-With my last line I meant, that you tried to counter my theory by saying that basically, if she got Earth Dust, why did her dress only glow Red (Fire) and Yellow (Lightning) instead of some other color (Earth)?

I revoked that with a question: With her infiltration outfit, her forearms glowed orange when she summoned the swords. How could it glow orange, if she only had Fire (Red) and Lightning (Yellow)? And probably Ice, but that's a whole different color. While Red+Yellow=Orange, Fire+Lightning=Wildfire, or more fire. There's no way Fire+Lighting=Obsidian.

Do note that it couldn't have been in the canisters, because then why would her forearms in the clothing glow?

-Or, "naturally" could mean they can combine on their own given enough time and with certain ambiental triggers, while "artificially" means one can combine them through more external methods. Which is exactly what happens with many substances in RL. They either combine on their own, or we make them combine, one way or another.

You could use machines, you could let nature do it, or something else. They can combine through all those means.

-So, back when Pyrrha unlocked Jaune's Aura, they were not glowing, it was their (invisible) Dust glowing? Is that what you wanted to tell me with that point?

-Only her projectile, though. When she incinerated Glynda's improvised "spears", there was nothing similar to lava. Only ashes, which is closer to fire than magma.

-You want a simple answer? Fire Dust allows you to perform Lava-like "spells". Monty wanted RWBY to feel at least somewhat like a videogame. In videogames (and many other works) Lava-like abilities are associated with the Fire element. See my point?

Now, "how did she make Obsidian then? Even if Fire Dust could be used to make Lava appear, she couldn't have made Obsidian with just that". Here's another simple answer: Earth Dust, girl. She used Fire and Earth Dust simultaneously.

Now, "how is Earth Dust obtained then?". Simple answer: Fire Dust + Another type, probably Water Dust (it makes sense why...but it's hard to explain). Once she got the Earth Dust prepared, she put it somewhere, not necesarily in her outfit, and later used it along Fire Dust to make the Obsidian by using the Earth Dust to make Sand. There you go.

Now, "is Earth Dust the Orange Dust?", possibly. Would make sense considering most of the actual earth is some shade of orange or brown. Lava sometimes seems orange, but can also look very very red (indeed, the Sun, made entirely of it, actually can be seen as more red when you are closer to it).

-Why are you so damn fixated in "Orange=Lava", Chishio? It kinda feels like you hardly believe in anything else. You're starting to sound like me.
