User blog:ChishioKunrin/V3E3 - Some little things I noticed

When I watched the episode, I noticed one thing right off the bat and decided on two things I wanted to look at frame by frame. So, now we're here.

The thing I noticed right off the bat is something that I'm sure everyone else noticed: the little detail of seeing Ruby walking toward the crowd during the wide shot.

When I brought up the episode to go frame by frame, I wanted to look at the fight (of course), and I also wanted to check if you can actually see Ironwood approaching the fight.

So... First off, we've got Winter's birds. It turns out, they're actually white Nevermores! Their models seem a bit wonky, but they're pretty cool. It's possible they're made of condensed steam or something. Though, the only reason I think that is because Next...
 * 1) Miles mentioned during Extra Life 2015 that fire + water = steam, when talking about Dust.
 * 2) Winter made a white cloud to hide in during the fight.
 * 3) When Qrow hit the birds, they poofed into white semi-transparent clouds.

When Winter first put up a glyph behind her and got into her stance, a light blue glow traveled down the blade of one of her swords, from the hilt to the tip, and then disappeared.

Her weapon is really confusing. It's hard to tell what type of Dust she's using, exactly. It's possible that the blue glow has to do with the light that appeared when she charged toward Qrow shortly after this, but what is the nature of that light?

Also, don't mind that white silhouette in the background. 'Tis just a ghost that haunts Beacon.

And, yes, you can actually see Ironwood approaching, but only after Qrow puts his sword away.
