r/RWBY

That is my Question

To me i think she thinks about Blake or does Cowboy stuff because she kinda dresses like someone from the old west like if Square Enix made final fantasy game set in old west character would probably look like Yang

That or writes in her diary probably about she is hanging in there despite everything that has happened with her & sister & girlfriend & Weiss I guess maybe recapping there adventures so far makes you wonder what she wrote about the Forever After or how home looks like after coming back from the Forever After

What do you think Yang thinks when going for a new look? Me if its Yellow enough & all that you know probably other things

But that me what do you think Yang does when her teammates aren't around?

Sometimes people are completely disrespectful in discussions.

They call each other "bigot" just because they like certain characters or because they like the show.
People also say, "The discussion about something is asinine," just because others disagree with them.
Or, "Why is this even a discussion?" just because others disagree with them.

People use Monty's name to attack or defend the show. "This is what Monty wanted." "This isn't what Monty wanted."

Personally, I don't care. Regardless of whether Monty wanted something in the show or not, I'm going to continue criticizing or defending the series because there are things I like and dislike about it.

People insult each other, and that's intolerable.
I know we're on the internet, and that's why people feel free to attack others. I mean, that way there won't be any consequences.
But please, this should be a space where we can all be happy together and discuss things in a healthy and polite way.

Anyway, this isn't a rant or anything, I just wanted to make a request for people to be more respectful.

Adam was born into the Schnee Dust Company’s Faunus labor system alongside his parents, forced to work dangerous mining operations under brutal conditions. The mines were all he knew growing up: collapsing tunnels, exhausted workers, overseers who treated Faunus lives as disposable. But despite all of it, Adam’s parents tried to give him something hopeful. After shifts, they would tell him stories about heroes. 

warriors who protected the weak, people strong enough to stand against monsters. Those stories mattered to Adam because they taught him strength could mean protection instead of cruelty.

Then his parents died in a mining collapse. And the company replaced them the next day.

That was the first lesson Adam learned about the world; Some people suffer so quietly that nobody notices when they disappear. As Adam grew older, he became respected among the other Faunus workers because he constantly protected them. He took blame for accidents to spare others punishment. He volunteered for the most dangerous labor. He became the kind of person who would destroy himself before letting someone weaker suffer in his place. Even before joining the White Fang, Adam genuinely wanted to protect people.

The branding incident becomes the moment that permanently changes him. After a Dust vein detonates during a mining operation, Adam accepts responsibility to shield the other Faunus workers from punishment. The SDC responds by branding him across the face. Not disciplining him.

Branding him. Reducing him to property. That moment destroys something inside Adam. Because the pain itself mattered less than what it represented: proof that no amount of obedience, sacrifice, or restraint would ever make people see Faunus as human. And from that point onward, Adam stops believing kindness alone can change the world.

When Blake enters the White Fang, Adam is not yet the monster people later remember. He is passionate. Intense. Hot-tempered, but compassionate toward his own people. During protests he protects civilians and injured Faunus alike. He believes violence should only be used when absolutely necessary. To many younger members of the White Fang, Adam is inspiring because he is living proof that fear can be survived.

That is why Blake falls in love with him.

Because Adam is everything Blake wishes she could be:
Fearless. Certain. Unbreakable.

And Adam loves Blake because she reminds him of the humanity he is slowly losing.

Their relationship genuinely works at first. Blake tempers Adam’s anger while Adam teaches Blake how to stand her ground. He trains her not because he wants her to fight wars, but because he never wants her to feel helpless. He gifts her books, encourages her intelligence, and teaches her discipline through combat. Adam sees Blake as proof that strength and compassion can coexist.

For a while, she keeps him balanced.

But the world keeps giving Adam reasons to hate it. The more brutality he witnesses against Faunus, the more his worldview changes. Peaceful protests fail. Innocent Faunus get beaten or killed. Human authorities protect powerful abusers while punishing desperate victims. And every time Adam tries restraint, suffering continues anyway. Meanwhile Blake continues believing people can still change.

That difference slowly tears them apart.

The turning point comes when one of Adam’s closest friends is murdered by a corrupt Atlesian higher-up who uses wealth and political power to avoid consequences entirely. 

For Adam, this becomes undeniable proof that justice does not exist for people like them. So Adam creates his own justice. He hunts the man down and publicly executes him before both Atlas and the White Fang.

And the crowd cheers.

That moment changes everything.

Blake stares in horror as Adam no longer looks like someone protecting people from fear but someone who has learned to control people through it.

The admiration, the worship, the power — Adam embraces all of it. For the first time in his life, the world is afraid of him instead of the other way around. And after spending his entire childhood powerless, Adam becomes addicted to that feeling.

“Fear is power. Pain is power.”

That philosophy becomes the foundation of who he is. To Adam, fear is no longer merely survival. It is truth.

What’s worse? part of him is still trying to protect people. Adam genuinely believes the world forced him into becoming what he became. In his mind, violence is the only language oppression has ever respected. Every monstrous act he commits is justified by the belief that mercy only creates more victims.

That is why Blake cannot entirely hate him. Because she knows the world truly did brutalize him. But Adam’s greatest flaw is that he stops seeing fear as a weapon and begins seeing it as identity. The more power he gains, the more he defines strength through domination, until eventually he values victory more than the people he once wanted to save.

His final argument with Blake mirrors the collapse of everything they once believed together. Adam argues that the world will never change unless forced to, but Blake argues that becoming monsters guarantees the world never will.

And when Blake finally leaves him, it devastates Adam far more than he admits. Because beneath all his rage, Adam genuinely trusted Blake more than anyone else. At one point he even asked her to stop him if he ever strayed too far from their cause.

Deep down, part of him knew what he was becoming.

But by the time Blake leaves, Adam no longer believes he can turn back.

That is what makes Adam tragic in this rewrite. Not that he was secretly evil. Not that he was always abusive.

But that he began as someone who wanted to protect suffering people. and slowly convinced himself that becoming terrifying was the only way to do it.

And the worst part is; part of him is right. The world did create Adam Taurus. The hatred, the abuse, the branding, the exploitation — all of it was real.

But Adam ultimately becomes proof that suffering alone does not justify cruelty. Because once fear stopped being a means of survival and became the core of his identity, Adam stopped fighting for freedom, and started fighting so nobody could ever make him feel powerless again.

I made a basic shirt to join in on the hype lol

The studio has accepted their version of the script and has provided the budget for season 10. The studio that is making season 10 is called Sola Digital Arts. It's still a 3D series, but we may see another graphical leap.

I could not stop myself and spent all night making this. Sauce is twitter/x See my profile for links

Now that RWBY is back, I'd like to say something positive about the series.

I consider this one of the best things about Volume 5 (along with Ilia's redemption).

Let's review what makes this scene good.

First, we have Adam and Sienna talking. Notice how Adam is kneeling before her; he's trying to maintain that facade of loyalty.

Sienna expresses her ideology. It's interesting because she doesn't condemn violence itself, but rather the recklessness of Adam's actions. Which makes sense.

Adam says that he only wanted to follow her example. (Pay attention, because this will be important later).

Hazel arrives. He shows himself as someone willing to kneel before Sienna. Very diplomatic. This reveals a lot about his character, as he's someone willing to go the route of dialogue instead of subduing Sienna through force.

Then Adam reveals his true intentions. He expresses his supremacist ideology of the Faunus (basically, the Faunus are superhumans) and how humanity should serve them.
This shows that Adam has ambitious goals, which would ultimately condemn the Faunus if achieved.

Then comes the coup scene. Adam reveals his popularity among the White Fang and how they are willing to eliminate their original leader because of his devotion to Taurus.

In the end, Adam kills Sienna, and I like the detail that he says Sienna will be a martyr for his cause. Very clever.

Then a small clash between Hazel and Adam. Something that reveals both of their personalities. As hypocritical as Hazel is, ultimately, he doesn't like unnecessary violence. He is more... utilitarian.

While Adam is more sadistic.

Something Adam says is that he follows Sienna's example. This could be true. She was a great influence on him. This could very well be a reflection of how Sienna's ideology is self-destructive.

I pointed out that the scene was almost perfect. Almost. What was missing?

First of all, Sienna only just appears. And while there are mentions of her here and there, it doesn't seem enough considering the importance she should have.

And second, I would have liked to see a fight between Adam and Sienna. Let's suppose Sienna dodges Adam's attack and the fight begins. We really have no reason to think Adam couldn't win.

Beyond that, it's a good scene. Very good.
