OKAY RANDOM IK NO ONE CARES OR EVEN REMEMBERED BOUT ME POSTING BOUT BIG BRO TORCHWICK AU BUT OH WELL!!!

Big Bro Torchwick AU

technically a Roman Lives AU

Roman Torchwick, a upcoming superstar in the news as a new criminal. Actually being Roman Xiao-long, a more rebellious son of Taiyang’s. A school dropout,

Many of Ruby’s things like her hair is influenced by Roman, and his stupid teenage self accidentally cutting her hair bad.

Neapolitan had followed an oath to never harm any of the Xiao-long sibling due to Torchwick’s orders. So instead of Neo being forced to fight Yang, it was rather Blake.

His other name beside Roman, (the one Taiyang wanted to call him still does) is Zhu

Close and overprotective but much of a bastard with his siblings. Especially more protective of Ruby, but with Yang it’s a more similar relationship with Raven and Qrow. (without the hatred and just more childish sibling banter)

Main reasons for his huge protectiveness with Ruby stems from his relationship with Summer. With an absent mom, and his father obviously caring more for his sister it felt like someone cared for him truly. Though sadly after she died, he never took it well but wanted to hopefully be a good enough brother for Ruby to still care for.

Roman naturally has died black hair, his ginger hair being died to “hide his real idenity” which is obviously seen through when he visits his dad.

Ruby never recognizes Torchwick as her brother, especially due to his sudden fashion sense change.

When Beacon falls, Torchwick still meets up with Ruby but instead to just destroy Beacon. It’s more about his brother-ness taking the best of her, and confesses it was him “Ruby’s big disappointment of a big brother” and before Ruby could get her hug, he instead gets monched on….

Which he lives! somehow by Qrow being able to save him, but since was saved they both agreed to never mention it again.

He does eventually gets his reunion with Yang and Taiyang (soon ruby but—) he was immediately pronounced groundeed. (also clowned Yang for being stuck in bed, only to get yelled by Yang about him being grounded)

One of many reasons Taiyang absolutely gives up caring for Roman being him easily sneaking out, which somehow he still never is able to catch him.

Sneaks out to follow Ruby and RNJR on their journey, without Ruby knowing he was alive and stuff. Though was caught by Qrow, who was also watching over the group. So he obligatory got watched over and gettinh babysit by Qrow instead of being stuck at home.

Ruby and Romans reunited moment is a bit more dramatic, but then again Roman is already a theatre kid.

Roman basically becomes a antihero, and instead of doing crime on good guys, its doing crime of bad guys.

Yang and Ruby aren’t really close, especially with Yang mostly spending her time with Taiyang more than with Roman and Ruby. Especially when Roman is more “olderly brother” with Ruby than Yang was w Ruby. So when Roman had left, it left Ruby more quiet and depressed. Yang obviously wanting to still act as her sister, and being more “Roman-like” but often time it never truely works.
