1) Penny was created using technology that borders on magic

2) and since we now know magic is real, yeah. Penny got her soul using magic.

3) Maidens transfer powers to others, possibly the last person they see, or think about. Who does penny look at when she dies? Pyrrha!

4) I'm not saying a transfer occurred, just that I think if my two favorite dead red girls could come back, they would do so together.

5) Both Ruby and Jaune have heard Pyrrha in their heads

6) Since Oz built the machine that transfers spring maiden powers 1) Except there's no proof at all of that. And it doesn't even need to "border on magic". All she needs for a personality is an advanced-enough self-adaptive, self-learning AI. And making her body would be simpler than making the airships Atlas uses.

2) No proof of that. For all we know they just used the Aura Transfer Machine, or Penny just developed one herself along with her personality. No need for magic to be involved.

3) Except Penny is not a Maiden, never was implied to be one, and she wasn't even looking at Pyrrha when she died. And even if she did her mind would be focusing more on the fact that she was being ripped by her own threads at the moment.

4) But, that would be bullshit. Especially since Penny's most believable ways of coming back (being rebuilt) do not even involve Pyrrha at all, and have 0 reason to.

5) Wrong, only Ruby, and only in this thing called dreams. And it was just her last words.

6) Wrong, Atlas did it. And Atlas is the one Kingdom that has been making actual research on Aura, which shouldn't even involve Ozpin, since trying to understand this metaphysical energy that lets people do crazy shit and every being with a soul has is something that should be done in any case.
