Weiss, sitting in class, leaning forward to hiss for Blake’s attention: Psst…psst…Blake?
Blake, leaning back, in a hushed whisper to Weiss: Weiss? You’re the last one I expected to talk during class.
Weiss, whispering back: Ignore that. I need your help.
Blake: With?
Weiss, her face growing red, a pencil tapping on a sheet of paper: Well…you read romance right? I…I need your help with a love letter.
Blake, raising her eyebrows in interest: Oh? To who?
Weiss, flustered: ….Pyrrha…
Blake, rolling her eyes: Pfft, of course. But sure I’ll help-
Oobleck, stepping up the stairs into the seats: Miss Schnee and Belladonna! Is something so captivating that you’re ignoring my lecture on the history of Vacuo’s disturbing lack of social decency? By all, you’ll be sorry you missed this when you ultimately visit and find everyone completely nake- Oh ho! Writing notes are we? So you ARE paying attention! Excellent! Care to read off your notes to the class?
Weiss, panicking, looking to Blake for help but only gets her back: Uhh…uhh…uhh…RUBY! HELP! EAT THIS!
Ruby, who’s been half asleep next to Weiss the entire time, jolts awake in a panic and grabs the note, shoving it into her mouth: COHDE RHED!
Oobleck, staring on with no sign of shock: …
Blake, horrified as she turned around to watch Ruby do so: …
Yang, who’s been sitting next to Blake, just as shocked: …
Weiss, gulping down her fear and sitting rigid, staring down to the front of the class room: …
Oobleck, turning heel and continuing again: Excellent determination Miss Rose! Yes! Allow this to be an opportunity for me to teach you all about the importance of comradery within a team setting! So…
Weiss, patting Ruby on the shoulder: Thank you.
Ruby, spitting the paper out in to her hand, holding it out: Ugh. Gross. Do you want this back?
Also another thing I noticed while rewatching RWBY:
While several people have pointed this out already, Ozpin always takes the blame for everything, even things that are not directly his fault: Salem’s curse, the Fall of Beacon, Pyrrha’s death, Gretchen’s death, etc etc.
And Salem, alternatively, places all the blame for her suffering and her heinous actions on the Gods and Ozpin, even though she’s been making all of these terrible decisions herself.
But I just realized that Cinder does the exact same thing as Salem, placing the blame of Roman Torchwick’s death on Ruby rather than herself: “I don’t have time for your misplaced blame, girl. If you want revenge, why don’t you take it up with Little Red?” Thing is, Neo’s blame is not misplaced. It was one of the Grimm Cinder let into the city that killed Roman, not Ruby. Of course, no one but Ruby even knows about that, but it is a rather interesting constant between the villains: all of the world’s horrors are someone else’s fault, not mine. This is pretty normal for bad guys in shows, I just thought it was a cool comparison.
Ozpin constantly takes the blame of all of his past mistakes, while Salem and Cinder constantly shift the blame of their actions onto relatively innocent third parties. What’s really interesting is that the FNDM does the same thing, blaming Ozpin for literally everything that has ever gone wrong ever, when all of that blame should be going to Salem and Cinder, the two who initiated all of the bad things in the series. I guess it’s just more evidence for the ‘the FNDM gives no shits about logic, women = good and men = bad’ folder haha.
i dont really… WANT… to leave tumblr. ive been here since 2011
no other platform has the right format for me to just randomly barf actual thoughts, joaks, and genuine creative content all in the same breath. i dont know how to compartmentalize
every other platform you gotta be a real person. Here you are you’re icon and username and whatever your hyperfixation is at the current moment
on tumblr you can make a post that just says “minecraft” and get 50k notes, where on twitter you have to steal tweets and instagram you have to be hot. tumblr is more like a bunch of kids let loose in walmart where there are no rules and the only god is a bald swedish man
