[ Damn. That explains some degree of the response, too. Ozpin is so very tired of everything to do with James Ironwood. ]
He has taken it as a betrayal, which is... understandable. I do not begrudge him his anger. I am more concerned by his despair.
I do not know how James Ironwood responds to despair, except with increasingly drastic action. I will be keeping a close eye from here out, should he let me.
We are not out of the woods, so to speak. But it did not end in a fight.
