#or maybe pyrrha

[locking-the-tomb]

Camilla tucks frozen blocks into Nona's pillowcase.

Pyrrha calls them "Oh, my darling hearts, my sleeping babes, Daddy's own treasures."

The domesticity in the midst of fatalism and chaos is such a beautiful juxtaposition.

There was an era of my life when I was responsible for all Rooster Teeth and RWBY social media. In 2016, we decided to create a bunch of Valentine’s Day cards for the show. All but one was approved…

*wakes up*

I wonder how Pyrrha feels about her dead lover's dead daughter having the same name as her dead best friend

*goes back to sleep*

[no-man-no-woman]

Okay, I'm going to be very direct and I'm sorry if I come off as mean, but I just have to say it: I hate people who consider NtN a bad book and Nona a bad and/or childish narrator.

First of all: Nona is six months old and dying, it makes sense that she's a "childish" narrator, of course her point of view is strange and slightly useless at some points; she's treated like a child! She thinks a bit like a child!

Nobody says anything to her. I think that's also something to keep in mind: Gideon and Harrow were told things, even if they were half-lies [or just lies] at times, Nona is purposely kept in the dark (even if it's with good intentions for the most part).

And yes, the setting is different, but also (in my opinion) quite more grim than GtN and HtN because it's basically set in a big refugee camp, New Rho is an active war zone (the bombed out buildings where Nona and the gang spend their afternoons, the way the kids at school talk about violence...) but both Nona and her environment are highly desensitized to it. The BoE people are pretty much the dictionary description of guerrilla fighters. Hot Sauce is a radicalised child. Kevin, from the way he is described, seems to have suffered a severe catatonic shock. And Nona doesn't know that.

New Rho is all she's ever known, but the horror, for homely it feels at times, is the basis of it all. Children so used to mass ejecutions that they thalk about them while eating, gas mask that have to be kept on whenever you are outside, a teacher so used to child prostitution that was her first thought upon meting Nona's family, Hot Sauce not thinking twice before shoting her friend's brains out, Honesty being a drug dealer…

Also: I think the underlying body horror of this book is a fucking gift. Phyrra living in her dead best friend corpse, Phyrra drinking bleach because she was bored, Palamedes and Camilla fusing along the way (even before Paul), Nona not remebering how to move correctly at times, Judith sharing a body with a planet's soul, Nona's tantrums destroying her body over and over again, Aim not being allowed to be just herself and having to be the Mensager.

ntn spoilers!!

wait is g1deon still alive in there? there’s a scene in ntn where i swear ianthe briefly talks to g1deon and then pyhrra comes back. but they’re hearing the convo over the walkie talkie so i think nobody notices

i saw this scene while trying to pull quotes for an unrelated meta and i forget the immediate prior context, as for why pyrrha’s there and if she’s just pretending to be g1deon

here

so what has me confused is idk the prior context for pyrrha’s whereabouts? like was she with ianthe? i could go back and read lol but my brain is fried and im procrastinating other things

like i forget if pyrrha is simply pretending to be g1deon for ianthe’s sake.

just from this scene, it seems like nona hears g1deon— “familiar voice in unfamiliar tones”— i.e. that’s either g1deon talking or pyrrha pretending to be g1deon talking

also idk who the him is who corona doesnt want to go anywhere with. i think it’s g1deon, but it could be nabs’ corpse?? or some other male character im entirely forgetting?

i think the first time i read this i probably assumed it was pyrrha talking the whole time, but now, out of context, im seeing some of tamsyn’s characteristic open interpretation writing

like when she writes dialogue in an intentionally non straightforward way so that there’s multiple interpretations and one of those is either foreshadowing or “secret” info lol

and also just the way this dialogue is written so intentionally confusing im convinced tazmuir’s hiding something in it

im gonna feel really stupid if like two scenes prior pyrrha is pretending to be g1deon and i just forgot lol, but pleaseeee someone tell me what’s going on here

also it would be so on brand for tamsyn to soft launch g1deon’s survival amid a tridentarii reunion so that all us freaks are distracted

i’m choosing to believe that one of the driving forces for merging souls into paul is so that cam and pal wouldn’t have to fight over pyrrha

[maxiemumdamage]

So, in honor of Pyrrha’s birthday — or more accurately, the RWBY Chibi short the YouTube account reposted about her today — I have a question:

Weiss says Pyrrha won the Mistral Regional Tournament four years in a row, which is a world record. We don’t know for sure that Pyrrha became a cereal mascot because of the victories, but since we learn those things in conjunction with one another, and then Jaune says mascot status is usually reserved for star athletes…probably it’s connected.

But is it a direct link, or just a causal one? Do winners of the Regional Tournament, in Mistral or everywhere, get some kind of brand deal associated with winning? Like, they sponsor the event and then the winner becomes their new celebrity promoter in return? Is it optional? Can you turn it down?

And the most interesting question to me: did every winner of those Regional Tournaments get the same brand deal/sponsorship? Was it only for Pyrrha because she went undefeated several years in a row and was pretty, or was this a regular deal?

Because assuming that:

A.) Regional Tournament Winners consistently got if not Pumpkin Pete’s specifically then a similar brand deal for winning, and:

B.) Remnant’s other kingdoms have a Regional Tournament like Mistral’s (we know Vale has multiple junior combat schools, so it seems likely they at least also have competitions between them)…

I mean, given her skill and relatively standardized path to a Huntsman Academy, it’s perfectly plausible that Yang also won at least one such tournament while in combat school. And therefore that Yang also spent at least a few months as a cereal mascot — which Ruby and Qrow would probably tease her about.

And I’d really enjoy writing that.

Ianthe, Pyrrha and Palamedes are my top 3 the locked tomb characters, so of course I drew them first. Character design isn't really my passion, but I like what I did with them

[backpackingspace]

Listen listennnn did yall see how smitten pyrrha was when juane pulled her in close to slow dance did you see her go from my teammate is nice and cute to fully 100% in love?! Because I think about that moment constantly

[patient-779h41-n7]

Palamedes is that meme "me and the bad b*tch i pulled by being autistic" but it's Dulcinea AND Camilla AND Pyrrha

random designs, they started out as character fusions but kinda took on a life of their own
