If Nora ever even remotely thought of talking about any serious goals with ANYONE, Ren would be her number-1 choice, because she's the person she trusts and likes the most out of the entire cast.

And one doesn't even need to be super-close to someone else to tell them about their life goals.

it's side info, so they might try to include it, but it'd still end up either wasting time or left on the cutting room floor. Look, in Volume 5 we got 2/3s of a season's worth of sitting and talking. Mostly about stuff that did not move the plot or was even necesary, like Ruby asking Ozpin if his cane is a Relic, which is so stupid and unnecesary it's literally there just to shut up the kids who insisted it was.

So, let's say they do it again. Scenes where the plot isn't moving forward, people are just talking. In that case, have those scenes focus on giving depth and/or development to the characters, including Nora.

Boom. The main plot didn't need to change, even RT's MO doesn't need to change, and Nora (and others) can get development that way. Not so hard.
