Watch Nora and Ren (and evil dudes) have these spiffy designs... and then Jaune will literally just have a stubble and worn jeans as extras to his old clothes.

"The whole song is basically about not being used and that the truth must come out. How there's loss with what Ozpin does but no gain."

Because she know the truth(or more than other) about Ozpin, is foreshowing her action in volume 3, also is the implication he let Summer(who probably was silver eyes warrior) die to stop salem)

I kept thinking that to parallel Cinderella story, she was trying to be a hunter like Ruby, them she saw SOMETHING that made stray of that path, in this case Ozpin will be the "Prince" and Salem the fairy godmother

Yeah, what he did and to what extended is hard to said, aparenly he create a huge lie and I think the hunter system is part of that, if he is really that old I think he was the first hunter or create the one as whole to stop Salem or at least to slow it down, sacrifice said "you faith in ancient way/leave your head a maze" so yeah, is hard to said what happen with him

I'm told Blake's got a Belladonna flower behind her in that recent picture.

That is indeed some Deadly Nightshade (because that's what the Belladonna plant is) behind Blake.

Played enough Alchemists in Oblivion and Skyrim to recognize it off the bat [lol]

Rewatching episode 3-3 made me even more convinced that Qrow and Winter are secretly in cahoots. The wink was what made me suspicious the first time around, but this time I was watching them very carefully during their fight. The smile, grin, and/or smirk at each other A LOT. They were both having the time of their lives during their ostensibly bitter hate-duel.

Or the person with whom you have ALL the Belligerent Sexual Tension. I thought the cheekiness was one-sided from Qrow, though.

[up]Yeah a this point it feel both Qrow and Winter want to have angry-sex, the BST was all over it.

Whenever I see the initials "BST" I always think of "Base Stat Total" because of Pokémon.

There's probably a joke to be made out of that.

Eh. Seemed suspicious to me. I could be wrong, but those two reek of showmanship.

And after finishing taking my roommate's little sister through RWBY, it's a bit more alarming. I know it's the popular thing to assume Ironwood is secretly a bad guy, but I'm actually starting to wonder about Qrow. Apart from his suspicious behavior with Winter, two things really stand out to me.

In "It's Brawl in the Family", Qrow shows up late to the revelation that Cinder and her forces are already inside Beacon and proceeds to chew out Ironwood for not calling to tell him that his investigation is basically void and to come back. During which time, this exchange happens:

  • Winter: They had reason to assume you'd been compromised.
  • Qrow: And I have reason to assume you don't need to be here! Seriously, who invited her?

Two questions are raised in this exchange and never answered. First question, why did they assume Qrow was compromised? Why is no one concerned he might still be compromised? Qrow abruptly flips the accusation into a dig at Winter and no one talks about why everyone else in the room was apparently withholding information from him out of suspicion and distrust.

Second, why is it Winter who has to tell him? As Qrow points out, why does she even know anything at all? Who "invited" Winter to be part of the inner circle? Evidently no one, given that Ironwood dismisses her immediately after this, implying she's not supposed to be part of it at all. As 1) someone who knows why they don't trust Qrow, 2) the person who reveals the information to Qrow instead of a member of the inner circle, and 3) someone who evidently isn't supposed to be part of this conversation at all, it seems she invited herself.

And then Qrow gives her that suspicious wink on her way out the door.

The other thing that bugs me is the tense moment in "Heroes and Monsters" where it looks like Qrow is about to attack Ironwood but then he's just killing a Grimm behind him before cutting off Ironwood's attempt to explain with, "You idiot. I know you didn't do this."

The season up to this point has tried to raise questions about Ironwood's loyalties as a deflecting Red Herring before revealing The Un-Twist that Ironwood is completely innocent. This scene is framed with that intention; there's a moment of suspense over whether Qrow will mistakenly believe Ironwood is a traitor and attack him, but then we find out that no, it's cool.

But why doesn't he? Qrow's been nothing but hypercritical and spiteful towards Ironwood and Winter all season. He immediately believes the worst out of both of them, yet in this moment, the scene is so busy focusing on the relief of Qrow not trying to murder Ironwood that the question of how he is so absolutely certain, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Ironwood has nothing to do with this is never even brought into question.

Given the circumstances, there is every reason to be suspicious of Ironwood and Qrow is exactly the kind of bastard who would be asking the questions. But he's not. He knows Ironwood is innocent. Knows it. Paranoid Uncle Qrow doesn't need even a second's convincing.

Finally, as others have noted, it's weird that Qrow never seems to recognize Mercury, Emerald, and Cinder. But it stops being weird if he's not trying to find them.
