Was thinking abt scythes just now and you know what's a really good and functional fictional scythe? Harbinger

For those that don't know, Harbinger is a weapon from rwby, a show that follows "rule of kewl" when it comes to the weapons, meaning every weapon has an over the top transformation sequence, and is also a gun. Harbinger is wielded be Qrow, a drunkard whose semblance (superpower) is bad luck, and is a gun-sword-scythe combo. The weapon said to be inspired by Harbinger is so impractical, even from an impractical scythe sense

Like jesus christ. Anyways, Harbinger is (semi) practical because it looks like this:

... And does this:

If you'll notice, during that transformation, that little red bit that pops out it's the inside blade, meaning Harbinger is double edged. Additionally, the blade curves down far, unlike Cresent Rose, meaning the top edge can be used in a practical way, instead of having to extend Harbinger out and bring it towards you. Contrariliy, Cresent Rose had a double edged tip, and a straighter edge, meaning Ruby has to swing at an enemy with enough precision to hit the edge, like so;

(The blade rotates so she can swing backwards) or do what was previously mentioned, and pull back, like so:

Note: Cresent Rose can turn into a glaive, put that doesn't seem relevant because she only uses it at high speeds

All in all, Harbinger is probably the best scythe, even though scythes are horribly impractical for anything other than farming and looking cool.

Happy Birthday, Ruby Rose!!!!

They think their family is dead

Winter saw Weiss fall and couldn't protect her. She's gone. She looks to her remaining family with a solem nod and tears. Not ready to deal with that trauma, she is heading into a giant grim battle.

Qrow is calling out for Ruby and Yang. He's watching the city get destroyed. He doesn't know they fell.

Ruby doesn't know about Penny. She doesn't know that Winter has the winter maiden powers. She doesn't know about Weiss and Jaune falling into the void.

She ends up getting separated from Blake as they are falling but fights with Neo before shoving her off and waking up on a beach.

Someone is screaming her name. Is it Blake? Is it Yang?

Ruby asks Little if they'd seen other humans, Yang and Blake trying to see if they ended up here too. We love Little. Also the line "sorry! I should have know, I've seen plenty of cartoons"

From the trailer it looks like team RWBY meet up pretty quickly. And I guess Weiss could tell them what happened before she fell. That's a lot to unpack.

At least for now we know they are safe? But like are they ghosts? Are they dead? Are they trapped?

From the after credit scene from end of vol 8 we know that Cresent Rose is in Ever After too.

This season is going to be about self discovery and recognizing worth and purpose. The question is asked over and over and over, What are you?

There are so many answers to such a simple question. What are you at your core Ruby Rose?

[strq-raving]

What if Ruby never gets Cresent Rose back, or rather what if by the time she finally finds it at the end of the Volume she's already made a replacement and Cresent Rose is part of the old Ruby she has to leave behind?

We know there's a prominent blacksmith character, and we've seen the axe type weapon in teasers (and an axe would fit into her allusion a lot better)

Ultimately, the adversaries Ruby now faces aren't the Grimm, but people and Cresent Rose isn't all that effective against the types of people she now faces
