Here's a fun prompt: Say Blake had an arranged marriage waiting for her in Menagerie. Some ponce elitist. Blake ran away for the White Fang and Adam, but now she's in the public eye and said ponce sets out to "rescue" her.



He could be a full on hatesink character like Hex Skvader (or be Hex himself), a jerk idiot like Kuno from Ranma 1/2, or just kind of a misguided dope. Either way a lot of chaos ensues-Especially if he starts challenging Jaune and Sun to duels for Blake.

I like him being even more of a golden retriever than Jaune. It would clash with Blake's personality so hard. Especially if he was a dog Faunus

He would be of the school of childhood promises: He made a promise to always protect Blake and he's trying to fulfill it like a typical shonen manga hero... But he's hopelessly inept at it.

Unlike Jaune who just needed training to bring out his massive potential, this guy is just a complete disaster.

Nope. Only team RWBY, the characters involved in their trailers, and Cinder I guess.

Ozpin, Glynda and Ironwood are inspired by the Wizard of Oz. You could argue it's a fairy tale, but still. Team JNPR are genderbent historical/mythological figures who in their stories crossdressed (Joan or Arc, Achilles, Thor, Mulan). Roman was inspired by Clockwork Orange and Neopolitan by the ice cream she's named after.

Now I might be wrong, but this is just what I remember.
 
RWBY: Fairy Tales (Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White, Beauty and the Beast, Goldilocks)

JNPR: Historical/Mythical figures that all cross-dressed.

Cardin: Named for the Cardinal Winchester, the one who tried Joan of Arc and condemned her as a heretic, hence the slash Jaune/Cardin pairing being named 'Heresy'

Ozluminati: Wizard of Oz

Cinder: Cinderella

Oobleck: Dr. Seuss' "The Oobleck and Bartholomew"

Port: Boy who cried Wolf, IIRC.

Sienna Khan: Shere Khan (Jungle Book)

Salem: I'm thinking the Salem Witch Trials

Sun: The Great Wukong, Chinese Legend

Neptune: Take a WILD guess…

Velvet: Velveteen Bunny

Coco: Coco Chanel, wasn't a fashion name during 1930-40's Germany.

Watts: Arthur Conan Doyle/Dr. John Watson from Sherlock Holmes

I can't remember the rest, but there's a good bit of them.

An older crack idea I had: Sun is convinced Jaune and Blake are together. Jaune insists they aren't but they just keep being seen together, ending up in a pile of limbs, Blake keeps showing up wearing Jaune's hoodie... It's all perfectly innocent but Sun thinks Jaune is moving in on his girl!

Is Blake simply trolling them both so she's at the center of a love triangle? Is she aware of how dangerous a game she's playing when Pyrrha's jealousy begins to rear its ugly head? Is she insane for trying to get Yang and Jaune to have their own torrid affair?

Blake: *nosebleed* "Yes, yes, and then I'll be tied up in the corner and forced to watch a superior human woman steal away my husband..." *drools and continues scribbling* "Oooh, and then he'll make me beg for a turn in our own wedding bed, while my suitors realize they'll never match up to human virility..."

Ruby: *eyes narrowed* "My Filth-o-meter is short-circuiting again. Blake must be thinking about something lewd."
 
... alternative semblance idea for Blake.

Her Semblance lets her change what kind of cat she is. Which changes her coloration and mindset.

She stays a black cat because it's what she was born as and being constantly horny on main is the least problematic version of Blake.


She's banned from changing into a Orange cat inside menagerie.

Nightmare: . . . Oh, really? Then without thinking about it, tell me the name of the most attractive person in Beacon.

Weiss: Pyrrha. No, I mean Blake- Wait! I mean Yang . . . Crap.

Nightmare: . . . Couldn't even pretend to say Jaune, huh?

Weiss: . . . I mean . . . He's cute, he's just not my type . . .

Nightmare: . . . So, a little Bi, perhaps?

Weiss: . . . *Whine*

Nightmare: . . . Face it, "Me." From the Legendary Invincible Girl down to your puppy dog partner, you're attracted to just about every girl in Beacon.

Weiss: . . . They all have no business being so pretty!


u/JMHSrowing • 3y ago

Nightmare: "Oh but don't they? In the prime of life and extremely fit, it only makes sense. Especially since they are beautiful on the inside too."

Weiss: "Yeah. . . When you put it like- Hey wait! What are you trying to get at!?"

Nightmare: "Does everything I say have to be some kind of ploy?"

Weiss: "Yes."

Nightmare: "Eh, I feel called out, but you're right. Admitting how it's only understandable to be attracted to them is your first step."

Weiss: "Nnnnnoooo-. . . . Okay actually now hold on. I'm even more confused."

Nightmare: "Oh do tell."

Weiss: "Wouldn't. . . Me accepting myself and being open about myself be the opposite of a nightmare?"

Nightmare: "Such a smart little snowflake. . . Yes, it would be. . . If once you get a girlfriend you could decide if you wanted to step on them or be stepped on."

Weiss: ". . . You really are a monster."

u/Mongoose42 • 3y ago

Nightmare: "I'm not a monster, I'm just you but gayer."

Weiss: "…Who have you been gay with?"

Nightmare: "Excuse yourself?"

Weiss: "You say you're me, but gayer, which means if you've taken that next step in being gay, you must've been gay with someone. So who?"

Nightmare: "Well first there was Ruby, then Pyrrha, then Blake, then—"

Weiss: "Yeah, but… in here. Right?"

Nightmare: "…"

Weiss: "Which means… none of it actually ever happened. None of it can happen for you…"

Nightmare: "…Don't you dare say it."

Weiss: "…You're the useless lesbian. At least I can go out into the real world and get a date, but you? You're stuck in this fake world. With your fake girlfriends."

Nightmare: "THEY'RE REAL TO ME!"

Weiss: "Yeah, whatever. I'm out of here. See you later, virgin."

Nightmare: "So are you!"

Weiss: "Not for long."

Of just Team RWBY?

Ruby: Unsure, possibly happy.

Blake: Nonplussed, though accepting later on.
Yang: Unimpressed, but not upset at the idea. Especially as he shows more of himself.

Pyrrha would be ecstatic, Nora would be upset, Cinder would be unimpressed, Neo would be wondering how she got into that mess. Emerald would be unimpressed.

Winter might be curious, but maybe accepting. Glynda would be shocked.

I'm assuming this is a theoretical arranged marriage scenario?

Then I'd imagine that the reaction of anyone with modern sensibilities finding out that their parent/s went behind their back to engage them to someone they don't know for money would be nothing short of APOCALYPTIC.

At the absolute least, Ruby and especially Yang would probably never speak to Taiyang again (unless it was Summer who arranged it and Tai was just as much in the dark), Weiss and Jacques were already on the outs so this would probably just speed up the inevitability of Jacques committing suicide via gunshot to the back of the head, and Blake would...probably be okay with it as long as the guy was rich and handsome because she's shameless like that.

Considering her age, Glynda would probably already know about such an arrangement unless she made it inebriated and forgot or it was a dare she lost that she didn't realize would be taken seriously. She'd be pissed at Isabel for sure for letting it go through.

Cinder's case could be uniquely bad or good. If the arrangement was with her birth parents then that might give her closure/closeness to people who knew them enough to arrange a marriage. If it was her adoptive family that abused her then she'd be mad that they were still controlling her despite now being long dead.

Somewhat the same condition for Emerald, seeing as she was a street urchin/orphan for some time. Somebody who knew her parent/s might make her happy or upset, especially if they didn't or wouldn't take her in after she was orphaned.
 
Training: Aura Sensing New
  • Threadmarks
    • Team RWBY was up early, and looked very unhappy as they staggered, like zombies, towards the training center.

    Ruby: "Come on guys! We've barely done any group training all month!"

    Blake: "I've been busy with White Fang!"

    Yang: "Yeah, and I've had my own things going on."

    Weiss: "We need to keep our grades up in this, Yang, Blake! Honestly, can't you take this seriously?"

    Yang: "Says the girl who threatened to murder Ruby for waking her up with an airhorn."

    Ruby: "Um, sorry?"

    Weiss: dark look.

    The four pass by a small courtyard garden... And pause. They see Jaune in the center of the courtyard, blindfolded, with earphones on. He was doing a handstand, and fidgeting only a little. He's also shirtless.

    Weiss: "... What is that fool doing that for at this hour?"

    Yang: "Giving a free show? Gotta say, it's a little avant garde but I like his hustle." ogles his muscles

    Ruby: "Ew! Yang, gross!" bright red nevertheless

    Blake: "I think it's some form of meditation or sensory training."

    Blake approaches, enters the circle... Jaune mutters under his breath.

    Weiss: "What's he babbling about?"

    Blake: "... Books... Fish... Moonlight... Shadow...?"

    Ren: "He's learning how to sense Auras."

    Yang, Weiss, and Ruby jump. Blake merely raises an eyebrow as Ren steps out from behind a marble column.

    Yang: "Geez! We need to put a bell on you, Zen Boy!"

    Blake: scowls

    Yang: "What?"

    Weiss: "Aura Sensing? Isn't that a bit advanced for a dolt like him?"

    Ren: "It is not easy for people to learn. But I've put him through a crash course and he's been doing fairly well. Helps with blind fighting, keeping track of your comrades in darkness, and in telling who is behind a door. After all, if Aura is the energy of the soul, parts of your soul will always radiate outwards if you don't learn how to control it."

    Blake: "I see. That's how you always know I'm around."

    Ren: "Among other reasons."

    Ruby: "Wow... You're like a super ninja, Ren!"

    Weiss: "Please! For all we know, he's just playing a prank on us and Arc!"

    Ren: pulls out his scroll, turns it on "I've linked to the headset Jaune is wearing. Ruby, can you confirm it was not linked before?"

    Ruby checks it over and nods.

    Ruby: "Yeah, it just turned on."

    Ren: "Jaune. You were muttering about what you were sensing before."

    Jaune: "Oh! Sorry Ren!"

    Ren: "No, no... I want you to say aloud what you are sensing." Hits mute "Blake, please approach Jaune again."

    Blake walks back into the courtyard. Jaune grimaces.

    Jaune: "Um... Aura in front of me... It feels like... Books... Moonlight... Shadow... Cats for some reason?"

    Blake, Ruby, Yang and Weiss all gape in disbelief. Ren smiles softly.

    Ren: "Good. Hang on." Mutes it again "Yang? If you would approach him? Any angle you wish."

    Yang: "All right..." She walks around the small courtyard and then walks in behind Jaune, then moves to the right at random.

    Ren: "Jaune?"

    Jaune: "Warmth... Fun... Fire... Fury... Motorcycles for some reason... And... Motherliness?"

    Yang gapes and flushes. Weiss scoffs.

    Weiss: "This is ridiculous..." She leaps up and stands on a pillar above Jaune, and leaps to a bench on the other side. "There. Too fast for him to pick up-"

    Jaune: "Cold... White... Speed, grace... Hidden warmth...? Maybe? It was quick so I couldn't get a lot."

    Weiss flushes. Ruby grins and super speeds in front of Jaune, then away.

    Jaune: "I felt joy... Mischief... Silver too... And I smell rose petals... Not hard to guess who that was."

    Ruby: "WOW!"

    Jaune pulls off his blindfold and gets to his feet. He smiles in a friendly way at RWBY.

    Jaune: "Hey! How'd I do, Ren?"

    Ren: "Better, though your range is still limited. And you can only sense when you are calm and not moving."

    Jaune: face falls "Oh..."

    Ren: "But it is impressive you're getting the basics down so quickly."

    Yang: "And looking good while doing it, Studly." Grins "Mind if I train with you? I'll even go shirtless too if you want~."

    Jaune: bright red "Y-Yang!"

    Weiss: "YANG! Must you be so-so you?!"

    Yang: "I must! It's a heavy burden but someone's gotta heft all this awesome hotness around!"

    Weiss: "You would say that, you top heavy bimbo!"

    Blake: "I would also be interested in training, Ren. My mother tried to teach me Aura sensing but I never got past the basics."

    Ren: nods "I would be glad to."

    Ruby: "ME TOO! Oh, it sounds so cool!"

    Yang: "And all the shirtless Jaune we could want!"

    Ruby: "YAAAANGGGG!"

    - - -

    The teams sharing some training techniques and concepts could be fun. Also, Ren learning how to become a teacher might be a very interesting character direction for him. Especially since I headcanon him learning his arts from a monastery that took them in. Nora meanwhile learned how to fight from the Norse-like berserker/blacksmith in the village near the monastery.

    • The Aura sensing power seems cool, though if you have to fight someone with something like a Stand then things are going to be really confusing for you, sensing someone at multiple locations at the same time.

    What I really like is that Yang seemed to only have made her first thirsty/horny comment about Jaune sincerely, while everything after that seems more like she's trolling Ruby and Weiss. 😁
    Sure, what Yang says might be totally honest, but the reason she's saying those things out loud is to mess with her teammates.
     
    I came up with a basic backstory for Ren and Nora and I would like help expanding on it.

    I was thinking he and Nora ended up at a village with a Pathist (basically Buddhist) monastery. The monastery provided food and some education for both, but due to how their order's rules, only Ren could be trained by them in their arts. So Ren got the Shaolin Monk training, but with Aura to power it all.

    The monastery was not unkind though. There was a retired Huntsman in the village, of the same culture Nora was from: A one-eyed demolitions expert. The monks convinced him to take Nora in and raise her. He was a grizzled old demolitions fighter with a foul mouth, a grenade launcher, and a sword. Nora is still very fond of One Eye and writes him often, as he trained her in his fighting arts.
     
    Wednesdays Huh? New
  • Threadmarks
    • Today was not team RWBYs day.

    The school was out of hot water (Nora thought she could make the showers warmer faster using fire dust) , they had a double period with Port, and all the good stuff got taken at lunch before they got there so they got stuck with the brussel sprout soup and sardine and pineapple sandwiches (ports favorites that he insisted be part of the menu).

    So to try to blow off a little steam the girls decided to take a trip down to the emerald Forrest and spend a bit of time mauling the Grimm.

    Unfortunately someone else was already here.

    He was BIG easily the tallest man they had ever seen and his frame was packed with muscle. He had a bald head and dark skin, and for some reason was standing on his tiptoes.

    Though that was nowhere near the oddest thing about him.

    "Stop your squirming boy you ain't getting out of this!"

    They watched this grown man in a butter yellow speedo pin a Grimm down.

    "What the hell is he doing?!"

    He apparently heard Weiss yelling because his head snapped to the young Huntresses.

    "I'm getting revenge snowcone!"

    He snaps the Grimms neck and pops back up onto his tiptoes.

    "For hundreds of years the Grimm have fucked humanity. Well Magnus Manus is here to fuck the Grimm!"

    The girls were visibly disturbed by this obviously crazy man.

    "You're definitely gonna catch something wild."

    "Nah baby the light of my soul will protect me from the filth of a Grimm hole."

    Yang was seriously considering shooting this guy. The detention would definitely be worth it.

    "Well it's been fun hun but I got a run!"

    And without another word he squatted down and clenched his butt cheeks before rocketing forward past the tree line.


    "....man fuck Wednesday."

    "Yeah."

    Well this question made me remember an old idea I had. Weiss is complaining about Jaune not taking a hint that she is not interested when there is a knock on the door. It's Jaune asking to talk to Weiss. Despite her protest Ruby opens the door. But rather than some pick up line or flowers he is holding a stack of paperwork.
    Jaune explains that the paperwork is the forms necessary to dissolve their engagement. Que explanation that they had been engaged since they were young by Jaune's grandmother and Weiss's grandfather. Jaune had been resentful of it but promised his Nana to "at least give the young lady a chance." So he did try to woo her, but even Jaune can only bang his head against a brick wall for so long.
    Weiss is in a state of shock as she thought that Jaune had been after her for her money. With the idea that they were engaged is causing her to reevaluate all of her interactions with Jaune.
    While she is freaking out Yang asks Jaune what he is going to do now that he is back on the market. He says he doesn't know but asks if she is free anytime this week. She says she is free now if he's got the guts. He says try me, and they leave to go into town.
    When they leave, door still open, Weiss exe finishes rebooting and she calls home to ask about it. She finds out that the engagement is legit, and Jacque has been looking for ways out of it so he could marry her off to someone old enough to be her father. Weiss quickly shouts that she hasn't signed it yet and the engagement is still on and hangs up. Ruby and Blake gives her the side eye. Blake asks her when she is planning on telling Jaune she is not dissolving the engagement. Ruby wants to know how she is planning to tell Yang she is still engaged to her new boyfriend. At that moment Pyrrha walks by and asks what they mean about Jaune being engaged to Weiss while dating Yang.
