[She's lost track of how many times this has happened - that either Deerington or Trench has forced them into a situation where they had to talk about their problems, or their trauma, or their secrets.
Willow hates exactly everything about all of this. It's hard to know what the right thing to do is.]
And I have been telling her stuff. Just not everything about everything all at once. I mean, she already hates it here, I think.
[ Well, it's not like Ange can really blame anyone for hating it here. It's not like Trench is exactly ideal. ]
.. do you think there's any way to help her? [ It's not really like they can do much about this place, but.. There's got to be something they can do, right? ]
I don't want her to just keep feeling crappy.
[ At least they can try to Maul-proof the house with spells. That's doable.
Cheering someone up? That's harder. You can't just do that with magic. ]
[Willow sighs. There was a time where she would have reached for a spell to try to fix whatever's going on with Tara, but she's long since learned her lesson on that one.]
I guess all we can do is be the supportive and help as much as we can.
[ It's a little disappointing, that answer. Ange figures that Willow would know how to deal with this for sure. After all, who here knows Tara better than she does? It'd be like Ange not knowing what to do if Ruby was that far gone.
It'd feel awful. ]
I'll make sure to help out with that then. And the spells.
[It's not an answer Willow finds particularly satisfying either, but at least for the moment, it's all she has. Especially with Tara not telling her exactly how she's feeling.]
Thanks, Ange. I'll let you know if I find out anything else too, of course.
