(Ever-Afteran Arc Children 1)

Jaune watches as a 5-year-old Hunter, dressed in a mix of leather armor and a old tunic, is looked over by the others.

Yang, watching the others interact with the kid: "...So, you said that you just came across him in the forest?"

Jaune: "Pretty much, yeah. Seems like he was sent my way."

Yang: "Well, I have to admit that he definitely looks like your kid."

Ren: "I would have to agree. If you didn't tell us, I would assume that you simply brought a younger cousin."

As they watched the others interact with the child, Yang turned to Jaune.

Yang: "Say, what did the Grim Lord look like again?"

Jaune: "Uh, head taller than me. Wicked armor, with a cloak made from blood. General 'Demon King' kind of look. Why do you ask?"

Yang: "...No reason."

Baby Dandelion (Jaune x Ruby Baby)

Everytime I write Time Together, I get babyfever so bad it kills me. So here, baby Dandelion for all your sweetheart needs. She is dedicated to the commenter that called her “a sweet little bean.” How did you know?

Edit: you guys haven't bonded with her yet. She’s not just a two dimensional, conflictual plot device, she gets a whole personality and much bonding time. You think I’d do whole concept art pieces and build the whole story towards her just to sit her in a pram and have her parents argue about her? We still have 14 years in the Everafter to fill.

Penny: ... What are you doing? And where did you find... All of that?

Jaune: *tools in hand* Well, we need a house don't we? You can't expect us to sleep in a cave for years now, do you? And where did I find the tools? Easy, i used the relic of creation!

Penny: Couldn't it have made the house for us?

Jaune: See, i asked him that but he told me that since Atlas will use him to make... Well, Atlas floats, it would ask too much power from him to create a complete mansion at the same time. So instead i will build the house and i'll ask him for electricity when we are finished.

Penny: May i help you?

Jaune: You really thought i was going to work on this alone? Of course you will help me! Oh i'm so excited! It's like building my own treehouse but bigger and better!

Penny: *smiling* Glad you found something to occupy ourselves with. *Taking a saw* Let's do this love. *Kiss him*

And thus began the first "adventure" of Jaune and Penny in the ever after.

After the Ever After #3

Back at home base

Nora: *Worry* You're leaving?!

Jaune: I just need some time to adjust to this world again. I'll be back soon.

Nora: But what about us! Our team!

Ruby: *walks in* What's going on here?

Nora: Jaune wants to leave us!

Ruby: What?!

Jaune: I'm not leaving permanently. I'll be back, I promise.

Ruby: *Looks at him in thought*

Nora: Say something Ruby! Don't let him go!

Ruby: Do you promise to comeback?

Nora: Ruby!

Jaune: Arc promise.

Ruby: Ok, we will wait for you.

Nora: No! *Hugs Jaune tight* You can leave us! I thought I lost you when you didn't come out on the other side. I don't want to lose you again.

Jaune: *hugs her back* It's ok Nora. I'll be back soon. Have I ever not kept my promise?

Nora: Pyrrha

Jaune:...

Jaune: Nora, that's not fair.

Nora: Please stay.

Jaune: I can't

Nora: *Crying* Please

Jaune: *Holding back* I'm sorry

Nora stops hugging Jaune and steps aside. Jaune takes the backpack from her and heads towards the hallway.

Jaune: See you soon.

Ruby: See you soon Jaune.

Nora:...

As he walks into the hallway he sees Ren and Oscar leaning against the wall.

Jaune: I assume you guys heard what happened.

Ren: *Nods*

Oscar: Please take this with you.

he gives Jaune a polaroid with all his friends.

Oscar: Just in case you feel lonely.

Jaune: *Smiles* Thank you.

Ren: I'm sorry Jaune.

Jaune: Sorry for what?

Ren: I don't know, for everything.

Jaune: I see, well don't worry about.

Ren: Be safe.

Jaune: I will

Jaune leaves the two behind and walks towards the exit. Once outside he walks north. After a few moments he stops in the middle of the road.

Jaune: You know, I planned this trip with the idea of being alone.

Emerald: *Using her semblance she appeared near him with a backpack* How did you know I was following you?

Jaune: When you have a murderous monster hunting you, you learn a thing or two in the Ever After.

Emerald: Jeez dude, good way to light up the mood.

Jaune: Well, why don't you go back to the others?

Emerald: You're not my boss.

Jaune: Well I-

Emerald: And I know that you need someone to watch your back.

Jaune: Em, look...

Emerald: I'm not asking. I'm telling you.

Jaune: *Sighs* Fine

Emerald: So where are we going?

Jaune: To check on an old friend of mine.

THE GUYS!! It's really cool to see them again :,] WE'RE SO READY FOR MOVIE NIGHT WOOO <3

[king-mac-xiii]

The Ever After once had a grand protector in the form of the Rusted Knight. A figure that inspired as though they were a storybook figure. A man who stood tall to defend those in need, who guided the young Alyx across the mad, mad world.

But life is often more cruel than those old stories. The Knight could not protect everyone. Could not live forever. During a flood among the Paper Pleasers, the Knight was caught in the wash and was lost to the Ever After.

But no one is truly lost in the Ever After. For a new figure stood tall to defend them. Rise, Great Knight and be recognized. With your three Helpful Heralds.

Stand.

He is called the D'arc Angel.

(Just a little thing I realized I did while I was painting the Knight. Writer brain never stops.)

yk. the resistance ppl have to so much as considering the idea that mike might not jump to immediately and enthusiastically engaging in obvious n indisputably gay shit with will publicly is kinda funny in a puzzling way when season three and season four, where he does exactly that the entire way through, are literally right there for us all to watch on netflix.com. like. Okay ❤️

(Arcs Of The Ever-After 4)

Jaune, opening the door: "Hey, we're...back..."

Ren, Weiss, and Blake, all both mentally and physically exhausted: *half mumbled greetings, too exhausted to form actual words*

Nora: "Hey, we got-woah, what happened to you three?"

All three of them points to the young Hunter, who is covered in blood, but rather unscathed.

Hunter: 🙂 *waves at Jaune*

(What the hell happened while the others were gone?)

[gayleafpool]

ppl hate crowleaf for the wrong reasons i personally think it’s great for what it is: an unhealthy relationship leafpool felt pressured into bc it was a way for her to get away from a life she was unhappy with and a future she was nervous about. and then it doesn’t work out because she can’t give crowfeather the level of devotion he expects from her and in the end she doesn’t win because there was no way for her to win. like that’s the tragedy of it. unhappy in the clans and unhappy away from them. and she still gets punished for it for the rest of her life for daring to go against what was expected of her. is the relationship healthy or good for leafpool? no. was it important to the plot and did it raise interesting questions about leafpool’s life and how she was always going to have a life of misery no matter what she did or how hard she tried? yes

[druidshollow]

"what would your character be like without their trauma?" is such a hard question for me because it makes me feel like a massive asshole LMAO

(im attaching a picture of a tundra literally to add context to my ramble in the tags because my posts are structured by a sane person) (you should read the ramble in the tags i talk so much about rivers fsr)

[no1ryomafan]

It’s the way I’m in between of “I’m okay if getter gets zero no content this year even though it’s the 50th anniversary because dynapro bot wise it’s grendizer year which has been long overdue, plus getter could be having it worse compared to other mechas” and “please god if your gonna give us even a crumb make it a new spin off manga at least even if I’m probably not gonna read immediately or just a fucking figure that ISN’T shin getter”

Jaune: *waking up on a beach* I'm... Still alive? Then that mean- *looking around to see if he could see team RWBY or Penny* not here of course, would have been too easy right? Hm... Let's go look around first, that place looks... Strange.

___

Penny: *getting gently moved so she can wake up* No, please, give me 5 more minutes.... *More forcefully* hmmm, i said 5 more minutes...

Jaune: *roll his eyes* PENNY!

Penny: *finally opening her eyes* Ok, i'm awake! Gee, can't even sleep of electric sheeps! Wait... Jaune? *Smiling and hugging him quickly* Oh i'm so happy to see you! I thought i was... Wait, are we dead? *Panic in her eyes* ARE YOU DEAD!? Oh no! Oh nononono, NO!

Jaune: *laughing* Relax, we are fine! Does this look like the pearly gates of heaven?

Penny: *taking a look around her, seeing trees and a really colorful vegetation* ... No, but tell me; did we ingest psychedelic mushrooms?

Jaune: Yeah, i know what you mean, but no. Everything is real.

Penny: It looks like a book in my data- i mean memory. Though now that i try to remember it, i can't seem to remember it.

Jaune: Wouldn't be the first time a fairy tail turned out to be true. Anyway we should move out. If we could find each other, we probably will find team RWBY, right?

Penny: *panicking* They all fell!?

Jaune: Ah, yeah, forgot you felt just after yang and Blake. But yeah we need to find them.
