#Nora the Saint

[dolcentral]

Nora posting:

Nora is everyone's favorite girly. Top student, keeps making Bailey cum by accident when she can't pay her rent because she doesn't have a job, a try hard in the extreme when it comes to the temple but she has close to no willpower and that's okay.

She's dating Sydney and spends most of her time at school or in the temple. She keeps failing her temple advancement trials and it makes her so sad like a little wet cat. She also is... so autistic about her religion. Her older brother Spirit tried to give her practical advice for surviving and she took some of it and then proceeded to go to the temple and never look back.

She has also passed out several times now because whenever rent gets close she pulls all nighters at the temple to avoid Bailey. It never works and she just ends up making him cum anyways so it is definitely an experience for her.

I Wish Schnee a Merry Christmas

Of course, I wish thee a merry Christmas, too. Happy holidays, everyone! I thought I’d put together something new and festive to celebrate with you all, and I’m quite happy with how it turned out.

A nice, gripping story to pull at the heart strings; Weiss’s once cheerful home with Old Nick, the sad times with her family under Jacques, then finding a welcoming new home among her friends, and going on to build happy holiday memories with her new family. Of course, given a little more time, I think I’d have added a few moments of Klein and Winter sneaking a few gifts in during Weiss’s childhood. I definitely see them breaking Jacques’s rules a little to give Weiss a few more happy moments.

This is pretty much how I headcanon holiday celebrations for the Schnees. Nicholas was a big ol’ Santa Claus, Jacques doesn’t care about family celebrations and leaves it all to corporate events, and then a big welcoming friend’s party from the teams that Weiss isn’t used to, only for Weiss to then fully embrace it and be super into the holiday spirit and very involved with her new family’s celebrations.

As for editing, I had a good bit of fun recreating Jacques’s and Willow’s legs, adding in a reflection for them, and pulling all the color out of the Christmas tree to make it a very Schnee blue. Feels good to see the progress in my editing skills since I started brushing up on them last year. I can do a lot more and a lot faster now, this whole thing was just some on and off work over the past week. Like changing Zwei’s black fur to that rusty red-brown, that’s something quick and easy to do now, and looks good.

Anyway, happy holidays again, hope you enjoy the season and this edit as much as I do! It’s my present to all of you!

The savior who couldn't save anyone

(Part of a bigger story related to the "A saint in Beacon" Au's. Which is, for everyone who forgot, a Fate x RWBY fanfic.)

Her mask fell, letting him see who protected the monster he needed to kill.

"I'm... Sorry... Jaune. I should have listened... To you-" She fell on the ground, her heart having been pierced by his dagger.

Nora laid dead before him.

His hands, covered in the blood of his friend was screaming at him. He killed her. He took the life of his last remaining friend.

"No..." He knelt beside her, trying to use his aura to heal her to no avail. "No no NO!" Taking in his arms, shaking her "WHY!? WHY WERE YOU HERE!? I PROMISED REN AND LIA TO PROTECT YOU, SO WHY WERE YOU HERE!?!" She couldn't answer, but he knew the answer. He knew the answer far too well.

Jaune was sweating, his breath uneven. Her blood was now covering his clothes, the clothes she bought for him. "Nora... Please..." He hugged her, crying as he felt her warmth leaving her. "I just wanted to protect you! Please, stay with me... don't go..."

"She only wanted to help you, you know? Seeing you suffer day after day, trying to save everyone by yourself..." A feminine voice said, almost as if whispering in his ears "She came to me for help and you killed her. As did all my disciples."

Jaune slowly stood up, looking at the nun who promised people their every desires. "You knew..." Tighten his fist "You knew she was vulnerable and took advantage of her. OF EVERYONE!"

"Fufu~ as i said, she came to me of her own volition. So did everyone else." She began walking the distance separating them, smiling a kind smile. "It was you who brought everyone pain and death, while i was saving them! Giving them love!"

Jaune, furious "YOU DIDN'T SAVE THEM!" Unsheathing his daggers "YOU USED THEM! TOOK EVERYTHING FROM THEM UNTIL ONLY A HUSK REMAINED!"

"Did i? I remember them clearly giving me everything they had of their own accord." Tilting her head, looking at him with a wry smile "YOU decided to brand me as an enemy. We could have worked together, bring salvation to this world!" She shook her head "A shame..." Her smile turned sadistic "I would have loved taking pleasure with both you and your friend! She had such a tender soul~"

"I'm sorry..." He took a last glance at Nora, her face now peaceful in death "Nora..." He shook his head "Rest, you deserve it..." He took his fighting stance, looking at Kiara with eyes of steel. "I'll never let you hurt anyone else."

___________________________________________

Nora was looking at the ceiling of her room, tears flowing from her eyes

"Master? Is everything alright?" Avenger looked at her, worried.

Nora, quickly drying her tears with her arms, looked at her servant. She didn't know his name, but she always felt safe with him near her.

"It's nothing" She said, shaking her head. "I just had a bad dream, that's all." She sat up, stretching her arms as the first ray of sunlight crept their way inside the dorm she shared with her adoptive sister Lia and her two other teammates, Jeanne and Pyrrha. "Nothing that can't be fixed with pancakes, right?" She smiled, trying to calm her servant down.

Avenger could tell she was lying. He also knew she wouldn't tell him, in fear of making him worry for her. "*Sigh* ..." He placed his hand on her head, scruffing her hair with a gentle smile.

Nora, trying not to laugh "Stop it!~ You are giving me an even worse bed head!"

"I'll go prepare breakfast, wake the others in the meantime, ok?" He said

Nora, nodding "Yeah yeah, i'll wake them up... After i changed myself. I want to be first at eating your stuff!"

If I had a nickel for every time a RWBY character’s main color scheme matched a trans pride flag I’d have two(2) nickels.

Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird (very fun) it happened twice.

7/21/2024: July is Disability Pride Month!

Dulcie is our most visibly disabled doll, which is to say she's the one who uses obvious mobility aids most of the time. She has forearm crutches; she recently received a wheelchair for days when that's better! She also has a service dog, Chrysanta (our original dog character do not steal!

For those not in the know about Locked Tomb canon, Dulcie was born with hereditary leukemia. She's lived far, far longer than anyone anticipated (thanks in part to medical interventions suggested by Palamedes and Camilla) but it's not easy for her. Mobility is often an issue; in canon she uses a pulmonary drain, while many modern AUs see her using a cannula and oxygen tank. She has a lot of bad pain days and her immune system is nearly nonexistent.

Her partners Cam and Pal are both autistic. Camilla has more sensory issues and experiences nonverbal periods; Pal also has ADHD and would readily admit that he jumps between hyperfixations.

Speaking of AuDHD folks!

Here are all of them! (As far as we/they know. There are a couple of folks who are still up in the air here.)

In the back row: Kavi, who has (semi-)canonical ADHD; Nora, who's autistic; one of our new girls, Nancy (yes as in Drew), who's autistic; Judith, who's autistic but hates talking about it and is only in the photo because Nona begged her; May, who's autistic.

In the front row: another new girl, Sookie (yes as in Stackhouse), who's autistic (ADHD was canonically considered for her in childhood as a way to explain what was really her fairy stuff but disregarded; I still think she's autistic); Kit, who has ADHD; Cam and Pal, as said above; Courtney, who's autistic; Harrow, who's autistic (and schizophrenic, and has PTSD, and has depression, and has anxiety, and probably has an eating disorder); Gideon, who's AuDHD.

And in front of everyone: Nona, who's AuDHD and everything else.

Ianthe, who's sporting a new wig, is obviously disabled because she lacks an arm. She's got PTSD from that whole incident; she's probably got some other stuff going on, but damned if she's going to admit it.

Miss Maryellen is also disabled! Canonically, she had polio as a child; she now has one weaker leg and, again, pulmonary issues.

Of course there's Joss, who's canonically deaf/HoH. She has no hearing in her left ear and a minimal amount in her right, which she uses a hearing aid in. She also uses sign language when needed.

Wolfwalkers (2020) | TV Spot 3 - Apple TV+

Saw this masterpiece for the first time today at a revival theater in my area. The animation is gorgeous, and the music... The writing was so good! The tension they built in the third act, and the symbol of the cage... I definitely cried.

The Saint: The Queen's Ransom (5.1, ITC, 1966)

"You realise that a few years ago I could have had your head chopped off for that?"

"A few years back, I wouldn't have said it."

LET’S F^#KING GO!!!

A saint in Beacon Extra 1

Jeanne: Hey, mind if i ask a question?

Lia: *drinking her tea* Go on.

Jeanne: Well, i know Nora is your adoptive sister, but you also told me you have a brother, right?

Lia: Yeah, Lie Ren, why? Curious if he's going to come to Beacon? Jeanne: I mean i guess? I do have a brother who is supposed to come soon enough.

Lia: *sigh* Well, for your information he's already in Beacon. Though his team was kinda weird for what he told me.

Jeanne: How so?

Lia: For starter, White and Red sister's are on his team. Jeanne: I alway wanted to meet White's family, he is alway so kind, i'm sure his siblings are the same! And Red sister? Wasn't she 15? Lia: That's why i said weird. though the weirdest of them all hasn't arrived yet. Of what i heard, he was trained by the mysterious lady of the lake in some kind of Aura manipulation technique which give him incredible power with dust. Jeanne: *sweating* Oh no. Lia: *looking at Jeanne with egle eyes* Jeanne? You're ok? Jeanne: *akward laugh* Well i uh... i know who's the foth member of the team. Nora: *who was listening to everything* AH! Let me guess, he's your brother? Jeanne: ... My twin. Meanwhile Jaune: ACHOO! *Blake dust activating in his hand, making him crash in the wall* Morgan: Hey! Be cautious when you're using dust! And bless you!

Arc Method for Saving Atlas & Mantel

Jaune stood at the edge of atlas, making a plan. Salem was here, and the safety of the world was in balance. Next to him his sister Saphron Cotta-Arc and her wife Terra Cotta-Arc stood. Saphron holding an ornate case, while Terra clutched an aged leather tome to her chest.

Saphron: Are you sure?

Jaune: I am.

Terra: We're with you Jaune.

Jaune: Then let us begin. Saphron bring it here, and Terra if you please...

Saphron stepped before Jaune...

Terra: And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying,  'O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.'  And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large chulapas...

Saphron: Terra honey... maybe skip ahead a bit?

Terra: Are you sure? We are using the the Holiest of the Arc Armory to save all of Remnant... maybe we should...

Saphron: I think it will be okay.

Terra: Jaune?

Jaune: It's okay.

Terra: Okay, but if this doesn't work, don't say I didn't warn you.

Jaune: It will work because we have the strength of faith.

Saphron: That we do.

Terra: And the Lord spake, saying,  'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.'

Saphron: May your arm be strong and your aim true brother!

Jaune: Okay...

Jaune pulls the pin and rears back his arm for the most important throw of his life...

Jaune: 1!

Jaune: 2!

Jaune: 5!

Saphron& Terra: 3!

Jaune's arm shot forward sending the Blessed Weapon of mass destruction directly at the Grimm beast hanging in the air above Atlas...

Meanwhile standing in the court yard of Atlas Academy...

Oscar/Ozpin: That happened.

Ironwood: Did they?

Ruby: Just blow up a Grimm Whale?

Clover: With a hand grenade?

Nora: HELL YEAH!!! Fearless Leader!!!! I want you babies!!!
