I've not decided yet if I want to play through the next EP with Briana, Grim and Belladonna's future daughter, or with Belladonna. I love them both so much! With Briana I'd have to rush my way through her childhood though, or just make a separate save with a time skip. I'll need to put my thinking witch hat on. Also I found 2 super old pics of Grim and Belladonna and I can't stop laughing at them 💀

RWBY: Grim Tales

Bargain

Blake could only watch in horror as Jaune was stabbed through the heart by Adam's blade. Seconds felt like an eternity as he was pushed to the floor and his once vibrant blue eyes had suddenly turned dull. She screamed out his name, crawling to him in desperation.

Blake: *reaches to Jaune* Jaune! No! Please. *shakes him* You can't do this to me. No. Please no. *cries* Jaune!

Blake looked at Adam and raised her hand. A small, purple coloured magic circle appeared and a panther-like shadow beast emerged, lunging at him. Adam scoffed and simply cut it with his sword. Blake momentarily left Jaune and drew her tantō, whispering a spell to enchant it. It glowed purple and she charged towards him. Her attacks proved fruitless, as Adam's swordplay was devastating, yet refined. Each blow she tried to land was effortless parried. Seeing an opening, he grabbed her by the throat and hoisted her up.

Adam: Did you honestly think that you could beat me with that pathetic excuse for magic?

Blake: Ack! Y-You monster! *stabs Adam's arm*

Adam barely had a reaction, not even a flinch. Instead, black liquid began to seep out of the wound and seemed to shift. It began to crawl up and down his arm, slowly enveloping him until it spread all around his body and transforming into jet black armour. Blake was horrified.

Blake: Adam... what have you done?

Adam: *chuckles* I have surpassed the weakness of humanity. I offered you a share and what did you do? Cast me aside like I was nothing. But I don't need you or the White Fang anymore. I'm part of a new era, one where I'm promised the rightful title of ruler among you and the Faunus.

There were no words left for Blake to say. Her best friend, her brother, was gone. It may have Adam's face and voice, but not his soul. For the first time in her life, she felt truly defeated. Adam grabbed the tantō from his arm and stabbed Blake right in the abdomen.

Blake: AAAAAAGH!!!!

He threw on top of her dying husband and slimy, black wings protruded from the back of his armour. As flew off into the night, Blake reached to Jaune's cheek and stroked it.

Blake: Forgive me, Jaune.

* * *

The voice of Blake was ringing in Jaune's ears. He tried to open his eyes, but he could feel an intense, burning heat that kept them shut. Blake's voice began fading and in its place was a deep, sharp growl.

???: Jaune.

Jaune: Wha? What the-?

???: Jaune Arc.

Jaune: Who are you? What's going on?

???: Open your eyes.

Jaune slowly opened his eyes and found himself in a dark, desolate landscape. Volcanoes were erupting and the sky was a deep red. Surrounding him were all types of Grimm, hungry and itching to kill. Jaune jumped back and tried to reach for his sword. But it wasn't there.

Jaune: What the hell? Where's Crocea Mors?!

???: Even if you had it with you, I doubt you'd be able to fight all of us by yourself.

Jaune turned around and saw a large, indigo dragon-like man sitting atop a black, bony throne. The Grimm growled gently and all bowed their heads to it. Jaune couldn't believe it. He was the presence of the progenitor of Grimm.

Jaune: Y-You're the God of Darkness.

GOD: Indeed I am. Though you'll forgive my curiosity as to why a man of your virtous character ended up here. You're far from perfect, but you hardly belong in the Land of Darkness.

The God of Darkness stood up from his throne and approached the young man. Jaune slowly backed away, terror coursing throughout his body. The dark dragon stared deep into his eyes with intense focus, not even blinking once.

GOD: Oh... now this is interesting. In your heart lies vengeance and a deep desire for bloodshed. Oh we could use that *chuckles* Someone has wronged you.

Jaune: I... I... I remember being stabbed in the heart. By... *gasps* Adam!

GOD: I know him. One of my finest soldiers. Or at least he used to be. *walks to throne* Tell me, boy, how much do you desire Adam's head?

Jaune clenched fists. He thought back to all the times he and Blake were pursued by Adam. Countless deaths of innocents had followed him, including that of the White Fang. To see him betray his own family like that, who raised him, cared for him and taught him the ways of a Magic Knight, made Jaune furious. And now he had taken him from his beloved wife and son. Tears ran down his face.

Jaune: I'll do anything. Anything.

GOD: *smiles* I see. I can offer you a chance at revenge, a chance to see your family again. But, I require something in return. You must serve me. You must become my Grimm Knight, slaughter my enemies and become my weapon! *clenches fist* In exchange, you shall be stronger, faster, more dangerous than you will ever become with your pitiful human magic. Will you do it?

Jaune: I will! Whatever it takes, just promise me that I'll see Blake and Anthony again!

GOD: It shall be done. But swear your loyalty to me first.

Jaune didn't hesitate to bend the knee.

Jaune: I Jaune of House Arc, hereby swear my loyalty to you. I will be your weapon to vanquish all who stand before you. I will be your servant of darkness. I will make Adam pay for what he did to me.

The ground below him cracked and hundreds of small tendrils latched onto him, piercing bits of his skin. Jaune grit his teeth as he tried to bare the pain. The tendrils shifted into dark armour and his chest bore an emblem of a dragon's skull. Jaune's once luminous, blonde hair had now become white as a ghost.

GOD: You now serve me. Rise, Wyvern.

Jaune rose his head and gave a threatening, guttaral roar. His journey to retribution had begun.

[theyaytoast]

I might have fallen for a Reaper. Okay, I totally did. I love Milo Belladonna from the Monster Prom series. They are absolutely perfect. I drew them showing off on the job. Come on! The glow of a soul makes for the perfect selfie lighting!

Signa x Death

“You are not cursed-you are a reaper. You are the night incarnate, the ferrier of souls. You are the bridge between the living and the dead—a caged bird that's ready to fly. So spread your wings, Signa Farrow, because you are limitless. Spread your wings, and oh, how we'll fly.” —Belladonna

Cringetober day 1: heterochromia

Trying my hand at cringetober! None of my ocs really have heterochromia so I got a lil creative. Lil doodle to warm up :3. The one on the left is Henrietta and the one on the right is Frisky!

[cherry-pop-elf]

Every time I hear or see “master of death” Harry Potter I just think. “So you want Billy and Mandy?”

Wheres Grim chasing Harry around like “DIE ALREADY!” With Harry being the sassy bitch he is and just screaming back “MAKE ME!”

Need art of that so bad. Just Grim being so frustrated with ANOTHER sassy child 😭

[caterpillarinacave]

It might just be me, but one thing I’ve noticed about the Jabberwalker is that it seems very, very different from Grim. It’s almost… human like in a way Grim are very much not.

It’s not necessarily the movement or behavior, but more it’s stature. It’s not particularly large, and it has little to no bulk. It’s main power seems to be moving fast, and as far as creatures go it’s not that threatening.

I mean, clearly, it’s intentions aren’t good, but it’s not the Salem style evil that Grim have. The Jabberwalker retreats, thinks for itself, doesn’t seem to be killed easily , is smaller, doesn’t have a prominent mouth, ect ect.

The main thing I’m getting at here is that team RWBY is trained to deal with Grim. That’s why they went to beacon, they’re good at dealing with Grim in particular, and the Jabberwalker isn’t a Grim. It’s a whole different game of cards, one that team RWBY doesn’t know the rules of.

Grim Chances

Darren almost loses another wife too young.

But thankfully, he wins Cassandra's life back, and Kaden Dreamer is born safely! Tragedy avoided!

Mortimer may not be so lucky.

(This was an unexpected occurrence. 😅)

RWBY: Grim Tales

Darkness Within

Cold. Isolated. That's what Ruby felt when she found herself surrounded by pitch black.

Ruby: H-Hello?

She heard a faint hiss as a stream of red light appeared in the distance. Immidiately, Ruby was gripped by fear. She recognised it as the blade of a Sith. The sound of footsteps touched her ears and Ruby backed away. Her heart was thumping and her hands were trembling. The steps were getting louder.

Ruby: *quietly* Get away from me. Please.

Suddenly, everything was silent except for thr humming of the blade. Ruby gasped when she saw the face of her assailant. It was Blake, staring at her with sinister golden eyes. Ruby's breaths slowed and her muscles tensed. From her waist, she drew her own lightsaber and ignited it.

Ruby: YAAAAAH!!!!

Ruby made the first strike, only to have it parried. She staggered, but quickly found her footing and lunged towards her.

SLASH!!!

Ruby: AGGGGGH!!!! AGH! AGHHH!!!

Ruby felt a searing pain run all the down her back. Blake had scarred her. Ruby kept a tight grip on her lightsaber and turned around, raising it for a downward strike.

KSSHH!! KSSHH!! KSSHH!!

Every attack was swiftly blocked and the pain made it harder to for Ruby to keep her stance. She looked at Blake and grit her teeth. She wasn't going to lose. Not this time. Blake was ready to make her move and tried to slash at Ruby's head. However, Ruby managed to deliver a swift counterattack and sliced off her arm. A horrified look appeared on Blake's face and Ruby pierced her heart without a second thought. Silver met gold as Ruby glared deep into Blake's eyes. Strangely, Blake started smile and she slowly reached for Ruby's cheek.

Blake: You're almost ready. *chuckles*

Ruby pulled her lightsaber out of Blake's chest and trembled as the Sith's laughter turned maniacal.

* * *

Ruby's eyes shot wide open and she screamed until her throat burned.

Jaune: *bursts through door* Ruby! Ruby! Calm down, I'm here! *grabs onto her shoulders*

Ruby: *hugs Jaune tightly* J-Jaune! I-It's her! I killed her! I killed her! I-

Jaune: *hugs back*Hey, hey, hey. You're alright, you're safe. Just breathe, okay? Like we practiced. *slow breaths*

Ruby: *slow breaths*

Jaune: That's it.

Ruby: *sighs* I-I saw Blake again. We... were fighting, she injured my back, I- I killed her

But she.... she wouldn't die and then*small tears* she was... laughing.

Jaune: Now, now sweetie. Remember, it was just a dream.

Ruby: *pushes off* But what if it's not? What if it's an omen? That I'm supposed to kill Blake? I.... I haven't had a peaceful sleep in a long time. Everytime I close my eyes, I see her.... *clenches bedsheets*

Jaune: Listen, why don't I put on some tea and talk to Master Ozpin? He can help.

Ruby: You think that will work?

Jaune: If anyone knows the true nature of the Force, it's Master Ozpin. He hasn't steered us wrong before.

Ruby: *chuckles* I guess not.

Jaune: Alright then. Let me get that tea. *walks to the door*

Ruby: Jaune?

Jaune: *turns around* Hm?

Ruby: T-Thank you. *blushes*

Jaune: *smiles* No problem.

Jaune closed the door to Ruby's bedroom and walked to the kitchen. While the tea leaves were brewing, he pulled out his holoprojector and called Master Ozpin.

Jaune: Hello Master. I see you're keeping well.

Ozpin: I am indeed. How are you?

Jaune: I'm very good. I've just about managed to get used to living here. I've even learned how to cook.

Ozpin: Excellent work, and what about Ruby?

Jaune: Oh um... *sighs* she's not coping so well. The nightmares are getting worse.

Ozpin: I see.

Jaune: She's been more scared of herself lately. She's been trying to avoid sleeping altogether and barely touches her lightsaber.

Ozpin: It always starts with fear. That's first step towards the Dark Side.

Jaune: What can we do? Tell me, please! I don't- *shakes* I don't wanna lose her.

Ozpin: She will face Blake again. That is inevitable. But in order to do that, she must first face herself. Take her to the Umbara System.

Jaune: What?! But that planet's strong in the Dark Side! If it already has a grip on her now, then-

Ozpin: *raises hand* Jaune. Calm down. I understand your worry but it is necessary for her to do this. Ignoring it will only be giving into her darkest impulses and it will set her down a path she will not recover from.

Jaune: But- *clenches fist* You're right, Master.

Ozpin: You and I will accompany her to the planet and during the preliminary trials. But the final test is where she will be alone. You and I shall not interfere.

Jaune: Very well, Master. Thank you.

Ozpin: May the Force be with. *holoprojector shuts off*

Jaune took the pot away from the heater and poured the tea into the cups. He took them inside Ruby's room and placed them by her bed. He reached out and touched her hands.

Ruby: Hm? What is it, Jaune?

Jaune: You and I need to have a talk.

* * *

Blake sat in her chamber in a deep meditated state. She had been at this for nearly four days, without touching even a crumb of food or a drop of water. Her nose and ears twitched and her eyes opened up. Taking a deep breath, she stopped meditating and stood up. A small, sly grin formed on her lips. The Force had called to her.

Blake: You can't hide from me, Ruby.
