Little does Jaune know that taming a literal big cat is the traditional way you get permission to marry a Belladonna girl. It's how Ghira got to marry Kali even.
“It’s the law.”
“What law!?”
There was chaos once the news broke. Taming Mittens the tiger cub, apparently, meant that one was eligible to marry a Belladonna.
Kali was adamant about that part, and Jaune’s mom only encouraged her. The pressure was now on their children to make some babies.
Good.
Blake was, suitably, about as embarrassed about this as Jaune was. Pyrrha was angry at her, too.
But!
And hear her out here...
Mittens is shoooo cuuuuute~
I half want it to go like:
JNR Runs into Cinder again while Atlas is going to hell.
Jaune and Cinder end up tug-o-warring the lamp.
Jaune: Seriously! Why are you like this!?
Jinn: Well since you want to know...
And Jaune (and Nora & Ren (and Neo?)) get Tragic Backstory poured into their ears.
Could even play the long game with it, have it shown that they get told about it in the middle of action, but save anything but reactions and hints to the audience until things calm down again. Heck, you can have Team JNR narrate Cinder’s backstory to Team RWBY (and the audience), even have them still keeping some things hidden.
Jaune: And then, Salem found her...
Nora: Well, before that there was-
Jaune: Salem found her, Nora!
I remember hearing once that Cinder isn’t Ruby’s villain, she’s Jaune’s (and JNPRs as a whole), and I’ve only believed it more since. And having JNR seeing Cinder’s past like RWBY saw Salem’s would pretty much prove it permanently for me.
Sudden thought, think we'll learn Cinder's past in flashbacks like Ren and Nora's? Or that the heroes or one or two heroes will actually be told it or learn of it?
War of the roses headcanons?
War of the Roses Headcanons
Ruby likes being sandwiched between Jaune and Weiss when they sleep
It makes her feel comfortable and safe to have her lovers beside her
Jaune is usually super hot in the middle of the night, with Ruby in a blanket burrito next to him
Meanwhile, Weiss usually ends up freezing in the night, clinging to Ruby’s blankets
Weiss likes getting piggyback rides from both Jaune and Ruby, but only when they’re indoors
Jaune and Ruby make tons of food puns while grocery shopping, while Weiss pretends she doesn’t know them
Then they started texting her the puns
She can’t escape
She secretly appreciates the puns, but they embarrass her
Why did My first thought frame this as advice Summer gave (or left for) Ruby?
Either she’s still alive or she wrote up some psuedo-diary for Ruby and Yang full of all the advice she could think of in case [REDACTED] happened.
File one more under ‘Fanfic ideas I’ll probably never write.’
Step 1: Make Yourself Known
Ruby: Hi. I'm Ruby Rose. What's your name?
Jaune: Ruby. We already know each other.
Step 2: Make Sure He Always Around You.
Nora: Jaune-Jaune. How come Ruby sleeping in the same bed as you?
Jaune: She said she wanted to sleep over.
Ruby:*stick her tongue out and snuggled next to Jaune*
Step 3: Fend Off Unwanted Foes
Cinder: Hai Jaune. I was wandering that if we could...never mind, I just remembered I got plans with Emerald. Bye! *Ran off*
Jaune: I wonder what's that all about.
Ruby:*holding her sycthe and glare at her foes* Stay away you husssiess...
Step 4: Always make sure he and everyone know how cool he is.
Ruby:*On top of table in cafeteria and using a speaker* JAUNE ARC HAS A HUGE DI...HMPHH!
Jaune clamped Ruby's mouth and dragged her out of the cafeteria
Step 5: Make sure he know that you needed him
Ruby: Jaune! Please open this jar pickle for me! It is so tight!
Jaune:*simply opened it with a small pop* Here you go Rubes.
Ruby: Thank you my strong knight.
Jaune: What?
Ruby: Nothing! *Dashed away*
Step 6: If he still oblivious, use a bit force
Jaune:*Only wearing a towel* Ruby! Return my clothes!
Ruby:*sniff his clothes while running* Jaune~I love your scent. *Drool*
Step 7: Insert Your Dominance
Jaune: What are you doing standing on my bed? Get down from there.
Ruby: Feel my dominance! *Proceed to T Pose*
Step 8: Always have small and constant physical contacts.
Jaune:*managed to beat Cardin*
Ruby: Nice work Jaune! *Slap his ass with a nice and firm squeeze*
Jaune: Eeeep!
Step 9: To enforce your desire for him, always remember to imagine a life with him
Ruby:*panting and moaning in bed and under the covers* Jaune! Ahh! Harder! Deeper!
Weiss, Blake and Yang covered their ears as they curse, secretly listening and cried themselves to sleep.
Step 10: If all hope is lost, Just confess
Ruby: Jaune. I like you. Would you be my boyfriend?
Jaune: Sure Ruby. I like you too. Want to see a movie tonight?
Ruby: Sure. I would love too.
Jaune: It's a date. *Kiss her lightly on the lips*
Ruby:*blushed hard*
There you have it. Follow these simple steps and the oblivious charming knight will be yours.
P/s: This steps will also works on an oblivious male ninja, oblivious female ninja, oblivious female brawler, oblivious female heiress, oblivious female babrbarian and other individual that start with an oblivious adjective.
Jaune: *read the steps written on the paper* I wonder if this will work on a certain oblivious female reaper.
Whitley will land it near the crater long enough to get the Mantle refugees on board, and so we can have a tower defense episode.
Winter and the defection squad will defend it from the air until they crashland in Willow’s depression-garden.
Ironwood will be one of the only people on Atlas when Salem gets there.
Theory.
The Schnee Family mansion could become a sanctuary for the people of Atlas fleeing Salem
Look at the size of it. Look at the towers in the foreground and back ground. Assuming the Schnee's like to keep their mansion architecture symmetrical, the Mansion is as possibley wide as it is long. If not a huge square block.
I don't doubt for a second that the Schnee Mansion has its own security system that can run on generators in case of a power outage. It may even have its own hard light shield. Something to be expected of a company that not only produces hard light dust but the technology to use it.
And my other theory is it won't be Weiss who instigated it, but...
Whilst watching that broadcast, there was a facial expression here, (I can't remember the exact word off top of my head but I remember at the time thing. 🤔 Wtf, is that?. I think it was something about helping)
I'm also thinking about the huge point that had been made that whitley was left behind by his sisters, the staff aren't there, he's practically by himself. (I'm of the belief willow is sobering up and trying to practice her weapon/summoning)
Whitley is very lonely. He's also seeing that the army cannot do what huntsmen can. He has the resources at his disposal.
I can see him being the one to try to gets his sister's attention and telling her.
"We can use the mansion as a safe haven. Open the doors.
And Willow coming down and agreeing.
Whitley can finally feel like he's worth something other than a pawn of his father.
Not as a huntsmen. But in the spirit of one, helping those who need it.
There’s a more polished fork of Opentoonz called Tahoma that’s been getting attention recently, I heard it was more stable and easier to ‘start with’.
Studio Ghibli’s animation software will be made available via open source this month.
That’s right…💯% free.

Blake: I AM THE NIGHT!
Jaune: And I’m the... knight?
Blake: *Watching from the closet* Damn that's a good line...
Yang: fuck me gently
Jaune: no. I will give you what you deserve
I mean, presumably Tai signed off on Ruby going early, Karen Glass or whatever her fanon name is would never give Cinder legal permission do do anything.
It’s one of those things we’ve never really heard about, and no one ever seems to ask, but this might actually tell us that the Age of Majority is 17 on Remnant.
Emancipation probably would go about as well as calling the cops would, Karen is rich enough to block any attempts, and vindictive enough for Cinder to not risk it.
The chain of events Rhodes was likely going for here would be:
Train Cinder until she’s a legal adult.
Hope that she’s capable by the time she leaves the hotel, since Karen sure-as-hell wouldn’t let her leave with any money, and also:
Have Cinder do what most people assume Ren and Nora did, take some qualification exam since she doesn’t have a combat school record.
Enroll Cinder in Atlas
???
Cinder happy!?
I feel like I should note that I don’t defend this plan, and all the waiting around involved in it, this is just what I think Rhodes plan was.
cinder was told she had to wait till she was 17 to take the huntsman exams but ruby got in early
Oh yeah that was a thing, wasn’t it? Well sadly, Cinder wasn’t a prodigy and I doubt Rhodes would have the balls to argue to Ironwood for her.
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:
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.
