Glynda finding Jaune in Vale after he gets out of the locker is an interesting idea. Do you have any specific ideas for how it plays out?
It’s mostly fueled by the idea that Glynda is the only adult unaccounted by the end of the Fall. Oobleck and Port are at the docks, Ironwood is martially his remaining troops, and Qrow is retrieving Ruby from the top of the tower. We know that Glynda is still on the ground fighting, we see her in new broadcasts later.
I figure Jaune wouldn’t be in any position to get himself to safety. With his high Aura and boatload of negative emotions, boy would be a Grimm magnet
In my head, Weiss tries to get Qrow to help her find Jaune (she was the last person he contacted after all) but Qrow would be occupied with Ruby (and Pyrrha’s remains). Glynda take over escorting Weiss back to the docks, but Weiss insists on finding Jaune
Glynda, of course, suspects by now that Pyrrha is dead. Ozpin’s magic is green, so it wasn’t him battling on the top of the tower, and she only knows one other person who knows Cinder is the Maiden. And since she didn’t come back down, it’s likely she is dead
Which means her hapless partner is missing somewhere in the apocalypse with nobody to defend him. Jaune has improved, but he’s a defensive Huntsman, better when fighting in a group. If he’s alone, and distraught as Weiss says, she doesn’t like his chances
Glynda’s lost too many students today. She doesn’t know how to tell Weiss that Jaune is probably already dead
