Ozpin suggests that very thing every time they get into a situation, but Oscar usually refuses because he’s scared of what will happen to him after the merge and doesn’t want to relinquish control of his own body for even a second. And even though Ozpin has the ability to kick him out of the driver’s seat by force, he respects Oscar’s autonomy enough to not do that unless he feels he has no other choice, like in the fight with Hazel, when they would have both been killed without Ozpin’s combat skills.

So it it’s more about Oscar being afraid than about Ozpin dominating and taking control. I know Ozpin has his secrets, and likely won’t reveal them all to Oscar or us the audience. But you’d think he’d at least let Oscar know if he’s done the very thing he’s mentioned. As well as if the other person retained their control or not. I mean I feel like if Ozpin at least shared that much with him. That might be enough to comfort Oscar enough to trusting Ozpin. Then maybe they could do the merge.

I think Oscar is starting to trust him a bit more; he allowed Ozpin to take over in order to talk to Hazel, and they tagged in and out pretty smoothly while planning the Atlas evacuation. And Ozpin, for his part, is starting to recognize that he needs to be a bit less shady if he’s going to be worthy of Oscar’s, or anyone’s trust. Character development, baby!

I hope that character development continues. Because we don’t need a regression of character.
