Back to Raven...

I wasn't really expecting to save Yang from Adam. But I also would like to know her reasoning.

She must have some form of interest in Yang, otherwise she wouldn't have saved her from Neo back in V2. I mean, the only purpose of her intervention there was preserving Yang's life, it didn't serve any other purpose. Yang dying or living wouldn't have done anything to ghe end result of the Breach.

Also, if she didn't care about Yang in some way, she wouldn't have bothered trying to send her a warning that she wonwbe there to save her a second time. She would have just let Yang hope for it and get disappointed.

Finally, Raven's leave of Yang didn't equal her cutting all ties to her former life, otherwise she wouldn't seek out Qrow to talk. Because Qrow made it clear that Raven is the one who finds him and not the other way around.

I also theorise Raven might be a Maiden (Winter Maiden in my Black Spring AU).

My take on Qrow's statement that she is dangerous is that maybe she is not evil or bad, but maybe unstable? A very powerful person woth an unstable personality/emotional state could certainly turn out dangerous to those close to them.

Alternatively, but in line with that thought, what if Raven left Yang because she got some real bad postpartum depression?
