#RWBY
I might never have really been able to understand romantic Whiterose that much, BUT I will absolutely say they are an utter treasure when it comes to being partners and besties.

I don't really think they've had quite as much time to shine in their antics and or their-
personal interactions super recently but think that's down to both Ruby spending a lot of time mostly with Penny and Weiss either being more spread out across the board with with say Jaune. That and I think Weiss has LONG since out grown her need to go all tsundere with it and-
pretend they aren't as close friends as they are. Especially recently that lack of silly banter and more focus on simply I think it more goes to show how she's not just accepted Ruby as a leader but fully supports and believes in her (as we saw in vol 9) arguably to a fault-
in general I think they spent most of the show making for a LOT of really fun charming moments and really illustrating the genuine strong bond between to trusting ally's with a... very rocky start. And the only reason there hasn't been more of that is because they've just grown-
to truly trust each other completely and I think while not quite as silly... says all that much more about how strong that partnership is.

Might never seen an ounce of romance. ABSOLUTELY see an unbreakable bond. Friends. Allies. Partners.

Super besties better than the resties.

#RWBY A chance to scream about how "This Life Is Mine" is my favorite song of all time about my favorite girl of all time you say?

Honestly like I want to write and talk about it for hours but... for the sake of simplicity and brevity... It's just...

Cathartic. Resolute. A-
perfect, not closer per say to Weiss' arc as displayed through the soundtrack but very much so the moment where she truly embraces who she is, who she was always meant to be, and who she can still become. Not just a representation of her struggles like much of her other OST rep-
or a desire to change like illustrated in "It's my turn" but a pure, unapologetic condemnation of those hinderances, of her previous ideologies and her father/kingdoms influences. In much the way some of the upcoming volume 9 songs are looking to do for Ruby, This life is Mine-

#RWBY Hey so forgive the bright overly simplistic insanely obvious visual aid... but I just happened to pass by something that... has proved its clearly not obvious to everyone.

RUBY'S. CHARACTER. ARC. IN. VOLUME. 9. IS. NOT. FILLER.

It's been bad enough dealing with- Image
this about the volume in general but it is utterly baffling to me that I keep seeing this in regards to Ruby's character arc.

"You are enough"
DOES NOT MEAN THAT RUBY IS THE EXACT SAME PERSON AS SHE ALWAYS WAS. IT DOES NOT MEAN HER GROWTH WAS "REVERTED"

The things that have-
happened to her throughout the course of the show have still happened, the only thing that has happened is she now understands that the insane unrealistic expectations she has foisted upon herself since childhood based on her mother are unrealistic and that to be the hero the-

This is kind of a pretty complicated one honestly, cause outside of literally like everyone fighting and ending her all at once at the very end, it's going to be fairly impossible to nail a perfectly satisfying end w/ her, not because of any bad reason more just because she's-
managed to be responsible for so many peoples very personal pain, Ruby, Jaune, Winter, Neo, etc. etc. and knowing her i'm sure she'll find a way to make that list grow still. So again outside of literally EVERYONE getting their hit in (which very possibly might be how it goes)-
I think it has to be either a situation where she just sort of destroys herself/has her arm completely take over as a way of truly illustrating that hunger for power, violence and revenge just eats away at you (a very consistent theme in the series as we've seen), they have to-

To bring out my own #RWBY #FNDMPositivity and reasons to #GREENLIGHTVOLUME10. So we can have more...

Folks like @SAlle1304, @aleviahwolfe and @GearBearArc, etc. who love to bring us all fun and interesting analysis and perspective regarding both scenes from the show and the-
characters we love so dearly, and what they mean to them.

Folks like @Chaikachi or @EtincelleArt who's incredible art i've completely fallen in love with this year whether its been adorable and wholesome or... slightly emotionally devastating but in that good way!

Folks like-
@gh0xttherebel, @RondueSon and so many others who've joined into the reactor space here this past year and change to bring so much positivity and passion for the show that is just utterly infectious. And even then that's only a couple from the youtube side of things, whether-

Maybe someone can help explain it but not gonna lie, the weird random Ice Queendom hate from the #RWBY FNDM seems... weird and unnecessary to me...

Not because its better than the OG or anything like that, more just cause its not... bad and so often it really feels like... just-
trying to gatekeep the show which seems weird and seems counterproductive to me.

If you have genuine issues with like pacing and stuff, I don't really personally get it but its fair enough, we all have our personal tastes for flow and story progression.

Outside of that. It-
Feels pretty arbitrary and weirdly mean to me. Like almost leaning into that exact same weird takes that we constantly have to deal with from people outside the community talking about RWBY proper. It a lot of the time just reads as gatekeepy and unhealthy for the growth of-
