Some part of Qrow, distantly, realizes he's hitting dangerous territory. He realizes if he continues down this path, he will be in fact carving out a new portion of it heart for Emerald, here. But he's in too deep, and perhaps this endless twilight is a space when they can bear their grief without facing the consequences. Perhaps it is safe simply to hurt right now.]

it's not something you can run out of even when you think someone's run away with everything, you'll find there's still more to carve out the next time someone comes around hell, even when you remember the dumpster they threw it all in, you'll be tempted to give them more if you see them again and they look at you the same way they always did
[Qrow does not know who Emerald means; she does not know who he means -- and perhaps this is a kindness for them both. It is a safe place to bleed, without the burden of context, of knowledge.]
