welp
looks like we found the new october

[Immediate kill bill sirens at the lack of sunrise tbh.]

if you're not stocked up on supplies do it sooner rather than later
before the other shoe drops and it gets too dangerous to go outside
last time the sun didn't come up it it came with everyone's running water all turning to blood and nobody could sleep while monsters were prowling around anywhere you could get food and attacking your place if you ran out of incense
just because it's quiet now doesn't mean it's gonna stay that way
be careful

[About ten minutes later, the post gets edited with an addendum:]

also i guess if you can't fight and end up needing shit, lemme know

[Look he can't just offer help publicly and not act at least a little grouchy about it. Who do you take him for, Ruby?]

[She wouldn't have been wrong even two years ago. Qrow's had that pedestal well and truly broken by now, but he and Ozpin found their way to rebuilding that trust, and Qrow isn't someone who does loyalty in half-measures. It's always been all or nothing, with him.]

Makes sense. That kind of thing takes time to sort out. But she'd still understand, I think. Dunno if she was there for October, but she was around last time we had to hole up for weeks because it got too dangerous to go out.

[And in his opinion if she did have a problem with it she should just deal? He and Oz weren't even on speaking terms that first October, and he invited his sister to their safehouse too, just for protection in numbers, making a truce even after having tried to kill each other the last they'd met.]

[She waves a hand. Of course she'll deal. The Willow and Faith of two or three years ago might not have been that mature but they're both fully grown adults now, and the thing that Willow held over Faith's head has well and truly fallen out of her grasp.

She was never even holding it, though, was she?]

She won't kick me out and feed me to the wolves over something petty. She just might be a little uncomfortable if I suddenly burst into her home and kick my feet up. [Like Buffy did. Or like Buffy was with her general existence as another girl in all the world.] So it's probably best she gets a heads up.

[Hmm...fair enough.]

I can let her know I invited you.

[If she's annoyed about it, at least it'll fall on him and not the others.]
