Whiteknight, Future Au

Halloween in the Arc-Schnee resident, weiss and jaune give out candy to the last trick or treaters, they're getting ready to attend Ruby's birthday/Halloween party, jaune dress as a typical knight.

Weiss came down looking like this,

How much self control do you have sir knight?.

"TRICK OR TREAT!!" Shouted a group of costumed children as they stood at the front door of the Arc-Schnee residence.

"We're closing early!" Jaune Arc said, dressed as the Rusted Knight he quickly handed out candy to the confused kids, then closed the door and turned off the porch light. "HAPPY HALLOW'S NIGHT!"

You know that "Mundane super power" aspect you mentioned?

Another thing I like about crossing over RWBY characters with other settings is how easily their nature as basically coming from an apocalyptic hell-world can bleed through.

This is hard to articulate, but like.

The casual way in which towns disappear, that ruins dot the landscape, that people like Ruby & Yang grew up immersed in a culture that trended towards violence and early graves.

There's a nifty Naruto/Stargate crossover, (Its complicated) where Himawari kind of subtly disturbs the Stargate crew cos she knows exactly how best to behave in a dangerous situation, doesn't really seem bothered when enemies die and has been taught stuff like "Reading the battlefield."

I think RWBY characters would be similarly off-putting in their own way unless they were incredibly sheltered like Jaune or rich enough to have not ever encountered a Grimm until the the Beacon Test like Weiss. & even then, the lived experience, training and cultural awareness means they'd likely still come off as a little off-putting.

This also plays into how Ruby and Yang are seemingly quite... Not comfortable, but functional about the prospect of causing death or grievous bodily harm in a way most Shounen/action protags aren't.

Ruby, as far as she knew, sent Neo hurtling to her death in V3 and was at most momentarily shocked when Roman died & forgot all about it. Yang processed killing Adam in a very straightforward manner, she's not cavalier about it, but she'd made peace with it being a them or us situation right quick.

There's plenty of other examples but I think we've discussed it before.

But yeah, I just think its fun, even in series that can have similar degrees of destruction or death, their relative youth and manner with it would likely still make many locals be like (oO) & I think that's fun.

Oh yeah, this has always been a great idea for RWBY crossovers.

And one of my favorite/most interesting parts about is, as you touched on, how subtle Team RWBY’s whole vibe is and how it can potentially sneak up on others.

Like Team RWBY and really most of the show’s characters generally DON’T give off any real obvious ‘I come from a fucked-up deathworld’ vibes like being real dark, broody or even just looking anything the part. For anyone from a much more mundane setting/background, Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang generally come off as a friendly, likeable, good natured bunch without really anything all that offputting.

For about… eighty to ninety percent of the time.

But then you’ve got those 10-20% moments where the dark, serious ‘fantasy war-veteran’ sides of Team RWBY slip out. Like they might not even have been trying to hide it, it just comes out when things get serious.

Like maybe there is some big disaster or some other terrible event perhaps caused by the villains that leaves the more ‘normal’ characters/heroes frozen in shock and horror, meanwhile RWBY are just immediately jumping into the fray to fight or help however they can. With perhaps one or more doing the whole ‘slap the shock’ out of the other characters with a ‘We got work to do!’. And it’s just kind of… unsettling how Team RWBY takes these events in stride.

Or to build off your point on Ruby and Yang, as well as Blake and Weiss, being ‘functionally alright’ with hurting/killing people*, there’s a LOT of juicy potential there for when Team RWBY goes up against more mundane villains.

Like just picture a situation where a villain is threatening innocents in a classic ‘you’ll have to KILL ME to stop me!’ standoff that has the heroes freezing up… only for Ruby to almost immediately just shoot said villain.

She certainly looks like she didn’t enjoy or even want to do it, but both how quickly she did it and how easily she seems to role with it afterwards are just REALLY unsettling.

And then there’s what I’d call the FLIPSIDE to all this in how Team RWBY deals with being in a world that might NOT actually be filled with monsters who are an ever-present existential threat to humanity.

Like even for someone who grew up more sheltered like Weiss that is almost certainly going to be a MASSIVE culture-shock. Not to mention that the only people with a frame of reference that Team RWBY would be able to talk to about this would likely be each other.

Even in settings that might have some kind of monsters threatening humanity such as most magical girl shows, the appearance and threat that these monsters pose are almost always a very RECENT occurrence that most people might not even know about. Generally in these settings, the ‘normal, mundane world’ IS the norm, with the dangerous and supernatural merely popping up on and off in isolated places.

It could really create this interesting contrast where Team RWBY finds the mundane world that their new friends consider ‘normal’ to be just a bit uncanny and unsettling. And even finding it a bit comforting when monsters or some other supernatural threat to fight shows up because that feels more NORMAL to them.

This is actually something I tried/am still trying to explore in my Kingdom Hearts crossover fic. Like Ruby musing on how to explain her whole huntress background to Sora, Kairi and Riku when to them, monsters are things that have existed in storybooks, while for Ruby monsters have always been REAL. Or Ruby even noting a comforting ‘return to normal’ when she starts fighting the Heartless.

I’ve even got ideas for Ruby, as well as Weiss, Blake and Yang further on, idly musing on whether the Grimm or Heartless are the worse to fight, with some of their new friends being just a BIT weirded out.

And that’s not even getting into the potential of Team RWBY interacting with various Disney movie settings. Like I’ll admit that I kinda REALLY want to have Ruby boom-headshot at least one Disney villain XD

*I will say, I’ve had a theory for a while that Ruby, even more so than her teammates, has particular ideological reasons to generally avoid killing people, specifically when we consider how Ruby specifically DOESN’T use her ‘walking grimm-blender’ style of fighting against human opponents. Personally I imagine Ruby seeing it as ‘I hunt MONSTERS, not people.’ That being said, I don’t see Ruby as having some strict ‘no-killing’ ‘one rule’, but rather that she views taking a life as a last resort.

Lunch time in the cafeteria.*

Jaune: Here ya go babe, coffee and a little cupcake. 

Pyrrha: Oh thank you Jaune! *Looks at the little cupcake.* Awww, and this little cake is so cute! Aww, it’s so small and round, it’s adorable. Oh the little bunny face in icing on top? Don’t you just want to cuddle it and take it home? Oh I could just eat you up! *Suddenly grows sad, clearing her throat awkwardly.*

Jaune: You personified an inanimate object and upset yourself again didn’t you?

Pyrrha, sighing: Yeah. I have to stop doing that, first it was Henry my pen who ran out of ink, then it was Larry my bite-size sandwich, Milo and Akouo... You don’t think it’s weird do you?

Jaune: You gave a cupcake a name and a personality in three seconds flat, then got upset cos you’re gonna eat it. Yes, you’re crazy. *Smiles at her pout.* But you’re adorable crazy.

Pyrrha: Thanks. I think?

Ruby Rose and Fox Faunus Weiss *finally* talk about their feelings in the most recent chapter of We May Fall: Guide My Way, Part 1.

And then things get wildly NSFW.

Weiss: You know… I’ve been thinking back to when you asked me to the dance.

Jaune: You – ah, you have? I’m sorry if I was a bit… much, back then.

Weiss: Don’t worry, you weren’t so bad. It certainly frustrated me to no end back then, but now it seems cute. Something personal, and heartfelt. I had all these ideas in my head and, well…

Jaune: I shouldn’t have kept at it like that.

Weiss: No, but now things are different. Things have changed – we have changed. And I wouldn’t mind you trying your hand at another serenade.

Jaune: Really?

Weiss: You know I like music. And I have a collection of instruments back home. Perhaps we could put on our own little duet. You can… you can grab one of the guitars, finger a few of my strings.

Thought I'd share a little excerpt from the fanfic I published today, titled "Pastry Pandemonium." I threw a chunk of innuendo in, but that last line is about the most risqué it's gonna get. But I know what the people want, so I added a little arm in arm hand-holding action. You animals!

It's really all fluff and humor for a White Knight date night set in Mantle. 2k+ words, so it's a quick read. I figured it rates K+ on FF.net, so PG if you want to be careful. Originally planned to just make it as another edit, but then I got rather taken with the idea and turned it into a nice little story. I'll come back around to make that edit eventually.

Anyway, here are the links if you're interested in reading:

Weiss now a milf for 5 years she is still tight for jaune.

Whalp!-Whalp!-Whalp!-Whalp!-Whalp!-Whalp!-Whalp!

"Nnngh, Weiss," a naked Jaune Arc grunts as he hammers his bare hips against his wife's ass cheeks. "Fuck! Still tight after four kids!"

"Unngh!! Jaune!!" The white-haired fencer gasps, feeling her husband's manhood pumping in and out of her slit. "Haaaahhh!! Don't stop--Oooh! Don't fucking stoooop~!!!"

This time, I made a cover for chapter 14, go check it out!

[chaoticevilspacewitch]

From my awesome friend @dae-stuff, I'm so happy to present the cover piece for my latest RWBY fic fixation, We May Fall!

When Weiss's secret faunus heritage comes out in one wild night, Team RWBY is linked together like never before in a way that could change the fate of Remnant.

Got to doodling last night, and decided to do some “cover art” for my fic. I wanted to go for a dime-store paperback kind of vibe, like one of those $2, 200 page books you find on a display in a pharmacy, written by some author you’ve never heard of, with pages already yellowed from age.

I think I ended up with vaguely Tokyo-Pop obscure manga that you can only ever find two volumes of, but is criminally underrated.

Anyways, here’s this. Enjoy!
