[Unbeknownst to either of them -- it's subconscious, on Break's part -- Qrow moves up even a little more in Break's esteem for not getting on his case about the Mad Hatter. He'd been prepared to brush if off if he did comment; it's not like Break has the Hatter here and it'd be useless if he did, so the point is moot. Still, that he isn't getting even so much as a concerned noise for the fact that things went that way at all is a relief, and a confirmation that Qrow is someone he can trust with his shiftier problems if anything to that effect strikes him here.
Which, to be frank, they might.
For the moment, though he'd offered to make lunch, Break pauses to lean against the counter with one hand still clutching his blanket and the other dragging slowly down his face. It's a line of thought he's been doing his best to stay away from, but with Qrow bringing it straight to the table like this after being given the overall situation to sort through, well.]
Miss Lysithea did wonder, once, if...the forms we take here are really just a matter of expectation, particularly for darkbloods. And I am getting the impression that Miss Alice -- the pale one -- is still floating about and carrying on simply because it hasn't crossed her mind that she shouldn't be able to anymore. If that's the case, I suppose I could be ill simply because I'm supposed to be. But that's...
[Just past his hand, Break's mouth twists into a ragged, bitter half grin.]
Ugh. If so, I don't know how to change it, then. Darkblood powers are the last thing I want to mess with. My capacity for making enormous messes is simply too great.
