im having fria thoughts today

did fria have any family??? friends??? people that wondered where she went

if she started to get isolated by ironwood when she got the maiden powers, just the grief of someone you knew, who was there, just vanishing into thin air

did anyone wonder where she went??

or just imagine she had a family, she was allowed to be with them. but he was always there. watching over them. they didn't know who he was, and she would never say. they just remember the day he came to take her away.

AND OH YEAH THE FACT THAT THERE'S PRETTY MUCH NO WAY FOR ANY OF HER FAMILY AND FRIENDS TO KNOW THAT SHE DIED UNLESS THEY HEAR FROM WINTER AND TEAM RWBY

team rwby pretty much rescued everyone so they would have to assume fria got out somehow, but they dont know where she is. so they try to find her, just to find out that she didn't.

that they didn't have a chance in the first place to be reunited with her because she died with atlas

WHY AM I HAVING SO MUCH FRIA THOUGHTS??

#rwby #rwby fria #i feel like whenever i have ideas im misinterpreting things or very very wrong so fear about putting in the tag

So what do you think the yellow color when penny gave her power to winter meant?

So I have two main ideas for that :

It has something to do with Jaune's Semblance, that he used right before Penny asked him to kill her.

I don't think we really know how his Semblance can expend exactly, we got some hints in Volume 7 with Vine asking him if he "ever thought about extending his Aura". So did he mean that like physically like Vine and Emerald did ? Or an extension in a different way, in time or space for example ? For now there's no confirmation, but it feels like there's something they will do (or have already done) with that.

So yeah, I was thinking that MAYBE, Jaune's Semblance impacted Penny's Aura, maybe it only changed colors because of it, or maybe it also gave her some strenght and reinforced her Aura ? Idk but this is one idea.

2. It has something to do with Ambrosius' work and actions after "recreating" Penny.

I noticed in a recent tiny rewatch of the chapter "Creation" of Volume 8 that when Ambrosius "recreate" Penny, there's this similar gold light kinda coming out of her body, my interpretation of that is that it's when her Aura was removed from her robot body. But we see right after through the robot body's vision that her Aura is really green inside her new flesh body, and we see it again while she fights and fall on the bridge at some point with Weiss. So her Aura REALLY should be green during the transfer, that's what would be logical since Fria's was blue. So I thought that maybe it was Ambrosius' actions, I know a lot of people said that Penny was only made of Aura after that and didn't have a flesh body. I mean, I believe she still had a flesh body (she bleeded after all-). But what Ambrosius did to her, maybe it made her body special ? She wasn't born in a flesh body after all. So maybe this particularity made her body glow in a different way, because her body was made differently than everyone. But it still doesn't really explain everything at all to me...

One last idea, more boring (krkr), is that it would be because of the place they are. This isn't a physical place, they kinda met in the "mind", or somewhere not on Remnant. It wasn't imagination but it was still somewhere not physical. So I guess it would have to do with that maybe, while we saw Fria's transfer in the physical world of Remnant. But yet idk, even if it's a different place, WHY would it be gold, like I don't really see the reason, it should have been green for it to be logical from the start x)

That's why something's a bit weird here for sure to me-

To be somewhat fair to ironwood and fria he was clearly still giving her medical attention and keeling her as safe as he could which given she seemingly had dementia makes some sense, letting her wander around the city probably wouldn’t have been idea

But keeling her completely isolated from anyone except winter and whoever offered medical attention was still cruel,

Yeah, for me the issue here is less so that Ironwood provided Fria with end-of-life care so much as the reasoning behind it. He's not caring for a feeble old woman in her final days out of the goodness of his heart (or at least not just out of the goodness of his heart; Ironwood is most certainly capable of kindness, but that isn't the primary factor in play here), he's doing it so that his handpicked candidate has ready access to the powers of the Winter Maiden.

Given that Fria is... definitely not all there, I definitely don't think she should be allowed to wander around unchecked with the powers of a fully realized Maiden, but the way the scene is framed doesn't raise this point and focuses on Ironwood keeping Fria contained because he wants to be able to transfer her power to the person of his choosing, rather than because she might pose a danger to others without full control of her faculties.

Nowhere are Ironwood's priorities with regards to Fria more clear than when he sends Winter to murder her for a strategic advantage. Make no mistake, what Ironwood ordered Winter to do was murder. Fria is not so much a person in Ironwood's calculus as she is a resource, and her life and agency become necessary sacrifices in pursuit of victory once Ironwood believes Atlas is sufficiently vulnerable.

This may be a controversial opinion, but Ironwood's decision was correct from a strategic standpoint, if poorly timed. Atlas needs every resource it can get to meet Salem's invasion, and there are few resources on Remnant more potent than a Maiden, especially when you consider the fact that you also gain access to the associated Relic. If employed correctly, the Relic of Creation could have been a massive boon to the war effort, despite its limitations. It could have been used to generate equipment, materiel, defenses, or even robotic reinforcements as needed. It can only do one of those at a time, but even that offers a level of flexibility the hidebound Atlesian military desperately needs to face Salem's forces, and Ironwood has enough troops to use the Staff as many times as he wants - and this is just the most basic, least creative use for the Staff I can think of!

Ironwood absolutely fucked up by sending Winter to claim the Maiden's power as soon as Cinder spooked him and not providing her with adequate cover, but he was absolutely right to try to establish control over the Maiden power from a strategic standpoint, because it expands his options significantly and opens up a number of new avenues by which to attack, defend, and retreat. Unfortunately, he was right kind of by accident, because he sends Winter to kill Fria because he's scared and wants to run from Salem, rather than because he's preparing to fight.

Moral implications aside, and there are a lot of them, I can't imagine that Winter "Solve Social Situations By Hitting Them" Schnee is particularly good at providing care to the elderly, and the scene where we're introduced to Fria heavily implies that Winter is the only one providing that care (because Ironwood can't risk the power going somewhere else).

I do think that Ironwood is genuinely trying to do the right thing and be a good person for most of his run on the show, in his own heavyhanded, hamfisted way, but when I look back on his actions and interactions in light of Volume 8, there's always this sense of "You aren't quite real to me, and I am prepared to sacrifice you (regretfully, perhaps, and maybe even with hesitation, but I will do it in the end) if it becomes necessary" to him. Still one of my favorite characters, though. I love how flawed and complex he is, and his voice and aesthetic are *chef's kiss*. Jason Rose did a wonderful job bringing the character to life.

One thing I can never figure out is why even a paranoid-ridden Ironwood would dedicate a secret hospital wing to keeping Fria alive. It's not like Fria's health took a turn for the worst after the Fall, Fria's been knocking on death's door for a long time now if Qrow jokes about it and Winter's 8 year career led up to becoming the Maiden. And it's not like Ironwood is above this either, Ironwood has always been a "The ends justify the means" character. He comes up with the options that no one else wants to voice and doesn't care. He even has a whole song dedicated to how much he doesn't care about people reacting to his morally dubious plans. So, if any character would have euthanized Fria, or at the very least zapped her powers away so the only thing keeping his Kingdom from being a giant crater isn't an old woman on life support, it'd be him and only him.

And that is not even counting the last time they kept a Maiden on life support Salem's forces attacked, took the power, and trashed the Kingdom on the way out.

What I'm rambling about is that for some reason Ironwood holds Fria in deep regards.

Ironwood is a contradiction. He wars with his humanity, believing and wanting to be emotionless in the name of efficiency while also pulling a complete 180 and will go above and beyond to protect his friends.

Let's look at Ironwood's job. He's the first, and hopefully, last, person in Remnant to hold a majority of the power on his Council.

But contrary as to what the show portrays, the General seat and the Headmaster seats are not the same seat. He would have had to either have been a Headmaster promoted to the General or vice versa.

Considering all the values Ironwood holds dear in his heart, the same values Qrow lambasts in World of Remnant, it's the latter.

Headmasters are either assumed by the Vice Headmaster if the current Headmaster dies (Glynda) or elected independently of their council's input, likely by the other Headmasters (Lionheart). Makes sense, considering they need to be briefed on the whole magic WMD in their basements thing, it's best that the common people don't vote others into this position.

Now, Ozpin detests the usage of armies and fleets. He knows it just causes more unrest and easier for Salem to manipulate, so Ironwood would have been on the bottom of his Atlas Headmaster list.

So I propose that Fria was the one that recommended/brought Ironwood into the Ozluminati. She saw something in him and trusted him to become a part of the bigger picture. And through that Ironwood earned the trust of Ozpin, enough for when the time came around it was easier to trust Ironwood as the Headmaster of Atlas and the Keeper of the Staff than getting another guy to do so.

And because of this that I think General Jimmy "Emotions Are Worthless" Ironwood prioritized Fria's comfort and was only willing to pull the plug when everything else failed.

Cuz if there's one thing Ironwood values, it's people believing in him.

i have couple ida do which rather do you7 cna do both you or want o or nither may becoeimng a maide i have trans girls whintely witner maiden where she befcome winter affer witner dies

May sighed and looked out over Mantle from the rooftop of an SDC warehouse, her eyes scanned the streets for any sign of trouble from grimm that breached the wall. Her hand stayed on the shaft of her weapon, at the ready at the first sign of danger.

“Marigold, what do you think you’re doing?”

“Trying to keep Mantle safe, unlike you.” May rolled her eyes and looked down at the figure below her. “Or is Ironwood pretending to care by having you patrol the warehouses, Winter?”

Winter sighed and climbed her way up onto the warehouse. “I’m trying to keep you out of trouble. That’s what teammates are for, arent they? Or did you forget about that the same day you abandoned your post?”

“I didnt abandon, I looked the other way. You’ve seen the state Mantle’s in, we cant leave it like this. We can go find the Happy Huntresses-”

“And you know exactly why we cant.” Winter put a hand on May’s shoulder. “We graduated from Atlas and are part of the military until our service is up. We’re both in line to be specialists, and from the sound of it, going to be very close to the general himself. We can finally have a place to belong.”

“I already have a place to belong!” May pointed out towards the city. “I belong out here, helping Mantle. I made that decision when I saw how everyone here is being treated. You see that wall out there? Its not keeping any grimm out!”

“That’s what the mechanical soldiers are for. They can handle the grimm.”

A scream from an older woman pierced through the air along with the sounds of a grimm roar. May sighed and pulled her weapon off her back and started to rush out to help. “You mean like that?”

“May! Get back here!” Winter groaned in frustration and used her glyphs to follow behind May. “I’m not done with you yet!”

“Then you better keep up with me!”

May weaved her way through the city streets she had started to get to know so well from her nightly excursions. Her semblance activated as she attempted to keep out of sight from the light of the warehouse district and to catch the grimm unaware and slam her staff into the grimm to knock it away.

The older woman stopped and watched May, a small smile crossed her lips. “You… came to save me?”

May nodded and put herself between the woman and the grimm, her hands gripped her staff tightly. “Of course I did. That’s what being a huntress is about, right?”

The older woman nodded and slowly knelt down as she watched May fight off the grimm. “I’ll… take a short rest…”

“Let me get… you to a hospital… first!” May slammed the end of her staff down into the grimm and pierced its chest. As the grimm started to turn to smoke and ash, she made her way to the older woman to help her up. “Its too cold to rest out here.”

“Such… a nice… young woman. What is your name?”

“May. And yours?”

“Fria.” Fria smiled and her eyes started to glow as she held May's arm, the world around them seemed to stop. “May is such a pretty name.”

May froze as she looked around at the snowflakes that held in place. “What’s going on?”

“We both know I’m not going to make it, so I’m bestowing you a gift.” Fria closed her eyes and took a breath as she felt her power move from her to May. The fire in her eyes began to fade as she opened her eyes once more and watched golden flames ignite in May’s. “A thank you for what you’ve done.”

“I.. I dont understand.” May stood up and watched as the snow around her began to fall again, panic started to take over and the storm overhead began to enrage. The wind picked up as the temperature dropped. Wet flakes of snow became rigid slivers of icicles that fell from the sky, pelting and shattering against anything they hit. All May could do was hold the woman close to protect her and rush to the nearest hospital. “I’m not letting you go yet!”

“May watch out!”

May froze as a glyph stopped her from getting hit by a truck that sped through the road, her legs shook as she took a few breaths. “I… I cant stop…”

Winter rushed over and pulled May into some cover and sighed. “What do you think you’re doing? Cant you see the storm has gotten worse and your aura-” She paused as she looked into May’s eyes and watched as the flames started to die down along with the storm. “What’s going on?”

“I… I dont know… I need to get this woman to the hospital but storm… the storm grew worse when she talked to me and I… I…” May took a few breaths to calm down as she looked at Winter and finally steadied herself. “What’s happening to me?”

Winter sighed and listened to the sound of an airship fly overhead and land in the alleyway. “I dont know, but I have a feeling Ironwood might.”

May slowly nodded and looked down at the woman in her arms. “Just until we know what’s going on.”

Maidenbowls so far (Amber VS Cinder doesn't count, since Cinder wasn't a Maiden yet).

1) Cinder (Fall Maiden) VS Raven (Spring Maiden). Cinder wants to take her power.

Winner: Raven. Cinder loses.

2) Cinder VS Fria (Winter Maiden). Cinder tries to steal her power as well.

Winner: Fria. Cinder loses. Again. Penny gets the powers.

3) Cinder VS Penny (Winter Maiden) in her android body. Cinder is trying to take Penny's power again.

Winner: Penny. This one was actually pretty embarrassing for Cinder.

4) Cinder VS Penny again.

Winner: Cinder. However, she doesn't get the Winter Maiden powers because Penny sacrifices herself before she can take them, and gives them to Winter, who immediately flies in to fight Cinder.

5) Cinder VS Winter (Winter Maiden).

Winner: Unclear. Although it was short, it looked like Winter was actually doing good, considering the woman was being held together by duct-tape; however, Cinder killed Weiss to distract her (please get another move Cinder first it hurts second it never works she ends up coming back later) so she could keep the relics, and then they both get interrupted by Salem. Therefore, there's not a real winner, since we never saw how the fight could have ended.

Will we ever get a maidenbowl in which Cinder isn't one of the fighters? I'd liked to see Winter and Raven beating each other up as Qrow eats popcorn and watches.

Anyway, can't wait for the next one! The Summer Maiden is probably gonna be involved. Good luck!

Just noticed a cool bit of foreshadowing over who becomes the winter maiden in the Volume 7 finale, when Penny and Winter are discussing Fria and the maiden powers.

This framing has all of the show’s eventual winter maidens standing together, Fria flanked by her successors on each side, and Penny and Winter looking in at their shared future, a season before each of them have all held the title.

Finding this stuff makes rewatches all that much better, and really shows that CRWBY has the major beats of the show planned out.

So between the fact that Winter has a white aura/blue eyes/blue flames while Cinder has an orange aura/gold eyes/orange flames, my final conclusion on the question of maiden flame colors is that they’re based on Vibes

#rwby #proof: orange eye flames evoke more fire imagery #blue eye flames signify more Schnee freedom than white would #and also makes a more deliberate contrast with orange than white does #ergo #Vibes #also related is the fact that fria’s eyes go from a very dark blue to paler than Winter’s with flames to match when she’s using her powers #so like #she apparently vibed as blue but not blue like her eyes

Head cannon of fria and oscar meet accidently by chance.

(the surveillance team, irresponsibly slept on their shift, fria leaving her quarters, impulsively wander the empty halls, searching)

-

Oscar:(walking alone, eyes focused on long memory, feeling a strong attachment to the object, and laughs to himself knowing it shouldn’t mean anything him. bump to some one) Oh, I’m sorry didn’t exp--

(both fria and oscar locked eyes to each other, unknown to each other, but felt they knew one another.)

-

Fria: Apologies “young man”(not knowing why she chokes on her last statement)

Oscar: Oh no! I should apologize, I didn’t mean to bump in to you, should have been more aware of my surroundings!!.. uhm I’m sorry!? but have we met? you seemed familiar?!

Fria: I’m afraid my memory isn’t what it used to be!, But I have this strange strong feeling I do know you?! I should know you!? But your appearance, age are different?!, But your eyes!.. Your eyes are still the same.. So old, Alone, Hurt, but still have so much hope, despite all you have seen.. I’m happy those haven’t changed!!

Oscar:(oscar couldn’t comprehend why, but he felt the urge to speak, a wrong, he knew nothing about) I- I am sorry!, I didn’t know this would become of you, to “ALL” of you over the centuries.. I thought- I thought i was helping, I did not wish to push my curse to any of you, I didn’t know!, I’m so so sorry!!!(chest, and shoulders heavy, oscar legs shaky, losing strength with each second, until he fell to his knees, tears falling, emotions running through his mind, shame, anger, self loathing, couldn’t tell if this was oz attempt to resurface or his!?)

-

Fria:(unaware why, the boy is in all four crying, apologizing to her?! she wanted to assured the boy she hold no malice, but didn’t, instead she went on her knees to be on his level, a gentle hand on his shoulder, encouraging him to look at her, not questioning or fighting it, fria allowed herself to the unkown force, then the words came to the surface) You don’t need to apologies for something you did not force upon, nor not knowing of the consequences by offering your magic, nor do I regret accepting it! even after so MANY years. I don’t fully understand it myself, but i feel it, emotions.. anger, betrayel, forsaken, honor, respect, admiration, but amongs these feelings, one stands out the most, OLDER then the rest, it’s empathy!

I know not many before me were good, some were cruel, others selfish, many scared, and few truly understood the burden wielding the mantle. It may not the same as your curse, But i understand! The guilt and shame you constantly carry with each life.. it almost broke me!! But then i was reminded of something that someone VERY old who could understand me, who struggle with it, and continues despite the hardship, who I helped!, knowing now, what i didnt knew then.. Thank you! for reminding me, we may not be able to change or choose who or what “We” are, but can press on, endure the cards we been dealt with, and hope for a better tomorrow, don’t you think so Oz?!(seeing the boy, puzzle and surprised expression... a memory came to fria mind, she didn’t knew him, but did once, long long ago, the same expression from the silly old hermit in the woods alone in his cabin. Fria smile, in some level glad much have changed but his silliness never did)

Oscar:(suprised and yet not at the same time, oscar saw and analyze fria warm kind eyes.. a memory came to him, one far older then ozpin, he remembers the young women in her blue robe, the first to sit in silence with him on the coldest winter, the eldest of four sisters) Winter!?

-

(before Fria could answer Oscar, the surveilliance team and guards came, looking for her to escort back to her quarters)

Guard: Ma’am your not suppose to be out of your quarters it’s not safe for you, please come with us.

Fria/winter: Oh dear! I forgot.. well it was nice talking and catching up with you, Old Man(satisfy speaking “Her”, “Their” truth, a piece of Fria peace of mind.. but one more reminder from an old friend), and remember never stop moving forward!

(Guards whispering to each other)

Guard.1: Her condition getting worse, she doesn’t know she was talking to a kid!

guard.2: Quiet, she’s has Alzheimer's, she’s not deaf!

-

hermit/Oscar: Never stop moving forward... Thank you, old friend!
