let me go

Suddenly, green sparks flicker to life in weary eyes, and Qrow can hear beeping coming from his Scroll. Glancing down, a tidal wave of relief crashes over his entire body, shocking his system to the core. His Aura has begun to regenerate; just as that realization kicks in, a faint shimmer of turquoise-green begins to glow, concentrating around Clover's shoulder blade.

Qrow frowns. What in the world was he talking about?

Then, he understands the warmth in Clover's eyes, and suddenly, everything is different.
