What would Whitley’s semblance be? There is the family glyphs which could lead to a training scene with Winter and/or Willow. The glyphs are valid, it’s just that it would also be cool for it to be something else you know?
There are the Elsa like powers I’ve described poorly in a past blog a long time ago, but what if it’s something a bit more miscellaneous?
Like being able to see, literally or figuratively, through smoke and mirrors. Imagine if he could perceive things clearly despite there being a sandstorm or heavy fog. It could even work against Semblances that work to undermine the perception of reality.
In the same vein, what if he could tell if people were telling the truth, but unlike Robin there was no way to demonstrate it to other people. Though that does seem kinda “weak” narratively in a way I can’t describe. The same way Ironwood’s Semblance is. Almost like a cop-out
Perhaps something similar though? A semblance where he can know how much something is worth to some, whether it be by itself or in comparison to something else would be neat. It would also be neat if he could appraise how much something is worth. I can just see him look at a patch of sand or dirt and say “There Dust/Gold/Platinum/Iron/Copper/whatever in them hills”
To be clear, I don’t want him to have the x-ray vision of Superman. I want him to know this kinda of intrinsically, and he has to prove it. I want to become trusted, for him to eventually be able to go, “it came to me a dream” and for people to go along with it.
Perhaps, “seeing” wouldn’t be the best description of this semblance, but rather a Gut Feeling(tm) premium for commercial enterprise. It would certainly fit somewhat thematically because he is a son of an oligarch/capitalist. (I say somewhat because it’s been ages since I’ve watched RWBY, and I’m not that confident in my assertions of character traits and such)
I’m fluent in various languages, mostly money.
I’m not here because I want to, but because as a slave of my own social standing I’m obligated to mingle at least once a month in a room full of people. So anyway, how are you today?
How dare you assume it was me who did that?! Of course you are correct, but I find it offensive I was your first guess!
Hey- Yes, excuse me. Could you please stop talking?
If I had a penny for every time I’ve heard something stupid tonight I’d be richer than I am now.
Dear diary: Today I gave my father’s belongings to charity.
I found out my voice alone can annoy several people. Makes my job a lot easier.
I’m so stressed my hair is going to turn gray and go back to white.
*scarfing down a plate of crepes*
She’s really pretty. But sadly I lack the human function that allows me to express feelings appropiately to others.
Technically I could afford a therapist. But that doesn’t mean I will.
They’re trying to take my mental illness from me! It’s the only thing I have left from my father.
I got baptized at age 15, but instead of water they used wine. So creative.
My biggest advantage is that people usually underestimate me.
Well, that was unexpected.
If I didn’t know any better I’d say you did exactly what I told you to do. Unfortunately, you’re you.
The quality of this door is impecable. Such craftsmanship.
Sometimes I feel like my life is a comedy, and I’m the main event.
I hope you don’t pay your taxes on time.
For those of you who play/like Genshin, wich vision would each of the Schnees have? Would all of them have the element of Cryo or would they all have a different one each?
Winter is Cryo or Anemo 100% don’t even try to change my mind
It's mentioned that in every timeline Sayaka contracts and becomes a magical girl, she becomes Oktavia.
I think this says a lot about Sayaka's mental state. Even if Hitomi doesn't confess to Kyousuke, even if Sayaka and Kyousuke were to date, Sayaka would still become Oktavia.
Maybe it's a case of regretting what she wished for, or falling out of love with Kyousuke, or that her relationship with Kyousuke didn't work out how she had wanted it to. Regardless, something always goes wrong when she makes her wish; and I find that very fascinating.
I fucking hate when people say stuff like this. Especially when it's on a generally good post with valuable information. On the one hand I want to share that information because it could genuinely help someone; on the other, I don't want to spread this type of guilt-tripping and shaming and potentially trigger someone else like me. It's a lose-lose situation. No matter what I do, I am going to feel guilty. No matter what I do, I will feel like a terrible person. It sucks and I just wish people would stop doing this. I know it's shocking, but it is actually possible to make an important and useful post without guilting everyone that sees it into sharing.
Oscar: The love you two have for each other is so wonderful. I wish I had a sibling...
Weiss: *Smiles proudly*
Whitley: I'll sell her to you.
Whitley: Cheap.
For some reason, I really like the idea that Whitley is unique in that he has no aura. Like nothing at all, no semblance, no glowy shield, no enhancement coming from the soul. Nothing.
I also really like the idea that he has Elsa powers. This is probably just me though.
Edit: Ny head canon/ ideas is that Willow tries to unlock Whitley’s aura but can’t. After a few test with some huntsmen, Jacques finds out about the tests and Whitley’s lack of aura. He then covers it up by destroying all records of the testing, and the huntsmen go on their way. The huntsmen are genuinely killed by Grimm so the only people who would know are Whitley, Willow, and Jacques.
He has yet to succumb to the halls of Target
been thinkin about making a video for top 10 Oscar moments but the poll only lets me do 10 options so if you have other faves lmk! 👀
maybe I should narrow these down and do a poll per volume/era cause a lotta these are v7/8 lmao
yeah I give up organizing this list I'm lazy just vote and lmk if you have others, maybe I'll do more polls later these were just off the top of my head :P
