Eternal Burden

“You’re one of the greatest Huntsman in the whole world,” Bartholomew said, “and yet I pity you. I pity you like I would a beaten dog.”

“I am a beaten dog.” Spoken so carelessly, with a tremendous belief that shook Bartholomew to his core. “Toothless and maggot infested, I scour the dirt for scraps to feed these tired, useless bones. But try to feed me, and I’ll bite your fingers off. I will.” Ozpin’s amused face grew angry and furious. “It’s my fault. The whole world is my fault. I only ever wanted to run free, but she caught me. My existence is just one dog fight after another, and I always lose. Now I’m just this pathetic, lowly, mangy beast. And I’ll bite you, too. I’ll bite you too. I’ll bite you too. I’ll bite you too—”

“Stop it—no!” Bartholomew reached out and grabbed the man by the shoulders. “Stop it. I won’t have that. I won’t.”

Ozpin scowled at him, drew his lips back, showing white teeth like he really was some old, beaten tired dog. Like he really would bite.

I really liked this part in @immortal-green-snom ‘s fic, so I illustrated it!

For no reason. Whatsoever.

No. It’s not because I thought the image of Ozpin snarling was hot.

………..I couldn’t resist.

Based off a scene in @immortal-green-snom ‘s fic !

Oscar with glasses for @hyperfixation-hideout and their anon -w-

~Ozpin Week Day 7: Free day

"Why did they destroy us? Or why did they leave me to tell the tale? I've spent most of my life turning that question over in my mind, and I believe the answer is the same: So that everyone would know the folly of placing their hopes and faith in one man." She looked away. "Not even a very good man."

The man knew that if she asked who he was, he would not be able to lie to her, as painful as the truth would be. But she didn't ask, and that hurt even more.

Instead, she turned her back on him and hobbled away. And he let her go.

Me finishing a piece before late at night? It's more likely than you'd think and by that I mean still not very likely.

This.... was made to be a companion piece to the day one piece I made. The idea behind it was that the theme would be 'Endings,' but I kinda messed up. I was supposed to put the beginning of 'The Infinite Man' as part of the caption to that image, so it'd match with the ending for this one, but i forgot. ope.

Anyway, it's been a fun week y'all. This is the first theme week i've ever participated in and I had a blast. Really cool seeing everyone's creations for the best trash wizard!
