"Am I the only one curious why Livy reached out to him instead of her fellow cast members?"
"If I remembered correctly, Skylar had once lectured Livy to the point where she cried…"
Seeing all the curious and skeptical comments flooding the livestream chat, Olivia quickly jumped in to explain, "Whatever happened between me and Skylar is ancient history. He's my mystic arts consultant these days.
"Any time I run into trouble with something spiritual, he's the first person I call."
It was a subtle way of justifying why her first instinct had been to reach out to Skylar. She sounded confident enough, but those who really knew her could still catch that brief flicker of guilt in her eyes.
Skylar, on the other hand, didn't seem to care about the barrage of commentary. He got straight to the point. "I've got the gist of it. Send me a photo or video of your friend's cat."
The viewers couldn't help but lament at how classic he was behaving, still as stiff and serious as ever.
The requester finally snapped out of her excitement, as Skylar's no-nonsense tone somehow made her nervous, too.
She scrambled to switch screens and quickly opened her friend's Instagram to find the cat videos.
"This is my friend's account. It's filled with cat videos. Can you see them clearly, Skylar?"
Everyone's attention followed the phone screen as the requester played a video from her friend's social media. Since it was a screen share, the quality wasn't crystal clear.
Still, it was enough to see the cat being its usual adorable self. In one quick flash, the cat's owner, the requester's friend, appeared briefly in the background.
Shannon had been casually watching like the others, but something in the video made her eyes narrow slightly.
Without saying a word, she pulled out her phone and typed the account name into the platform's search bar to look it up directly.
Her actions didn't go unnoticed, as a number of viewers picked up on it.
