#ozmosis

I’m curious as to what people think Oscar’s semblance might be.

Honestly I feel like Oscar’s semblance might be an important part of his struggle with his identity and him having a different semblance than Ozpin or the other ozcarnations may make him realise, that he’s he may still fundamentally change but the merge isn’t parasitic in nature. He is still fundamentally Oscar but with all of the memories and knowledge and magical powers of the previous Oz’s.

But his semblance shows at the end of the day he is still also Oscar too.

I’m thinking either a dream or memory related semblance, maybe something like clairvoyance etc… it would link back to volume 4 when we first saw him wake up after the cutscene after the villains made their plans as if it was something Oscar dreamt.

Oscar’s allusion is that of The Little Prince and whilst the character has no supernatural abilities he does possess the ability to see with his heart either metaphorical or literal depending on the adaptation which might allude to a telepathic semblance.

Either way I find it really interesting that Oscar’s semblance seems to be something stirring in the background. It was mentioned in volume 7 and Neon mentioned how they’re all going to be jealous as to what it is as a passing comment. And then also mentioned in volume 4 as well when Oscar first began training.

Either way I can’t wait to see what other people think Oscar’s semblance might be.

Do you ever think about what two auras merging would look like, physically?

bonus content under the cut

I ended up adding spots of a bunch of different colors, one to get a bit of an oily sheen texture, and two because I think Oz’ aura is probably a mishmash of different colors that *mostly* settle into green but still peek through here and there.

Here’s one without his hand bc it ended up obscuring some details lol

I’ve also always wondered if Oscar’s aura was originally green. I mean, he hadn’t unlocked it until he met Oz, so…

Wait, uh, we didn't see you swap back after speaking with Theo. I'm guessing that you're Oscar, right?

You know what I just realized Oscar was implying when Jaune asked if they would make it?

Oscar: Around that campfire, did it matter?

Jaune: No, no. I guess it didn’t.

Oscar mainly said that to make Jaune feel better but there’s also an underlying implication, he’s also saying that about himself, implying that he’s possibly come to accept that even if he doesn’t make it, that having been around everyone, his friends, making memories with them, (his own campfires, if you will) it doesn’t matter to him, because at the end of the day; he was apart of their lives and they were apart of his and nothing else matters.

It’s a beautiful sentiment that I’m sure Oz also sadly came to the same conclusion himself.

Me: No, not afraid of anything! I mean it, bring it on-

Someone: What about “The Ozmosis” (TM) not having the emotional and narrative payoff you want it to?

Me (crying in a corner): WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT TO ME??

But on a real note when we have V10, they better show my boi the respect and care his story deserves - and I swear if it’s not completing in front of Ruby because she’s the one who told him he was his own person? Anygay RWBY news soon.

So rewatching RWBY and I’m in season 3 right now and I’m reminded of how much I actually enjoy Ozpins character. Like yes, bro effed up, but he was also so kind and funny and wise? Also I wonder how much of his decisions were influenced by the thinking of Ozpin himself or Ozma and his other lives. It’s a merge so it goes both ways. Is that why it feels weird to call Ozpin, or the guy talking to Oscar, as Ozma? There are so many questions that I have and honestly if I got the answers my brain would probably explode.

Went to watch RWBY Beyond, and the stuff there about Oscar is killing me, and I say this as someone who think the Ozmosis could be a positive

[dreadintensifies]
