Am I the only one that thought Ruby crying is one of the sadest things I've ever seen?

On that note though it almost seems like team RWBY and JNPR are slowly being torn arart. First Yang locking herself away because everyone thinks she's crazy, then Phyrra losing it over the whole Maiden thing, Jaune getting beat by Phyrra, Penny being destroyed and now it could be Ruby's turn.

I wasn't joking when I said Ruby crying was sad, I mean she's always been the classic happy, optomistic one, she even seemed happy when talking to her mother's grave. So I'm thinking this might be Ruby's breaking point. When she saw Penny's 'body' (Like alot of others have said, she's probs not dead) Ruby had a look of absolute defeat on her face before she fell to her knees and started crying. She might not even have the will to fight in this next battle with the grimm, or she might lose herself in rage (like Yang style, but a whole lot worse).

I'm not saying Cinder is targeting RWBY or JNPR, they might just be highly convient collatoral damage.
