Reading more of Cards Against Remnant.

Wow, Blake really can't take a joke about faunus. So I guess it answers how she'd react to seeing Faunus jokes on here.

If I was playing with them, I would totally save "A Super Soaker Full Of Cat Pee" for Blake, [lol][lol].

AAAAUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!

I think after a while she just stops caring [lol]

And I think she'd go nuclear.

Also: You'd probably get smacked by Blake and Weiss for it being disgusting. Yang and Nora would be laughing, Ruby wouldn't know what to think. Pyrrha and Jaune would be in a gagging/giggling fit. Ren would just sit there

[up]Aaaw, that's no fun [lol]

Oh, my friend would play all the horrible cards to everyone if he was playing.

Though I'd think that card would work perfectly for Blake even if I don't win.

for me, the best of the fic was Blake "my whole life is cycle of inner demons and killing inocent fanunus children", I mean deer fucking god, that was dark as hell!evil grin

Also I imagine something like this

Neo star waving her hands at Roman

Adam: what the hell she is saying.

Roman: well...is something about your mother?

Adam: What? said now!

Roman: well....Neo said your mother is just......a human

And THEM he draw his sword

Adam: OH THAT IT, YOU TAKE THAT BACK

Cinder: Adam, sit down

Adam: BUT SHE IS A-

Cinder: Adam *deep voice* SIT,FUCKING,DOWN

Mercury: oooooh Adam, can you tell me the faunus world for being a btich?

Adam: taste me again, Im I swear I will cut you something they cant replace.

And that it

@BlackSunNocturne: It wasn't specifically attractiveness that lead to Pyrrha being isolated, it was her status as The Ace; hence I'd say her looks are average because Generic Cuteness is in effect.

[up][up]Ain't that the reason why we love CAH? It has nothing known as "limits" for fucked up shit.

[up]Ooooh, okay. My bad then. Though I could have sworn there were mentions of her being pretty also made people avoid her or something like that.

Also, latest round.

Czar is Winter. Black card is "During sex I like to think about ____". Cards played are:

  • Qrow: The Female Orgasm.
  • Glynda: Men.
  • Ironwood: The Blood of Oum.note 
  • Oobleck: Not giving a shit about Vacuo.
  • Ozpin: The Faunus.
  • Port: Mistralian Dungeon Porn.
  • Taiyangnote : Lactation.

I think Ozpin is taking a potshot at the Schnee family's treatment of Faunus there, and the broskis implied Winter's batting for the other team. God, this is fucking hilarious [lol]

While the models remain the same, I feel Phyrra have a more "atlethic" figure which is usually found in people like her, so that should count....I think

[up]Yep, the villians just write themselves.

Cinder: Ok, Im the Card Czar now, the black card said "____, Now that is how you star a moring", Adam?

Adam: slaughting inocent human children, that is how star a moring...sound about right

Mercury: of course it does.

Adam: excuse me?

Mercury: if there anything about you that dosent involve murdering people?

Adam: hey, I least I have a reason, you cant do ANYTHING without being a douchebag.

Mercury: Of course I can....ehhh...let se...what about that night with that group

Emerald: nope, you let them into a trap with grimms

Mercury: oh right....¿what about that charity foundation....

Emerald: you rob them and mock them about for 3 weeks

Mercury: Oh right, that was funny....what about That cute girl I meet?, that wasn bad

Emerald: you accidently shoot her in the head with your leg while trying to take your pants....and them you call me at 12am in order to hide the body.

Roman: wow, what? that is a little extreme, how you do it?

Emerald: well....we cut her out and flush her in Cinder bathroom

Cinder: YOU DID WHAT? it wasnt able to you that bathroom for weeks! ughhhh I wonder sometimes if Ozpin have worst than Im...just give me your damn cards

Roman: best, game,ever...

Anyway, Of the main characters, Pyrrha has the most death flags by far (Love Interest, The Ace, and The Mentor), and, until episode 9, had a replacement lined up (Penny), which could still come to fruition if she ends up rebuilt or repaired. Fuethermore this episode had the absolutely perfect opening for Pyrrha to be killed as a Sacrificial Lion. I doubt she'll die in the season finale, but she's still the sort of character who tends to die in fiction.

The only other major character I could see dying early would be Yang, which would presumably go down somewhat like Kamina, and even then, it would require a replacement with a name starting with Y, given her title billing.

[up]The Title Billing is what makes me think all of team RWBY is safe from death.

[up][up]I feel that Emerald would be the Only Sane Man of that group (because she honestly kind of is). Also silly Adam, you're not supposed to say what card you're playing [lol]

CaptainCapsase from Orbiting Sagittarius A* Since: Jan, 2015
#25786: Feb 9th 2016 at 9:37:58 PM

[up] It's not full title billing; just the first initial. Hence why people speculated Penny might replace Pyrrha in JNPR before PVP.

Isn't there a fanfiction thread for this kind of discussion?

#25788: Feb 9th 2016 at 9:38:35 PM

[up][up][up]But it was peny the one who got kiiled, her arc to run way and being with Ruby is pretty much set as re-irony, while Phyrra so far have manage to avoid death AND being Maiden, [up]I kept thinking that Maiden-Cinder atack her and Jaune step away, taking the blast with his semblance, also if she survived, is would be pretty clear the ship becomes cannon.

And I have a mini wmg with Yang wild mass guessAdam could kill her in any moment with that move of his but instead decide to main her in order to make her and Blake sufferwild mass guess

Because Cinder message? I mean she exposed the fact that a) there is actually a living android from Atlas in the tournament b) Its capable of using Aura and c) a rouge element manage to exposed her in front of everyone. So It make no sense to bring Penny back, it cause mayor problem all along the way, and "she is cute and stuff" is not a good argument, in a narrative sense Penny death put the shift into more darker show in motion.

None of that actually offers any counterpoint to rebuilding Penny. Her father from every conversation is really caring and protective of her, so the idea that he wouldn't repair her (which all things considered would be a ludicrously trivial thing to do) after they went through the effort of showing him reacting to her dismemberment all because somebody else would complain is just silly.

I mean, "it'll cause major problems along the way", who honestly cares? The whole world thinks Yang and Phyrra are psychotic sadists, that Ironwood is a would-be conqueror, Ozpin is teaching his students to be ruthless in their fights, and that Atlas is trying to take over the world. The argument that they wouldn't repair Penny (again, dismemberment is the least effective way to permanently deal with a robot) because of people who already think the worst of them holds no water.

I don't think the populace believes Pyrrha is a psycho because they're too busy freaking out that Penny was a robot.

#25791: Feb 9th 2016 at 9:48:56 PM

Once they sit down and think about it (and following unknowing's argument that they buy Cinder's speech) they'll come to the conclusion that Phyrra deliberately tried to murder someone who she thought was a regular human girl.

unknowing from somewhere.. Since: Mar, 2014
#25792: Feb 9th 2016 at 9:53:36 PM

[up][up][up]By that moment Penny existence is a secret kept from everyone, a secret that was torn to shred by Phyrra semblence and reveal to everyone thanks to Cinder hijack broadcast, and consider the pains Ironwood went to kept her nature a secret(Having Guards follow her, companion in the torunament monitorized her fights) she is not and astro boy or a megaman but secret project that got leaked in the worst way posible.

Who cares? well....EVERYONE should care(at least in universe) Cinder broeadcast is clear to caust distrust between the kindoms and the people and part of that is the idea of a android who can use aura and be around regular people and faunus without nobody noticed? there isn any good reason to bring penny back aside from "I just can"

And yet again you miss the argument; why should her father giving a flying fuck what anybody else thinks? What is stopping him from just saying "fuck what Atlas thinks, I'm bringing my daughter back to life?"

wild mass guessGepetto seeks revenge against Pyrrha until it gets revealed she's innocent (kind of) and then proceeds to go after Emerald and Cinder.

[up],[up][up]"Fuck what Atlas says, fuck what the media and public thinks, FUCK! ALL! OF! IT!. I just want my daughter back....."

[down]Him giving her new body rocket launchers, flamethrowers, and the ability to grow seven times her size stops Atlas from taking her?

I'm thinking that Penny literally is Dr. "Light" Polendina's daughter. As in, emergency Aura transfer into an artificial body, but the process erased her memories.

[up][up]After listening to that song, I feel those things do need to be added to Penny is some way. As well as being made of non-metallic materials and have remote control weapons that DON'T have a potential for accidentally scrapping yourself.

[up]Oh right... Penny is in four pieces, and there are four kingdoms...

#25798: Feb 9th 2016 at 10:33:45 PM

well, what stop Atlas goverment to just pull the gun of him and said "Stop....OR ELSE!"?

Either he does it in secret (because what kind of scientist of that calibre doesn't own an underground secret lab?), does it openly and uses his army of prototype robots to hold Atlas at bay long enough, or Atlas decides "In for a Penny, in for a Pound" and decides that since everybody is paranoid about them having perfect android duplicates everywhere anyway, they might as well go all in and get the benefits of it.

and more important, what would be the point?

You seriously can't see the point? I'll break it down for you;

  • Penny's father loves his daughter. Seriously, how can you not get the idea that a father would be willing to say "fuck the world" to save his daughter?
  • She was under Ironwood's command and he's not the sort of person to just abandon someone because it's politically convenient. He'd most certainly have Penny rebuilt because she was "killed" working for him and he won't just leave her to rust.
  • There seems to have always been a plan to eventually reveal her to the world (way back in Volume 1 her handler said "Your day will come soon"), so they could just stick with that plan.
  • She's an awesome fighter at a time that they need everyone they can get their hands on. She utterly dominated every fight up until Phyrra's and was in control of that one, and it took Phyrra using her semblance to what is currently it's maximum degree to stop her. Her first real world fight had her single-handedly stop a White Fang attack force with little effort and no injuries on her part. With Cinder getting a massive power buff and the White Fang openly waging war now this is exactly the time you need Penny fighting for you.
  • Ruby wants her best friend back, and Ironwood and by extension all of Atlas owe her a favour for taking down the control ship and shutting down all of the hijacked drones.

so far everyone knows Penny is android undercover from the goverment, her life would be a hell....

So far as everybody knows Yang and Phrrya are dangerous psychos, Ozpin is terrible at his job, Ironwood is a conqueror, and we can potentially have doctored footage smearing everybody else's reputation too to make them all look like villains. She'd be in the exact same boat as team RWBY, unless you're suggesting that they should all just lay down and let Cinder walk all over them because it's too hard not to.

and that is Atlas or other kindom decide to have her, piece,by,piece.

The White Fang wants to kill everybody Blake loves or cares about, so what's your point? Penny has her friends backing her up.

Seriously, your points on why they wouldn't bring her back are incredibly weak.

BlackSunNocturne Since: Aug, 2013
#25799: Feb 9th 2016 at 10:38:54 PM

[up][up].... That's.... Actually a brilliant theory.

Actually, if you're saying "non-metallic" to prevent another incident like what happened with Pyrrha, there's no need: Iirc, a Galvanization process makes metals non-magnetic.

[up]Everything you say is the truth.
