Also, like hell it would make him an emo. That is Wangst, when the character angsts too much for too little (not the case here) or just angsts too often (which I fear may happen). Some angst makes sense given what he's been through, even if not as much compared to, say, Ruby or Blake. Lack of angst would be nonsensical, and would make him more unsympathetic. Ideally, Jaune would probably try to be light of heart enough to not bring people down, or just go through the journey a bit on the sullen side. On occaision though, his "emotion cup" as it were, will overflow, or his mental defenses will wear down with fatigue, and he might get a bit teary eyed (perhaps preferring to find a private place to do so, which Ruby might find him in one day, if she doesn't know about it already).
