What is the best song on the Volume 9 soundtrack and why is it “Quiet.”

[theclumsyxeno]

I was listening to this song https://open.spotify.com/track/5uCnNztuNiG3892AhsA1i7?si=iA6-IfwQT9-7SEYV3S3SKg

While reading this and it added SOOO much to this, and about made me cry. A truly perfect fit.

"ꜱᴛᴀʏ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴍᴇ" ⨟ ᴀɴɢꜱᴛ ᴡ/ ᴛʜᴇ ᴋᴏᴍʙᴀᴛ ʙᴏʏꜱ

i know i was like just hornyposting and all buuuut i've had such a rough couple of days and everythings really building up. figure i'd sit down and write out my favorite "prompt". hurt/comfort... without the hurt, i guess. too hurt to write the hurt :P. essentially what the boys would do when your feeling down and ask to stay with em, of course. is this what im calling the boys now? yes. its MY fic and MY comfort, i get to choose the silly little name for my boyfriends.

cw: gn reader, angsty undertone, comfort, just fluff, bonus characters!, not proofread

⎯ Liu Kang

You do not even need to speak. Liu Kang can see it. You are hurt, near breaking. You trail behind him all day, head down. You actively seek his touch, small things, reaching for his hand, brushing your fingers against his bicep. You are afraid to say it, and yet, he knows.

That night, before he leaves your room to attend to his duties as Earthrealm's protector, you finally speak up. Those three simple words, so quiet, so soft. He does not hesitate to turn around. He is logical, he likes to think, but you pull him in. Within moments, he is in bed with you, his arms wrapped around you firmly. He presses his forehead against your cheek, and whispers,

"I will not leave you, my dear, I am here. Forevermore."

⎯ Bi-Han

Bi-Han knows you almost better than the back of his hand. However, he prefers to let you wallow in peace. He is afraid of pushing past your boundaries, and as such, he is far more distant. Yet, he worries. He worries with his whole heart. However, he cannot let it show. So he is as cold as ever, in front of the Lin Kuei. Strong, vigilant, unyielding.

Tonight, he does not let you go. He misses you so, and you have no need to tell him what you need. It is tender. He pulls you on top of him, holding you close by the waist. And yet, you still speak. And he listens. His gaze softens, tremendously. He looks as if he may be on the verge of tears. His voice steady, as he speaks, yet his face betrays his tone,

"There is no possibility of leaving you, no, not even in death."

⎯ Kuai Liang

Kuai does not know what ails you- but he must. He must know. You have done well to shy away from him, but he is hot on your trail. He knows that hollow look, devoid of emotion, too afraid to show any. Because if you show one, you show all. He does not smother you, no, but he does question you.

The questions stop at night. It is quiet. He is afraid of pushing you further. So Kuai Liang leaves you alone in the bed, with one last kiss on your forehead. Yet, he stands in the doorway. He waits. You speak. And he listens. All you say is one word. He retreats back in bed with you, pushing you closer to his neck. He runs his hands through your hair, calming you down. To still your beating heart. And he speaks with conviction,

"I am here, as long as you need, forever, if you so wish, my love."

⎯ Johnny Cage

Perhaps, Johnny is too much for you recently. And that's okay! He knows his limits. Yet, he finds himself seeking you out. He misses your warmth, your smile, you. He knows that he can be loud, that he can be a lot. And he's always given you space. Yet that look you hold, it is miserable. And he knows exactly what you feel. He follows you around, as if a lost dog, the entire day. He wants you to have space, but he wants you to say those words.

And you do, that night. Finally, those words escape your lips. Just what Johnny wanted to hear. He's got you wrapped up in the blankets, pulling you up into his chest. His hand rests on the back of your head, gently rubbing his thumb into your hair. He presses a kiss to your forehead, and whispers, gently, almost out of character,

"It's alright, sweetheart, I'm not leaving, not tonight, not tomorrow, not anytime."

⎯ Kenshi Takahashi

You cannot hide that sinking pain within your heart, Kenshi can hear the melancholy dripping within your words. He can hear it in your breath, your actions. How your footsteps drag, how slow you walk. He can see it, too, do not be fooled. You stay close, unnecessarily close, you look up at him with such heavy eyes, you stay quiet. He knows. He is waiting for you to act on it, to act on the voice he hears at the very edge of his mind. He is a telepath, you must remember.

And so, when you speak your mind finally, he is all too eager to make sure you know he won't leave. He pulls you up onto his chest, his heartbeat even, soft, and regular. The moment is tender, and he lets your words hang in the air. Silence covers you two like a blanket, comforting. And finally, as he runs his hand down your sides, squeezing your waist gently, he speaks,

"Do not be afraid to tell me what you want, my heart. I will stay close, I will stay."

⎯ Kung Lao

Kung Lao does not need words to stay by you. Night and day. He is glued to your side, trying to cheer you up with his charm. He does not give you enough room to sulk. He's dragging you along with him, even if it's something as simple as watching him train. To keep you at ease, to put a smile on your face. He is making sure everything he does has that effect.

Yet, you still ask him to stay when night comes. He does not deny it, and he pushes himself closer. As if you were not in his arms already. But he makes sure you know he heard you, he squeezes you, and lets out a soft sigh. There is nothing that will take him away from you, and you must know,

"I won't. Nope, not even tomorrow. I'm here as long as you want me here."

⎯ Raiden

You cannot keep Raiden away from you. The minute your expression is somber, he is following close behind you. He does not ask, or interrogate you. But he follows. He is on the lookout for any sort of thing that could have stolen his light from him. What has gotten to you, what dares rip the spark of his life from you? He does not know how to ask you, he is afraid that perhaps it is him.

But it is not. Your hand pulls him back to you by his wrist as you speak. And he obliges. He does not know what has made you feel this way, but he does know, that maybe even this one night will be enough to bring your smile back. He will stay here, as long as you need, as long as he needs. And he makes it known,

"Oh, my light, nothing can keep me away from you."

⎯ Zeffeero

Zeffeero is on you the minute your face so much as drops. Perhaps he is a stubborn lover, too prideful to admit that he cares deeply for you. But he cannot handle loosing your presence, his sunshine. He wants your attention, but does not say so outright. He will do that little thing with the water manipulation and the shapes to amuse you... without you asking. And when that does not bring the smile back to your face, he does not know what else to do.

His heart near stops when you tell him to stay that night. He feels so stupid to have skipped over that part. But he accepts. He tries to show restraint, however he is by you within a matter of seconds. He places a kiss on your jaw, before hiding his face in the crook of your neck. His arms wrap around you, keeping you close. Just as he wanted to the entire day, and he finally speaks,

"Do not scare me so, my dear. I want to keep you safe, and I'll stay until you no longer want me by your side."

⎯ Tomas Vrbada

Your distance is noticeable. However, Tomas does not act upon it. He believes that you need the space you have put between you and him and everyone else. So he does not question it. However, there is a void where you once were. His world fills with the same emptiness and sorrow you felt at your absence. He cannot help but seek you out in the final hours of the dawn. He is afraid, once more. He does not want to pressure you, so he turns his back to you.

You surprise him with your words, he near spins on his heels, a wide and beautiful grin gracing his face. He makes no effort to hide this. His happiness, his light has asked him to stay, and he would be a fool to deny them such a request. He practically throws himself back onto the bed, and wraps his big arms around you. He presses his forehead against yours, and holds your gaze. He speaks, quietly, softly, and you can even hear his smile in his voice,

"I am here for you, Drahoušek. I always will be. Do not be afraid to come to me."

⎯ Baraka

Oh, how Baraka feared this day would come. You have turned your back to him, the air around you rife with despair. He is not afraid that you suddenly dislike him. He is afraid of loosing your positivity. One of the very few things he has held onto because of his affliction. You make him forget all that is bad within this world, within him. And now, there is an absence. He does not know what to do.

But that night, you guide him. Through his own sulking, your words pull him away. Yes. He will gladly stay. If that is what you want. If that is what it takes. He keeps his distance, still. He will always be afraid of his infection spreading. But he sleeps in the same room. And just before you drift off into sleep, you hear him,

"I cannot lose you. Please, tell me when, and I will be there."

⎯ Geras

Geras has reason to believe the reason you have pulled away from him is because of his absence. Because of him. Human emotions are a strange thing, they are intricate, even more so than the dozens of timelines he has watched over. Oh so suddenly, you are turned away from him, too caught up within your own thoughts to voice what has been troubling you. Perhaps it is the fact that he does not have nearly enough time for you. That is the answer he settles on.

Before he can leave you that night, your pleas make him stop. They make him understand, even for a second. He was so sure you were asleep. And yet, you are awake, asking him to stay. He is unsure what to do. But, he must give his love what they want. What they deserve. So, he leans in, and places a gentle kiss on your cheek. His words follow soon after,

"I will always be here, my duty is important, but so are you. Know this, I am always watching over you."

⎯ Syzoth

You've ran off. And Syztoh does not know what to do with himself. He paces, he fidgets, he waits. He must see you again. But you were so hurt beforehand, and he does not know why. You have withdrawn into yourself, without a word. And Syzoth does not know how to comfort you. He knows you are feeling down, horrible even. Yet, he feels as if he has ran you off. His insecurities well up within his mind as he waits. And waits.

And the time comes where you ask him, you reach for him. Your voice quivers. Oh my, how could he have let this happen. He pulls you in, almost bringing you down to the ground. He wraps himself around you, burying his face into the crook of your neck. His nerves calm, in that moment. Muffled, he speaks, his words true and clear, if not a little shaky,

"I waited, my love, and I will stay. I will always be here. Every moment, every moment you need me."

⎯ Havik

Havik is apprehensive. He does not quite understand what to do in this situation. With you, his lover, in front of him, a mess, voice hoarse, your emotions addle your mind. He looks at you dumbfounded. He reaches for you, but his hand does not meet your shoulder. Now, you feel as if you are miles away from him. Space. That is what he understands, now.

But, the space he has given you is broken that night. You find him in bed, intertwining his fingers with yours. His scarred flesh does not scare you, as much would believe. His eyes are warm, peaceful for once. The words are on the tip of your tongue, yet you do not need to speak. Havik answers, regardless,

"Finally. Do not run from me like that again, I do not mean to leave you alone."

⎯ Shao Kahn

To return home, where you are not waiting for Shao in the kitchen, it is a nightmare. The worst is the first thing that runs through his mind. You are lost, perhaps. Taken. But he finds you, safe and well. Back to him, on the edge of the bed. He does not speak, but he lets his presence be known. He lays down on the bed, facing you, and simply watches.

Until it is time for you to speak, you look at him with such sad eyes. He is there. You do not have to ask, for you know the answer. But you ask, anyways. Shao simply reaches a hand out to you, and pulls you back in bed gently. Tonight, he can. Maybe not tomorrow morning, but tonight, he can. And he will,

"I will always stay by your side. I am here to keep you safe, do not forget it."

⎯ Shang Tsung

Shang Tsung pampers you, right out of the gate. He hates to see you like this, so sullen, so quiet. It is his goal to pull you out of this feeling. Even if it hurts his wallet. And yet, it seems his plan falls short. He is disheartened, to say the least. Perhaps he might sulk, as well. But he doesn't, or he tries not to, anyways. He simply follows you around, now. Trying to lift your spirits.

And that only comes when night falls, nestled underneath the covers. Shang Tsung is still close. Extremely close. Yet, you can't help but ask, regardless. And he listens. He chuckles softly, and pulls you in for a quick peck on the lips. For a moment, he stares into your eyes, rolling your words over in his mind. His tone is sly, but his words are, for once, kind,

"There you are, my darling. Of course I'll stay. Who would I be if I didn't? I'll stay forever, if I must."

⎯ Reiko

Reiko wants to be soft with you, and yet, he can't find a way through to you in this moment. He does not understand why you've withdrawn from him. Why you are so somber. He decides that it is space you need, not him. So, he gives you exactly what he believes. Yet, he still keeps an eye on you. He wants to make sure you are safe, regardless. Even as you sulk.

You find him once more at the end of the day, laying in bed. The idea of him, of Reiko, relaxing, seems so odd. Yet, he is lounging. He is waiting. So you speak, and all he can do is look at you. He gestures towards the bed, and you do so. Laying down, he holds you close. Properly. His arms wrapped around the small of your back, your forehead against his chin. And he speaks, finally,

"If I am to say no, then I would rather be decapitated by General Shao himself. Do not ever hesitate to ask, you know I will."

⎯ Erron Black

Outlawin' and Gunslingin' is a hard trade. What's even harder is making sure you are happy. And now, you are pulling yourself away from Erron. This mood you're in... he's going to get you to snap out of it, dammit. And he tries. He tries real damn hard. He flaunts off his skills, just how quick and precise he can fan the hammer, maybe take down some poor bird from the sky. Yet, you still look at him, devoid of emotion.

Erron has all but given up until you find him in the bed that night. Somehow, you look more of a mess then before. And he just can't forgive himself for it. Yet, you still ask. He's dumbfounded, really. He doesn't know what to say. But, his body knows what to do. Absentmindedly, he pulls you into the bed by your hand. He keeps you close, yet still leaves distance between your bodies. His hand finds your cheek and caresses it with his thumb. Finally, he's found his words, and so he speaks, for you,

"Ya ain't gotta worry about me leavin', pumpkin. I'll stay riiiiiiight here, long as ya need."

⎯ Takeda Takahashi

You're quiet. You're so damn quiet and it's almost irritating for Takeda. He can't get to you, he can't break through this heavy, melancholy air around you. He's following you around, regardless. He's going to find out why you're acting like this, and if it's because of someone, he won't mind sweating a little. But it isn't. It isn't cause of anyone, it isn't cause of him. It's cause of you. And now, he truly doesn't know what to do. So he backs off.

Until you find him once more, seeking his attention. His touch. His comfort. Takeda doesn't deny this, as you slink into bed, behind him. You tap him on the shoulder gently, and he turns his head back to you. Before he can speak, you ask. The lightbulb goes off in Takeda's head, and suddenly, he feels horrible. You didn't need him following you around like a bodyguard all day, nor did you need the bombardment of questions. You simply needed him. So, he responds,

"Don't scare me like that, dammit. Of course I'll stay, but just... yeah, yeah. I'll stay."

Comprehensive list of my current favorite rwby songs (keep in mind i’ve only seen half of volume 8 so im trying not to listen to some of those songs unless i Know I’ve heard them or its like a remix of a song on an earlier ost)

Armed and Ready. Definitely #1. Absolute BANGER. Literally cannot stop listening to it

Bmblb

Not Fall In Love With You

Boop

The Truth. Chilling, heartbreaking, I wish it was longer than like 50 seconds

Touch the Sky

Red Like Roses

Brand New Day

Nevermore

This Life is Mine, but specifically once it goes full rock version. I wish we got some of that in the show cause Jacques would have thrown a fit if Weiss suddenly put on like a rock show at his fancy gala and it would have been hilarious

This is not including the intro songs bc i love all of them, and I’m certain I’ve forgotten some but those are my favs off the top of my head

Anyway I need to watch more rwby soon because This is what I’m doing in the meantime while I’m stuck mid-volume 8 I’m just obsessing and overanalyzing everything and losing my mind

[gachagon]

Something I noticed with a lot of the ultra critical RWBY hater Youtubers who make like hours long essays about why a show they don't even like is bad and why it's never been good and was only decent for the first few volumes, is that they almost never like the soundtrack or listen to the music that's playing in the show. A lot of the questions and bad takes they have about the characters come from like a complete misunderstanding of the characters deeper thoughts, and because they already don't like the show and completely misread the actual writing, they also just ignore the other form of writing in the show that's just as important imo: The Music.

Anyone who thinks that the soundtracks of tv shows play no narrative role outside of musicals is just wrong btw, sure music may just be there most of the time to fill a void, but a lot of music in tv shows and movies is there to tell just as much of a story as the words

and it's not like RWBY has hard to understand songs, Casey Lee Williams and Jeff Williams are screaming at the top of their lungs most of the time and it's mostly worded really simply like "I'm gonna kick your ass" or "I'm sad now" (this is not to rag on the lyricism i love the rwby OST just pointing out how in some of the songs the lyrics are pretty in your face and obvious)

But if you listen to the entire soundtrack you get such a better understanding of the characters inner thoughts that you may have missed when watching the show. And it's even cool that the show calls back on some of the older songs with the Lyrics like how in Volume 8 Ruby says that Salem probably turned Summer Rose into a grimm since the grimm that attacked them had silver eyes, and in Red Like Roses II one of the lyrics is literally

"I made a sacrifice but forced a bigger sacrifice on you / I know you've lived a nightmare/ I caused us so much pain/ But baby, please don't do what I did / I don't want....you to waste your life in vain"

Just from this song you learn so much about a character you've never even met before and it tells you a lot about Summer and what her potential sacrifice was or what happened to her, and even her regrets when she did it. I really think a lot of the ppl who super duper hate RWBY don't appreciate the music enough or they just don't listen to it and just hear "generic rock music".

TEKKEN 8 OST | Arena 1st | The Decisive Blow

Tekken 8 DLC Trailer — Sun Wukong (RWBY)

The trailer begins with Sun Wukong throwing a banana on the floor after eating it and a criminal slipped on it trying to run away.

Sun: Time to wipe off scum off the streets!

Announcer: Get ready for the next battle!

Sun then spins his gunchucks and puts them back together into a staff.

Announcer: Tekken 8! New Challenger!

Sun: Wanna bet?

Announcer: Sun Wukoooonng!

Sun faces off against Claudio performing bojutsu with his Ruyi Bang Jingu Bang. Then performs his agile fighting style. Using his tail to trip him and then slam him with his elbows.

Then Sun makes a stand off against Marshall Law.

Marshall: You remind me of my son. He's got fighting spirit like you.

Sun: Dude, I have a world to save when I get back home.

Then Sun splits his staff into his gunchucks. While Marshall counters with his own nunchucks.

Then he encounters King. Sun understands what King is saying.

King: (You have a wounded soul, yet your ferocity still rises with spirit.)

Sun: I have my reasons to keep fighting.

While performing his combat, Sun uses his final attack, Via Sun. Where golden clones of him aided him in his match.

The trailer ends with Sun doing a victory break dance. Finishing with a wink.

Sun: Never underestimate the Junior Detective.

Character Mixes 4/?: Caulifla and Kale

SIDE A: CAULIFLA Punkish tomboy, tough Saiyan blood pumps in her veins... but she's still got a sweet spot for her girl~

You're Gonna Go Far, Kid - The Offspring Ain't It Fun - Paramore Take a Hint - Victoria Justice & Elizabeth Gillies (Victorious soundtrack) Girls - MARINA Jenny (I Wanna Ruin Our Friendship) - Studio Killers I Wanna Be Your Girlfriend - girl in red It Means Everything - Pedro Silva (OMORI OST)

(A/N: To get some of the more punkish tracks for her I actually had to tread out of my usual vibe for jams a little bit to get You're Gonna Go Far, Kid and Jenny. Could definitely use the former for a fight scene. Also considered Born2Run by Penelope Scott but I felt some of the lyrics were a bit too real-world-events for a fictional character.)

SIDE B: KALE Soft, shy, working on her self-esteem, pining for the one who sees her. She's got a tough side, she just needs the confidence to let her feelings loose.

Pink in the Night - Mitski Boys Will Be Bugs - Cavetown Cloud 9 - Beach Bunny Strawberry Blond - Mitski Doctor - Jack Stauber Stay Soft - Mitski Brutal - Olivia Rodrigo

(A/N: Kale was actually a bit tricky to do at times since some of the sweet stuff could apply to the Caulikale ship as a whole. I did manage to find some Kale-sided sweets for this side. Brutal is definitely a bit more intense than the rest of her mix- but that's her on the edge track, when her temper finally snaps.)

TAPE TWO: CAULIKALE/KALE-IFLA A pair that's tough to separate. Another side of them comes to light with this crush; Caulifla sweetens and Kale perks up. Honestly, a lot of this is just pure lesbian Chex Mix.

Still Into You - Paramore Be Strong and Hit Stuff - Casey Lee Williams (RWBY Volume 8 soundtrack) We Fell In Love In October - girl in red Homecoming - girl in red Magnet (Kasane Teto & Genbu Cover) - ELGD (original by Minato) Girls - girl in red Space Girl - Frances Forever

(A/N: I really love Be Strong and Hit Stuff for their tournament getting stronger together vibes. It was actual tricky to find other stuff that hit that mark, so I treated this more as what they'd vibe to- The Lesbian Chex Mix if you will (note: that phrase randomly came to me one night when I was planning this character mix and it's been on mind ever since). Also, when putting these together, I always act so hesitant with adding some of these tracks like I have to ration them out sparingly and I can only use them for one character's aesthetic. But that's not a rule that exists- heck, there are overlap tracks between Kale & Cabba and Frieza & Hit. Anyway, I've also found that Space Girl works really well for Kuriza x Bulla/Kurla. Just noting this.)

[mathcat7]

already asked 2 to tsunny but considering you're the other online friend i've talked about music to lately i'll ask 1/2/3

2 and 3 go hand in hand because uh... I did not listen to any albums in full this year outside of one, lmao. So that being said, The Fox and the Bird by OK Goodnight wins by default. It's neat seeing the way this band has progressed since my first time listening to them when they featured in RWBY's Vol. 8 OST.

Now as for 1 (and again prefacing that I don't listen to many new things) I'm sorry to mention RWBY a second time but Guide My Way (aka RLR part 3) is I think the a really great culmination of the series' soundtracks up to this point, almost a capstone to Casey Williams taking the mantle of her father's work in the show. Also narrativley speaking the song is p neat and I think is testament to both the show and its titular character's wish to surpass what they were while also losing sight, which I still find neat in spite of the many problems. Also sonically it feels really good and nice in my brain (though I kinda wish the mixing was just as tad more optimized).

[john-barkston]

wow excuse me? no one told me Jeff Williams retired from rwby and Vol9 is Casey and her band mate!

I LOVED the sound of 1 - 8 but holy shit? 9's OST takes the character songs into a sophisticated realm beyond anything RT could possibly spit out to match. I am like.....beyond flabbergasted at how Vol9 was SO BAD i didn't even know these songs happened in the background. It's so tonally different that it fits the "purgatory" theme perfectly BUT THEY DIDN"T EVEN PLAN THAT SO LMAO can't give them credit for it.

I didn't care for a Vol 10 but now I NEED it to happen so I can get more music wtf The music and sound team (for the ost , foley, and voice work) really do carry this stupid show LOL

[hinochi-darenimo]

This is a pastebin made by the dedicated RWBY thread on 4chan's /trash/ board. It has links to a full RT series archive, downloads of not only the main series but also Chibi, Ice Queendom, the Justice League movies, all the manga, comics, books, games, VNs, and even the OST from volumes 1-8. Enjoy.

The RoosterTeeth site will be deleted May 15th 😔 do yourselves a favor and start archiving EVERYTHING you can now. RageQuit, RvB, X-Ray & Vav, the Minecraft Let's Plays, RWBY, etc. RT is warning us as nicely as they can that there's a p good chance we won't be able to access ANYTHING by next year, including the YouTube channel. Download!

~ Fear

[xlbingo10]

i was just listening to “Friend” and heard the lyrics “protectors of each other’s what we’ll be”, possibly echoing yang and blake’s “we’re protecting each other”

i completely believe that ruby and penny loved each other, my fucking heart-

[abysskeeper]

Ok, not that I would expect anything less, but ‘Be Strong and Hit Stuff’ is pretty cleverly crafted?

Lyrically, it obviously showcases Nora’s arc with volume 8, but the beginning with that synth and bass harkens back to ‘Let’s Get Real’ from volume 7 and the speed with which Casey sings is a callback to the bridge of ‘Boop.’ But both of those songs, while Nora’s, are Nora’s songs about Ren, and both of those things sort of fall away as the song progresses. The guitars and drums (and backing piano) really start coming forward and driving the song, and Casey’s tempo mellows out eventually with the rest of the backing music (most notably in the bridge). It’s just pretty cool to hear those callbacks and then watch them transform into a song that is more singularly about Nora.

Though, this is most obvious with the guitar solo starting with the chorus of ‘Boop’ and transitioning into its own thing. A beautiful musical reflection that her love and partnership with Ren is a part of her, but there’s so much more to her than that.

I don’t know, I just think this song in particular is neat, and is a nice progression from the first two songs that fits perfectly with what we’ve seen Nora go through on screen.

Tweet/TwitLonger from Casey about the V8 Soundtrack:

[id: screenshot of a TwitLonger post from Casey that reads:

“Regarding the RWBY Volume 8 Soundtrack

Hey guys, the following is an important update regarding the RWBY Volume 8 Soundtrack from my dad Jeff Williams. We appreciate you love and patience as we continue to work on the soundtrack as well as focus on our family. Thank you and we love you so dearly ❤

‘It’s June, almost July, and you’re wondering when the RWBY Volume 8 Soundtrack will be released. Same here. I know you’re looking forward to new music, and I can never tell you enough how grateful I am for your interest, your excitement, your enthusiasm for the release of a new RWBY soundtrack. I’m looking forward to that too.

But, for now, I’ve had to put this on the back burner. A member of our immediate family has a very serious medical situation, and that is my focus for now.

Please don’t believe lies that people will fabricate and spread regarding this. I’m fine. Casey is fine, we’re not having some secret fight with Rooster Teeth. Everything you need to know, I just stated. I’ve put RWBY music ahead of everything else for almost 10 years now, and I’m very glad I did. But right now, I have to put my family first. I will never look back and think I did the wrong thing with regard to this.

I’m working on the music. I have not and will not abandon it. But I’m not giving it any timeline, no predictions, no guesses. The truth about a release date will come from Casey and RT, and nowhere else.

My family, Casey and I deeply appreciate the kind words and positive energy that many of you will send in our direction. We thank you, in advance, from the bottom of our hearts, for that kindness.

The next time you hear from me it will be in the form of kick-ass music.

Okay I'm sure everybody's already noticed this but I'm still on the V8 soundtrack brainrot so I can't stop thinking about it till I write it down

For Every Life references every other opening theme of every other volume

Time To Say Goodbye & Let's Just Live

We said goodbye

To all the things we loved

Gave up our lives

Just to find that it was not enough

When it Falls

Sometimes it's worth it all

To risk the fall

And fight for every life

Rising & Trust Love

We tried to rise

Defeat the hate through love

Keep hope alive

Trust our hearts

And somehow soar above

Triumph

Our plans of triumph torn apart

An endless sea of broken hearts

Strength's not victory

This Will be the Day

Will this be the day

That we always feared?
