Now we seriously need a Team RNNJR Neo outfit.
And maybe a different Atlas one.
I don’t know what I’d do for either.
Consider: An AU where RNJR encounter Neo on the way to Mistral. After a tense standoff, they convince her that Cinder is her true target and that Ruby shouldn't be blamed for Roman's death. She reluctantly allies with them and then starts to realize she and the blonde one have a surprising amount in common. Against all odds, they bond over their shared past, goals, and maybe even find comfort in each other when emotions run high
You are describing my perfect version of the best Silent Knight AU timeline. Neo was already on her vendetta on Cinder. And a quick explanation by Ruby that it was a Grimm that killed him would only strengthen her resolve. And make a nice new hatred towards Grimm in time to help RNJR fight the Nuckelavee.
Bonus points if Neo catches Jaune training alone in the woods and confronts him. After hearing him out, Neo suggests she help Jaune train late at night.
Then at Haven, I think Neo really could have helped Jaune break out of his fatalistic drive to fight Cinder. He was ready to kill her or be killed. But after Weiss gets hurt and Cinder escapes, I think Neo and Jaune would have AMPLE time to talk about their trauma and feelings.
Can you imagine RNJR meeting Neo again after Beacon and seeing her in her torn up clothes, damaged parasol, and bowler hat? And while everyone else gears up to fight her Jaune just stares at her hat while he holds onto Pyrrha’s sash???
I just finished my first of the spotify writing prompts and you might be VERY interested in when it takes place.
Shout out to my friend @knightfallcravin for getting their art posted on the RWBY subreddit. Legit mage me smile! ❤️💙💜💛
Pyrrha’s love/lust is so strong that she refused to die without telling Jaune how she really feels....and getting her cheeks clapped by said blond dork.
So her soul comes back to the world of the living and binds with one of her friend’s body to be able to survive.
Now it wouldn’t be a problem if it was a friend like Ruby (who has a crush on Jaune), or Yang (who wants to bang Jaune), or even Nora (who would happily sleep with Jaune if it helped Pyrrha), but no.
Instead Pyrrha’s soul gets stuck in the body of one Lei Ren. Her one other male friend.
Pyrrha grabs her new round and soft, bubble butt and smiles. Oh well, She’ll work with what she’s got.
I was gonna joke Pyrrha might have them, for this exact reason. She toys with them using her semblance. Often when she studies or trains with Jaune.
Like others said, Weiss would want them, for rebellion. But she’d probably be terrified to actually go anywhere to get them done. In case she’d get recognized and ratted out.
And yeah Blake might have them, broody riot girl energy and all. Bonus points if she had Ilia pierce them while they were in the fang. That poor gay lizard.
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.
Vernal: What about these two? *tears open her shirt*
jaune: gimme one reason why i shouldnt kill you.
vernal: because we're alone and we know theres a sexual tension between us
jaune:...
vernal:
Now I’m just imagining an AU where Winter decides that if she’s going to be the maiden, she should probably get a partner/bodyguard to keep her from getting Amber’d.
And here comes Mr.Tall, Blond, and Sturdy. A bit undertrained, but strong and smart and loyal in all the ways she’d need to start with. If Weiss and her team’s stories were reliable. She’d have little trouble turning him into a huntsman a cut above most.
The fact that many of the Civilian Inquiries asking after his performance emphasizes him being ‘wonderful with children’ and ‘husband material’ is just an added bonus.
Jaune: ugh man what a workout
Winter: (leaning against the wall) please dont stop on my account.
Jaune: w what are you doing here?
Winter: i was just passin by. Seeing how you were and (looks him up and down) i have to say. Nice
Jaune: thank you.
Winter: however i feel you need a spotter
(Pushes jaune back on the bench rack and sits on top of him)
Jaune: (blushing)
Winter: im goinh to work you boy
Councilman Arc: Jaune begins to call out Atlas on its treatment of Mantle and the parasitic nature of the relationship as Atlas rarely shares anything that they can’t rip away in an instant. This forces Atlas to better their treatment of Mantle and leads to the Happy Huntresses wanting to show Jaune just how happy he’s made them.
One visit was all it took. His very first travel to Atlas, as part of diplomatic relations. All he wanted was to visit Mantle once, to see it. Some of the politician said that there was not much to see.
Jaune saw enough.
He realized just how dependent Atlas was of Mantle. They relied on the city below on just about anything. And how were they repaid? With scorn.
Scorn, ridicule and even more corruption.
Jaune forced their hand. He informed Ironwood that the ill treament of Mantle was attracting Grimm and would cause a catastrophe in the long run.
Hence, the support for Mantle was enforced. Ironwood gained some support among Mantle for the move, even if some Atlas dwellers accused the man of kowtowing to a youngling beginner in the great game of politics.
Ironwood was no politician, however, so he could give a fuck.
Added bonus for Jaune was that his efforts did not go unnoticed by a certain group within Mantle. The Happy Huntresses were a volunteer group that was thinning out Grimm beyond the walls of Mantle, thus supporting the sparse military presence up to the reforms allocating resources for it.
The blonde received...a gift basket.
Not what he thought, given the trend, but he’d gladly take it. Some ham, sweets, a few pieces of fruit and...
And there it was.
A piece of paper with a scroll number, which also read “Call me″. Although that could mean anything.
And hey, he had a lot to learn, and this woman could maybe teach him a thing or two.
Six minutes of pure and pasionate lancaster love
Great as always, now I've got a sudden need to see Elm blushing in a wedding dress.
How about some Elm × Jaune?
(sure)
Elm Ederne was not a woman Jaune would have thought he ended up dating.
He didn’t mind at all, though.
Elm was a giant of a woman, strong as hell and quite feisty. She didn’t hesitate to ask him out when he caught her interest and then drag him into an unusual wrestling date.
Those who said not to have sex on the first date never met Elm, who went with the flow and simply snuck into the showers after the two of them getting sweaty.
Which was where jaune discovered something rather adorable of the usually tough woman.
Once in the afterglow, she became a cuddly teddy bear, desiring affection and kisses, turning any consequent rounds into a mellow, loving and slower affair.
Which brough them to now. Jaune had just finished turning Elm into her cuddle bug self, thoroughly enjoying her huge and soft body against his own. It was always a refreshing change whenever her Nora-esque demeanor gave way to this.
“ready for another round?” It was not really an ask; he knew she was up for it. Though, just as she rolled over, letting him be on top and greeting him with a loving smile, the door burst open.
“For fucks sake, you two!” Vine snarled. “It’s been two hours now! Get the fuck to sleep!”
Apparently according to The Grimm Campaign (I haven't watched it yet) Qrow is exactly that, he’s a well known, celebrity Huntsman.
I’ve seen a few people on here justify people not recognizing him on sight by comparing him to Tony Hawk, you know the name but not the face, or you don’t recognize him unless he’s doing Hunter stuff.
Glynda should have equivalent levels of fame, even if she’d realistically be known more for being Deputy Headmistress of Beacon.
Other than that, it’d have to be filed under ‘when would they talk about that’ like @pugsanity brought up. Like, how often do you just talk about famous people with the people you hang out or live with?
I find it weird that there aren't any celebrities in RWBY.
Sure, Pyrrha was a known fighter but only Weiss knew about her because she cares about upper class/talented people.
Where are all the famous singers and writers? Surely someone wrote Blake's favorite books.And why don't more people document Grimm species? The only memorable book that talks in detail about that is the one about the apathy, and that was just a farm log record.
There should be tons of famous authors that are/were famous hunters, yet we have no records of their specific adventures.
And what about music bands? You're telling me there aren't any huntsmen/singer idol groups out there? Team SSSN would make a great boyband!
Its like anyone that's influential/important is either a criminal, in the military, or a politician, and any form of artistry is relegated to "common" people and not talked about.
