Side Note: but am I the only one that was incredibly bothered by Yang not even trying to get Qrow to safety?

Like, Qrow was clearly in no condition to leave by himself and she just ran right past him.

Like, up until now I have refused to jump into the Yang hate train a lot of people seem to have gotten on because I could understand where a lot of her bad attitude and reactions were coming from.

But I really can't get behind why she just dumped her uncle (and Ruby to an extent) like that.

P.D.: I would like to clarify I am not jumping onto any Yang Hate Train because Hate Trains are dumb. Personally, the way I saw Yang "abandoning" Qrow, if you watch carefully you see Blake looking back as if she wanted to try and do more, and she had to pull her to get her out of there. Blake was one of those that succumbed to the Apathy's effects the most intensely down in the tunnels and cellar (likely by proximity and guilt for not being there for Yang), and Qrow acted similar to Blake when he had to be dragged away since he wanted to keep drowning his sorrows, even after he saw the Grimm and snapped out of it.

You could also say they needed to warn Oscar too, who would've been left to his own devices for that whole debacle and might still be affected until warned. She might've trusted Ruby to be strong enough to get Qrow out herself, especially given the group's now starting to become aware of Ruby's SEW power, and Weiss has Dust to seal the entrance or kill the Grimm.

I mean, that doesn't necessarily mean that Yang shouldn't have tried to help him, but they had a lot of other things to worry about. Namely getting out of the proximity of their powers.
