The muffin was mostly to keep her hands busy while she worried about the state of affairs in the town. Some of the muffin made it into her mouth while most of it just became crumbs that fell on top of her table. She'd clean it up later. "You could skip the stupid question," Allegra answered, not necessarily believing in the concept of a stupid question. "Just launch straight into...'clearly, you are not okay but...this," Allegra gestured for a continuation with her hand, flinging a small spray of crumbs across the floor. Moll took care of the clean-up there. Apparently, even familiars were not above diving for bread crumbs (so to speak). "Or you don't have to say anything at all. Just the fact that you're there means quite a lot, I would imagine." When she'd been separated from Kendra, they'd spent a lot of time on the phone and a decent amount of that had been not talking, just doing chores with the handset cradled against her shoulder.
"It was such a lovely place to live, too," Allegra tried not to sigh or put the emphasis on 'was'. After all, there was still the possibility that things would right themselves. She hoped the balancing was a 'righting' and not a punishment of sorts. Allegra couldn't foresee how things would go. Not exactly her particular talent.
Allegra took a sip of tea while Moll focused on eating bread crumbs instead of obsessing over her imaginary demise at the hands (paws?) of Haze. Worry, of course, was Allegra's first instinct when Willow confirmed that she was, in fact, going to open the shop. "You can do some good. You do what you think is right," Allegra tried to sound encouraging instead of anxious. It was a recurring theme in the Bohinen household. Believe in something and push for it, whether or not it aligned with the beliefs of the rest of the house. Unless it was putting babies on spikes. There had to be a line somewhere. And she was proud of Willow for making a brave choice. "Sane?" Allegra smiled wanly. "More because I don't have any answers. And I worry that any magic I try to do will backfire or make matters worse." Hiding was the term Allegra would use, but saying it out loud hurt her pride too much. "I'll make a stew in the crock pot or something. That'd be more useful."
