salem doesn't know why ozma came back. she only knows of his task given by the god of light, that that is all ozma is there for, but at certain point it stops making sense; after the great war, there was peace, unprecedented one at that, but he did nothing with it to fulfill his "goal", all he did was ensure the safety of the relics, and then he just. . . sat on it. let the world run its course.

build your monuments to a so-called "free world", monuments salem looks forward to tearing down because to her, they stand for the return of the gods, but that is not why ozma had them built: they're beacons of hope and safe havens, keeping the world raised so that it does not face destruction, and providing shade from the unforgiving sun—from light.

at first glance, the academies are there to keep the relics far from salem's reach, but look deeper into the symbolism, and they're also clear answer from ozma to the god of light's task now that he's more informed of what achieving it actually entails:

no.

salem doesn't know why ozma came back. she sees him building monuments to so-called "free world", but in her mind they already had freedom—freedom from the gods. and ozma starts to say something ("i—"), but he never gets to finish his sentence before salem kills him.

even so, what salem considered freedom would not have been quite so for ozma; he would have continued to die and reincarnate over and over again, and every time the cost of returning to salem for their so-called freedom would have meant taking someone else's freedom away—something he didn't know would happen when he accepted the god of light's offer.

it's quite fascinating how. . . incompatible they've become, salem and ozma. salem wants a world without the gods and is willing to risk the whole world as it is now for a chance to achieve that goal. ozma cares not for the gods, whether they're on remnant or not, but he's also not willing to risk the world to be rid of his own curse that burdens him and his hosts, who have no choice in the matter. . .

why do you keep coming back?

. . .and through it all, salem still doesn't know ozma came back for her in the first place. not the gods. not the world, or the people that now inhabited it.

it was for her.

Something wholesome to atone for my sins against Arkos

Jaune: Pyrrha, May I ask you something?

Pyrrha: Yes, of course!

Jaune: *Getting down on one knee* Will you marry me?

Pyrrha: ... Jaune ... I ...

Pyrrha: *Tearing up* I can't say how much I will! You've made me happier than any other woman on the planet.

Jaune: May I slip it over your finger?

Pyrrha: *Fully crying* Yes! A hundred-THOUSAND times Yes!

Jaune: *Tries to Put the ring on* ...

Jaune: *Tries to Put the ring on again* ... It's too small.

Pyrrha: *Snrt* Heh. Haha! AHAHHAA! That's- I-

Jaune: *Kinda Bummed* Yeah! ha ... ha.

Pyrrha: Whatever! Forget the ring! I love you! We don't need anything to prove our affections of each other. I'll cherish this ring forever because you gave it to me!

I feel kind of validated by the things past Ruby said because I've never been able to articulate it properly but I was never really on board with the way it feels a lot of people view Ruby's position as a leader. Like, RWBY isn't a show that has an in universe chosen one, but it often felt like people acted like Ruby was one and that's why she would always have all the right answers and she's the only one who can lead them to victory.

And I just. Always thought it would be an incredibly boring story if no one besides Ruby got to play a role in making the choices that would lead to whatever their victory is going to look like.

With the things past Ruby said and how it's framed, it feels like they just said yeah, no, that's bad actually. Ruby thinking she always needs to have the right answers for how to save the day is bad. Ruby feeling like she has to take on the burden of the entire world by herself is bad. And she's not going to be able to move forward in a way that's healthy for her until she realizes how destructive that line of thinking is.

#Annie babbles about RWBY #rwby spoilers #Or that's how it reads to me anyways #I guess I could be wrong but we'll see at the end of the volume #I'm risking everything by posting this because I STILL don't think I can articulate it properly #Especially because I'm so tired I don't think I even managed to write down everything I was thinking about earlier today #Is this even coherent?

Jaune telling us he thinks Alyx made it back to Remnant by sacrificing Lewis to the tree.

Ruby sacrificing significant parts of herself for the others to progress.

… I do not like the dots that are connecting.

The Cat hates Jaune because he was there for years, but never broke. He got close, he was on the edge, but he played the part. He found ways to cope at least somewhat and that was enough.

I feel like we could get some really nice post-revival interactions between Penny and Blake, following up from this scene in V4. I imagine Penny could very easily end up feeling guilty about whatever her friends and family had to sacrifice in order to bring her back (especially if Pietro makes the ultimate sacrifice for her) which would be a great opportunity for Blake to remind her that just like Penny can choose to make sacrifices to help her loved ones, her loved ones can make those sacrifices in return for her, because they care about her.
