This was the last time Qrow and his Nieces saw each other...

[Cookiechip]

you can even hear him calling "ruby? yang!" at the end. You can hear his fear and how helpless he is. His look already says that he knows something went terribly wrong and when they didn't reply he could figured it out himself. C'mon. Give this man a break...

[RedTheRoyal]

I did not realize he hadn't seen or heard from them for the *entirety* of V8, holy shit.

[joyandmorality]

Their reunion is going to have the whole fandom crying.

[PrincessLockette]

Qrow and Winter need to seriously give each other a big hug in the next volume.

[kito]

The part that hurts the most is seeing him mouth Ruby without hearing it voiced

[zb]

If the first scene in v9e1 is Qrow calling out for Ruby and Yang and thinking that they are dead... I'm going die a little deep inside.

[mariapazgonzalezlesme]

Dear god, Qrow's haunted expression. Please just erased it. It's breaking my heart.

[shadowspector]

Now I wish Qrow and Ruby had a moment on the ship. Something small like him putting his hand on her shoulder and saying “Goodluck, kid.”

[ratlesbian]

there wasn't even a goodbye. they had no reason to believe they wouldn't see each other again shortly afterwards. and now he thinks he's lost both of the girls he helped raise forever, and who knows how long it'll take before he sees them again? this just kills me. i hope bird uncle can finally start being happy for longer than a few weeks after volume 9.

[Crybaby_Ren]

Qrows face at the end of volume 8 scarred me omg.. You could see the pain and fear in his eyes.

[blackbankai]

Fans: He's already lost his family, his team, his faith in Ozpin, a close friend he could confide in, and believes himself to be cursed. How much more pain are you going to bestow upon this poor man?
Roosterteeth: *YES.*

[hiscusbiscus]

Remember what he was like when he lost Clover? He just kinda shut down? I'm very afraid for him. If that was his reaction ro someone he felt close to after a few weeks, imagine this. Volume 9 is gonna have me in tears I just know it

[mizel.i]

I hope Tai goes to Vacuo and we get full family reunion.

[keithjohnson]

I just realized he has NO idea Ruby is alive

[WarmLillie]

Every time someone say goodbye it feel like it’s the end of the world.

[anthonyworstell]

I mean, if you were an uncle and lost contact with your niece in the middle of all the chaos in Atlas, I would be flipping the frick out worrying!

[three]

he's gonna blame himself because of his semblance!

[meme_guy]

Me: I've gotten over Volume 8 so this can't be too bad
*sees this in notifications*
Welp, guess I'm going back to therapy

[fallensilence]

Man, all the stuff that happened in the early volume feels like ages ago. Like they haven't seen each other in weeks when it's really just been a couple days. It really makes everything they've been through this volume seem so much... More.

[carnyferobin]

I desperately need Qrow to be ok I’m so worried he’ll relapse thinking they’re dead 😭
