[and yet another one returning! he was someone that was here briefly, but he had also wanted to try and change everything for the better here. ironwood had been warned about the coming and going of people as well, and he certainly took that into consideration upon waking up here again. no matter, he would just need to continue on.

so, ironwood was now sitting comfortably, looking into the camera with a newly found determination.]

Good day, people of Genessia. I am General Ironwood, and I was once here before. When I was here I attempted to gather up like minded individuals who shared the same views as me. What were those views you ask? Simply to better oneself with a little more training in whatever way one would need.

Of course, this is entirely optional, and we can talk more about if you wish.

[now then!] Also, I am entirely open to talking freely. I just came back after all, I would like to hear updates on everyone, and also hear from newcomers.

Locked; Weiss Schnee

Miss Schnee, would you be so kind as to inform me of any changes that have happened here since I was gone?

[Oh hey look awesome it's the only authority figure from Remnant besides his professors that Jaune doesn't absolutely despise!]

General Ironwood! Sir. General Ironwood sir. You're here! Were you still thinking of opening up some sort of more extensive training group?

[Video]

[ironwoody]

[because ironwood is a good hard-ass authority figure yupyup.]

But of course, Mister Arc. Are you interested in joining? [time to really test those skills boy.]

[Video]

[aurabble]

[And he seems the most honest and didn't die or get poisoned when shit got too real. Thanks Ozpin and Qrow.]

I'm always interested in training. [He's serious. Please let him learn from one of the best.]

[whiteas]

It's good to see you again, sir.

[ Despite that other Remnant youngsters might have complicated feelings about some of the adults, Weiss still respects Ironwood immensely. If anything, she's even more grateful than the last time they spoke- after all, he was the only one who had tried to stand up for her in Atlas. Having someone on her side who wasn't a peer, who was actually someone that her father considered a friend (or the closest thing he had to one), was notable. So it's not surprising that she genuinely looks pleased to see him. ]

There have been quite a few in the past year. I'm sure you'll hear from my father in a few minutes for example. He's currently the mayor of Nova City. As such given our ethical differences, I've recently resigned as City Guardian. Winter just arrived a few days ago, you'll be happy to note, and Whitley is here too.

[ Basically, have your pick of the Schnees. Though speaking of Schnees, she'll certainly give him a courtesy heads up. ]

In case Father hasn't screamed at you over it yet, I did in fact smuggle myself out of the kingdom shortly before you closed the borders so he may have some gripes to air. [ And a very brief pause before a quieter. ] I apologize for locking you in his office with him.

[ironwoody]

Good to see you as well, Miss Schnee.

[of course he stood up for her, he truly thought that she was one of the only people that had a brain in atlus.]

Ah, so Jacques is here now as well? No matter, I can handle that man and whatever sort of tactics he may try and throw at me. Our last conversation didn't end... on acceptable terms. But that's fine.

[SO MANY SCHNEES HERE!] Noted, I will be talking to your sister shortly then.

[...oh, so that was her trick then, was it?] ..And just why did you do that? Afraid that I was about to tell your father about you?

[but also-] ...And may I ask why you resigned as City Guardian?

[hamusukethewise]

I am interested in training, that I am.

[ironwoody]

Excellent. What sorts of skills do you possess?

[monkeystowaway]

This place seems to be bringing back a lot of people lately. Welcome back, General Ironwood.

Video

[ironwoody]

Bringing back good faces, I hope.

[he nods at the boy.] And you as well, Mister Wukong.

[specialist_snowflake]

Sir!

[Of course the first image of Winter will be a salute. How else would you greet your highly esteemed commanding officer? She's definitely surprised to see him, but she had the luxury of being able to school her emotions and her expression into pristine professionalism.]

I must apologize. Having only arrived recently myself, I am still in the process of gathering information. For the moment, the five cities appear to be experiencing a state of peace, though I understand there was an incident four months ago where one of the barriers was breached. I lack the details, but I will inquire into the matter further.

[Video]

[ironwoody]

[ironwood placed his hands behind his back, straightening up as he stared at her and listened. he was her commanding officer, and it was time to speak to her as one.]

An incident? ...Good, I will be awaiting the details and I expect to hear back from you soon.

I will be starting back up a militia that I had planned to put into action when I was here before. I trust that you will be joining as well. [and that wasn't a question, it sounded more like an order.]

[video]

[poshture]

A good day to you as well, General.

[ All pleasantries, perfectly emulated on the surface even if his feelings towards the man are less than stellar. Sorry, Ironwood, Jacques still more or less has hooks in this Schnee child. ]

I'm sure we'll all benefit greatly from the presence if a man with your level of worldly experience.

[video]

[ironwoody]

[this lil shit.]

But of course, there is much to be done here and I will do everything in my power to rise to the occasion.

[video]

[sarcaskick]

If it's updates you want, then hoo boy are you gonna be here a while.

[video]

[ironwoody]

[this guy.]

Then let's hear it, explain what you know.

[ivegotadream]

Better oneself with training? Is that physically or mentally?

video;

[ironwoody]

Both. A person can never be too cautious.

[solar_flare]

[Whoa, Ironwood is here! Yang wasn't expecting to run into him this soon, but since he's here...]

Dad said you're the one who sent me this.

[She holds up her hand, turns it slightly, and flexes the fingers into a fist as she smiles.]

Thanks. Really, it's...done a lot, to help me pick myself up and move forward.

[Video]

[ironwoody]

[aha, he smiled at her.]

Of course, it was one of the first things to do once we all left Beacon. You fought admirably, you deserved that reward. Good job, Miss Xaio Long.

[Video]

[mother_of_monsters]

Well, hello gorgeous. [There's what it seems to be a cat-person looking at the post with interest. Dray smile after a few seconds, one of his ears twitching.] I don't think we ever talked before, I just arrived a few months ago. My name is Dray, nice to meet you.

[Video]

[ironwoody]

[gorgeous... well that certainly doesn't move him at all.]

And as I stated, I am General Ironwood. How have you been doing in this place?

( video )

[polearity]

General Ironwood... ( this feels awkward.
maybe about as awkward as she looks, shifting around with the device in her hands. )

I... hadn't realized you were here before.

( video )

[ironwoody]

[what? pyrrha is here?! he stared at her, wide eyed, before realizing that there are many people here that have been killed in the past. pyrrha was one of their best plans, but he also regretted, so deeply, what had happened to her that fateful night.

ironwood pinched the bridge of his nose, thinking, before he looked back to her.]

Miss Nikos, I will say that it is good to see you alive and well here. However I am deeply sorry for what happened that night at Beacon. You.... you fought so admirably, and so bravely. [she deserved better.]

[Video]

[mikotwin]

[A General?? Wooooooooh... He sounded so formal and, well, military. But it sounded like he was getting people together to grow stronger and that's exactly what Minori needed. And it looked like there were other, younger, people who knew him and weren't hesitating to speak up.]

Please excuse me, but I would be interested... My name is Minori.

[Video]

[ironwoody]

The more the merrier. It is good to meet you, Miss Minori. I will be setting up a training day and you are happy to come and attend.
