If the first thing QRWBY does once they reach Atlas is turn Ironwood against Oz I ain’t even going to blame him if he stays locked up in Oscar’s head for the rest of the goddamn Volume.

Being surrounded by people you truly believe hate you and don’t care about you is so fucking damaging, Oz is more than likely convinced that this entire lifetime is going to be spent alone and friendless like so many lives before and I’m so fucking sad for him, and for Oscar too, everyone but Ruby is treating him like shit because he got stuck with the immortal wizard in his head and he can’t do anything about it and everyone seems to completely forget he’s even in there unless Oz isn’t around to scream at.

Everyone in the FNDM keeps insisting that QRWBY deserve to be angry with Oz but honestly, considering he knew this kind of reaction was probably going to happen once his secrets got out, I understand completely why he kept his mouth shut. This isn’t the first time someone found out about Salem and ditched him (thanks, Raven) and wanting to prevent that from happening is an entirely normal, human thing to do.

Yeah. Oz lied about some pretty important stuff. But so has Yang, so has Blake, so has Qrow, so has everyone in the entire series at one point or another.

Congratu-fucking-lations. You drove a man to tears and then beat him into self-imposed isolation. I hope you’re fucking proud of yourselves.
