    Summary

    Blake Belladonna’s long-conditioned trauma response is to run. But what if, in one particular pivotal instance, it wasn’t? What if, on that terrible night that changed Team RWBY's world forever, her instincts pushed her to choose a long, desperate fight, instead of taking flight?

    On a chilly evening in the early spring following the Fall of Beacon, the Rose-Xiao Long household receives an unexpected visitor - a freezing feline faunus soaked to the bone, battered and bruised from a climactic battle, and beyond all else, dead-set on returning straight to her partner's side.

    "H-he can't hurt us anymore."

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Holy BOLLOCKSING crap this is wicked awesome. I'm still in the middle of Chapter 8 as I make this Bookmark but I'd say that's plenty of time for me to actually read this story enough to know that this author has some crazy talent. They keep making self-deprecating comments in the notes and every time I read them I'm just "NO! THIS IS AWESOME!" Hey, author, you gotta know that sometimes edgy is a good thing, and good lord, is this edgy!

    There's so much detail, so much emotion, so much VOCABULARY (there were words even I didn't know! And I'm an English prodigy!) in this story and it makes me all warm like Burn has taken me over. This is just amazing, and despite them being apart in canon during this time frame being more necessary to their character arcs, the characterization is much more faithful to what they went through together in the three volumes prior to Volume 4.
