapis is silent another long moment. Peridot's discomfort is obvious, and it's never a good sign when she doesn't want to talk about something, but in this case Lapis already knows some of the reasons. She's not terribly comfortable with it either, except that in her case she's already so uncomfortable with everything that it can apparently function as some sort of stable equilibrium. It's very hard to find the line between 'addressing what needs to be addressed' and 'just making everyone feel bad', and she's prepared to lay off if needed. But she's going to have to ask sooner or later.]
