Thinking about the "paint our nails, try and clothes, and talk about cute boys" thing setup between Weiss and Ruby in v1 and how the strongest ship baits we've gotten for both of them are:
- Jaune: who's a teenager turned into an old man from a fairytale, then back into a teenager again
And
- Oscar: a teenager who is very quickly merging with the spirit of an immortal old man who's been the subject of many fairytales in the past

"So rather than try, she throws out her hands with a growl, grabs him by the lapels of his stupid coat. Lets the conversation crash to a halt as she pulls him into her space and…"
Hey... go read Reciprocity by @sigruned if you haven't already. It's phenomenal.
bonus sketches under the cut
I sketched this in procreate initially cause I didn't think I would colour it. Ended up bringing it into sai and lost a bit of the emotion from the original sketch by having to redraw it, but oh well. 😔
Also a zoom in on the doodles in the corner inspired by another part of the fic's most recent chapter:
I support Ruby shaking Oscar (and/or Oz) like a pringles can whenever they're being cagey little jerks.

I could talk about how Oscar's entire scene was a direct conversation with Ruby, where he addressed her as having 'left' and not 'died' (a fascinating dichotomy to Nora's 'we buried our friends today' opening). I could talk about the implications of how he lost his certainty and hope when he lost her, and the fact that Oz can't provide him with any substitution in her absence (Oz has no answers for anything, and I think that is the better choice...disregarding what I may have written for fic in the past).
I could even talk about how his mannerisms and vocabulary are mimicking Oz more and more in his own narration (is it similar souls and too much time spent with Oz in his head? Or is it the merge they're both desperately fighting off?)
But what I can't get over is that they really did just have that wide-shot of Oscar backlit by the orange of the rising sun. Orange...his color, not Oz's. And the sun, his half of the dichotomy he's been blatantly sharing with Ruby for a while now. Also, the sunrise, a common rhetoric for new hopes and the promises of better tomorrows (and the other character to share the sunrise in the epilogue being Qrow, who is actively speaking of those things).
And what I really can't get over is that at his lowest point, when the magic hits him again and we transition to Ren? The note is sunrise turns to nighttime. I know part of that is for the visual effect, but also feels symbolic that it really is Oscar's lowest point. A literal dark point, but also the time when he quite literally cannot shine. There is no sunlight at night, and now that he doesn't have his moon at his side, all he can do is fall to the ground.
My point? Rosegarden stays winning in the worst ways possible.

I like to think Ruby sewed the costumes herself. (◡‿◡✿)
And some goofy alternative outfit designs just for fun:
