I also do this to hurt the young people.Nick: "HAHAHA! I'm hip! I'm up on modern slang, son! I'm not cringe!"
Time for a hackney harem plot idea!
Pyrrha gets the bright idea to practice her confession and flirting before going after Jaune.
So she practices on her friends. And accidentally turns them all into useless lesbian disasters without realizing it.
Weiss...is Weiss.just talking to Weiss makes her that, so i imagine Blake and Weiss both are asked to give feed back to Pyrrha flirty
Yang striking the sun praiser pose and just absolutely nuking a battlefield.Yang has no idea what the heck happened, but one day in the middle of class her eyes started glowing and she exploded. Now she finds she can throw out elemental bolts without the need for dust. Ozpin and Glynda are panicking because hey, new maiden awakening in front of everyone, and Yang is going around showing off her new powers to everyone in Beacon because she doesn't realize how big of a deal it is. Cinder has to come up with some new plans on the fly, because there's no way the same type of ambush that worked on Amber will work on Yang, and the blonde will be a major force multiplier that will greatly affect Cinder's plans to sow chaos.
Doctor Knowall retired to his office in the Beacon Infirmary after classes were done for the day. It was clean and cutting edge, like the rest of the building. None of the medical scanners had been cobbled together out of anything he could salvage. None of the beds were cots made out of wood duct-taped together with cut apart bedsheets. There was no snarling of Grimm, no pounding of guns or missiles.
It was calm, pristine even.
It all made Jaune feel... Twitchy. Jumpy.
"Hey Doc?"
He took a deep breath. He turned on his chair to face the open door out into the infirmary. He went through every meditative technique he knew.
For standing there with a bright, cocky smile on her face was Yang Xiao-Long.
"Miss Xiao-Long," Jaune said, "What can I do for you?"
Yang smirked a bit, mischief in her violet eyes. It was so familiar it was utterly painful.
"Well, I wanted to get a check up," she said, rolling her shoulders, "My last combat class was pretty rough, and I'm a little sore."
Knowall's keen eyes and Aura senses identified that there was literally nothing wrong with her. He should tell her to run off, stop wasting his damn time. She used to flirt like this with him all the time, in... In the future.
He should just...
"Sit down," he sighed. Yang grinned and sat down on one of the beds, perched like a glamour model. Knowall nodded and scooted over on his chair's roller wheels. He rested a hand on her shoulder, and flared his Aura. Yang sucked in a deep breath as he poked a few muscles and studied her Aura reactions.
"You'll be fine, minor overextension of your ligaments," Knowall stated, standing up and walking over to pick up his Scroll. He tapped out a few notes and added it to her digital chart. He turned back and shook his head.
"You need to diversify your attacks," Knowall stated, "Kicks can be very useful, too. As well as blocking."
Yang pouted a bit at him.
"You sound like my dad," she huffed. She complained about that all the time in the future, too. Whenever he warned her. Whenever he tried to get her to be safer.
"Listen to him," Knowall stated, once again looking over the infirmary and finding it spotless. He hated it.
"You'll avoid a lot of pain if you do," he stated, glaring at her. Yang scowled in confusion. It was just like her... So bright, so defiant...
"What's your problem?" She demanded bluntly. "I just wanted to get some attention. Maybe..." She smirked. "Brighten up your day-?"
Knowall slammed a fist into the wall, leaving a crater. He took slow, deep breaths. He slowly turned to look back at the shocked Yang.
"... Sorry," he murmured, standing up straight. "I'll have to ask Miss Goodwitch to fix that."
"... I..." She shook her head slowly. "I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to... To touch a nerve."
Knowall slowly nodded. Silence fell in the infirmary for a bit. A silence Yang predictably broke.
"Who... Who was she?"
Knowall started and looked back at her. Yang shrugged with a small, apologetic smile.
"Someone... Someone had to have made you this angry. Fifty-fifty, right?" She asked. "Did..." She sucked in a breath. "Did she... Run out on you? Abandon you?"
She looked down at her hands, resting in her lap.
"... Break your heart?"
Knowall sighed. He took off his glasses and wiped them off.
"No," he said, "She... She was murdered."
Yang looked up in shock. Knowall stared past her. He just... He couldn't look directly at her. To see her here, intact, whole, alive... While his memories showed everything...
"Our wedding day," he mumbled, "White Fang broke in. She was... She was friends with someone the leader was obsessed with. He wanted to punish her. Kill all her human friends..."
He closed his eyes. Yep... It was still there. She fought for her life. She killed so many of the White Fang members. He had screamed himself hoarse, tried to pull free. To help her. His captors were too strong for brute force alone.
Even then, he just couldn't bring himself to use his arts to hurt people.
Then Adam descended like a demon out of myth... And stabbed her through the heart. He saw the life go out of Yang's eyes.
And after that... There was only rage. And pain.
"... When they killed her," he mumbled, "I... I broke my oath. I finally... Had enough. I used everything..." He stared at his open palm. Funny, he expected it to be covered in blood.
"Everything I knew... To kill them all."
He shut his eyes again. All the members of the White Fang were dying in horrible agony. Adam? He had saved the worst for him. Every minute of his death had been an exercise in pain and cruelty. Even when the mighty White Fang leader, humbled and broken, had begged for mercy... Knowall hadn't responded.
He'd watched him with unblinking eyes as he perished, his very body eating itself to death.
In the end...
"... It brought me nothing but more pain," he whispered. "Not even absolution. I... I haven't felt peace since that day. Just... Nothing."
He felt her rise. Felt her wrap her arms around him. He opened his eyes and looked down at her. Yang was doing her best to keep the tears out of her eyes, but... The sheer compassion in her gaze was heartbreakingly familiar.
"Sorry," she whispered.
Knowall very slowly nodded.
"Thank you."
He cleared his throat. He got himself under control... And pushed her away to a respectful distance, pulling his hand back just as carefully.
"Thank you," he repeated, "I'm very sorry I got so... Unprofessional."
"I, no, I-I get it," Yang admitted quietly. She smiled softly. "I know how you have to be strong... Even when-"
"You're crying on the inside," Knowall finished. Yang stared at him in mild shock, but nodded.
"Yeah..."
Knowall again cleared his throat.
"You should get back to your team," he said. She turned to go, slowly. He watched her walk out.
He sighed and rubbed his face.
Goddamnit...
When Yang Xiao-Long was involved? He was always weak. Too damn weak.
He shakily looked down. He opened the locket. A small hologram emerged, blue and translucent. An older Velvet Scarlatina sat on a couch, smiling with eyes full of love and warmth. Around her were three human/rabbit Faunus hybrids: Two girls and a boy, all smiling broadly for the camera.
centuries, if not millennia of slavery, in all likelihood there aren't any "pure" Faunus left.
Makes me wonder who was the remnant equivalent of Thomas Jefferson.
My only nitpick about an otherwise great chapter is that Qrow mentions by implication during the WOR lore shorts that there is no such thing as a hybrid between Human/Faunus couples. The offspring from such pairings are almost always Faunus, I think.
Some Faunus supremacists in the White Fang would likely try to make claims about having "pure" ancestry, and have derogatory terms for Faunus with human parents or family members. Although, ironically, after what was probably centuries, if not millennia of slavery, in all likelihood there aren't any "pure" Faunus left.
I remember a furry webcomic (not porn, just furry) that handled mixed species/races in a kinda interesting way.Yes but if that was the case, mankind would have gone extinct long ago to sexy catgirls. It would also make the Anti-Faunus racists right. So I think them being able to interbreed is more interesting.

Jaune: "I'm sorry, but Kuudere Catgirl Kunoichi beats Rich Tsundere Ojousama."
Ruby: "But Weiss has a Tragic Backstory!"
Ren: "Technically, Blake is royalty. Her father's the Chieftain of Menagerie."
Jaune: "So Princess cancels out Rich and they both have Tragic Backstories!"
Nora: REDACTED
Ren: Unfortunately beaten out by shortstackier peppy tomboy with manic energy.Yang: We all have Tragic Backstories Ruby
Ruby: Ok but what about a Short-Stack Peppy Goth Girl that is with the Rich Tsundere Ojousama?
Ren: Unfortunately beaten out by shortstackier peppy tomboy with manic energy.
Ruby: no fair I call bias!
Ren: one of her favorite morning warm ups is jumping rope.
Ruby:.... objection removed.
This one sounds sweetWhitley uses Ruby as an excuse to get out of a corporate New Year's Eve party. She takes him around Vale and they bond... And when the ball drops? Well...
This sounds like an awesome semblance idea.Jaune can command Grimm and turn them into armor and weapons for himself and his team, the items even keeping special attributes from the Grimm. He also has the highest defensive ability of them all on top of high speed regeneration.
And so, my last prompts for 2024:
-Jaune and Yang end up together for the Vale New Years' party, as the rest of their teams are off with other people or doing other things. They hit the bars, bond... And when the ball drops? They kiss. What happens after?
-Pyrrha asks Jaune to accompany her to some soiree for New Year's that she has to attend. Jaune accepts, thinking he's going as her friend. And technically he is... But Pyrrha is hoping she can get up the courage to confess her feelings.
-Nora wants a perfect New Year's kiss from Ren. Shenanigans ensue as she tries to plan it all out.
-The teams are in Radian for the New Year's Festivities! How chaotic do things get?
