You keep talking about how we just need a little more time, but you’re not the one having to struggle. We have all needed to make sacrifices for the greater good. Mantle has had to bear a lot of the burden, but- They’re bearing all of it! The longer this waiting game goes on the harder each day gets for people down there, and now you want to send in more soldiers? You can’t force people to fall in line. If you do that, you’ll just be trading all these problems for the Grimm.

Some thoughts about whales, and spoilers for RWBY

So Ironwood is The Tin Man, right? Everyone has that nailed down.

But most main characters have more than one mythical origin going on - like how Ruby is both red riding hood and Dorothy Gale. So what else could Ironwood be? Well I had an idea today:

As we see in “Heroes and Monsters,” Ironwood’s whole right side is prosthetic. Now, what fictional character can we think of who is well-known for having a prosthetic?

Well, I can think of one:

Captain Fucking Ahab, from Moby Fucking Dick.

And it all makes sense once you think of it. The colour scheme matches up: Atlas and Ironwood are heavily identified with white, and Ahab’s leg is described in the book as being made of polished white whale bone. On top of that, they have similar origins. Ahab is obsessed with his failure and his loss to Moby Dick, while post Season 3 Ironwood is haunted with his failure at Beacon and his loss to Salem.

Salem, a white-skinned woman who just rode in to Atlas on a giant sperm whale.

So yeah, Ironwood is screwed. If he imitates Ahab, then he’s probably going to die killing that whale and stopping Salem, and Atlas (or perhaps Amity), like the Pequod, is going down with him.

Ishmael, it should be noted, survives the sinking by hitching a ride in a coffin that happened to be on board. So keep an eye out for coffin-like things next season: that’ll end up being someone’s life boat.

“But what will Ironwood kill the whale with?” you might ask. Well, in Moby Dick Ahab uses a harpoon. Do we have any harpoon-like things in Atlas? Well, I can think of one:

This is all highly speculative, and probably wrong on several points. But Ironwood being taken over by his fear and lust for revenge, dooming Atlas, and using the staff to attack Salem would actually be in-character at this point, and would totally fit in with the Ahab vibes I’ve been getting this season.

Volume 8 is going to be a T R I P

I want it.

The single quality that is common across every living creature on this planet is fear.

It’s funny then, that as common as fear is, we so easily underestimate its power.

Fear of growing close to someone. 

A subsequent fear of loss.

Fear of failure.

And as more people depend on you, those fears can take on greater power.

But the fear itself isn’t worthy of concern.

It is who we become while in its clutches.

Will you be proud of that person?

Will you forgive them?

Will you understand why they felt the need to do the things they did?

Will you even recognize them?

Or will the person staring back at you be the very thing you feared from the start?

I suppose we all find out, sooner or later.

james your vibes are atrocious

This is the part where they ask us for help.

“Got you finally!”

Ruby finally gets that hug all the way from 2015:

Ahh, good times…

Flashback to Volume 2′s Episode 9 after V7E9′s preview.

Oobleck: Fret not, Ruby; those Goliaths are not concerned with us. Ruby, not every Grimm is mindless, or rather not every Grimm is still mindless. You see, the Grimm you see before you are so powerful, so superior to the Grimm you fought, that they’ve undoubtedly lived hundreds of years, and in that time between killing humans and attacking our borders, they have done one important thing: They’ve learned. They’ve learned that when they attack our borders, they’re likely to die, and what we lack in strength, we make up for in will, and that killing one human will only bring more.

Ruby: Then why are they still so close to the city? What are they doing?

Oobleck: Waiting.

“So these are the little friends you threw everything away for?”

With everything going on, I thought we all needed some found family and happy Weiss in our lives.
