*** She goes noticeably silent when Jaune notes that all of that can be avoided if she allows humanity to live.
*** The final push is the therapy session that Salem herself asked for. Trying to figure out how Ozpin is able to live and function far better than her. Jaune's response, while bland, is fairly obvious: [[MundaneSolution Mindless Busywork]]. While his primary goal is still to stop Salem, he also has to manage various other things that keep him occupied, whereas she would lay around being listless because she only had the one goal in mind, with nothing else to do. It's the final straw needed to let her allow everyone to live; making Jaune the only one to have stopped a immortal being on a relentless crusade - even if only temporarily for a hundred years - not through strength or strategy, but by treating her like someone who needed someone to talk to.

*** Jaune has a genial chat with the [[EldritchAbomination corrupted human]] over several hours. Giving her someone ''sane'' to talk to for the first time in god knows how long while he notes how human she still is, and in the process ingratiating himself with her while recognizing that she's suffering from depression from their first meeting.
*** He manages to get Ozpin and Salem in the same room to let her [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech hash it out]] with him, and finally vent some of her anger that she'd been holding onto for the last several millennia, further getting into her good graces for it, and for actively getting in Ozpin's way whenever he tried to get snarky.
*** Jaune shows a little of his ingenuity when, after getting challenged to combat by Salem, leads her onto one of the launch platforms used for Initiation, and then launches her out into the Emerald Forest, making her lose the battle and have to stay the night at Beac- er, sorry, [[InsistentTerminology Ozma Sucks Academy.]]
*** Everyone showers her with various goods invented by Humankind, while simultaneously informing her that all of it would be lost, should she actively decide to wipe them all out.
*** He makes her realize that if she obtains her goal, she'll have nothing left to [[AndThenWhat live for]].

In reality, he only brought Knowledge. Choice and Creation were actually a box of cigarettes and a broom.
