Mmmmm been having some thoughts on Ruby and Weiss rn
Ruby is set up to be foiled to Alyx, both in the opening, trying to retrace her footsteps in her story in the first couple of episodes, picking up Alyx's knife at the blacksmith's:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tumblr media
And in the latest episode, her lashing out being met with her intepreted as being cruel and selfish:
"Like Alyx, she wasn’t just a little petulant or inconsiderate. She was selfish, cruel. Like this whole word was simply make-believe and the rules didn’t apply to her."
"What about you? It's *all* about you!"
JWBY all seem to have different ideas of who and what Alyx was. She exists to teach a moral lesson, she's just a girl trying to survive and find her way back home, she was a mean little girl, she was the villain who rewrote the story.
But then we also have this line from the book said by Oscar in V8:
"She brushed off her bumps and bruises, for nothing hurt worse than the loneliness in her chest."
And... I'm reminded of Ruby's own loneliness, how distant she feels from her own teamates and friends right now, from the pressure of expectations to always be the one with a plan, with a smile and something positive to say to inspire everyone to Keep Moving Forward, put on her by both herself and the people around her. How Weiss is mourning her kingdom, Yang and Blake get to sort their feelings out, Jaune gets to have his breakdown, to the point his own over shadows Ruby's and her feelings are dismissed. And how the way she lashes out at them was both understandable and a long time coming, but also terribly cruel and messy. And that no one can be blamed for not seeing or reaching out to Ruby more when she refuses to let others know how much she's hurting and ask for their help. Ruby is still entitled to her own feelings. So is Jaune and WBY.
Which brings to mind a certain quote shown at the beginning of a certain someone's trailer:
"Everyone is entitled to their own sorrow, for the heart has no metrics or forms of measure. And all of it... irreplaceable"
Tumblr media
Weiss's arc involves her looking outside of herself and learning to see and understand those around her, their own sorrows and burdens they carry with them. And of course, loneliness is a big reoccurring theme in Weiss's arc. Meeting her teammates and supporting them is what leads to her understanding their struggles, hence why Weiss develops from wanting to be the leader to instead dedicating herself to being the most supportive member in team RWBY, and thrives the most when she's fighting with them, but also emotionally supports them through their own struggles.
Tumblr media
She's the one who notices something's off with Blake first in V2, and gets her to open up to the rest of her team so they can all work it out together:
Tumblr media
"So, Blake Belladonna, what is wrong!?"
She supports Yang when she's confronting Raven and dealing with her abandonment issues
"It's okay if... you're not okay."
Tumblr media
Her own sense of self and relationship to loneliness is a healthy one at present, and is something she can use to relate to others.
She understands other people’s loneliness, that Blake in V5 needed space and in time she’d come back, and Weiss would be ready to be there for her when she did. And she also understands Yang’s loneliness in the same volume and that she needed someone there to support her.
“But you’re right. I don’t know loneliness like you do. I have my own version. And, I bet Blake has her own version too.” 
"When she's ready, I'll be there for her. And I know we're not as close, but... I'm here for you too."
Tumblr media
Weiss understands that no one's version of loneliness is the same, and every individual needs something different to have their feelings respected and understood. And now in V9 Weiss has to reckon and come to understand Ruby's own version of loneliness after seeing Ruby snap and how much everything has been weighing down on her, and what she needs from her as a friend and teammate.
Tumblr media
All the way back in V1, Weiss grew to accept Ruby as leader and promised to support her:
"Ruby... I think you have what it takes to be a good leader. Just know, that I am going to be the best teammate you will ever have."
And I believe she'll try to hold true to that as best she can for Ruby going forward.

The most important message from this Volume, especially the confrontation between Yang and Raven, is that strength isn’t about not being afraid. It’s about being afraid, admitting it, and still doing the thing that scares you most.

I’ve seen a lot of people interested in how Weiss and Ilia would interact, it seems like there could be some tension there given both of their backgrounds ^^; Just a silly ‘what if they suddenly met like this’ scenario I felt like doodling

#17: Heartache
In V5C5, Ruby accidentally uses Penny's catchphrase "combat ready" while trying to encourage Oscar, making herself sad in the process.

Super spoilery short fic under the cut. Playing with 2nd Person. Foxboy centric.
Your brother is dead.
The mantra hasn't left your mind for more than a minute, more than a second. You close your eyes. It replays in your mind.
Ghira Belladonna, holding the bits of his broken home up on his back.
Ghira Belladonna, ripped away.
Your brother, gone.
Your brother is dead.
How long have you feared this day? The possibility had always been there, that one day only one of you would be left behind while the  other was left to live on and...
Why did it have to be you?
You ask yourself the question, as you sit in a cell with no choice but to let the night replay in your mind. Over, and over, and over. Never ending.
Your brother is dead.
Your brother is dead, and you know how things will go. You will not be able to be there for him, when they put his body in the ground. You won't be able to keep any keepsakes from him aside from your memories. Instead, you will be forced to stay alone, locked away from the world and-
And you deserve it.
You'd had your doubts, about it. Your brother had his doubts too.
Even before things had started to change, you'd had your doubts. Adam Taurus wasn't like most members of the White Fang. He was cut from an extremist cloth in ways that you weren't and then his orders had been-
The only word you could think of to describe it was unhinged. Driven by personal grudges as opposed to what was the best for the Faunus.
And you had been willing to go along with it. Fennec had been too, because acting on behalf of your people was what was right.
But it doesn't matter, you think as you sit in your cell.
It doesn't matter and it won't matter, because your brother is dead.
If only you had been able to do more. You could have protected him, you could have kept the girl from ripping her father out from under the weight that took your brother from you. You could have done more, and if you had-
Maybe it would have been you.
But it wasn't.
Because your brother is dead.
And you blame yourself.
The guard had asked you if it was worth it, what you had done.
It wasn't.
It never would be.
Your brother is dead.
