So episode three was... well that ending was crazy.
.

It was well known among the upper years that messing with Velvet Scarlatina was to court death itself. Not only was the soft spoken girl truly a terror on the battlefield on the rare occasion she truly got riled up, but it was widely known that her teammates were likely to step in to defend her against any would be bullies and make life hell for the miscreants.
It was also well known that the school's student representative, one Max Caulfield aka Ozpin didn't take to bullying kindly and had taken the girl under her wing.
A true dust prodigy, because of her talent in the subject many of her lessons were with the higher years.
Because of the timeslots of some of the more advanced classes her timetable included a strange hodgepodge of classes with different years, including sharing Dr Oobleck's class with the first years, having skipped it in favour of an advanced course on dust techniques the previous year.
As a result she sometimes shared lunch with her younger underclassmen.
It was during one of these times that Cardin Winchester in a moment of true delusion attempted to pull on her ears.
A well known pacifist, while quite capable of breaking every bone in her aggressors body she instead repeatedly asked him to stop while discreetly channelling her aura to her ears to prevent the first year from damaging them, just when it was starting to look like she would have to get a little more insistent back up arrived in the form of her older friend.

Team CRDL was the embodiment of everything Blake hated. Arrogant, rude, racist, and entitled, and Cardin Winchester was the worst of the lot.
Glancing up from her book it didn't take long to locate him in the midst of another one of his attempts to bully the rest of the school into submission.
So far he'd been keeping it too mostly minor things and only amongst the first years but now it looked like he'd be learning the error of his ways sooner than she'd thought.
There was a reason bullies didn't survive long at Beacon.
Gritting her teeth she had to stop herself from rising, it looked like Velvet was starting to get fed up too. Cardin was an idiot if he thought that he could take her if she was showing anything other than the perfectly polite manner she was now displaying.
But even she had her limits, much longer and Cardin might find himself waking up in the Med Bay sans a few teeth.
Just when it looked like Cardin was about to have his face kicked in a hand caught hold of Cardin's arm.
Max Caulfield had arrived.
Everyone in the hall was watching now, she almost couldn't help the small smirk that was making its way across her face.
She could hear Ruby let out a squeak next to her and she didn't need to turn around to know all of the others at the table were having similar reactions.
The headmaster's younger sister was well known not to tolerate bullies or those who picked on those under her protection, and Velvet Scarlatina was most definitely under her protection.
Max's fingers clenched, clamping down hard, fingers digging into several of the nerve points along Cardin's arm and making him let go of the pair of rabbit ears in his hand like they were fire.

An: So... Does Velvet remind Max of someone from a past life maybe? Kate was also associated with rabbits and I think Max would definitely identify Velvet with her.
