Redsand Canyon For me to walk away

Fennec said she didn’t know, which threw a bit of a wrench in what Towhee planned to say next. She knew her daughter was emotive and frustrated right now, so she needed to keep a cool head and try to help her navigate, even if it meant dealing with obstacles like this.

Bear with me, ‘cause this is gonna sound almost as bad as ‘it just takes time’ but… you need to find a hobby, something you can preferably do solo to distract—and hopefully enjoy—yourself. That came out kind of wrong but she hoped Fen took it in the spirit it was intended. Something that doesn’t necessarily require anybody else. What about medicine? Do you still enjoy that? Would collecting supplies and maybe setting up a stash bring you any kind of pleasure or satisfaction?

Towhee sort of expected Fennec to shoot this down too, though she would stay steady on the course until they found something constructive the young woman could do with her time, rather than wallow in misery. It wouldn’t be a magic, overnight fix, but maybe it would give her daughter something to do and a sense of purpose she seemed to be missing.
