I think that it would be impossible to hide any type of animosity from the "bigsisters". Sure they may not tell you, but they probably know what's going on. As far as rectifying the situation, the only thing I can think of to do is to actually sit down and talk to your "linesisters" to get things out in the open and to try to work things out. Sure they still may not like each other a whole lot but at least they might start to get along and be civil and decent towards one another.
I also have edited my post per your request, Ms. AKA2D'91
