Responsibility

"Apathy is death. Worse than death. Because at least a rotting corpse feeds the beasts and insects."
Kreia

Professor Goodwitch talks with Jaune about the way he used his powers in the previous chapter.


Tropes in this chapter include:

  • Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick: After Jaune leaves Goodwitch's office, he is almost immediately crowded by his friends who start asking questions.
    "Jaune what did you do in the arena?"
    "Are you ok? Were you injured?"
    "Did Professor Goodwitch touch you anywhere?"
  • Compelling Voice: Jaune unknowingly uses the Jedi mind trick to mind control Cardin into leaving Velvet alone.
  • Double Take: As he listens to his friends ask what happened in Goodwitch's office, Jaune does a double take when one of the questions asked is whether Professor Goodwitch "touched" him anywhere.
  • Haughty "Hmph": When Jaune unknowingly uses the Jedi mind trick to get Cardin to leave Velvet alone, Cardin lets out a haughty grunt before telling his team to leave, slating that "it's not worth it".
  • Mind-Control Eyes: While under the effects of Jaune's mind trick, Cardin's eyes glaze over before he agrees to leave Velvet alone like Jaune said.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Jaune's reaction when he realizes that he nearly choked Cardin to death in the previous chapter.
  • Self-Serving Memory: While talking about her initiation into Beacon to a group of uninterested students, Nora exaggerates several details, claiming that she and Ren took down dozens of Ursai when it was just two Beowolves. Ren claims that she does this regularly.
  • Spraying Drink from Nose: At the end of the chapter, Jaune snorts fruit juice out of his nose in response to Yang's deliberate innuendo.
  • Tears of Remorse: After Goodwitch knocks Jaune out of his Dark Side trance, he starts crying these when he realizes that he nearly killed Cardin with his new powers. Seeing these from Jaune is what causes Glynda to realize that his Force choking of Cardin was accidental and leads her to ask Jaune to come to her office so they can talk.
  • With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility: Professor Goodwitch gives this speech to Jaune, telling him that with a Semblance as strong as his, he needs to learn how to properly use it or risk harming his friends.
