He has yet to succumb to the halls of Target
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.
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
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
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.
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)
New head canon just dropped.
What if Whitley’s semblance isn’t the heritable Schnee Glyph but rather a Siphon, a temperature siphon to be exact. Like the survivors and the leader decide to active Whitley’s aura cause the Schnee semblance is pretty good Ngl, and surprise his semblance isn’t the same as his sisters’
So when Whitley siphons energy from the temperature of his surroundings, the air temperature in a 50 meter radius drops. The energy from the siphon can act like an overshield from Halo and be used to refill his aura shields.
His aura can also be used to supercool things like locks or knives or anything really, as long as it’s not too big.
So when he uses his semblance, the he siphons the energy from the temperature from the surrounding air. Imagine fighting in the 100*F Vacuo desert to freezing your a** off in like 35*F air.
