Summary
” In the time he wasn't spending with Eddie watching over him those first couple of weeks, Buck tried desperately to pick up the scraps of whatever was left of the person he once was. He leaned on past practices and rituals—the tried and true methods for coping and healing—the kitchen. Baking had started out for him as something of a strategy to get his mind off of the things that were bothering him, sprouting in excess after an especially upsetting breakup left him feeling in what he thought was a similar boat. That feeling of not knowing who you are anymore. While it had started out that way, it had transformed itself into something he genuinely enjoyed. Something that made him feel happy.
Whatever baking did for him before New Mexico, it didn't have that effect anymore.”
Or: Buck was lost in New Mexico, but he was lost before then too, and he’s still lost now.
