At least my scroll has a signal...

Ask a farm boy... and the hivemind possessing him [Mun: @mieswritingarchive]

[askapossessedfarmboy]

Noisy? How so?

[The alarm is sounding...]

[askapossessedfarmboy]

howd people react to finding out about. yknow. you. the whole oz thing. i hope nobody blamed anything on you...

They got over their surprise eventually....

[askapossessedfarmboy]

How’s Oz doing, Oscar? He asleep too?

"It's hard to tell sometimes. It feels like either Oz contemplating or my mind is just... a bit noisy today."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

better to get this out of the way sooner rather than later. uh...who is it today?

just cause. yknow. oz went to sleep so uh...whos in control?

"Sorry uh- for before. It had been a long day."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

"I didn't even have any dreams... that was nice."

Timeline for Ask a Possessed Farm Boy

(Note: rest of main cast were around 18 at start of series, but their birthdays are unknown, my headcannon that Oscar's a spring bday)

Blog plans below the cut!

Current plan is go have asks go through Qrow's return, Vale's destruction, and RWBY's return.

Can you check on how Oscar is doing now thats he's had a bit of time to calm down? If you still don't think it's time then maybe you should try to do something relaxing.

"I hope the body gets some good sleep tonight at least..."

[Oscar is back]

[askapossessedfarmboy]

Oz, do you really have memories of Oscar’s life? Does that mean his childhood or is it just what you’ve shared now that you’re with him?

"We tend to avoid the subject of memories."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

In all honesty, would merging really be all that bad? It might be for the greater good to have all those memories and experiences, as well as not having to worry about speeding up the merge if you use your magic.

"Now Oscar won't have to see it."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

I know a lot of heavy stuff is happening right now for you both, but is there anything that makes you both smile?

"They are interesting young men... even if Nora will sometimes chase them off for asking too many questions."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

Oz, would it feel weird if someone referred to *you* as Oscar?

"Speaking about our situation is complicated enough- adding that to the mix will not assist matters."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

Did all that happen to you, Oz? Before your death at Beacon did the voice in your head just fade away? Or was the pain just as much as now? It seemed like a much easier process during that time.

"Unfortunately… we do not choose the state of the world in the time in which the curse passes on."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

so what does it feel best for us to call you? is it weird to still be called ozpin?

[askapossessedfarmboy]

Do you expect to be called Oscar, Ozpin or something else at the end… if worst comes to worst?

"Especially from those who have a hard time… coming to terms with how much we have changed from the person they once knew."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

so how are you feeling about all of this oz? yknow you are allowed to be scared as well right?

"Everyone is too young for this- especially Oscar. It makes me wish I could do this without involving anyone else..."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

WAIT DO YOU BOTH HAVE TO SLEEP? CAN THE ONE IN THE BACK SLEEP?

"Even if our emotional states are regulated by resting, after 3 or 4 days, the body and health of the brain will be compromised. It is unknown how long humans exactly can go without sleeping, but people have died from lack of sleep. Oscar's body is still mortal."

[askapossessedfarmboy]

Why does switching speed up the merge? I imagine equal parts “body time” would be good for your souls, rather than hanging out in the back and receding into each other’s thoughts.

"Once things mix- it is hard for them to not feel like 'your' memories. They feel as real and personal as all others."
