"Uh..." Rue blinked. Then she blinked again.
Was Towhee messing with her? Rue didn't think Towhee would-- she had to know it was a fraught subject-- but... really?
Rue sucked in a breath. She didn't know what to say. She'd heard that Towhee herself had taken up with a much younger man, and so Rue didn't want to say anything offensive... but stars! She'd helped care for Fig when he was practically still getting his food chewed for him.
"That's a tough one to wrap my mind around," Rue admitted diplomatically, letting her breath out with a small laugh. It was also a moot point. Young adults like Figment had minds of their own, and Rue wouldn't be surprised at all to learn that Figment's plans for himself were very different from the plans his mother had for him. Kids had the darnedest way of ruining even the most well-meaning, carefully-thought-out plans.
