Goddamnit... One last bit for this. I swear. And of course it's out of order, it involves time travel.

Jaune, in cowboy clothing for Vale of over 100 years ago, makes it back to Beacon after riding the Gelorean back to the future via railway. The Gelorean was destroyed, trapping Doc back in the past. He walks out into the courtyard. His friends, all back to normal, are chatting and relaxing. His parents (and his foster sister Cinder) look up and see him.
Nick: "Jaune!"
Isabel: "Jaune?"
Cinder: "Hey Jaune!"
They get up. His friends soon follow. Ruby blinks.
Ruby: "What's with the get up?"
Nick: "You thinking of a cowboy look? I think you make it look good, son."
Yang: "Heh!" She smirks and hugs her boyfriend's arm "Looking to ride me, partner?"
Ruby: blush "YANG!"
Summer laughs.
Summer: "Aw, let her tease him, it's good for couples!"
Yang frowns at the look on Jaune's face.
Yang: "Hey... You okay?"
Jaune: "I..." sighs "I just..."
Isabel: "You know you can tell us anything, Jaune. Right?"
Pyrrha: "Yes... Anything you need to."
Cinder: "Yeah. You look like you've been through hell."
Jaune laughs a little.
Jaune: "Oh... You might say that..."
Ozpin: "Ahem. Hello everyone. Would you mind terribly if I talked with Mister Arc alone for a bit?"
Cinder: scowls at her little brother "What did you do?"
Nora: "And why didn't you invite us along?"
Jaune: "I uh... I'll be right back."
Ozpin guides Jaune away.
Ozpin: "Well, good to see you again, Mister Arc... Or should I say, Calvin Klein, Michael Corleone and Clint Eastwood?" little smile
Jaune: "Wha-How-?!"
Ozpin: "We've actually met a few times during your various journeys." chuckles "It is fortunate that due to my nature, I am immune to changes in the timeline. I didn't know I was, actually."
Jaune: "You-Your nature?! You mean you remember that nightmarish future and the past and the present-?"
Ozpin: "Yes Mister Arc. It's been so long since I've been so surprised. I take it your little train hijacking was successful?"
Jaune: downcast "Not... Not completely."
Ozpin: smiles "I wouldn't worry about Doctor Brown. You both have a great quality of perseverance. Indeed, that will be useful in the coming days."
Jaune: "What do you mean, coming days?" He shook his head "You-You don't want the time machine, do you?! It's wrecked, and I wouldn't even know where to begin to fix it, Doc's gone, and using it is-!"
Ozpin: "-Insanely dangerous? I am well aware. I'm not going to ask for that power. It is far too risky. But one man can make the difference. One group of people can change the world. I'm sure you're well aware of this by now. I think you will be able to make great change even without time travel, Mister Arc. You and your friends."
Jaune: "Well... That's good to hear."
Ozpin: "Also... Miss Xiao-Long?"
Yang hurries over, concerned.
Yang: "Yes, Headmaster?"
Ozpin guides them outside the courtyard, near an abandoned railroad track. He checks his pocket watch.
Ozpin: "Yes... I believe you will want to step back a bit in three... Two... One-"
SONIC BOOMS! Jaune and Yang are blown back as a gigantic steamtrain with advanced technology all over it appears.
Ozpin smiles, and closes his pocket watch.
Ozpin: "Right on time."

How would Ozpin and Salem react to time travel?
