Look! I drew actually good hands! I used myself for pose reference and went from there, but here have a lad in his updated outfit :)
As someone who is ND themself and who has friends with “bad” ND disorders, I’m gonna ask neurotypical people to do a few things.
STOP DEMONIZING NEURODIVERGENT DISORDERS LIKE DID, BPD, BD, PSYCHOSIS, ASPD, ETC.
These people are NOT monsters, they are NOT your experiments to test on, they are NOT your hobby. They are living breathing people trying to live the best they can in a neurotypical focused world.
What bothers me the most is that these people are struggling, and then they don’t feel like they can reach out for help because the minute they do, they get demonized for it.
Another thing neurotypical people need to stop doing,
STOP INFANTILIZING PEOPLE WITH ADHD AND AUTISM. We are NOT infants. We are NOT incapable. We are NOT your “soft little baby.” Or some other bullshit.
We too, are people, we are also struggling, but treating us as if we’re incapable of doing anything when we very well could be is beyond insulting.
Neurodivergent people are just that, PEOPLE. Stop treating us otherwise. We just want respect.
Seriously.
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH WHAT THE FUCK
I love Ozpin's laugh on top of this 🥺 He scrunches up his nose and chuckles in a very endearing way (at least he did in Oscar's body)
I just think he should be able to laugh without restraint every once in a while
I WAS WRONG - OH HELLOS
I was born, I was born
I was born at the hands of the potter
And I was torn from the start
I was torn between my god and my father
I was born, I was born
I was born at the dawn of our folly
And I was young, and stubborn to the bone
As I took from the tree that was rotting
I took my chance and bit down deep
The weight of the world was crippling
Now I'll hide my shame with woven leaves
I was wrong... I was wrong,
I was wrong...
And I'm so, so sorry
I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong...
And I'm so, so... I'm so, so sorry
I knew you'd never forgive me
But I was wrong... I was wrong
And I'm so, so sorry
I am sorry...

A song that I thought nicely fitted our favorite wizard
➸ "The potter" is another way of calling god in sacred texts. Ozma was brought back to life and given his mission by the God of Light.
➸ Right from the start however, Ozma was torn between the terms of his mission and his desire to see Salem again. Misled by love, he ended up playing god in a misguided attempt to unite humanity. In that instance, Salem can be read as his "god", turning him away from his "Father's" mission.
➸ Salem, or more specifically the Salem we know today, was born at the height of humanity's greatest folly : turning against the gods which prompted their annihilation.
➸ She was young, she was stubborn and determined and she took powers from the gods that revealed themselves to be rotten in the light of day. (Immortality is highly desired but was nothing but a punishment for her)
➸ Ozma was given the chance to come back and see Salem again through a deal with the God of Light, and he jumped at this chance. While this was his choice at the time, the apple he bit into was in truth just as rotten as the gods previous gifts.
➸ We all know how his history with Salem played out. That bridge burned, Ozma has nothing left ahead of him but his task. A daunting task that weighs on him, seemingly impossible because of Salem's existence and her immortality.
➸ And in answer to his loss of hope, the wizard hides away from the world : ashamed and desperate, seeing no end to his fighting... Up until being proven wrong by four young maidens. Four maidens who give him the will to keep trying, for humanity's sake.
➸ The Wizard tries and tries and keeps trying. He struggles and fails and yet still holds on. He has mades mistakes and how he suffers from them. But no matter how many times he might fall, he will always get up, an apology on his lips. Because humanity stays worth fighting for.

A little possessive Over-obsessive Recklessly reckless
And I'm just a Thrift store sweater with the holes Cute but I need a little sew
I'm Prozac dependent Attack when defenseless
Not such a bad bitch when I'm on my own
Thrift store sweater with the holes Cute but I need a little sew
Thrift store sweater with the holes Faded left sitting at home
Everyone’s got one huh
You have the biggest brain I know and you're SO RIGHT
can’t believe we live in a time where this is Ozpin
but this isn’t
Sorry to get uneasy & extra-specific on main but I wish there was a way to block the very specific narrative that Ozma 2.0 trying to leave with his children was in any shape or form a "betrayal" or "wrong" or "sickening" or one of his faults; because I don't think Salem should be in a 3-meter radius of ANY children including hers and blaming the abuse victim for trying to take his children with him just make me very uncomfortable and I want to close the rwby feed any time I see something close to that thinking.
Look I know that up until that point she was apparently a good mom. But seeing as she basically wanted to replace humanity with her children. And the only magic-people are her, her husband & her children. And that when she saw Ozma trying to leave she immediatly attacked with no care for the girls' safety I wouldn't think she's safe anymore & I would hightail the hell out of here too. The best understanding of mom-Salem in my opinion is that she's a great mom up until things don't go her way, and then all bets are off. And I don't care whether she felt betrayed & anguished by Ozma trying to take her children when she killed them 5 min later.
We have evolved past the need for pretty lies so let's be honest
RT only killed Pyrrha and Ozpin because of how beautiful they are. They knew they would have had too much power in the new engine, and we weren't ready for them.
Now we know better. Give us Pyrrha and Ozpin in the new engine cowards.
Sassy boi 💚🧡 So proud of him ;;
