I've told you before. I don't know why you're still arguing with me. It doesn't matter whether they understand why. It only matters that they stay safe.

You and everyone else make it sound like it's so simple, but it's not. Yeah, he's gone. For now. That could change any time. He'll look for me. Only this time, there won't be anyone else around for him to hurt. I won't let anyone be caught in the crossfire again.

Just a halfboiled detective passing through SPOILERS

[As the mun does not actually have a Rwby muse, he's decided to send in his little avatar of logic down to strip away her shoddy plans]

Actually, running like you did was a major misstep. He told you he was going to take away everything you ever cared about, didn't he?

Running away just means you won't be there when he does it. You've essentially given him complete access to your loved ones, and you can't stop him because you've run.

He'll look for you, but only after he's destroyed everything you loved, to utterly break your spirit. You've played right into his hands.

[She turns at the sound of the voice, the words sounding very similar to what someone else has told her already. She shakes her head. But maybe she's trying to convince herself.]

He already destroyed the place I'd made into my home. And...[It literally hurts to think about Yang with the guilt still eating her up.]...and it was only because Yang tried to save me that she got hurt. He doesn't know who the rest of my team is or he'd have already gone after them. If I stay around, he'll definitely know who else is close to me.

[But now this kid had got her thinking of something. Does Adam actually not know? She's never fought him with her friends, but they have fought White Fang members working under Torchwick. Would someone have told him?]

strange, I didn't see a notif for the reply edit.

Don't underestimate the anger of scorned loved one, miss Belladonna: He knows you were part of a team, he knows who one of your teammates was, and he was resourceful enough to help bring down Beacon. He'll be investigating your team, if not to find out who the other two are, then to ensure that Yang Xiao Long breathes her last.

I don't like being made a vehicle for bad news, miss Belladonna, but Adam appeared to me as someone very tenacious, and that vow to destroy everything you cared about wasn't one to take lightly.

Besides, separating yourself from the rest of the team only serves to weaken your position when he catches up to you. [When. Not if]

(1) It happens

I...[She looks up like she's realized something horrible.]

No! If that's the case I'll find him first. [She looks determined. If it's really her he wants, it's not that a very big part of her isn't terrified by Adam, but her anger at the thought of him dragging more innocent people into it just because they dared to be her friends is greater.]
