Good lord that was masterful lol. When you put it like that I can see why Jaune is necessary for her story. I never even imagined something like Jaune x Cinder could make so much sense. Jesus if you explain things THAT well then maybe I really should listen to your Knightfall Manifesto...

Aw, I almost didn't want to answer this because then it would leave my inbox lol. Thank you for such a lovely ask once again!

Posts referenced: 'Does Cinder have self-esteem?'

and follow-up 'How does Cinder heal?'

Yes, I think Jaune and Cinder's stories are interrelated and part of where I feel analysis of their character arcs drops the ball is not appreciating the other. It's where I feel people can't figure out what Jaune's going to do in the story or what's the symbolic point of his Semblance (or meaningful relation to Ruby or the greater story) and in Cinder's case if they theorise about her redemption is often 'just-so' - Character A (swappable with anyone) will simply help Cinder because that needs to happen, but we're not exactly sure why, and not sure why it couldn't have happened sooner (or people just think Cinder will die I guess. Jaune will kill her. Something something nonsense).

Suffice it to say, I find that analysis insufficient and in addition to that not really that respectful of how R/WBY does redemption arcs anyway. There coupled pairs (platonic, familial... romantic) that are involved with each other's redemption which then opens up the way for their connection to other characters. Blake-Ilia, Yang-Raven, Penny-Winter, Emerald-Mercury, Oscar-Hazel - characters who do not exactly exist in isolation, because once their stories open up, you have Ilia helping restore the White Fang, Raven going to Tai, Winter helping Marrow and her sister, Emerald being able to fully accept Hazel's help (and be released from perma-childhood) and even help Oscar... and Emerald-Mercury is a special case because his gift to her will be returned twicefold.

So, if am expecting a romantic pair out of Emerald-Mercury's shared redemption arcs (allies-to-enemies-to-lovers) - yeah that seems kind of inevitable to me lol, the romantic paralleling with Ren/Nora is too much, to the point their V8 heavily romantic-coded scenes mirror each other - then at that point I know it's not wrong to expect redemption paired with romance... special built-up redemptions... and all of these redemption arcs are setting up Cinder's, because Cinder's is a big deal. Emerald and Hazel's were already built up as a major revelation in V8 that turned the tide and saved the day.

The point I'm kind of trying to make here is that there is reason to speculate on the type of structure I suggested in my previous post; it's not arbitrary, there is some sense to it, and we also see that the intensity of redemption arcs in the story have been gradually built up to suggest we're working towards something. Raven's hasn't been fully delivered upon yet and I expect that to evolve in the following volumes (maybe even so with rescuing them from Ever After, both for Persephone, also known as Korē (which literally means... maiden), vegetation goddess/Queen of the Underworld allusion reasons and also her portals that visually mirror the Yellow Brick Road ones). Here what I think is interesting that the Maidens joining the side of Good mirrors the order that they join the Old Man in the story. We've had Winter first, spring is next, summer, autumn. Ilia has also been reintroduced into the story... but I'll save my Summer Maiden speculation for another time. Nevertheless, we do have a linked idea of redemption of the Maiden linked with redemption of the power - and so it feels organic to speculate on Cinder's.

I have a tag for Cinder's redemption you can peruse to your heart's desire for further speculation and there is also my Knightfall tag, but if you have any questions or wanted a more simplistic summary I can certainly try (and you ask great questions, so I hope my responses are just as interesting)! <3

I never even imagined something like Jaune x Cinder could make so much sense.

Hahahah I love this! I never assume that someone isn't interested in Knightfall because they don't know any better - we all have different tastes - and I think it's much better to simply lay my opinions on the table and let you decide. The reaction of 'omg it actually makes sense though?' is much more fun, I admittedly do get quite a kick out of it, and on some level it does make me feel a bit less delusional seeing as it's not a pairing you see many seriously argue for. Or at all. I try to maintain a little perspective.

To be quite frank, when I started putting the pieces together of Knightfall it was with some trepidation - I am often an enemies-to-lovers, love endures type of shipper, I'm no stranger to it, but that trepidation was because of that in part, since I assumed I was just seeing what I wanted to see. This was a while ago, and if I had encountered evidence that refuted it I probably would have packed up camp, because I am almost exclusively a canonshipper.

Jesus if you explain things THAT well then maybe I really should listen to your Knightfall Manifesto…

That is very kind of you to say, I'm glad that I have communicated myself well, that is my one goal. My Knightfall manifesto is not a manifesto as such; it's a masterpost grouping all the intertextual and canonical speculation together so I can reference it. My true Knightfall manifesto is a fanfic I'm writing called The Distance Which Fools the Skimming Eye, but you can generally consider my blog here one big manifesto for Knightfall. Lol.

I think I generally don't come at the angle of trying to convince other people to ship Knightfall either because so much of it is down to taste - and I like exploring taste, I like documenting what I'm interested in - but I wouldn't position it as the 'correct' thing to ship, because that kind of thing is really frustrating as a fan lol. What I would like to seriously do is discuss the structural necessities of redemption arcs and serious consideration of their characters... and justify why romance can be fun and heart-twisty and amazing and also convey serious plot/character/theme (though it doesn't need that to justify it - of course - but Romance romance is where it's at for me). It's kind of hard for it to not do that (even if the R/WBY romances aren't all it for everyone) considering Ozlem is at the heart of it. You can read my Reverse Ozlem tag where I discuss relationship parallels with Ozlem, chief of which I think Knightfall is one (lovers to enemies -> enemies to lovers, it's like poetry it rhymes).

I think what's great about Knightfall (and Cinder and Jaune by extension) is that the thematic heart of the show is wrapped up in it, and it makes everything very clear. Certainly, it's not the Jaune and Cinder show - I talk about other relationships, romantic or otherwise, for a reason - but in part I think what makes it special is this type of essential connection, which is transcendental on an epic scale. Compassion as a superpower. I am totally down for that. The ensemble cast kind of makes it more special for me, and I think what's successful is you have instances like Ironwood's fall that is calculatedly foiling Cinder's rise - that you have tragedy in this story that hopefully, in some way, foreshadows romantic and hopeful reprise.

In a lot of other stories I would be quite upset with the handling of Adam, Hazel and Ironwood, but what makes R/WBY successful is that you do have that sense of loss - that Adam wears a mask but an inverse of Cinder's, because his is concealing evil and pain that he uses to control Blake, but she (and Yang) nevertheless try to extend mercy. Hazel sacrifices himself - and this type of death-by-redemption I'd normally hate - but it fulfills the idea of parental sacrifice for Emerald which is in part the 'true' message of Vader's death. Vader was not too evil to live and be forgiven, he was an old man who died for his son and his son's inheritance (and because he was artificially kept alive through unnatural forces). Ironwood's story could be read as punitive - foolish to believe in change, foolish to believe in redemption and turning it back - but the execution is anything but. If anything it's a model of forcing you to pay attention to what substantial change is in the story - and Ironwood really embodies the anti-fairytale, narratively cynical mentality that yes - pervades part of the fanbase that thinks you can just nuke Salem and get it all over with. That Ironwood's fall, once again, is deliberately paralleled with Cinder's (whose story is steeped in the fairytale and the mythic and will deliver on it - literally steeped in disillusionment of the failed Huntsman, the evil step-mothers - Cinder's a wounded idealist) tells me about what sort of narrative logic that will be validated.

The elephant in the room I've delicately skirted around in this post (but I do discuss a lot) is that the typical objection to Knightfall is Cinder killed Pyrrha so Jaune can never love her. You can feel uncomfortable about it, sure, but it doesn't change the nature of their confrontation at Haven (Jaune isn't acting like an aggrieved boyfriend sad about his fridged girlfriend... Pyrrha's arc is SO much more complex than that, than aborted romance) and it doesn't change the fact that Pyrrha - and the Fall Beacon - was a way to tie Jaune's character to Cinder's. Not anyone else, Jaune, and not even Ren or Nora who were Pyrrha's teammates too. Why would they do that? Why would they put Jaune in a position of narrative empathy with Cinder for having killed Penny?

I'm not trying to diminish Jaune's connection to Pyrrha - if anything I think the mischaracterisation of Pyrrha (her destiny, what she wanted, what she fought for) and her eternal glorification (that she never wanted) is what bothers me, and so too does it bother me that Jaune's character isn't taken seriously on that front because he can never grow beyond that romance or the childish (literally), childhood one-sided crush on Weiss. I want a more satisfying answer, and based on the fact they have committed to exploring Ren/Nora in an interesting way, that they committed to Blake/Yang at all, that the story is grounded in Ozlem (tragic separation! Deep enmity!) is begging for me to look at it from a new perspective.

But that sense of loss is what makes a hopeful resolution so potent. If we were supposed to be taught that there are no happy endings, that fairytales are stupid and you're stupid for believing in magic, then the answer to Salem's story - that she's eternally cursed and punished - would have been it. That would have been our ending. But that is only the revealed thesis. So what should I be expecting to fix that?

The reason I emphasise the Reverse Ozlem angle with Knightfall - working back from that, looking at the broader conflict that pitted Ozma against Salem through the Brother of Light, Salem losing sight of who she truly is, Cursed - is because you don't just a simplistic reprisal of knight freeing Maiden from her tower and falling in love, it's more complicated and more reciprocal and it sees the relationship for all its flaws and fixes it. The key with Ozlem is that if you've got literal reincarnation you should be looking for metaphorical reincarnation and repetition in the story, and eventually - eventually - that should be broken.

We're in the cycle breaker! Curses are to be broken! Maidens freed and redeemed!

Ylva and Horst from the Faron Province.

I do not wanna be known for being that chick that keeps giving Nintendo characters parents but like... it’s so fun, guys. Specially ‘cause I keep coming up with backstories while drawing. These are Twilight Princess! Link’s folks.

They’re from a town within woods of Faron Province that has a long tradition with wolves. They’re sort of their totem. There are a lot of details in this idea but this is gonna be long enough as it is so MOVING ON.

Horst was the master horse-tamer of the town. The horses his family bred were so fine that they sent them all over Hyrule, even Castle Town! He was sent away to be an apprentice to the Lanayru province, where the Royal family horses were bred and he came back having absorbed all the necessary knowledge to help his family reach the next level.

Ylva was the eldest of a family that had an apple orchard. She wasn’t acquainted with Horst until he became Master and it was him receiving the apple baskets she brought for the horses instead of his dad. Horst was smitten immediately, though Ylva was very much too absorbed in doing her job to even notice.

All of a sudden, Horst became very fond of apples and a regular costumer not just of treats for the horses but himself. Obviously, making chit-chat with Ylva as he went to the point where she was like ‘Don’t you have stuff to do?’

She didn’t realize what was going on until Horst finally out and directly asked her out. He was nice enough, so she accepted and once they were able to hang out outside from either their jobs, they hit it off and the rest is history.

It took them a while to get married, as Ylva had to take care of the family business until her little brother was old enough to do that himself, but no one ever doubted that’s where they were going. Link came along close to the one year mark of their marriage.

Horst gave Ylva a beautiful red-chestnut mare for a wedding gift.

When Link was very young (I wanna say around five, perhaps), there was a silent incursion by rebel forces through the Southern Provinces of Hyrule. Their town was attacked int he dead of night and practically burned to the ground. Hurst fell buying Ylva and Link the time to make an escape.

On their part, Ylva and Link, along with the rest of the survivors, started the long and tortuous trip through the woods in hopes of reaching a place to hide.

Eventually they were found by a group of soldiers led by Queen Sieghild (Zelda’s mother) who escorted them to a hidden spot in the middle of rocky cliffs in the Ordona Province, where all the survivors of the surrounding villages were hiding, as it was an easy spot to defend thanks to the natural barriers and not far from a Spirit’s Spring- the carnage had scared the fairies away, though, and so only the water held some mild healing powers still.

Enemy raids were constantly happening, though, and the Queen died defending the survivors. Ilness, hunger and injury took a significant number of the survivors themselves (Among them, Ilia’s mother and Fado’s entire family.) Ylva survived just long enough to see the skirmish ended and her boy safe.

A young soldier (From another of the destroyed villages, further into Ordonian territory) took Link under his wing. His name? Rusl. In time, most the survivors left for other provinces but the ones remaining founded a new Village by the name of Ordon, where Rusl, having seen enough death for a lifetime, decided to stay with Link.

Sadly, Link barely remembers his parents or his place of birth and their traditions. All he had left of them was his mother’s horse. In time, even the mare passed, but thankfully she had a filly of her own before that: Epona.

Anger 3 for (an odd one) Weiss and Ilia if your up for it

hmmm, i don’t ship weiss and ilia a whole lot to be honest, but i see why people enjoy the ship nonetheless. I’m up for the challenge lol. i kind of went a more friendship route i guess, but honestly romance could work here too if you choose to interpret it that way. i’ll try my best with it, i hope you enjoy it thank you for the prompt :)

takes place after volume 7, whenever the gang head to vacuo. I can’t remember if ilia was going there with sun and neptune at the end of volume 5, or if she’s back in menagerie my mind is fuzzy. however for the purposes of this story, ilia tagged along with those two and has been chilling in vacuo with them. team rwby is there now.

prompt: “How is this my fault?”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Ahhh, the sun feels great, doesn’t it?”

Weiss scowled at Yang’s words, crossing her arms and glancing at the girl. Blake nodded in agreement with her, while Ruby was busy talking to her uncle some ways ahead of the three of them.

“In case you hadn’t noticed,” Weiss caught their attention, her hand gesturing to her whole body, most of it exposed to the hot air due to the light blue and white sun dress she wore. “Some of us aren’t built for a sun as hot as this.”

Yang snorted and waved a hand in dismissal, before she rummaged around inside her travel bag at her feet. Weiss barely had time to react as she threw a bottle of sunscreen at her, a gasp escaping her lips in surprise.

“Here, just... You know, use a lot of it.” Yang threw her a thumbs up, and Weiss grumbled as she started to do just that- rubbing sunscreen all over her body as the trio started to walk a bit more ahead, catching up with Ruby and Qrow. As the group started to walk along one of the many beaches in Vacuo, they were approaching one of several resorts lined on the beach. Blake pointed at one, ears pricked forward in interest.

“I think this is the one Sun said to meet him at.” Blake said, and Weiss took note of the tension in Yang’s shoulders for a second. She noticed the line between her eyebrows, and Blake must have noticed too, because while she didn’t say anything, she linked their arms together and continued walking. Weiss rolled her eyes and sighed, levelling her eyes with the resort that was getting closer.

“Neptune’s going to be there.” Blake commented offhandedly, and Weiss felt her eyes move to the side of her face. Weiss felt her pink cheeks heat up, but not for the reasons that Blake was probably thinking. No, she had come to terms with the fact that Neptune was never someone she liked romantically- it was just infatuation with him, someone she thought maybe could like her for who she was. But no, she realised not long after that that wasn’t the case. Rather, her cheeks turned pink due to the fact that last time she had ever properly talked to him was when she was throwing herself at him like a child. So, yeah, pretty awkward.

“Is Ilia going to be there too?” Yang said this, and her tone didn’t sound particularly happy about that either. Blake raised an eyebrow at her tone, and Weiss looked at the pair, eyebrow also raised. She had heard a little bit about Ilia from Blake- how her parents had died in that mine back in Atlas, which was a result of her father. She remembered meeting her briefly back before they left on the Argus, and she was pleasant enough. Though, she didn’t talk much with her, and people can change a lot when they have time away for themselves.

She had also learned, since she was in the same room as her and Yang when they were discussing this topic, that Ilia had been in love with Blake for a very long time.

No wonder Yang was on edge a little bit. Weiss knew from way over here how much Blake and Yang cared for each other and, well, she couldn’t blame Yang for being wary when two of Blake’s previous potential suitors were about to come into contact with her again after so long.

“Look alive, kiddos. We’re here.” Qrow interrupted her thought process and brought her attention to the resort in front of them. It loomed above them, stretching just as wide, and looked stunning from the outside. Weiss couldn’t wait to see the inside, and she also couldn’t wait to flop into her bed and nap. It had been a long airship and boat ride to get here, after all.

“Blakey!” A loud, excited voice floated through the double doors of the resort, and soon after a certain blonde haired monkey flew through it as well, almost tackling Blake into a hug. “You’re here!”

“Sun.” Blake laughed and hugged him back, and Weiss contained the unattractive snort that wanted to fall from her lips at the distaste on Yang’s face. Sun pulled away and said hello to everyone else, gesturing towards the resort.

“I’m workin’ here now!” Sun said, hands on his hips in pride. “Team SSSN is on hold right now, but if you ever need anything, let me know. My team and I are with you.” Sun said with a nod, and before anyone could say anything, Neptune also came outside from the resort.

“Dude, you can’t just up and leave your post whenever you want.” Neptune lectured, but it was in a joking manner. Sun let out a “pfft” before jumping back towards Neptune, throwing an arm around his shoulder.

“Dude, look who’s here!” Sun waved his hand towards everyone. “You know I had to welcome them with this beautiful face and never ending charm.” He sent finger guns towards his friend, to which Neptune just sighed and rolled his eyes.

His eyes caught Weiss’, and that blush from earlier came back as he waved at her. She waved back timidly, praying in her mind that he wouldn’t talk to her specifically. Neptune was nice, but she really would rather not dwell on the past, and how childish she was back then. It was best to move on from all that, and it seemed to her that Neptune thought the same, when his eyes strayed and he started a conversation with Qrow, who looked less than enthused.

“Do I need to do everything around here?”

Blake’s ears perked up at this voice, and Weiss also was intrigued. It was female, and it was pretty sharp with the words that were said, but also had an air of lightheartedness to it.

Weiss watched as Ilia emerged from inside the resort, playful smirk on her lips. She wore a black tank top with some shorts and black shoes, and her ponytail was as long as ever flowing down her back. Weiss pursed her lips as Blake smiled at her friend, the two of them throwing their arms around each other.

“Ilia.” Blake said, and Ilia pulled back from her, bright smile on her face and a light pink tone to the spots on her face.

“It’s great to see you, and to see your team again.” Ilia said, looking at Ruby, Yang, and then Weiss herself. Weiss wasn’t sure, but it seemed like her gaze lingered on her a fraction longer than the others, but before she could investigate that thought, Ilia was looking at Blake again.

“I know you’re here on official Team RWBY business.” Ilia joked. “But, it’d be nice to catch up, you know? Spend some time here and relax.” Ilia glanced at Weiss once more, which confused Weiss a little, but then Ilia was backing up towards the resort, beckoning everyone inside. “Come on, us three can show you to your rooms.”

With that, the group followed Ilia, Sun and Neptune inside the resort. Neptune was still chatting Qrow’s ear off, the poor man, and Sun was on Blake’s right side, walking with her and catching up with her. Yang was on her left, and seemed to be trying her very best to ignore it.

“Need help with your bag?” Ilia’s voice cut into Weiss’ thoughts, and she jumped a little, whipping her head around to look at her. Ilia’s spots were a light pink again, and she pointed down to Weiss’ luggage that was wheeling behind her, a small, welcoming smile on her face. Weiss blinked, glancing at everyone else as they walked past them, paying attention to their own things.

Weiss cleared her throat and took a breath, lightly smiling back.

“Um, no thanks, no need to worry about that.” Weiss said. Ilia’s spots darkened a tiny bit, and she scratched the back of her head before shrugging her shoulders, stepping a bit closer.

“It’s no trouble, really.” Ilia said in a small voice, and Weiss watched as she grabbed the handle of Weiss’ luggage, glancing up to look into her eyes. Weiss blinked in response, slight confusion on her face.

“Ilia, you really don’t have to-”

“Look.” Ilia cut her off, and Weiss was surprised at the look of determination in her eyes. “It’s... Hard for me to differentiate you and your father sometimes.” Ilia said softly, glancing ahead of them to the others to see them waiting for the elevator, talking amongst themselves. Weiss felt a pang in her heart at her words. “Because you... He, was the cause of it. At the dust mine.”

“I-”

“And it sucks. It sucks that when I look at you, I’m seeing him. Because I know Blake would never associate with someone so terrible, and I know in my heart you aren’t.” Ilia cut her off again, determined to finish what her thought was. Weiss clenched her jaw, itching to say something to defend herself a little, to explain how she really felt about her father.

“I bet you’re thinking right now, ‘Why is she doing this right now? How is this my fault?’“ Ilia said, taking on a harder tone as she said it. Ilia paused after that, taking a deep breath, Weiss remaining silent as her eyes met hers. She could see a light red hue to her spots, and Weiss felt that that meant there was some anger there. But it started to fade when Ilia looked into her eyes again, and Ilia let out another breath, slow and steady.

“It isn’t your fault.” Ilia finally said, to Weiss’ surprise. “The old me would never have come to that conclusion, but Blake helped me all that time ago- she helped me realise a lot of things.” Ilia said, her gaze wandering to look at the back of Blake’s head. Weiss followed her gaze and sighed lightly.

“But the person I am now, isn’t who I was back then.” Ilia mused, and Weiss flinched when she felt her fingers brush hers. It was an odd feeling, considering they were barely friends, but for some reason, Weiss didn’t hate it. Weiss glanced down at their hands, before meeting Ilia’s eyes. “And I’m willing to bet the same for you too, Weiss. I... Hope we can be friends. If Blake trusts you, then I’m willing to trust you too.”

Ilia fell silent after she was finished, and Weiss looked between her eyes for a minute. Her spots were a regular colour now, so Weiss had no indication of her inner feelings in that moment.

“I’m not my father.” Weiss finally said, and Ilia’s lip quirked up in a hint of a smile. “But I apologise on his behalf. I’m sorry for... All the awful things my family has done. I want to do whatever I can to... Make up for it.” Weiss’ voice turned soft, and Ilia’s smile grew a bit at her words, the girl nodding once at her.

“I feel like you've already started to. I heard from Blake in a letter about how you straight up arrested him!” Ilia said, a light laugh escaping her lips. Weiss couldn’t help but crack a grin at the nice sound, sighing and rolling her eyes jovially.

“It was my proudest moment.” Weiss replied, and Ilia laughed once more before she gripped Weiss’ luggage handle tighter this time, wheeling it behind her as she walked ahead of Weiss. Weiss followed after her, Ilia turning her head just slightly to look over her shoulder.

“I feel like we’ll get along well, Weiss Schnee.” Ilia said, and Weiss breathed out a laugh, continuing to follow Ilia towards the elevator with the rest of the group.

Weiss was complicit of so many things her family had done, and there was a time that she didn’t care much about others. But she had changed since then, and she knew now that she couldn’t stand by and let things happen for her anymore. Jacques Schnee remained behind bars, and Weiss was with her friends in Vacuo.

And it seems that maybe she’ll make one more friend here after all.

Note

When people were saying Fiona saw Tyrian because she's a Faunus and are confused when she didn't. I think their forgetting that not all Faunus have night vision. Sun literally said in Volume 5 they were going to try to recruit faunus in the nocturnal section implying that that only specific Faunus can see in the dark or that it's a randomized process like ilia being a chameleon Faunus but still being able to see in the dark despite chameleons not being nocturnal.

OMG, I forgot all about the nocturnal section. But yeah, that VERY MUCH adds tot he point of not all Faunus being abe to see int he dark. Blake can and I assume that Tyrian and Ilia can (or were just trained to do fight int he dark, which is plausible for Ilia). But yeah in V1, they said ‘many Faunus’ not ‘all Faunus’. IDK how Faunus genetics determines that, like if you can due to your animal trait being able to or if it’s just randomized. Like maybe two Faunus parents can have a child who can see in the dark, but a child with only one Faunus parents can’t. But yeah, it’s likely that Fiona can’t or considering it all happened so fast, she didn’t even get time to adjust/process it. When there’s that much chaos and panic going on, you’d be surprised how much your perception can be twisted.

Skin First: Canada-based makeup lover and mum @alwaysplayingwithmakeup

This week’s guest is Quebec City, Canada-based Sarah-Jane Roger-Gobell better known as @alwaysplayingwithmakeup on Instagram. She’s a busy mum, a visual merchandiser, and as her insta handle says, she is literally always playing with makeup. So I thought would be the perfect person for the second Skin First episode.

Sarah-Jane has this otherworldly glow about her, and that’s despite her saying she has a dry skin type. In this episode I wanted to find out how she gets that glow, whether she thinks it’s a case of skin first, products second, and why being creative with makeup helped her get out of a funk after giving birth to her son Noah.

Products mentioned:

Well, I am fucking angry

Making your first “real” LGBT character a fucking predatory antagonist is so fucking backwards that it is close to 60s-70′s level of backwards. I am not going to go over why it is disgustingly awful monkey-paw kind of execution that turns possible representation into a weapon of homophobia and why it is the OPPOSITE of representation and is in fact deeply harmful to actual LGBT community and the expectations it shapes. Plenty of articles are written on that matter.

I mean I called Ilia being queer the VERY FIRST MOMENT she appeared. Back then I still held out hope that maybe they won’t just go for the go-for-it homophobic trope of her being full on antagonist, but this show has given me no reason to believe writers can write that without avoiding falling into that. And indeed so far the show seems to be hellbent to check all the checkboxes int he Predatory Lesbian stereotype - an infatuated lesbian who is rejected and rages against her crush going a dark path...

There’s the fact that the first LGBT character in show is a “evil predatory rejected ex” also does not help matters. If there was a precedent of LGBT characters beforehand I would have more hope but there is not. RWBY is littered with either vague subtext or negative connotations about queerness

Let’s recap shall we? The cases of RWBY even remotelly brushing up on queer representation. What do we have?

Entire school laughing at “Jaune in a Dress” which in essence is rooted in dismissing the idea of genderqueer people possibly existing.

The comedy of Scarlett being “girly” and getting coconuts thrown at his balls.

The “funnies” of Qrow in a dress, which is lowkey transphobic(I say lowkey because the overton window for what’s “allowed” is so fucking low, laughing at things like that almost seems bening in comparison to far more awful shit people do)

A cardboard cutout of two characters in scenery.

An evil predatory rejected lesbian ex obsessed with the object of her affections.

That’s....not exactly a good precedent right?

What’s more, since there’s now the token “queer” character in the show, we most likely won’t get anything else.

And Oh Gee I can’t wait for Ilia to eventually “redeem herself” by taking a hit for Blake and dying in her arms, because there’s nothing that screams HOMOPHOBIA like replacing your Depraved Lesbian trope with Bury Your Gays and because that’s exactly what keeps happening in the stereotypical cases like this.

Do I hope for them to not go down this path? I Am, surely. Just as I am still hoping that they will eventually call out Sun on being a creepy stalker or fix their shitty portrayal of minority rights groups being basically evil one-note terrorists. Just because you hope for something does not mean it will happen.

Fuck this bullshit.

We deserved better.

Tiggy’s Character Masterpost

New Year is better than any to redo and edit your character masterpost! :D ONE DAY I will make a proper chracter page but for now, just a post. Under the cut so y’all don’t have to scroll for 3 miles.

Neala Flynn

Profession: Berserker Age: 22 Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: Married Relations: Brennan (husband), Leila (best friend), Bruce (best friend), Ryan (good friend), Cedrick (best friend), Duncan (friend, although she views him as an annoying younger brother), Likes: strawberries, honey mead, dogs. Dislikes: unnecessary cruelty/violence, heights, White Mantle Occupation: Vigil Warmaster

Neala was abandoned as a child, in middle of Genderran Fields, where she was found by a traveling, recently married norn couple. Not being able to have kids of their own, they took her in, and raised her as their own, referring to her as 'short norn’ and getting insulted should someone mention she is actually a human. Neala knows no other life and she is quiet comfortable with how things are. Her love for swordplay was encouraged, and as she grew older she trained as a warrior, becoming very proficient with a great sword. Despite her upbringings, Neala is a quiet girl, who despite swinging a sword, enjoys flowers and dresses, when she is able to. Girl of right morals, Neala will not hesitate to tell anyone they are wrong and is helpful when she can.

Brennan Flynn

Profession: Daredevil Age: 24 Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: Married Relations: Cedrick (friend), Aislinn (hates), Neala (wife), Ryan (best friend) Likes: Bats, apples, reading badly written fiction Dislikes: cold weather, mesmers, not being paid Occupation: Mercenary/Vigil Crusader

Brennan was picked up by a group of bandits, after his village got raided by centaurs, which killed his sister, who was his only relative left. Raised by the said bandits, Brennan grew up mostly on streets of Lion’s Arch, pickpocketing and doing odd jobs for his gang. He is fun-loving, carefree most days, and a loyal and caring friend if you actually care to befriend him, and only thing he loves more than his wife is his cat, Soot. Is not above killing, as long as he gets paid, but most days his jobs consist of stealing a thing from a rival, escorting caravans or guarding door to an asuran lab or something of the sort. While being over his sister’s death, he still has her favorite locket, out of sentimental value, which is his most prized possession, and his gang learned not to touch it, after he broke noses of few of the bandits (they still speak nazaly to this day)

Ryan Cathaire

Profession: Tempest Age: 24 Sexuality: Gay Relationship Status: In Relationship Relations: Brennan (best friend), Neala (friend), Cedrick (acquaintance), Bruce (boyfriend) Likes: coffee, cookies, studying Dislikes: Seraph, White Mantle, spiders Occupation: Whispers Recruit

Ryan is a commoner and grew up in a village constantly pestered by bandits that'd take all their supplies and shit, leaving bare minimum. Ryan tried to stand up to them as a kid but they just pushed him out of the way. His dad later on, years later when Ryan was 14, stood up as well, but they broke his arm, and he could barely work next time they came they took everything. After going to Seraph, who did nothing, bandits returned and kidnapped a girl. Ryan went in alone and rescued her, when Seraph again refused as they had bigger problems. When they finally arrived and arrested the bandits, they simply told him ‘to let them to their job’. With village safe from the bandits, Ryan left, to find a job to help out his parents and get better elementalist training (as until then he was mostly self taught) Ironically, joined same bandit gang as Brennan, being assigned mostly bodyguard jobs. Recently joined Order of Whispers and is currently a recruit. Despite all the hardships, Ryan is incredibly sweet person, who still has a positive out look on life, believing world can become a better place with time.

Bruce Corrigan

Profession: Engineer/Scrapper Age: 27 Sexuality: Gay Relationship Status: In relationship Relations: Cedrick (cousin), Aislinn (Cousin), Aidan (nephew), Ryan (boyfriend) Likes: tinkering, tea, potion brewing Dislikes: his eyes, writing reports, inventory sorting Occupation: Whispers Creator

Cedrick’s and Aislinn’s maternal cousin, Bruce was always the more mature of the three growing up. He gets along with Aislinn better than he does with Cedrick, believing latter’s can be very irresponsible (Cedrick in turn, thinks Bruce has a stick up his ass and is stubborn), however he cares deeply for both of them. Oldest of four kids, Bruce’s mother puts a lot of responsibilities and duties on his shoulders, when all he wants is to do things his way. Studied to be a pharmacist originally, ended up working Creator int he Order of Whispers, and occasionally teaches recruits about the gadgets and their use. Bruce tends to be incredibly stubborn, preferring to dance around his problems rather than solving them or moving past them.

Aislinn ‘Mindreaver’ Adare

Profession: Chronomancer Age: 21 Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: Single Relations: Cedrick (Brother), Bruce (cousin), Brennan (dislikes), Aidan (Nephew) Likes: Fashion, anything pink and girly, doodling Dislikes: Gossip, snobby people, heavy rain Occupation: Mesmer Teacher in an Elemetary School

Cedrick’s younger sister, Aislinn is a mesmer, excelling with mind magic. Loves pink, girly things, her cat Zuzu and Cedrick’s cooking. She is very bold and blunt, which caused her to get in trouble few times, after which she promptly hid behind brother’s back. With age, Aislinn became more collected and independent and keeps to herself a lot. She is currently teaching a small class of children in a school in Lion’s Arch, basic mesmering. She treats her small class as if they were her own children, and they love her back dearly.

Cedrick Adare

Profession: Druid Age: 25 Sexuality: Straight Relationship Status: Married Relations: Brennan (friend), Aislinn (sister), Bruce (cousin), Neala (friend), Violetta (wife), Aidan (son) Likes: Omnomberry Bars, sleeveless attire, traveling Dislikes: Orr, writing reports, alcohol Occupation: Vigil Tactician and Scout

Eldest child of Shining Blades, who lost everything in a house fire, forcing them to start a new in Divinity’s Reach. Did some shady side jobs, for extra cash, to try and help out the best he can, keeping in touch with some of his contacts to this day. Lived in Shiverpeaks for 3 years, learning about being a ranger, on he way there got mauled by a corrupted bear, defeating it with last burst of adrenaline, however it earned a distrust of bears since. Laid back, upbeat and occasionally snarky, Cedrick is good at what he does, favoring great sword and longbow. Has a pet wolf named Blaidd, and is currently a Tactician, and still occasionally a Scout in the Vigil. Enjoys baking and eating omnomberry bars and can’t hold his liquor well. He’s married and has a two year old son named Aidan.

Leila Bailey

Profession: Scrapper Age: 20 Sexuality: Straight Relationship Status: In a relationship Relations: Duncan (friend), Noineen (mentor/friend), Mike (boyfriend), Neala (best friend), Bill (friend) Likes: apples, flowers, crafting Dislikes: Mordrem, negativity, devourers. Occupation: Durmand Priory Tech Archivist

Leila an engineer, who enjoys tinkering and making gadgets out of all kinds of scrap. She is incredibly kind, but unfortunately incredibly naive as well, and tends to be completely oblivious to when people take huge advantage of her kindness. After her dad passed away she was taken in by an asura engineer as a apprentice, when in reality she was more of a slave who ran his errands. Said asura performed for noble parties as an entertainer with holograms, and Leila helped set them up. She eventually manages to get out of her ‘mentor’s’ grasp, and is recruited into Priory sometime during events of Maguuma where she quickly climbed in ranks to Tech Archivist, being in charge of any data and technology Priory comes by.

Mike McFaelan

Profession: Firebrand Age: 25 Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: In a relationship Relations: Leila (girlfriend), Bill (brother), Neala (acquaintance), Ryan (friend) Likes: books, whiskey, alone time Dislikes: Mordrem, deserts, parties Occupation: Vigil Warmaster

Mike and his brother were raised by their dad when their mother passed away when Mike was 2. When their father died in his teens, his father’s business went to his brother, which was fine in Mike’s book as he was never the merchant type. This however caused a rift between him and Bill, as Bill tried to step up, and Mike wanted a brother not a father, making not as close as they used to be. Mike is generally a lone wolf, preferring to be by himself a lot, and is rather quite guy. He’s can be very no nonsense, enjoys reading by a fire place when possible, and make Tyria safe place one bit at a time. Currently resides back in DR in his mansion, with his brother and Leila.

Ilia Calhoun

Profession: Scourge Age: 26 Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: Single Relations: Neala (best friend), Leila (best friend), Duncan (apprentice), Bruce (childhood friend) Likes: tea parties, spiders, sewing Dislikes: Rudeness, rain, gossip Occupation: Seamstress

Ilia is a middle child of a respectable tailor family in DR. Her mother is one of Lady Corrigan’s personal seamstresses/fashion adviser. Her younger sister is friend’s with Bruce’s younger twin sisters. She herself grew up with Bruce, both consider each other a good friend, ironically bonding on the fact that neither is close with their parent. She herself is a talented seamstress, and despite of what her family insists enjoys making all kinds of dresses for poor and rich.To horror of her parents, takes commissions from common folk for mere pennies as she believes everyone should dress nice. Genuinely enjoys sewing and sometimes even gives does it for free, if her client can’t afford it. Despite looking mysterious and broody, Ilia is a very kind girl, who loves spiders and cats, and just wants to befriend everyone. Voted most likely to knit you a sweater to make sure you stay warm and cozy.

Duncan Kealan

Profession: Reaper Age: 21 Sexuality: Pansexual Relationship Status: In relationship Relations: Ingvara (Step-mom), Kythre (step-sister), Neala (friend), Leila (friend),Elaine (mother), Eileen (girlfriend), Ilia (mentor) Likes: Books, tea, apples Dislikes: Too much snow, ships, talking about his family Occupation: Priory Scholar

Raised by superstitious pirate parents, who while believe in The Six, simply viewed Grenth as the god of the underworld, viewing necromancy as horrendous antics. A devout followe of Grenth, Duncan is a self-taught necromancer, learning from books, at night when everyone was asleep. What he lacks in practice, he compensates in knowledge. Was found fending of jotun, by a former necromancer, Ingvara, who after persisting, reluctantly took him in as an apprentice, to ‘pass her old craft onto someone’, sending him to various friends, if she didn’t know something herself, eventually dumping Duncan at the Priory. Proficient in curses and blood magic, Duncan’s distinguishing feature in constantly re-bandaged left hand, which never heals. One of his, perhaps unhealthy, hobbies, is making and utilizing poisons, which he carries in small pouch on his belt.

Ingvara Mistspeaker

Profession: Revenant Age: 46 Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: Married Relations: Kythre (daughter), Duncan (step-son), Elaine (wife) Likes: Ale, living life to the fullest, story-telling Dislikes: dwelling on past, cooking, deserts Occupation: Traveler

Formerly a necromancer, Ingvara has a troubled past, one she does not talk about herself often, but it did however make a legend of its own, about how she chased an assassin that killed her sister and her lover, so she doesn’t really need to. (She does however, claim it is a bit exaggerated) Some time after completing her quest, got pregnant on accident, giving birth to her daughter, Kythre. Her fear of getting attached, made her want to leave on few occasions, feeling she’d be a bad mother to her, but she always came back, realizing she’d be a bad mother if she actually left. Kythre became a bright spot in her life, helping her regain a lot of her confidence and old spirit back. She left, this time permanently, when Kythre was 16, looking for new legends to build, briefly teaching Duncan some necromancy, before leaving him at the Priory for better knowledge. Recently returned, now as a revenant, Ingvara’s currently traveling and lendning a helping hand to those in need. Drunk married her friend, but they eventually decided to keep the marriage, after realizing they care for one another.

Kythre Ingvarasdottir

Profession: Dragonhunter Age: 22 Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: In relationship Relations: Ingvara (mother), Duncan (step-brother), Elaine (step-mother), Ira (girlfriend) Likes: drawing, reading, swimming Dislikes: unnecessary violence, arguing, insults Occupation: Traveler

While a rowdy spirit in her youth, Kythre drew up to be very calm and collected, preferring to solve arguments with words over fists. She is very helpful and sweet girl, but don’t piss her off, because she can be a force to be reckoned with. While originally wanting to continue her mother’s legend, decided to make her own in the end, although she has not yet decided on what it is. Kythre enjoys drawing and reading in her free time, as well as hanging out with her step-brother, and helping him find rare tomes in obscure dungeons, to horror of their mothers.

Skaald Freyda

Profession: Mesmer Age: 19 Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: Single Relations: N/A Likes: writing stories, traveling, steaks Dislikes: being belittled, overly socializing, swamps Occupation: Travelling Story Teller

Freyda was born to two warriors, but she never lived up to their example. She was always a quiet, small, soft spoken and a day dreaming girl, who would rather write poetry than play violent games with other children. She was never much of a fighter and felt incredibly upset, when she couldn’t make legends same way her parents did, by bashing head and taking names. Per her mother’s suggestion, she became a Skaald, due to her love for writing, and decided to write a big book of legends as her own legend. She is currently traveling Tyria, collecting stories and putting on shows with her mesmer magic to go along with her story telling.

+++ Rundbrief 108: Widerstand in Fußballstadien +++

Liebe Demokratinnen und Demokraten!

Ach ja, diese Briefe: Am besten sind Sie schon auf dem Weg zu Ihrer lokalen Demo und lesen diesen Rundbrief auf dem Weg als Anregung, bestenfalls Bereicherung.

Die Regierung mauert sich weiter in ihre Diktatur ein, hat das Bundeswahlgesetz geändert, mit dem verhindert wird, dass regimekritische Kandidaten auf die Listen der Allparteienkoalition aus Union, SPD, Grünen, Partei Die Linke und FDP kommen können — bzw. überhaupt irgendjemand, der das neofaschistische Regime in Frage stellt. Einen anderen Zweck erfüllt das neue Bundeswahlgesetz nicht.

Seit Freitag wissen auch alle Linken in aller Welt, dass die Corona-Diktatur sie nur billig benutzt hat: Der »rot-rot-grüne« Senat ließ nach dem Seniorentreff Syndikat und den Waldfreunden von Dannenröder Forst am gestrigen abend die Liebigstraße in Berlin unter Aufgebot von 5.000 zur Prügelbande herabgewürdigten Polizisten gewaltsam die 42 Hausbewohnerinnen räumen: jahrzehntelange Wohnprojekte — von denen man so wenig halten kann, wie man will: es schlafen jedenfalls Menschen darinnen, die ihre je eigene Geschichte haben — und nun im angeblichen »Hotspot« zur kalten Jahreszeit auf der Straße stehen. Das trägt nicht zur Befriedung von irgendjemandem bei, andere Lösungen hätte es geben können.

Das Regime, das seinerseits im rechtsfreien Raum agiert, will nichts als ein Exempel statuieren. Es ergießt sich täglich ein Hass gegen das menschliche Leben auf der Erde insgesamt auf uns alle, auf Kinder, Schüler, Frauen, Männer und Alte aller Zugehörigkeiten, aller Couleurs.

Eine große Versammlung von Frauen im Kiez gegen die teure Regierungsaktion ist nicht in unseren Propagandamedien gezeigt werden, sondern sattdessen irgendeine Computer-Dame in Minsk mit schickem Brillenmodell, die ins Schema des niedergehenden Imperiums passt — die in Minsk aber mal wieder fast niemand kennen wird.

Während unsere Propagandamedien zum Schein inzwischen Sendungen lancieren mit Titeln wie »Ihre Meinung«, in denen Bürger sich mal ausheulen oder auskotzen dürfen, marschiert das, pardon, aber so ist es, Schweineregime also einfach weiter in Richtung totalitärer Oligarchen-Ochlokratie mit Maskenzwang zur Angsterzeugung und Social Distancing, um uns, die Menschen, auseinanderzutreiben.

Ein Anhaltspunkt dafür, dass die Propagandamedien im Verbund mit Regierung und Konzernen auch nur irgendetwas Gutes für irgendwen vorsehen würden, für irgendeine Gruppe, die nicht sie selber ist, zeigt sich nirgends, an keiner Stelle. Es ist nichts als die plumpe, hässliche Diktatur, ein Abrutschen in die Zerstörung des letzten Restes an Vertrauen, Zerstörung des Rechtsstaates und der Gewaltenteilung, in Totalitarismus und Gewaltherrschaft.

Artikel 20 Absatz 4 ist in Kraft getreten und bleibt es, bis wir diesen Wahnsinn abgeschüttelt haben und zurückgekehrt sein werden.

Die neue Ausgabe des Widerstandes wird heute und morgen, zusätzlich zur üblichen Print-Auflage, an großen und kleinen Fußballstadien verteilt, vom matschigen Platz mit roter Erde bis zur feingepflegten Profiarena. Wir grüßen übrigens auch alle sympathischen Hooligans, die ein Herz haben und mit Menschenwürde etwas anfangen können. Das E-Paper der verbreitungsstärksten Wochenzeitung Europas —> hier.*

Jau. Es ist eine ungeheure Arbeit, diese Zeitung jede Woche zu ermöglichen und durchzuführen — eine gewisse Erschöpfung können wir nicht leugnen.

Warum weitermachen? Nun, die Zeitung erreicht durch Verteilung und persönliche Übergabe Woche für Woche weitere und neue Menschen, die ansonsten nur der TV-, Radio- und Printpropaganda ausgesetzt wären oder, bei oberflächlicher Benutzung, im einstmals freien Internet — das in den letzten zehn Jahren weitgehend zum Schnippsel-Fernsehen mit sinnlosem Chat-Raum verkommen ist — auch nur die totalitäre Linie zu Gesicht bekommen.

Hinzu kommen auch weitere gute Gründe: Eine solch auflagenstarke Wochenzeitung wirft kein Journalist, der was von sich hält, einfach so weg. Die Zeitung Demokratischer Widerstand hat eine Integrität und einen Auftrag, die jeden einzelnen Mitarbeiter überragt.

Gleichwohl ist sie eine Autorenzeitung und wir legen Wert darauf, dass trotz der einen oder anderen Kinderkrankheit (im Korrektorat übersehene Flüchtigkeitsfehler, leider zuviele; Layoutproblemchen) hier seit einem halben Jahr ein professionelles, journalistisches Produkt angefertigt wird von Buchautorinnen und Journalisten, die alles in allem genau wissen, was sie tun — und das derzeit ja sehr erfolgreich. Wir haben nach wie vor Verbreitungszahlen, von denen die gleichgeschaltete Regimepresse von freitag bis FAS nur träumen kann, obwohl uns ein Konto nach dem anderen stillgelegt wird.

Wir werden immer einen Weg finden! Wir sehen uns morgen, 12 Uhr beim Schweigemarsch in Berlin ab Konrad-Adenauer-Platz, nachmittags auf dem Alexanderplatz und später dann am Stadion — und überall in UNSERER Republik.

Es ergibt Sinn, die Hygienespaziergänge überall im ganzen Land wiederaufleben zu lassen zu zentralen Plätzen, in jeder Kleinstadt, einfach überall und immer und langfristig. Jeden Samstag ab 14 Uhr.

Wir werden siegen. Kein Regime dieser Art wird sich lange halten können, wenn wir es einfach nicht wollen. Die sind in der Krise, die waren für die Schlamassel der Vergangenheit verantwortlich und sind es auch jetzt, für ihren finalen Niedergang, den sie mit diesem Wahnsinn zu überlagern trachten, den sie uns allen aufbürden. Mit uns hat das im Grunde nichts zutun, es ist gegen uns alle gerichtet.

Mit herzlichen Grüßen,

+++ Newsletter 106: (1.) Erfolg trotz Niederlage im Sommer der Demokratie, (2.) Konto-Odyssee, (3.) 31.12.2020 in Berlin +++

Liebe Demokratinnen und Demokraten!

(1.) Die erfolgreiche Menschenkennte am Bodensee, die erfolgreiche Verfassungsgebende Versammlung, die seit Monaten auflagenstärkste Wochenzeitung der Republik, die großen Augustdemonstrationen (die die größten politischen Versammlungen der europäischen Geschichte sind), der Zuspruch von einer zweistellen Millionenzahl von Menschen in unserem Land, die aktive Teilnahme und der Zuspruch von tausenden Wissenschaftlern, Ärzten, Juristinnen, dann Spenden sogar von Herz- und Virenkliniken, die mit uns gut verbundenen Demonstrationen in Paris, Marseille, London, Mumbai, Bamako, Montréal, Tel Aviv, Melbourne und so weiter und so fort...

... was sollte das alles anderes sein, als ein riesiger Erfolg? Wir zusammen sind die größte Demokratiebewegung aller Zeiten.

Demgegenüber: Wer demonstriert für die verfassungsbrüchige Regierung oder für die verfassungswidrigen Corona-Maßnahmen? — außer der neofaschistischen Fake-Antifa und der bezahlten Propagandapresse.

Welche Abgeordnete bringt überhaupt noch mehr als fünfeinhalb Büromitarbeiter auf die Straße? Welche Partei nur 50 Parteizentralenmitarbeiter?

Nicht einmal deren eigenen bezahlten Leute hängen denen noch an.

Wir haben also LÄNGST die Initiative übernommen. Wir sind aktiver, wir sind weitaus mehr, wir sind intelligenter, wir sind realer. Wir sind tatsächlich aus Mittelstand und Arbeiterschaft, wir sind also jene, ohne die hier überhaupt nichts geht. Wenn man die Zahlen und Fakten einander gegenüberstellt, müssten wir längst gewonnen haben und unsere von Beginn an klaren, einfachen und umsetzbaren Forderungen durchgesetzt haben. Doch — so ehrlich müssen wir miteinander sein — das haben wir nicht. Der Sommer der Demokratie ist vorüber. Willkommen in Deutschland im Herbst.

Denn uns gegenüber steht die Gewalt der Willkür. Wir leben in einer Diktatur. Und leider ist es eine, die es offensichtlich nicht gut mit dem Gros der Menschen meint.

Denn selbst jene, die hofften, dass der mit dem Corona-Interegnum etwas Gutes verbunden wäre — etwa echte Lösung von Ressourcen- und Umweltproblemen auf unserem Planeten Erde — wurde leider eines Besseren belehrt.

Es geht ausschließlich um einen totalitären Machtausbau. Wer hätte etwas dagegen gehabt, wenn sich Regierungen des Westens, Vatikan und Werauchimmer zusammen hingestellt hätten, um zu sagen: »Jeder weiß es, der Laden läuft nicht mehr. Uns kracht der Finanzmarkt zusammen, wir haben Klima- und Migrationskrisen, die Jugend (die mittlerweile mangels Perspektiven bis ins 50ste Lebensjahr reicht) ist zutiefst verwirrt und kommt nicht mehr auf einen grünen Zweig. Wir müssen etwas ändern!«

Nun, es hätten eine Menge Leute ihre Zweifel angebracht, aber viele doch auch positiv reagiert und auf demokratischem Wege Vorschläge eingebracht. Es wäre ein gangbarer, ja, wünschenswerter Weg gewesen. Leider will man uns — es bleibt kein anderer Schluss übrig — final in die Diktatur führen und möglicherweise in noch Schlimmeres. Der »Scholzomat« (Olaf Scholz, Finanzminister, SPD) hat im Bericht aus Berlin am Sonntag jedefalls bereits durchklingen lassen, dass der Wahlkampf im Sommer/Herbst 2021 (!) unter Ausschluss echter Öffentlichkeit stattfinden soll (»Begegnungen«).

(2.) Wir müssen leider eine Strategiedebatte in der deutschen Demokratiebewegung führen. Wir für unseren Teil, werden versuchen, diese in unserer Zeitung mit abzubilden und anzuregen.

Dazu kommt der DW N°22 zum kommenden Samstag mit einem Fußballspezial mit Thomas Berthold in 12 Seiten. Dazu Berichte vom Wochenende und von den Aktionen in den Propagandahäusern. Dann der Beginn der Strategiedebatte. Und dazu kommt ein ein Mittelstands-Extra.

Immerhin funktioniert unser neues Auslandskonto in Euro-Währung. Nachdem die Sportler Alexandra Wester, Joshiko Saibou (die sich beide oppositionell geäußert hatten) und unsere Zeitung ZEITGLEICH am vergangenen Montag von der Online-Trash-Bank N26 die Kontokündigung ohne Angaben von weiteren Gründen zugestellt bekamen, jeweils schon zum 12. Oktober.

Nach der Berliner Sparkasse, der GLS (!), der Postbank ist es nun vierte Bank, die uns ein Konto dichtmacht oder verweigert. Und falls immer noch jemand daran zweifelt: Das hat ausschließlich politische Gründe — oder welche Bank schickt die Umsätze einer solch auflagenstarken Zeitung und deren Fördervereines in die Wüste?

Das neue Konto findet sich hier. Wir hoffen aufs Beste und arbeiten schon an weiteren Ausweichöglichkeiten.

Was leider immer auch leicht unter den Tisch fällt, ist, dass jede Kontoschließung uns Spenden kostet, mit denen wir viele weitere Zeitungen drucken könnten, Demos anmelden, Helfern Stundenlöhne zahlen und die Strukturen ausbauen. Denn viele bekommen ältere Ausgaben in die Hände und überweisen dann ins Leere (die Überweisungen kommen immerhin zurück).

Aber um solche Begriffe wie Legalität, Rechtssicherheit, um geschäftsschädigendes Verghalten und so weiter und so fort schert sich die Willkürherrschaft nicht mehr. Der legalistische Ansatz ist gescheitert. Leider. Wir müssen nun damit umgehen, die Wirklichkeit der Diktatur als das anzunehmen, was sie ist, um sie effektiv bekämpfen zu können und in demokratische Zustände zurückzukehren.

(3.) Querdenken und nichtohneuns.de laden schon heute recht herzlich zum 31.12.2020 nach Berlin ein, siehe die Ballweg-Rede im zuge der Verfassungsgebenden Versammlung —> hier.

In diesem Sinne grüßt Sie und Euch alle herzlich und achtungsvoll,

+++ Aktuell: Laut Meldungen der WhatsApp-Gruppe »dpdb« beginnt in diesem Moment die Operation Waldmichel. Ziel sei die Einnahme möglichst vieler Redaktionen und Sendesäle von TV- und Rundfunkstationen in Berlin, Hamburg und Saarbrücken, um die Deligitimität der Bundesregierung und der verfassungswidrigen Corona-Maßnahmen über die Sender gehen zu lassen.

Die Gruppen stehen der deutschen Demokratiebewegung nahe. dpdb bedeutet demnach »Deutsche Presseagentur der Demokratiebewegung« und richtet sich unter anderem gegen den auf Konzern- gleichgeschalteten Monopolisten dpa, die Deutsche Presse-Agentur. Die Rede ist von »wachsender Opferbereitschaft« bei der Durchführung der Operation. Minimalziel sei, »dass die Propagandisten sich nur noch unter Polizeischutz an die Lügenarbeit« machen könnten. Die Aktion gelte unbefristet. »Operation Waldmichel« solle am heutigen Tag bis in die Nacht »erste Höhepunkte« erzielen.

Am gestrigen Tag der Deutschen Einheit und am Freitagabend waren bereits drei Gruppen unabhängig voneinander in Sendezentren der ARD und des RBB in Berlin gelangt. Ob es ihnen gelang, im Radio auf Sendung zu gehen, ist bislang nicht bekannt. Im TV war keine Änderung des propagandistischen Kurses feststellbar. In der 20-Uhr-Tagesschau der ARD wurde als erste Meldung der Ex-Bundespräsident Frank-Steinmeier zitiert: »Wir leben heute im besten Deutscghland, dass es jemals gegeben hat.« Am Samstagnachmittag war unter anderem ein »Seniorenchor der Kirchengemeinde Flensburg-Sankt-Johannis« aktiv in ein RBB-Sendezentrun eingedrungen und wollte sich eigene Meldungen zufolge anschließend noch auf den Weg zum Deutschlandfunk machen.

Am Freitag hatte die Demokratiebewegung erneut die Delegitimität der Bundesregierung erklärt und eine erste Übergangsverfassung vor 709 ehrenamtlichen Bundestagsabgeordneten aus allen Landesteilen vor dem Bundestag proklamiert. Der neofaschistische Berliner Senat wollte die Versammlung neuerlich angreifen lassen, die Polizeileitung vor Ort stellten den Abbruch der Kundgebung, die zugleich auch eine Gewerkschaftskundgebung beinhaltete, nach rund zwei Stunden in Aussicht, was die Demokratiebwegung dann auch umsetzte.

Am gestrigen Samstag ging due Bundeshauptstadt Berlin in einem Wirrwarr von hunderten Demonstrationen nahezu unter. Nirgends ergab sich ein gewohntes Stadtbild, nicht einmal in den Außenbezirken. Derweil formierte sich am Bodensee die längste Menschenkette Mitteleuropas gegen das verfassungswidrige Corona-Regime unter der Leitung des Preisträgers der Republik, Alexander Ehrlich (#honkforhope). Die Aufzeichnung aus Konstanz wurde später vom YouTube-Konzern zensiert. Das neofaschistische Regime log neuerlich die Teilnehmerzahlen drastisch herunter. +++

+++ Aktuell: Laut zweier Telegram-Meldungen aus der deutschen Demokratiebewegung mit Fotografien sind Oppositionelle in Sendesäle des RBB und des ARD-Hauptstadtstudios gelangt und wollen auf Sendung gehen. In weiteren Meldungen ohne Fotos ist vom ZDF und weiteren Radio-Stationen die Rede. — Sogar nach Meldungen des regierungs- und konzernpropagandistischen Tagesspiegel sind am heutigen Tag der Einheit nur 2.700 Polizisten in Berlin. Viele haben sich krankgemeldet oder bereits vollständig remonstriert.

Ein chaotischer Tag mit hunderten von Demonstrationen liegt hinter der Regierung: Das neofaschistische Corona-Regime wankt! — Wie mittlerweile gewohnt: Angeblich seien das alles »Links- oder Rechtsextreme«, heißt es in den Propagandamedien. — Die Regierung wird zurücktreten und die demokratische Debatte endlich freigeben müssen. +++

+++ vergangener Newsletter 103: Jede Demo ein Sieg der Demokratiebewegung +++

Liebe Demokraten!

In unendlicher Dankbarkeit durften wir feststellen, dass wir gestern fast zwei Stunden unserer Verfassungsgebenden Versammlung vor dem Bundestag durchführen konnten. Einige Videos sehen Sie auf unserem kleinen Schnipsel-Kanal »Hauptstadtstudio«, den die Kollegin dafür eigens reaktiviert hat.

Wir waren nach Ansicht des totalitären Lügen-Regimes und dessen Propagandaapparat »wechselnd von 20 bis 60 Verschwörungstheoretiker oder entstetzte Passanten«, womit wieder eine Zehnerpotenz und der Faktor drei subtrahiert worden sind und jder Inhalt pervertiert wurde. Wir sind jedenfalls sehr zufrieden und glücklich, unter solch fähigen Leuten aus der Mitte der Gesellschaft und aller Hintergründe Altersklassen, Berufsgruppen sein zu dürfen. An alle Anwesenden: Hochachtung und vielen Dank!

Einiziger echter Wermutstropfen: Die angemeldetete Hüpfburg wurde in letzter Minuten vom Grünflächenamt verhindert. Wir entschuldigen uns bei allen Kindern im Namen unserer Stadtverwaltung, die damit klargemacht hat, dass der Bundestag nichts für die Jüngsten ist. Torstens Knder verdrückten sogar ein Tränchen der Enttäuschung. Es tut uns Leid.

Aber die Dame beim Grünflächenamt war sich ganz sicher, dass sie nicht für uns arbeitet, die Menschen, die hier Leben, sondern für die Regierung. Die Kleinen sollen schließlich mit Masken und Abstandsterror fürs ganze Leben in Angst und Schrecken versetzt werden, damit sie reif für die psychosozial schrecklichste und ungleichste Diktatur sind, die es jemals auf Erden gegeben haben würde.

Warum überhaupt jemand vom Gründflächenamt eine bereits genehmigte Hüpfburg vor auf unserem Platz der Republik noch verhindern kann? Niemand weiß es. Wir werden solche Entwicklungen ja nun ein für alle Mal beenden und, wie man in Norddeutschland sagt, solche Hofschranzen mit ihrem vorauseilenden Gehorsam »ma auf'n Pott setz'n«.

Jedenfalls: Auf der gelungenen Hauptbühne vor dem Budnestag sprachen Anke Wolff und Daniel Ré für die Demokratische Gewerkschaft, Michael Ballweg für Querdenken und die Demokratiebewegung insgesamt, dann die Ärzte für Aufklärung, Uli Gellermann, Hendrik Sodenkamp, Anselm Lenz und viele andere mehr. Ein Dank an die Damen und Herren der Polizei, so können wir miteinander umgehen; für die Verbrecher Slowik und Geisel können wir alle nichts (Polizeipräsidentin und Innensenator).

Es wären noch mehr gute Beiträge hinzugekommen, darunter Musikbeiträge wie der Hanns-Eisler-Chor von Tommy (DG-Gruppe Basisdemokratie). Auch der geschätzte Philosoph Jay von Nicht ohne uns aus Köln musste entfallen. Warum? Der neofaschistische Berliner Senat entschied sich, die Kundgebung um 16:45 Uhr aufzulösen und weitere Spontananmeldungen und Aufzüge mit einer Polizistenkette auf beiden Seiten des Bundestages zu verhindern.

Derweil hatte sich vor der seit 2017 programmatisch zerstörten Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz eine erbärmliche Antifa-Darsteller-Show eingefunden (nochmal der Hinweis, dass echte Antifachisten belesene und nachdenklich Leute sind, die argumentieren können):

Sieben oder acht Söhnchen und Töchter von Bundestagsabgeordneten hatten sich als Tyrannus-Saurus-Rex verkleidet und versuchten, Rio-Reiser-Lieder zu singen. Wir riefen ihnen zu: »Würde er noch leben, er wäre entschieden auf unserer Seite.«

Die Gegenkundgebung vor der Volksbühne von den Regierungs- und Konzernpropagandaplattformen spiegel.de und tagesschau.de zwischenzeitlich mit 4.000 taxiert. Diese Posts verschwanden später, zu absurd ist die Fälschung, nicht einmal der neofaschistische rbb-Reporter und führende Lügenbold Olaf Sundermayer traute sich einen solchen Quatsch.

À propos Rio Reiser wäre auf unserer Seite: Wie Noël Gallagher von Oasis oder Ian Brown von den Stone Roses, die wir bereits allesamt zu unserer nächsten Großdemonstration in Berlin eingeladen haben unter dem international verständlichen Titel: »Wipe Out The Corona Regime Fully — Punish Not Only Those Responsible, Ostracize The followers, too! Get ready for the Final Battle! Never Forgive, Never Forget!«

Vielleicht kommen ja wieder einmal etwa 20 bis 60 Aluhüte und Antisemiten vorbei, die ein bißchen mit der Friedenstaube flattern und Grundgesetze schwenken?

Wir fühlen uns jedenfalls sehr wohl unter den friedlichen Menschen, mit denen wir zusammen gehen, und zu denen wir uns auch zählen; darunter sehr viele Arbeiter, Angstellte, Arbeitslose, viele Anwältinnen und Ärzte, dazu mit einer Quote von 50 Prozent Frauen oder mehr — und gewöhnen uns daran, dass das untergehende Regime geradezu fanatisch die Opfer der Shoah verhöhnt, indem das Regime und dessen Propagandaapparat nun jeden Anstand und jede Maske fallen lassen.

Wir kennen die Techniken inzwischen von innen und außen:

- Man behauptet einfach, man selbst sei das personifizierte Gute, früher aber ein Opfer gewesen

- Da man beides nicht ist und nie war, wählt man sich die Opfer einer mittlerweile dann doch recht fernen Vergangenheit als identifikationssubjekt (die echten Opfer können sich nicht wehren, sie wurden ja tatsächlich ermordet)

- Dann nimmt man diese Gruppe, verallgemeinert sie und behauptet, für sie sprechen zu dürfen (so erklären sich bezahlte Propagandisten wie der »Antisemitismusbeauftragte des Landes Baden-Württemberg mit dem Künstlernamen Michael Blume« — er könnte ein geschöpf Karl Valentins sein, aber eines der eher abscheulichen)

- Sodann wird ohne jeden Anstand, ohne Maß und unter Entstelleung und Pervertierung aller Inhalte die historische Judenverfolgung gegen jede und jeden eingesetzt, der dem wankenden Horrorregime nicht in den machtpolitischen Kram passt.

- Es gibt daran leider nichts zu beschönigen: Damit wird einem echten Andenken an die Judenverfolgung nur noch Hohn gesprochen; ein Vorgang, den Typen wie der frühere Außenminister J. Fischer begonnen haben, um die Bundeswehr in illegale Angriffskriege zu schicken (ein wahrlich psychopathischer Vorgang gegenüber ALLEN Beteiligten)

- man behauptet einfach, man selber sei die Demokratie und alle anderen seien undemokratisch

- man kürzt systematisch Nullen bei Demonstrationen weg und teilt durch den Faktor drei. Diese Zahl wird dann als Teilnehmerzahl per politischem Dekret durchgesetzt und Selbstunterwerfung duchgesetzt

- man bringt einfach jede und jeden in Verbindung mit irgendeiner als schlecht klassifizierten Vergangenheit, der das Wort »Verfassung« einfach nur in den Mund nimmt

- man instrumentalisiert die Polizei als private Haus- und Hoftruppen, um auf die Bevölkerung einzudreschen, die einem insgesamt unliebsam geworden ist und die offenbar weggemacht werden kann oder für allerlei Experimente auch noch körperlich herzuhalten hat

- man unterdrückt Demonstrationen

- man setzt Kinder und Alte unter Druck

- man erpresst Ärztinnen und Ärzte mit Berufsverboten

- man entstellt Lehrer als Kinder-und Schüler-Blockwarte

- man entlässt frühzeitig Journalisten wie Milosz Matuschek (NZZ) und Anselm Lenz (taz), die die Opposition zumindest mal zu Wort kommen lassen wollten

- man schickt die Bundeswehr illegal in die Gesundheitsämter

- man sendet zeichenhaft Drohgebärden wir die Idiotenstory von Nawalny (der in Rußland gar keine echte Bewegung auf die Beine gebracht hat), und sendet damt nur das Zeichen, dass man bereit ist, heimtückische Vergiftungen kräftig zu thematisieren (bietet sich fürs Corona-Regime ja an)

- man lässt auf Frauen, Schwangere und Familien eindreschen, die das Grundgesetz offen bei sich tragen

- ...

- und in letzter Konsequenz werden diese Leute womöglich wirklich nicht vor gezielten Morden zurückschrecken

- alles dies nicht einmal, weil sie wirklich daran glaubten, es handele sich tatsächlich um Faschisten, die sie mit allen Mitteln aufhalten müssen (das wäre wahnhaft, aber immerhin noch ein Stück weit nachvollziehbar), doch leider nein, es ist schlimmer:

- denn diese Leute wissen, dass sie lügen

- udn dies wohl leider einzig aus dem profanen Grund, dass sie selber eine neue Form des Faschismus sind (oder welches Wort man auch immer dafür anbringen will)

- fanatische Machtpolitiker und Zerstörer der Demokratie, jeden Gedankens an Grundrechte und die Freiheit von Forschung und Lehre

- diese Leute WOLLEN in die Diktatur, sie WOLLEN die Zerstörung der Demokratie und sie WOLLEN kriegerische Zustände im Land (es hat also keinen Sinn mehr zu glauben, wir könnten dort irgendjemanden überzeugen)

- sie werden alles tun, um ihre Machtpositionen zu verteidigen und auszubauen: Wie alle Faschisten sind sie machtbesessene Nihilisten; sie glauben an gar nichts, haben keine echten Prinzipien, kennen keine ethische Grenze und werden am Ende zu fast allem / möglicherweise wirklich zu allem bereit sein.

Daher wird sich für die deutsche Demkratiebwegung in den kommenden Monaten die Frage stellen, wie sie vermeiden kann, in die Militarisierung getrieben zu werden und trotzdem auf ihre demokratische Verfassungserneuerung auf Basis des Grundgesetzes (und damit der Widerherstellung der Demokratie) FRIEDLICH durchsetzen kann.

Der Gegner fälscht nachweislich Umfragen und Demozahlen; er wird auch nicht vor Wahlfälschung und möglicherweise gezieltem Mord zurückschrecken. Aber selbst nach solchen Vorgängen würden wir immer noch Millionen und Abermillionen von Demokratinnen und Demokraten sein, die die Wahrheit wissen — und wir sind verbunden mit weltweit weiteren Millionen und Abermillionen Demokratinnen und Demokraten gegen die Corona-Diktatur, etwa in Londen, in Mumbai, in Bamako, in Warschau, in Amsterdam, in Paris und Marseille, in der Schweiz, in Montreal, in Melbourne.

Wir werden uns durchsetzen, weil die historische Wahrheit zum Corona-Virus auf unserer Seite ist. Die Frage ist nur, wann wir uns durchsetzen — bzw. welche Fälschungsunternehmungen bis dahin noch lanciert werden.

Denn leider steht es bereits heute so, dass sich das Corona-Regime nur mit einer zweiten großen Krise wird retten können. Es steht leider zu befürchten, dass sie versuchen werden, einen großen Krieg anzzuzetteln. Man muss wahrlich kein Fan Donald Trump sein, um davon auszugehen, dass wenn Joe Biden die US-Präsidentschaftswahl gewinnt, der schon für 2016 für die Zeit unmittelbar nach einem Wahlsieg Killary Clintons geplante ganz große Krieg beginnen würde.

Was tun?

Was wir können. — Zum Beispiel in Berlin heute zur Siegessäule gehen ab 13 Uhr oder zur Menschenkette für Demokratie an den Bodensee!

Für den Abend, die Nacht und den morgigen Tag freuen wir uns besonders auf das Sportfest Schwarz-Rot-Gold in Berlin. Lasst uns unsere Einheit in Bewegung feiern! Ein herzliches Sport frei und

mit demokratischen Grüßen!

+++ Neue Ausgabe als E-Paper DW N°21 +++

Liebe Demokraten!

In unendlicher Dankbarkeit gegenüber unserer Regierung, der federführenden Welttyrannenkonzerne, des Imperiums und dessen großartiger Qualitätspresse wispern wir unter unseren doppelten Gasmasken demütig »Danke!«.

Sie gebieten über alles auf Erden und nur sie bestimmen über unsere Leben. Insofern sind wir dankbar, dass wir unser E-Paper unserer würdelosen Untermenschen-Zeitung Demokratischer Widerstand hiermit zu Ihnen ausbringen dürfen:

Das E-Paper DW N°21 vorab —> HIER.

Die gedruckte Ausgabe ist DANK ALLER BETEILIGTER seit Monaten die auflagenstärkste Print-Wochenzeitung (wenn man die BamS nicht mitzählt, die ja bekanntermaßen ein BILD und kein professionelles Journalistenprodukt ist) — es kann sich dabei nur um einen Fehler handeln, der sich in der Neuen Normalität schnell erledigen wird. Wir huldigen ab jetzt nur noch unseren lieben Führern.

Unser Fest am morgigen Freitag, dem 02. Oktober zusammen mit der Freedom Parade und Querdenken auf dem Platz der Republik (Bundestag) siehe u.a. —> HIER.

Mit demokratischen Grüßen!

Liebe Demokraten!

»Schöpferische Zerstörung ist unser zweiter Vorname, sowohl innerhalb unserer eigenen Gesellschaft als auch im Ausland. Jeden Tag reißen wir die alte Ordnung ein, von der Wirtschaft über Wissenschaft, Literatur, Kunst, Architektur und Film bis hin zu Politik und Recht … Sie müssen uns angreifen, um zu überleben, und wir müssen sie vernichten, um unsere historische Mission zu erfüllen.« — Michael Ledeen, The War against the Terror Masters, 2002

Dieses Zitat, dass hier aus dem Buch »Die Schockstrategie« der bekannten Autorin und Corona-Regime-Gegnerin Naomi Klein zitiert ist, gibt einen Einblick in die Psyche der Macher dieses Krieges gegen die Weltbevölkerung, der derzeit unter dem Stichwort »Corona« stattfindet.

Diese Leute glauben, auf einer »historischen Mission« zu sein und Gott spielen zu dürfen. Es sind Neofaschisten, die Kinder »Spuerspreader« nennen und glauben, eine ganze Zivilisation einsperren, drangsalieren, Masken aufnötogen und sogar Schwangere schlagen zu dürfen. Und unsere Regierung und Medienbetriebe sind leider weit vorn mit dabei. Das wird Folgen haben, denn wir dulden das nicht.

Note

So given what Ilia said and the fact the brothers were incriminated by the Scroll as well, I am beginning to think that Adam may be genuinely plotting a coup, especially given Sienna's lack of presence int he openings.

mm, i’m gonna be really disappointed if Adam’s supposed coup succeeds

we’ve only recently gotten Sienna’s name, everything we know about her has set her up as the reason the White Fang has become the way it is, the push Adam got to come into his own as edgelord supreme, and as of a week ago, we finally learned that she is literally one of the three women in a position of leadership in the entire show (and they’re all antagonistic, great job RT)

so Adam taking over turns taking back the White Fang away from “Blake reclaims the organisation that twisted her ideals into something horrible” into “Blake has to fight her ex-boyfriend again”. Adam as a character doesn’t have the established narrative weight to carry the kind of Big Bad position Sienna is in just by how the narrative has been set up; he’s a very personal villain but beyond what he’s done to Yang and Blake, he’s really nothing more than middle management - by rights Sienna should be better and far, far stronger than him (especially given who she’s based off of); Adam would (and should) be forgotten about once the damage he’s done to Blake and Yang has been overcome and isn’t holding them back anymore - once he’s defeated he has no real power anymore

Sienna is the corruption, the influence on the White Fang that has turned it into a terrorist cell; Adam was just one of the assholes she radicalised. replacing her with his edgy ass is just far less satisfying

Next Gen Fan Fic Ideas?

These particular ideas revolve around my RWBY next gen. It will also pre determine the histories that unfold for my characters seeing as that’s the only thing I never really grasped on much. Not all of them will revolve around it’s canon compliant which ever I so chose it to be but let me give you an idea of what routes I’m taking. Note: These stories we’re created a while before Yin and Shion’s introduction. More so Shion’s then Yin’s. Shion may not be in these stories. Yin will be in one or two of em maybe more lol. ----------------------------------------------------- Title/s: Slave Trade/To Be an Animal: (Title is debatable.) Summary: Mai enjoyed the life she had, her, her sister and parents sure there we’re times when things could be a little dull. But excitement always reared it’s head though Mai wouldn’t lie when she kinda hopes for something more exciting. Sadly sometimes it’s best to just be content with what you have. Plot: Mai separates with her sister for a short time to go and retrieve something she had forgotten only to be knocked out cold. She and two other friends find themselves chained and working in an unknown area with tons of other faunus. Mai must do her best to overcome the horrible conditions all while protecting her friends from the horrible men who have enslaved them. She only had to be strong until their families found them question was how long could she hold out?, and when they do finally save them, will their daughters be the same person they knew before, or a former shell of themselves. Simplified: Mai, Onyx and Cinna are kidnapped and traded to a faunus slave labor camp. Where they must endure punishments of all sorts, verbal and physical. What the story may contain: Abuse, Death, Rape (Mention), Trigger warnings such as PTSD, Anxiety, ect will be implied. This fanfic is mostly from Mai’s P.O.V. but will transition to Cinna’s, Onyx as well as Yin and even Blake an Yang. I will include a little Velvet/Coco as well as Neon but their roles might be minor. --------------------------------------------- Title: Born In Happiness, Raised In Hate: Summary: Blake and Yang are living their days of peace quite happily with their two daughters Yin and Mai. Both fairly young but happy and content which is more then both of them could have asked for. With the thoughts of any danger far beyond their mind, Blake and Yang decide to have a date night leaving Sun in charge of the little ones. Little did they know that would be the last time they’d see them for years to come. Plot: While Blake and Yang are out enjoying a double date with Weiss and Ruby. Yin and Mai only five years old at the time when The White Fang struck their home. Sun nearly losing his life in the process unable to protect the children as he’s forced to watch them get taken out of their beds and dragged into the shadows. Blake and Yang as well as Weiss and Ruby search frantically for the children only to find their tattered clothing stained in blood and a fellow white fang member dead and shredded while Grimm laid scattered. The grief fills their minds and assume the worse. Mai and Yin are dead. Ruby trying to be that beacon of hope wants to believe the girls are still alive and somewhere safe despite her sister and sister in law’s worries. Plot Continuation: While the search does continue for a couple years they all have but given up hope. Unaware that Adam had taken them in and had Ilia as well as a few other members of the White Fang train, watch over them. As they grow older Yin and Mai both begin to question their origin and why they can’t remember their families despite Adam telling them they we’re long gone. The only source of comfort they had growing up was Illia who serviced as both a legal guardian and fight instructor. When tensions rise and the sisters question they’re loyalty Adam uses both of them against the other as leverage to keep them in line. His favoritism tends to go more towards Yin. Mai senses an impending hatred from Adam yet can’t place why. Simplified: Yin and Mai are kidnapped by Adam’s men in the White Fang at a very young age and trained under his watch and they must go through trials in order to get what they want. What the story may contain: Abuse/Sexual Abuse, Child Abuse, Death, Trigger warnings will be implied. (Given they’re 16/17 during this story may hint at age difference as well given the sexual abuse mention so warnings all around.) This fanfic will be from Mai and Yin’s P.O.V. as well as transitioning to Blake/Yang, Ruby/Weiss and even Ilia and Sun. This idea came from another RWBY fanfic known as Surrender which was written by an amazing writer known as SimplyKorra. ------------------------------------------------- Title/s: Who Am I?/Where Do I Belong (Alpha/Omega Verse) Summary: Blake left Beacon. Left her friends, her family, her partner, unable to deal with the guilt of the pain she had caused she goes back to Menagerie to find some peace but comes to the startling conclusion she did not go back alone. Aside from Sun tagging along Blake brought back another one she wasn’t aware of until weeks later. Discovery of an unexpected pregnancy puts Blake in a rather scary situation luckily she is not there alone. Her parents and even Sun offered to help but without Yang it just didn’t feel right. Plot: Blake giving birth to Mai was both a blessing and a curse. Her mother explained to her that it would be impossible not to love the child the second she saw it. It was far too true for many reasons. While it was a faunus like Blake, it looked like Yang, Mai had darker blonde hair then Yang did but it was a constant reminder and that only served a higher purpose when Mai first opened her eyes. Her bright red eyes. All Blake could think of was Yang’s reaction to her unknown child and to how and to how angry she’d be for not only never contacting her about it but leaving int the first place. The eyes we’re a constant reminder for Blake, many regrets, many heartaches but her having Mai was never one of them. Sun had even offered to help in any way he could but as Mai got older she saw a little more of herself. Mai wasn’t an oblivious child, she knew Sun wasn’t her father, she’d constantly ask and Blake would never know what to say, she never confirmed nor denied Sun being her father which only made Mai question it more. Which made things worse when Mai would try to make friends, she was an odd looking Faunus it wasn’t so much the blonde hair that made her stand out, it was her eyes, other children refused to play with her even the parents refused to let their children near her. The more she aged the more she questioned who she was, where she came from and who her other parent was. Why mother never spoke of her why she always looked so sad when Mai would bring it up or those times when she thought Mai didn’t notice the off stares her mother would send her. She had all but drawn the conclusion that her other parent was dead, around the age of eight she had even slowly come to accept it. That is until she bumped into someone in town. A human woman one that resembled her far too much for it to be a coincidence. Simplified: When Blake fled Beacon she settled in Menagerie and soon gave birth Mai a child she wasn’t even aware she had at the time of leaving. Raising her with or without Sun was difficult for Blake mostly because she was just too much like Yang. Life is somewhat peaceful until a woman comes to menagerie wanting answers and Mai is one of the biggest questions she’ll have trouble answering among others. What the story may contain: This will be more of the lighter stories so it may contain cursing, bullying, fighting and a lot of emotional turmoil but it’s a much lighter story. This story will only contain Mai out of my Blake and Yang Next gen children. I had this idea in my head longer then any others long before Yin was created so I figured I’d add it. It will also be in Mai’s P.O.V. along with Blake/Yang, Sun, Ghira/Kali and maybe others only time will tell. -------------------------------------------- These are just a few I’ve had in mind for a while. I wouldn’t mind some ideas or feed back on which one I should do. Now to be honest I am not a hundred percent sure if I will write it due to the fact I am horrible with grammar and other things. But I might if people are genuinely curious.
