[Break smiles. It's a soft little thing, and tired, but it's one of the most genuine he's had in this place.]
...do you remember the night we first met? Properly, anyway. Anything if it's for the kids. We agreed on that right away.
[This conversation they're having now feels like a sequel to that, in a way. Back then, neither of them had been especially open. They'd been awkward and halting, Qrow uncertain of him and Break without his eyesight, but it had taken them all of two seconds for them to find that common ground and set up camp there. To think, if Qrow hadn't been hurt enough to ask to come home with him, everything that has followed would never have come to pass. They might have simply bid one another goodnight and moved along, and never bothered to find out just how close they could become.
How wretched, to think of not having Qrow about.]
To be able to make that sort of decision for yourself...that's a good and strong thing.
