We Have Evolved Past The Need For Pretty Lies So Let's Be Honest

Qrow becoming a father figure to Mercury is such an underrated scenario it hurts me. Besides Qrow's personal villain being Tyrian who is tormenting Mercury as we speak, their individual narratives, albeit on opposite sides of the war, complement each-other so well.

Qrow saw no value in his life because of his semblance bringing harm to those he loved so he isolated himself in addiction and pledged unconditional loyalty to someone who lied and (to an extent) used him. Mercury had his semblance taken away from him for being "weak", which led him to reduce his personal value to strength, latching onto anyone to whom his skillset as an assassin can be useful in exchange for safety.

At least an interaction over their self hatred leading them to unhealthily follow people who gave them value and purpose, even if treated as a means to an end.

The cast is too big help I'm dying

I put Summer in there just bc I think team STRQ is very sexy *holds them gently* i just think they're neat

damn, like every major theory was confirmed in one episode.

hunter is a grimwalker ✔️

hunter is based on belos’ brother ✔️

belos is philip ✔️ 

belos remembers luz and lilith ✔️

darius (and eberwolf) is working with raine ✔️

like, theorists were seriously well-fed today.

I think like Mercury doesn't feel like he can do better than this He's just like "Well here I'm useful and appreciated for that at least" So like... He gets a pass for doing his best ? xD

Even if his best is just leaning into the only thing he was taught, but also caring about Emerald ? He's trying okay I hope Oscar can hand him out a redemption arc in Vacuo fkqfhqk

Your fav is controversial : the RWBY edition

Need some handy catchphrases to defend your love for your "imperfect and sometimes f*cked up but ultimately human" fav ? Here are some at the ready !

rosegarden antis 🤝 huntlow antis

Claiming that the blush was "because he was embarrassed"

I don't think enough people follow me for me to actually get Asks about this but I think it could be fun !

I probably won't answer about the allusion thingy or very little because I don't have strong opinions about them ^^

But yea, in case someone wanna get to know my tastes quickly, here it is ! :D

Send me a RWBY character and I’ll tell you:

My top three ships for the character

My three least favorite ships for the character

My biggest criticism for the character

My favorite thing about the character

A headcanon I have about them

What I would change about them if I was making a re-write

What I I think of their character allusion and what (if anything) I would change about it

OOOOH that’s honestly such a fun question to ask !  I love wondering about this kind of thing with OCs or character. Good fit for my 1st post on Tumblr lol Idk how everything works and my long ass post doesn't show in the main time if I answer directly as a reblog. So here are my ideas of their love languages, aaaand a link to a much longer post exlaining why haha https://nexyra.tumblr.com/post/650515303065894912/rwbys-love-language-part-1

Ruby Rose

Ruby's main love language would be Words of Affirmation !

Weiss Schnee

For our resident Ice Queen, I would lean more toward Quality Time.

Blake Belladonna

For lack of a counter-example I'll say that Blake does seem to have a thing for Physical Touch.

Yang Xiao-Long

For our local hand-to-hand fighter I have to go with Physical Touch !

Lie Ren

Acts of Service is the way he shows how much he cares day by day.

Penny Polendina

For our resident and lovely Penny, I'll have to go with Physical Touch and Acts of Service !

Jaune Arc

It seems plausible that Gift Giving might be a way for him to show care & affection as long as he's allowed to put a lot of thought in the gift. Other than that, I'd say Words of Affirmation is a safe bet as well.

Nora Valkyrie

Physical Touch is Nora's go-to way of showing her care to others.

Good day !

Everyone has a different way to express their affection towards someone. This is called a love language. Each person has a different one. Not everyone expresses their love through intimate physical contact. Some enjoy praises, and others find the strongest love through hugs.

With so many characters and ships in RWBY, we've seen several types of love languages already!

This isn't limited to just romantic relationships, either. Whether it's a platonic, familial, romantic, or ant other such type of relationships, all parties have their own love language.

What this post is aiming to do is determine what YOU think the love language is of each character named below. Sorta like a poll, but not because Tumblr doesn't have the option for polls. So, instead of a poll, I'd like you to reblog with your answers!

I've provided a chart below of each love language. It consists of a description of each of the five love languages and some examples of how one might communicate and act on them.

Read through the chart above and then pick which love language you think fits which character and reblog!

Remember, this doesn't have to be romantic. It can be a platonic ship, a familial pairing, a sibling dynamic, etc.

As promised... Here is my RWBY Enneagram chat !

Here are close-ups for the text (can be hard to read on tumblr)

If you're not an avid typologist you might ask... What IS Enneagram ? And it is my duty to at least quickly introduce you to the concept & not just dump this chart on you :D

For an extensive reading of each type, you can check out this link

And for a quick overview : Enneagram is a typology system (like MBTI or Socionics). It can be a pretty helpful tool, because its focus lies on WHY you act the way you do : discussing the coping mechanism that built themselves out of your childhood struggles/traumas (big & small).

Enneagram is about your core fears, motivations, and how you relate to 3 main emotions (fear, anger & shame). There are 9 types, divided in 3 groups for each emotion & distinguishing 3 main ways to react to them.

Head types deal with Fear

Heart types deal with Shame

Gut types deal with Anger

And the three main ways Enneagram describes to deal with these emotions are : Embrace, Dissociate and Deny.

If I use the Gut types as an example :

Type 1 DISSOCIATE and detach themselves from their anger. They're aware that they're frustrated & angry, but resist this emotion because they want to rationalize it, and only share anger when they feel it is deserved. Their frustration eventually leaks out, and 1s become overly critical. By keeping their emotions and expressions on such a tight leash, 1s grow frustrated and appear as controlled & rigid individuals.

Type 9 DENY and avoid their anger. They numb it until they can barely recognize that they're angry at all. They dumb down or run away from pain & confrontation, in search for simple and painless solutions. Anger has never done anything for them, so they don't feel as though it is worth losing so much energy over. Since they tend to avoid conflict, 9s appear complacent and agreeable.

Type 8 EMBRACE and control their anger. They accept it as part of who they are, and don't care to tone it down for the sake of others. Infused with their anger, they become tough & assertive, chasing away vulnerability and those who would try to control them. Anger protects them, and they use it as a tool. Because they refuse to show weakness and see no reason to bend for others, 8s appear agressive and confrontational.

The same gymnastic happens for the Head or Heart types, but with their respective emotions. Technically, as the 3 groups each deal with different emotions; anyone trying to use enneagram to analyze their own behaviour should also be able to find 3 types (one in each group) they're able to relate to ! Together they make up your tritype :)

There is of course a lot more to enneagram that I woud love to delve into (such as the triads, which are another way to look at the types repartition and what aspects they have in common) but this is the gist of it ! If you're interested or have any questions, you can check out more links at the end (and the Amino community I'm in) oooor just ask me questions !! I'll always be happy to help or answer

Tests do exist like for any personnality theory BUT I happen to know & think they suck; because no one knows & understands you as well as yourself. You can check out answer in an online test, but you can't tell him WHY you chose that answer, and the why is what matters most in Enneagram. So... If that's your kind of thing, just slowly gets to know the theory and yourself. There is NEVER any rush.

Good evening to you all ! *bows*
