Dumb Of Them To Assume They Just Used One.

Ruby: daddy i have a boyfriend

Tai: really?

Ruby: his name is jaune.

Tai:(holding a shotgun) and where does jaune live?

Ruby:…

#she said with a huge smile on her face

Toko wants someone who’d sneak over to her room at night to see her.

Yang: *The next day*

Yang doesn’t know how to flirt okay?

(Seriously, who thought those pants were fine? In a tundra even. What the fuck.)

Yang: so jaune do you have any turn ons?

Jaune: thighs

Yang: really?

Jaune: yeah

Did you ever say what Zwei’s faunus trait is?

Fun fact. Fanaus Zwei as a baby use to bark like an actually dog before he started talking. Taiyang use to joke he had got a dog instead of another kid.

Good points on all fronts. A ton of people say Jaune should have a sidearm, but it just works better if it has an emotional meaning instead of just a practical one. It would be cute if Neo gave Jaune a little boot knife or something.

For Neo, if you were restarting it tomorrow, I’d say to just have her grab a spare cane of Roman’s, or spare parts? Have her rebuild it into a heavy derringer or flintlock thing, would suit her aesthetic more.

I have a question or rather a wish for a secondary weapon for jaune from volume 1 practically ... so if jaune and neo are together I couldn't teach him to use something like a dagger or a hidden weapon in his clothes something like the hidden dagger by assasincred (or whatever you type) or a pistol like the RK5 from COD

I agree Jaune could use some kind of variable attacks. Once I started writing for the characters, I realized how limited he can be. However, Jaune’s weapons have followed his character growth pretty well. 

Vol 1-3, Jaune began with the hand-me-down that his great great grandfather used to ‘fight in the war’ because he didn’t go to a combat school to make his own weapon. He faked his way into Beacon. He had to fake his weapon too, and probably snagged the one thing on the wall he could use. 

Vol 4-6, Jaune uses Miló and Akoūo to reinforce his shield and armor. The weapon can now become a longsword, focusing all of his defense into an offensive weapon. Why? Because he didn’t care about what happened to himself anymore, he cared about fighting Cinder again. He even says in the Vol 5 finale that his life didn’t matter anymore. 

Vol 7-8, we see Jaune shift away from offense (after his talk at Pyrrha’s statue with her mother) and focus on leading his team and defense. His shield can now cover 3 people easily, the gravity dust can repel anyone who gets close, and the shield grenade can protect the people he cares about that he can’t reach in time. 

If anything, I feel like Jaune might take Vine’s suggestion in extending his aura into his weapons. One possibility being what Qrow does. We saw in Vol 4 that Qrow can swing his sword at Tyrian and a building a dozen yards away loses its roof. And those gusts of air as Jaune swung his sword to Pyrrha’s videos might be the start of that

As for Neo  There’s this scene in my fic where she and Jaune go to meet Lil’ Miss Malachite. In my original version, Neo buys an ice dust pistol from her, expecting to have to deal with Cinder’s fire attacks. While expanding her range considerably, it didn’t feel right for her character. I’ve been considering incorporating a dust launcher like Roman had to her repertoire but we’ll see what Atlas has in store for her 

Yang: Jaune’s team is kind of a hot mess huh Ruby?

Ruby: R-Right... They sure are weird Yang...

*Ruby proceeds to have a flashback of Team RNJR’s hot-spring trip*

yang: wait you all bathe together?

ren: it was nora's idea

nora: team bathing build character

jaune: shes not wrong

Both, but also neither.

If you’re born an Arc, or if you’re adopted by an Arc, or if you marry an Arc, Salem’s your grandma now.

Generation doesn't matter, Adrian, Saphron, Terra, the Arc parents, Salem is ‘Grandma’.

Some say she’s been a part of the Arc family since before Crocea Mors was forged, some say she forged it herself...

In councilman arc, is Salem jaune’s grandma on his mother’s side or his father’s?

I...don’t actually care to determine that, honestly.

I seriously keep wanting to write a fic that starts with this, and they just end up landing within sight of each other.

Then they have to trek an indeterminate distance together to get to the evacuation point back at Beacon or back to Vale. Jaune wouldn’t have a clue who she is at this point in canon, I think?

Feels and bonding would happen, I have no idea what would happen once they were wherever they wanted to go though...

It’s not just that they both lost someone at Beacon. It’s that they couldn’t do anything to stop it.

If only there was someone around who could help heal serious wounds...

Boy, is that a dated reference...

You gotta admit, the ponytail is very cute compared to her more business first bun. But I am genuinely concerned about her gaining robot parts like Ironwood.

We desperately need to hear more about Team RASN (Raisin).

Weiss: Ruby, I think the headmaster is making fun of us with that name...

Jaune: Seems fine to me.

Weiss: *Glaring at the 6′ knight* Of course you’d say that...

Nora: Everyone likes raisins!

Weiss: *Glaring at the shortstack* OF COURSE YOU’D SAY THAT!

Can we just take a moment about an AU where Jaune ended up on a team with Ruby, Weiss, and Nora? Just one tall noodle with three smol girls.

...Jaune would deadass hide everything on the top shelves

And also do the koala sex thing with whomever among his team wants to be with him.

Oh, an Ruby sometimes uses him like a jungle gym.
