Phox was worried. Rue shifted closer to Towhee, silently communicating that she would be near, and she would be watchful. Rue and Towhee had practically killed themselves getting the Hobbit Hole in tip-top shape so quickly, and Rue wasn't about to abandon the underground sanctuary just because Reyes came back. There would be plenty of room there for all of them, including Aunty Woo.

Ultimately, Phox left the decision up to Towhee, which was enormously generous of him. He was the one who had suffered the most due to Reyes's actions-- at least Towhee still had her puppies. Phox had been robbed of both his children and his mate. Rue dipped her muzzle in admiration, then turned to Towhee to hear her decision. 

Towhee signed some quick ptero. Rue caught the "wait, where is--" part, but she didn't recognize the sign for the name. Rue's brow furrowed. Was someone missing? And stars, was Towhee looking green or what?

Towhee's ptero became even more rushed, and Rue couldn't keep up. Quite suddenly, Towhee was gone. Rue followed without hesitation, concerned for her friend. She would attempt to catch up to Towhee to check on her, but the two would part ways before Towhee continued on down the slope of the Caldera. Downhill was still too hard on Rue's back, and even just imagining the kind of pain she would be in if she descended all the way to the base was enough to turn Rue a little green herself.

And as for the fish-- it would remain on the ground, abandoned and forgotten, a silent audience to the rest of Phox and Fennec's discussion.
