[RWBY] RWBY Shorts

[Sir_Gaea]

Anyway, another idea:

Isabel Arc's Semblance "Total Body Control" can let her shape-shift to some extent. She can't change, say, her gender but she can change her skin, hair and eye color, height, weight, apparent age, voice to some extent and a few other things. It's rather Aura energy-intensive and requires a lot of focus. The longest she can maintain it is an hour, maybe two if she really pushes it. She can't really fight in another form either, and the more complicated the transformation, the more energy it takes. It's not really her first option, either: She's more focused on martial arts and smashing things/status effects for combat.

Even so, what are some fun things she might do with this ability?

I mean... Aside from with her husband in the bedroom.

This sounds like a great way to get more cryptids in the news. Leave 'evidence' all over the place, all those photos.

 

[IvanR1314]

if Isabel cannot go full on Disguise Master and Eldrich Combat Horror Shapeshifter like Alex Mercer from Prototype, maybe more subtle stuff like bone reinforcement, muscle improvement and the like, since I know that Aura is finite and a resource for both Health and Mana bars in RWBY.

A few more ideas and prompts:

-Sun's adopted father, Tang, is old friends with Jaune's parents. So they're Blond Bros!

-The rest of Aqua's team reaches Beacon and Jaune is hoping to resolve things between his sister and her boyfriend Kazuma so they'll leave.

-What do we know about Neptune's background, anyway? Let's come up with stuff!

-Isabel and Nick were at Mountain Glenn. What did they experience? Nothing good, probably. And this may be why they forbade Jaune from becoming a Huntsman.

-Ruby teaches Pyrrha how to maintain and repair her weapons, as Pyrrha has never had to do that before.

-Give me more ideas for "Cowboys of Remnant!"

-Give me more ideas for "Doctor Knowall"!

-Nick Arc had to learn how to be a farmer as well as a husband and father. What are some ideas for scenes from his efforts?

-What if Weiss did have one male relative she cares about? Her last living uncle was disowned by her grandfather who makes a living as a Huntsman. Let's explore him!

Add in Taiyang too and the trio are a walking blonde shirtless scene/abs expo.

They're also banned from going anywhere just the three of them, without Isabel (or Summer when she was alive) to herd them. The results of the last time they did are used as horror stories by Vale PD and civil engineers alike.

Blake: "Sooo... In order to become the ruler of Menagerie, I need to marry a man to give me children. And Sun's a Faunus so he won't be rejected! So I get the position and power and everything!"

And when she gets back to Menagerie, Ghira turns out to have been defeated in the local elections.

By Bugs, Velvet's grandfather.

But it would be hilarious if Blake's idiosyncrasies carried on to her method of rule, like "faunus can't be racist, herbivores are inferior to carnivores, cats are better than everyone else..."

Jaune: "When I got out of the hospital after being born, my dad went and dragged a Deathstalker by the tail to town so the whole militia and anyone else could beat it up to celebrate. They then took photos with it after painting it pink to 'humiliate it'. They finally finished it off by blowing it up with Dust bombs and fireworks."



Yang: "... You have pictures?"



Jaune dutifully shows pictures of himself as a newborn, held between his happy parents... In front of a bound Deathstalker in makeup.



Blake: "... Why is dressed up like a whore?"



Jaune: "That's the only make up template my Dad knows."

 

[RustedSands]

Yang:what did he do when your nephew was born?
Jaune: lets just say it involved a pack of beowolves and a lot of bondage gear.
Yang: ....... I'm starting to see why you have so many siblings.... And how you can deal with nora.

okay an idea I'd like to see someone tackle.

Nora notices Jaune and Ren get passed notes during class and both of them look at it then at each other nod and toss them to go off to talk tothe guy passing them the note.

Nora intercepts... and get surprisedby what it is. Team RWBY hotness ranking as noted by the boys of Beacon

Nora beiing the little shit stirrer decides to let team RWBY know about and thier somewhat suprpising rankings by thier peers.

A clear winner but a surprisingly close number 2 with 3 and 4 left in the dust.

Yang as the clear winner but commonly noted her overly compettive nature detreacts a bit.
Yang: I mean I am the obvious choice but overly competettive? WTF?

The surprisingly close 2? Ruby herself. She's just plain cute and a lof of the guys who picked her think she is just a growth spurt away from being as stacked as Yang, as they are sisters.
Ruby: EEEP

Blake lags far behind Ruby maybe by half as many votes. General consensus Hot but way too aloof with some sort of chip on her shoulder
Blake: .....
and in last even further back poor Weiss. The high maintance Ice Queen.
Weiss: HIGH MAINTANCE?! I AM REFINED AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS THE TREASURE I AM!

 

[AndrewJTalon]

I mean, that is a thing in real life. Highschoolers and college kids will make hotness lists of their classmates.

Isabel often scored pretty high at Beacon but her personality was also a big turnoff. Too cold and controlling and arrogant.

Saia was ranked very highly as "prime waifu material" since she was a big boobied shy girl but the fact she always went around in modest robes was a bummer. Also Arjun would knife anyone who tried to put the moves on his "servant" and later wife.

Raven was also very popular but same problem as Isabel: The personality was rotten. Though some guys wanted her to dominate them, they didn't realize she just wanted to steal their shit.

Summer was happiness and sunshine and so she was very popular... Though she was also kind of a freak. Which was NOT a turnoff to many guys, nosiree.

White Knight Errant verse

If Aqua has been pushed into "Downriht livid", Kazuma gifts her one minute.

Specifically anything Aqua asks, Kazuma has to say "Yes goddess" to for one minute. And fulfill it.

(Based on a moment with Vtuber Vexoria and her husband Zolon. I'd link the video, but i'm pretty sure that it would violate something.)

With darkness and megumin mediating so things don't go too far

Aqua: Will you buy me a minibar?

Kazuma: Yes goddesss

Aqua: will you give me a massage tonight?

Kazuma: yes goddess

Aqua: Will you let me peg you?

Kazuma: *in tears* ye-he-hes goddess!

Aqua: Will you let me peg you in the maid outfit?!

Kazuma: *cringing* yes goddess!

Aqua: Will you take me to the Hot Springs for our anniversary?

Kazuma: Yes Goddess, *genuine confusion* why do you have to ask that?

Aqua: will you give me 100,000 Lien?!

Kazuma: gllrlrgh … yes goddess

Aqua: Can you say that again?

Kazuma: *in tears* ye-hehehes goddess.

Jaune Arc was the mild mannered (mostly) Beacon student by day... And sometimes by night.



But at night... Also sometimes the day... He was THE HUNTSMAN! Vale's number one superhero!



With his trusty sidekick, Wonder Zwei, the intrepid duo stealthily climbed through the window of the Old Vale Manse, now the Federal Records Building, and crept through the shadows.



Huntsman and Wonder Zwei made it to an intersection of halls. The Huntsman turned to Zwei.



"Well, Wonder Zwei? Which way?" He asked.



"Arf," Zwei said, pointing to the right. The Huntsman frowned.



"The server room? All right! Let's see what this cyber criminal has in store with the storage of sensitive secrets!"



They leaped into action, charging down the hallway, waving at the security cameras, before finding the server room door ajar. Dramatically, the Huntsman and Wonder Zwei burst through the door, capes waving thanks to their quick sprints.



(In the absence of dramatic wind or fans, it was necessary to convey momentum to your capes. It was just tradition.)



"Stop right there you felonious... Feline?" Huntsman trailed off in shock.



In the center of the main server room was a shapely female form in a tight black leather. A black whip hung from her belt, resembling a cat's tail. Cat-like ears poked out of the top of her black mask, which was also leather. Frankly it looked like it was suffocating to wear, especially given the weather.



Then again, the tempting trespasser didn't seem to be bothered as she turned a sultry smirk towards the Valean Vanguard.



"Why hello, Huntsman~. I was hoping to run into you," she purred.



Wait... This is... YES! MY FIRST SUPERVILLAINESS! Jaune thought happily. Well, second. Or third? Does Neo count? Also Red Huntress is out there. What on Remnant is driving young ladies to a life of crime? Oh right, focus.



"Surrender and come quietly, miss... Uh..."



"Eidolon," the woman smirked. The Huntsman blinked.



"Er... Are you sure?"



Eidolon scowled.



"What? What's wrong with my supervillainess name, hm?"



"Well, I mean," Jaune shrugged, and gestured with his hand, "You have a cat theme going on so I kind of assumed-"



"What, just because I'm a cat-themed villainess I need a cat name?" The young lady demanded. The tone of her moral outrage was somehow familiar, but Huntsman didn't let that distract him.



"Well... I mean, it would make things easier," Huntsman said with a shrug.



"That's so stereotypical! Are you also going to assume I'm a cat Faunus?"



"Are you?" Jaune asked. "I didn't assume that!"



"Oh... Well..." Eidolon calmed herself, and resumed her sultry smirk. She rested a hand on her hip and raised her eyebrows at him.



"So nice of you to drop by, but you're too late! Soon, I will erase all the browser histories from all the computers in Vale! No nosy government workers or judgemental friends will ever see embarrassing porn histories ever again!"



Ah. The villain explaining their diabolical plan. This was much more his speed. It was even morally ambiguous! This was so exciting!



"While I appreciate that you respect people's privacy," Huntsman said, "And share a love for people's freedom of choice, breaking and entering is still a crime. I'm afraid I'll have to take you in."



"Oh really?" Eidolon said, gripping her whip with a confident smirk.



"Don't make this any harder than it has to be, Eidolon," Huntsman stated, in his gruffest vigilante voice.



"Why Huntsman! How hard do you want it to get?" Eidolon purred, sauntering up to him with swaying hips. Jaune did his very best not to blush behind his mask.



Oh Breaker above... She's flirting! I mean, I think Neo does that sometimes and maybe Red Huntress too, but wow! She's really blatant about it! Jaune thought happily. He then shook his head furiously to clear his thoughts. NO! I am a superhero! I can't be tempted by worldly desires!



He reached out to grab her wrists and pulled her close.



"Sorry. Not going to work," the Huntsman growled.



Eidolon smirked and pressed herself up against him.



"Oh? How about this~?"



Ohhh Table Breaker ohhh this is bad! Jaune thought as his blush could no longer be denied. He cleared his throat.



"Ah... Wonder Zwei?"



The Pooch of Power was typing on a laptop nearby.



"Arf!"



Jaune scowled.



"What do you mean you're blackmailing members of the Council?"



"Arf!"



"No you can't do it just because you disagree with the zoning laws! Do it the proper way! Bad dog!"



"Arf!"



"No I'm not flirting with her," Jaune again growled. Eidolon grinned.



"Doesn't seem that way to me, hero~," she crooned. "Why don't you join me and become a more morally ambiguous crusader for justice~? Who needs Lawful Good anyway?"



"Ugh, they keep making Neutral or Lawful Evil characters and it's become so boring," the Huntsman groaned, "I don't mind grittiness but when it's the only thing around? It all becomes the same. Like Ninjas of Love the graphic novel."



Eidolon's eyes widened and she grinned.



"Oh! Personally I thought some of the characters were a little too strait-laced and needed more ambiguity!"



"Maybe some of them, but they turned Satoshi into a creep, where before he was just deeply repressed," Huntsman argued back, "That changes the whole tone of his relationship with Maki and Sakura. Now it's like he was gaslighting them when he was just dealing with his childhood issues."



"I didn't see it that way," Eidolon huffed, "Though I will admit it made the scenes with his sensei, Yurika, a bit awkward."



A pause.



"The foursome was an unexpected but pleasant surprise."



"Really? I thought it was unnecessary fanservice," Huntsman said.



"Arf," Zwei said succinctly.



"We are not nerds!" Huntsman protested. The other door to the server room burst open, and a redheaded Huntress in Hellenic armor with red goggles and red cape appeared. Eidolon snarled.



"Red Huntress!"



"HAHA! I'm here to steal your crime, kitty kat!" Red Huntress cackled in a less than convincing evil laugh. One she cut abruptly as she saw the position the two were in. She narrowed her eyes behind her goggles.



"Red Huntress!" Huntsman gasped. "Here to steal another crime?"



"Yes! Because I am your part-Er, nemesis!" Red Huntress growled. "How DARE you dally with a new villainess!"



"What?! No, we-we just met!" Huntsman protested, trying to pull away from Eidolon. The wily cat-themed burglar held on more tightly and smirked at Red Huntress.



"Don't think of it as dallying. He's trading up! There's a NEW supervillainess in town, Red Huntress! One with moral ambiguity and complexity which makes for far more interesting adventures! Isn't that right, Huntsman~?"



"Errr," Huntsman tried, but Red Huntress scoffed.



"PLEASE! You're a Janey-Come-Lately! You'll NEVER have what we have! Now go run along to your litter box!"



"That's racist!"



"Oh! I'm sorry, are you an actual feline faunus under that mask?" Red Huntress asked, looking very apologetic. Eidolon blushed brightly.



"N-No! Of course not! But it could still be offensive to Feline Faunus!"



"Well GOOD! I'm trying to BE offensive to you, you-you...!" Red Huntress's face turned red and she forced herself to say the next word.



"Skank!"



Eidolon gasped.



"WHORE!"



"BITCH!"



"SLUT!"



The two supervillainesses lunged at eachother, engaging in what could be a very literal catfight (if one of them was a feline Faunus, of course). Huntsman just gaped in astonishment at the leather clad violence. Wonder Zwei trotted up and watched this conflict.



"Arf."



"Oil? Chocolate sauce?!" Huntsman demanded. "No Wonder Zwei, come now! That's demeaning to women everywhere!"



"Arf."



"Well no, I didn't ask if it would be demeaning-" Huntsman sighed as he heard police sirens. "Hey hey! Break it up you two!"



Both supervillainesses stood up and glared at each other.



"You can't keep him to yourself, Red Huntress," Eidolon growled, "I'm gonna steal him and do things you'll have to clear out a hundred browser histories to remove!"



"Like hell you will, you WHORE!" Red Huntress snarled. Eidolon threw down a smoke bomb, filling the room. Huntsman and Wonder Zwei donned their trusty air filter masks and scanned down as the smoke died away. Huntsman sighed-Eidolon was long gone.



"Well, guess we'll have to pick up her trail again, Wonder Zwei," Huntsman stated, his mood grim but determined. He turned around. "We'll start with-BWAH!"



Red Huntress stood in the doorway, glaring at him. Huntsman scowled.



"Why didn't you run off?!"



"Because... I mean..." She hesitated. "Am... Am I still your number one nemesis?"



She sounded so concerned over that. Huntsman did feel a pang of compassion. Perhaps Red Huntress was just... Lost. In need of guidance to return to the path of righteousness.



"Bringing you to justice and turning you to a better path than crime is my number one priority, Red Huntress," he growled, "You're always important to me."



Red Huntress... Squealed, before she threw down a smoke bomb and ran off with a happy smile. Huntsman and Wonder Zwei coughed-They had pulled off their gas masks too soon.



"Geez... What's with her?" Huntsman gagged.



"Arf."



"You said it, Wonder Zwei. Women are indeed crazy."



"Arf."



"Well no, it's not offensive when you call them that, but it is when I do!"

Because this silly idea wouldn't leave me alone until I'd shared it. Hope you enjoyed. And what are other adversaries the Huntsman might encounter with Wonder Zwei at his side?
