Qrow, not knowing how to take receiving the letter, made the call that he really didn't want to actually make. His sister. Now don't get him wrong, Qrow loved his sister more than anything and would do anything for her and her family, but she was never one for the relationship between him and Willow to begin with. Deciding to bite the bullet so to speak, Qrow pulled out his phone and tapped on her name and held the phone to his ear. After the first three rings, Qrow started to have a second thought, when she answered..

"Alright, you better have a good reason for calling me at 4 in the fucking morning Qrow."

Startled, Qrow looked down at his watch and realized he was a good 3 hours ahead of his sister. "Sorry for the early wake up call sis, but uhhhh I need to talk to you about something... Well you, Tai, and maybe Summer if it's okay."

He could hear rustling over the phone as Raven finally realized it was Qrow. "Qrow when the fuck did you get back? I thought you were somewhere in Vacuo?" With that Qrow had to smirk, but at the same time, the smirk was brittle and depressive in a sort of way. After joining the Vale Marine Corps after Willow, he never did get to see his little sister or her family as much as he'd like. The only time he was able to truly spend any time with them was at the wedding between her, Tai Yang, and Summer. Now that was a story Qrow to this day still couldn't believe, but hey his friends and sister made it work.

"Yeah sorry sis, but I am not able to stay long. My unit is only here for a brief rest and then we are gonna get spun up again, but thats not why I called. Listen, I got a letter from Willow and I uh I don't excatly know what to do..."

Before he could even finish a sentence, Raven roared "Willow? That bitch has a fucking nerve to send you a letter after what she did to you. SHe left you for that cheap son of a bitch because daddy told her to.. I told you Qrow, falling in love with her was a..."

With a sigh Qrow had to cut her off only to calm her down. "Rae, calm down think of the baby. Tai and Sum would kill me if something happened to my Niece/nephew. I know you are angry and I love you for it sis, but you and I both know that she wouldn't have done what she did if she had the choice."

Raven grunted, in what Qrow hoped was aknowlegment, but he didnt get his hopes to high. "So why call me Qrow, not that I don't love talking to you and I do miss you, but why call me about this?"

"Well, I just needed someone to call... Someone who would listen and give me advice."

"Well you want my advice? Burn the letter. Don't give her the satisfaction of knowing anything..." A short rustle was heard and a squak of indignation was sounded and Qrow knew just who was making a play for the phone.

"Hey shortstack, how's the little Rose doing?"

Qrow could just hear the pout and a mumble. "Still as annoying as ever aren't you streambean."

"Hehe you know it Sum. Let me guess, you heard everything?"

"Yup. If you want mine and Tai's advice, we both say open it and see what it says. Lord knows you need the closure."

Humming softly to himself, Qrow nodded and sighed. "Yeah, that was where my head was going towards, but I just I don't know. Needed to talk to someone to get an idea? I guess."

"Qrow, you could always come to us. Oh before I forget, Ruby wants to see her favorite uncle again. Especially since we all know you're getting leave around Halloween."

"Yeah I'm sure Petal and Fire Cracker are excited for that. But hey listen, I have to go so I will talk to you guys later alright?"

"Alright Qrow. Be safe out there.. The news says the White Fang is getting worse. Just be careful and remember, we all love you."

"Yeah, love you guys too. Bye"

With that, Qrow hung up the phone and moved into his gun cage to start tearing apart his M4 and cleaning it. After that was done, he sat on his stool and opened the letter.

"Dear Qrow, Gods, it's been so long since I wrote to you about well anything. I know this is a surprise and I know you probably hate me after all these years, but there's something I need to tell you. That night before we went our seperate ways, it was the best night of my life. I never felt so loved and desired more than I was with you. I knew even before that night that my heart belonged to you and you alone. But there's something more important than you reading about my regret to you. There is no easy way to truly prepare you for this, but you have a daughter. A beautiful baby girl. Her name is Weiss and while she has my snow white hair, she has your nose and eyes. Jacque found out before we were wed and decided to take her as his own, but that recently has changed, we have been unable to have another child and thus he is taking his anger out on her. I am asking this, no begging you to please, if I send her to you.. Will you take care of her? At least until I can divorce Jacque, then you can send her back and you will never have to hear from me ever again."

Qrow never finished reading the letter as it fell from his hands and he slammed his head into the table... repeatedly. "That bam stubborn bam prideful bam woman just had to go and drop this nuke on me? Seriously? Now of all the times to do it woman? You chose now?" Qrow sighed and mulled over his options for several hrs. To the point that as he talked to himself, a couple other Raiders have gathered and was not so secretly watching him..

"So who wants to bet that something finally made Harbinger snap?"

"Come on Dalton, Qrow has issues, but he's not that crazy... I think."

Qrow couldn't hear the bet taking place, but even if he could, he wouldv'e put money on himself as well. Sighing to himself, Qrow sits back in his stoll and resigns himself to his "fate" even if a small part of him was happy that he had a daughter. With a whisper, Qrow picked up the letter and found Willow had left her contact info so he could contact her. Grabbing his phone again, he dialled her number and pressed it up to his ear. Sighing lightly.
