Why Team RNBW End Up Stuck
It would not be a stretch to say that the situation in Atlas during Volume 8 became what it was due to Ironwood’s faction turning the issue with Mantle into an “Us-vs-Them” conflict.
This is, ultimately, theoretically, why Team RNBW work to launch Amity Tower. It’s a move that benefits the entire kingdom as a whole, and not just one city.  This is why the group that pursued the launch codes end up sequestering themselves in Schnee Mansion. Between trying to care for Nora, they only feel comfortable seeking an actions that will affect the entire kingdom. 
I also think that dealing with Ironwood’s rampant tribalism probably soured them on the idea of showing special preference to one section.
May: Which side are you on, anyway?!
Blake: We’ve heard that before
Ruby: There are no sides! We want to help everyone. We’re all facing Salem together. And together is the only way we’re going to get out of it.
The problem with this mentality is that unless an all-encompassing method is readily available, one ends up stuck not doing anything. Furthermore, if the Everyone is divided into the Haves and Have-Nots, this means the Solution That Benefits Everyone will still mean the Haves have more than the Have-Nots, something that is a major point of contention for the people of Mantle.
Of course, that’s not to say Team RNBW are wrong for wanting to help Atlas. They know that if Salem takes the Staff, the entire floating continent will come falling onto Mantle. The problem is, the situation has become such a clusterfrick that a Perfect-Answer was nothing but a pipe dream.
Ruby: It’s all just too much. [...] How do we fix all of it?
Luckily, in this dialogue, the lesson is right there.
Klein: You can't worry about fixing everything. Simply focus on what's in front of you.

Whitley: …as you know, most of my family’s wealth and assets were lost in the fall of Atlas, so moving forward things may be a bit difficult. That’s why I’ve decided to assemble a crack team of market analysts, psychologists, and inventors to develop the next big business project…
Jaune/Oscar:
Whitley: …but unfortunately, you two were all I could get.
Whitley: So, do either of you have any ideas we can market?
Oscar: Maybe…a video game…? Based on an interesting story of someone’s life?
Jaune: People’s lives are interesting! In the Ever After I was tossed into a strange world where I had to fight an unending stream of soul-hungry monsters using only rusty armor and a damaged sword, trapped in an unending cycle of endless combat in a world filled with madness, abandoned by the gods!
Oscar: …
Whitley: …
Jaune: …oh, and I forgot to mention the crushing feeling that I couldn’t protect my loved ones!
Oscar: That sounds horrible!
Whitley: …actually… 🤔

Also, Ruby and Weiss being juxtaposed with the Gods of Light and Dark. The former of each being connected via Silver Eyes, and the latter two both curiously having the power to summon Grimm.
Wonder if that’s foreshadowing anything... XD

Happy Year of the Dragon!
I was inspired to draw something with the main dragons of RWBY.
Something silly.
Tumblr media
Yang Xiao Long, the sunny little dragon, giving a sock puppet show of the tale of the Brothers, the God of Light and the God of Darkness. Maybe to Adrian Cotta-Arc in Argus during Volume 6. She used one of her own socks, and stole borrowed someone else's.

God of Darkness: You should not have come here, human. Why do you cross through my domain?
Jaune: I was on my way to the kitchen for a snack and I got lost.
God of Darkness: You ended up in the twelfth realm of torment on your way to the kitchen?
Jaune: I am not a clever man.

Do you guys think that when the Brothers return to Remnant to judge humanity Ruby should just tell them to go or that she'd call their mom /j

Touch of Gray
Jaune: *relaxing on the couch with Pyrrha, gently playing with his hair*
Jaune: …hey Pyr?
Pyrrha: *looks up from her magazine* Hmm? What is it, Jaune?
Jaune: Hypothetically, what would you think if I started going gray as I got older…?
Pyrrha: 🤔
Pyrrha’s Vision of the Future:

Guilt is something that can hurt us…
It would be late at night, Jaune would be in the leisure area that would be close to the bedrooms, he would be alone, He would get a glass of water and take it to his bedroom, In the corner of the room Penny would be ''sleeping'' and then he would sit on the bed and He would take his sleeping pills with the help of water to make it go down easier.
Jaune(Mind): Another night of trying…Another night of trying to have a peaceful night…
Jaune would fall asleep but after a few minutes he would wake up again in the same place as the incident but everything would be black and white except him, He would walk through that strange forest and even notice colorful footprints on the ground, He would follow with curiosity and enter a clearing where he would see each weapon of the people who died in the incident, Jaune would see it and try to leave the clearing but noticed that in the same place he had come there was a wall made of rose thorns.
Jaune: No…Not again!
Jaune would be on his knees and everything around him would turn black and the weapons would approach him, surrounding him, and each one would begin to glow.
Crescent Rose(Ruby): It's okay jaune! It's not your fault.
Ember celica(Yang): I hope my little sister is safe, The Grimms here don't seem as normal as in patch.
Myrtenaster(Weiss): I'm a complete failure to my family. I should have stayed in atlas…
Gambol Shroud(Blake): I hope my parents forgive me for the choices I made...
Magnhild/StormFlower: I wasn't strong enough to protect us…/It's okay, nora, you've done enough…
Miló and Akouo: I believe you will be a great hunter…
The weapons mix and it would transform into a being that would have a white fang mask that would look at Jaune who would be shaking trying not to look at the being
???: You may have heard their last words or what you were thinking, but the whole world saw that interview and saw and heard what you said, showing how you are nothing more than a coward and a complete shame for your family. You should probably be ashamed of yourself why you just don't wake up!
Jaune was woken up by Penny who was shaking his arms waking him up and he would look at him confused and she would look with concern in her eyes.
Penny: Friend Jaune, your heart rate was at an alarming level. Do you want me to call Professor Glynda?
Jaune: It's okay Penny, I just had a nightmare…
