Bumbleby Week: Day 4 - Cuddly Bees

RWBY: (out on a mission in the Vacuan desert - nighttime)

Ruby: (snoring)

Blake: (shivering in her sleeping bag)

Yang: You cold, babe?

Blake: (teeth chattering) Just a bit.

Weiss: Blake, your teeth sound like they're tap dancing.

Blake: I didn't know deserts went from boiling hot to freezing overnight!

Yang: Alright. Alright. I got a solution. (Unzips her and Blake’s sleeping bag)

Blake: Yaaaaang! Why?!

Yang: (interlocks the zippers of their sleeping bags and makes a giant sleeping sack. Once she's done, she cuddles up to Blake and holds her close) Better?

Blake: (blushing and very much enjoying being little spoon) Better.

You got any fic recs

This is a tricky one, because while there are plenty of fics I love I don't know if there's any that you haven't already read. Some things I could rec I'm pretty sure you have read, and might well rec to me if I asked. With anything I rec that could well be the case, I think you've been reading RWBY fic much longer than I have unless I'm much mistaken.

It's also fic I haven't commented on yet, as that unfortunately goes for most of what I've read. Most of my time reading RWBY fic has been spent deep in lurkdom. Depression's a bitch. I'm a bit better now though, and trying to gradually go back and leave some love.

Just about everything I rec is probably Bumbleby, as that's mostly what I read.

Hold Me Tight or Don't by dandelionsknight, rated M. Contains smut. This takes place in Volume 7, and is something I find I keep going back to reread. It's not canon compliant anymore, but fic doesn't need to be to be good.

Team RWBY goes rogue AU series by Wolfcreations21, first fic rated M, second rated E and contains smut. Yang vs Raven in the first, some rather epic combat I wish I had the skill to write, and the Bees' first time together in the second. I'm pretty sure you've probably already read this as you asked me if I'd read something else by the same writer.

There's many more I could rec, but that's three for now.

My phone went bye-bye. It is dead, so I will be relying on my laptop. Also, reading fanfic on a laptop is sooo freaking annoying. How do some of yall do it!

Bumbleby Week 2023 Day 1, Sept. 11th: Faunus Princess & Human Partner

[bumblebyweek-blog]

The date has been chosen!

First of all, thank you all for voting and sending your insights!

Second, the winner is September! So, trying to keep everything in consideration, the chosen week is the one from 11th to 18th of September!

Now, what's next? The prompts!

We will be accepting prompt suggestions until the end of next week (Sunday 9th), and after that we will be making the pool to choose them. We will include last year's suggestions that didn't make it in the week as well.

Also, still like last year, we will keep the Bonus/VA Apreciation Day as default and two prompts will be personally chosen by us mods. The last four will be up to the vote! In case you weren't here last time, this decision was made to leave people freedom to choose but also avoid complete fan favorites domination of all the prompts. Just to spice things up a bit, you know?

I think that'd be all. Thanks again and see you later!

Bumbleby Week 2023: Belated Day 2 - Sacrifice

Teams RWBY, JNR, CVFY, and SSSN are standing in Headmaster Theodore's office with Qrow, Raven, Winter, and Ozcar.

Theodore: Thank you all for coming at such short notice. We've just received a report that there's a wall of Grimm moving across the desert towards the city. They're expected to be here tomorrow morning.

Qrow: Tomorrow morning?!

Theodore: At the latest...

Ozcar: You've already made a decision on what to do next. I can tell. What is it?

Theodore: (sighs) We need time to evacuate the residents. The only way I can see that working is if we have a security force stationed on the city's outskirts to intercept the wall.

Raven: But.... that's a suicide mission.

Theodore: (silence)

Raven: .......You're looking for volunteers before you order people to die for the city.

Qrow: (slams fists against Theodore's desk) Are you serious?!

Theodore: Look! It's not ideal, but it's the only solution we have!

Everyone: (start arguing and shouting)

Yang: How many people do you need?

Everyone: (silence)

Ruby: Yang?

Weiss: (shocked silence)

Blake: (staring blankly)

Theodore: (stares in surprise) There's a 50% chance for success if we have 100 volunteers.

Qrow: Just call them cattle with how you're sending them out to the slaughter.

Yang: .....I'll do it.

Everyone: (stares at Yang in shock)

Raven: The hell you are.

Yang: You don't get to-

Raven: Not by yourself. Sign me up.

Weiss: Can we maybe take a minute to-

Blake: EXCUSE YOU!!!

Yang: (winces)

Blake: (sets herself firmly in front of Yang so she can't look away) Have you learned absolutely NOTHING from Atlas?! From the vault?!

Yang: Blake...

Blake: We separated during the Mantle-Amity disaster, and I was worried sick about you. You were thrown from the platform, and I thought I lost you forever. (Tearing up angrily) Now you want to throw yourself into a suicide mission?!

Yang: (curls in slightly on herself) Blake...

Blake: Don't! Just... don't.... I need a minute. (Turns and walks out the door)

-Door Slams-

Everyone: (silent)

Weiss: (to Yang) Well?

Yang: Well, what?

Weiss: Stop being a moron and go talk to her!

Yang: She asked for a minute.

Weiss: So you go after her, wait for sixty seconds, then go up to her, throw yourself onto the ground, and beg for forgiveness for being a dumbass!

Yang: (slightly taken aback and looks to Qrow)

Qrow: Don't look at me. My love life hasn't been much outside of a few one night stands.

Yang: (Looks to Raven)

Raven: I'm with the miniature snowman.

Weiss: Hey!

Raven: Go talk things out. No decision will be set until you both come to an agreement you can work with.

Theodore: We don't have time for-

Qrow & Raven: (eyes glint as they draw their swords)

Theodore: (cowers into his seat)

Yang: R-Right! Right! Wish me luck! (Sprints out the door after Blake)

[citadelofmythoughts]

Blake tries to have a quiet evening with a VERY pregnant Yang.

Posting a little early because my birthday is tomorrow and I'm gonna be busy as hell.
