I didn't watch the RT livestream, but I've heard the news.
Knowing that CRWBY is staying with the series AND that they've had talks with multiple potential partners gives me more hope than ever. I'm really happy that they're not giving up. I know nothing has been confirmed about V10 yet, but just knowing that it might happen after all makes me really happy. If they actually manage to pull it off, I will be forever indebted to them. RWBY has been a life-changing experience for me, and nothing would make me happier than to see it get the conclusion it deserves.
Today's RWBY news made me so happy I got motivated to finish this old sketch, congrats CRWBY on managing to find potential partners to continue RWBY with!
Anyway here's some Rosegarden ship art for that lazy ass canine AU I haven't touched in years. Rough collie Oscar and Irish wolfhound Ruby
Goddamn is it wild how you do a bit of speculation on how maybe Jaune and Oscar's characters could've been combined in an interesting way that would've both reduced male cast bloat and reinforced Jaune's theme of "wanting to be the hero but not being able to" by giving him a path towards it (merging with Oz) that would've, quite clearly, cost him himself by irrevocably changing who he is as a person, which at least to me is a pretty clear way of saying "this is not for you", and suddenly you're a "Jaune stan" trying to make him a bigger deal than the female leads?
Like, just... no? That wasn't my idea at all? I've been beating the "Jaune is not a main character" drum since I got into RWBY. I literally have all the RWBY/Jaune ship tags blocked because I despise fanon inflation of his character that much.
LoL, I'm just genuinely insulted to be lumped into Jaune fandom.
Dillon Goo, the founder of DillonGoo Studio and former animator on the first volumes of RWBY, is interested to acquire RWBY after the recent news of Rooster Teeth shutting down.
