didn't do me much good last time it's not exactly like you're going to be inviting ruby over for a sleepover before trying to kill her next time either might be best if we don't know where each other are so it's harder to know where to go looking if any bouts of insanity kick in
[A couple minutes pass. Then a few more texts appear, one after another]
listen you remember deerington enough to have this conversation and i'm tired of this shit emerald's not here and none of us are going back to remnant so find someone else to babysit your mental state and leave us alone already
[Her reply didn't come for a little bit. She had to think about it a lot before she finally came out and said it. She didn't really fault him for the way he felt, but at the same time...]
Fine. I'll leave you in peace. I can take care of myself.
But Ruby and I keep in touch, so just deal with that reality. The girl's probably never going to stop trying to save me, no matter what either of us say. But I'll keep my distance.
[As much as she understood, though, he needed to know. Ruby and Oscar were hardly keeping their distance from her, so he was stuck knowing she was still around. She was like a bad penny, it seemed.]
i know ruby doesn't hate you she's half the reason i didn't fuck off and leave you to drown the other day
[Too bad, he thinks now. Could've saved him some headaches down the line. But he does try to live by Summer and Ruby's values, so it's not like he's entirely sure he'd do things differently if presented the opportunity.]
anyway she makes her own decisions she doesn't need me lurking over her shoulder every conversation we were almost allies for a while there in deerington if you're really done with revenge this time i'm fine never worrying about who you talk to or spend time with again, including her
That girl is too forgiving for her own good. But she wouldn't be who she was if she wasn't that way, I suppose.
I'm not done with vengeance. Cinder is still alive, and as long as she's alive, I'm not done with it. But as far as you and yours are concerned, the memories here won out over the pain of home. I'm really done trying to hurt your family, Qrow. I just want to build something here, for when Emerald comes, for if Roman ever shows up. I want there to be something here worth having.
Fuck Remnant.
[She didn't add "Barring bouts of insanity." He'd already mentioned it, and at this point it almost went without saying in this place.]
