RWBY V4 C7

## Plot

Guess what's here guys? And just in time for Christmas! Or New Year's, if you're like my sister and you want to wait until it's on YouTube to watch it. Anyways, guess who's back this week? Oscar, that farm kid. The one that can hear Ozpin's voice in his head. Ozpin is trying to get him to leave, but Oscar has decided that the voice isn't real and that he's going crazy. Their souls are combined, and it's implied that Ozpin went through the same thing. He gets Oscar to try picturing the headmaster's office in Haven. Despite never having been there, Oscar gives an incredibly detailed, vivid, and most likely completely accurate description. Ozpin helped build that school. Remember, according to the World of Remnant videos, those schools were built not long after the Great War, which ended around 80 years ago. Oscar is freaked out that he knows that. He tries to rationalize it as something he saw in a picture. Ozpin says that Oscar has an opportunity for greatness, and he knows that he doesn't want to spend the rest of his life working as a farmhand in Mistral. Oscar yells at Ozpin to get out of his head. The scene cuts away, and we see Jacques yelling at Weiss for the scene she caused at the party. While a grounding may be in order, he goes a lot further than that. After Weiss points out that he married into the family, he *slaps her.* I never had any sympathy for the man before, but now I just want to strangle him. He forbids her from leaving the manor grounds, let alone Atlas, and strips her of her heiress status, meaning that Whitley is now the sole heir to the Schnee Dust Company. Whitley proves to be exactly like their father when he reveals that he acted nice to Weiss so she would try standing up to their father, and he'd be made the sole heir to the SDC. Weiss cries in her room, but she refuses to give up. After moving aside some furniture, she opens a case containing her weapon and vials of Dust. We cut again to team RNJR, Qrow, and Tyrian in Oniyuri. Tyrian introduces himself to Qrow, and in their mostly cryptic dialogue, they reference Salem. The two fight to a standstill. Qrow orders the kids to stay back. Ruby attempts to snipe Tyrian, but the two combatants are moving too fast for her to get a clear shot. After briefly losing his weapon, Qrow just punches Tyrian a few times and retrieves it. This fight is awesome! Emerging from a building, both of their auras are gone, and Ruby ignores her uncle's order to stay back. *Pain Is your reward for being near me Fate Won't be your friend when I'm around Fade Before the tragedy that follows Flee The situations I surround A harbinger I cannot lie I will change the color of your life I don't mean to bring you pain But I will, just why, I can't explain I am no one's blessing I'll just bring you harm I'm a cursed black cat I'm an albatross I'm a mirror broken Sad to say, I'm your bad luck charm* This means that Qrow has to save her from a beam falling on her head, which leads to Tyrian cutting Qrow with his stinger. And *that* leads to Ruby shooting his stinger off. Whoa. That's hardcore. Tyrian, in pain and enraged, attempts to attack again, but the other members of Team RNJR are ready to fight him again, and they still have their auras. And all of their limbs. Tyrian reluctantly retreats, since he knows that Salem will be mad at him. Qrow claims that Tyrian just grazed him, which he did, but he was still stung with a potentially poisonous stinger. After the teens bombard him with questions, he starts to explain when we cut to the credits.

## Review

Oh come on RT! Have a heart! I mean, I know you do because your community is generally so supportive and awesome, but still! The cliffhangers! The suspense! I loved the fight scene and the music, of course. And I really loved Aaron Dismuke's portrayal of Oscar. He does a perfect job of playing a confused, scared, and at times angry and frustrated kid who wants more in his life, but never wanted or asked for this kind of burden. I can't wait to see more of him in the future. Also, can someone tell me what an albatross is, and why it's unlucky?
