That's what Qrow wants to say. Whatever might have happened or could have happened doesn't matter. What matters is that Ironwood was ready to wipe an entire city off the map and leave the rest of Remnant to rot just to buy some time for Atlas. He put a virus in Penny. He tried to have his nieces arrested. He got people killed.
Clover's pin feels so heavy in his pocket.
But... Yang has a point. Qrow makes himself consider it, even as he scowls and tips his head back to stare up at the unfamiliar stars. Blake and Yang are from far enough back they might be able to fix it. Hell, Ruby is from far enough back she might be able to fix it. And maybe that erases him from the timeline, or sticks the four of them in different timelines, or however this multiverse time travel bullshit works. Or maybe it doesn't work at all.
But maybe it fixes it, too. That 'maybe' is enough to settle things for him.
"Robyn Hill."
He looks back down to the rest of them, but his gaze is focused mostly on Blake and Yang. They'd been the ones to make contact with her first.
"She's a Huntress in Mantle, and a damn good one. She's about as tenacious as Ironwood, but she can actually see the big picture. Try to drag her into the fold as fast as you can. Maybe..." He grimaces and pauses. "... Maybe see if Oscar's willing to lean on James for it. Convince him that working with Robyn from the start is better than having to try to catch her up in an emergency."
