[ he's quiet as he listens, his heart sinking with each word. wreckage. destruction. rebuild in a different location. the school is truly gone, and vale has fallen with it. his home, for as long as he can remember -- the tower, and courtyard, and the halls... the vytal tournament was supposed to be a symbol of unity, and it tore vale -- and beacon -- apart.
to know he may never be able to go back is heartbreaking, and he knows it's entirely a sentimental thing -- the school is not what is important, the building is not what is important, but it is ozpin's life's work. he has transformed beacon academy into an institution that produces the best huntsmen and huntresses in remnant. good, honorable people, who stand for what is right, and fight against evil, and protect what is just.
and now it's gone.
he's silent after glynda finishes speaking, lost in his own thoughts, but once he seems to realize glynda has finished speaking, he looks over at her with a faint smile. ]
I don't know if the students are ready for Headmistress Goodwitch.
[ in amusement, his thoughts brightening for a second at the idea. he can only imagine team rwby attempting to sneak away underneath glynda's command. ]
But I would want no one else to take over in my absence.
