Thankfully he didn't argue, because she honestly wasn't sure what she'd have done to him if he'd tried to force her to stay and work things out. She was like a train that had derailed and was now sliding wildly down an enbankment... probably on course for a pretty spectacular explosion when she hit rock bottom, but who really knew for sure. Right now she just needed to get the fuck away from anything and everything telling her how she needed to feel or what she needed to be doing. All she heard, over and over again, that just feeling what she felt and doing what she did wasn't good enough. That she, herself, wasn't enough.

She'd never felt that way around Fig before. That was maybe the worst part of all of this.

It certainly felt like she was broken. Walking away from him, she felt like a monster, but that didn't stop her from staying away for a while. And it didn't stop her from, only a short time later, disappearing on him completely. He probably had a pretty easy time seeing it coming, but unless he was willing to pin her down bodily, there was no way he'd have been able to stop her. She'd made her decision the moment she accepted defeat here. He was exactly right - at least for a while, Fennec was done trying.
Fenn is blind, and as she's older, will take all of her character insight from tone.  If you are ever uncomfortable with an assumption she makes, please let me know!
