Title: Does Ruby suffer from Yoda Syndrome?
Post by: LittlefootAndAliTogether on January 05, 2015, 04:30:34 AM

She talks kind of similar to Yoda, except that she talks forward too.

Yoda goes:  Into exile I must go.  Failed I have.

Ruby would go:  I must go into exile because I failed.  Because I failed, I must go into exile.

The only times I can think of where Yoda talked forward are some of his most famous quotes:

Yoda:  Fear is the path to the Dark Side.  Fear leads to anger.  Anger leads to hate.  Hate leads to suffering.

And his last words:

There.....is.....another......Sky.....walker.

Anyway, are there any similarities between Ruby's and Yoda's speech patterns or am I mistaken?

You are not mistaken; I find that Ruby's speech patterns are similar to that of Yoda. Yoda Syndrome; good way of describing Ruby's speech patterns.
