If you subscribe to the idea that Oscar may still retain some magic even after Oz departs from his soul, perhaps Olive can do magic?
Oh, that would be such a cool idea, I'll have to play around with that...

So how does Olive get along with her many aunts and uncles (not just Yang, but Jaune, Weiss, Nora, etc)? And did her Aunt Emerald teach her how to pickpocket? 😂
She tried, but Olive was never good at pickpocketing. Olive still has a chip on her shoulder about it (as for yang weiss and jaune… i have comics im going to draw about them lol)
So, was there an awkward moment of little Olive innocently asking her parents to read her "The Girl in the Tower" or "The Girl Who Fell Through the World"? 😂
lol, it would be more like she came home from school one say and said “MOM, DAD. did you know that the girl in the tower and the girl who fell through the world are based on TRUE STORIES???” and ruby and oscar would be like 😀😀 …………..
I love Olive and now I'm hungry for some more lore about her and Rosegarden family as a whole:
- Between her two parents, which is she's most similar to?
- What's the family dynamic like?
- Where does the family live at?
- What's her semblance?
thank you for being so interested in her, wow!!
1. in appearance, probably oscar. in spirit, probably ruby. i will say though, she inherited oscars green thumb
2. her and ruby are two peas in a pod, they can practically read each others minds. she treats oscar like he’s helpless, which he’s quite bemused by. having grown up with the stories of salem and the silver-eyed warriors, she’s very… protective of her parents and tries to make things easier for them. as a result, olive is very independent and hardworking. its usually ruby and oscar who are trying to get her to unwind lol
3. out in the country, close to tai’s. olive has always been a bit starry-eyed and overwhelmed by the bustle of cities. when she visits, she sticks very close to her cousin ty
4. idk… im bad at thinking of semblances so i’m open to suggestions lmfao.
drop the rosegarden kid lore 🔥🔥🔥 (also any other thoughts you have about the ship or them as individual characters)
ROSEGARDEN KID LORE!! this little thing is Olive Rose-Pine, she’s based on Mary from the secret garden, and her weapon is a shovel-shotgun called Lennox. here’s some early concepts of her. she used to have braids but i took them out because they were too cowgirl-ish. haven’t designed her weapon yet because, well, i wasn’t expecting anybody to ask me about her LOL
she never grew to idolize ruby the same way ruby idolized summer rose, but i think she possesses the same “simple soul” that ruby does—she follows her impulses and has an earthy sense of judgment. I think shes similar to weiss in personality (bossy, defiant, a bit bratty, but also ambitious, with a strong sense of justice) ruby calls it a coincidence, weiss calls it karma. she loves her dad and reprimands him when he works too hard. i think on some level she can sense that her parents are a bit different from the parents of other kids… they’re too burdened by the world.
anyway, i like rosegarden a lot, which surprised me because they’re not my usual thing. its funny that they’re known as some “controversial” ship when in the show theyre like… the most milquetoast thing ever lol. ive said this before, but to me their framework is so interesting. oscar as a character is very literary; this young farmhand wandering the countryside, searching for a drunkard with a scythe and a girl with silver-dollar eyes. all the while, he’s being possessed by the ghost of the old world’s sins, slowly becoming someone unrecognizable. heimlich and unheimlich. it’s like an old western.
and ruby is such an interesting character in response to him because for the longest time she kind of… couldnt be burdened by the past? not until it was too late, at least, not until it all came crashing down around her. and at that point, she couldn’t ignore it, because that trauma is written into her bloodline. i could go on about ruby in general cause i love her but this is getting long enough lol. thank you for liking my art!!!!
oh also my personal rosegarden songs are: at the bottom of everything by bright eyes, anything for you by ludo, buddy by all dogs, and party police by alvvays
