#RWBY Lewis

[thepalestrose]

What could have been...

[hadesisqueer]

So basically. Alyx regretted what she'd done to Jaune and the mess she'd caused at the Ever After. So she let Lewis go back to Remnant but she chose to stay, because she wanted to make up for her mistakes. And that fucking cat killed her for that.

So after all, it really was Lewis who wrote The Girl Who Fell Through The World. He went back to Remnant, saw that Alyx never made it back, and erased himself from the story so he could write one in which his sister had a happy ending. And he wrote the Cat as an ally because... well... he never knew.

Fuck that cat.

Jaune: *finishing his latest puppet* ... What should i name you?

Penny: What about Charlotte? Or Emily? Or Anne?

Jaune: Maybe? I also find Victoria to be a great name.

Alyx: *bored out of her mind* Why is it that important? It's not like it was your child or anything.

Penny: ...

Jaune: W-well no, but you know, one can wish upon a star.

Alyx: *laughing* Like that would work.

Lewis: Alyx! For the love of god shut up.

Alyx: *surprised* What? It's a doll Lewis! If they want children, there's other methods than "wishing upon a star"!

Jaune: ... We...

Penny: We can't have children.

Alyx: *stopping mocking them* ... What?

Jaune: We don't know why but Penny can't get pregnant. We... Tried, multiple times but...

Penny: *sad smile* It never worked out... But then Jaune decided that he would make children for us.

Alyx: ... I'm... Sorry. I didn't know...

Penny: We don't blame you Alyx, but you know now. That's what's important.

Alyx:... Then what about Marie? I think it would fit her.

Jaune: *smiling* And i think you are right. Thank you Alyx.

Once upon a time...

Lewis's grandson: Grandpa, can you tell me a bedtime story?

Lewis: Of course.

Lewis picks up his grandson and puts him on his lap.

Lewis: Once upon a time there was a man who was considered to be the world's weakest huntsman. However his fate completely change when he entered a mysterious world. He was later know as...

Lewis: The Rusted Knight

[kazookazu]

Me when I absolutely kill myself at this scene.

[ryuto12]

Never allow yourself to forget that Lewis would go on to describe Jaune as handsome when he wrote The Girl Who Fell Through The World

[schneezburger]

THE LITTLE GUYS CAME BACK IN BEYOND 😭😭😭😭

[rachetmath]

Pyrrha: Wow.

Alyx: Good times.

Penny: Okay, really though., what changed? Both of you got along well with Jaune.

Lewis: I know. I still cared about Jaune. I really wished I knew what changed between him and Alyx.

Pyrrha: Yeah. It seems like... like... Penny.

Penny: Way of ahead.

Roman: Don't worry, we got him.

CC: ALYX HELP!!!

Alyx: .... You son of bitch.

Hazel: You bastard.

CC: I did what I had to do. You wouldn't understand.

Hazel: You were plotting. You took and killed one of his kids. Tried to take his friend. You make me sick. You're the reason why dogs are man's best friends.

Pyrrha: And women.

Roman: And if you're wondering why I'm here, I didn't take too kindly what you did to my friend.

CC: Please. Please. Spare me. Alyx, help me. We're friends.

Alyx: We were.

Lewis: Suffer.

[aspiringwarriorlibrarian]

God, Lewis wrote the story because he wanted to help Jaune get out. That just hurt.

The fact that Lewis figured the way out of the Ever After and sent it back to Jaune and Jaune never got it because he thought it was Alyx lying to him. Because Lewis never realized Alyx had poisoned him, never realized how badly the trust between them had broken.

Lewis and Theodore, Theory Post 2

After my crack theory post last year I have become increasingly convinced that Theodore is, in fact, Lewis. or at least a descendant.

Listen, again, the story of Dorothy (Theodore's allusion)--a kid who gets whisked away to another world and gets to go home completely changed--matches so well with Lewis's as Volume 9 spelled out.

The design--hair and outfit--kinda strongly hint for me that Lewis is either Theodore or an ancestor of him. Especially considering that Sun and Neptune both state that the headmasters might have the answer as to where RWBYJ are.

[nadien-aqui1]

Some time in the Ever After

Rusted Knight Jaune: So uh - heh - hey, uh, random question. Uh, you didn’t hear anything… weird last night… did you?

Alyx and Lewis: Uhh…

The night before

RK Jaune: *distant crying in the woods* Penny! Oh gODs! WHy coUlDN’t I sAvE yOU?! WhY?!

Alyx, Lewis, and Curious Cat: …

RK Jaune: Ah, Penny! PENNY! *cries with ferocity*

End of Flashback

Alyx: Uh, no! Definitely not!

Lewis: I’m, like, a super heavy sleeper, so…

RK Jaune: Good! Good. Ahem. Yeah, sleep is… sleep is good.

Alyx: Soo…

CC: *Zero hesitation* Who’s Penny?

RK Jaune: I KNEW IT!

[pedanticat]

I hope that get a novelization or animated miniseries or some kind of adaptation of The Girl Who Fell Through the World since even with the new info, there's still so many unanswered questions:

How did Alyx and Lewis wind up in the Everafter?

What was Alyx and Lewis dynamic like?

What did Alyx see when she saw the herbalist?

How did Alyx and Lewis finally arrive at the tree in the first place?

What did the tree do to make her grow a conscience?

Why did Lewis leave his sister behind? Did he believe that she would return one day?

Does the loneliness that "Alyx" felt in her chest in the book refer to Lewis describing how he feels lonely without Alyx?

[hadesisqueer]

Alyx writing that book without saying she manipulated Curious Cat, poisoned Jaune and sacrificed her own brother

[howi99]

Jaune: So, what's your story? How did you get here?

Lewis: To be completely honest, i have no idea. One moment me and my sister were following a strange looking guy with a strange staff... Like the one you have with you, when i think about it. Then, we woke up "here". I'd say, i never quite thought a world like this could exist in parallel to ours.

Jaune: Just for information, in what years are we? Back in the real world i mean.

Lewis: 470.

Jaune: ... Old or new calendar?

Lewis: what?

Jaune: the one used before or after the great war?

Lewis: Great war? I know there's some tension between Vale and Atlas but a war?

Jaune: the old it seems. Welp, just going to tell you right now; move to vacuo once you get out. It's going to be a lot less... Violent there.

[maxiemumdamage]

Ooh, I like the note that Alyx and Lewis were from pre-war Vacuo. Going by their super formal outfits, maybe even part of the monarchy or upper crust? It might explain why Alyx was been a bit hostile to the Afterans at times, with it being a very insular country that has been burned by supposed allies eventually taking advantage of them.

[averagemrfox]

Lewis writing the story of The Girl Who Fell Through the World as a way to help team rwby find Jaune again one day at the start and then it becoming a memorial for his sister is supremely fucked up of crwby 🥲

But the confirmation that they were from Vacuo seals Theodore being their descendant for me
