“Summer Rose used her enemies’ egos against them. They saw this little waif and underestimated her, but she was relentless, every time.

She could be deceived, though. She stopped to help a beggar in Vale, and he wound up robbing her blind. Raven had to come in and bail her out.

She was always the first to help, though. First to volunteer on a search and rescue. First to divvy up and share rations, when we got stranded on a mission. She and I got into a terrible fight about that. I thought Taiyang was going to break my nose.

She wasn’t perfect. Sometimes she faltered. She didn’t know who she was unless she was helping other people, and let me tell you… it is terrible not to know who you are unless you’re defined by other people. But she was kind, and she was strong, and she was brave, and she— she loved you both. More than I think you can even imagine.”

Qrow describing Summer to Ruby and Yang.
