Is it weird that I'm more worried about Blake and Yang than anyone else?

AAAAUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!

[up]It's not weird, I myself am more worried Neo is going to do a Death from Above with her umbrella.

Probably. Seems unlikely they'd pile on more misfortune for them - there's setting the stakes and there's making it look you really hate a character, and I'd think causing anything worse specifically to Yang or Blake at this point would look like the latter.

Me, I'm still real suspicious for Arkos. Doesn't feel likely the writers would set up all that for those two and just go "Actually they're fine".

Of course it's weird. They already got stabbed and cut while others are relatively unscached. It would be more natural to worry about those who haven't got their share of pain.

I think it's just prioritization. Since those two are my favorite RWBY characters and shit can cause me to worry most about them than anyone else. I remember that I was far more worried about Yang when "Fall" came out than I was for Pyrrha.

I wonder how Rubes and Weiss would react to this. Probably worry for them.

Even Ironwood was starting to distrust his leadership after his response to the impending crisis was "we wait".

Ozpin didn't tell Ironwood to wait. He told Ironwood that, when faced with an unknown situation, they should proceed scout first, not army first.

That wasn't aggressive enough for Ironwood, who then complained to Glynda about Ozpin being too passive and that he thinks Ozpin is hiding something.

While I think Ironwood is right about Ozpin keeping secrets, I think Ironwood might be right for all the wrong reasons.

I don't believe Ozpin was talking about Team RWBY when he mentioned scouts to Ironwood. I think he was talking about Raven, and Team RWBY was effectively the "decoy". Raven's told Yang not to rely on her because Neo saw her rescue Yang, and could have reported to Cinder that Raven can be manipulated by targeting Yang - which puts both Raven's mission and Yang's life in danger.

Ozpin isn't just the Wizard of Oz, he's Odin. Odin keeps abreast of everything that is happening in the world by sending out his two scouts, the ravens Huginn and Muninn (Thought and Memory). That's Qrow and Raven.

Ozpin is the Wizard of Oz, Odin, Dumbledore and probably Gandalf.

Fuck, no wonder why Word of God is that his semblance is OP as balls (plus the World of Remnant implied it as well). [lol]

[up][up] Holy shit, that could actually be right. It'd be brilliant! And a justification for a pair of siblings being named "Qrow" and "Raven", for Christ's sake.

He'd have to lose it for wisdom.

So its loss would probably have to involve a very significant lesson.

[up]"Don't always keep those close to you in the dark about things" perhaps?

Also: I'm now imagining Ozpin with an Eyepatch of Power and the image is fucking awesome

Oh, God. A monocle. My Britishness swoons with the very thought.

Regarding the Nightmare Fuel page. I just looked at the page with Spoilers hidden (I'm usually set to show spoilers), and Volume 3 entries are so ridiculously white that there's no point in them even being on the page.

What do people think of the idea of making the Nightmare Fuel page spoiler free (with a massive warning at the top of the page, naturally). At the moment, it seems to be following the same rule as for the Character pages (spoilers only on Volume 3) but they've been used so heavily from "Beginning of the End" onwards, there's more white than visible text.

As usual, I love Matt.

He can really do a running gag.

Seriously.

Best love story.

And I kinda do.
