This Is So Cursed Bring Back The Freckles Please Who Is This

Sun is a very good boy, no Sun slander allowed here

sun wukong is literally the embodiment of “he’s a little confused but he got the spirit”. he didn’t go about it super-well when he followed blake on the boat and he did invade her privacy at points, but it’s clear that when he talks to neptune, he was genuinely just in it because he’s a good friend and he knew blake needed someone to remind her that her baggage didn’t mean she didn’t deserve loving friends. if he were pretending, he would’ve dropped the act with neptune but he actually argued with him when neptune said he was ‘letting her go’

sun isn’t perfect by a LONG shot but damn, you can not argue that kid did not seriously care about blake

new gender just dropped

I am perfectly normal about this. This will not make me go insane. I am completely normal about this moment.

everything’s sad right now so here’s a screenshot redraw of what is probably the most adorable scene in the entirety RWBY so far

Not gonna lie, Ozpin's advice did contribute to the way Ruby understands leadership's, and it is visible that his way of leading has rubbed off on Ruby quite a bit (I had a whole post on that a while ago)

BUT

The problem is people being allergic to nuance. You can be partially responsible for something, without meaning to, without being a bad person, without bashing a character.

Did Ozpin's advice lead to this situation in some ways ? Yes.

Was it meant to ? No.

Was it malicious advice ? No. In the context it was given, it was very good advice.

Was it hypocritical ? No. Ozpin acted exactly as he adviced Ruby to.

See the fun fact about giving advice, especially when you are a traumatized teacher, is that even when you mean well, even if you only wish to help, your own experience (or trauma) will "color" and impact the advice you give, and possibly make it flawed in some aspect. Does that make you an inherently bad person & teacher ?

No it makes you human, it makes for understandable & compelling character arcs, it gives us parallels. People just need to exerce some nuance really.

This is basically the same problem I have in the MHA fandom, where people who criticize All Might's teaching need to paint him as an inherently bad teacher & person. But actually, All Might has never given any consciously malicious advice to Izuku. He neve asked or expected for Izuku to do anything that he hasn't done himself and to himself. Self-sacrificial tendencies ? All Might has them in spades himself, and was never really given the room to acknowledge how bad they are. And yet he STILL hopes for Izuku to be safe (safer than him at least) and urges him to take care of himself and not act recklessly.

Being human, having trauma, offering advice based on your own experience can lead to flawed advice. That is interesting and compelling. It makes sense, and it leads to wonderful parallels and development. That doesn't make a character bad, nor does it mean that their entire advice & teaching was always terrible and that they should be burned at the stake.

To the person who made the “all of Ruby’s problems are Ozpin’s fault!” Post. Disrespectfully, and I mean this in the most rancid way possible, fuck off.

Ozpin is doing his best and is literally traumatized by the events and years leading up to where we’re at, the advice he gave to her in volume 1-2 about being a leader was genuine advice, how the fuck was he supposed to know it would’ve led to this, he didn’t do it maliciously stop acting like he did. He gave RWBY and JNPR an out from the war SEVERAL TIMES and they CHOSE not to. So don’t go saying that he manipulated them into the war or some other bullshit.

He kept all those secrets EXACTLY because of RWBY and CO’s reaction, he knew they were going to be mad which is why he didn’t want them involved in the first place.

God you people are fucking insufferable.

When you hate a character you people will find every reason you can possibly pull out of your ass to shit on them, which is wildly unhealthy tbh.

A quick meme for the road before going to sleep like a good little french medicine student (it's a lie)

Yes I put this together in 15 min just for you all, be nice to me pls I'm fluffy and scared of confrontation

watch me favour the side characters instead of the main except Blake but she's way too bi to not be put here okay

it's my meme and I get to throw shades at those who refuse Qrow's bi-disaster vibes

in honor of that fanart I saw making fun of Ozma's fashion choices and how there's no way this guy was just straight

sun is just a himbo and I love him

cinder can be very competent or straight-up feral stupid

ozpin is trying very hard but we all know our wizard is a dumbass deep down

marrow "please assume I know what I'm doing" amin

mercury is giving you a side glance bc he can't believe you thought he had any kind of standards

blake "she has 2 hands" belladonna (you are not immune to my subtle sunny bees propaganda)

nora. just. nora

Nobody talk to me I just now realised now that Belos is a Puritan, who were known for living simple lives and having very simple places of worship (for example no stained glass windows or anything like that), that has Catholic style imagery around him.

The stained glass, the tapestries, the white and gold, the theme of wings, the grand building, it’s all typically associated with Catholicism which I’ve seen a lot of people notice. He’s betrayed his simpler, Puritan origins. Maybe it’s intentional, maybe it’s not but it really says wonders about his character to me. He still holds his core Puritan beliefs, but he’s taken it to a point they aren’t recognisable anymore, buried beneath the thing Puritans like himself hated.

This also matches his whole human-witch thing. He still calls himself human, but he can hardly be compared to one anymore: he’s practically a witch. He, once again, still believes in something but it’s buried beneath the thing he hates, and in this case it’s witchcraft/witches.

I know I’m overanalysing but here me out. In this essay I’ll-

IT'S MEME TIME COWBOYS !

Time to start a fight ⚔️

For even more characters than usual, I made one chart for the kiddos and one for the adults. Enjoy ~

It's hard to find characters who avoid fighting because they know they'll lose in a show filled with characters who KNOW how to fight

For approximatively 90% of the meme conception Oz was the only pacifist adult and if that doesn't summarize the stress he's under I don't know what will

Almost everyone is ready to throw hands at any given time in this show. Even the nice and responsible ones

Penny, Sun and Pyrrha are 100/10 friends, will have you back anytime, just wanna be included

If you wonder at any point why Ilia is here, remember she won't hesitate to break your teeth

I know I only posted RWBY stuff so far and I don't have a lot of followers anyway skqjfqk but I was wondering if anyone would be interest about D&D rambles ? 😶

I play in an ongoing campaign, I have several D&D OCs that I really love to rant about, I'm just... a big DnD fan overall - (and very lucky to have an artist bestfriend as a DM, so lots of amazing art)

So yea, would that tickle anyone curiosity or just be a bore on your feed ? I'll keep posting RWBY stuff in any case dw I have a loooot of ideas
