"Knowledge and wisdom are the natural opposites of hate and ignorance, and it is through those things that we will change the world. When all else fails, riots and a bit of light arson will do perfectly fine.”

From thenitemarehunter:🍵Any tea from Barty. Shion wants to all.
@thenitemarehunter
"Any tea? Well, I'm afraid my cupboard will be quite barren. The only tea I find amenable is boba, the rest of the leaf water can go rot... oh. Not what you meant."
He clears his throat.
"I've been barred from the staff resource room. The geist which has possessed not only the automatic stapler but the xerox machine as well continues to feed on negativity and sew discord in the day to day lives of the Professors at Beacon, and yet I, the one man with the vision to see its malicious will, have been kept from dealing with the problem.
"Our kingdom will crumble, and there will be naught to blame but hubris as we walk through toner dust."
“I had a thought today that may end with Grif glaring at me, but if T-Rex’s had feathers, as some scientists now believe possible, was the T-Rex in Jurassic Park not actually a dinosaur, but, in fact, a man?”
“The raptor family is in the same situation. I’m of the opinion they’re men.”
“Jurassic Park was not about dinosaurs. It was about a girl gang rebelling under the presumptions of men.”
“I had a thought today that may end with Grif glaring at me, but if T-Rex’s had feathers, as some scientists now believe possible, was the T-Rex in Jurassic Park not actually a dinosaur, but, in fact, a man?”
“…. Fuck you, that was pretty good.”
“I thought so as well!”
🍵
"One of my most brilliant students pretends to be nothing more than a layabout, and it drives me to madness. I know what he is capable of - and he knows I know - and yet we continue this neverending dance."
He takes a deep breath.
"I'll give him an A in my class if it kills me."
“I had a thought today that may end with Grif glaring at me, but if T-Rex’s had feathers, as some scientists now believe possible, was the T-Rex in Jurassic Park not actually a dinosaur, but, in fact, a man?”
Tea but one ic (students? SDC?) and one ooc plz thank
Oob takes a looooong sip of coffee. He smacks his lips, and sets the mug down.
“Paywalls are killing academic research. Here is how. I had several of my students come to me, distraught, that they couldn’t access materials needed for their thesis. They’d spent some time attempting to find something to cite for their claims, but many articles required more lien than your average poor university student has to their name, and for a limited time as well.
“I helped them. I knew several of the researchers personally, and reached out via e-mail for direct access to the source material, which allowed them to circumvent it entirely, but... imagine the absolute gall a publishing company has, to bar research and progress from the community at large because they wish to turn another quick lien. And many people don’t realize the various ways around it! They’re trapped, forced to pay or adjust their thesis and deal with the fall out of poorly cited facts and low grades.”
He takes a deep breath.
“I’d rather like to introduce them to Antiquity and burn the lot down. Especially in the case of Jacques Schnee. I found out one of the publishing paywalls was behind one of their subsidiary companies. Apparently Dust research needs to be micromanaged.”
🍵 salt me up
//Sippy.
I think my favourite thing about the Branwen's is how much they love, and how deeply, about a whole lot of people.
Qrow's semblance makes him remove himself because he loves people and wants the best for them. It's not the right decision, because it takes agency away from those affected, but it is what a young man chose to do in order to protect people, and makes sense with his character.
Raven's semblance brings her closer and makes her love her greatest strength. She loves deeply. I have no doubt in my mind she wanted that family. But she was at her core ruled by fear, so she left her husband and daughter - who she loved so much her soul bonded with them and she has a link to them, wherever they are - rather than face that fear. Survival seemed easiest in the life she could control.
They each go about their protection in self destructive ways, but they were the choices of the young, the unsure, the ones who were raised against the grain.
🍵 for whatever first comes to mind
//Alas, I don't have my Oob tea icon on this computer, so we'll have to imagine him taking a slow sip of coffee.
(also, let it be known that no use of the word 'you' is meant to be the asker. It's just me ranting).
I'm gonna salt on pretentious writing for a minute here.
I hate it when people slam a pile of ~fancy~ words together and act like they're being high IQ, better than thou with their writing. Language just... doesn't work like that. Most published authors will advise you to use language that works for the setting and for the character, and not to get so high brow and purple with it that it leaves your readers perplexed.
Now, sometimes vocabulary is just going to be an adventure for a reader if you're going into subject matter they're not familiar with. But if you purposely write in a way that will leave your readers scratching their heads, that's not a win. That's terrible writing. You are literally just bad at it, you're not being extra metaphorical.
Good prose is concise, and sometimes simple. Good prose doesn't use a fancy word that seems close to what you want that you decided sounds better, but actually doesn't fit, at all. Good prose gets to the point and paints a clear picture in as few words as possible. No one is Charles Dickens anymore, and the reason he was like that was because he was getting paid by the word.
Anyway that's my salty tea right there.
People don't need long, purple, flowing sentences to be good. And if you think that people just 'don't get it' or whatever, and you sneer over your hand (think 'oh, you have to understand Science to like Rick and Morty) you're literally just pretentious.
Dr. Oobleck, from RWBY.
Send me a 🍵 for me to spill some fucking tea.
Will I ever stop drawing Oobleck even though he’s probably never coming back?
…
No.

Bartholomew Oobleck at Beacon taking a late night smoke break. Is the photo from his MySpace page or just Qrow’s scroll? Who can say.
4, 5, 30
4. do you write smut only with your muse’s partners, or are you okay with one night stands?
Wellll considering I primarily rare pair, I'm good with any and all. A lot of my muses don't even have canon relationships, and the ones that do I tend to ignore them in favour of whatever I have built for them personally in RP. So: one night stands & relationships are great
5. do you prefer for things to get in details, or do you prefer to “fade to black”?
It's all on the vibes. I'm fine with fade to black as the situation calls for, I'm fine with vaguer NSFW RP, and I'm fine with details. It really depends on both my mood and the other writer, and on comfort levels. For example if I'm shipping with someone but don't vibe in the right way with the mun, I'm going to prefer a fade to black.
30. is your muse a virgin?
Nope. He lost his virginity at some point in Beacon.

what’s the best thing about shipping for you?
what do you think about crossover ships? (the fucking audacity of me to ask this alsdfjfdgh)
what’s your BROTP when it comes to your muse
do you have a favorite memory when it comes to rping a ship?
what’s the best thing about shipping for you?
Oh gosh. Um. The feelings. The plotting. The screaming at my friend as we plan out the next piece of mayhem. The sending each other memes and pics and going 'this is them.' The aesthetics.
I am a total ship whore. I love it. If I got good chemistry with the mun, chances are I will want all the freaking ships.
what do you think about crossover ships?
GEE, EMBER, I DUNNO!
Real talk though, I used to want to kind of avoid them, but that's where the mun thing comes in? Muns beautify a person's muse and fandom for me. A character I may have been ambivalent to is made beautiful by the person taking care with them, and it's what makes me want to ship the most sometimes? So... crossover ships? With the right person, and a careful hand about building the world they'll meet in, hell fucking yeah
what’s your BROTP when it comes to your muse?
Explicitly BROTP? Um. Not sure. I really like Tai and Oob being good friends, but I'd also kill for a Tai to ship with, so. I'm on the fence there. I guess Port/Oob friendship would be the only one?
do you have a favorite memory when it comes to rping a ship?
A fav? Not off the top of my head. But I certainly remember and love all the building and planning we had when it came to that big one we've got of Butters and Jones, as unlikely as the two were, and just how great it is
3, 16 (besides no students), 27, 30, 39
3. Do you have a pet peeve when it comes to shipping?
Yes. Mostly it's down to assumed shipping, when people expect you to write a certain way because either the muses are/were together in canon in the show, or if it's pressure because 'I know you ship this! I've seen you reblog x/shipped with that mun.' I hate forced ships sooo much.
16. What's your NOTP when it comes to your muse?
I have quite a few that I know Oob would never go for (Ironwood comes to mind), but my biggest NOTP is Oob/Port. I don't have a good reason why, I guess. Maybe because the few times I went looking for Oob stuff in the beginning, that was the only ship, and no thanks.
Also, the fact I have to see Weiss/Oob deep deep in the tag makes me angry.
27. Did you ever play a wedding?
I think we've mentioned it to each other, but no never an actual wedding. I've definitely gotten close to RPing Oob getting engaged, but no weddings.
I think. My memory is really garbage, sooo.
30. Is there any "unconventional" relationship you play, or would like to?
I think Arthur/Oob is kinda unconventional, so there's that. I really like Raven/Oob, too. I think his rebel persona at Beacon would have been attractive to her and they'd have made a decent couple, if short lived.
39. Does your muse have a celebrity crush?
I see what you did there.
Yes, he do. Her name is Briar, and they are perfect for each other.
