#so qrow decides to leave him alone

Okay okay okay consider
Ozpin getting dragged out of Beacon for once bc glynda got sick and tired of him being cooped up in his tower
Ozpin and qrow going on a few short Huntsman missions together, one of them involving an unknown Grimm terrorizing a village
Ozpin n qrow going off to fight the Grimm- however the Grimm is... weirdly intelligent and separates them
Ozpin finding out the Grimm is more or less telepathic and reflects all of your worst fears, insecurities, memories, etc and is thus naturally pretty intelligent- but this one is very old, and is practically sentient at this point
Ozpin being tormented by this Grimm, having everyone he knows or knew used against him, including past lives, having himself taunt him, calling him a liar, a coward, someone who uses others for his own benefit, etc
Ozpin being tormented because this Grimm KNOWS his worst thoughts, whether fleeting or part of trauma. The Grimm knowing how many times he's killed himself, how much he has bottled up (rage, self hate, etc), what Oz has done and has wanted to do even if it was just a brief thought. The Grimm ripping into him, using every word of Ozpins against him
The Grimm literally using Ozpins own signature fighting style to fight Ozpin, beating him down with the fake version of Long Memory (like v9 ch8 but with Oz)
Ozpin being unable to fight back, not because the Grimm is too powerful (though it is strong), but because Ozpin agrees with the Grimm, that he's an awful person and deserves pain
Qrow coming in at the last second before the Grimm kills Ozpin, killing the Grimm and saving Oz
Ozpin repressing everything until after he gets medical treatment, after he gets home, when he's alone, and finally breaking down, completely alone, isolating himself
#felix (host)#rwby#ozpin#qrow branwen#ozpin but he gets the ruby rose treatment tbh#except its worse bc he doesnt have the option of suicide or willingly changing#at least not without bringing some poor kid into his war#you KNOW hed bottle everything up until hes alone#and qrow knows oz isnt okay but doesnt want to push it bc he gets it#qrow didnt see most of it but he did hear a bit so he Does know that ozpin literally fucking#hates himself#and he Gets It#so qrow decides to leave him alone#glynda trying but ultimately leaving him alone too bc she figures he might need it#but nope#ozpin just#isolates himself#constantly#i mean theres a reason why he built a tower resembling salems old tower that she was locked in#shut up i want angst#and honestly this idea is inspired by LMK season 4 lol#rwby rambles

im not sure if this is an okay request but family headcanons with rwby? like what kind of mother they are and how they treat their children and partner :)
Of course this is okay, it's really cute! I know I get a lot of NSFW requests, but wholesome ones are always welcome and highly appreciated!
----------
Team RWBY as Moms
Ruby Rose
Ruby is so sweet as a mom, she absolutely adores her family. No matter how many kids you have or their gender, she is gonna accept them with open arms
Being one of the top Huntresses means she is often out of the house in the mornings. But she always makes sure to come back right on time and call her familly if otherwise
Loves showing off Cresent Rose to the kids, and when they get old enough she lets them hold and try it out. If they want to be hunters/huntresses she is the first person to help them figure out a weapon
Does races with her kids, but always cheats and uses her semblance
Is decent at cooking, but really specializes in baking. Her cookies are to DIE for, your kids always try to sneak them at night (secretly you do too, don't tell Ruby)
Auntie Yang and her partner are always coming over, it's great! Everyone gets to catch up and the kids get to play, it's always a great time
Ruby always talks about how awesome Grandpa Qrow is, so clearly your kids look up to him. You often have to debunk a lot of the outlandish statements but it's cute nonetheless. Whenever he comes by it's always a big deal
Grandpa Tai tries so hard to be cool, it's often a joke in your household. He once tried to teach the kids to skateboard and fell flat on his face, giving himself a nosebleed
It's so sweet though! The kids always look forward to seeing him for a good laugh (plus he gives great hugs)
Ruby loves to barrage you guys with kisses
Weiss Schnee
Weiss never had a good childhood, fault being on both her parents. When she and her partner decided to have children, she swore to never make the same mistakes her parents did. She refuses to continue the cycle of abuse
Winter is always welcome to your house and always makes it to family events. She's still a bit cold but actually smiles when around you guys. Willow stays away a bit since she's still dealing with stuff, but makes an effort to occasionally visit. Jacques banned from even seeing any of you, and if he ever tries Weiss will threaten him with a restraining order
She always makes sure to go to all her kids events, no matter how disinterested she may be in the type of event. The excited look on their faces make it all worth it. Oh, and she's totally the mom to wave at her kids while they perform on stage
Can sometimes be strict when it comes to rules she has instated. No staying up too late, no staying out past curfew, stuff like that. She wants her kids safe!
Anytime she snaps at her kids or partner in frustration she immedietely stops and apologizes
Her dad is quite adamant about your kids having the Schnee Glyth semblance, but Weiss isn't worried about it. No matter what they have she isn't gonna love them any less
Has the BEST Birthday parties on the block, every kid wants to come! Tables lined with delicious food, tons of bounce houses, fun games, all the digs! Weiss also loves to use her summons to entertain the kids (They especially love the giant knight)
When the kids are at sleepovers and leave you two alone, you guys like to have mini date nights where you sip wine and talk. Weiss loves hearing about your day
Once the kids are put to bed she basically collapses on the couch with you and just lays there for a while in your arms
Blake Belladonna
Probably the most motherly of all of them. She had a great relationship with her parents and keeps a lot of her family traditions
Grandpa Ghira and Grandma Kali are very present. Ever since their grandkids were babies they were always very involved. Kali was most obvious about it, and likes to spoil her grandkids whenever possible. Ghira tries to be more aloof and calm about it, but you and Blake once caught him conked out on the couch with your sleeping kids in his arms
Very gentle with her kids and soft spoken. But when she gets angry you can hear the sharpness in her voice (that instantly shuts her family up)
If your kids runs away from you guys in public, Blake uses her weapon to yoink them and reel them back in
Uses her clones when they play games, she always wins at tag
Ever since they were babies, Blake likes to read books to her kids at bedtime. She reads a mixture of children's books and classic literature. It doesn't really matter what she reads, the soft sound of voice is the perfect lullaby
Teaches her children about Faunus issues and history very early on in life. It's important for them to know their history and culture
Always is ready with her phone to take photos and videos. She wants to capture all key moments your family experiences! Once a year she likes to have the family sit down and go through the collection
Sun likes to come by randomly and surprise you guys. Sometimes you'll be watching TV and hear a knock at your window. Blake reprimands him lightly, but it always ends up being a good time
Yang Xiao Long
Yang is the Cool Mom™️
She lets her kids dye their hair, get piercings, and tattoos. Of course the tattoos only when they get to an appropriate age, but it's not discouraged
Whenever the kids want piggyback rides she is happy to provide. If you have more than one kid she tries to carry them all at once
All the kids in the area adore her and loves to call her Auntie Yang
Definitely adores rough housing and play wrestling. She loves to teach simple moves and have contests (whenever she lets them win she gets really dramatic)
If they want to become hunters/huntresses, Yang is HAPPY to spar and train them! And if you want to join it makes a great family bonding activity
Does her kids' hair every day. Even if it's just a quick brush she loves to make sure they look their best
You own a grill that she loves to use. She likes to barbecue on weekends! Most of the time is fine it's just uh... she likes thing on the burnt side. Often you'll have to specifically tell her to not overcook everyone's meal
Loves to flirt and kiss you in front of the kids. Their cries of anguish and cringe is like music to her ears
Auntie Ruby and her partner are frequent guests in your house, they visit all the time. Whether it's to go to dinner or mini golf or just chill inside. It's also great for you all to catch up and the kids to hang out
Yang is the Cool Mom, Ruby is the Cool Aunt, and Qrow is the Cool Grandpa! Everytime Qrow comes to visit your kids practically tackle him. He always tells the best stories and sneaks your kids snacks and money
Tai tries to be the Cool Grandpa but kinda fails. He's sprained his ankle many a times trying to impress. Although they laugh, your kids absolutely adore when he comes around
There is no mention of Raven in the house. Yang refuses to bring that drama into her family life, she hasn't even approached her in general. But Yang doesn't care, she has everything she needs

ok wait. ok.
some roses will never bloom some dreams will rot on the vine some lives will end much too soon some evil will never ever die […] sometimes it’s worth it all to risk the fall and fight for every life
vs.
’tis the last rose of summer left blooming alone […] i’ll not leave thee, thou lone one to pine on the stem since the lovely are sleeping go, sleep thou with them thus kindly i scatter thy leaves o’er the bed where thy mates of the garden lie scentless and dead.
...hm. anyways.
"the lies come out of you so easily. like-minded souls, indeed."
summer rose telling lies! first time for everything—but the first first first inkling we get of summer's character is "now i'm nothing but a liar and you're thrown into the fray."
the way yang tells the story in 2.6 draws a direct line between summer disappearing and the fact of raven's existence being revealed to her; tai and summer withheld this information.
in 7.4 ruby asks qrow if summer's last mission was "another oz secret" and qrow answers "there were a lot of those back in the day" but that no, "this one was a summer secret."
9.10 we see summer put on a mask for tai and then a different mask for raven. "you're... just going to leave them?" raven asks, and summer deflects like a pro: "you're one to talk!" and "if i get this right, there's nothing to worry about. trust me."
"saw you in a dream/are you who you seem?"
"you were born to hypnotize them all."
she lied, ruby says.
summer rose is the reason raven has Trust Issues.
listen.
ozma lied. salem trusted him. he lied to her for years let her support his ambitions in the only way she knew how for years before he told the truth. "this isn't what he asked of me." "ozma told salem everything: the true reason the god of light had brought him back, the relics that lay scattered around the world, and the day of judgement he had been told to prepare for."
"if i get this right, there's nothing to worry about. trust me." "let's get it over with, i guess."
the god of light's mandate, the divine relics, the day of judgment he had been told to prepare for. don't you see? none of that matters anymore.
summer left her kids behind, but the spring maiden, a child whom raven loved enough to have a kindred link, died that night.
raven blames herself for that girl's death. salem blames herself for the deaths of her daughters.
"leave." <- there is a reason these scenes are paralleled. also
"and so we must... press on." / "and now i have to live with that forever." she blames herself.
anyway--the point is--
"if humanity were ever to stand a chance at being united, one thing was clear..." "he had to destroy salem."
"how can i destroy salem?" "you can't! :)"
"we don't have to kill you to stop you; and we will stop you." "your mother said those words to me. she was wrong, too."
listen. listen to me.
what happens if ozma chooses to stay with salem?
what if—after he tells her everything, after he pours out all the things he's kept festering inside of himself for years because the god of light told him salem lives, but the woman you hold dear in your memories is gone and where you seek comfort, you will only find pain—after he tells her about the relics, about the mandate, about the blade hanging over remnant's neck—what if, when she says none of that matters, he answers you're right, and takes her hand?
what happens if salem chooses to stay with him?
what if, when he tells her that the world is doomed and that he alone is meant to save it because the god of light anointed him for the task, she says very well. let's get this over with, i guess. what if it's salem who balks in the end?
summer rose is both of these questions. she is the ozma who convinced salem to embrace the mandate and she is also the ozma who rose out of the smoldering ruin of the world she couldn't save and decided to take the hand salem held out to her.
(tai never leaves his isolated home in the woods. raven retreats into the wilderness to lead her bandits. ruby rose believes that the world is worth fighting for. summer left him—summer stabbed her in the back—summer lied.)

Has it ever been mentioned if Tai and Summer we actually romantically involved? Maybe it's just me but the scene where they talk didnt feel like a married couples and more like really good friends. It would be interesting if Tai isnt actually ruby's father and him and summer decided to just co-parent ruby and yang to give them a normal family life. I just feel icky that tai ran to summer as soon as raven left.
Obviously it's entirely personal what does or does not feel "icky" to you, though it if helps, I frequently remind myself that RWBY has nonexistent timelines. Like, by the writers own admission none of this has been thought out. So if you get into the nitty-gritty and start asking questions like, "How long was Raven gone before Tai became romantically involved with Summer?" yeah, you might run into some timing snags that impact our overall view of the relationships. However, that's not because the writers wanted to engage with that kind of complicated dynamic, but simply because they throw out plot-points and ages without ever thinking through with how those two things intersect. I feel similarly regarding the "Yang raised Ruby" fanon (which is fanon and I find it frustrating that much of Volume 9's sisterly interactions, like Yang standing in front of Blake, have been squeezed through this largely unsupported lens of, "Well, Yang is basically Ruby's second mom so that's why this moment is wholesome and not a super weird animation choice) which doesn't hold up upon scrutiny, at least not without a lot of assumptions. If you start thinking about when Raven left, when Summer left, Ruby and Yang's ages, when they were both born, the adventure into the woods, them starting their training young enough to get into Signal, who was supposedly around when, what's a literal fact and what's just someone's emotional interpretation of events... any simple timeline falls apart. There are simply too many contradictions and vague claims to map out a coherent, canonical timeline. We can assume and headcanon many options, but they remain just that: assumptions and headcanons.
BUT that means there's plenty of space for your interpretation, anon. For me personally, I don't think RWBY is ever going to reveal that Tai isn't Ruby's dad and I read the not-very-romantic-y interaction between him and Summer as simply indicative of RWBY's overall approach to romance. After all, Blake and Yang have been in love for several Volumes now, but up until the big kiss all they did was hold hands. However, what RWBY puts on screen is what they've put on screen, which means it's perfectly valid to watch something that looks fairly platonic and extrapolate from there. One of the things the RWBY fandom needs to get better about is allowing the prevalence of fanon to produce outright anger over other ideas. Fans harass others for arguing that it's unlikely Yang actually raised Ruby, or theorizing that Qrow might be Ruby's dad, or writing fics where Blake and Yang are in different relationships. There's such a focus on maintaining the One True Fanon that it obliterates the very purpose of fanworks. We're meant to be transforming the canon in ways that please us and, if we're up to sharing it, pleasing an audience of like-minded folks too. Why would you want to adhere to just one standard telling? That's boring. That's just canon 2.0. You might as well watch RWBY, watch one other version of it (like Ice Queendom) and call it a day if you're not willing to allow a wide variety of creative content to exist. You don't have to engage with it, no one says it has to be your personal cup of tea, but leave fans who want to play with the fictional dolls their way alone. The internet is a big place and the block button doesn't have a limit.

Steadfast, Immovable (3)
The girls were terribly shaken once everything had quieted down. The walk back through the dark, away from the inferno Jaune has started, not helping their emotional state, and even now, they were still jumpy. Outside, Jaune continued to walk in a circle about the small homestead, compacting the ground into a shallow ditch. Tai held the girls in a group hug, as Qrow spoke to Ozpin.
“What happened Qrow?”
“Yang and Juniper decided they needed to find Summer. They bundled up Ruby, and talked Saphron in joining them.” Qrow looked over his shoulder, taking in the sight of Tai still holding the sobbing girls, before returning his attention to the video call with Ozpin. “They went out in the forest alone and unarmed. I noticed they were gone, and found their note. I was almost too late, Oz.”
“But they’re okay?”
“More or less, though I think Tai and I are going to be on nightmare duty for a couple of years.” Qrow took a swig from his flask, trying to calm his shaken resolve. “I’ve never seen such a pack on Patch. Not with the number of huntsmen and huntresses we have. One that size shouldn’t have been possible.”
“How?”
“Jaune.” was Qrow’s one word answer.
“He reanimated?”
“Reanimated, powered up, whatever. All I know is Tai, and I were barely treading water out there, and he just arrived. I thought he was a monster before, but seeing him in action… the Fire department have yet to contain the inferno he started. But without him…”
“So after 4 years sitting dormant, he’s active again.”
“Yeah, well I don’t think Tai is entirely impressed with the garage missing half its walls, or the fact he’s right now wearing a trench around the house, due to his patrol. But yes, without him just showing up…”
“Is there anything you or Tai need?”
“We need Summer found. These girls need their mom back.”
“I have Glynda checking out several leads as I am talking to you.”
“And I need Bart to drop by and check out Jaune. He went toe to toe with an Alpha, and his… he needs some work.”
“I’ll see what his schedule is like, and when he could leave for Patch.” Ozpin responded. “Is there something else, Qrow?”
“Things just feel wrong. There should have been no reason for a pack that large… It was almost like Patch was being targeted.”
“Yes, that is concerning. Very concerning.”
“I know it’s been four years, but have you found any clues as to why Ansel was wiped from the map?”
“Aside from the technology we discovered, I can see no reason why she would have taken such drastic action.”
“Couldn’t be the tech? I ran some of that stuff… It’s well beyond anything anyone has been able to develop, including Atlas.”
“That could be it, but I have nothing concrete to support that theory.”
“I need some answers, Oz.”
“As do I.”
“No, you don’t seem to understand.”
“What don’t I understand?”
“If I was a betting man… if the girls hadn’t run into that pack… it would have attacked us here at the house.”
“I see.”

Tough Luck brainrot rewrite of V7-V8:
Winter had been so worried about becoming the next Winter Maiden that she felt unsure of how to talk about her worries. Clover had always been there to hear her out.
Like Ironwood, Winter sometimes lets herself silently spiral too much into worrying about the big and little things. Clover was always there to bring her back to not think so hard and to trust that the others have everything on their ends figured out, that she shouldn't try to micromanage everything.
Winter is the one that highly suggests that Team RWBY+JNR go out to train with the Ace Ops. She speaks highly of them, especially of Clover. Weiss jokingly suggests Winter may have a crush, which Winter bashfully denies.
Clover, though, does admit to Qrow that he really does like Winter, so this entire process of her becoming the next maiden has quietly worried him. He doesn't want her to become the newest target for Cinder and Salem. Qrow, while not always being the best at advice, gives some of what he knows, learning from his own past mistakes. To be honest, something he wishes he was with Summer.
Winter and Clover are getting closer throughout V7. They have a moment alone where it seems like Clover is ready to commit himself to her, when suddenly, Cinder and co. attack. They have to separate to deal with the different villains.
Clover gets killed by Tyrian and Qrow's poor decision-making. Winter is attacked by Cinder. She is radioed by the Ace Ops that have arrested Qrow and Robyn, as well as Watts and Jacques. That is where she learns that Clover is dead. She knows Qrow was with Clover last, so she decides to ask him what exactly happened.
This doesn't exactly go well. Winter is distraught by the news that the person she romantically loved is dead and she never got a chance to tell him how much she loved him.
Clover's body is not on the other side of the hall from Winter's hospital room (that's fucking weird that it was set up like that in the first place.) Instead, after Winter is done recovering, she goes to see him in the morgue. She makes a promise to Clover that she will get the person that killed him.
Harriet, knowing Winter loved Clover deep down, gives her his lucky pin.
Winter learns how Clover died, though not through Qrow. Robyn tells her because Qrow was far too ashamed to admit what happened. Winter's feelings towards Qrow had soured greatly to the point where she says she would rather leave him with Jacques to rot than help him. While the anger was impulsive, Winter leaves without apologizing.
While fighting Ironwood, Winter feels stung by the situation. She saw Penny in the white void, knowing that she has died. Now, she needs to fight the man that she looked up to as a second father. Instead of blasting him with her new maiden powers, she tries to make him listen to reason, but to no avail. Instead, she leaves, easily avoiding the canon blasts with her new agility. She doesn't know what to do at that point.
At the end of V8, when Winter becomes the next maiden, she is once against struck with grief that she couldn't save Weiss from falling. She keeps losing the people she loves so fast that it makes her feel horrible that she isn't fast or strong enough for them. She still helps get the survivors out to Vacuo's desert, but she still cries silently about the four losses in such a short amount of time.
The whole time during V8, Winter could be seen wearing the lucky pin on her lapel.

Prompt idea: Post volume 9, Ruby and Raven talk about what Ruby saw in her visions from Summer's axe and secrets start coming out
“And what makes you think I’m going to talk to you?” Raven asked as she jumped down from the tree, glaring at Ruby. “If you want answers for anything, you’re going to have to make it worth my time.”
“I know you were with mom when she left. When she lied to dad about what her mission was.”
Raven paused for a moment as she saw a look she hadnt seen in years. The same look that Summer had given her the last time they met face to face. Her heart ached with a pain she had tried to push away, the mask she wore finally letting her true emotions slip. “And… how did you find that one out?”
“You wouldnt believe me if I told you, but that’s not important. What’s important is that you know what happened to mom when she left. So please, tell me what happened.”
“And if I dont?”
“Where else do you think you can run to?”
Raven sighed and sat down. “You still sound like your mother.”
“What happened to her?” Ruby asked.
“I… dont actually know what happened to her.” Raven pulled out a dust blade and looked at it to hide her eyes from Ruby. “Like you, we had been following Ozpin blindly and decided it was time to start finding out what he kept from us. And, like you, we used the lamp to ask a single question: what is Ozpin hiding about Salem.”
“And… what did you find out?”
“Nothing we were ready to handle.” Raven sheathed her blade as her eyes started to glow and created a fire in her hand. She slowly touched a dry stick to let it burn and waved her hand through the smoke to let it swirl around her and Ruby. “We found out the truth about Salem being immortal, that Ozpin didnt have a plan to stop her, we were being led into a war with no end… and it took its toll on both of us.”
Ruby nodded and took a breath. “Then… what happened to mom?”
“I’m… not sure. After we learned more about Salem, I thought about asking Jinn another question, however Summer stopped me. She had a fire in her eyes that I had never seen before and put the lamp back. And when I suggested we confront Ozpin, she didnt want to. Instead, she wanted to keep everything secret from him and asked me to come along with her to Salem to find out how much of what we knew was the truth. I… told her no.”
“Great… another dead end.”
Raven sighed and let her eyes dim as she put out the fire and let the smoke figures vanish. “All I know is that she’s still alive and out there somewhere.”
“And you’ve never gone after her?” Ruby sat up and glared at Raven. “You’ve spent years watching over Yang, dad, and Qrow, but you didnt think about doing the same with mom? Why them and not her?”
Raven went quiet, not sure how to answer. Its not like she had wanted to leave Summer alone, but every time she tried to use her portals to get to her, she could never see her. Always just missing her, always being one step behind her, never actually seeing the woman she cared about. Finally, she found the words she was looking for and looked up at Ruby. “If she doesnt want to be found, she’ll find ways to stay hidden. That’s what made her special to Ozpin. Her semblance made her his perfect spy.”

So what's the story of POWR band AU and how they became a band?
I was originally saving this so I could make art for it- but then the wonders of ✨artblock✨ happened. So I’ll answer it now and one day make art for it 😭
Alright!!
So Ruby was originally in a band with Weiss, Blake and Yang as RWBY, they all had musical experience and a passion for it, and lots of anger to express, so why not!!
I’ve explained before why RWBY splits up, so after that, it’s just Ruby, who tries to make some music with JNPR because Pyrrha isn’t feeling music as much anymore, but they eventually disband too just due to not wanting to continue music at the moment.
So! Ruby is without a band and she has a strong desire to make! Music! So, Ruby asked her friends if they want to start a band, and they agree! Unfortunately, her friends Penny and Oscar have no knowledge of music, but Ruby can fix that! So she starts giving them musical knowledge.
Taiyang and Yang were both drummers, so she gets her dad to give Penny lessons every week.
Her Uncle Qrow was mostly on bass/guitar, and now works as the music teacher for the high school. Ruby is able to get Oscar to have lessons with him on his free time.
Since they consistently hang out in the band room, they eventually take notice of one other person who spends a lot of time there!
When they come a bit early for their free block in the band room, they find another student using his free block for the music room as well. Whitley! He spends his free block playing the piano, and perfecting songs he has to play for events.
Ruby is absolutely thrilled to learn that there’s someone else that she kind of knows, who knows music too. So she immediately is set on making Whitley join her band.
Whitley however, is extremely against joining. Refusing anytime they ask, no matter how they do it. He has a slight idea of who Ruby is and that she’s one of the reasons Weiss got in so much trouble with their father.
Eventually Ruby understands she’s not going to wear Whitley down like she was able to do with Weiss, so she gives up and leaves him alone. But it’s actually four separate events after that, that make Whitley want to join!
Event 1! Whitley decides to stay in the band room during lunch, and due to Penny and Ruby not being at school, Oscar goes to the band room to get some more practice with Qrow.
He tries to ignore them, but finds he can’t really focus on his own music, so he ends up just kind of listening in on their lesson, and he notices how nervous Oscar seems while trying to play, so when Qrow is out of the room, he gives Oscar some advice on how to not be afraid to mess up, and to just relax.
Event 2! Penny runs into Whitley in the hallway, and due to their families kind of knowing each other, they occasionally chat. Or, Penny rambles to him while he mostly listens.
While Penny rambles this time, she talks about the band and how excited she is to learn the drums and play music, and how even if they’re not playing, and just hanging out, she’s having so much fun. Whitley due to this, starts thinking about what it would even be like to be able to hang out with friends and just have fun.
Event 3! Ruby messes up her schedule and accidentally comes into the band room at the wrong time, Whitley is a bit confused on what she’s doing, but doesn’t concern himself with it.
Ruby starts practicing singing some lyrics, and eventually she asks Whitley if he would mind playing some notes for her to sing along too, and then she’ll leave him alone again, which he is surprisingly ok with doing for her. While playing, he realizes how much fun he finds playing the songs Ruby has given him, they’re so much more different than what he’s used to playing.
Qrow eventually comes in and tells Ruby she has the wrong schedule and she runs out to her class 💀 very late
Event 4! Ruby’s band is practicing a song during their free block, but playing a bit over the time. Whitley, who’s free block is right after, is out of class early and comes in during one of their songs.
He kind of just watches from the door, and they don’t notice him yet, very much in their own world of music. But in that moment he sees how much fun they’re having together and how much better at the instruments Penny and Oscar are, and he realizes how much he wouldn’t hate being a part of the band.
He spends a week with that thought on his mind and finds himself kind of stalking their social media posts about playing. Then at like 2 am while trying to sleep but thoughts about the band keeping him awake, he unblocks Ruby’s number and texts her, asking if the band offer is still open.
He regrets it in the morning, as Ruby has spammed his phone with 100 yes’s and questions.
Whitley has his first band practice after school the next day!!
And that’s how POWR became POWR!!!

Becoming Human: Chapter 1
Chapter 1 ~ A New Lease on Life
James never thought death wouldn't come to him so quickly. One moment he was upstairs with his fiancé, Lily Evans; the next, he was on the bottom floor dead. At first, death was lonely. He had to sit in the living room watching everyone mourn him. He watched his mother cry ugly tears, and his friends Peter and Severus console his mourning wife. It wasn't until Lily pulled away that he saw the bump. Lily was pregnant, and now he's dead, and now the pipes in the house are groaning with anger, his anger. Lily looked up, unsure of what was going on. Still, by then, the wake unanimously decided to finish early, and now the house was empty again. James Potter died at 21, which was 4 years ago.
Remus was 15 when it happened, 15 years old when everything went wrong when Greyback broke into his tent during a family camping trip and cursed him with his wolf. His next encounter with the supernatural was at 20; he worked at a small café in Portsmouth, waiting on tables and pouring coffee. Simple job. It brings in money until 4 masked figures come in, called themselves the Death Eaters, dragged Remus out of the café and beat him to a pulp on the street. Luckily fate intervened, and he was saved by a stranger.
"I suggest you leave him alone", the Irishman drawled.
"Why on earth would we do that? He's a filthy mutt that needs to be put down. We're just doing the world a favour, wouldn't you agree?" one of the death eaters spoke; Remus couldn't tell who thanks to all the cryptic masks they wore, but heavens above, he was shit scared and wanted to die right then and there.
"No, I disagree, but you're playing a dangerous game. His boss will wonder where he went in a matter of minutes, and I don't think the Aurors need another reason to cover up your messes; leave him to me" Aurors? What the fuck is that? Remus thought he had never heard of them. Still, considering the 5 people in this alleyway smelled like blood and something undead, he concluded it had something to do with them. He was right; Aurors were a network of vampires that kept the population in check. If they had done their job correctly, Remus wouldn't be surrounded by Death eaters.
"you're a coward betraying your kind like this for an oversized dog", another death eater spat "let's just get out of here", and with that, they all left, flitting from the scene. The Irishman stepped out of the darkness and into the neon glow of the café sign; he was tall and handsome, but something lingered behind his eyes.
"Why help me? Why not let them kill me?" Remus's voice shook
“Everyone deserves death, I just thought you’d want to go out on your terms and not to some deranged Vampiric Nazis, so I decided I want to help you" The Irishman held out a hand. Remus hesitated to take it, but something in him urged him to trust the man "Qrow, I'm like them, a vampire. Don't panic, though. I'm off the red stuff," Qrow huffs a laugh helping Remus up.
"Remus Lupin, so what now?" Remus fixes his clothes the best he can.
"Well, I think fate brought us together for a reason...I found a nice house in Camden, cheap rent. I have a job at the hospital. I'm sure I can get you something" Qrow pulls out a pack of cigarettes and offers one to Remus, who, in turn, accepts.
"Why do you think I'd just join and live with you at the drop of a hat" Remus takes a drag clutching his ribs in a defensive stance. “Just because I'm a … werewolf doesn't mean I roll over and expose myself to the first guy that decides to take pity on me.” Qrow looks around, trying to think of something to say.
"Look, something just tells me you're trying to be human; I want to help you. That and I lost a very old friend. He told me to make a new one" Qrow bares his teeth in an awkward smile that makes Remus stifle a small laugh. “You might not want to trust me, but at least give me a chance; look, the moment you want out, fine, you can go. But please, I'm asking for one chance. I know I was supposed to find you. Call me crazy, but when you’ve been around as long as I have you-” Remus holds his hand, silencing the word vomit Qrow produced.
"And if I accept your lavish offer, what will I-. We do about my time of the month?"
"Hospital basement, it's just been cleared out for renovations and knowing the NHS as it stands, that won't be for another 10-15 years yet." Remus weighed his options; he was about to get kicked out of the house share he was in, Landlord Was being a massive cunt and raising the price, he had to drive miles out to change, and no one helped him... what's the worst that could happen?
"Fine, when do we leave?" Remus takes a drag letting his guard down; Qrow smiles "we can go now if you want" Qrow points over to his car.
The drive back to London wasn't as bad as Remus expected; he managed to call his flatmates and tell them he was leaving and coming to pick up a few things. He wasn't fussed about his old car. It was practically scrap, so it was theirs to deal with. He spoke with the café owner, took the rest of his wages from the till, and then hit the road. Not even halfway, they stopped at a service station to grab food. Remus was in awe that Qrow so casually ordered food and ate it. "I thought you lot need blood to survive and well eat, I guess."
"Common misconception, as I said, I'm off the stuff. Human blood it's like a drug, but I'm doing better than I was. I eat for show this stuff,” he gestures to the big mac meal on the table “it has no taste, it's been a tough couple of years... adapting but I'm getting there” Qrow's voice was low.
"Oh, what about daylight?" Remus was far more interested in learning more about vampires than anything else.
"It's bright, so I wear sunglasses, and as for the other questions you have, watch" Remus watches Qrow manifest, his fangs descend, and his eyes go black. Blink. Human once more. "Holy shit! And you can do that running thing those guys did, too?"
"Yeah, it's called flitting; you run fast, that's about it, really" the two continued to dine on their French fries "can I ask how old you are? I mean, if you want to tell me that it is."
"Around 127 years old, give or take a few months. I was recruited at 21 during the first world war. Was a medic, got caught, and well” Qrow gestured to himself. It was true. He was caught out and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp. “What about you? How do you become a creature of the night?”
Remus sighed; it was an incredibly sore subject. Losing his mum that night and then his chance at everyday life thanks to some creep by the name Greyback "I was 15, camping trip" Qrow didn't press for more he could sense it wasn't a story ready to be told. For some reason, he found Qrow to be easy to talk to.
******
They finally arrived at the flat just before the morning rush of commuters entered London; Camden was an exciting place, Remus thought. The house Qrow managed to get cheap was even nicer than he thought. It was a simple townhouse defiantly worth over a few million pounds; Remus supposed a few million a month was cheap to a vampire. "Here it is, home sweet home", Qrow mused, slamming the car door." I must admit I thought it would be a slum of some sort, but this is nice" Remus peered into the front window into what he assumes is the living room. "I feel a trip to Ikea is needed. Where's the closest one?"
"Wembley, I think, help me with the Tv, would you" Qrow opens the boot pulling out a nice flatscreen box ", 42 inches. Picked it up from the Tesco; it was on them Clubcard prices right cracker steal."
"Well, at least we have a tv", Remus mused, helping Qrow pull the Tv from the car. It wasn't long until another car pulled up to the house; it was a fancy automobile considering Qrow and Remus drove up in a vintage Ford consul. Stepping out was a tall hooked-nosed man. He didn't look all too welcoming but gave off a prick of a property owner.
"You must be Mr Rosewood?" The man drawls with the foulest look on his face
"oh Yeah, hi, umm, you don't look like a Lily, mind you, no judgement here", Qrow bares his teeth in what he thinks is a smile "no Ms Potter is busy, so she sent me, any issues with the building you are to contact me, My name is Severus Snape" Snape holds out a card with his name and number on, Qrow takes it "Qrow, and my roommate Remus…." Qrow smiles, helping Remus carry the Tv into the house.
"Lupin, Remus lupin", Snape simply sneers at both "pleasure to meet you" Snape grinds out "it's a nice 3-bed house. Lily has said the rent has been negotiated; any issues, call me directly I'll respond, or I'll send Peter around. Oh, and if a little punkish delinquent named Sirius Black bothers, you tell him to fuck off" Snape grimaces once more, handing a set of Keys over to Qrow "you might want to get another set cut for him" With that, Snape leaves the house. Remus is in awe of the place; it is lovely. Something about it felt so inviting and safe. "Well, I guess that's the maintenance of the lot sorted", Remus huffs
"Aye, well, home sweet home, I guess. You take the first pick of the rooms. I'll set this bad boy up, and then we can head to that Ikea place you were talking about." Remus stops at the stairs
"Wait, you've been alive for over 100 years and never been to Ikea?" Remus was in awe
"Yeah, never needed to, I haven't done many things, but now that's all going to change."
"Fair enough", Remus laughs continuing up the stairs ", you have bought a Tv license and an aerial for that, right?" Remus shouts from the landing
"The fucks a TV licence, and I thought you just plug these things in", Qrow huffs reading over the instruction booklet; it clearly said it needed Wi-Fi and a tv aerial to function. "Fuck's sake!"
Remus shook his head, looking around the 3 bedrooms, but something felt off; it felt like someone was following him. He peered into the master bedroom. It was huge and perfect. Qrow said he got first dibs and might as well go for it. He threw what belongings he managed to grab from the old house into his room and turned to leave. He still couldn't shake the feeling someone was watching his every move.
A few days later, the house was slowly coming together; Qrow had realised that Remus had acute OCD and kept the place looking clean and insisted that everything had a home. He claimed it gave him control, so Qrow didn't mind. In return, Qrow decided to fix anything broken in the house; the pair weren't overly fond of Snape and weren't in the mood to meet new people. The only thing that refused to be fixed was the upstairs toilet; Qrow called Snape, who said he would send Peter over as soon as possible. "I spoke with some people over at the hospital; it looks like a porter job is going; you want it?" Qrow spoke between bites of toast. "Really? Yeah, when do I start?" Remus beamed. "Today, I'll make sure you are close to my ward; thanks for the tea this morning."
"I didn't make you tea. I thought you made it?" Remus and Qrow look at each other, confused, both taking a sip from the mysterious tea. "Oh... then who made the tea? Unless..." Qrow set his mug down; looking behind him, the sudden feeling of being watched had returned, and they could both feel it.
"Unless what Qrow-"
"Shhh-" Remus was taken aback; Qrow kept scanning the kitchen, waiting for something or someone to appear "you going to tell me what you're doing, or is this some weird vampire trick?"
"Do you get the feeling that someone is watching us? I had it since we returned from," Qrow holding in his shudder ", Ikea."
"Well, I did feel something when I was picking a room" Remus could feel and hear the tremble in his voice ", but-" Qrows' Alarm blares out. "Jesus' fuck!" Qrow silences his phone "guess the ghost hunt can wait; time for your first day."
Qrow grabbed his coat, leaving his plate and mug. "Leave it, Rem, or we'll be late!" Qrow shouts from the hallway. Remus stares at the messy table, itching to clean "ugh, fine! But promise me you won't leave them again!" Remus follows Qrow out of the house; as he closes the door, he could have sworn a messy-haired man was standing in the kitchen holding two mugs of tea.
James liked having roommates again. It reminded him of when he lived with Sirius and Peter at university, except back then, he wouldn't hide; he would be joining in on the banter, even starting it, but the moment James heard them both talking about Vampires and werewolves, he got freaked out. Was it true this whole time that they lived amongst them? James didn't know why he was questioning it; he was a ghost for crying out loud! So, James did what he always did: clean the pots, make a cup of tea, wait for Sirius, and act like he was alive and human again.
"Bye guys have a good day's work," James said to the empty kitchen as he watched his new housemates, well tenants, he guessed, leave for work. James was used to people moving in and out, so he wasn't expecting this couple to stay long. So, he sighed, picked up the leftover pots, and began washing them, just doing odd domestic chores hoping they would last longer in the house if it felt like a magic cleaning fairy exhausted. Even if Remus had started putting him out of a job with his manic cleaning episodes. By 10am, the house was spotless, meaning Sirius would be over to sit on the porch before his shift at the hospital. The kettle had boiled, and James made Sirius his tea and waited on the porch; just like always, Sirius stubbed out his ciggy and sat down at the porch to pick up his tea.
"Thanks, mate." he laughed into his cup
"It's okay; we got new tenants the other day. I think you will like them. One’s got a killer black trench coat and boots. The other is, well, he's defiantly a dog person." James sat beside Sirius his arm wrapped around Sirius's shoulders. Even though Sirius can't see or hear him, James hopes that Sirius feels comfort when they have one-sided conversations.
"You know I don't believe much in ghosts, but I know you can hear me. Can you make sure Padfoot is okay up there? He-" Sirius choaks on his sob "well, I thought the big doofus was going to make it, but the vet said his cancer spread, so he crossed that rainbow bridge." Sirius tried to hold it together but failed; it broke something in James to see his best friend like that. "Oh shit, I gotta go, mate; I love you, and I miss you so fucking much" Sirius wiped his face and downed his cuppa, heading for work and leaving James alone again. "I know, mate, I miss you too" James stayed on the porch for 2 hours
******
"Your self-control is insane if you can work in a hospital" Remus sat down in the breakroom opposite Qrow "oh, and thanks again for helping me get this job; how much rent do I owe you?"
"Nothing, it's fine. I can cover it; you just buy food and furniture" Qrow sips on his coffee as he watches the other nurses and doctors rush around the canteen getting food. Remus joins him, observing the room "speaking of food, I managed to nip to the Co-Op and grabbed steak for dinner. I'm guessing you want yours raw?" Remus smiles at his joke as Qrow chokes on his coffee, laughing, "that's a good one, Lupin; yeah, the steak sounds good.” Qrows pager beeps; he pulls it out, reading the call. “I'm gonna be down in paediatrics this afternoon. I'll see you at six” Qrow leaves again, rushing through the corridors to the ward.
“Oh, so you’re the new Surgeon”, Sirius Coo'd from the ward reception desk; he waltzed over to Qrow, handing over the patient's file smugly. “Male, 16, shattered his leg, you must be pinning it back in place. Doctor Black, the pleasure is all mine.” Qrow takes the file scanning over the information
“Not the worse break I've seen; you want in on this?" Qrow gestures to the operating room.
“Wait; really?”
“Yes, really, Doctor Qrow Rosewood, but Qrow is fine, honestly” Qrow offers a hand Sirius accepts, giving his winning smile “nice to see the hospital put a specialist in orthopaedics' on the books for a change. Sirius.” the two make their way into the surgical suit.
Sirius and Qrow stand over the patient gloved and ready to roll. “Have you done this before?” Qrow looks up at Sirius, who simply states, “no, I haven’t; I've read about it that’s as close as I've gotten to something like this.”
“Well, like I always say, see one, do one, Teach one. Not my first pinning and it's not as fucked as your notes made it out to be, so the chances of amputation if we fuck up are slim to none,” Sirius could hear the smile behind Qrows mask. “Sirius is quite the unique name if I must say.”
Sirius scoffs “coming from you? You're named after a bird but spelt it with a Q.”
“Yeah, I was pretentious little shit when I changed it. But I'm just putting two and two together here; you don’t know a Severus Snape, would you?”
“I do”, Sirius spat the words out at Qrow “why?”
“Oh, it's just my Landlady’s Maintenace man, possible lover or something has told me to tell you to fuck off. If I see you near my house.” Qrow begins his insertions of the metal rods
“he’s a slimy git, that’s all, And I would really appreciate it if you still let me-”
“of course, you can sit in front of our house until you die. I really don’t care. Though I can’t speak on behalf of my roommate, why not come around for dinner tonight? I think we're having steak.”
Sirius was stunned but let the offer hang in the air as he focused on the procedure. Watching Qrow move the pins into place gracefully and with little effort was mesmerising. It wasn’t long before the process was finished, and the patient was wheeled out. “My offer still stands; we’re having steak tonight at six; you look like a medium rare kind of guy anyway” the two walk down the corridor back to the ward.
Remus was contently mopping when he heard the familiar sound of Qrow talking. He looked up to see him walking with another doctor. “I suppose I could join you. My shift finishes at 5:30 today, so why not” Sirius smiles.
“Speaking of my roommate, Remus, over here.” Qrow waves Remus over. “Sirius, this is Remus, Remus this is the guy we’re supposed to shout fuck off to, I have invited him for dinner. You don’t mind, do you?”
Remus wasn’t as stunned by Qrows abruptness as he used to be. He held out his scarred hand to Sirius, who gracefully accepted. Sirius’ beauty encapsulated Remus, the way his hair framed his face to the deep grey of his eyes that reminded him of a summer storm. “Yeah, hi, your good with steak, right?”
Sirius couldn’t for the life of him formulate a response. The taller man in front of him. He was utterly beautiful even if he was littered with scars. “Yeah, sounds pretty, guy - Good sounds good”, Remus tried to conceal the blush spreading across his face by laughing. Oh yeah, this being human thing is going to be so easy.

Hi! Hope your week is doing okay. So, your header had me in a thought: in your opinion where and how did both Ironwood and Ozpin both similarly went wrong, and how and when did they diverge enough that Ozpin and Oscar manage to accomplished their objective alive at the end, mostly, while Ironwood sinks to the bottom of a new lake, alone and defeated, in your opinion? And why? In your OCIN AU will James and Chae-Yeong both be leaving for and then leaving Atlas at the same time? Do you have anyone in mind in Oscar's place as a member addition, not as Oz incarnation of course, as a tagalong? Who's taking Qrow's place as the spy field agent? Where's Ren in the AU? Why did you make Winter's hair formerly black? How did you think Ozpin in canon should have told the truth about Salem, and when? Would he have come up with a better answer to Ruby's question on dealing with Salem if he wasn't in the middle of a mental breakdown, and the others in a building panic attack, or Qrow punching him?
Ironwood vs Ozpin
I think the main thing that contributed to both Ironwood and Ozpin's mistakes were both of them have trouble trusting people. Neither of them really felt able to be able to share things with others-- be it Ozpin holding back important information from both Remnant and the others in his inner circle, or Ironwood holding back any kind of vulnerability for fear of looking weak
So then the key difference is that Ozpin is able to start trusting more, and start opening himself up more through the help of Oscar and being called to task by people close to him (others in RRAYNBBOW), but Ironwood never has that. Ironwood is so deeply steeped in Atlas' culture of repression, that him opening up is much harder than it is for Ozpin to. And that tendency towards repression, and maintaining images, and all that other corely Atlesian stuff is ultimately what dooms Ironwood. If he had opened up, and he had a close support system, and he was willing to admit that he made mistakes, he could have been saved, and he could have been the hero he believed himself to be. But he was tragically doomed by the narrative and his own commitment to Atlas
Age Swap AU Questions
The question about James and Chae-Yeong is a little spoilery, but I will say that both of their arcs in volume 4 will be based on Atlas, and they will both be leaving Atlas so the team can reunite in volume 5
Ren is currently teaching at Beacon along with the others from Team JNPR, and I have him teaching Stealth & Security. Originally there was going to be a reference to that in chapter 1 of volume 2, but I just couldn't manage to work it in naturally
And Winter has black hair in this bcs I personally subscribe to the belief that in canon she dyes her hair white to fit with the Schnee family image. Winter has black eyebrows, unlike her siblings and mom, and we know that Jacques' hair was originally black. While the Schnee family tree is different in this, I did decide to let Winter keep the naturally dark hair
I saved the question about who will eventually be a tagalong to the main group like Oscar and who will be fulfilling a Qrow-like role for last in this section, mainly to talk about a bigger thing. And that's that especially as the story goes on, a lot of the parallels between characters get less cut and dry. To some degree, I already wanted to kind of have that be present. Like, Ozpin is like Ruby narratively, but he's also like Oscar. So there will be characters fulfilling some of the same narrative roles that others do in canon, but it won't necessarily be a simple "this character fulfills this singular role from canon" for everyone. Especially in the Mistral arc, a lot of the plans I have diverge from what things are like in canon, with there being the same end place but a different way of getting there. I think I mentioned it before, but since volume 4's arcs are so heavily tied to each of the characters and their specific journeys (beyond the RNJR plotline), there's a lot of differences in the v4 plots for the age swap. That means that there are some pretty sharp differences in some character roles that get filled
I will say off of that, though, that there will be new characters joining the larger group in volume 4, with a couple of them sticking into 5 and onwards. For a spy/field agent-like role, I'll say that Team RWBY in this universe has some parallels with Team STRQ in the main one
Ozpin's Secrets
tbh I think that, at the very least for the people who got clued into how Salem exists, there are Maidens, there are magic relics that she is trying to get, the basics of "hey I'm in an immortal divorce battle with my ex wife" should have been part of the pitch. Like, I don't think he needs to get into the nitty gritty details or anything, but at least a tl;dr of what Jinn showed RWBY and co would have been good so everyone involved has a better understanding of what's going on. You're already dumping a bunch of ridiculous and terrifying information on people about the end of the world and how magic is real, might as well throw in how you and Salem are tied together
I do think whether he should have mentioned that Salem can't be killed (by him) would have also been important information to throw in, but how to do that's a little trickier. If you think you can win against something, even if it'll be difficult, it's easier to fight and commit. But if you believe that your enemy is unbeatable, that can destroy morale. I think Ozpin talking about that with his inner circle could have helped better prepare them for Salem, and maybe led to some other ideas flowing about how to handle things, but that's still something where I get why he'd be hesitant to talk about it
However, I do think that regardless of anything else in the situation where Ruby asks what Ozpin's plan is to defeat Salem, it would have been the same response no matter what. It seems very clear to me that Ozpin has no idea how to defeat Salem. He knows that he needs to keep the relics and Maidens away from her. He knows that he needs to keep her in check. But he doesn't have any actual plans for how to beat her. So no matter how much time he would have had to think about it, no matter how RWBY and co would have reacted, it always would have been the same answer. Ozpin just has no idea how to beat Salem

You have some valid points.
However, that does not negate the fact that Taiyang is a neglectful and in ways abusive father. Let's take all of Volume 4 for a prime example. Taiyang tries to force a mechanical arm on Yang without her input. He does not comfort his daughter during a PTSD incident. He constantly "gives her her space" and talks shit to her. And yes, he talks shit to her.
He accuses her of having "temper tantrums" for a Semblance. But honestly? That is a massive misinterpretation of what Yang does. Because Yang is quite masterful in her emotional control. Given the world of Remnant and how intense emotions can draw the Grimm, this is necessary... so for Tai to dismiss the rest of his daughter's abilities and tactical talents to call her fighting "a temper tantrum" shows he doesn't pay attention. And that is rather on par for him since Yang was five years old and ran off with Ruby to try and find where Raven was hiding.
Hell, it's not even Taiyang who saves Yang and Ruby. It's Qrow. Did Tai learn Yang and Ruby were missing? Or did Qrow come by to check on them and learn they had skedaddled? We never learn. We won't, either, because Qrow loves Tai enough he'd lie if it were the latter.
Honestly, I have issues with all of the parents in Remnant. Even Blake's parents fucked up by letting their daughter run off rather than try to talk to her or even set up a situation where some other family took her under their wing while Blake remained in the White Fang. (I know, I know, they were afraid of driving Blake off further but by doing what they did, they left Blake scared that they hated her for running away.) But Tai has a special place there for how he neglects and abandons his daughters.
Yes, abandons. He essentially states "I can't leave to search for Ruby because Yang needs me." And then Yang decides to leave (before she is ready) and Taiyang stays home rather than saying "let's go look for her together." What, was he afraid his flowers would die without being watered regularly? This is his daughters we are talking about there. And he is so passive and relies on everyone else to look after his girls. He relied on Yang to raise Ruby. He relied on Qrow to watch over Ruby when she left with Jaune, Ren, and Nora. He relied on Yang being able to care for herself (despite not being in a good place mentally) when Yang left to find Ruby.
Each member of Team STRQ has their own flaws. Qrow seems scared of himself so he doesn't get close to people "for their own good." Raven seems scared of others so she runs away from commitments. We're not sure as to Summer but... she did go off on a suicide run to fight Salem alone - maybe she was scared of having others get hurt in fights she feels she should handle alone. And Taiyang seems scared to act at all.
Honestly I thought we'd left the “Tai was neglectful” discourse back years ago.
Because yeah, he was. I get him: he was left by his first wife and her second one disappeared and never came back, and that he suddenly saw himself a single father of two, still having to work to support them while he was still grieving, and the only person who could help him probably had to keep his distance most of the time because he was afraid his bad luck would affect them. And I understand that he was incredibly depressed, and that he loves his daughters more than anyone in this world and that eventually he came back from it (we see him spending time with his daughters and reading stories to them in canon content), and Yang did say in volume 5 that her father was always busy with school, so I also assume that the guy worked a lot and that he always made sure Yang and Ruby had their basic necessities covered. But he did neglect Ruby and Yang emotionally for a while, and that did affect Yang. That's it. He's not a bad person, he just wasn't the best father for a while.
It's sort of like Willow. She was a caring mother for her children when their kids were little; Weiss really implied it. And seeing she is able to summon Grimm, I assume she could fight and that she even could have been the one who taught Winter how to do so (and Winter's original outfit seemed to be based off hers in portrait, so I assume they were close). But then Weiss' tenth birthday happened, and everything came crashing down. She became very depressed, and started drinking to numb that pain, becoming an alcoholic. I do feel bad for Willow; I know that she really does love all her children, and that in volume 8 she took a turn, stopped drinking and started repairing her relationship with at least two of her children. I know she's trying to be better now, but that doesn't change the fact that she was neglectful towards her kids as well. She didn't only allow Jacques to still abuse her those years, she also allowed her kids to be abused because she was usually to drunk or depressed to do anything. We saw that the closest thing to a proper mother figure Weiss had growing up was Winter herself, who was only fifteen when her mother shut down and had to take on that role. We've all also seen how Winter turned out, emotionally repressed trying to distance herself as much as she can from her entire family as possible, not just Jacques. And we saw Whitley; how lonely he felt because his sisters got to leave and he's stuck with their abusive father and their alcoholic mother, that he was so young when his mother shut down that he probably doesn't even remember when she was a loving mom, and how he at first could barely even stand being in the same room with Willow or her talking to him because he resented her.
They both made mistakes and that has shaped their kids being the way they are, not only because their mom left or died or because their father is abusive. That doesn't mean I hate them, of course. I love both Willow and Tai, I don't think they're bad people, I want to see their families heal and I wanna see them spend time with their kids, and most of all, I know that they'd give their lives if that meant seeing their kids safe because despite everything, I don't doubt that Tai loves Yang and Ruby and that Willow loves Whitley, Weiss and Winter as well, more than anything in the world. That's all.

A continuation of Ruby tricks Jaune to marry her pls. Jaune try to go to Ozpin to see if he can annul the marriage, but is surprised that he can't and also the world marriage trigger some sort of vietnam memories. Sadly for him, Tai and Qrow are there to congratulate their daughter/niece for her marriage, things go south and now they are trying to beat him for trying to annul his marriage with Ruby
Sorry for the delay with this Ask. I'm bad at organizing my time for these things 😅 First part Here
------------------------
At Prof. Ozpin's office
Jaune: *Panic* Prof. Ozpin, you have to help me!!
Ozpin: Calm down Mr. Arc, take a deep breath, and tell me what's going on.
He takes a deep breath and calms down a bit.
Jaune: *Worry* I need your help Professor. Ruby set me up.
Ozpin: She set you up? What did she do?
Jaune: She told me that she wanted me to sign a card for her sister. She told me to sign on a piece of paper that was covered by another piece of paper, but with a hole for the signature.
Ozpin: Ok
Jaune: So I sign and then she reveals that it wasn't a letter to Yang!
Ozpin: Oh, what did you sign?
Jaune: Sign a marriage certificate.
After hearing that Prof. Ozpin turns white as a ghost.
Ozpin: Did you say... a marriage certificate?
Jaune: Yes, and I wanted to know if you could help me to annul it.
Ozpin breathing becomes heavier.
Ozpin: It's happening again.
Jaune: Professor?
Ozpin: *Panic* It's happening again!!!
Jaune: Professor Ozpin, calm down! Is something wrong?!
Ozpin: No you don't understand boy. There is no escape for this. I once wanted to escape and lost my life trying!!!
Jaune: You mean you almost lost your life, right?
Ozpin grabs him by the shoulders and looks him in the eye with an expression of terror.
Ozpin: Listen well, Jaune. Now that you've got time, run. Run as far as you can and never come back.
Jaune: You're scaring me Professor.
Ozpin: And you should be! Run now, don't waste time, you don't want it to be too late.
Jaune: Too late for what?
Glynda (speaker phone): Prof. Ozpin, Tai and Qrow came to visit. They say they want to meet their new son-in-law
Ozpin lets him go and walks to the phone.
Jaune: Prof. Ozpin?
Ozpin: It's too late.
Jaune: Sir?
Ozpin: It was a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Arc. *To the phone* Glynda, please let them in.
The office doors open and two people appear that Jaune has never met in person. They look like good people, but dangerous at the same time.
Tai: Hi, sorry to interrupt your chat.
Ozpin: Don't worry. How can I help you?
Qrow: We want to meet the brat who got his hands on my niece.
Tai: Do you know where we can find him? Or maybe you can call him?
Ozpin: There is no need to look for him or call him. He… *start to cry a little* He is right there. *Points at Jaune*
He then takes a handkerchief from his back pocket and wipes away his tears.
Ozpin: Please forgive me.
Qrow: Why are you crying?
Ozpin: Is nothing. It's better that I get out. Mr Arc, you will always be in my memory.
Ozpin walks out of the office, leaving Jaune alone with Ruby's Dad and Uncle.
Tai: I hope he's okay. But anyway, Jaune, right?
Jaune: *Worry* Yes sir!
Tai: Why did you marry my daughter?
Qrow: Yeah, why did you marry a girl younger than you? Big girls your age were too much for you?! Answer me!!!
Jaune: *Cover his face with his arms* Please don't hit me!
Tai: Whoa, calm down. We're here to congratulate the couple. Jaune, don't worry about him. He is very overprotective of my daughters. But I am interested to know why you two decided to get married so young. Couldn't wait until graduation? HAHAHA!
Jaune: Actually sir…
Tai: Please calle me Tai.
Jaune: Actually Tai, Ruby tricked me into marrying her. She made me sign a marriage certificate.
Tai: Oh she did that to you. My ex-wife did the same thing to me, but she did it differently if you know what I mean. *Wink*
Qrow: *quietly* Dear God.
Tai: *Smiling* So, are you planning to celebrate your marriage? Because if you want we can do it at my house. There is a beautiful view of the lake that will make you fall in love with it.
Jaune: Actually, sir, I'm trying to annul the marriage.
Tai: You're trying what?
Jaune: Annul the marriage. You see, I never wanted to marry Ruby.
Tai: *mad* Why not? Is she not good enough for you? Is that what you're saying?
Jaune: No no! She's a great girl, but…
Qrow: But what? Do you think you can get a better girl? Ruby is the sweetest and most beautiful girl that has ever existed in this world!
Jaune: Is not that! She set me up!!
Qrow: And what?! Don't you like the idea of having a family with her?!!
Tai: Does my daughter disgust you?!!!
Jaune: I did not say that!! I know she is beautiful and sweet!
Qrow: Then why do you want to annul the marriage?!
Jaune: Because she set me up!
Tai: Hold him Qrow, I'll teach this jerk a lesson.
Qrow: With pleasure.
Jaune: Someone help me!!!!

"childish tantrum" Last I checked Ruby wasn't the one blaming everyone else for their screw-ups at Beacon, getting pissy over poor people not adoring them, going full f--k-the-poor and deciding to arrest or kill anyone who told them off. If only she was a big strong manly man you'd worship the ground she walks on. Too bad women aren't automatically wrong and horrible for not obeying men huh?
What show are you even watching? Also nice circumventing my block to continue harassing me. You really are a child so desperate to get the last word in you would go and break Tumblrs TOS by ignoring my block huh?
If you actually paid attention to the show, you would know that yes in fact Ruby did try and blame everyone else for their failures and refused to listen even back in volume 3 when Qrow said they failed at the end of volume 2. And lamenting “why didn’t Ozpin listen?” Is not him blaming other people for his mistakes. At the end of the day Beacon was Ozpins responsibility and he made a lot of mistakes. James doesn’t ever say it was all his fault but is going through a difficult process of processing all his emotions and trauma from Beacon which is not a fun process.
Also I love how we’re now pretending James was secretly Tyrian the whole time like the sheer amount of reach on that point is mind boggling. James arrested someone who was defacing military property. That same man was released the same day and was killed BY TYRIAN. We literally saw that happen and somehow you’re going going to blame James for that??
I don’t worship the ground James walks on. I don’t worship the ground anyone walks on that’s honestly disturbing and unhealthy. Just like your obsession with me and my content. You don’t actually have any evidence to support your unhealthy obsession with making Ruby a perfect angle so you instead lob insults and try to pretend that I, a woman, am a misogynist because I don’t like a character that a bunch of white men wrote to do shitty things.
Now please leave me alone and block me. It’s so easy to do and you won’t get pissed off because someone dared to like a fictional character you deemed a monster because the writers told you to.

Ozqrow Week Day 1: Death
(it's gonna be short drabbles this year cause I've decided to be a responsible person and work on my series a little more. Happy @ozqrowweek everyone!)
Pairings: Ozpin/Qrow Branwen
Fandom: Rwby
Summary: Ozpin is dying. Qrow spends his last moments with him.
Warning: Major Character Death, dying, angst
--------------
Ozpin was dying again. Well, actually, it was Ozma who was dying again. Ozpin himself was dying for the first time. The ceiling of the vault came crumbling down on him as the idea of death reared its ugly head. He knew eventually his time would come sooner than he expected. Soon, his soul would leave his body and find a new host to inhabit. Some poor unfortunate soul would have to bear the burden of being not only his vessel but the vessel to at least ten other souls, all for the sake of finally putting down Salem.
He sighed. Screams echoed around the bunker. His students were dying left and right. Innocent people were losing their lives all for the sake of his secret. Their only hope for his students to maybe make it out alive was if Ruby Rose tried and activated her silver eyes – but he hadn't told her.
He hadn't told her of the power her eyes hold, he hadn't told her that she had the potential to fix all of this, to stop them before things got too out of hand –
And he didn't.
So many mistakes, so many regrets, so much wasted time, and so little time left to fix all of them.
Sure, his life may not have had the most fairytale of starts, but he had so many opportunities to find a happy ending he had been dreaming of, yet he lay, covered in rubble, magic fleeting, and all alone.
"OZ!"
He strained to look up. Though his vision was blurry, he could see the familiar lean figure sprinting towards him. He transformed briefly before he appeared in human form right in front of him.
“Q…Qrow,” He wheezed, “You…you came.”
“Of course, I came! Damnit, Oz –” Qrow pulled out at the heavy rumble, “Here, lemme get this off–”
“Qrow–”
“You still got some magic in your tank?”
“Qrow—”
“Come Oz. Jimmy’s set up an airbus for us up on the–”
“Qrow.”
He stopped. His eyes were welling up with tears as they finally met each other’s gaze. Ozpin winced as he tried to bring his arm up. “Qrow…this is it.”
The avian man shook his head as the bunker rumbled. “No, no don’t say that, Oz. We can still–”
“No, Qrow…I can’t. My magic is already leaving my body. E-even if we somehow managed to get the rubble off, I can hardly move an inch…I’m surprised I’m even talking to you right now.”
Qrow squeezed his eyes shut, clenching his fists. “No…Oz. You can’t…you can’t die, Oz. I don’t want you to.”
Ozpin smirked, “How do you think I feel?”
Qrow almost cracked a smile. Almost. He grabbed Ozpin’s face and pressed their foreheads together. Tears ran down his face onto Ozpin’s cheek.
“Qrow…promise me something?”
“Anything, Oz.”
“Promise…promise you’ll find me. Even if it’s not me anymore. Find me…and stop her. Please.”
Qrow sniffed. “Yeah, Oz. I promise. I’ll…I’ll go to the ends of Remnant for ya. I’ll…I’ll do whatever it takes.”
Ozpin hummed. “Thank you…and, Qrow.”
He opened his eyes, “Yeah…?”
He smiled, “Thank you…for being in my life. I…adore you…”
Darkness crept from the corners of his eyes and overtook his vision completely. He couldn’t feel Qrow’s calloused hands on his face, he couldn’t feel the weight of the collapsed bunker pinning him to the ground, nor could he hear the screaming of the innocent people above.
He couldn’t feel anything but the absolute crushing pain from his heart shattering inside of his chest.
And then, he could feel nothing at all.

@lintuwaterfall already covered most of this expertly but for my own two cents:
I find your framing very odd. You single out Yang more than say Ruby who actually asked the question or Qrow who actually punched Oscar and put quotes around truth as though its an ill fitting word for the situation at that time. While also establishing your premise as the default, IE that Oz was demonized rather than people being upset he lied to them several times and that his lies had gotten them stranded in the wilderness.
Your own emotions are of course valid, but they don't necessarily translate to everyone else's experience which I think is an important thing to keep in mind. For instance, I think we have plenty of reason to dislike Oz and so it did not feel OOC. The most obvious reason of which is the academies being designs with the intention of students serving as meat shields for the relics. Let alone recruiting people into a war under false pretenses or endangering civilians and his allies with his deceptions.
feel like we were watching a very different show because Yang was not exactly enamored with Raven's takes. In fact she had zero time for her until Raven challenges everything she knew about the world by showing her real magic.
Even then, all that did was make her ant to question everything not just Oz, rather than blindly follow. She did not however particularly trust Raven, hence, you know, ditching her to go be with Ruby. Also genes had nothing to do with this.
See, this framing again just feels deliberately deceptive because Yang, as far as I recall did not attack Ozpin, Qrow did. Though I also need to stress that Ozpin is not a 14 year old kid, he is ancient wizard who happens to be living in a 14 year old kid and then decided to leave said kid holding the bag rather than deal with people being angry at him. The idea Ozpin is processing things like a 14 year old is entirely a HC, especially as its made clear at this stage his and Oscar's minds are distinct, even as his own devours Oscar's. Though I find it interesting the 17 year old is given now allowances.
No, Blake has not been in this exact scenario. Her lies did not endanger those around her. She did not lie to people to get them to help her while underselling the danger. She did not claim to have a solution and then send people marching into deaths maw. They are not the same.
Ozpin created the academies to act as shields for the Relics. This puts every single student in the line of fire.
Ozpin hides information from people while wanting them to make decisions to join him in a manner that isolates them from their support networks, such as with Pyrrha.
Ozpin grooms and recruits people from the Academies, such as with STRQ, CFVY and RWBT. Meaning he's targeting teenagers and favoring specific one's to become his agents as adults in a war with out their knowledge.
Ozpin knows full well he has no plan and no idea what to do but insists that he does, while also hiding information from his allies to keep them manageable, even as it actively undermines their and his ability to get anything done.
He even hides integral information like the Relics being Grimm lures even when taking said items through Grimm territory in vehicles full of civilians, endangering their lives.
& above all that when called on these things, his response was generally to lie, double down, or ignore the points until the tension finally snapped.
Ozpin has reasons for being the way he is, that's for sure, but the cast had every right to be suspicious of and angry with him.
Okay so, I want ppls thoughts
What are yalls opinions on how Yang (and qrwby in general) reacted in v6 to the 'truth' about Oz n Salem (WITHOUT demonizing Oz, I see enough of that)?
Cause like. Seeing that scene made me so upset in many ways; about how Oz and Oscar were treated, how the characters were extremely ooc, etc. Because I genuinely think the writers were trying WAY too hard to demonize Oz when we, ultimately, have no reason to hate him.
Not only that, but everyone was painfully out of character, ESPECIALLY Yang, and to an extent Blake. It's honestly so bad it completely ruined Yangs character for me, and her mistreatment of Oz in general.
Yang is a great character, and is normally really well written. Though unfortunately her treatment of Oz makes no sense. She was really quick to believe her own mother, who ABANDONED her, and was so fast to demonize and hate Oz. I really hate to say it, but her Branwen genes show the most in v6.
It's bad she attacked Oz in general, but it's worse when you consider the fact that Oz is very much ALSO a 14 year old kid now. Thus, he feels and processes things like a kid would- hence the hiding away. Oz wouldn't have run if she was a bit more patient and less hostile, and this goes for Qrow too (whom I love).
And Blake- I currently can't remember if she said anything, but I do remember her being upset/mad, which just... makes no sense. She's been in the exact same situation as Oz.
I'm losing my train of thought, but just... that entire scene was horribly written
