Why Did Qrow Tell Dudley Or Dee? To Turn Off The Gun Turrets When Grimm Are Attracted To Negative Emotions

Why did Qrow tell Dudley or Dee? To turn off the gun Turrets when Grimm are attracted to negative emotions i.e the scared or worried passengers in the trains as it runs on set tracks on a mountain side. If anything they should be more worried about a potential avalanche (unless theirs a hard light barrier on the mountain protecting the tracks) the turrets would actually do a better job protecting people then getting up top of said train.

Also why did Ren and Jaune just now figure out that they can hide the passengers after a huntsman gets killed, another breaks his arm and is then assaulted by one of your members for doing his job, and then you realise you could've just stayed on board and have your weapons out just incase. The windows were protected, the train had gun Turrets, they could've Gone to the back of the train just in case to help cover the rear. DON'T GO ONTO THE ROOF OF A HIGH SPEED VEHICLE AS IT'S MOVING WITH GUN TURRETS FIRING AT EVERYTHING THAT MOVES AND YOU BARELY HAVE ENOUGH ROOM TO FIGHT YOURSELF ALSO TRAIN'S HAVE TUNNELS AND YOU ARE ON THE. EDGE. OF. A. MOUNTAIN. STAY INSIDE.

(Trust me I didn't know IGN was hosting RWBY content, it's a surprise to me too.)

RWBY:V6 truly is the volume where Team Kids became an unlikeable bunch of entitled heroes.

Even people as harmlessly amusing as Dee and Dudely need to be threatened with their jobs just for introducing themselves and what they do.

The writers couldn't be bothered to make an actual, unlikeable asshole that accosts the kids. They had to make two brothers who are just Huntsmen himbos that pose no threat. It would've been funny to see Team Kids amuse them and work together with them, but they quickly go into antagonizing them from the jump. Even Qrow - as much as I felt bad for him in this particular volume - was cringe.

Can't forget that one of the brothers gets killed and the team still thinks about antagonizing the living brother just because they want to do everything their way.

you hadn’t thought much about lady ningguang

of course, you appreciated her sacrifices and admired her struggles to get to her position, but most days she didn’t cross your mind

until she began to visit your quaint shop

she even made small talk with you as she shopped... something you were surprised by the most

oh, and her flirtatious gestures

her scarlet red eyes flittered from the items on display to you with equal curiosity

each of ningguang’s visits to your shop left you a little flustered, but you appreciated the business

until you began to catch feelings for her

because now you caught yourself stumbling over your words whenever you made eye contact, your heart beating faster than it has ever before, and— wait, when did your palms get so sweaty??

finding yourself loathing the feelings more than your fear of rejection, you made the bold decision to ask her out

when you did, a brief look of regret washed over ningguang’s face 

before she twisted into a cool and neutral expression

“i think you’ve got this all wrong. i wasn’t flirting with you, archons above no, i was just... have you heard of the art of the deal?”

she left your shop soon after, leaving you speechless and alone with the remains of your broken heart

you felt so... hollow 

so you closed down the shop for the rest of the day

... and then the next... and the next...

until it had been a full week since you last opened. 

but you eventually managed to stumble out of bed and get on with your life and continuing to run your business

of course, her words seemed to haunt you as you continued on through each day

each time a customer made small talk with you and asked about your life, you became more selective with your words and guarded each aspect about yourself as though it was your deepest secret

until a certain captain stepped into your shop, alongside her entire crew

it was the first time in a while you had smiled and laughed so hard, and captain beidou had easily burrowed a special place into your heart

but just as those feelings had begun to escalate, a familiar someone stepped into your shop

and ningguang was... not too happy to see you and captain beidou talking... 

and how much beidou leaned across the counter practically infuriated ningguang

but she managed to keep her cool

“oh, hello... captain beidou... i wasn’t expecting you to be here. but i see you’ve met my friend... it’s good to see you, by the way. i’m glad to see you’re doing well.”

unbeknownst to you, ningguang has been sulking around for the last few weeks

she’s mostly kept it to herself in private, but she really regrets rejecting you so harshly

especially when she was actually looking so forward to a date with you... only for her inner thoughts to get into her way

they’ll be better without you, she had thought, they don’t want to be in the spotlight all the time. it would be suffocating for them.

because she knows what it’s like, and she doesn’t want to worsen your quality of life somehow

but she really misses her almost daily visits to your shop (which her secretaries all nagged her about before) 

ningguang has been feeling lost without seeing your face

but, she sees you with beidou, the remains of a smile on your lips disappearing quickly

... and she experiences hearbreak

but ningguang instead just smiles at you, trying her best to convey all of her regret through her eyes only

“i’m sorry for bothering you... i was just here to...er, pick up some packages i left behind last time i visited. i really need them.”

soon enough, you hand over her items and bid her farewell after taking her payment

ningguang feels her throat burn as you turn back to beidou

she stood there for a moment, her eyes now burning, as she watched the blush that bloom on beidou’s cheeks at the sudden attention

ningguang can’t take more of it, so she just turns on her heel and walks out

once she steps out of your shop, she feels the remains of her heart spilt into many pieces

but instead of crumbling down into the streets of liyue, she holds her head high and sweeps those broken pieces away

because ningguang would be damned before someone caught her crying over something as trivial as this

you weren’t even hers and yet seeing beidou being so casual with you... argh, she wanted to scream her fury out

but ningguang just walked the streets calmly, a plan formulating in her head to try and win you back before it’s too late

thank you for reading 💖 all forms of interaction to my posts are appreciated 💖

question

what's the mental effects of a period like?

i have a hunch and im gonna be SO fuckin pissed if it's right

Thought this could fit in well here

TW: talks about suicide ideation and death

I genuinely could not care less if I was run over a car right now.

Does anyone else get that feeling? Like I want to die but I'm not going to kill myself but if the opportunity to pass away without it being directly my fault and it was circumstance the only thing that would remove me from the position which I am in danger of being killed is that A) my mama, dad, and siblings will be sad B) My aunty who I spend most of my time with will be sad C) the few friends I still have will either never know because they go to a different school now and my other friend's+cousin will meet up next youth night and I'm not sure the dynamic will change.

So curiosity, guilt, and fear of being in pain before dying are the only real things keeping me alive at this point.

Major Path to Nowhere spoilers under the readmore, Shalom Interrogation thoughts and theories, got some serious theory crafting and some silly ones

Chiefff I love her so much, getting to hear her voice again is amazing, and her past is so sad!

Due to her saying: "Mark my words, you'll regret this. If you don't end me right now, you're in for a world of pain!" It leads me to believe that past Chief was provoking her on purpose, so that Shalom would be "forced" to kill her in order to remove the shackles.

About that Chief.... um, past you probably would depise that you're still alive... :(

Past Chief: *hates Shalom, hates everything, everyone, herself, shackles Shalom out of anger and desperation so Shalom would kill her*

Shalom, finally experiencing emotions again: FRIEND :) She's so amazing, able to fly under the radar, she's so great, incredible, even now she keeps her humanity(-> proceeds to call us a monster, multiple times)

SHALOM I know your experiencing emotions again in awhile so you're clearly overwhelmed but girl calm down she didn't do what she did to be nice or to help you! She probably knew nothing about that, she just wanted death... :(

Also... I know the Shalom touches the Chief (presumably on the head as seen in the first CG) Also the CG is so pretty, poor past Chief looks so depressed and broken in how she was slumped over in that chair. Yet even after that, there seems to have been a delay between that touch and Shalom being shackled..? Does this mean that the Chief shackled Shalom without touching her?? Chief is straight-jacketed. If the Chief's shackles were always hers, then it stands to reason past her would know more about it, things she possibility wouldn't want to tell anyone about. Something present her has also done, hiding information for her own protection.

Not to mention, in the prologue, the Chief also shackled Hella without meaning to... So maybe it really doesn't require touch, it's just easier to establish the connection to a Sinner's mania through touch?

On a serious note.. What happened... Past Chief seems to hate everything, everyone, and most importantly, herself. She obviously seemed to want to be dead. (Whose protection is the straightjacket for? Hmmm?) I mean, obviously a lot happened to her.

"I will never forgive, never!!" Forgive what? Did Past Chief find out something she shouldn't have about the MBCC, FAC, 9th Agency, Paradiasoes? Never forgive about being experimented on by the Underground?(In the unfurl flashbacks when taking about how the shackles were acquired from the Underground, it shows the Chief in a strange form, so it seems that she and her shackles were the og, and her shackles were presumably "defective" from the Underground Shephard's(?) .

Then due to her being presumed defective, hence a risk Paradiasoes wouldn't like, when really it was her shackles and not her personally, her shackles were replicated into the previous Chiefs of MBCC until for some reason("no other choice but her") she was forced to become Chief. Perhaps the shackles being implanted into her, and possibly the experiments done on her to replicate it so other people could wield them. Perhaps she found out about the secret MBCC lab(possibly the lab the replication experiments happened) that Suspect R destroyed in the prologue which is shown behind her actually. It's all very curious, and all of those could be a factor. It required the Chief credentials to access, so it's possible that the Chief found out about it, and hence Suspect R somehow? (To me due to Suspect R's closeness with Chief and how initially she wanted to take Chief with her in the prologue, it makes me feel like Past Chief and Suspect R were in cahoots until the plan fell apart? Perhaps to get back at the world, since Suspect-R seems motivated by the administrations failures, and also Suspect-R expresses disgust by the shackles, perhaps Past Chief shared a similar view on the shackles and the exploitation(replication) of her powers, hence one of the reasons she wanted death to prevent this? )

It's all so interesting and curious. It's hard to craft theories with so little info since a lot of it isn't certain, and what info we were given spawns even more questions...

Anywho, serious theory crafting over, silly theory crafting next:

Second of all,

I love how this implies that the Chief was given a haircut BEFORE being shoved into the reconstruction pod. The Chief's hair is indeed longer in the past!

Lmfaooo, who do you think gave her a haircut and why?

I vote Nightingale 😂

Nightingale: Chief, with all the operations you've been on, your hair gets so messy because it's so long. Instead of complaining about it, let me fix that for you :)

Past Chief, probably traumatized by experimentation: NO

Nightingale: *>:(*

Later:

Reconstruction Researcher: We're about to place her in the pod.

Nightingale, scissors in hand: ONE MOMENT-

Later:

Adela: If you ever need a haircut, please, stop on by.

Present Chief: I'll consider it :)

Nightingale: You've got to be kidding me...

Lmfao, remember the whole "Midnight Barber" meme audio, Nightingale is the Midnight(ingale) Barber
