Closed starter for @atdusk----x

Etta closed the book and stared at the soft flame of the candle for a minute before finally blowing it out. The glow quickly diminished as darkness converted everything in its shadow. She couldn't have been more disappointed by her efforts. Despite holding many talents summoning wasn't one of them, and her latest attempt here only proved it. Sure she could make a perfect tincture or bring back a plant past the point of no return, but evocation always seemed out of reach for the young witch. She let out a frustrated exhale, as she grabbed the grimore and pushed it into her bag. She was interrupted by the snap of a twig. Startled by the sound she gazed over her shoulder, but saw nothing under the cast of moonlight. Etta continued to clear her circle when she felt a presence. Suddenly she wasn't alone. Standing up quickly her bag fell to the ground as she scanned her surroundings just before she called out, "Is anyone there?

A few personal faves discovered while digging around in my Mononoke memes folder.

[bestworstcase]

this is a spinning-circles-in-the-office-chair thought but how did salem find out how the relics work. she knows the lamp has a “password” and a limited number of questions, and that using the staff to create something will destroy its previous creation.

we know she’s never used the lamp before, otherwise she’d have known jinn’s name. it’s possible she had the staff at one point and lost it, although i’m skeptical of ozma’s ability to get it back from her if she did—man is a dreadful strategist. she doesn’t seem to know what the relic of choice is: the lamp, the staff, the sword, and “the beacon relic.”

spins chair.

the way her expression changes when ruby says “we’ve seen what you’re capable of. the lamp showed us.” salem doesn’t react to the interruption in any way until she hears the lamp showed us.

from ironwood, we know that ozpin told the inner circle that the lamp can answer three questions per century and that the questions were all used up before ozpin sealed the lamp in the vault. we also know that ozpin used the staff to raise atlas at a point when ironwood was already part of the inner circle, meaning within the last couple decades, which necessitated giving a similar explanation of what the staff can do and its limitations to the whole inner circle; in v7 ironwood knows the staff can only make one thing at a time.

salem is startled, and then coldly irritated, when she hears ruby say the lamp showed us.

she’s not upset because the girls learned the truth; she’s upset because all the information salem has about the relics came to her via member(s) of ozpin’s inner circle, and ruby just revealed that at least one thing ozpin told his acolytes was a lie. as far as salem knew before that moment, the lamp was dormant. useless to her. when ruby says “the lamp showed us,” both the assertion that the lamp is out of questions and that the lamp only has a finite number of questions it can answer are thrown into question.

given what salem does immediately after getting her hands on the lamp a few hours later…

“the lamp showed us” switches salem’s train of thought to “the lamp is still usable?” and then to “if that’s so, i could ask it questions myself” and then to “we still haven’t uncovered the location of the beacon relic” and she’s only half-listening to what ruby says to her while she turns this over in her mind and what comes out of her mouth is “your mother said those words to me,” because summer rose is the one who told her, per ozpin, that the lamp was all out of questions. “she was wrong, too.”

ART REF FOR STANLEY

Before he seemingly escaped the parable he used to sleep near the skip button on some put together bed of plants. However as days turned into weeks he couldn't bear being near one of the narrator's creations anymore as it constantly reminded him of his lost companion.

So yeah! this is one of two Stanleys from my tsp au!

Why two you might ask? This Stanley and Nge aren't from the same parable therefore two Stanleys and two narrators

(Idk this is like my first time in years I posted something regarding lore in any way so I'm not really sure what to add.. )
