--> "Roman was right. I am just a prize to be thrown away." Anguished eyes looked to Canada and all he could see was [[MismatchedEyes America's blue]]. "Did you betray me too?"

* When Austria is grabbed by a Hologram!Grimm in the battle simulation, only a couple nations bother trying to help him and a few question why [[NonActionGuy he]] is part of the Taskforce. No wonder Germany chews them out for it.

* Italy's panic after Weiss and Japan are attacked by SE!Ruby. He desperately shoots at her to distract her from Japan (who she was torturing) before he realizes he can't hope to beat her and lowers his gun. He thinks about how useless he has been on the mission, and is glad he can at least try to protect his friends. Ruby's silver light wraps around him, and he shut his eyes and hopes that he can at least serve as a distraction so someone else can save Japan and Weiss. [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome Then his Semblance activates.]]

* [[TheWoobie America's]] life in general. He has been tortured, manipulated, abducted, coerced, betrayed, and taken advantage of more times than can be counted, slipping closer and closer to the DespairEventHorizon. It's honestly a surprise he has not crossed it yet.

DespairEventHorizon.



* America recognizes Ironwood as one of the men who held him and Canada captive. He realizes the teachers he trusted are apparently siding with Ironwood and panics. He desperately tries to escape but is quickly cornered and collapses.

** It's obvious America has taken Roman's words that he is nothing more than a prize to be fought over, manipulated, and thrown away to heart. After everything he has gone through, [[{{Determinator}} Amer]][[BoisterousBruiser ica's]] sense of self-worth is now completely in the dumps.

* A small one, but Ruby does not defend Qrow and Ozpin after finding out the secrets they kept. [[AllLovingHero Ru]][[EasilyForgiven by]] is upset enough that she does not berate Yang for punching their uncle.

* The soldiers constantly drug France to keep him out of it and Australia and Romano are completely helpless to stop them. When France isn’t unconscious, he sits on his cot and silently stares at his hands.

"No." Yang stated. "You ''didn’t''. You just ''happened'' to run into us at Haven. If we weren't there, you never would have come back to us."\\

* America finally crosses the DespairEventHorizon. He talks with France about their recent [[ColdBloodedTorture experiences]] on Remnant, becoming quieter and quieter as the conversation goes on. Eventually he admits that he’s been [[WoundThatWillNotHeal scarred]] by a guard and that he believes he deserved to be captured because he (in his own words) "[[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything practically asked for it]]" by acting recklessly. He then confesses he doesn't really care that he might [[YourDaysAreNumbered die]] and completely shuts down emotionally. He robotically says he's happy France is feeling better and goes to bed, having given up just like Canada did.

* America is still angry and grieving over Vale's sacrifice. Canada bluntly tells America there was no way for Vale to survive since her capital was doomed. America flinches, says he knows that, and admits he thought both he and Vale were doomed. He was prepared to die with Vale and is shocked and confused that he's alive. He did not think he would survive the war but here he is, still living. He asks why he's alive when she is not and bursts into tears.
