OK So Carmine Is Originally From Atlas, And Who Do We Know From There Who Has Tech That Can Steal Aura

OK so Carmine is originally from Atlas, and who do we know from there who has tech that can steal aura and possibly semblances who may have use for mass emotional control, i’m not saying Ironwood has a lab filled with abducted people he’s trying to harvest the semblances of, but i sure as heck won’t be shocked if he does,

Spicecream Week Day 7 Before Fall of Beacon

Neo opened the door to the dorm she was sharing with Cinder and her disciples, and looked at her bed, the fancy gown Roman had bought her for the dance was laid out, she walked over and picked it up holding it in front of herself in the mirror, and nearly started to cry, she had been looking forward to the dance since this whole plan had been explained, Neo never got to go to fancy parties or had any school experiences and she had been really looking forward to this one, but the mission had to come first, and none of the others could risk meeting with their contacts right now, even Cinder had too step up and handle the CCT infiltration with Neo handling some lame issue about a weapons shipment,

“Oh Hey your back!“ Emerald called out upon entering the dorm, “Get dressed and i will help you with your hair!“ Neo blinked in confusion, the dance ended hours ago, it was 3 in the morning, but Emerald walked over and began hurrying her to get dressed, Neo needed up needing help just to get into the fancy dress, it was the single most expensive thing Roman had ever bought her, made by some high end seamstress custom fitted and even matching ear rings, Cinder promised after this job was all said and done these kinds of extravagant things would be a simple way of life for them, it was why Neo kept agreeing to keep going, Her and Roman had finally found a way to the top, and it’s name was Cinder Fall,

After 20 minutes of work Neo was fully gussied up, her hair put up into a fancy up do, her makeup applied and her gorgeous white dress perfectly hugging her body, Neo could almost cry she felt like a princess, gods how she wished she could have gone to that dance, had pretty girls fawn over her, maybe even hit up the hot blonde from the train for a dance for the thrill of it,

“Good, now go the the west garden courtyard,“ Emerald pushed her towards the door, Neo looked back at the door as it slammed in her face and cocked an eyebrow in confusion, but shrugged and headed off, maybe they needed her to woo someone? must be into short chicks or else Cinder or Emerald could easily handle it,

Neo made her way to the specified area, as she turned the corner bringing the small isolated part of the garden she noticed someone in the shadows, standing with their back turned, and allot of unlit candles strewn about, as entered the small courtyard proper, she heard Cinder speak up “Ahh my lady has arrived!” Cinder raised her left hand and snapped her fingers causing dozens of little embers of fire to float away lighting the candles and bathing the area in a gentle glow, a nearby deep set windowsill had a cloth draped over it, with a bowl of punch glasses and plates of fancy snacks lined up on it, her eyes then went back to Cinder still standing with her back turned, dressed in a dark red gold trimmed suit, with her hair pulled back into a ponytail,

Neo slowly walked closer trying not to tear up as the situation settled in on her, Cinder turned around keeping her right hand out of sight and walked over giving Neo a deep bow before presenting Neo with the corsage she had been hiding, “Would you do me the honor of being my date for the evening fair Neo?” Cinder delivered it with a simple and fun tone showing that she knew she was going over the top, Neo hardly cared she just nodded like a love struck school girl, and felt her heart go crazy as Cinder pinned the small group of red flowers onto Neo’s dress,

Cinder pulled out her scroll and tapped a few times, as a song Neo knew she had heard before but never really paid attention to began to slowly  talk of fools rushing in, and got a chuckle out of Neo when the words falling in love came up, of course Cinder’s ego would demand she pick a song with the word fall in there, “Would the lady care for a dance?“ Cinder asked extending her hand towards Neo, the smaller girl curtsied and accepted the offered hand,

Neo rested her cheek against Cinder’s chest and was very grateful for combat grade makeup so she could let some of the happy tears flow and just melt into this moment, it was like something out of a fairy tale, and as far as Neo was concerned those kinds of things just didn’t happen to her, and she was going to enjoy it,

After the song ended, Cinder sat Neo down at a nearby bench and fetched them some punch, seemingly going all out on this, the two sat there, sipping punch eating snacks dancing several more times, and Neo got to enjoy those sweeter smiles that Cinder usually only gave when Emerald and Mercury were being particularly Emerald and Mercuryish and she didn’t think anyone was watching, until they both noticed the light from the now nearly burnt out candles was now being eclipsed by the light of the rising sun, Cinder lead Neo out of the nook in the garden so they could watch the sunrise, Neo holding Cinder’s arm and resting her head on her as it happened,

“You know Neo, if this was one of those cliche love stories this would be the part where, we kissed,“ Cinder looked down at her, “But, well, mysterious candlelit rondevu, getting your date punch, are also really cliche, so what do you say princess, want to go for the hat trick?“ Cinder held up her scroll and turned on the song from their first dance,

Neo closed her eyes and tilted back her head and felt Cinder gently dip her down before softly pressing their lips together, as the song’s title lines played, “Why would i ever want to help it?” Neo asked herself as she savored this little slice of beauty in this dreary world of hurt, Soon her and Roman would be made for life and maybe she and Cinder could establish a separate and very pleasurable partnership, aside from their business one? everything was looking up for her, and for the first time in forever she saw a chance for a new source of joy in her life, and all that stood between her and this promise of a better tomorrow was the fall of this beautiful little school, how hard could that be?

Yang just having a great time with a new friend, till something makes her mad and her eyes change color and the person freaks out because they know those eyes because raven murdered their family, so Yang now has to fight some poor traumatized kid who is scared for their life and desperate to avenge their family, while Qrow is stuck being reminded that he and the rest of Ozpin’s circle let this happen by not going after Raven when she left, that is some pretty hard angst potential right there,

I just realised that we can do with Yang something à la Harry Potter /who looks like the father, but who have the mother's eyes/. And that it has potential for angst, and I'm here for writing it

Ruby: Penny what’s up with all these get rich quick schemes?

Penny: Oh! it’s because Tyrian called you a bitch!

Ruby: Umm what?

Penny: And according to Juane, first one acquires riches, then after doing so they will acquire bitches!

Ruby: Penny...

Penny: (Holding Ruby’s hands between her own) Imagine how sensational it will be to have many amazing friends like you!

Ruby: I would die for you,

Sooo Who is going to be the first person to point out how creepy all the Catra and Blake equivalencies we made are now that we see that Catra was Adam all along?

Penny and Blake meet in volume 7, they both begin ghibli hair flaring at each other to determine who is the dominant bi sexual bobcut girl while Yang and Ruby cheer them on, that it’s that’s the whole volume,
