I am both nervous and excited to see what happens next.

I think he is indeed internally screaming, just trying to prioritize the current situation instead of the possibly eternal long run.
 * Thinks back to Fria* This...might get weird.

Everyone was afraid of how Ironwood would react, no one in the group wanted to be "the one to break him". If their own reaction, Lionheart's betrayal (who wasn't the first one to do so, as Ozpin said), one of Ozpin's eyes pleading to drop the fight and a General who kept making decisions badly received by his own kingdom was all they had to go for ... I can't really blame them to be that afraid.

Now comes what Ren implied back in A Night Off: What are they going to do now that they worked past Ironwood's reaction?
