Ship ask. Magna x Eirwen, Oscar x Eirwen.

Okay, here we go. Apologies for the wait! Life's been kicking my butt.

Magna x Eirwen

Makes sense, compels me!

I mean, duh. I have a bias. Obviously!

I made Eirwen just to ship her with Magna. That's why she has ice magic to compliment Magna's flame magic. It's kinda funny how the choices I made for her character worked out. According to the manga, Magna describes his ideal partner as:

Now, one would expect someone of that description to be like super hyper or bubbly. And then there's me translating "lively" as: she has anxiety!

Which honestly works out well for their dynamic. Eirwen's anxiousness comes from growing up in an environment where she wasn't given a lot of positive reinforcement. She was born with a lot of magic power yet doesn't have the confidence to use it to its full extent. Meanwhile, Magna is the polar opposite. He has confidence and bravado for days, but his mana pool is on the smaller side. Eirwen has the capacity to keep up with him and then some. She just needs the boost in morale. Magna, being the hype man that he is, definitely sparks that energy in her to keep going. That encouragement helps her come out of her shell a lot more. Once Eirwen starts becoming more sure of herself, Magna falls for her more and more.

Eirwen, in turn, is also very bright and helps remind Magna not to behave so impulsively. She's the overthinker while Magna is a driven go-getter. She helps calm him down when he's about to lose his temper, and he soothes her worries. They make a great team. ❤️

Oscar x Eirwen

Makes sense, compels me! (In a platonic way)

God, these two are cute despite them not being meant to be! It's definitely a "looks good on paper" type of ship.

Oscar is definitely the ideal candidate Eirwen's noble family would want her to marry. He's rich, has an excellent pedigree, and is very intelligent and successful in his field. He is also such a patient, well-mannered gentleman. He would treat Eirwen so well and vice versa.

The sad thing is that Oscar and Eirwen can't exactly grow from one another. Maybe they can help each other with improving their abilities and research. However, they both have very similar personalities and temperament. I feel like they would keep each other in their comfort zones to not rock the boat. Both of them need to grow as people and require someone to motivate them to step out of their comfort zone and give them the courage to do so.

They would make wonderful friends, though. I would love to think of an AU where they were childhood friends that parallel played a lot. I picture Eirwen has fondness for him like that. If they were in an arranged marriage situation, it would definitely be the type where they have separate bedrooms. Not because they dislike one another, but maybe because the lifestyle of the other doesn't align. It would be a prudent marriage where the only passion they have is in their hyperfixations.

[bestworstcase]

(hi again fsdf)

If you haven't already touched on it, do you have any thoughts on Mercury's role in the narrative and his possible redemption in V10+? 🥺✨

first i gotta soapbox a little bit grfxvhk

redemption is conceptually fraught because it inherently entails forgiveness of a debt; to redeem someone is to save them, through either forgiveness or repayment on their behalf. the person redeemed by this transaction is often reduced to passive object, and even in circumstances when they do act, the extent of their agency is asking to be forgiven. within the context of fiction specifically this puts the onus for change onto the heroes—the villain is given salvation through heroic forgiveness—and generally elides both the villain’s agency and their emotional interiority because the focus of the redemption arc is on the villain’s salvation.

(this is fundamentally a christian narrative: sin begets suffering begets repentance, often in the form of sacrificial death, followed by forgiveness. it’s also why everyone went nuts for zuko, because his character arc follows the beats of redemption from inside his head, so the character interiority isn’t lost.)

anyway i bring this up not to be pedantic but because ‘redemption’ in rwby is treated as an innately coercive mechanism:

the albain brothers frame kidnapping blake and assisting in the assassination of the elder belladonnas to ilia as an “opportunity for redemption.” implicitly, forgiveness for her “past failures” and her continued place in the white fang is contingent on her obedient participation in what amounts to a violent coup and profound betrayal of someone she loves. redemption is the weapon used to keep her in line.

salem justifies her decision to abandon cinder after haven on the grounds that cinder failed and must therefore be “left to toil in her isolation until she has redeemed herself.” salem is willing to forgive cinder’s failure (and has thought about giving cinder her aid often enough that she feels compelled to raise the possibility specifically to declare that she won’t), but withholds forgiveness to force cinder into this penitent quest for the lamp.

the divine ultimatum is a redemptive project: if mankind is “unchanged,” they will be found “irredeemable” and wiped from existence. the question of whether humanity deserves to exist at all is made contingent on humanity coming together in humble obedience to the gods (humans weren’t executed because they fought among themselves but because they “demanded things of [their] creators,” thus the salient part of the mandate is “if you still demand our blessings” because that is the sin which must be redeemed). and salem phrases her rejection of this mandate as a rejection of redemption itself.

contrast this against the way the narrative handles actual villain-to-hero arcs:

blake confronts ilia directly on both the morality of her actions and how ilia feels about what she’s doing until ilia voices her internal conflict; after ghira saves her life, ilia intervenes to stop corsac’s vengeful retaliation, then becomes the first to step forward and say she’ll stand with blake for haven academy. blake’s emotional appeal and ghira’s decision to save her life both come from a place of wanting to help ilia, without any expectation that she now ‘owes’ them and the inflection point in ilia’s arc is her actions—stopping corsac and declaring she’ll stand with blake if blake will have her. blake’s forgiveness is (in contrast to the albains’ “opportunity for redemption”) an overt rejection of the idea that ilia deserves to be punished for her past failures.

similarly, emerald’s defection is motivated by her fear and moral scruples which she can no longer ignore, and oscar explicitly makes the point that whether they choose to forgive her or not has no bearing on the fact that she defected. the heroes are angry and distrustful but do not inflict any punishment or demand anything from her except that she keep her unhelpful commentary to herself. the idea that she could work with them is presented as an invitation, not a requirement.

winter defects from ironwood and actively reaches out to her sister to offer whatever help they need; there is never a question of forgiveness, only acceptance of her desire to do the right thing.

neo tortures ruby to the point of attempted suicide, and yet as soon as she decides to change herself for the better, she is given the freedom to do so, one way or another.

the distinction in essence is that redemption is explicitly punitive (“you have done wrong and deserve punishment; my forgiveness is a reward you must earn”) whereas the actual villain-to-hero arcs center atonement (“i have done wrong and now i’m trying to do better, whether or not you forgive me”) and compassion (“no matter what you’ve done in the past, what matters is what you choose to do now, and everyone deserves a chance to find their own way”).

SO all of that is a lengthy way of getting to: mercury isn’t due for redemption, by which i mean no one is going to ‘save’ him in the way a lot of the fandom seems to expect emerald to do. (although i do think emerald will play an important role in his story.) rather, i expect mercury’s arc in vacuo to be about what does he want?

narratively, the point of pairing mercury with tyrian isn’t about terrorizing mercury per se. it’s that both of these characters are nihilists. tyrian seeks total annihilation, mercury actively chooses not to want or care about anything because he feels that being an empty killer-for-hire is what he’s meant for. but mercury’s nihilism is a projection, a brittle emotional armor with obvious cracks (he cares about emerald, he resents cinder, he’s terrified of tyrian).

in a twisted way, tyrian is the idealized form of mercury’s projected self—a living weapon with no purpose other than to enact violence on salem’s behalf—and i think there is a degree of self-recognition lurking under mercury’s visceral discomfort with tyrian. now add to this duo the asturias twins: jax is so fiercely dedicated to his cause that he’s willing to die for it, and gillian loves her brother too much to let him die. the twins are defined by true, passionate, unrelenting commitment to what they want and what they believe is right.

so mercury is positioned between this extreme living embodiment of what he pretends to be, and two people who are exactly the opposite. he is also undoubtedly going to find out that emerald defected sooner or later, bringing his true feelings into conflict with his outward actions. i think it’s likelier than not that he and tyrian will be posing as supporters of the crown, which necessitates some degree of interaction with actual supporters—many of them driven by anger and fear of salem—so mercury is also going to be faced with the harm he’s helped enact in a way that will be difficult to look away from.

where do his sympathies fall in this situation? what does he want? does he know deep down what really matters to him? tyrian and the asturias twins represent the crossroads he’s approaching; at some point the narrative will force him to choose.

which is an interesting set-up because both halves of the crossroads are villainous, so the most intuitive path for a villain-to-hero arc for mercury is one that precipitates villain-to-hero arcs for the asturias twins too. i’ve seen a lot of speculation that mercury might get between emerald and tyrian, but mercury doesn’t pick fights he can’t win, as a point of pride. he does want to protect emerald, but getting himself killed won’t save her from tyrian and mercury isn’t stupid.

but if he and tyrian are masquerading as supporters of the crown, there is something mercury can do that will meaningfully keep emerald safe from tyrian:

tell jax and gillian the truth.

they want to protect vacuo from salem. mercury wants to protect emerald, who is in vacuo, from tyrian, who has infiltrated the crown on salem’s behalf. mercury can’t take tyrian down by himself, but the twins together pose a really credible threat—gil can outlast him, jax can overpower him. they are also generally safer than tyrian or salem, which makes it easier for mercury to take a risk on trusting them.

sure, they might retaliate against him by draining his aura or twisting his memory to ensure he’s loyal to them—but they will definitely take tyrian down. and if mercury comes to them and honestly says he’s been working for salem under extreme duress but he’s got someone he loves in vacuo and he’ll fight to the death on their side if they can help him kill tyrian, well, i’d put better odds on them taking him at his word than i would on mercury surviving if he got between tyrian and emerald on his own. and i bet mercury would run those numbers in his head.

and if he goes to the twins, and the twins hear him out and take down tyrian, then mercury kind of… ends up being a potential point of contact between the crown and shade academy, because emerald knows and cares about him and the twins 1. decided to trust him and 2. know salem benefits from vacuo’s internal conflict and might feel more inclined to set aside differences after being infiltrated by one of her lieutenants.

and. well. yknow. the mythological mercury is the messenger of the gods and all.

Now I’m so curious as to the Paths of the rwby characters omg. You said they’re gonna be mostly The Hunt, but that some are gonna change?

Yeah they’re all almost entirely The Hunt/the Path of their home nation with some exceptions.

For reference, Atlas follows Erudition, Mistral follows Harmony, Vale and Vacuo follow Hunt, White Fang follow Nihility, and the Grimm come from Propagation and Finality

Each character and their Path is what they are as of their most recent appearance in RWBY canon, whether that’s time of death, last scene, or as of the v9 epilogue. Some minor characters have not been included as I don’t believe they are necessarily Pathwalkers/forgot about them when this list was made. It’s safe to assume that any non-mentioned Huntsmen follow the Path of The Hunt

Additional note, the line in my post about there only being 4 Emanators in Remnant outside of Ozpin and Salem is still technically true as of the information that Ozpin knows. All other Emanators are mysteries to him and were not intentional. The wills of the Aeons is strange…

RWBY AC 1-10

How about Lumiere x Nero? And Oscar x Nero?

Makes sense, compels me!

I really did love the bond Lumiere and Secre shared. They had a tender connection that was gone too soon. I just adored that aside from all the research they did, Lumiere still had plenty of time to make her a pretty dress! While I personally may not get a romantic vibe from them, their circumstances can be read like a romantic tragedy. To be separated for centuries is just heartwrenching. So I understand why people ship them. I see Lumiere having a fondness for her like he would for Tetia. Maybe Secre's the little sister he wished he had since they had more in common while Tetia was occupied with Licht.

As for her relationship with Oscar, that definitely compels me! They're two nerds in love, and it's adorable! Oscar definitely has his similarities to Lumiere, which makes Nero feel comfortable around him. Poor Oscar is just so awkward since he's so inexperienced when it comes to wooing women. But Oscar is passionate about his work, and Nero is a devoted helper. They make a great team and would be good to each other. I can't get over the idea of Sally and Millie gossiping about them in the research lab together. It just feeds into my love of workplace romantic comedies.

[whackdreamer]

Black Clover OC: Oscar Albain

Name: Oscar Albain Gender: Male Age: 21 (post Elf-reincarnation arc) Birthday: July 31 (Leo) Height: 175 cm Weight: 68kg Magic attribute: Lightning Magic Occupation: Researcher at the Magic Tool Research Lab. (Defense division) Likes: Studying ancient technology. Crafting magic golems. Dislikes: Social gatherings. Fighting

Relationships:

Family Father: Gilbert Albain Mother: Melanie Albain Older half-sister: Claire Polaris

Love interest: Secre Swallowtail/Nero

Personality:

Oscar speaks politely and even includes honorifics when talking to commoners and peasants. He is courteous and possesses a gentle demeanor. He has a huge passion for crafting magic tools and is usually found buried in his research work. So much so that he rarely leaves his workshop and often sleeps there. His coworkers have to urge him to take a break and walk outside once in a while because he is too fixated with his work. Oscar is friendly but his fixation tends to overwhelm even the greatest magic scientists in the kingdom. He is aware that this trait causes him to have little to no close friends. To ease his loneliness, he has built, and named a golem and considers it to be his one and only true friend.

Being the only heir of House Albain, he tries to live up to its name as they are well known for their magic tool crafting.

The magic of House Albain is typically known for bearing potent lightning magic earning them the nickname ‘White Lightning Albain’. Despite bearing explosive magic power he hates using it in battle.

Trivia: He has a habit of naming his magic tools like people. Ex. “This is my newest work. Glenn Buster!”

[bestworstcase]

is there anything about rwby that you would have done differently as a writer? i.e. introducing certain ideas of characters earlier, complete wholesale changes, etc.

in terms of major narrative choices, adam attempts to assassinate sienna as in canon but her personal guard remains loyal, there’s a scuffle, and she’s able to escape wounded but alive, showing up at haven to pincer adam’s forces with the faction of the white fang that refuses to go along with his coup.

the albains are loyal to sienna but still weird and disliked – not for sinister foreshadowing but because sometimes people are just sort of weird and off-putting, and that’s a fun trait to give a couple of good guys who show the fuck up to defend an ally who’s hitherto been a bit distrustful and cool toward them when the violent splinter group tries to assassinate him; narratively the albains being like this while aligning themselves firmly with sienna also provides an opportunity to cast the belladonna’s alliance with and support of sienna into sharper focus and perhaps allows for blake to bounce off and talk to some guys in the “yes direct action and tactical violence, no whatever the fuck adam’s doing” camp to refine her understanding of the white fang and make it clearer how adam corrupted what sienna does and believes.

and the arc resolution is sienna reclaiming leadership of the white fang and preparing to clean house while ghira and ilia plan a second, separate but allied organization focused on advocacy with the overall point being that expecting one group to do and be everything is part of the problem.

i talk about this more here. the white fang arc really isn’t as bad as its frequently maligned but suffers from a lack of clarity in how it’s intended message is delivered; the point of sienna surviving and having genuine allies to represent her side in menagerie is to address that lack of clarity by articulating her philosophy and underscoring that the belladonnas support her and ally themselves with her because the objection isn’t “violence in bad” but rather “indiscriminate violence that materially harms the cause and violent infighting are bad.”

aside from that, i wouldn’t change anything significant presuming that i had to work under the same conditions as the actual writers (<- if they hadn’t lost those two episodes in v9, 9.10 wouldn’t feel so rushed and we’d have got that animatic as a full episode; if there hadn’t been budget issues in v5 mistral wouldn’t feel so empty; etc it’s very easy to fix problems like this in hypotheticals where you imagine you have infinite time and money, but in the real world if this were my story and i faced these sort of logistical challenges it would be to the detriment of the narrative in the same ways and i have no interest in pretending otherwise).

all that said

if i were the one writing this story and either i had more money or it was, like, a series of novels (<- which is what i’d be writing, realistically) – the religious layer of the story would be a lot more overt, not just in terms of the religious conflict with regard to the brothers but i would flesh out 1-2 other religions too. blake’s arc would feature wrestling with complicated feelings about god-of-animals-worship. ruby and yang would’ve been raised monotheistic light-worshippers; weiss would be a lapsed orthodox brother-cultist (in my head this is comparable to, say, the chasm between evangelical protestants and a lapsed catholic). oscar would be stolidly practicing some other religion that has nothing to do with the brothers, to ozma’s consternation, because that’s funny. salem would be still a polytheist but pointedly not worshipping Those Two, because that’s also funny.

<- this is not to “”fix“” anything i just think it’s important as a writer to be self-indulgent. and i like fantasy religions. bfrgscbk

RWBY Volume 5, Chapter 5 'Necessary Sacrifice' rapid fire thoughts (warning, spoilers)

Blake doesn't seem that...enthusiastic about recruiting Faunus

Sun once again is carefree and 'earnest', c'mon boy do you have any other aspects to your personality?

Hanging upside down is my favourite kind of Sun, though (is that racist or?)

Sad Blek is sad

Sun needs things explained to him again (is your head empty? Do you have thought processes or nah?)

Blake bringing hard truths; Menagerie holds Faunus that simply don't want or don't care about what's happening elsewhere. Secluded by the world was a bad thing but they're not going to make progress sitting out in spite.

Blake used to 'work'? with Adam...lmao

Sun, have you ever thought to yourself...NAH SUN DOESN'T THINK MUCH OF ANYTHING SORRY

Aw Blake talking fondly of team RWBY just makes me miss their dynamic more :(

Ruby is PURE confirmed

Weiss is DEFIANT confirmed

Yang is STRONG confirmed

Sun is ? but maybe EARNEST confirmed [kinda]

Adam is not JUSTICE, not PASSION, not HATRED, not RAGE, he is SPITE confirmed

Adam only wants justice for himself (we knew this already he fucking sucks)

Blake DOES care about Ilia still and wants better for her (called it)

I kinda think Blake's more concerned about facing Adam but yeah sure let's worry about Ilia being difficult

Blake did feel guilty and fearful, but since Sun didn't give up on her, she's convinced she can help Ilia, even though Ilia might not see it as help. Interesting, I think this might be the reason Sun was there all along. To be that catalyst for Blake to step up instead of stepping away. INTERESTING.

And cue another RUBY INSPIRES CUTE BOY OZPIN scene

Oscar has already descended into madness see ya lad

YOU'LL BE COMBAT READY IN NO TIME. I'm not crying, but you're crying?? Why you gotta do this to us! First it was Nora thanking the Schnee Dust Company, now it's Ruby saying Penny's catchphrase...UGH

Oscar needs to be cheered up (thanks Ozpin you're not helpful at all)

DON'T LASH OUT AT RUBY, SON, I'LL BREAK YOUR LEGS

Oh no she's talking about Pyrrha and Penny...everyone, get your kleenex!

Being kind doesn't save you from murderers NEWSFLASH

Some Ruby feelings exposé here, used as motivation...one day, maybe she will break rather than keep moving forward (pretty much expected)

Also SHOUT OUT TO OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR MONTY OUM, KEEP MOVING FORWARD Y'ALL

You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. Thanks, Christopher Robin! I mean, Ruby! Nek minnut Oscar is looking for a honey pot

Ozpin is the founder of the Ruby Rose Cheer Squad™

These two creepy sneaky foxy fox cunts again?? The one with a tail is creepiest

Ilia actually WENT ALONG WITH A HOSTILE TAKEOVER. GUUUURL

Change can be painful what is this bullshit that's just some excuse to murder people

Okay, so they actually are going to assassinate Ghira and Kali. MMMBOI DON'T YOU DO IT

Ilia don't you fuckin do it

ILIA. DON'T. BE. BRAINWASHED.

THIS IS NOT NECESSARY. PLEASE CEASE AND DESIST. ABORT. ABORT!!

Adam seems crazier than usual... is that possible?

SLAUGHTER? Thems fighting words, boi

A promise to keep? FUCK ME UP THIS IS DARK

Narrator: all is well.

All was not well.

[honey-bunches-of-nope13]

Volume 5, Episode 5

The Rosegarden is strong with this one! It had me squeeing! Now, I know a lot of people have a problem with that ship, and understandably so. Ozpin is still there, and it’s a bit creepy. But, I don’t think he’ll be there forever. Either his consciousness will merge completely with Oscars to the point where he’s almost not there at all except for his memories and a few mannerisms, or they will win eventually and Ozpin will be freed from his curse and will finally be unbound from the boy. Even if that wasn’t the case, you can’t condemn poor Oscar to a life of loneliness because of something like this. The body and main consciousness is Oscar, not Ozpin. Oscar is his own person, and Ruby clearly sees this from their interactions so far.

Now that rant’s over, gotta get my squee out, on to Illia. She’s getting harder to like. Like, damn, girl! You so callous! Scary to think this is what Blake could have been like if she hadn’t snapped out of it. Blake tried to make her more likable, but that was totally ruined by the next scene! She did seem very VERY conflicted about the plans against Blake’s family, so not all hope is lost though. Also, the Blacksun vibes are there, and I loved it. Again, I love Bumblebee and would not be at all disappointed if it happened instead, but  god do I love those two! Sun’s such a goof and it’s great! 

On a less happy note, Blake was right in the way she described Adam. The man’s a walking salt lick and I want him dead sooner rather than later! Even Fennec’s questioning whether they should really be following him. 

There’s no way Ghira is making it to the end of this volume, and I’m already sad!

Also, we got to see some hella cool Funus types this episode!

[armenianwriterman]

After hearing someone talk about the Hunger Games prequel movie a few weeks, I remembered the hunger games simulator and started fooling around with it, until I found one that lets you add as many characters as you want. So, out of boredom, I have decided to present:

THE RWBY HUNGER GAMES!!!!

I'll be posting the major events and the interesting minor ones onto here for whoever reads this' enjoyment.
