... damn. Now if that option was actually winning, that would get pretty interesting. We would be the White Whale of Atlas.
I mean, I love Moby Dick, but I think that it would only be because Winter fears for her little brother's safety. And possibly protect company and family secrets.
@Magoose Does the Weiss option change canon in regards to her not going Beacon?
Yes.
The W in RWBY most likely be you because Weiss will choose to remain in Atlas, so unless you do something on your adventures that Sends RWBY to Atlas early, then events may send you to Beacon Academy.
Because there must be Schnee in Team RWBY.
3) Worst of all it alerts his Father to Whitley running away, and make it difficult for him to take things useful for surviving on his own. Because it would be best to learn of things when Willow comes to him enraged instead of something that allows him to act quickly.
One thing I will say is: You will be able to take items that will be useful... or sentimental, that help our dear boy keep his sanity. Remember, Stress is a hidden factor, not a nonentity.
I'm not interested in this as Winter will likely be sent after Whitley, and this insures Winter won't be inclined to turn a blind eye if she catches him.
I said it was the possibility, but a likely one, for simple reasons:
Winter, finds out her twelve-year-old brother has run away from home, alone, with not much in the way of support, and is nowhere to be found.
She may want to abandon the family name and responsibilities, but she is not a sociopath. She still loves her little brother and wishes to keep him safe, even if it means sending him back to Jacques.
So if this is Weiss goes to Beacon like canon except she has severed any place in her heart for Whitley whereas he still cares for Weiss this would be interesting as they're more likely to interact compared to most of his family.
This Weiss won't go to Beacon.
She will remain the perfect princess of the Schnee Family, and it will be up to us to be the rebellious one.
So Willow is targeting anything she associates with Jacques and wants to ruin what she perceives as his?
In the simplest terms yes.
She is also trying to take back what is hers. which is the SDC.
So a Schnee Civil war is playing in the shadows.
I have no problem with my choice. I want to see Magoose's spin on it.
It's a good one,
Someone mentioned earlier in the thread that this is the result most likely to get Whitley to Beacon specifically because Weiss knuckled under to Jacques, didn't defy him and as a result didn't go on to become a Huntress.
You could be correct.
It also really fucks you up, seeing your older sister basically bow down to the Jackass Schnee's Will after so long fighting against it.
