RWBY: Rehabilitation

Description

"...The process is never easy, the patient will require a long period to learn to interact with her new limb, this implies considerable physical stress during the first weeks, not to mention the additional psychological implications, add to that the fact she is suffering PTSD and I can assure you she will need all the help you could bring to her..."

"...We live in a world where men and women have to become like the weapons they wield, efficient, unbreakable and reliable, the question remains, how long until youngsters lose their dreams and hopes under such pressure, their souls washed away in anger, resentment and bitterness, until all that remains is the Phantom Pain of a kind heart ripped apart by Mars, Mammon and Phobos..."

"...There was always a price to pay, I cannot ask you to be a hero, I will not lie to you with promises of happy endings and earthly utopias, I can only offer you my tears, and the smile of soldiers marching to the fray to defend those we cherish, for them, for us, for you..."

By this point I think some of you may have seen the last episodes of season 3 of RWBY, I have been a fan of the show too, but I never attempted to make any fanart, perhaps I though I wasn't that good, or not the theme, then everything went darker and edgier and things happened.

I have seen a lot of people automatically thinking Yang just needs a brand new robotic arm and things will be magically fixed, some even joked about it, well, I think is not that easy, you see, physical injuries, particularly those who let the victim crippled, are not that easy to deal with it, add to that how Yang's reputation was destroyed in a worldwide broadcast, the fact RWBY team has disbanded, Beacon is in ruins and overrun by grimms and... Well, you get the idea.

And if my suspicions are correct, Rooster Teeth is going to show how hard is to deal with all of this, no easy happy endings, this is no longer your Adventure Time show, in fact, it never was, but the story about children turning into adults and dealing with that, and you know what? I think that is correct, because most of us will, or already have had to face hard choices, and pay for them, that's what I think is in essence to become a real adult.

Anyway, sorry for the moral tirade, but I guess sometimes we need to remind ourselves some life lessons. As for the drawing I guess it's self-explanatory, surgery, cybernetics, rehab, lots of pain, hard work, I really really hope Yang gets better, also I hope cybernetic replacements keep advancing more and more.

PS: And why the heck is that Cinder appears in category suggestions?

The sad part about the whole thing now that I'm finding this years later, is that while they touched on Yang's PTSD and her issues with her team gone, Blake's betrayal, the loss of her arm... it was the fact that they barely touched on it and practically had nothing but 'A few months later' as their excuse for her being up almost like nothing happened. Even when she met with Blake again, nearly all of the issues that one would reasonably expect were glossed over.
