Sneaking His Way into the Multiverse (RWBY Jaune, WC-lite mechanics)

I just don't know how to joke about Remnant having mostly bisexual and being straight is not a thing there. Or would it be better to say that they don't have devision based on sexual orientation at all?

We have picky people (homo, hetero) and normal people? IDK, man. I mostly tune that shit out.

@LazyAutumnMoon, thanks for the chapter. Updated on my bd so that was a nice surprise. Anyways loving the pace and the adventure. Jaune discovering that yes, foreign languages are a thing, as are other cultures lol. And seducing Lisa in his wholesome, Labrador, shonenesque ways.

Sorry if it offended anyone. I just remembered how I read about Miles Luna confirming Jaune being bisexual.

As far as I remember, the phrase about bisexual Jaune was taken out of context about shipping. So it's not canon.

And it seems to me that the people of Remnant understand what sexual orientation is, Bi, hetero and homo, if you take into account that they appeared as hunter-gatherers, like us. It's just that as a result of the historical process they developed a different attitude towards this, like, if it makes you happy, doesn't interfere with the community and doesn't attract negativity, then great!

It's funny when you think about it. The nature of the Grimm means there is natural pressure not to be a judgmental asshole that creates an us/them divide for the community, because then none of you will live to see the sunrise.

Yet somehow, you still have the whole faunus racism thing to serve as the bigotry sink but doesn't get punished by the Grimm.

If you think of fauns as a side branch of human evolution, then there is nothing surprising, Homo sapiens and Neanderthals, I compare them because of their common features with fauns, that is, distinctive appearance, the ability to interbreed and a common territory of residence, These species of man sometimes fought with each other and then united, depending on resources and the environment. The struggle of species is such a ... difficult matter. Considering that both species have crossed the threshold of the tribal system, then the question of the struggle still remains and it is honestly a miracle that the inhabitants of Remnant did not wake up one day and did not choose violence (genocide), but are even trying to find opportunities for cooperation.
Yes, it doesn't sound very pleasant, but let's be honest, biology is a bitch,

Ah, but you're missing the point. You're talking about Earth like conditions where yes, the various tribes would go to genocidal war with one another for all the usual reasons.

This is not Earth. It is not a place where having learned tool use and creation pushes your species to the top of the food chain.

This is Remnant, and humanity (and faunus kind) is distinctly second place. At best. And the top predator exclusively hunts down and destroys humanity. Not only that, but is drawn to their negativity, be it anger, fear, hatred and all those other little building blocks that the vast majority of our divisions (be it racial, ethnic, philosophy or just plain old misanthropy) are based on.

Being an asshole is not a winning trait to have in the species, and those who are would have been actively culled for centuries, if not millennia. Grimm are the boogeymen that parents scare their children into behaving, except they're very, very real.

That's why it's funny. Roosterteeth created a world where the above is a fact of life, but failed to do consistent worldbuilding with it to the point where they even had full scale no holds barred wars between the various tribes that didn't result in everyone involved being drowned under a Grimm tide.

Colleague, you forget that the Kingdoms of Remnant are located where they are for a reason. These are places where the Grimm could not reach humans and fauns in significant quantities. And there are few such places, there is competition for them, because to take possession of such means to have the opportunity to develop.

In places where the grimms can't get to you, it's already quite possible to be an asshole due to competition between species and within species competition.

Yes, there is a possible danger, but according to Maslow's pyramid, the basic need for safety is satisfied. You have forces capable of resisting the Grimm and having surplus food. Which leads to the development of civilization. I'm not sure about wars, because we were not shown anywhere, but I think there were certain rules of combat regarding the attack of the Grimm.

What I'm saying is that the ability to be assholes is an ability that comes with safety.
I mean a standard metropolis like London, New York, Moscow or Tokyo produces so much negativity that the Grimm would storm them daily, but no, people live quite peacefully within the walls of the cities. And considering that people can also feed themselves, they have also cleared out a lot of space outside the city to grow food.

Interestingly, Mantl is the most racist towards fauns, being a place with the least resources to survive,while Vacuo, which was a thriving oasis with abundant resources before the Great War, is the least racist. Not sure if that was intended, but it's an interesting point.

Hmm, I was giving this story a re-read (because it is awesome), and I had a thought. It'd be interesting for them to reinsert in Dishonored 2, but a canon version rather than the one they visited. While it'd be nice to visit Emily again and see her all grown up and crushing on Jaune, it would also be interesting from a story perspective to introduce the idea of multiple parallel realities to Jaune. Not only would it be interesting to see Outsider 1 react to Outsider 2, forcing Jaune to confront the possibility meeting of another version of RWBY, one without Jax and without the Fall of Beacon would be interesting.

...I was about to also say it'd be interesting for him to confront the idea that the next time he enters RWBY, that it wouldn't be his RWBY, but then I remembered halfway through writing this that Jaune can in fact visit previous worlds, so that point was moot.

Also, it'd be funny for Jaune to see a grown up Emily and be all friendly with her, meanwhile she's just confused at this handsome stranger picking her out of the shadows during her revenge mission.

As a side note, now I'm wondering what would happen if Jaune manages to get a hold of a copy of RWBY dvd. His reactions to the ridiculous events and increasingly poor writing before its abrupt cancelation would be amusing and likely to induce an existential panic attack in him.

Jaune: We had GODS?! And the world is a nightmare because of what was the worst divorce in history?! And why is it cancelled? Don't we have access to the multiverse? Why isn't there a finished version out there somewhere?
Tattletale: Lol, lmao.
Jaune: How about we read Worm next?!
Tattletale: Please, how could my world possibly top that dumpster fire?

Knowing well the uphill struggle of persuading an Annoying Blonde otherwise, Jaune rolled his eyes, and dropped a hand on her head to ruffle her hair.

Tattletale stared.

He retracted his hand. "I…didn't mean to do that."

"R-right. Um." Tattletale swallowed. "Come on, we're wasting time standing around like this. I know just where to hit up first."

Gossip Girl's reaction told those who know at least a little more about her than she would like. And about her fetishes too. Who knew that she was one of the dirtiest perverts?
And probably about her too.
Etc... When do we expect obscenities to appear? I doubt it will happen very soon. I will devote about 15-20 chapters to this. Especially considering the author's admission that she has absolutely no regrets about interrupting the train of thought that led John to realize that Pyrrha is in love with him. I suddenly remembered a certain Sylvie and the memes about her.

It's basically a translator. Even when you've corrected the translation of a particular name 10 times, he still continues to translate as he sees fit. So sometimes such translation jambs slip through. Although, to be honest, you can't say that these shoes don't fit.
On the other hand... even translation programs want to insult her. That should mean something.

I'd argue that being competent and reliable easily outweighs whatever behavior or personality an individual has in a Deathworld. Sure, Douchei McBag is raging asshole with the largest racist boner to inversely match the size of his actual penis BUT if he can rip apart hordes of Grimm, destroy pesky Bandits and ensure the safety of the settlement/town/village/city etc. then Sir. Douchei is afforded leeway even by his victims. In their fucked up reality, they'd be Grimm food if he wasn't around to keep them all alive or atleast, maintain the comforts of their daily life. I get it, he's the largest prick this side of Remnant but he just ensured our homes aren't set on fire and our kids made into bit-sized snacks for the Beowolves, so yeah. They'd tolerate it. Until such a time comes, when they have the luxury not to.

Unless Sir Douchenozzle is a paragon of war and peerless warrior, his behavior is more likely to self cull when he finds himself cut off and without support in the middle of a horde.

You're thinking like someone from Earth, not Remnant. We got a glimpse of this in Season 1 with Cardin bullying Jaune yet HE gets away with it and Jaune himself ends up SAVING said Asshole when he could have let him be Ursa meal. Sure it might be Jaune wanting to be the hero etc. But he still ended up getting Cardin out of the mess. Hell, Velvet could have fucked up Cardin if she wanted but figured its not worth hurting to crippling freshmeat for the long war.

The shows doesn't say it but it did imply that dickheads like Cardin and his team and asshats like Jacques are tolerated because they could and have contributed something or someway to the Survival of the species. Cardin and his team as meatshield for the grinder and Jacques squeezing every last grain of dust from a pile of ashes.

Yet I'd say even in ours, people like Sir Douchenozzle finds a way to the tippyty top. Just looking at politians and people at business and you'd find a number of em.
 
I hope your vacation is going well.
I've been playing Subnautica recently and realized that Subnautica would be a pretty funny jump. "This is a really low threat ratting but such a high loot ratting!" they go and fall straight into the ocean and have to leave or drown.
It would also be an excellent option for loot, several of the tech tools available to the main character are basically magic, particularly the habitat builder, repair tool, stasis rifle, and fabricator.
