Tyrian: True but it's hard to imagine him not trying to hurt Jaune. The way he looks as Jaune as he's prepared to slice him from behind is pretty intense. Beating him to a pulp would still be pretty bad. If Salem tells him to keep away from Ruby as to keep his emotions in check he would. Anything could really happen at this point. Maybe Tyrian sees Jaune as the weak link and tries to use him to lure the others. Then he'd get a chance to see what's up with him with the excuse of baiting Ruby.

JNR isn't staying with Ruby and Qrow so anything could happen before they meet up. Jaune is also the only one out of the crew in Mistral that's leery of what Ozpin and his people are doing. He may suspect Lionhart or Watts and investigate.

Ozpin could have meant Hazel has a short temper and would hurt children. Or he could have been ensuring Oscar didn't draw attention by acting weird since he was feeling Ozpin's emotions. Oscar did have an emotion reaction to their meeting we just don't know what he was feeling. Plus Oscar hasn't stopped talking out loud when Ozpin is speaking to him. That tends to draw attention.

True. It might be harder for Ruby too. She did say that she wasn't a good fighter before Qrow taught her. Maybe she was only able to improve with using a weapon.

Eyes/Souls/Powers: I'm thinking this is what's going to happen when Jaune finally does use his Semblance to full effect. His might be triggered by his friends being endangered.

Aura: Not exactly. Everyone can feel pain through their aura. Cardin feels pain from the punch while Jaune felt nothing. Force fields would also be able to enclose a bad guy and toss them about, used to float/fly, formed into weapons, etc.

One: Not really lords, the Huntsman in Shion just seemed like a normal guy defending a town he either lived in or was hired to protect. I think Jaune's dad was purposely keeping Jaune ignorant of things connected to Huntsmen.

Qrow and Tai: Yes Ironwood was talking to them all but what I mean is that no one was keeping the students at the school. They all wanted them to get out and survive. Tai is a teacher, he knows what that's like and shows no signs of blaming anyone for what happened. Ozpin did ask for help. Cinder would also be there for the Relic which would have hurt people.

Raven's Semblance: Yeah I don't think their blood related either. Not from the sound of the talk Raven has with Qrow.

Pyrrha: I see it as that and still not being able to speak out to protect others because she's not such an outspoken person.

Nora: I think she might of if Ren didn't privately rein her in. I think the others didn't take her seriously and Ren would probably remind her that they can't afford to get kicked out of Beacon.

Ren: Nora says she thinks it's weird that Jaune is hanging out with Cardin. Then Pyrrha kind of sarcastically remarks that she's sure their leader knows what he's doing. This had Nora and him sharing a look. They probably deduced something is going on.

Weiss: Yeah. At that point she doesn't care about Faunus. I don't think she hates Jaune, otherwise why sit at the same table, but she doesn't take the situation seriously.

Blake: We haven't really had much if any interaction between Jaune and her. According to RT she was the one who told Weiss she could tell them that she was a faunus so she trusts all of JNPR. Still she's sitting at the same table with JNPR and their the team they hang out with the most. I think she had a narrow focus and just didn't take Jaune's situation as a priority.

Yang: I don't think we have evidence that she doesn't like Jaune. She thought he was weird at first yeah but she never tried to get Ruby away from him. She thought Weiss was too mean to him in VOL. 2 and patted him on the head comfortingly when Weiss turned him down.

Ruby: She could have gotten the others to see how serious it was and it's obvious that other than Pyrrha, her and maybe Nora that no one else thought it was a big deal. If he and Velvet had everyone's support it would have gone along way to show they weren't alone.

I wish we had a timeframe since they made it seem like a big deal that Jaune was picked on from the first week forward. We're not told or shown a lot but I got the impression we were supposed to assume both teams were growing pretty close. They lived across the hall from each other. With Pyrrha being lonely, Ren/Nora having no one else and Jaune eager to make friends I find it hard to believe they didn't try to get close right away.

Probably not although I think some plotlines like the entrance exam will come back into the plot.

Ozpin and Jaune: He does do better than most would. I wonder if it has to do with what Ozpin said about dancing being similar to fighting. Jaune could be learning at a faster rate than people realize. Everyone else besides Ruby has at least four years training before Beacon on him. Jaune was able to hold his own against someone training longer than him in the Vytal match up.

I always assumed the average mook Ruby fights is what a normal person with aura is like. They don't get killed but their out of the fight pretty fast.

Not all. Against the Deathstalker he's able to block a hit without being moved. He also held up the huge Ursa's arm with his shield to protect Cardin.
