Oh my does this only add to my feelings that Salem and Oscar meeting is NOT going to go well haha. I promise nothing will get to me as long as its in a fictional show, so no matter how upsetting the content I will personally be fine. If anything I’ll just enjoy some angst potential and the discussion points I’ll gain from it.

But I’d still like to say based off this reply, anyone else who follows me and isn’t a first member who is more sensitive to upsetting content, please be wary and perhaps reach out and ask your first member friends what warnings you will need.

I’ve now watched up to episode 3. Again, not a first member so please take care in talking with me about spoilers.

Anyways, I will admit I’ve been enjoying this volume a lot more than I expected to. I think the way Clover and Qrow’s entire deal was handled last volume just put a sour taste in my mouth and I forgot how enjoyable the rest of rwby is. I’m still not really enjoying the writing choices around Qrow so far, I just don’t like how bloodthirsty he’s become at all it feels wrong to me, but also I’ve only seen him for that short bit in episode 2. I’m willing to give it some time to see where it goes.

Especially considering I didn’t like the Ren and Nora plot line at first haha, but it’s won me over now because I like the direction they’re leading it in. The talk Nora had with Weiss and Blake was a really great one, and it’s wonderful to see her getting development. Now all we need is a flip side of getting more insight on Ren, and even hopefully some development on his front as well, and I’ll be extremely happy. I think after what happened to Nora, perhaps we’ll get some developments with him? I can’t imagine he’ll be doing too well after seeing the state she’s in.

Let’s see now, predictions for what’s next... I do think the next episode is going back to Oscar, and I do believe everyone will fail to save him. I’m extremely curious how Oscar and Salem interacting is going to go. Beyond that I can’t wait to see how Oscar interacts with any of Salem’s crew, if he’s allowed to meet them. Oscar and Tyrian interactions sound like they’d be both strange and fun to watch (mostly because theyre two of my favorite characters and I love seeing my favorites get shoved into weird scenarios for interactions. Like the scene of Qrow, Robyn, Jacques, and Watts in prison together that was FANTASTIC)

And that wraps up all my thoughts so far I think. Feel free to have discussions with me on the volume if you’d like! If you want to send me asks about the eps that are out for first members feel free to just put what episode you’re talking about at the start and I will save it until I can watch the episode, then reply asap. Don’t worry as long as you put the episode at the start I won’t read them so don’t worry about spoilers haha. 

Anyways, I’m genuinely intrigued to see where this is going. Good day everyone!

Who's your favorite characters? I wanna know who you like to discuss best :D

Thank you sweet anon!

Obviously Ozpin is my favorite above everyone else, he always has been. Oscar simply by proxy is also a favorite! I love both of them very much.

Very next would be Qrow, I’ve loved him ever since his introduction.

I also love Clover, Ren, Nora, Tyrian, and Watts. 

I’d love discussing any of them! I still am totally open to other characters discussions, but those are my favorites and I certainly have a lot of thoughts about all of them!

Please feel free to send me your thoughts or questions or discussion points on anyone, I love talking out characters!

Will you be doing discussions during volume 8?

Yes, I’m always open for discussions.

I will be one episode behind, as I am not a first member, but if anyone wants to talk about any episodes my inbox is open! All I ask is to say which ep you are discussing at the start, and know that if you are a first member and send me asks about an ep not out to me yet I will save your ask until I see the ep. 

Since Ozpin is back we might have some fun discussions in our future!  I missed him so much, I’m so glad he’s returned.

BUT I would like to say, despite being an Ozpin themed blog, I enjoy discussing any part of the show so feel free to send me discussion points on any part of the show.

I’d also like to apologize if I come across more critical of the show than I have in the past. It’s lost a lot of my love from some of it’s writing decisions towards the end of last volume, but I’d like to keep watching and see where this volume takes us. I’ve decided I want to allow myself to view it under a more critical lens this volume and see how I feel about the writing directions. I mean no hate or harm though! I want to be fair in my critiques if any arise, and do not plan on bashing mindlessly at all.

This got long winded haha. The short answer is YES. I am totally open to discussions about Volume 8.

Decided to bring back character of the day! So here's Character of the Day #i forgot: Ozpin

Ozpin has always been one of my favourites and I just started to love him even more after volume 6. Everything he says is just *chefs kiss*, i genuinely think my favourite part of volume 7 was his monologue about fear, and this part of Burning The Candle always stood out to me 💚

If Oz was a school teacher 👨🏼‍🏫, do you think Oz will appreciate having me as a student 👨‍🎓 ? Let’s just say, in Highschool and Middle-School due to my Autism-Asperger and hardwork, I was always the pride of my teachers 👩🏼‍🏫

I think Oz has a lot of love for all his students, so he’d definitely appreciate you too! 

He's been found! Thank you all for your help.

my dog went missing last night (date im making this post is 7/13/20) please spread this and help me find him

HAHA I forgot to post this

have some ozpin art,, as a treat:^)

I’ve only posted about Oz ships when asked about it, which I believe has only been a few, like 3-4, times? Otherwise I try to keep shipping content off this blog, because it’s meant for Ozpin (and Oscar bc they are too intertwined to go ignored!)

Do you have rwby or Ozpin blogs you follow that aren’t shipper blogs? I want my feed to be filled with dad pin

I don't really follow any RWBY blogs except for a couple of them for information (like for Amity Arena and merch, etc) but even with those blogs I can't avoid shipping as much as I'd like to. Even my blog here features one ship, that has nothing to do with Ozpin aside from the two halves of it being his colleagues. Maybe somebody here who has a nonshipping blog (and Oz dad content in particular) would like to raise their hand?

1 How much do you think Ozpin was aware of the world while locked in Oscar’s head? Personally, I think he vaguely felt Oscar’s thoughts, but had to come closer to really know what was happening. Oz probably only looked when Oscar panicked, to check in case he’s needed. Maybe Oz kept almost up-to-date - he knew they were in Atlas and working with James, knew they were happy and exhausted and possibly knew about the tower project or the election, but ultimately missed a lot of details.

2 That is to say. I think its funny if Oz had no idea what was happening in Vol6 finale. Oscar’s stress has risen all day, Oz kind of knew theres a plane and a plan, and suddenly there is a giant robot. He has no idea where the robot came from. But there is a robot shooting them. Should he join the fight? Do they even want his help? Whos controlling the robot – Atlas, Vacuo, Salem? He should at least tell Oscar how to land the plane, the robot just shot them. Whys Oscar in a plane anyway?

-------------------------

Haha, honestly that's a really funny concept!

The way I pictured it myself is that when Ozpin and Oscar were sharing pretty even ground, switching back and forth a lot and such, Oz probably was aware of everything going on. I’d imagine he stuck close to the front of the conscious to stay aware since he was a very active player in everything going on. But after everyone got mad at him and he secluded himself, he pushed himself so far back that Oscar couldn’t even feel him anymore. I think at that point, he stopped being aware of the outside world.

It hurt too much to be aware you know? These people he loved were angry with him, he had hurt them despite not meaning to, and he didn’t want to hear anything else they might say, so he locked himself away.

Like you said though, I’m sure he could still feel what Oscar was feeling, and that’s why we saw him make a comeback in very dire situations. When Oscar starts feeling like he’s going to die, Oz definitely felt it and came back to help.

Thank you for the fun ask!! I enjoy contemplating these things haha.
