Raven: What are you doing?

Ruby: Running with scissors~!

Raven: Stupid girl... No self-respecting huntress would be caught dead running around with a pair of scissors. Dishonorable.

Raven: (Hands Omen) Here. Use this instead.

Ruby: Cool~!

Taiyang: Ruby, no!

Summer: WILL YOU STOP GIVING HER WEAPONS?!

So I’ve been thinking more about one of the more subtle but striking questions brought up by Ruby’s tree vision:

Namely; to where or rather to who were Raven and Summer portaling to? After all, it’s been established that Raven’s semblance, Kindred Link, allows her to create portals specifically to people she has established a certain bond and connection with.

And this is particularly interesting, because of the people we thus far know have Raven’s ‘Link’, only ONE was otherwise not present in the flashback; Qrow.

And wouldn’t you know it; Qrow also happens to be one of the people we can definitively say DOESN’T know what happened to Summer, going off his talk with Ruby in Volume 7 where he mentions having no idea where Summer went or what she was doing on her mysterious last mission.

Now, as I’m sure some people will bring up, it IS possible that Qrow was actually present and is simply keeping quiet about it to Ruby. However, personally I seriously doubt that. As I simply don’t see the writers cheapening such a personal and important scene between Ruby and Qrow by later revealing that Qrow was actually outright lying to Ruby at the time.

So that seemingly leaves us with seemingly only one other option: That Summer and Raven portaled to someone else.

As to who that someone might be? Well personally, I think it would have to be someone we likely haven’t met yet. I know some people have suggested it could have been Ozpin, but frankly I don’t buy that one bit. Whatever happened to Summer is clearly meant to have MASSIVE implications, impact and general status-quo shattering revelations, all things it would make much more sense that Oz has NO idea to. Not to mention it’s kind of hard to imagine Raven forming a link, clearly a very close connection, with someone she seems to have always distrusted like Ozpin. Meaning that we’re left with a character that we simply haven’t be introduced to yet.

However, after giving it some more thought, I think there may be a THIRD option:

Raven and Summer DIDN’T actually portal to a person.

Remember just how we learned the mechanics of Raven’s semblance?

It was via Yang explaining it, via information she was told by TAI.

Here’s the thing though; Tai certainly knew how Raven’s semblance worked back when they were a team with Summer and Qrow. But it’s also been a LONG time since then. And wouldn’t you know it, these last couple volumes have ALSO introduced us to the concept of SEMBLANCE EVOLUTION.

So what if in the near-twenty-odd years since leaving her team, Raven’s semblance ALSO ‘evolved’? To the point where she can form her ‘Links’ with more than JUST people?

Perhaps now Raven can form a link with objects that have particular significance to her? Or, and this one I find the most compelling, LOCATIONS that are particularly important to her?

It’s funny that we’ve never actually known for sure where or to who Raven has been portalling to all the times we’ve seen her. Sure, in hindsight I think we’ve all been assuming it was Vernal in Volumes 2, 3, and 4, and to Taiyang at the end of Volume 5. But the funny thing is, we DON’T actually hear the characteristic sound of Raven’s portal opening in the V5 post-credits scene with Tai, only the flapping of wings. Implying that Raven may not have actually portalled to Tai directly…

Meaning that throughout the show, perhaps Raven wasn’t actually portalling to Vernal, but rather to the camp, the home which now has great significance and meaning to her. And at the end of Volume 5, she portalled not to Tai, but rather to the home she once had on Patch. Or, for the REAL spicy alternative, to Summer’s grave.

So what if at the start of their world-most-homoerotic-suicide-mission together, Raven and Summer portalled not to a person, but rather to a LOCATION that Raven was able to set up a link to?

(shoutout to @mikey-polo420 for the ask that got me thinking about this :D)

thinking about these—

and the context within and like. the obscuring of summer's face when she says "if i do this right, then there's nothing to worry about. trust me." is suspicious, to say the least, but the way she's upset and angry with raven... it feels like it goes beyond just raven leaving, ya know? if summer's hidden face and raven's current view of her is anything to go by, something went south real quick, and i wouldn't be surprised to find it was summer who betrayed raven, and doing so simply because she left once upon a time seems like an overkill.

and that gets me to the scene in V5 and what actually led to the shoulder bump back then, and. well. yang's opinion of raven may have not been the greatest at any point of time, but it was heavily influence with not knowing anything and wanting answers—why did she leave?

it only takes a hard downturn when yang figures out what happened to the spring maiden. that is at the core of everything that follows; including the shoulder bump.

and when the question of when exactly raven became the spring maiden is treated as a spoiler question—even when canon, allegedly, provides a time frame for it—, it really makes me wonder if summer figured it out on her own, and it's that that explains her view of raven in the flashback.

it would also be a really interesting difference between yang and summer; yang taking the target off of raven's back while summer's like WELP. somebody's gotta go!!

[lovingdabeessss]

Raven and summer were totally a thing right

In my head? Yeah, for sure, all three were together it just makes the most sense to me

I’m not even a rosebird shipper really I just watched the episode where we saw them together and that was the only explanation for that

+like it makes sense with their relationship with tai and all it’s just the only explanation
