(FORGOT TO INCLUDE THIS OOPS)
~~PENNY'S NOTEBOOK~~
- Ruby saying "kitty kitty" is really cute
- CC talking more riddle-y
- CRWBY poking fun at FNDM + themselves in lighthearted way (esp. with Ciel mention)
- Alyx was def a bit selfish
- "I'd certainly say so" ominous, Alyx didn't learn lesson in gentle way?
- Environments are really fucking pretty
- EA inhabitants confirmed to have roles & exist to serve purpose
- "People from Remnant are trouble makers" - MULTIPLE people have been here before?
- Good Weiss animations
- WBY aware of Ruby's struggling
- Blake bounce anim is A+
- "Lively Carpenter" new story character mention - the blacksmith person?
- The Herbalist "at least until I'm not anymore" - alluding to the end of the episode?
- Herbalist getting sick of role?
- RWBY being careful to avoid referring to themselves as humans
- Need to understand who they are before they can move forward
- "This is how a king winds up a prince" - statement is literal??
- Scene of WBY confronting themselves is absolutely incredible
- Perfect snapshot of their growth from pre-Beacon (illusion Weiss doesn't have scar)
- Legit I can't put into words how much I love this scene
- Ruby lost sight of what makes her a huntress
- "Real life isn't like a fairy tale" heartbreaking callback to V1 ("that's why we're here, to make things better")
- "We're here to make it better" slowly turned into " I HAVE to make it better"
- "Keep fighting forever and ever!" completely burnt out
- "What are you gonna be?" Cat stops her from answering - why?
- Consumed by acre if role can't be fulfilled? Red King? Ruby not being Ruby = losing role which is why Cat interrupted?

Poor Ruby not only is she not dealing with her trauma shes also holding her self to the ideals of fairy tail heros, a fully unobtainable ideal that just makes her feel like a failure no matter what she does.

[@jeffreysmith236]

Ruby really needed this introspection, the cat interrupted her, he didn't save her.

Chapter 4 is called A Cat Most Curious, weird that crunchyroll is not displaying the titles still after like a *year*
