Oscar, Seeing Emerald: Sweet, A New Big Sister!!

Them's the Breaks, Kid Appreciation Post

Me watching "Them's the Breaks, Kid" with my sister

*Eda & Lilith studying on screen* : LOOK LOOK THEY'RE SO CUTE

*Bump defending the students & being all shy/awkward* : LOOK AT HIM HE'S SO SWEET

*Alador, Odalia & Darius trio laughing together* : THEY'RE SO CUTE

*Eda & Raine meeting and getting into shenanigans together* : THEY ARE ADORABLE I LOVE THEM

Basically : HOW DOES TOH CREW MAKE EVERYONE SO ADORABLE & ENJOYABLE I CAN'T. This episode was genuinely so sweet, it was like eating a bunch of marshmallow. I love them so much. I spent the whole ep squealing & sobbing because they are so cute

And the fact that we get this whole episode for the sole reason that Luz is feeling down and so Eda shares with her some good memories because she knows Luz love this kind of stories... ;;

I was saying that I wanted Luz to have a break after Reaching Out, some sweet time to recover with cute Raeda memories and that's EXACLTY WHAT HAPPENED don't touch me I'm feeling so soft

And OMFG Darius is in league with Raine ?? THIS IS SO FREAKING AMAZING. Actually I think someone had made theories about that, even based on Eda's Requiem. Need to find that post & reblog to applaud their brains.

I love everyone. SO. MUCH.

Except Terra, fuck Terra. She looks cool but fuck her.

James shook his head. Stubborn idiot. “It doesn’t matter, Qrow,” he croaked, gaze still so heavy, so far away. “It doesn’t matter what happens to me.” Qrow hated how sincere it sounded, how completely he knew James believed it; had always believed it. Even now, there wasn’t so much as a crack in that conviction. Qrow swallowed the bitterness that rose in his throat and risked leaning over a little more, trying to catch James’ eye. “It matters to me.” Soft. Slow. Deliberate. It worked. For the first time since he’d set his weapon down, James looked at him. Qrow tried not to take the surprise personally; he hadn’t exactly made much of an effort to prove it, recently. He continued before he lost the opening. “You’re not some necessary sacrifice in all this, James. You never have been.”

Just finished a fuck of a fourth year of University, so I decided to give myself a late night to draw something completely unrelated to my studies or current projects. The fic is called “waiting for the dawn” and is stuck in the purgatory of my AO3 drafts.

Pspspspsps Vanitas no Carte fans, go submit our dear Luna at @worst-fictional-cook-showdown because I think they deserve a spot

So LGBTQ+ is now completely illegal in Russia. I wonder if anyone going to talk about that. I'm so tired

Successors

I like how Ice Queendom is doing a good job of humanizing Whitley a lot more early on. He may act like a brat due to his upbringing, but despite that he does look up to his sisters. He’s just not very good at showing it, so he falls back on learned behaviors.

He even looks proud of Weiss when she defeats the Arma Gigas! It’s little details like this that go a long way.

And another meme for the road !

I made myself sad with this meme bc I realized that the last box is basically just characters who learnt that disagreeing lead nowhere good and they can't win :) (headcannonish in Tai's case but I just can't see Raven concede a point to anyone in a debate) *holds gently the three* You deserve better.

For clarification :

- Cinder only avoids people who disagree with her in the sense that she kills them. - Maria ain't got time to argue with people and she doesn't care.

- JRP + O are civilized and then there's Nora - RWBY all have different ways of dealing with disagreements so I guess they're balanced in that sense at least

I established the difference between "Their opinion is as valid as mine" & "I will talk to them" in that characters in the latter are firmly convinced to be right and aim to change others' mind. Whereas characters of the former category have their opinions but don't necessarily think they're more right.

I always thought Tyrian was The Scorpion who could control his nature.

Do you think Tyrian might try and make Mercury see things his way?

Hello anons!

These asks can be answered together!

To the first anon, ooooh, interesting take! Do you mind to elaborate?

Anyway, as for me, I do not think he can actually control his nature. Tbh... I would not be surprised if in the end his nature were to lead him to his death.

As for now, I would rather say that he is the Scorpion who has embraced his nature:

Tyrian: Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh. I want to tell you both a little secret. Your question is all wrong. "What do you want from this?" Children, please, if you're not loving what you're doing, then you're in the wrong field.

Tyrian: Do what makes you happy children... please? I'm begging you...

He does what makes him happy aka killing and hurting others. He has accepted who he is, so he does not really try to change or to become someone else.

I think this reading also fits with him foiling both Qrow and Mercury aka two characters who have trouble accepting who they are.

On one hand Qrow sees himself only as a bad omen. He thinks it is his own nature and misses how much he means for his loved ones.

On the other hand Mercury claims he is embracing his own nature:

Mercury: All my life, my father trained me to be a killer, an assassin like him. And then moments after I killed him, you two showed up looking for someone with my exact skills. Just felt like it was meant to be.

But he is actually negating his personhood:

Tyrian: All you ever learned was pain and violence, and now you're too afraid to leave it. Such a tragedy.

Which leads us to the second anon’s question.

Honestly it is too soon to say.

As for now, there has actually been an interesting dynamic between Tyrian and Mercury. To be more specific, Tyrian has actually said out loud things Mercury has been negating/repressing.

Mercury wants to see himself as a big bad man, but Tyrian strips him of this coping mechanism and states Mercury is just a victim and a scared child.

Mercury does not want to deal with the Salem destroying the world, but Tyrian appears and makes this truth impossible to escape.

At the same time, Tyrian’s body language in both occasions has been controlling and threathening. He tells Mercury the truth, but also traps him in fear more and more.

In short, their interactions are good because Tyrian’s body language negates the effect his words could have.

All in all, it seems to me as a jungian dynamic...Tyrian is acting as Mercury’s shadow in multiple ways. He is giving voice to truths Mercury deep down knows, but does not accept. At the same time, he is taking control of Mercury (he literally drags him away in War).

Until Mercury is trapped in his fear he will be Tyrian’s prisoner as well.

So, I do not know if Tyrian will consciously try to influence/groom Mercury. He seems more than anything having fun tormenting him tbh. However, it is possible Mercury will try to act more like him as a coping mechanism. After all, it is the same thing he has done with Marcus. Mercury deep down despises his father, but he is still doing what his father would have wanted him to do. At the same time, the juxtaposition with Tyrian might lead Mercury to finally accept he can’t be like him or his father, no matter how much he tries.

Anyway, it is too soon to say, there are many possibilities.

Thank you for the ask!
