   Summary

   “Did we help lots of people?”

   The question is like a punch to the stomach. Had she? Had Ruby made the right decisions? Had she done what was best for her team? For her friends? For Atlas and Mantle?

   “Some.” Ruby whispers, fighting with her throat as she rubs weakly at her eyes. Images of innocent people dying to Grimm or being blown off Ambrosius' bridges by Cinder's fire flood Ruby’s mind. When had her enemy become other humans rather than just Grimm? Salem, Cinder, Tyrian, Watts, Adam, Ironwood… this isn’t what she thought being a huntress would be like. She didn’t think she’d have to hurt people. “We tried.” The words feel like an admittance of guilt — condemnation for her failures. Damn it… they had tried so fucking hard and everything still fell apart.

   Or: V9 trailer made me feel things so have some musings.
