[ Blake cocks her head, catching on to the gradual change of Break's demeanor. It's subtle, but clear enough if you're already watching closely for any clues of what's happening.

Unfortunately, everything Break is saying just makes this whole thing so much more complicated. Blake had come in here with the idea that Ruby was acting wrong, and needed to be woken up, and she stands by that -- but here Break is telling her that he needs a purpose and that finding his current reason feels like home, and how is Blake supposed to judge that? How is Blake supposed to find fault in that?

She knows a thing or two about needing a reason. She's always needed one, ever since she was old enough to hold a protest sign. But she hadn't always found the right reason. When the White Fang lost their way, so did Blake for a while.

Break and Ruby and Ange have lost their way too. ]


I'm glad that you found a reason. This place really is lovely.

[ Blake's voice is gentle; unfortunately, she knows there's no chance she's going to get Break to see the prison that this place is. They've only just met. That job would be better done by Qrow. So Blake is left playing along for the moment. ]

I should probably get going. I need to talk with Ruby about something, and from the looks of this place, I might get lost a few times before I find her. [ Blake's smile is small, but genuine. She drinks the last of her tea, and gives the teacup a little pat to say thank you. ] I'm glad we met, Mr. Break, even if the circumstances are a little unusual.
