Anyway... We've explored Adam and Jaune as rivals/friends. Let's explore Mercury and Jaune as friends/rivals.
Jaune: "I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you never skip leg day."
Mercury: "..I'm gonna shove my foot up your ass."
Jaune: "Not exactly disproving my point."
Like, if Jaune is akin...
Pyrrha has a marriage meeting...

Pyrrha Nikos sat perfectly straight in the plush leather seat of her mother's private airship, hands folded in her lap, smile polite and practiced. The expression had served her well in tournaments, interviews, sponsorship galas—anywhere the world...
Threadmarks: Jaune Arc, Single Father 48 (Father's Day Special)
The Beacon Cafeteria courtyard was unusually busy that afternoon, thanks to one very determined four-year-old.
Mia sat behind a rickety old wooden table she'd convinced the teachers to let her use. A slightly crooked cardboard sign reading "LEMONAD" in bright crayon letters was taped to the...
Pretty fun! Another path? His Nana trains him.
Into a Paladin Saber.
Here, Jaune is trained by his great-grandmother Arturia in sword combat. And she knows a thing or two about how to do it:

Another path for Jaune's training is based on a character I once rolled up in DnD: A Shotgun Knight.
Shotgun Knight: Heavily reinforced armor. His Aura training is focused on endurance and defense, and supercharging his Dust ammo. He still retains Crocea Mors but uses the shield more often than...
A few fun ideas to explore:
-Jaune has to talk Henry Marigold out of sneaking into Beacon Academy to try and impress Weiss. It doesn't go well.
-Blake had to become a cat burglar (HA) in order to support herself before Beacon. She developed a near split personality over her guilt issues-The...
The Super Skybox was pretty epic, Jaune would admit. And he didn't use that word lightly. There was a chocolate fountain and high end booze! Jaune's sisters and the Siths headed right for the buffet.
At the center of it all, looking very stiff, was Jacques Schnee, talking with General Ironwood...
The JNPR common room was lively that evening. Team RWBY had wandered over after training, turning the space into a casual hangout. Jaune was trying (and failing) to read a textbook while Pyrrha quizzed him. Nora and Ruby were playing cards. Blake read in the corner. Yang lounged on the couch...
The first few matches went pretty much like that-The weak teams were eliminated in short order. As a result, JNPR had enough time to go up to the skyboxes of the Vytal Arena to visit family.
Aqua: "JAAAAUUNNNNE!" Aqua hugged him, blubbering away "THERE'S SOOO MUCH FREE BOOOOOZE!"
Isabel grabs...
The opening ceremonies were very nice. Fighter jets and Bullheads streaked overhead, there were fireworks and musical peangrformances, and a lot of other fun things. Things Jaune wasn't able to enjoy as thoroughly as he would like. But try he did.
Yang: "Mmmm... Jaune? I'm in your lap and...
Jaune was relaxing after training with his dad. He sat on a stone bench at the edge of the training field, drinking deeply from his water bottle. Nick was nearby, fighting off Nora, Pyrrha and Ren.
Nora: "EXPLOSION TIIIIME!"
Nick: "IT'S SWORD'O'CLOCK!"
Ren: "Time for Justice!"
Pyrrha: "Um...
