[ There isn't a whole lot to say to really change what Abigail's missed, so her telling silence is allowed to drag for a bit. Showing her pictures might only worsen the feeling. It's one Mary might relate to on some level, but it would be distant. Like an old acquaintance that one has forgotten still hangs about. It has been a very long time since Mary has had her hand involved in anything purely beautiful. What good is mourning?

But it's a necessary process, and so long as it doesn't linger, Mary is one to nurture that human sadness in order to prevent too much desensitization. She can recommend denial some days, and acceptance on others. Smiles are only useful until they hurt. ]


It's an isolating feeling, isn't it? Thinking you never have control?
