“How could you…?” Traitor… She’d been on their side, fallen in love with him. How could she betray them like this?
“It’s simple really. A little too much pain, a little too much sorrow… It’s enough to turn anybodytoward their freedom even if they have to step on a few toes in the process.”
“But…what about us …? Was that…?” His voice cracks, tears rolling down his cheeks. All of that couldn’t have been fake…right?
She walks over, finger on his jaw tilting his head up . “At first, it wasn’t. But it did grow into more. I do love you…but my freedom is far more important.

“Goodbye, my darling. I’ll never forget you.”
“Me too.”
“Cut! ” They both look up, blinking. “Great run you two. You were fantastic.”
Qrow sighs and drops his head. “Mind getting these damn ropes off me?”
“Mm, maybe we should keep you there until later?” Winter just smirks, making Qrow flush.
“Oh come on , you two; wait until you’re off set.” The director rolls his eyes.
