Maybe a Remnantian version of Freddy Kruger.

Instead of being burned alive, he is chased outside a village and is assaulted by a Geist. But instead of dying after being attacked he awakens a semblance that merges him with the Grimm, gaining its powers.

Now there's a homicidal, intelligent golem that can shape itself into anything, and it's picking people off, one by one.

Guys, I have a particular question about my writing, specifically about Jaune.

I connect with Jaune because back then, just like him, I was a hesitant teenager with insecurities, a working brain, and fuck ton of anxiety.

So the premise is this, someone asks Jaune that why is he so against pursuing relationship with multiple women, and then he mentions something like,

"If I accept this proposal, then i will make sure that they are treated as my equals and not my subordinates, but then what happens that they find someone that feels just as right for them as I felt, what if they too feel love for multiple people, nobody is truly special, even I am not going to be special forever, there will be people just like me, so what then? The equality of out relationship will demand that I am completely fine with them dating another man, while I know I am not comfortable, so why should I ask them to allow me to date another woman?"

And this isn't just me asking for fantasy esque answer that "No the girls will always love him and no one else, he will always be the perfect lover and will never fail(which goes against Jaune's character to be a an inspirational failure), yada yada"

I thought it would be out of character response from Jaune, but considering his need to be loyal, his insecurities, his ability to think things through and realize what the consequences could be, I cannot possibly say that it is out of character for him to be avoidant of a harem.

How would you answer it and tackle this issue?

Ruby with longer Hair

Spoiler: Hair Growth

Would be a funny thing to be hit by mundane semblances like hair growth, also would healing dust or Jaune semblance cause accelerated hair groth?

Actually, I can 100% see Jaune use your reasoning. With the result of his parents having him and his 7 sisters, canon Jaune would surely subconsciously learn from his parents on how love would be like. Canon Jaune would only want one person and would reject a harem.

Of course, to each person their preferences on how to write a fan fiction of an established character, but if I were to write one (which I don't, due to no skill and time, unfortunately), I'd anchor a character to their canon self based on when in the canon timeline the character is in to be more believable. Like for Vol 1-3 Jaune, I'd say he would try to pursue one person and would try to softly reject another's advancement towards him if it were to happen. For Vol 4 Jaune until before Ever After, I see that pursuing someone would be far in the back of his head. Would still be possible if someone wants to write about it. For post-Ever After Jaune, I don't see him pursuing anyone for a relationship.

Salem: And you....... Scion of Arcs, what a shame, a great bloodline, and the only living male heir is a fraud.

Jaune: Wow, that really hurt me, I mean I am in a lot of pain.

Salem (irritated): Are you trying to act smart with me boy .

Jaune: With the way you plan, I am surprised you even know what sarcasm is.

Salem (gritting teeth): I could end you! Break you like twig! Flay your skin! feed you to your kin as I rip them apart bit by bit!

Jaune: So you, a nigh unkillable, queen of Grimm, need to personally make sure, one slightly buff teenager is dead.

Poor Queens and their Poor deeds indeed.

Salem: Why! Why! Why do you not yield like the rest of your paltry excuse of comrades!

Jaune: Bitch my farts make better insults than you.

You think you're the only multi century old immortal who is plagued by nightmares? I became an immortal with the duty to be the guardian of a fairytale world at 19, all with the guilt of causing death to those closest to me, teenage insecurities, and being a fraud for the longest time . You can't even imagine how much effort it would take to unfuck my brain.

Rest of the Team RWBY and JNPR look at him in shock.

Jaune:........ oh wow, yeah, I killed her didn't I? Guess that's something else I still haven't worked through yet. But I can still play songs on my own, I have the best drum kit right in front of me which also acts as outlet for misguided anger!

The free period stretched lazy and golden across Beacon's campus, sunlight spilling through the common-room windows in warm pools. Yang had volunteered to babysit while Jaune was in an extended sparring session with Pyrrha—something about "perfecting shield transitions" that had already run thirty minutes overtime. Mia didn't mind. Auntie Yang had the best stories, the best tickle attacks, and—most importantly—the best lap for curling up on while watching silly cartoons on her scroll.

They were sprawled on the couch now, Mia tucked against Yang's side, legs dangling off the cushion, stuffed bunny held tight. The cartoon played on mute; neither of them was really watching anymore.

Mia tilted her head up, ears twitching thoughtfully.

"Auntie Yang?"

"Hmm?" Yang glanced down, fingers still absently braiding a small section of Mia's blonde curls.

Mia's big blue eyes were very serious. "Will you give me a baby brother or sister?"

The question landed like a grenade.

Yang blinked. Once. Twice.

She coughed, cheeks going faintly pink under her tan. "Uh… wow. Straight to the point, huh, kiddo?"

Mia nodded solemnly. "You said you'd help Papa make one. At that dinner. Everyone was yelling. It was loud."

Yang winced, remembering the cafeteria chaos. "Yeah… that was… a lot of grown-up yelling."

"So?" Mia pressed, undeterred. "Will you?"

Yang exhaled slowly through her nose, smile turning softer, a little wistful. She shifted so she could look Mia in the eye properly.

"I'd like to, squirt. I really would."

Mia's ears perked hopefully. "Then why not?"

Yang hesitated, thumb brushing absently over the little girl's hand. "Because… I'm not sure I'm ready yet. Not sure I'm ready for all of it."

Mia's brow furrowed. "Why?"

Yang's throat worked. She stared at the muted cartoon for a second-some brightly colored hero punching a cartoon Grimm-monster-before answering.

"When my mom—Summer—died, I was little. Ruby was even littler. Dad shut down for a while. So I… I had to be the grown-up. I cooked, I cleaned, I made sure Ruby got to school, got to bed, got hugs when she was scared. I basically became her mom when I was still a kid myself."

Mia's eyes went wide. She looked down at her bunny, then back up. "Just like me?"

Yang's heart did something painful and warm at the same time. She nodded slowly.

"Just like you, kitten."

Mia's lower lip wobbled. "Are you gonna leave me and Daddy too?"

Yang's arms went around her instantly, pulling her close until Mia's face was tucked against her collarbone.

"Never," she said fiercely, voice rough. "Ever. Not in a million years. Not even if the world ends and Grimm eat the moon. I'm here. You and your dad—you're stuck with me, okay?"

Mia sniffled into Yang's shirt, small arms wrapping as tight as they could. "Okay."

They stayed like that for a long minute, Yang rocking her gently, chin resting on the top of her head.

Mia's voice came out muffled. "Then why can't you be my new mama?"

Yang's jaw worked. She stared at the wall over Mia's shoulder, eyes stinging.

"It's… complicated," she said finally. "Grown-up complicated. Your papa's heart is still really full of your mama. And that's okay. It takes time. And I… I wanna do this right. For you. For him. Not just because it feels good in the moment."

Mia pulled back just enough to look up at her. "But you love us?"

Yang's smile was small and very real. "More than Nora loves pancakes. And that's saying something."

Mia giggled wetly. "Pancakes are the best."

"Exactly."

The door opened.

Jaune stepped in, hair mussed, armor still on, looking equal parts exhausted and apologetic.

"Sorry I'm late," he said, already reaching for Mia. "Pyrrha wanted to run the shield forms one more time. Went long."

Yang stood, handing Mia over with exaggerated care. "You're on thin ice, Vomit Boy. This one was starting to think you'd been eaten by a Nevermore."

Jaune winced. "I know, I know. I owe you."

Yang smirked, then softened. "Hey. You two want to ditch campus for dinner? Your treat? There's that noodle place in Vale Mia likes—the one with the spicy broth and the pork dumplings."

Mia's ears shot straight up. "YES! And ice cream?"

Jaune laughed tiredly. "I'll think about it."

Mia immediately turned the full force of her big blue eyes on Yang. "Auntie Yang, please tell Daddy ice cream!"

Yang laughed. "Listen to your dad, squirt."

Mia giggled and nodded solemnly, already plotting.

Jaune scooped her up, settling her on his hip. "Thanks again, Yang. Really."

She waved him off, but her smile lingered. "Anytime. Let's go feed the tiny dictator, huh?"

As they left, Mia twisted in Jaune's arms to wave at Yang. Then, when she thought Jaune wasn't looking, stuck her tongue out playfully.

Yang winked back, mouthing "Ice cream later."

Jaune pretended not to notice.

But he smiled anyway.
