Talk:Leonardo Lionheart/@comment-2602:306:3494:D090:417F:63FC:B900:753-20180202231706

As cowardly as he was, a commentor on one analysis video pointed out that if Leo really wanted Salem's mercy, he would've mentioned Ozpin's new vessel had showed up at the Haven Battle. But Ozpin's name didn't even come up during his plea to Salem. Either Leo wasn't thinking straight due to panic and desperation, or maybe there was a small part of him that WANTED to die. Leo does regret betraying Ozpin and knows he doesn't deserve forgiveness for the things he did for Salem. He could've easily told her about Oscar to at least buy him more time. But maybe, just maybe, he delibrately kept Oscar's existance from Salem and pointed his weapon at the seer grimm as a form of suicide, so he could finally be free of Salem and face the judgement of all the huntsmen he betrayed. Admittedly, it's far fetched, but I believe underneath all begging and screaming, Leo intentionally put the final nail in his own coffin.
