[He rather appreciates the subject being dropped. Qrow doesn't talk to people about his past before Beacon often. There's only a few people who know, and only one he's told willingly. It's easier to ignore that part of him like it never existed, even though he knows he'll never fully escape it. He's a Branwen, after all.]

Yeah...Jon mentioned those when we talked. The Lonely is one of them, right? They sound like a pain to deal with. How do you end up marking yourself? In Remnant, Grimm get drawn to any kind of negative emotions, but they don't exactly focus on any specific targets when they appear. Anybody that happens to be nearby'll be in trouble.

[He shrugs, vaguely, but...ah. That question. Once again, Qrow looks uncomfortable, breaking the eye contact Gerry'd held, looking out past him at the opposite wall instead. It's very interesting, you see.]

...Right, I keep forgetting I need to explain that to people. Uh. On Remnant, every living thing with a soul has an Aura they can manifest into a form for combat, to protect and heal their body. A semblance is an aspect of that, for people who've unlocked them--a power you can tap into, from your soul.

[Please don't ask him what his semblance is, please don't ask him what his semblance is please--]
