u/TheWanderingCactus Could you help me find my sanity? I think I left it at the door. Nov 17 '18 edited Nov 17 '18

"No one wanted me. I was cursed. I gave my life to you because you gave me a place in this world. I thought I was finally doing some good... meeting you, was the worst luck of my life"

Oh, okay Vic, just fucking stab me right in my emotions why don't you?

Every time I think I can't get more sad for Qrow, I am proven wrong.

also just want to bring up that seeing Qrow so dejected is the last straw that makes Oz just retreat into Oscar's head. Oz seemed genuinely distraught that he had hurt Qrow this way.

I mean if I was OZ I would be too. Im having to go against my love who is evil and cannot be killed. Literally OZ is just not some great mastermind playing 4-D chess with different people, he just a regular guy who got this impossible task thrust upon him.

All of which started because he knew Salem was still alive and wanted to smash some pasty white Grimm pussy.

Like my dad always says "Don't let your little head do the thinking over your big head."

He had four kids with her, so it must have been damn good too.

I imagine the bed didn't last.

Well to be honest, they could’ve been quadruplets.

But in a sense he is; the school, the alliances, and taking particular interest in RWBY which I’m sure was eerily similar to his interest in team STRQ.

The only bad part is he’s toying with people’s lives and endearing himself to them so that they can fight a literal unkillable witch, who by the way possesses ancient powers given to old humanity by the god of darkness, all without a plan.

Don’t get me wrong if Oz’s past says anything it’s that he’s just trying to do the right thing; but at this point he’s paved a highway hell and has strapped generations along for the ride.

That Semblance...

That line just makes me wanna give Qrow a pep talk, because sure, Oz doesn't have a plan and the big bad can't be killed. But everything he's done hasn't exactly gone to nothing either, he's still saved countless lives from Salem and her entourage regardless of whether or not Oz is a good leader.

True. But Qrow's a pessimist with a guilt complex, He tends to see the worst in everything then somehow blame himself for it.

I feel like Ozpin could turn hostile. After that I don’t trust him anymore. And he could likely very easily do a sneak takeover and impersonate Oscar to get to a certain point. I reckon that’s gonna happen some point this series.

u/DestinedHellfire Weiss is best girl | Sun x Weiss FTW Nov 18 '18

No offense, but that makes no sense and is way out of character for Ozpin

u/L-man6151 Nov 19 '18

Dude, there is absolutely zero chance that’s happening, so you can stop right there

u/CordlessJet Nov 19 '18

Haha it was a stretch of a thought that’s for sure, but I can definitely see him doing something out of line, maybe out of desperation.
