❝ c-captain... wh... ❞ what on earth was he doing here? wasn’t he super busy being reinstated as the captain of the 5th again? one glance to the candle, he could tell just how late it was by the amount of nails lying on the floor. IT WAS PRETTY DAMN LATE!

❝ you shouldn’t have!!! ❞ he said, gladly taking the bottle of sake out of the man’s hands and already walking back inside to find two cups. what a pleasant surprise it was indeed. his apartment was a mess. as was the man himself. but training young people to become soul reapers did prove quite challenging at times. he didn’t recall ever being as stubborn about learning certain things when he went to the shino... but that was already quite half a millennium ago.

time was flying.

❝ SIDDOWN!!!! BE COMFORTABLE!!! ❞  

          Grinning from ear to ear, he follows Sakai’s retreat and ducks into the instructor’s humble apartment. It is just like any bachelor’s abode; not the tidiest, but there is organized chaos and structure amongst the clutter, and Shinji threads his way gracefully towards the small chabudai in the middle of the room. 

          He takes the two cups from his old comrade and sits down on the tatami by the low table, and while the man is bustling around the kitchenette to host his unexpected guest, Shinji patiently gazes upon the familiar back and feels gladness simply at being able to look upon this sight again after all these lost decades. It’s a back that he used to see on missions, the most reliable vanguard. Now, that same sturdy back is slightly more stooped compared to what he remembers, as if weighed down by the passage of time and tragedies, but it is still here. 

          A growing soreness tingles in his nose. He is tremendously glad, that Sakai is alive and well. 

               “ Pardon the intrusion, sensei. ” His tone is very gentle, very fond. “ Took me a bit longer than anticipated to return and visit ya. ”

why don't you sit at the foot of the lighthouse and watch waves crash against the rocks and maybe you'll calm down a little

biker!simon benching his 1000cc bike when he gets with you because he doesn’t want you worrying. sure he doesn’t have to use the max speed of it but the temptation is strong so he rather not (it’s not permanent, anyway. it’s just so he can learn how to cruise with a slower bike without picking up speed when his mind ultimately forgets). you don’t even know the differences so this is all a him-thing and i dunno. just thinking about simon curbing old habits for you makes me so !!! it’s not like he wasn’t careful then but there are more deliberate attempts now. and even if it’s unusual and awkward at first, he likes the change.

All the Starklings in FeastDance facing the question, “how long can I deny/repress my identity before reality makes it impossible for me to pretend to be anything other than myself, but also, can I survive being myself?”

Me personally, I think Bi-Han would be a fairly good pillow, especially for people who like sleeping with pillows that have a cool side to them, just a thought.

ruby: i'm a huntress. my team and i are heading to the leviathan and can weaken it for you to attack! jaune: we can? ruby: i can. maria: ruby, when i said "trial by fire"— ruby: i did it at beacon and at the farm. weiss: you really think you can do it now? ruby: i don't have a choice.

there was something only summer could do—"if i do this right, there's nothing to worry about." in red like roses part ii, summer's part includes "i didn't have a choice, i did what i had to do."

ruby: we don't have to kill you to stop you. and we will stop you. salem: your mother said those words to me. she was wrong, too.

the goal wasn't to kill the leviathan, but to weaken it for the military to attack; and when the answer from the military was no, they're not getting support for them for their ship is flagged as hostile, ruby says fine, they'll do it alone if they have to.

summer's plan wasn't to kill salem, but to use her silver eyes to encase her in stone for what she surely hoped was for eternity; but like the leviathan, salem broke free, and summer was proven wrong.

but what interests me is that ruby asked for help from a local authority, and got a no for an answer because their ship, their mode of transportation, was flagged as hostile. it makes me wonder if summer originally brought up her plan to ozpin as a way to defeat salem once and for all, an attack they'd all play a part in, and ozpin said no. he couldn't reveal his true reasons for why he denied it, but if summer's plan always involved raven—who just so happens to have a semblance perfect for transporting people—, he could have used that as an excuse; raven had already left, they had no idea if she was loyal to them or not, she could be hostile, etc.

it's too risky.

but summer was determined, and she'd do it alone if she had to; she "didn't have a choice", after all. and the rest is history.
