#people are dying weiss

[constantvariations]

When there's a show that has lots of combat but little to no killing, there's usually a reason for that. I don't just mean the target audience being children (which is a stupid claim anyway, kids can handle way more shit than adults give them credit for), I mean a Watsonian explanation

Aang doesn't kill because he believes it's against his pacifist culture

Batman doesn't kill because he believes in second chances

Vash doesn't kill because it would make Rem sad

But when it comes to the rwby world, the whos and whys of killing... aren't really there?

The villains kill on-screen often, which is a given since, yknow, villains. But our heroes have never had a discussion of how far they're willing to go for their goals

It could've been established during any of the Salem talks, but instead the writers handle it with kid gloves with that Saturday morning cartoon "How do I destroy Salem?" Like, we saw a whole ass human being turned to ash, ShawLuna, you can say "kill," I promise

Due to this, I thought the dynamic was "villains kill, heroes don't," which is fairly typical for shows with this tone

And then Adam was murdered. On screen. By two of our heroes

It was genuinely jarring. There was no lead up to this kind of action, no talk of "doing whatever it takes" or "we have to prepare to do things we might live to regret." Just BAM STAB DEAD

And not even a conversation after! There's literally nothing to distinguish the before/after murder versions of Yang and Blake, which is bad! You took a whole ass man's life! Blake knew him personally! His dreams, his fears, the way he took his coffee, the whole nine yards! Even if it had to be done, that should still have a major affect! Hell, my best friend cried for hours after a bird hit the windshield on our road trip, yet these two are totally okay with ending a person

Even stranger, there has yet to be actual blood spilled by our heroes after that. Not even a skinned knee! Deaths happen around them, not because of them

You've already opened the door for the reaper, you might as well let it settle in for tea

#rwde #its no surprise they pull out the only hero murder on the face of the racism plot #they really hated adam for no reason huh #i genuinely cant tell who they enjoy writing other than blonde screenhog #but seriously tho why havent ruby or weiss spilled actual blood? they have blades ffs itd be easy as hell #or why didn't shawluna take inspiration from the disney movie and just shove adam off the cliff for the classic/cliche villain fall? #is it bc neo came back? did they have to implement the horror rule of 'if there aint a body they aint dead' #it just feels so weird how murder is handled here #or harming people in general #easiest case in point: the narrative surrounding the dismemberment of yang vs tyrian #its more evidence that these writers have protagonist based morals rather than a solid foundation of anything in remnant #which given how they are irl... is it really a surprise? #ugh why did a show w such amazing potential get trapped in the hands of clowns im dying squirtle

How do you get Bruce Wayne out of your life?

@abysskeeper Probably impossible for MY life, and equally impossible for the protagonist of this piece. AKA Weiss Schnee from RWBY.

I WILL make Icebat a real ship. And i WILL write a fic for it. Weiss Schnee/Bruce Wayne will be real. It IS real, as far as I'm concerned.

My whole premise for this is focusing first on Weiss' backstory and character (and how she is going to be for the DC Universe), since she's the most unique change I'm looking to make in the typical Batman mythos.

So I've inserted the Schnees as manufacturers and socialites in Gotham who were not one of the founding families, but still are known as old money and very well-established. (I do this so they can be inserted easily into the Court of Owls as members)

Weiss doesn't know the dark side of her family, but she has sniffed into things enough to know that she doesn't want to remain close to them, and that she envisions a very different life for herself. (I am undecided on if Winter escaped through the military like RWBY, or if she met a darker end at the hands of the Court--perhaps even being a Talon).

Regardless, Weiss basically disgraces herself as she rejects being the heir (which unknowingly saves her from being forced into the Court). Since she knows nothing, she isn't worth killing, and is merely a major disappointment, and is effectively blacklisted from all high society and business in Gotham.

She decides to try to use her voice, one of the only things she truly has left, to make her new life. She gets a few small jobs at bars and is able to sing for entertainment. Eventually, though, she ends up gaining the attention of Oswald Cobblepot. He knew her from both reputation and high society (when he himself was more permitted among the noncriminal elements), and he invites her to come under his employ at the Iceberg Lounge. He is still a known criminal, spending time in and out of Blackgate Prison, but he does have enough above-the-radar business that Weiss is willing to say yes. It helps that her situation is desperate.

So, she becomes the Ice Queen of the Iceberg Lounge. Bruce Wayne, who knew her from socialite life, is alarmed to learn she is now working for the Penguin, and is concerned that this girl he knew as a somewhat friend is possibly getting pulled down a bad path. He meets her, offers to help her himself, help she rejects. She is well aware how her family has been blacklisted, and she refuses to let that negatively affect Bruce or Wayne Enterprises. (Penguin, of course, is already blacklisted from such legitimate business himself--he loses nothing by employing her, and he actually *gains* a way to snub the high society life that has rejected him from even before he became a criminal).

Bruce still tries to help, to convince her to be somewhere else. She continues to resist, determined to make her own way, and to not make others suffer for her own dream of independence. That's where the story begins.

Eventually, Weiss will gain ice superpowers and become a vigilante, but that's a whole other part of the story. Also of note is that this takes place during the Jason Robin era, although I do think the story would continue beyond that as well, it just starts there.

Anyways, a scene, I've probably shown this one before to you, but the first time she runs into Batman and Robin is in the Iceberg Lounge, by accident (they are breaking in lmao):

also a bit i quite like, from Bruce talking to her:

#shitpost #also of note is that other than her family I don't really intend to include other RWBY characters #like this is just inserting Weiss and the people who are required for her existence into the DC Universe #and I think I would want to focus on DC characters. I guess my opinion could change #but I just don't want my story to get too bloated or have some huge scope #I just basically want to re-envision the Batman timeline with the inclusion of Weiss #kinda throwing her into the Batfam as ultimately a love interest for Bruce #But it would be slow burn and like. Some sparks are there from the start but it would take forever for anything to happen #A friendship and like. Working relationship has to happen first esp as Weiss becomes a vigilante #which she does out of again her wish to be free and also just #wanting to be able to use what she has gained (by almost dying) to save others #man i think about this AU too much #IVE PUT A LOT OF WORK INTO THINKING ABOUT IT... AND I LIKE IT A LOT OKAY #long post sorry lmao

About your jaune scars art piece, do you think jaune flinches back when someone touches his scars?

Sadly, no. Sad for Jaune, because the angst is actually still there but for a different reason

More like everyone else flinches when they touch his scars. I Uno reverse carded you, but you’ll see why

Jaune doesn’t flinch when people touch his scars because for him they’ve been there for years, decades even for some of them. His arms looked slightly different, his body differently toned, but the scars are still the same. He’s used to them by now

His friends, however, very much aren’t

For them, every scar is a mark of how long he was there, how long he was alone, how much he went through

Jaune has so much Aura, how many times did he have to come close to dying to sustain this many scar-leaving injuries? How many near-death experiences did he have ALONE, with nobody but paper stars to hold him through the recovery process?

How many of the scars are self-inflicted? How many are from him throwing himself in harm’s way, not worrying if he lives or dies? How many injuries did he leave unhealed, leaving his health and safety to the wayside without someone to bring him back down to earth?

He’s covered in scars like cracks in a statue. His body is just as shattered as his soul and mind

Jaune doesn’t know what the big deal is

Of course he has scars, he was there for decades. Weiss has a scar over her eye, Blake has one on her stomach. Yang is missing an arm, and Nora has lightning burns over her whole body

A few cuts and scrapes are an occupational hazard. He was able to patch himself up… well enough, anyway

They don’t know how to explain to him that he shouldn’t have had to. They don’t know how to explain that they’re mourning the years he lost. They don’t know how to explain that he is worth more to them than the blood he shed in their absence

So yes, they flinch when they catch sight of stark white lines curling from under his shirt sleeves, when they glimpse burns in the shape of cat claws when he’s pulling on his shirt, when his snowy locks catch the light over his too-young-too-old eyes

He’s a hero, as he always wanted. An inspiration to millions across Remnant. He’s the Rusted Knight

His friends just hate that “The Rusted Knight” almost cost them Jaune Arc

i remember playing Summer Rose Court for the 1st time and doing the Whiterose Route without Weiss dying and then later while scrolling down the itch.io blog reading about people going “HOW TO STOP WEISS FROM DYING.” “STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE ON HOW TO GET THE WEISS ENDING” “I CANT FINISH THE WHITEROSE ROUTE WEISS DIED :(((((“

and huh. the surprise i felt when i learned that SER WEISS SCHNEE COULD HAVE DIED. AND I SOMEHOW GOT THE HARD ENDING WHERE SHE DOESNT? epic gamer moment that one

#maybe i should replay summer rose court… #summer rose court #rwby #weiss schnee #whiterose

[pyxilatezero]

Need I say more?

I think the people, objectively, have spoken.

if I were to add in my opinion you’d see that I contributed a few fanfics to the mix

Main reason for my dislike of White Knight: I hate Jaune and Weiss is my favorite character, so I think she deserves better. I know some people won’t say this is a valid reason but Jaune originally and currently isn’t written very well. You basically have to give him his own episode to flush out his plot line, (like in the first season and every season afterwards where he’s important) and he’s not a main character so he takes up screen time. (They do the same with Oscar and the rest of JNPR Instead of doing a JNPR episode, they do each of them individually with sprinkles of plot in between) Honestly, a relationship between him and Weiss would be a bad idea. Case in point:

Volume 1 White-knight Moments:

Jaune unsuccessfully flirting with Weiss (+1)

Volume 2 White-knight Moments:

Jaune unsuccessfully flirting with Weiss (+1)

Volume 3 White-knight moments:

… PYRRHA! (-1)

Volume 4 White-knight moments:

… (No interaction; no points awarded or deducted)

Volume 5 White-knight moments:

Jaune does a common courtesy and saves Weiss’s life (does not count; he would react the same for anybody- ‘nO hE wOULdn’T’ shut up Victoria if any of your friends were dying you’d save their life) [+0.5]

Volume 6 White-knight moments:

…

Volume 7 White-knight moments:

…

Volume 8 White-knight moments:

…

Volume 9 White-knight moments:

Weiss admires Jaune over the fact that he’s mature, and supports him like a good friend after Ruby runs away. He reverts to his old form, and we never hear from them again. (+2)

Total score: 3.5/9 (trying to be generous, I really am)

Main reason for liking Whiterose: Enemies to friends to lovers is an adorable trope, and they get a lot of screen time together in the first few seasons. Also, Monty himself shipped them. While I won’t say Whiterose is objectively better than White Knight, I am going to say that when I include my own opinion, it is better. Weiss and Ruby’s relationship feels more like a slow burn than Yang and Blake’s. We get scenes that could be interpreted that way in almost every season since Volume one. Let me go through them, and to show how unfair this is, I’m not allowed to add more than 1.5 points:

Volume 1 Whiterose Moments

Ruby and Weiss are off to a rocky start, but slowly warm up to each other as time goes on, and they get closer. They have a mildly, could-be considered romantic moment where Weiss makes Ruby coffee so she can stay up to study. (+1)

Volume 2 Whiterose Moments

In the food fight, Ruby dramatically catches Weiss when she falls and pretends to cry over her. (Not really much, but it’s something). Ruby and Weiss consistently pair up to get things done throughout the season, especially when looking into information about Cinder. (+1)

Volume 3 Whiterose Moments:

Supporting each other when Winter gets there (that is Volume 3, right?), excellent teamwork in the first stage of the Amity Arena battle, and Weiss’s concern for Ruby when she disappears. (+1)

Volume 4 Whiterose Moments:

Thinks about each other, but otherwise, nothing. (No points awarded or deducted)

Volume 5 Whiterose Moments:

Weiss remember’s Ruby’s coffee taste. While this could be something any friend does, they spend time together, reflecting over beacon, and Weiss helps Ruby’s sister Yang through an implication that she’s doing it for team RWBY, but especially their eccentric fluffball of a leader. (+1.5)

Volume 6 Whiterose Moments:

Ruby saves Weiss on the train, Weiss saves Ruby in the battle against the mech, and they spend time together in the village with the grim. I should give two points here but I’m loyal to my word. (+1.5)

Volume 7 Whiterose Moments:

Ruby and Weiss sitting together during training, and Weiss supporting Ruby when the team splits up. (+0.5)

Volume 8 Whiterose Moments:

Supporting each other all throughout the volume by working together, and acting as teammates and partners. (+0.5)

Volume 9 Whiterose Moments:

Ruby supports Weiss after her being upset about the fall of Atlas. (Jaune’s interaction with Weiss, -1 point- would have been two, though)

6/9

In any scenario, Whiterose wins. Im sure other people could come up with reasons to disprove me, or say I’m biased (I am, this is in no way objective), but these are the things I saw with my own eight eyes because I own three pairs of glasses, and heard with my (admittedly failing) teenage ears.

I’m sure I’ll get flak for this from both sides of the shipping community, because admittedly, the RWBY fandom can be toxic (but it’s almost any fandom at that point) saying I either graded White Knight too harshly or I gave too many or too few points to Whiterose, and I also did all of this off the top of my head, so I apologize for my many mistakes. I have two last statements:

Rosegarden: 0/9

Oscar is 14 and Ruby is 17. If I, the same age as Oscar as of 2023, would not date Ruby at that time, it’s probably wrong. When it comes to relationships for younger people, it’s best to avoid age gaps larger than 2 years. It’s also best to avoid relationships altogether until you can at least go for a learner’s permit. I rest my case.

edit 3: alright, some people have corrected me on the age part, apparently he’s fifteen. I don’t hate Rosegarden, but something about Ozpin and Oscar being the same person makes me really uncomfortable (again, as someone who is younger). Thats the only reason I didn’t give it any rating- it just feels too close to, well… I don’t really have to say it. Especially when the whole point of things is that Oscar and Ozpin are becoming the same person.

Bumblebee: 8/9

It’s canon, bro. It does feel slightly forced at times, but they’re a strong couple who supports each other and helps each other through trauma. You go girls, lesbians all the way (insert lesbian pride flag here)

edit: got someone sending in a message about neither ever going to be canon. You’re right, but thank you so much for crushing a high schooler’s hopes and dreams. Have a nice day

edit 2: I prefer icerose over whiterose but I’ll get what I can take (canon ruby x ice Queendom Weiss). This is just an overall argument.

Okay, how about another funny/sad one-shot? (Blame VOL. 9 for my muse swings)

One where Jaune’s semblance isn’t about healing/amping people with aura, but that he can only numb and take away their pain?

Of course it starts off all silly with Nora “pimping” Jaune out as a walking Icy-Hot Patch and raking in cash, but then things slowly get serious.

Students haggling/bribing Jaune for a quick & easy fix to deal with their depression, despite how uncomfortable it makes him. Professional hunters looking for Jaune after their missions go wrong because he can keep their friends stabilized.

And worst of all...the children’s hospitals.

Because Jaune KNOWS why the staff – why so many parents – NEED him there…

And so he does.

Because children, especially DYING children, shouldn’t have to suffer if Jaune can help it…

And when things get too hard, too REAL, for Jaune to continue?

Teams JNPR & RWBY are waiting right there willing to pick up the pieces that Jaune’s too weak to carry.

FEELS SO NUMB

"Jaune's home~!"

Jaune trudged into his room after a long day at his part-time job. Nora excitedly skipped next to him as he put his backpack down. She smiled at him. He couldn't muster the strength to smile back. He made his way into the bathroom, not even saying hello to his team.

"So... how much money do you think he made?"

"Nora." Ren chided.

"What? I'm just curious how my plan turned out."

"You mean how you were selling Jaune off as a local anesthetic to the highest bidder?" Pyrrha said, glaring from her desk.

"Hey, it's not my fault his semblance is literally a painkiller!" She put a finger to her chin. "Kinda surprised we didn't notice sooner, since he was always getting back up from Cardin's beating after he unlocked it."

"Well, I'm more surprised how you found him work outside the school." Ren said. "And with the approval of Professor Ozpin too."

"Well, I'm a bit of a businesswoman, Renny," she winked, "you knew that~!"

A knock came at the door. Ren opened it to find Ruby standing with a scowl on her face. "Is Jaune here?"

"He's in the bathroom." Ren answered. "Is there something we can help you with?"

"Yang and Weiss are fighting, and we were hoping he could-"

"It doesn't work that way, and you know it." Pyrrha said in a near snarl.

"S-Sorry, but Blake and I don't know what to do!" She rubbed her arm. "It's like ever since Jaune's been... uh, helping out, everyone at school has been acting really, really angry. It's like unless Jaune uses his semblance, people can't act normally around here anymore."

"Well, he's busy cleaning off from his super important job today!" Nora said with a beaming smile. "And they paid a mint, too!"

"Really?" Ruby asked. "Was it Uncle Qrow again?"

"Nah, he already came by yesterday. Today he was working at Vale General!"

"The hospital?" Ren asked. "What would they need him for?"

"Something about feet or another." Nora shrugged. "Like, something about pedal tricks."

The room was dead silent, save for the sounds of the shower in the bathroom. There was a soft thumping inside, too, but that subsided to silence once more after a few seconds. Suddenly, the room seemed to bend and wave and creak. Pyrrha stood from her desk.

"Pediatrics?" She asked.

"Yeah, that's it!" Nora shouted. "It was kinda weird sounding, but after they said it was for kids and cars in jeans, I kinda just went with it. Must have been mental hospital, righ-"

"JAUNE! JAUNE, OPEN THIS DOOR!" Pyrrha screamed as she smashed her fist against the door, Ruby running up to join her. The smaller of the two tried jiggle the door handle to open.

"Nora..." Ren gulped. "Do you know what carcinogenesis means?"

"...No, but that sounds like what the hospital people wanted Jaune for."

Ren took a deep breath, then told her. Pyrrha and Ruby were shoved out of the way, and the bathroom door came crashing down. Jaune was curled under the running water, softly sobbing. On the shower wall, a red smear stained the tiles. They pulled him out of the water, wrapping him in a towel, but he didn't respond to any of it. He just continued to sob and rub himself in a sort of self-hug.

"They'll be okay. They'll be okay. They'll be okay."

The Volume 10 we probably would have gotten (co-written by @jacscorner)

Penny: Ruby!

Ruby: PENNY?! Wait, you're back a THIRD time?!

Penny: That I am, Ruby! And I'm sure I'll be here as a permanent member of the-oop, there's a sword in my chest. Guess I'm dying again.

Ruby; But we didn't even get you for a whole episode!

Penny: X_X

Ruby: What the fuck?!

Cinder: lol, get wrecked, scrub.

Ruby: *starts charging her Silver Eyes:tm:*

Cinder: Oh shit, wait a minute!

---

Jaune: Ruby, are you okay?!

Ruby: *has an eyepatch* Well, I'm alive. That's something.

Jaune: This is all my fault. I shouldn't have left you alone to get milk.

Ruby: It's okay, Jaune. We're Huntsmen. This is just part of the-

Jaune: It's just like Pyrrha. And Penny. And the Paper People. I'm always letting people down when they need me most.

Ruby: Uh, Jaune?

Jaune: It seems like I can't do anything right. I feel so useless and weak, but I know that I have to keep going. Or else all of their sacrifices will have been in vain. And I-

Ruby: Hey, uh, can I have some of that angst?

Jaune: No! This is my big defining character moment for this Volume!

Ruby: It's MY eye that was gouged out!

Jaune: And if I was a better tactician, I would've known this would have happened and I would've been there to make sure this never would have happened.

Ruby: How long is this going to go on for?

Jaune: 10 episodes.

Ruby: ...This is a fucking 13 episode season. And we're on episode 2.

Jaune: Yeah, I've got a lot to get through.

---

Yang: Ugh, I'm sick of walking around this sand bowl. It's flat and immense and th eheat is intense. This fucking sucks. Why are we even here?!

Blake: I guess this is our...just deserts.

Yang: ...

Blake: :3

Yang: ...That wasn't funny.

Blake: But it was a pun!

Yang: Yeah? And it wasn't funny.

Blake: ...It's like I don't even know you anymore...

Jaune: I can't believe we're falling apart. All of our years of friendship and teamwork, now becoming undone in a single instant. It all feels so pointless to keep going-

Blake: What is he doing?

Yang: I think he's angsting.

Blake: In the middle of our relationship drama?!

Ruby: Welcome to my world. *is on her scroll*

~~~

Weiss: ...

Weiss: Oh wow, I'm not getting ruined in this Volume. Yes! Everything's coming up Weiss! Ice Queendom part duex, bitches!

Weiss: *slips on a banana peel* OH COME ON! Why are there banana peels in the desert?!

Yang: Ha! Classic Weiss~

Blake: #Failwife

Weiss: NO!

This tweet so excellently demonstrates the types of narratives Israel and Israelis are openly pushing, without remorse or hesitation. It's one of the most overt expressions of a supremacist, racist ideology and too many of these people don't even try to hide, let alone feel ashamed for.

One problem Israel keeps running into is how the institutionalized dehumanization of Palestinians which keeps the apartheid state operational also causes Israelis to say things that non-Israelis will find extremely shocking, which hurts Israel’s PR interests.

We saw this illustrated in a recent New Yorker interview with Daniella Weiss, a leader of the push to build illegal Israeli settlements on Palestinian land. Weiss stated frankly and unapologetically that she supports apartheid, that she doesn’t believe Palestinians should have any sovereignty anywhere, that she doesn’t believe Palestinians should have voting rights, that she wants the population of Gaza to be replaced by Israeli settlements, and that she is untroubled by the killing of children in Gaza because she feels it’s being done in the interests of Israeli children.

Asked where the Palestinians in Gaza should go, Weiss replied, “To Sinai, to Egypt, to Turkey.” When the interviewer said the Palestinians are not Egyptian or Turkish, she contended that “The Ukrainians are not French, but when the war started they went to many countries.”

To the question “When you see Palestinian children dying, what’s your emotional reaction as a human being?”, Weiss answered, “I go by a very basic human law of nature. My children are prior to the children of the enemy, period. They are first. My children are first.”

Asked if she believes human rights are not universal and should not apply equally to everyone, Weiss replied “That’s right.”

But perhaps the most revealing statement Weiss made was her entirely truthful explanation of what drives the Israeli push to colonize Palestinian land:

“In Israel, there’s a lot of support for settlements, and this is why there have been right-wing governments for so many years. The world, especially the United States, thinks there is an option for a Palestinian state, and, if we continue to build communities, then we block the option for a Palestinian state. We want to close the option for a Palestinian state, and the world wants to leave the option open. It’s a very simple thing to understand.”

That one paragraph right there will teach you more about the present-day realities of the Israel-Palestine conflict than an entire year of watching CNN. It’s horrid, and it’s jarring to hear it spoken out loud in a favorable way… but it’s true.

This sort of thing has been happening for years. Israelis who’ve been marinating in a self-validating echo chamber of Zionist ideology which dehumanizes Palestinians and normalizes oppression and abuse don’t think twice about saying things that make Israel look bad on the world stage, because to them it’s just the standard status quo way of looking at things.

In 2021 a settler from New York named Yaakov Fauci made headlines around the world with his candid statements to a Palestinian family whose Sheikh Jarrah home he was squatting in.

Fauci, apparently fully aware that he was being filmed, famously replied to the family’s complaints that he was stealing their home by shamelessly telling them, “If I don’t steal it, someone else will steal it.”

And the thing is, he wasn’t lying. He was truthfully describing an abusive dynamic in apartheid Israel where Palestinians are being forced out of their homes in order to control ethnic demographics and advance the agenda outlined above by Daniella Weiss. If he’d been a trained propagandist for the Israeli state he never would have made such comments on camera, but because he was just a Zionism-indocrinated member of the Israeli public he saw no reason to hold his tongue.

Some years ago The Empire Files’ Abby Martin put together a devastating critique of the Zionist ideology just by going around the streets of Jerusalem with a camera and a microphone and talking to Jewish Israelis about their views on Palestinians. Over and over and over again they shared their support for tyranny, murder, genocide and ethnic cleansing in their own words and without hesitation, never thinking that their words could be used to harm Israel’s image, because to them these were just normal things that they said all the time in their day to day life.

You see the same sort of thing when Israelis are filmed sitting in lawn chairs to watch and cheer IDF bombing operations on Palestinian neighborhoods, during which a woman once told the press “I’m just a little bit fascist” after advocating the total destruction of Gaza City.

Every time this happens it sends viral video footage around the internet and does real damage to the world’s perception of Israel. That’s a big part of why Israel is struggling to control the narrative about the Gaza massacre today, which is in turn being exacerbated by more incendiary statements by Israelis, not just from the general public but from within the Israeli government itself.

On Saturday Israeli security cabinet member and Agriculture Minister Avi Dichter casually referred to the violent forced expulsion of Palestinians from the northern half of the Gaza Strip as “Nakba 2023”, a reference to the violent forced expulsion which was inflicted on Palestinians at the establishment of the Israeli state in 1948.

Haaretz reports:

Israeli security cabinet member and Agriculture Minister Avi Dichter (Likud) was asked in a news interview on Saturday whether the images of northern Gaza Strip residents evacuating south on the IDF’s orders are comparable to images of the Nakba. He replied: “We are now rolling out the Gaza Nakba. From an operational point of view, there is no way to wage a war — as the IDF seeks to do in Gaza — with masses between the tanks and the soldiers.”

When asked again whether this was the “Gaza Nakba”, Dichter — a member of the security cabinet and former Shin Bet director — said “Gaza Nakba 2023. That’s how it’ll end.”

When later asked if this means Gaza City residents won’t be allowed to return, he replied: “I don’t know how it’ll end up happening since Gaza City is one-third of the Strip — half the land’s population but a third of the territory.”

Dichter’s comments are surprising not only because Israel has been publicly framing the mass displacement in Gaza as a measure taken solely to protect civilians, but also because the Israeli government has long officially denied that the Nakba ever happened, even passing laws forbidding its history to be taught in schools.

Even as western officials hasten to frame Israel’s actions as a defensive and measured response to the Hamas attack on October 7, Israeli officials have been falling all over themselves in a mad rush to make those western officials look like liars.

When talking about the Gaza assault Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made headlines by invoking the biblical nation of Amalek, whose people God instructed the Israelites to commit total genocide against. The first book of Samuel contains the instructions, “Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.”

President Isaac Herzog insinuated last month that all civilians in Gaza are legitimate military targets because they failed to overthrow Hamas, saying, “It is not true this rhetoric about civilians not being aware, not involved. It’s absolutely not true. They could have risen up. They could have fought against that evil regime which took over Gaza in a coup d’etat.”

When announcing the total siege on Gaza which would see the enclave cut off from electricity, food, water and fuel, Israeli defense minister Yoav Gallant stated that “we are fighting human animals, and we are acting accordingly.”

IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari said Israel would turn Gaza into a “city of tents” and that Israel’s “emphasis is on damage and not on accuracy” in its bombing campaign.

Dan Gillerman, Israel’s former ambassador to the UN, said last month that “I am very puzzled by the constant concern which the world is showing for the Palestinian people and is actually showing for these horrible, inhuman animals who have done the worst atrocities that this century has seen.”

“Hamas became ISIS and the citizens of Gaza are celebrating instead of being horrified,” The Economist cites an Israeli general saying last month. “Human beasts are dealt with accordingly.”

“Creating a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza is a necessary means to achieve the goal,” a major general named Giora Eiland wrote in an Israeli newspaper, adding, “Gaza will become a place where no human being can exist.”

Israel’s allies keep trying to portray it as a rational actor and a positive force in the world, but if you listen to Israelis themselves you get a very different understanding of what this murderous apartheid state is actually about.

As Maya Angelou said, when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.

_____ (End of tweet)

Note this part:

“Creating a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza is a necessary means to achieve the goal,” a major general named Giora Eiland wrote in an Israeli newspaper, adding, “Gaza will become a place where no human being can exist.”

But then you hear Israeli officials deny that there even is a humanitarian crisis, live on US and UK television, multiple times. This is all planned and with intent, and such intent, in my opinion, meets the criteria of intent for a genocide or at the very least ethnic cleansing. Those are crimes against humanity.

The RWBY team and Jaune were in Nevermore made by the Glyphs of Weiss.

Thanks to the Semblante Jaune, Weiss's Nevermore was twice as big to support the weight of the five.

They were approaching the walls of the city of Vacuo.

Ruby was more excited than ever to see Atlas's ships.

But when she got closer, she saw far fewer ships than she had in Atlas' kingdom.

Weiss: It looks like we have a reception waiting for us

Jaune: I'm not so sure

Nevermore dived.

In front of the city gates stood Qrow, Winter, Robyn, Oscar where most of his hair was white, Theodore was also present.

Nevermore landed on the ground, Ruby ran off in the direction of her dear uncle.

Ruby: UNCLE QROW!

Like a bullet, she ran out to hug her uncle. Qrow opened his arms to welcome his niece, tears falling from his eyes with happiness.

Yang ran to his dear uncle, Weiss ran to hug his dear sister.

Blake thought something was wrong, she looked back and saw Jaune with his hands in his pockets looking back.

Her cat ears heard a noise.

They were surrounding, Vacuo soldiers had their guns pointed at Team RWBY and Jaune.

Blake: Why are they pointing guns at us?

Blake and Yang and Weiss and Ruby drew their weapons.

Weiss: Winter tells them to put down their guns!

Winter: I'm not in command, Weiss

Weiss was surprised.

???: So those responsible for the destruction of Atlas are here in my kingdom

Weiss: YOU!!!

Weiss pointed Myrtenaster at the woman who had just arrived.

Winter: Weiss put down his weapon

Weiss: You've forgotten who she is, sister! Killer number Atlas is in front of us

???: Young lady, you don't have any authority, I'm the authority

Ruby: Who is she?

Weiss: Eula Lawrence, she's the biggest murderer and traitor in Atlas!

Eula: And current ruler of Vacuo

Weiss: WHAT!!!!

Eula: Arrest them and throw them in jail, we'll hold the tribunal to convict those responsible for the fall of Atlas in a week's time

Ruby: We save Atlas...

Eula: Being "saved" means destroying an inner kingdom and losing a small percentage of its population. So, you saved a lot of people! So much so that we have several Atlas scientists and engineers missing or lost

Jaune: They're all dead Eula

Everyone looked at Jaune, who had his head down.

Eula: Are you sure

Jaune pulled his scroll out of his trouser pocket and threw it to Eula.

Jaune: Here's a list of the names of almost all the missing people, some of whom I couldn't find.

Ruby: Jaune what are you talking about

Jaune: The water in that place was acidic Ruby

Everyone kept quiet.

Ruby: what?

Jaune: The sea water there was acidic. For anyone without an awakened aura or with little aura is asking to die. You certainly don't explore that place much, do you?

Blake: No

Jaune: So you were unaware of the many dangers that this place holds. I don't think you've all been underground in that place

Jaune took his left hand out of his pocket and stared at it with a sad expression, then he closed his hand tightly.

Jaune: I tried to save people from Atlas but I didn't succeed either time Eula, I'm sorry

Eula: No need Jaune, I know very well what happened in Atlas was your idea

Weiss: Did you two know each other?

Jaune: Of course, after all, she's my girlfriend

Everyone's mouth dropped. Everyone was shocked.

Weiss's soul left his body.

Yang: WHEN! HOW! You caught a big fish

Jaune: On that mission, it was just me and a few other soldiers who ended up dying in the storm.

Eula: For the first time, someone in Atlas gave me a real duel. He's worthy of being my man

Jaune: Ruby surrenders

Ruby: BUT!

Jaune: There's nothing you can do to stop it, Atlas was destroyed as a result of your plan, the idea of evacuating Atlas using the staff was also your idea. You indirectly have blood on your hands

Ruby was frustrated.

Jaune: Eula is very honorable, she will let you have a fair trial so you don't have to worry

Ruby accepted, even though she didn't want to. The RWBY team was arrested, Qrow and the others followed the guards.

X

Jaune and Eula were in her office.

Eula: So Jaune, I don't know what you've been through but I know you're much older, so do you have anything important to share?

Jaune: Yeah, I have many important things

His eyes were shining.

Jaune: Very important

I like this meme. I really like it.

But RWBY was in such a difficult situation after V9 that I wanted to finish Jaune without anyone. That he didn't stay with Ruby or Weiss.

Team RWBY+P play Lethal Company.

Ruby Rose

She doesn't get scared very easily. She enters the facility without thinking and moves as quickly and carefree as possible. She's also one of the first people to die because she doesn't fully pay attention to her surroundings.

*Landmine beeps*

Ruby watch out there's a...

BOOM!!!

Landmine.

Weiss Schnee.

She pretends that she's not scared when in reality she's absolutely terrified. Upon entering the facility she becomes very cautious and jumps at any small sound or movement.

This isn't so bad.

A few minutes later.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!

Sprinting toward the front door as quickly as possible.

Weiss come back! It's only a spider. They're not that bad.

Blake Belladonna

She's actually pretty good at the game. She's one of the only members of team RWBYP to survive each game because she knows how to deal with each monster. She knows how much each piece of loot cost and she knows how to deal with every event moon. If you listen to her you're more likely to survive each run.

Yang there's a loot book headed your way. Be careful. It will attack you if you're carrying anything in your hands.

Yang pulls out a shovel.

Let him fucking try.

Yang Xiao Long

She also knows how to play the game but she's really only interested in killing the monsters. Which leads to her dying a lot.

Let him fucking try.

Loot bug goes into attack mode.

C'mon you piece of...

Dies

Penny Polendina

She's the noob. She knows nothing. She spends most of her time trying to be friends with the monsters. She dies first every time.

Hello Mr Bracken. It is a pleasure to meet you.

*neck snapping sounds*

Blake sighs.

Is anybody still alive?

Checks computer.

Oh Weiss is headed back now.

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

Weiss jumps in through the door.

Take off!

Blake sighs again and pulls the lever.

Note: I'm going to do team JNPR+O next.

[nerdlydelicious]

So, I have some thoughts about Jaune’s situation and what that means for his character going forward.

First, shipping. I’ve made no secret of the fact that White Knight is hands down my favorite RWBY ship. Does his new age and the gap in years between him and Weiss, or any other character who was previously in his age range, change that for me?

For two reasons.

1: Weiss is a grown woman with a literal license to kill. If she makes the personal choice to pursue romance with Jaune despite his older age, I don’t think there’s a problem with that. If she’s old enough to be a licensed huntress and fight monsters that want to murder all of human and faunus kind, then she’s old enough choose to date Jaune, DILF status or no. The same is true for any of the other girls on team RWBY, or anyone else who was around his age when he fell in the Ever After.

Now, how Jaune might feel about that in this hypothetical situation with their ages is another matter entirely. Though with everything else he’s been through and had to deal with since V8’s finale, I imagine his current age wouldn’t be his biggest hurdle to pursuing a relationship with Weiss, or whoever else.

2: I seriously doubt Jaune’s going to stay at this age when they leave the Ever After. The Ever After is full of all kinds of magic. If there’s a way to grow and shrink people, then it’s not a stretch to think that there’s magic that can revert Jaune’s physical age to what he was when he entered the Ever After. So it’s not a big concern for me.

That and if Jaune does remain in his DILF form then that just means Weiss will have competition in the form of Willow.

Second: the possibility of Jaune dying this volume. I don’t see it happening, at least not right now. I know a lot of people are worried about that, but I don’t think that’s going to be his fate. Jaune is, at this point, a main character. He has a lot more to do in the story and they aren’t going to throw him away like that. If Jaune dies, then it’s going to be at the hands of Cinder in a climatic final battle for the fate of Remnant. Preferably while taking her with him.

Third: the theory that Jaune can’t or won’t leave the Ever After. A lot of my thoughts on this tie into my thoughts on why Jaune isn’t going to die this volume. Jaune’s clearly been in the Ever After for a long time, but it’s not because he can’t leave. It’s because he wasn’t going to leave without team RWBY. He’s stayed in the Ever After this long because he was waiting for them. Even if he didn’t know for sure that they would arrive or that he would find them, he wouldn’t take the risk of leaving and potentially abandoning them. And likewise, he isn’t going to stay in the Ever After when he had friends and family back on Remnant, which is still currently in grave danger of being destroyed by Salem.

So yeah, those are some of my thoughts on Jaune’s ‘fate’ going forward. I don’t think he’s going to die or refuse to go back to Remnant, and he’s still perfectly shippable. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. They’re just jealous that he’s a certifiable DILF now.

The DILF knight, if you will. I mean, just look at him…

Hubba hubba…

"Blake, are your parents dating my mom?"

"...Meow."

@min3nc's post about Snowleopard ripped open the Pandora Box that is some of my headcanons about this throuple (and the subsequent Bellaschneeblings interactions in my post here) so sit tight y'all this list is gonna be long because I absolutely adore this healthy bi4bi4bi poly pilf couple that foils whatever the fuck Divorce Mcgees Summer, Raven, n Tai had going on (don't get me wrong, I adore str-crossed lovers, especially whatever the fuck Rosebird had, but cmon you could power a small nation off of their Divorce Energy alone)

-They have zero in-canon interactions but the thought of Willow slowly healing and learning to love again from two characters shown to be incredibly sweet and patient and understanding and oh so gentle and tender and earnest? Guys this alone should sell you on the ship like!! LIKE!!!

-WILLOW HEALING FROM HER ABUSIVE MARRIAGE TRAUMA WITH THE HEALTHIEST COUPLE!! GHIRA AND KALI TAG TEAMING TO VALIDATE AND SMOTHER THE SHIT OUTTA THIS ENDEARING MILF WITH SO MUCH LOVE AND SUPPORT!!!

-Takes a deep breath. Wowie. Do y'all get it though do y'all understand the vision?

-I need me vulnerable Willow asking the Pilfadonnas fer parenting advice and the pair to be more than happy to help their girlfriend just so eager to help!! They're so reassuring and tender with her, making sure she doesn't feel like a terrible shit fer asking fer help about this like, "Oh, oh sweetheart. You've been through so much, and it's a good thing you're fighting fer your second chance to be the mother your children need and deserve. It's alright, darling, we're right here with you."

-Furthermore, Willow would feel so much guilt eating at her for her ex-husband's crimes against the Faunus as a whole and the Pilfadonnas, the leaders of the Faunus themselves, would help talk through her guilt and affirm that Willow is not to blame fer bullshit Jacques pulled and help her with the process of finding a good therapist like like like!!! There's so much shit here guys!!!

-"It was by marrying me that Jacques gained access to the resources tied to the Schnee name and carved out the world. I didn't do anything to stand up to him and stop him from ruining my family's name, and so by doing nothing I'm a part of his sins."

"....Babygirl we love you so much but there's SO MUCH wrong to unpack here."

-Also Willow deserves to be bisexually panicked by two hot cat people bc I said so she just deserves okay trust trust trust

-Anyways, the Schneeblings are mad sus of the Pilfadonnas at first because they ALLLLL know what kinda abusive bullcrap their mom went through in her dead marriage with Jackass Schnee but all eventually coming around to really love Ghira's and Kali's seemingly endless unconditional love (Weiss was the quickest to adapt, then Winter, and finally little Whitley)

-The Pilfadonnas are so sweet and loving to their new kids and see 'em as their own straight up but don't pressure any typa connection and respect the Schneeblings so much like, "I would prefer just Kali, but if calling me Ms. Belladonna makes you more comfortable then go right ahead sweetheart" LIKE THEYRE JUST THE BEST STEPARENTS EVER SO MUCH VALIDATION AND PATIENCE AND SWEETNESS!!!

-"Chieftain Ghira, sir, it's good to see you."

"Winter, while I won't stop you from calling me by that title if that's what makes you the most comfortable, you don't have to be so strict with yourself. There's no need to address me like you're a military subordinate, sweetheart."

"...I would die for you, sir."

"Oh! Um! I'm very grateful for that, but, uh, let's also not huh? Wouldn't want you dying anytime soon ahahahaaa."

"You're right, sir, the Maiden powers should not be so carelessly tossed around."

".....Alright so we're going to go find you a good therapist and start working on your sense of personhood-"

-The Pilfadonnas introduce the concept of therapy and healthier coping mechanisms to all of the Schnees REALNESS

-"But OP wouldn't Weiss already have learned that from her super supportive friends?" Weiss' found family is incredible but healthy coping mechanisms are NOT part of that package deal holy shit hypertraumatized child soldiers left and righttt baby

-Anyways, one time Whitley slipped and accidentally called Ghira "Hey dad-" and everyone FROZE before Whitley rushed his question and then ran the f u c k off as Ghira started wiping tears with Kali holding him close and Willow being so emotional at the her son finally has a solid, good father figure in his life oMG HES STARTING TO ACCEPT THE PILFADONNAS!!!

-Eventually, the Schneeblings graduate to calling the Pilfadonnas just Kali and Ghira (and Blake calling Willow by her first name was already established back when she was crashing Schnee Manor in V8 so we chilling) but Whitley, oh my heart, sometimes slips with a 'mama' or 'dad' to his stepparents and down the line he even stops getting embarrassed over it and GOSH does it melt the Pilfadonnas' hearts everytime he calls 'em that it doesn't matter if it's the tenth or the hundredth time they're sosossooo soft

-One time Weiss was practicing her fencing stances and didn't realize the Pilfadonnas were watching her, and then when they started to praise how amazing her swordsmanship is? Babygirl actually starts to cry a little because it was always, "You need to be faster, Schnees aren't supposed to be so slow" and "What would your grandfather say if he saw such sloppy forms? Again!" and never, "Oh, Weiss, honey, you were wonderful out there! You must have trained very hard to be so good!"

-If you give any of the Schneeblings a fucken shred of unconditional praise they will crumple faster than a stale cookie. On a daily basis, Weiss jokes and asks Blake how the FUCK did she not end up more well-adjusted (she knows about the bullshit with Adam but Weiss also knows that Blake is aware she's just messing around)

-So we've established some headcanons of the Schneelings interacting with the Pilfadonnas, but hear me out awkward as fuck Blake and Willow interactions bc Willow has NO IDEA how to interact with her daughter's teammate turned stepdaughter???

-Because, you know, "Oh uh hey my ex-husband exploited and abused the shit out the Faunus for years on end and you were one of the people heavily affected to the point where you, as a literal child, turned to a life of vigilante terrorist justice as a form of fighting back for your own basic rights"

-Blake, like her parents, completely understand that Willow had nothing to with Jackass' cruelty and instead gives her new stepmom an easy smile and starts talking small talk about Weiss' adventures with Team RWBY and!! Yeah!! Willow genuinely wants to know what's been going on in her daughter's life since she was so absent from it during her alcoholic days

-The pair bond over a shared loved of Weiss, and at one point Willow says, "If it isn't overstepping, can I just say I am truly fortunate that Weiss has someone like you in her life to support her" and Blake chuckles softly and replies, "It wasn't easy at first, but yeah, I'm glad she's in my life too" AND ARGAGRGRHRH THE BONDINGGGG

-Speaking of bonding, imagine the Pilfadonnas vibing with Klein and bonding over tea together, and seeing their adoptive dad figure Klein vibe with their new steparents may or may not have sped up Whitley and Winter warming up to the Pilfadonnas justttt a litttttlleee

-When Kali and Ghira see their stepkids flinch at loud voices or innocently raised hands, when they notice the low self-esteem Winter still carries or Whitley's facade of maturity so that adult figures actually acknowledge him, in front of the kids they're very respectful and apologetic of accidental triggers without being patronizing, but when they're alone? Straight fucking murder in their eyes. The Pilfadonnas are fucken e n r a g e d they're fucken seething because how dare Jackass Schnee hurt these sweet kids so fucking much

-They make sure neither the Schneeblings nor Willow are around when they let out their furious vents to each other absolutely slandering Jackass' name with clenched fists and bared fangs because they don't want their anger to trigger anyone but yeahhhh. Yeah, if Jacques is still out there we're adding two bisexual cat pilfs to the waiting list fer ripping his head off

-ANYWAYS, on a lighter note, can y'all imagine the Belladonnas are vibing and purring together all comfy and shit and the Schnees see them and are like, "Shit man they're so HEALTHY and FUNCTIONAL what the HECK??"

-Blake groaning, "Dadddddd!!" when her dad pulls up with family albums to talk about his precious daughter's childhood and, "Not you too mom!!!" when Kali excitedly joins in. As Blake is play wrestling with her parents to get the photobooks away, the Schnees are just witnessing this in various levels of amused but also kinda like, "Damn wow is this what a healthy family's supposed to look like dannggg that's crazzzzzyyyyyyyy"

-Vacations to Menagerie where the Belladonnas playfully make fun of their sunburnt as all hell white family members, and even though some Faunus are wary of the visiting Schnees, others are more open to giving these guys a chance and hey!! Turns out the SDC is actually going to be a good company after the shit Jacques Schnee pulled. Imagine the healing between Faunus relations and the Schnee family name when Willow and her kids pull up to help wherever and however they can

-I'm just saying family dinners would be so healthy and healing fer Willow and her kids after years filled with so many isolated, lonely, suffocating as hell dinners when Jacques still walked these halls. Instead of stiff etiquette and barbed questions throw their way by a spiteful bitchass with a clip-on tie, there's warm laughter and jovial banter thrown about; genuine inquires about their day/interests that lead to invested conversation and freely given praise; large, beaming smiles from three dark color-schemed people who radiantly glow like the sun. It's like the Belladonnas breathed back life into the hollowed out Schnees who barely survived all the different ways jackass had hurt them, and that's just so fucken lovely to think about

Hello,

Have you ever thought of combining RWBY characters semblance’s in the bedroom. Like Ruby’s speed and Weiss’s time dilation glyph.

The fastest woman on remnant boosted to speeds that would resemble a bullettrain.

That specific example sounds dangerous lol.

I’ve loosely done this but never really made it a focus. I’ve had Weiss bind people with glyphs and I feel like somewhere on one of my accounts Yang accidentally burned the sheets. Then there’s the obvious one which is Jaune using his aura to ease pain or increase endurance.

Other than that I think most of the time I thought about it was more involuntary. I’ve definitely written Ruby petal bursting accidentally after a climax and to this day I still think that has to be such a pretty and surreal experience for her partner while Ruby is dying of embarrassment.

Also in my draft there may or may not be Sun with his clones with a certain chameleon. I may look it at somewhat often and go “what have I done?”

[bridgyrose]

Team RWBY watch a play based on their Ever After adventures. The play shows Ruby triumphantly beating Neo in the Illusion house, the latter then shown dying along with the Cat. The real Ruby then finds out the play was Neo's idea.

(Hope this gets the idea across)

“A play about our adventures in the Ever After?” Ruby practically asked as she looked over the brochure Weiss had handed her, fingers shaking as she took it. Even though it had been years since their adventure into the Ever After, the memories of everything still stuck with her. The way it seemed to mess with her, the cat almost killing her and her friends… all of it like a bad memory that didnt want to go away. “I’m not so sure this’ll be a good idea.” 

Weiss rolled her eyes and took the brochure back. “I’m sure its just going to be a retelling from what Yang and Blake told everyone else.” 

“And it would be a shame to waste free tickets,” Yang said. “So what’s the harm?” 

Ruby sighed as she looked around at her teammates. “Fine, we can go.” 

“I knew you’d come around to the idea!” Yang practically yelled out as she pulled Ruby into a hug. 

Ruby gave a weak smile as she leaned into Yang, not sure how she truly felt about the idea. There still seemed to be something off about the idea of a play of their adventures, though, at the same time, she knew everyone would tell her that it’d be a big step into getting better. Watching everything that happened without experiencing it all over would be a good way to start getting over it, even if it did still haunt her in her nightmares. 

Still, she ended up getting ready for a night out with her teammates, dressing up for the theater with Weiss fussing over her dress. Once ready, they all headed out, Ruby still nervous about the whole idea. Her heart started to pound in her chest as she swore she saw the shadow of the Curious Cat, hand reaching for her back for the weapon Blake had practically forced her to leave at home. A simple touch from Weiss helped calm her as a cat ran out of the shadows. 

“Everything will be fine,” Weiss said as she took Ruby’s hand. 

Blake nodded and gave her a smile. “The only thing you have to worry about is grimm.” 

“I-I know.” Ruby took a breath to keep herself calm as she squeezed Weiss’s hand. She followed her teammates into the theater, almost relaxing when she saw a crowd of people waiting to get seated. Under normal circumstances, a crowd like this would’ve been a nightmare, but seeing this many people at the play almost made her feel… less alone. 

It took almost an hour for everyone to get into their seats, most of everyone around was almost excited to see a story they’d read or heard unfold before their eyes. Ruby started to worry again as the theater darkened, the curtain rose on the stage, and a few lights lit up a stage to show the props that nearly brought Ruby back to the day she woke up in the Ever After. The plants and background were accurate to what she remembered, almost as if the playwright was there themselves. Then the actors came out, and while Ruby was less surprised about how accurate the costumes had been when they were younger, though seeing the costume for the actor for Little made her heart break. It was almost as if she was seeing back to when she was in the Ever After, everything meticulously made to be true to what she remembered and what she and her team took pictures of when there. 

Ruby stayed quiet as she watched the play, trying to stay calm as she practically watched someone retrace her steps. Her heart stopped as she watched the play progress to the mansion, fingers digging into the armrest as she tried to ready herself to watch her character die. She closed her eyes and looked away, waiting to hear the screams of pain when the Curious Cat attacked. 

“Get away from me!” the Ruby actor yelled out. 

Ruby slowly opened her eyes as she listened to the fight, catching out of the corner of her eye the actor playing her “killing” Neo and the cat, freezing up as she spoke under her breath. “That’s… not how it went.” 

“I think I like this ending a bit better,” Yang said as she whispered to Ruby. “A lot less panic.” 

“Yeah…” Ruby watched the rest of the play as the actors went through the door in the tree to Remnant, the lights going out and the curtain closing. As the actors came out for a bow and the audience stood up to cheer for them, she slipped away to find who wrote the play, almost annoyed that the story had been changed even slightly. It was her that had died in that mansion, not the cat or Neo, and while she should’ve been thrilled to see everything changed, it almost felt insulting. 

She finally found the playwright, putting a hand on their shoulder and pulling them towards her. “That’s not how the Ever After-” her words nearly stuck in her throat when she saw Neo’s pink eye staring at her, slowly moving her hand away. “-went. But… you know that.” 

Neo gave a small nod taking a step back from Ruby as she slowly signed. “I want people to think I died there.” 

“Why? That’s not…” Ruby let out a sigh and looked away from Neo, her own thoughts of dying coming back to her. It had all happened so quickly, feeling the cat push it’s claws deep into her, the way she lost consciousness after drinking the tea, not wanting to be herself anymore and accepting that as a hero, she was going to die sooner or later. “You’ve changed, just like I have. You dont have to let people think you’re dead to hide that.” 

Neo brushed her brown hair out of her eyes, revealing the pink eye that Ruby had caught. “Its better this way. A… a fresh start as Roman would call it.” 

“A fresh start. I guess that’s something we all need.” 

“But I hope you enjoyed the play. I need to make sure the actors arent getting overwhelmed.” 

Ruby watched as Neo hid her pink eye again and started to make her way backstage, a slow breath escaping her lips. She turned away to start walking back to her own team, more relaxed now than she’d been in a while. “Good luck on your new life, Neo. Maybe I should follow your lead.”
