Suki and Toph and Katara are nice, and sweet, and fun, but they're not her family and they've been driving for like three days now, stopping every half-hour so Toph can fix this pothole or that, or lift this tree or that out of the road. The car smells and the constant driving is giving her a headache. And Sokka's busily stressing himself out, she just knows, and she has to drive the stupid car and can't be over there for him.
And if that zombie attack was Hallowe'en, and it's totally been more than a month since then, it's like December now. That means she missed Hallowe'en, missed Thanksgiving, and also missed her birthday. She spent a good half-hour in the car trying to work out which birthday. Time kinda got messed up - less than a year in Eden but probably more than a year here, or maybe less, they kind of gave up keeping track of time ... as near as she can make it, she's probably eighteen and a half, maybe a bit more. Which was weird as hell to realise. That's so old.
And she's still smarting a little from Babs turning down her offer of help.
And that Rachel chick, the killer, was heading to the farm, last she heard.
The whole situation is really kind of wearing on Steph's nerves.
A lot.
