Sun Mote Copse Night on earth.

Niamh was taken aback, but fortunately, kept her trap shut and didn't try to defend herself. This wasn't her story, and she needed to back down and away from the pedestal that she'd placed herself on, and get rid of the self pity...And just the pity in general, as Towhee confessed that she wasn't capapble of handling the tough stuff. Niamh wanted to pout- given the fact she'd basically confessed that she'd rather be related to Towhee than Phox, no matter how much she actually did care about Phox already- but she didn't want to hear that. So she had to put those hurt feelings on the backburner, even though she didn't like the fact that she wasn't allowed to feel hurt too. She'd just have to bury it for now, because Towhee couldn't handle her feelings too. She swallowed hard. 

-Well- She said, and shrugged, somewhat stiffly. It was the only thing she could think of. -Apparently Bronco tried to explain sex to Nellie.-
