[RWBY] RWBY Shorts

That is absolutely insane. Jaune's not only the tankiest tank on Remnant, but he can buff the aura and semblances of whatever team he's on and not even really notice the hit to his own reserves. Best support in the game please don't nerf.

Dude's a Paladin.

Need to lay down some up close smiting? Jaune.

Need healing? Jaune.

Need buffing? Jaune.

No wonder they were terrified to give Jaune a ranged weapon, he could have clapped anything eventually.
 
Do you think ot would be mad funny that Adam comes back and somehow Jaune(post V9) as the RK helps him redeem himself, and Adam finds new purpose to protect the future of Faunus and in doing so, he is gifted a rose flower from one of the local Faunus milf(come on, with that face and body, he'll be drowning in pussy) and he completes the Beauty and the Beast story but here the love that transformed the beast wasn't romantic but it was the love for one's own people?

And then they make a team with Adam as a Samurai like figure and Jaune as your resident Knight.

Both disgraced from their role but carved their own path to honour and have grown stronger than ever after fighting their inner demons.

Gods, these two can be such good story brothers(two beings that share similar story beats)

And Blake is busy writing Naruto and Sasuke style smut(you know I had to do it)


Also as someone mentioned on fnki, it could be like a Magic the Gathering infinte damage deck with Jaune Amping Adam so he can take more hits and his ability hits harder and badically return inifinite damage.

Screw FGO or Fire Emblem, Ozpin, Magic the Gathering is where the real stats are.

Jaune Arc Jr runs away from home, not for any grand dream like being a huntsmen or saving the world or stuff like that. He's just sick of sharing a bathroom with six brothers (the four sisters get their own bathroom).

And that's how he ends up at Yum Dragon.

A restaurant in the ass end of nowhere known as patch. Run by a one armed chick with a temper she was at least willing to give him a job and let him sleep in the extra room in the back.

For the most part it's not that bad a deal. If not for the customers.

There's Lake the cyan haired girl that keeps coming on to him (and everything else with a wang under thirty), there's Lotus who keeps adding weapons grade dust and what he's pretty sure is poison to her meals.

There's the red haired faunus twins Cain and Abel who just seem to glare at everyone (would be much more intimidating if they weren't six).

But hands down the most annoying of them all.

"Bow down peasants to the future demon queen!"

Is Thorne Rose. Daughter of a local hero, certified cringy teenager in the middle of her chunni phase.

"And lo I see my future dark knight hard at work."

If she wasn't his bosses niece he'd throw her out the window.

"Hello Thorne. Here for your usual?"

"Yes, bring to me the drink as dark as my soul!"

"One chocolate brownie milkshake with a fudge drizzle coming up."

At least she tips well.

Insert the family sword and shield weapon set also including a not! Smith & Wesson .44 Magum and/or Colt Peacemaker and of course some sort of useful knife/dagger or 2. Or a Swiss army knife
Never know when you'll need a knife or 2 after all.

It's like all of us in r/fnki kept saying: Jaune is that guy whose base stats are all 11/10 except for Luck; that is a 1/10. And unlike Qrow, it's not due to a Semblance; Jaune is just that naturally unlucky.
Unlucky indeed. Born with exceptional talent that could've seen vast tracks of land reclaimed to a family that wanted him to stay home and safe. It's like the saying, something along "There's thousands of Einsteins in history who never had the education or opportunity".

Had he had his skills nurtured, who knows, maybe Pyrrha and he would've been bitter rivals in the arena.

But you know that's all for the cameras, in reality these guys had to be reminded by Jaune's mother that teenage pregnancy isn't good for either of their careers.

Yes, they tried to get pregnant even harder than that but grandma Artoria put a stipulation that either they beat her or wait till they are in their late 20's before any of that
 
Jaune SI BS 43: Radian Summer Vacation 3 New
Papa Shirou's restaurant La Belle was warm, cozy, and served a wide variety of fare. Including burgers, though with a French bent. Jaune held back a 'snerk' at the Royale with Cheese on the menu.

Katy: "Hm? You see something funny, Jaune?"

Jaune: "Ah... Just remembering that time I got food poisoning."

Katy: "Which time? You got sick a lot! Usually when Nana was cooking!"

Nana Arturia: "Hey!"

Jaune's Brain: Holy shit it's actually Saber! I mean she's older and taller and has wrinkles and white hair but HOLY SHIT IT'S ACTUALLY SABER! Huh... Am I that unoriginal or did Monty not put this in because he didn't get a clear transmission? Or was he afraid of getting sued? Or were Kerry and Miles that unoriginal-?

Arturia walks up to Jaune, looking stern in her blue dress and apron... Before she hugs him tightly.

Arturia: "Awwww! My little Jaune! You've gotten so big and tall!"

Jaune's Brain: But... She's my Nana... And I love her.

Jaune: smiles and hugs her back "I'm so glad to see you too, Nana."

Shirou: "Hey! No hugs for me?"

Jaune's Brain: And Shirou! Er... Archer... Who is smiling genuinely. That's weird... It's Shirou though... Or Papa... And I love him too.

Jaune hugs him too.

Jaune: "Papa Shirou!"

Shirou: "Heheheh... You ran out in a hurry last time we saw you."

Jaune: "Ah, well... Y-You know... Beacon was starting soon and all..."

Arturia: sighs "You know... You could have just asked us to train you. Or asked us to get you into Beacon for you. Instead of fraud."

Jaune's Brain: What-HOW DID SHE KNOW?!

Arturia: "Orchid told us."

Jaune's Brain: SHE TATTLED ON ME?!

Jaune: "That's so not cool-!"

Shirou: "Son, come on."

Arturia: shakes her head "She can't stand up to both of us guilting her."

Jaune's Brain: I guess that's true...

Arturia: "But... I totally understand." smiles "I got thrown into the thick of battle after years of hard training, my Aura only recently unlocked, and I had to learn how to fight with it in only a few minutes! And I succeeded! Father was so proud! You were just following family tradition!"

Shirou: "Technically I didn't do that sort of thing, I just got thrown into war with only a little training and my Aura unlocked-"

Arturia: "But it let our true strength shine!"

Shirou: "It was kind of traumatizing."

Arturia: "That built character!"

Jaune's Brain: Oh... I see why he was unsure about talking to them... Though I don't think I would agree after the Rusted Knight.

Arturia: "But you're at Beacon and doing so well! We're so proud!"

Jaune: "Aw, thanks..."

Shirou: "So... You gonna introduce us to your girlfriend?"

Arturia: "Did you hook back up with Katy?"

Jaune: "Ah, no! This is my girlfriend, Yang Xiao-Long!"

Yang: smiles "Hey! It's great to meet you!"

Arturia: "Hmmmm..." Eyes narrow

Yang: Stares back

Arturia: "So... You serious about my great-grandson, huh?"

Yang: "Yes."

Jaune's Brain: Oh God, she can't be rivals with a Granny Xiao-Long here too, can she?!

Arturia: "... You look strong, and you're very pretty!" She hugs Yang "It's great to meet you! Call me Nana!"

Yang: "Well... Thank you, Nana!" smiles and hugs her back

Shirou: "Heheh... Knew you couldn't resist a warrior woman, huh kid? Runs in the family, you know."

Jaune: flush "Ah, well..."

Katy is smiling a bit uncomfortably. Jaune cannot blame her.

Yang, Jaune and Katy get seated. The food is soon delivered, though Nana and Shirou don't linger for too long. They do watch from the kitchen though.

Jaune: "They opened this restaurant when they retired after the Great War. They've run it ever since."

Yang: happily eating "Mmmm... Damn! This is great! You learn how to cook from them?"

Katy: "He did."

Yang: "Heh. I'm gonna get fat when we get married, Stud."

Jaune: "Well, I'll make sure we both get lots of exercise."

Katy: "Ha! I get it!"

Jaune: "I uh, er..."

Yang: flush

Katy: "So... You two are getting exercise, huh?" smug little grin

Jaune: "It's... Part of the job."

Katy: "Sounds great."

Yang: "It is."

The two stare intensely at eachother. Jaune moves things along.

Jaune: "So... What have you been doing, Katy?"

Katy: "I'm going to Atlas to study fashion. To support myself, I'm gonna be a secretary for the SDC."

Jaune: "Oh! That's great, really!" smiles

Katy: "Yup! Here are a few of my designs."

She held them out. Yang looked them over with Jaune. Jaune... Couldn't appreciate much but he thought they looked nice. Yang blinked and nodded in approval.

Yang: "Yeah... It's pretty great work."

Katy: "Thanks! It's pretty traditional. I'm thinking of expanding out into Huntress fashion, but that's more complicated since it has to be fit for combat AND look good. Hey Jaune? Mind if I talk to her in private for a bit? You never were very interested in fashion."

Jaune: "... I guess not." He smiled and nuzzled Yang "What do you think?"

Yang: "We need to get this out of the way anyway."

Katy: "Heh... You're not as dumb as you look."

Yang: "Says another blonde."

Katy: "We're all blondes."

Jaune: "Be nice please? This is Nana and Papa's restaurant and if you start a fight, they will kick your asses."

Katy: "We'll be totally civil!"

Yang: "Absolutely!"

They both smile. Jaune smiles back stiffly. He gets up... And walks to the kitchen.

Shirou: "Ah. They're hashing things out, huh?"

Jaune: "Yeah."

Shirou: "You worried?"

Jaune: "Yeah."

Shirou: "About what?"

Jaune: "Just... I mean... I care about Katy, and I love Yang... And I don't want either of them hurt."

Shirou: "You already hurt Katy though."

Jaune's Brain: Geez, there's that Archer bluntness...

Jaune: "... We broke up amicably..."

Shirou: "But you both had broken hearts. She came in here and cried for a week straight after you ran off."

Jaune's Brain: Urrrrgghhhhhh!

Jaune: "... I thought she'd get over me easy enough..."

Shirou: "That's your problem, son. You think so little of yourself that you don't think about how others feel when you break things off." sighs and shakes his head "She loved you, Jaune. She would have been your wife, your everything."

Jaune: "... But I would have been miserable. And I wouldn't have loved her... Not how she deserved to be."

Shirou: nods "You're right. You'd have both been unhappy. You wouldn't have been true... Katy, for all her claims, wouldn't have been happy as a farm wife. As much as she tried to convince herself."

Jaune: "I can't avoid hurting people in my life, can I?"

Shirou: "No one can. But it's how we deal with that pain that defines who we are." He smiles "And do you regret it? Or Yang?"

Jaune: "... No. I don't."

Shirou: "Then everything turned out all right, huh?"

Jaune: "So far..."

As soon as Jaune went into the kitchen, Katy turned to Yang.

Katy: "Listen... I'm not going to try and steal him away, okay? I admit I'm... I'm not happy about this, but if you're serious-"

Yang: "We are."

Katy: slowly nods "I'm glad."

Silence. Then...

Katy: "... I had thought that maybe when he came back, we could... We could work things out... But I've seen his eyes. He's not the same sweet little boy I knew, is he?"

Yang: "No. No, he's not. Maybe he's not the same guy you knew at all."

Katy: "Maybe... Just..." sighs "If you break his heart though... I'll be waiting."

Yang: "You'll have to get in line."

Katy: sighs "Ugh, seriously? How many girls are after him at Beacon?"

Yang: "So it's a recurring problem?"

Katy: "I think it's an Arc thing. His Nana and Papa have at least two other women who have been living with them forever and they never let Jaune date any of their great-grandkids."

Yang: snerk "Seriously?"

Katy: giggles "It happens in small communities! I had to check my family tree a few times before I asked Jaune out!"

Yang: "That would be a cat-tastrophe."

Katy: snickers "Yeah! Heheheh..."

They both laugh for a bit. Katy becomes serious again.

Katy: "But just know that he'd die before he ever cheated on you."

Yang: smiles "I know that too..."

Katy: sighs "Ugh... You know this would be easier if you were some kind of bitch, you know that?"

Yang: "Honestly? Same. When he talked about you, I felt like I couldn't measure up. Like you were nearly perfect, ready to become a housewife with a dozen kids. I mean... I wouldn't mind doing that for Jaune someday."

Katy: "... I would have done it for him. But the funny thing? After he left and I cried my eyes out... I had to figure out something else to do. And well? Turns out I like fashion designing. I'd kind of dropped it after our parents started on full support of us getting married. I thought Jaune would drop his Huntsman dreams too... But he didn't. If I'm being honest, it's why we had a lot of fights. He just wouldn't give it up."

Yang: "Sounds like him. Was he always that stubborn?"

Katy: "Ha! You should have seen him when he found a stray dog or cat or horse. He was always 'Mommy! Daddy! We need to keep them! They're so sad!' And his mom made a big fuss but she always gave in." chuckles "I mean... I thought he was dumb, after a while. I told him that. And a few other hurtful things..." sighs "I just had this vision of how life was going to be and it would be perfect and he just... He wouldn't agree, ya know?"

Yang: "If it helps? Yeah, I... I had an image in my head of what would happen when... When I met someone I've been trying to track down. Part of me hoped it... It would all be explained and everything would be fine forever."

Katy: "It wasn't, huh?"

Yang: "No..." sighs "I'm... I don't know what the future holds with Jaune... Which is pretty ironic, all things considered."

Katy: "Hm?"

Yang: "I mean, I just know that even though I don't know the future or how it's gonna turn out? I do know he's gonna be there with me... And I'll be there with him. And I think that's enough."

Katy: "I'm glad..."

More silence.

Katy: "Of course, if you break his heart, I'm going to make you suffer."

Yang: "Woah! Easy there, Kitkat. No need to bring out the claws."

Katy: "Ugh, you pun like his dad. No wonder he likes you."

Yang: "Heh. Guess you could say I'm aiming to be pun of the family?"

Katy: "Ugh! That was terrible!" giggles

In the kitchen...


Jaune: "Wait, they're giggling together. Is that good or bad?"

Shirou: "Eh, it's a coin toss at this point."
 
If we haven't added Gilgamesh expie in the fanon yet, let me add something.

Originally the schnee family came from Vacuo and Queen Gilgamesh(yes, fem!Gilgamesh) the first to have retained some magic due to her connection to Ozma's daughters, had a semblance she summoned magics and weapons from, which she passed down to her descendants once she came to Atlas but due to declining magic, they got a pretty watered down version.

She met Queen Artoria, on a tour to Albion and was immediately enamored. She decided she would grant Artoria all she wished in turn she wanted the Queen of Sabers to be her wife(or plaything as Gilgamesh said to her in private) but Queen Artoria was already in love with Shirou of the Arcs, a low born family that was born due to the marriage between Blacksmiths of Fujin and Clergy from Albion.

Instead of an all out battle, Shirou's foster father from Fujin(you know who I am talking about) requested an honorable duel to be held in private between Shirou and Queen Gilgamesh.

His father thought to use trickery to defeat Queen Gilgamesh due to her vast magical prowess but Queen Artoria had issues with it.

Shirou became the mediator between his father and his Lover and decided that they can put a few stipulations to make it easier for them, knowing the prideful Queen will accept them.

With those stipulations, Shirou will be allowed to use Queen Artoria's aura along with his own(yes, she had a pretty semblance to Jaune but instead of defense, it first focused on offense), and after a great battle, he emerged victorious against the Vain Queen.

Now, Gilgamesh might have had a lot of vices but she was a warrior queen nonetheless, so she said she would graciously accept both Shiro and Artoria as her concubines.

Saber let of the biggest "EEEEEEXXXXXXXXXCALIBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" that day and Cartographers had to work extra hard for the next few years to rework their maps.

So now Arcs and Schnees have some generational feuds and a little bit of tsundere tendencies from the Schnee side.
 
So here's a idea that I'm gonna put out halfway complete because I can see a hundred ways to take it.

So we know Jaune has a questionable relationship with truth. And Weiss isn't his biggest fan. Let's give her a reason not to.



Ruby: how come you don't like Jaune?

Weiss: because he's a liar.

Ruby: you don't even talk to him, how could he lie to you?

Weiss: he's not lying to me he's lying to everyone else.

Ruby: huh?

Weiss: I've met Jaune Arc. Jaune Arc is a friend of mine. THAT ISN'T JAUNE ARC!

Ok I am seriously intrigued by this. Cook more.
 
Ok I am seriously intrigued by this. Cook more.
Like I said a lot of ways to take this.

Could be she met Jaune when they were really little and after that only talked to Jaune over letters. So she's got a distorted view of him and his in person self isn't matching up.

Could be Jaune died on the way to beacon and someone assumed his identity.

Could be Jaune getting hit with something (semblance, trauma, baseball bat) that caused a personality shift before beacon and nobody told Weiss (because they're to busy panicking and looking for the kid who might have brain damage)
 
Some prompts before I sleep:

-What are some scenarios under which Whitley Schnee and Blake Belladonna might end up together? If not romantically?

-Eve, Adam Taurus' sister, as a concept. What if she was a Specialist with Atlas trying to make up for all the things her brother had done?

-Katy Sith comes to Beacon to try and convince Jaune to come home. It doesn't go well.

-RWBY and JNPR take an art class. It doesn't go very well.

-RWBY loses to JNPR in a training fight, and Ruby has to deal with the fallout and her failures as a leader.

-Let's say the Vytal Festival was delayed longer and there were mini-arcs of RWBY and JNPR going on training missions. What are your ideas for plots involving these training episodes?
 
-Katy Sith comes to Beacon to try and convince Jaune to come home. It doesn't go well.

This prompt gave me a different idea.

Everyone is eating in the cafeteria catching up on what they did over break.

Jaune is not really contributing to the conversation and is just picking at his food. It's clear he's upset with something.

When asked Jaune brushes it off and leaves however he doesn't notice that his wallet falls out of his pocket.

One of the gang picks it up and opens it and is shocked to see a picture of Jaune with his arm around a girl.

All of them speculate on who she is and assume it must be his girlfriend. Weiss is pissed because she assumes that this means he was trying to cheat on his girlfriend with her.

They confront Jaune and he explains that it's his ex before going into their history.

Explains that they were childhood friends and eventually started dating, that they were each other's firsts in everything, and that Jaune even considered marrying her.

Ruby asks what happened.

Jaune explains that initially she was the only one that supported his dreams of becoming a huntsman however one day that changed and suddenly they constantly fought over the idea of him going to beacon and that it was the reason they broke up. Jaune then left for Beacon without seeing her again.

Jaune then explains that he went back to his home town during the break and tried to apologize for how things ended only to discover that after he left for Beacon she moved out of town without telling anyone.

Seeing how much this is affecting his friends decide to take him out up Vale to cheer him up.

While in town Jaune is suprised when he spots his ex and calls out to her causing her to turn around.

Jaune then notices two things the panicked look on her face and the noticeable baby bump.

Jaune is frozen in place as she leaves and everything clicks in his mind. Later Jaune gets a text from her containing an address and time to meet up. Jaune goes and she tells him the truth.

Not long before the arguments started she discovered she was pregnant but was scared to tell him because she knew he would have given up his dream in order to stay with her and she was scared he would resent her and the baby. However she was scared of him dying at beacon and points out he was going there with no training or knowledge of being a huntsman.

Jaune realized this is why they started arguing every time Beacon got brought up.

Jaune then asks why she left and she points out that his mother is the town doctor and she would have found out and told him.

She goes onto explained that after their breakup, she wasn't sure if she wanted to keep the child, but regardless, she couldn't have him finding out. So she left for Vale.

They talk some more and she agrees to let Jaune attend doctor appointments and be in the delivery room when she gives birth.

As time goes by Jaune's friends evergreen l eventually help the two reconnect and they decide to try again.
 
The Boy with Two Souls New
OK, it seems I got the same bugs that AJT got, while I was revisiting Jaune SI BS threadmarks. Two souls, where one runs away from home and the other yearns for it.

Thankfully, the bastard ROB gave the unfortunate hitchhiker access to his world's Internet.

Be warned, I tend to swear like a guy who just learned how to swear while I think and that's gonna reflect on the SI.

Ugly son of a flea riddled whore, literally the fuck was that? I ain't even Japanese but still got fucking Isekai'd. Well, let' see who is the unfortunate sinner I gotta torment with my self right now.

He opens his eyes and looks around, few things standing out to him. a) he was impaled by very, very well constructed spear, which he was tempted to take out and fiddle with if not the fact it seems to have been thrown by a very very good athlete b) He was in a forest and c) He seems to be a broke LARPer with a weird combination of Hoodie, Jeans, sneakers, sword and scabbard and ill fitted plate armour.

Then the memories hit.

.....I wanna go back home and cry to my momma, whichever universe it is. But, momma also raised an emotionally weak, white knight bitch, so I am gonna make sure none of these suddenly well rendered people don't face a Fate style bad end.

On further inspection, it was a merging of souls, which did douse SI's fear of judgement based on the amount and type of fucked up porn he watched and fucked up shit he did in his past life was semi-eradicated. It was fully eradicated once he went through the other set of memories and realised that youthful misdemeanours are a common things and Jaune was almost his equal in that.

Now he looked for the Schnee heiress that would appear as he knows from his jumbled memories of this setting, which made him regret not seriously watching this series on account of Tumblr.

Hoping that the whole was greater than the sum of its parts, his manly charisma would charm Weiss to take him off the tree and forget the absolute shameful perfromance that was his first impression.

"Hmph" was the young Schnee's offering to his plight and he realised he will have to do this one by the book.

"I am sorry!", said (more like sang to his ears) a voice, one he knew and oh so dearly missed.

"
ummm, I am not gonna judge but is this yours?", said Jaune

"Ahhh, yes, I was trying to ..um help you!" replied the Myrmidion.

After finally being released from the tree, he said " So, Pyrrha, right? Thanks for the help though I gotta ask for a solid".

"Anything!", Pyrrha replied. oof gonna have to deal with this in the future. "Could you unlock my Aura?" he requested, meekly. "What? you don't have your Aura unlocked?" asked Pyrrha, both puzzled and bewildered.

"Long story short, had a bit of dispute with mom about my future goals, she wanted me to be a doctor and would unlock my aura once I started medical school, I wanted to wedgie Grimm. So after a series of events that you really don't wanna know about, here I am, Jaune Arc, without Aura but with a kick ass Sword and Shield"

"Oh. Well Jaune, I like your confidence and optimism, so please allow me to help you", said Pyrrha as she started to chant.

As soon as she succeeded, something was immediately different, His skin glowed gold but with solid outline of Blue, dark Blue.

Immediately, Pyrrha fell on Jaune, the unlocking ceremony taking a lot out of her especially considering she unlocked not one but two soul's inner power.

I have a theory, let's see if this works, especially considering I or atleast Jaune part of me is already in the healer mindset.

The theory was as follows. An external soul would have a better gauge and control over a power system, simply because it was foreign to them. An obvious addition that could be measured intrinsically from the perspective of someone who hadn't spent an entire life with the same depth a character did with the existence of a definite and measurable power.

Physics had a similar dogma. To study anything properly, you need a frame of reference and something to quantify change. Time usually took the place of quantification of change as it is the entity that existed between events. Now, his frame of reference was the immigrant soul and the changing quantity was the feel of Aura itself.

OK, Pyrrha, I know you have spent your life hiding yourself, but please open up to me and let me take some burden.

Jaune chanted in his mind, knowing that words played a significant role in matters of heart and soul. He knew with 100 percent surety he could share her burden, he could strengthen her, revitailise, he knew he could save her.

Not only was the immigrant soul changed, but Jaune's soul too saw his ultimate outcome, so it acknowledged, it brightened and like a weak signal running through a repeater, it amplified.

Pyrrha, glowed with the same golden he glowed, and he acknowledged in the deep confines of his mind, she is absolutely gorgeous. While Jaune wasn't really a connoisseur, he could see the beauty in Pyrrha's strength. Somebody who had sculpted herself like Michelangelo. Strength and Endurance hand in hand.

And yet, it took this demigod this much effort. Now I am seeing or rather feeling it, I can totally imagine why.

He had consumed media in the Shonen genre that often commented how the Hero has absurd reserves of energy of whatever power system they belonged to and he often wondered, how it would feel like to command the strength of immovable titans in a body that hasn't even reached adulthood.

It was overwhelming but like a fluffy blanket that reminded you of home. Like those cardboard boxes he used to arrange in his childhood and pretended to rule over. It was his, his to grow, his to give and his to bend. No, it was him. Yes, he, this power was him, without filter and without judgement.


Goddamn, I gotta get my head in the game or I am gonna have to ask mom if she ever eloped with some white haired samurai, cause I am sounding more like fucking Vergil by the minute.

Pyrrha had been healed already and yet she was still leaning against him, so Jaune asked, "Yo, Pyrrha, did my trick work or do I gave to re-evaluate years of headcanon? That would suck but I'll live"

Pyrrha blushingly stood on her on feet and stopped taking Jaune's support, already missing his warm embrace and surprisingly muscular biceps.

"NO!, I mean umm, yes, I feel healed and even better actually!, It seems you have already figured out your gift as well!", she answered, now back to her proper posture and feeling like she could actually survive those interviews she had to do for that Energy drink sponsorship.

"Yeah, I guess I did have some framework already, all it took was a trigger and seeing a tall, muscular girl fall literally into your arms is one hell of a motivator", said Jaune, full of motivation.

OK, did Jaune have some Sparda in his bloodline? Cause I am going abso-fucking-lutely crazy right now

"OH!
that's umm very kind of you to say, well! let's uhhh go th-", Pyrrha tried to say before both she and Jaune sensed something weird and without any prompting Jaune covered her six, both of them with shields out and enough spacing that neither will have problem maneuvering, immediately they were surrounded by Beowulfs, and an Alpha.

For a moment, there was a tense silence, as neither party attacked, then on an invisible signal, Pyrrha moved and a single swipe of Akuo, Decapitated three Beowulfs and bashed another two the side.

On the other hand.

Well, trial by fire it is, let's see if my second theory was sound

The second theory was as follows, you can temporarily substitute precise control with raw excess power, if the end result you wanted was destruction.

Following this, Jaune too leapt, despite the danger, he was deceptively calm, his more ADHD half from the SI thriving in Adrenaline rich chaos, remembering his Roller Blading days and knowing the importance of balance, kept his center of Mass between his feet, even while moving forward as he didn't wish to slip and become easy pickings, keepinf his shield in front but further from his body (those 3 am Youtube videos had to be useful) and Sword in the center line, inline with his wrist for maximum dexterity.

He sent aura to his fingers, using the mechanoreceptors on them to determine how much did Aura increase pressure and force and once he had some measure, he started to send small streams to his tongue, to feel the change in sensitivity of touch and gauge how much would did aura affect that, then to his nose, then to his eyes last. Once he had understood how aura affected his senses, he enhanced the effects with his semblance to his ears.

You know, it's good for short term but I gotta start working with Ren quick to really start pushing it to limits.

Immediately sensing an upsurge in Aura usage, A Beowulf charged at Jaune, who he sidestepped with his footwork and immediately Stabbed in the throat, sending more Aura to his Arms and legs, ripped his sword out, kicked it away then shoulder bashed another Beowulf coming from the side all the while making sure his shield didn't leave any opening to his torso.

Seemingly having enough, the Alpha charged as well, Jaune and Pyrrha, sensing him in unison readied themselves.

Immediately, the structure of a plan formed in Jaune's mind, he flared his Aura more, steadying and crouching a little, attracted the Alpha to him and as soon as the Alpha was near him, he yelled, "Pyrrha! Stab it" and as the Alpha crashed against him, his Aura taking a hit which disoriented Jaune a little but till then Pyrrha had reached him and already dispatched the Alpha with a well placed javelin to the cranium.

And just like that, the surrounding Grimm were gone.

A moment of relief, among a chaotic adventure sure to unfold.
