VERSES

quick explanation of my verses!

┆ᶤ ˢᵗᵃʳᵗ ᵗᵒ ᶠᵉᵉˡ ᵃˡᶤᵛᵉ┆ ┈ vol 2

neo doesn’t quite know much, if anything, about RWBY, she doesn’t even know JNPR, she’s pretty much completely unknown. lot happier now than in later verses, probably the easiest one for me to ship neo with people.

¦ᶤ ˢᵃᵗ ᵗʰᵉʳᵉ ᶜˡᶤᶰᵍᶤᶰᵍ ᵒᶰᵗᵒ ᵐʸ ᵏᶰᵉᵉˢ ᶤᶰ ᵈᵉᶰᶤᵃˡ¦ ┈ vol 3

this is BEFORE neo & roman vs ruby. she’s largely in disguise at this time, and seeing as i lack the icons for disguises you’ll just have to accept that the icons are neo. a lot of school life kind of things here, and if its ships its a sort of ‘forbidden romance’ kinda thing.

¦ʷʰᵃᵗ ᵃ ᶠᵒᵒˡ ᶤ ʷᵃˢ ᶠᵒʳ ᵗʰᶤᶰᵏᶤᶰᵍ ᶤ ᶜᵒᵘˡᵈ ᵏᵉᵉᵖ  ʸᵒᵘ¦ ┈ vol 4

this is right after neo loses roman. she’s lost in vale, and is just breaking down 24/7. don’t really know what to do in this verse so uh.

¦ᵗʰᵉ ʰᵃᵗᵉ ˢᵒ ᵖᵘʳᵉ ᶤˢ ᵗʰᵉ ˡᶤᶠᵉ ᵒᶠ ᵐᵉ¦ ┈ vol 5

she’s making her way towards mistral, her actual home in her opinion, and she is pissed. also don’t really know what to do in this.

┆ʸᵒᵘ ᵏᶰᵒʷ ᶤ'ᵐ ᵒᶰ ʸᵒᵘʳ ˢᶤᵈᵉ┆ ┈ vol 6

this is where neo is introduced to ruby n co. largely based around her adjusting in the life of being a protagonist, she is largely uncooperative with people, and pretty much 5 seconds away from hitting people with hush. shipping with neo here is a massive pain in the ass b/c of it

¦ᶤ ᵗʳᶤᵉᵈ; ᶤ ᵐᵉᵃᶰᵗ ᵗᵒ ᵐᵃᵏᵉ ᶤᵗ ʳᶤᵍʰᵗ¦ ┈ vol 7

neo ‘fuck da police’ politan is introduced to the ace-ops. she’s mellowed out a bit more now, and is willing to at least have semi positive relationships with people, but she’s still pretty damn distant from everyone.

¦ᵇʳᶤᶰᵍ ᵐᵉ ᵗʰᵉ ʷᵃʳ¦ ┈ vol 8

i honestly don’t know. this is just a verse tag for volume 8 whenever it happens, mainly because i have to at least figure out what they’re gonna do during volume 8 and put neo in there somehow. probably be going to vacuo, which neo despises bc its too damn hot and sandy there.

¦ᵉᵛᵉʳʸ ˢᵗᵉᵖ ᵗᵒʷᵃʳᵈˢ ʸᵒᵘ ᵗᵃᵏᵉˢ ᵐᵉ ᵗᵒʷᵃʳᵈˢ ᵗᵒ ᵐʸ ᵉᶰᵈ¦ ┈ canon vol 6 ¦ᵗʰᵉ ᵖᵃʳᵗ ᵒᶠ ᵗʰᵉ ᵖˡᵃʸ ʷʰᵉʳᵉ ᵗʰᵉ ʰᵉʳᵒ ᶤˢ ˢᵉᶰᵗᵉᶰᶜᵉᵈ ᵗᵒ ᵈᵉᵃᵗʰ¦ ┈ canon vol 7 ¦ᵗʰᶤˢ ᶤˢ ᵗʰᵉ ᵉᶰᵈ ᵒᶠ ᵐᵉ¦ ┈ canon vol 8

sigh. i guess i have to do a small blurb about these ones. its canon neo. you’ve all seen my dislike of these verses. note, i do not ship cinder and neo in these verses, to me their relationship is purely like, professional ig? my neo just isnt the kind of person to think of cinder in that way, and she still hates her. anyways, yeah. its canon neo. i dislike these verses a lot.

NON-RWBY VERSES

hoo boy. i have a lot of these fuckers. it’ll just be a tl;dr and a link to the writeup i have on the topic, then we’re gucci.

┆ᵗʰᵉʳᵉˢ ᵃ ʳᵉᵃˢᵒᶰ ˢʰᵉˢ ᵃˡᵒᶰᵉ; ʸᵒᵘ ᶜᵃᶰᵗ ᵖᶤᶰ ʰᵉʳ ᵈᵒʷᶰ┆ ┈ pjo

tl;dr neo is a demigoddess of hermes, she wanders around a lot, is mute due to a throat injury, write up is HERE!

┆ᵗʰᵉ ᶜˡᵒᶜᵏˢ ᶤᶰ ᵗʰᵉ ʷᵃˡˡ ᵃʳᵉ ᶰᵘᵐᵇ┆ ┈ unknown verse

tl;dr this is a verse where i honestly dont know which verse it belongs in. idk. write-up is HERE!

┆ᵇᵘᵗ ᵗʰᵉ ˡᵉᵃᵛᵉˢ ʰᵃᵛᵉ ᶠᵃˡˡᵉᶰ; ᵗʰᵉ ᵗʳᵃᶤˡ ᶤˢ ᵒᵛᵉʳᵍʳᵒʷᶰ┆ ┈ pokemon

tl;dr neo is a mafia owner who is mute due to a birth defect, she has a zoroark, a mimikyuu, and a ditto. the legendary she’d bond with would be darkrai, and her zoroark is a service pokemon. write-up is HERE!

┆ᵗʰᵉʳᵉˢ ᶰᵒ ˡᵒᵛᵉ ᶤᶰ ᵗʰᵉ ᶜᶤᵗʸ┆ ┈ modern

neo is a makeup artist/hair stylist who is mute due to a birth defect, she has mafia ties, and lives in a large-ish city to get away from her past. write-up is HERE!

┆ᶠᵉᵉᵈ ᵗʰᵉ ᵇᵉᵃˢᵗ┆ ┈ urban fantasy

same thing as modern verse, but neo is a shapeshifter/doppelganger thingy. write-up is HERE!

┆ʷᵉ ʰᵃᵛᵉ ᵇᵉᵉᶰ ᵗʰʳᵒᵘᵍʰ ˢᵒ ᵐᵘᶜʰ; ʷᵉ ᶜᵃᶰ ᵇᵉᵃᵗ ᵃˡˡ ᵗʰᵉ ᵒᵈᵈˢ┆ ┈ quadruplets

HOO BOY. JUST READ THE WRITE-UP. SPEAKING OF WHICH, ITS HERE!

┆ᶤ ᵃᵐ ʸᵒᵘʳ ᵃᵘʳᵃ; ʰᵘᶰᵍᵉʳ ᶠᵒʳ ʰᵒᶰᵒʳ; ᶤ ʰᵒˡᵈ ᵗʰᵉ ᵖᵒʷᵉʳ ʸᵒᵘ ˢᵉᵉᵏ┆ ┈ gods

tl;dr neo is a god/goddess of disguises, lies, and exiles. most noticeable change is that neo is nonbinary in this due to their disguise fuckery. write-up is HERE! and this is my favorite verse ive done.

[idkmanitstesting]

since i heavily dislike CRWBY’s take on neo, i have decided to throw the canon away and be canon divergent.

TL;DR

neo fights cinder, sees the fact she’s a maiden and then runs away. finds ruby, convinces her to agree to a truce, and eventually sticks around after finding a suitable replacement to the safety roman offered her.

THE DIVERGENCY

to go more indepth, neo fights cinder in vol 6 ep 5, starts searching for ruby and her friends during the time between ep 5 and ep 7, and she eventually finds her episode 7. neo ‘talks’ to ruby about calling a truce, the two agree, and she is allowed into the group. they’re suspicious of her, of course. i mean, she did try killing ruby and yang, and neo isn’t exactly happy about helping them.

during the cordovin mech fight, she disappears from the group and somehow gets her way into the mech, weakening them from the inside. sure, she doesn’t do a lot of external damage, but it turns out that smashing engines is fun.

volume 7 rolls around, and neo is arrested by the ace-ops (who are VERY confused as to how a wanted criminal who was declared legally dead is somehow alive) along with the rest of RWBY n co, but she does go down fighting. she‘s absent until episode 4 due to being arrested, and she’s also responsible for a lot of crimes, so they have to work out a way for her to be free and not arrested.

once she is released, she’s not made a huntress because, well, she’s a criminal and never went to a school like beacon or atlas academy. she does get the healthcare, which she quite likes.

a large portion of volume 7′s is spent with her trying to train RWBY n JNR to get good at fighting, which is... not really a success. she’s not a good teacher, so it boils down to her curbstomping JNR and putting hurt onto RWBY. she largely duels ace-ops in 1v1s. i don’t know if she’d win, but she’d probably be able to hold her own against one of them.

during the mansion scenes, she buggers off as a maid to attempt to find cinder or anyone she brought with her. she probably finds cinder, clashes a bit, and runs off to tell the others that she’s here. volume 7 ep 13, she’s with JNOR to try and keep the relic in their hands, and by this point she’s probably ok with everyone. not like, friends or anything, but she’s relaxed enough to maybe tease them. idk if they’d lose the relic or not, but i know for a fact that upon seeing salem, neo would be shaken. she’s heard a lot of bad things about that daemon.

RELATIONSHIPS

her most likely friend in the group would probably be jaune. both have lost a redhaired loved one to cinder, both are pretty pissed at everything happening, and i also like the idea of jaune’s aura amplification power somehow healing neo’s vocal cords and allowing her to talk once again. that probably wouldn’t happen, but its nice to think about.

the other people she’s most likely to be ok friends with? in no particular order, perhaps ren, maybe weiss, oscar, and uh. idk. qrow maybe? she’d probably end up respecting him.

i don’t think neo would ever particularly be friends with ruby or yang at all. she might have a friendly rivalry with yang, MAYBE. chances are, she’s cold towards yang and still outright unfriendly to ruby. perhaps if ruby could beat her in a fight, neo might respect her skills as a fighter, but she would still 100% hunt down ruby after cinder is dead.

that should be everything. neo during this verse is still hilariously angry after everything that has happened to her, so shipping is a bit of a pain, but i believe that i could probably work out ships. except for neo and ruby, thats fucking nasty, rubys like 17 and neo’s 22-23. thats fucking gross, get away from me if you like that ship at all.

ANYWAYS. hope this explains my divergency well enough. if you have any questions, dont be afraid to DM me about this, i absolutely love explaining this verse to people

[idkmanitstesting]

tag dump for verse tags. gonna do a new write up on my verse page and divergency page here too, probably sometime this week. idk. legit all of these except for vol 5 is a line from dabin’s two heart album, as are the rest of my organizational tags

[idkmanitstesting]

just remember kids, during volume 2 and before the finale of volume 3, neo was doing better than she had been doing in a long while. she finally had someone who actually cared about her, she had a roof over her head and food to eat, she was pretty content in that life.

then roman dies, and she’s thrown back into uncertainty. its a marvel that she didn’t just continue fighting against cinder until cinder was forced to kill her.

[idkmanitstesting]

i still really wanna write with a cinder just as long as it isnt cinneo

sigh

[idkmanitstesting]

hmmmm

gonna redo some tags, post them on here, move them over to infiltrctor when i take it off hiatus

add in volume specific tags tbh, prob like... vol 2, vol 3, vol 6, vol 7, and a vol 8 tag, although vol 8 would be like. super weird ig. seeing as we dont have any knowledge about it. eh. a day project tbh cos i like using song lyrics for tags

[idkmanitstesting]

when neo was still with roman, the two would attempt to coordinate their outfits somewhat, with neos outfit being a more subdued, classier version of romans. however, once roman died, neo was sorta left behind in everything, including her fashion sense. as a result, she's kinda winging it.

little bits and pieces of romans outfit (the eyeshadow + scarf) serve to remind her of who she's seeking revenge for, and she tends to mimic other peoples outfits as well. in my main verse, she might integrate pieces of RWBYJNRs outfits into hers, i.e. a small piece of shoulder armor similar to jaunes, or perhap tying her hair up to mimic weiss'. it depends on who she becomes closest to

[idkmanitstesting]

[idkmanitstesting]

quick tag dump so i can organize this mess of a blog a bit more

[idkmanitstesting]

someone asked: yadda yadda yadda

unprompted | always accepting

this is a really shit response because i want to test stuff. ' look, neo is saying stuff! well, not saying, because she's mute. same thing, though. ' maybe she'll be smug again. or rude. probably both, knowing her life.
