I don't know how lighting works. Or cats.

WHAT?!?! And furthermore, HUH?!

What the fuck just happened?! No, seriously, What the fuck just happened?!

Yang and Jaune were very immature at Kmart, high-fiving each other once they had left the store, trying not to laugh. Their respective girlfriends are not impressed with this childish behaviour.

Pyrrha: What were you thinking?!

Jaune: I wasn't, that's kind of the point.

Okay, so I've been thinking back to a post I made last year comparing RWBY, and Carmilla: The Series (and She-Ra), with a little parallels.

Notably, that in these series, we get a romantic relationship between a cute blonde badass (Yang/Laura), and a goth-esque girl with a cat motif, and troubled past under an abuser, whose less than moral past she's trying to escape from (Blake/Carmilla). 

(This also applies to Catradora, albeit that wasn’t until season five)

But what else hit me was a parallels with Carmilla and RWBY's Big Bads; Inanna and Salem.

Cuz, I look at Lilita Morgan/Inanna, and Salem, I see two abusive mother figures, who are willing to summons gods and bring about the end of the world to get their way; there's also how their descent to evil was instigated by the death of a loved one. If that's all there was to it, that would be enough.

But what really caught my attention was how Inanna and Salem have the inverse of eachother's origin story; Inanna was a goddess, who lost her lover Hastur, and was punished by the other god's for trying to bring him back, who turn her ostensibly mortal (though she'd become a vampire); Salem was a mortal woman, who lost her lover Ozma, and was punished by the god's by becoming immortal, whereupon she becomes an ostensible Grimm goddess.

In this essay, I will

Addendum: I would bring She-Ra into this equation, to complete the tirad, and while I will note Shadow Weaver as an abusive mother figure, I couldn’t find th same similarities in her villain origin story, nor her goals.

i usually dont do screendraws but I HAVE to honor the bees. they’re romance arc works so well because its so intertwined with their character development but like... in a subtle way? (not really but it wasn’t the main thing)

I'm surprised no one did this yet
