[ Jaune meant retroactively if anything. The school is gone, that's true, but not in Jaune's heart. Despite everything that happened, Jaune loves Beacon for the opportunities he was given, the friends he had made, the lessons he learned...
One bad day doesn't wash all the happy ones away. Having said that, Jaune still has some contempt for other aspects of it. The Maidens deal in particular makes him upset, and later when he finds out that the Spring Maiden ran away because she wasn't quite ready either... well, it'll likely reaffirm Jaune's opinion that there has to be a better way. ]
I'm... not sure if I can live up to that reputation, heh...
[ Also said a little dryly, before remembering that he's still supposed to be angry. ]
Thanks, Professor. I'm... not sure if I'm ready to forget anything yet. I don't think I can... But we're on the same side.
[ Although it goes without saying that Pyrrha's side will always come first. ]
[ in quiet agreement. salem is the true enemy, here, and in-fighting is not only pointless, but suicidal. particularly if she shows up here, with her full powers and capabilities.
which reminds him: ]
But keep in mind, Mr. Arc, that not everyone may be so forgiving of a quick temper.
[ it's said gently enough -- understanding, because ozpin does understand why jaune acted the way that he did, and honestly, ozpin does not fault him for it. ]
I contain a great deal of power, but I cannot be two places in once should our enemy arrive. And I won't have the same level of surprise, that I did before, if Cinder and her allies make her way here.
[ there's a slight tap of his cane, against the ground. ]
Rely on your friends, and your teammates, if that day comes. Together, we can win, should we have the same goal in mind. I will not make the same mistake twice.
[ Neither will Pyrrha - or so they promised together. He believes it. ]
Second chances like this don't come often, right? ... Will you be telling everyone the whole story now?
[ Not that Jaune ever shared what he knows with Weiss, Yang or Blake. Even Pyrrha was better off not knowing the stupid way Remnant was created, but that world's lore hardly matters to her anymore.
In some ways, Jaune is a hypocrite for keeping Qrow's secrets after all. ]
[ on both fronts, and he seems tired at the prospect of having to go through the entire story, but -- what is done is done, and there is little left to do except fill in the blanks. ]
Whether or not it will put anyone at ease remains to be seen, but soon enough, we will all be on the same page, more or less. But I'm afraid I cannot tell you all what Salem is planning, or what she may do next -- I am in the dark as well as the rest of you, until this world grants me more information, or until Qrow arrives.
