Nora: You know, between Bleiss and Bluby, I'm pretty happy I'm an only child! Wouldn't want a Dark Version of Myself creeping up on me! You don't have a dark twin, do you Fearless Leader?

Jaune: What? Me? NO! HAHAHAH! I Only have Seven Sisters! Nothing about a Half-Sibling AT ALL!

Nora: ... Who said anything about a Half Sibling?

The door breaks open as someone kicks it in. They are a Young man, half an inch taller than Jaune with short, feathery, Jet black hair. He wear a thick, black Leather jacket, Jeans, Heeled boots, and Aviators with a gunmetal scarf around his neck.

???: *swaggering up to and hooking an arm around Jaune* Well Well Well Golden Boy~ Lookin' good for a runt~

Jaune: *removing the man's arm* ... Dawne. How have you been?

Dawne: What? No Love for the Brother, Lil' Bro?

Jaune: You are not even an hour Older than me! And you're not my brother!

Dawne: You're dad and my dad are one in the same~ Just Chill Shortstop!

Jaune: gods give me patience.

Dawne: What? That confident in your strength? And you say I have an Ego!

Jaune: If the gods gave me Strength, you'd be in the hospital.

Dawne: Ah Man, Don't be like that! 'Sides, a little birdie told me you're in a with a lot of hot broads~

Jaune: ... Dawne, listen to me, and listen to me well.

Jaune: If you do anything to my friends that they don't like, they will only get the chance to kill you if I don't end you first.

Dawne: ...

Dawne: *Looking over his sunglasses, dark brown eyes shining* Damn. You're serious.

Dawne: Fine. Your friends are off limits. That list can't be too long.

Nora: Uh, Hi, Hello! he's not lying, Most of us will break your legs if you try anything! Who are you and why are you here?

Dawne: I'm-

Jaune: This is Dawne Angeles, My half brother. My parents had a threesome, and nine months later the two of us were born to separate mothers. He's been a pain in my butt my whole life. As for why he's here ...

Jaune: Why are you here?

Dawne: Transferred from Haven! The other half of my team should be here Soon~

Jaune: Other half?

???: Hello.

J+N: AH!

A young woman with shoulder length teal hair, roughly Nora's height gingerly steps in. She's wearing a full, fancy, modest (In terms of visible skin) Victorian maid's outfit. The long skirt swished just enough to see the high heels she wore.

???: *curtsying* My apologies for frightening you. My name is Eren Jötunn.

Eren: I am the second of our team, and I would like to apologize for the roughness my teammate is displaying and speaking with, though i have been told that that is often how sibling treat each other, in which case you may ignore my apology.

Eren: Mister Angeles, please join me in the walk to the Airship Docks. I'm certain our Partners will be here shortly.

Dawne: Hey frostbite, we don't need to worry, They'll send us a message-

Eren: *Stamps the ground, standing tall* Mister Angeles, I would suggest That you join me in the walk to the Airship docks.

Dawne: ... *sigh* Fine. *pats Jaune on the shoulder* See you 'round, golden boy.

Jaune: Yeah, Yeah, Whatever.

Jaune: I'm glad that maid-girl swung by. She seems chill.

Jaune: Nora?

Nora: She Looked like my mom.

Jaune: What?

Nora: I- I look like my mom, but she looks like my mom too.

Jaune: ... Oh Crabapples.

~~~~~

Dawne has a Greatsword-Battlerifle called "Horizon Line", and Eren fights with a Longbow, coating her Arrows in dust, and a Shortsword on her side.

Eren's Semblance "Thermal Dynamo" Allows her to suck the heat out of air (or thing she's touching) and use it to boost her combat prowess. This is extremely taxing and makes the air around her much, MUCH Colder.

I have no ideas for the other half of Anti-Jnpr.

[rwby-encrusted-blog]

I've made a post about Counter-Jaune and Counter-Nora.

Dawne Angeles, Jaune's Half brother-from-another-mother (Jaune's parents has a threesome), is a fast-talking womanizer with more Bravado than sense, and Pride more easily bruised than a Banana. He is a terribly sore loser, and a bit of a coward. He is, however, an INCREDIBLY Skilled Fighter, and His Semblance boosts his skills and Aura durability based on how many people nearby are his allies. Unfortunately for him, he needs to learn to respect others more to make full use of it.

Not Crude and Crass like Bleiss, more just Annoying and Cocky and acts like he's Hot-Shit. Like Mercury.

He's got Black Hair, amber/brown eyes, wears Aviators, Black Leather 'armor' (Jacket) black jeans, and leather boots (he will claim it is real leather. It is unclear if that is the truth.)

Eren Jotunn is Nora's twin, separated from her at birth. Raised by their father, she is soft-spoken, demure, and speaks plainly and clearly. It isn't difficult to annoy her, but if you enrage her ... Hell hath no fury like this woman scorned, as she is empowered by the Flames until she draws all it's heat and freezes it over.

She has Mid-back Length Teal Hair in a ponytail, but other than that, all physical features of her body are exactly like Nora's.

She wears a Fancy Victorian Maid's outfit, far more Modest than Nora's outfit with a full length skirt, and very little exposed skin.

Her semblance, Endothermic Dynamo, allows her to draw the heat out of the air/nearby objects and empower herself with it.

I'm gonna need more details because I never heard of a Rang.

I don't know if it's the original guy who made Bleiss, but basically the same way Bleiss is contrast personality wise to Weiss there are palatte swapped double for each member of RWBY.

Obviously Wake who is a Uncle Ruckus-like self hating raciest.

Rang who unlike the hit fist ask questions later, brawler always willing to act recklessly and violently and look sexy while doing it. Rang is played off as reserved, moral and strict.

And then there's Bluby who to my understanding it just depressed Ruby.

FUCK I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING THAT WILL FINALLY PROVE THAT ZEKE IS ODIN AND NOT EREN

Now HEAR ME OUT I'm not hating on those who believe odin is eren but I have something I think will ATLEAST be interesting to y'all.

So you know how ymir had 3 daughters, who ate her and got 3 of the powers of her titan? (At least I assume they each got three of the powers since 9÷3=3 but who knows) OKAY well in norse myth ymir was the first frost giant and had a ton of kids, but I'm going to say that sina, rose, and maria arent supposed to symbolize ANY of Norse Ymir's children. I'm going to say they symbolize Odin, Vili, and Vé! These are the three gods who killed ymir and made midgard with his remains.

I know you may be thinking "But Pastel, didnt you just say that zeke is odin? How could one of the daughters be odin but also zeke is too?" And I understand where that thought is coming from, but AOT isnt a hard reboot (sorry I cant think of any better term for it) of Norse myth. It's full of symbolism and allegories to norse myth too get across the same overall story, but isn't norse myth. Kinda like the polar opposite of Marvel Norse myth (which takes a bunch of names and shit and throw them on to their own characters) AOT is more like... norse myth but edited slightly so some of the characters can be basically who they are in myths, others are just taking the plot place of a character but is a different character, and others are just symbolic representations of a character. (Like how erens founding titan is jormungandr, 'the snake so large it circles midgard and bites it's own tail') ANYWAY IM GETTING OFF TRACK but the point is in this case the daughters arent taking the place of the character, but are in way? They are taking up the place of the plot point. I'm bad at words if you couldnt already tell but I'm trying.

Anyway back to my main point. Sina, rose, and maria are all ancestors of the royal family(or atleast one of them is) which in this case makes them Æsir and NOT jotunns, despite having the power of a jotunn/titan shifter. (Like how Narfi and Nari are Æsir and not Jotunns despite Loki being their father, jotunns didnt really have any rights to their children if they had any with æsir) Anyway my point to alllll this is that zeke, and descendant of the royal family, would be an Æsir, not a jotunn. Odin is an Æsir, and Loki is a jotunn. Making Zeke Odin, and not Loki.

Maybe some other day I'll go over how Ymir isn't really viewed as a person and some other reasons why I think eren is loki, but now I made myself too excited to write anymore. If yall disagree dont be afraid to respond! Just keep it civil because in the end we all just love the same manga and love norse myth.

[jeanandthedreamofhorses]

Oh no. Please not the Norse comparison because if Hange is Odin, then she and the rest of the scouts will be the equivalent of Asgard. They will try to preserve the present world (The current status quo?) but fail because Ragnarok is inevitable. In other words, they're fucked no matter what. Nooo...

Oh, I definitely think the status quo is fucked. A new world will assuredly be born out of the old world, but take comfort in the fact that it’s a better one.

Now do I see / the earth anewRise all green / from the waves again;The cataracts fall, / and the eagle flies,And fish he catches / beneath the cliffs. 

- Völuspá

In my mind this is the post-whatever-Zeke-and-Eren-do world. Probably a Rumbling. Like Ragnarok, it would be an act of cataclysmic chaos that makes way for a new beginning.

If Isayama goes for a direct parallel, though, it does mean a large portion of surviving characters are screwed. Marley will be screwed too, mind, as the giants were slaughtered as much as the gods were. No mention is made of whether any giants survived Ragnarok in the old texts, but at least some of the gods definitely did - some, like Baldr, are even resurrected. 

Resurrections have been introduced to the manga recently and, while I would encourage people not to get their hopes up, the possibility does exist for shifters at least.

The parallel between the Æsir and the Jotunn with Eldia and Marley is quite fitting, as most scholars agree that the strife between gods and giants is not a battle of good and evil, but just of two different warring tribes. 

However, there is confusion over which side is which - Hange parallels Odin, but the Eldian ability to transform into titans surely makes them the ‘giants’. This only matches the crossover in Norse mythology, however: Odin’s mother was a giant, as was Loki’s, and many of the gods take giantess wives. Just so are Marley’s greatest weapons Eldians themselves. This ambiguity, of course, is also a major part of SNK’s themes.

Any thoughts on counter JNPR as faunus? Maybe rival species.

Well let's go one by one.

Nora is Generally a Bear Faunus, I always imagine either a Brown Bear or Sun Bear, and Eren, being a twin sister separated at birth, would also have to be a Bear. I would say Eren is likely either a Black or Polar Bear faunus.

If We're going Shark!faunus Jaune, then Dawne would be a Dolphin. If we're going Dog!Faunus Jaune, Dawne would be either a Wolf or a Big Cat like a Lion, which may seem like weird choices, but Dawne would call himself an alpha male if he thought he could Pull Tail (Metaphorically) with it, and he has a LOT of Pride. and also if he's a lion, then it's the Cats v Dogs thing.

Cadmine would be Coyote. Pyrrha's usually a Fox, so Cadmine would be Coyote. Honestly even Human Cadmine would laugh like a coyote. And, despite Acting like a dumbass, Cadmine is fairly wise. Usually. And that's a very big USUALLY, because when she's dumb, she's fucking Dumb.

With Zhe it's like Dawne, it depends on what the OG is as a faunus. If it's Frog Ren, Zhe's a Salamander. If it's Snake Ren, Zhe's a either a Horned Lizard or a Monitor Lizard of some kind.

To Condense it:

Eren - Black/Polar bear to Nora's Brown/Sun Bear

Dawne - Dolphin or Big cat to Jaune's Shark/Dog

Cadmine - Coyote to Pyrrha's Fox

Zhe - Salamander or monitor lizard to Ren's Frog/Snake.

Ren: *Getting Tea out* Hello Eren.

Eren: *Putting a kettle on* Greetings Mister Ren. Are you also preparing refreshments for your team?

Ren: They have refused everytime I have offered, but they are free to have some if they so choose. What are you preparing?

Eren: Earl Grey with some Scones.

Ren: Milk?

Eren: Oh, no! Cream is available, but I am not one for diluting the pleasant, smooth taste of tea. I would also have bakes Scones, but the kitchens require restocking, though it is my fault for not assuring that I would have what I need for the best service possible. What are you having?

Ren: Green Tea.

Eren: Ah~ Always an excellent choice~

Yang: *Walks in, Pours herself a glass of iced tea* Hey Guys!

Yang: *Pours sugar into her glass* What are you up to?

Cadmine:Oh god, Eren texted you ��hi.’’ punctuation only means one thing, Dawne. She's mad at you.

Dawne: No, it's Eren. She's just being gramatically correct!

~Meanwhile~

Eren: And then I used a period so they'd know that I'm mad at them.

Zhe: A period doesn't say 'I'm mad', it says 'you're dead to me'.

Eren: I stand by my choice.

JNPR X JACC

(Minus Incest)

~~~~~

Jaune x Eren - StormCloak

In reference to the faction from Skyrim; Winterhold (Eren is based on Frost Giants; Winter-> Frost) is aligned with the Stormcloaks; the White-Gold Concordant (Jaune's colors) is considered Blasphemous (Joan of Arc was burned for Heresy)

Also, I thought Someone just got shot with an arrow, but that must've been the wind. (Eren is a stealth archer)

Jaune x Caiji Zhe - Youxia

Youxia is an ancient Chinese Warrior Folk Hero literally meaning "Wandering Vigilante" but is commonly translated to "Knight-Errant"

Jaune x Cadmine - Arkonaut, My Dress-Up Hunter

It sounds like "Arkos-Not" because, it isn't, but also "Argonaut" which classically means a band of heroes in greek mythology, and these two are Heroes to Pyrrha.

You could also call it My Dress-Up Hunter, because Marin Kitagawa and Wakana Gojo's dynamic fits them fairly well.

~~~~~

Nora x Dawne Angeles: Sailor's Warning

"Red Sky at Night, Sailor's delight, Red sky at morning, Sailor's warning"

Dawn is in the morning, and Nora is Red/pink.

Nora x Caiji Zhe: ZheNora

Renora but with Zhe instead of Ren

Nora x Cadmine: Chaos Incarnate, Pinkthings

Cadmine's Semblance is chaos, and Nora is Chaos.

Pink.

~~~~~

Pyrrha x Eren: Life of Service

Pyrrha gave her life in service of the people of Vale, Eren expects to do much the same.

Pyrrha x Dawne: Electrum, Top Tier, Ankos

Electrum is an alloy of Silver and Gold - the metals commonly used in Second and First place trophies respectively.

They are also the Best of the Best of their generation of hunters

Ankos; a portmanteau of Angeles and Nikos, their last names, not unlike Arkos.

Pyrrha x Caiji Zhe: Aronia

Aronia Berries grow in Greece.

Pyrrha x Cadmine: Opposites Attract, Historically Friends, Greco-Roman

Opposites Attract is a common phrase with romantic relationships, and Pyrrha's whole semblance is about Attraction.

Historical Friendships is often used to mock Historians for not declaring two people of the same sex as being "in love"

Greco-Roman; relating to the ancient Greeks and Romans.

~~~~~

Ren x Eren: Reren, ErRen

Both are portmanteaus of Ren and Eren

Ren x Dawne: Serene Morning

Dawn -> morning. Morning are generally pretty Calm.

Ren x Caiji Zhe: Hunt and Gather

Their names literally mean "Hunter" and "Gatherer"

Ren x Cadmine: Emotional Spectrum

Cadmine is sort of a rainbow of colors and very Loud with her emotions while Ren ... Isn't?

That's all I got.

[rwby-encrusted-blog]

I DO agree that would be perfect for Cadmine, but it's such an odd animal for faunus parts. Would you do the pleopods (those fuzzy limbs for swimming), the antennules (antennae), the carapace (scales), the maxilipeds (those punchy arms)?

now That is a damn good question.

~~~~~

Cadmine: Whoa~ That's so pretty~

Eren: ... Uh, Miss Ittoras, there's nothing on the canvas ...

Cadmine: What?

Peacock Mantis Shrimp have Sixteen Photoreceptors, a greater amount than literally anything on the planet.

~~~~~

Dawne: Hey Cadmine, what's the forecast?

Cadmine: ... It's going to rain today, Someone's microwaving, like, Hyper-Heat Curry, your cologne is reaching the end of it's shelf life - *Dodges a sock Dawne threw at her with out looking* And someone is using gravity dust on the floor below us.

Antennules function in olfaction; non-olfactory chemoreception; mechanoreception, including detecting hydrodynamic, tactile, and proprioceptive cues

~~~~~

Someone: *Tries to stab Cadmine with her armor off*

Cadmine: OW! The Hell, Bitch? Back the Fuck Off!

carapaces are sensitive - animals can feel what's going on when to touch them, even if it's not painful.

~~~~~

Jerk: Hey Girly, If you think you're so tough, then take the first swing! Just make it count, ';cause you won't get a sec-

*CRUNCH*

Cadmine: *Waving the pain out of her hand*

The Peacock mantis shrimp can punch with the force of a .22 caliber bullet. the Shell on it's dactyl claws have unique three-way layering that allow them to survive the recoil.

Eren: Mister Angeles? May I have your attention?

Dawne: *Bopping with his earbuds in* Can I bite you? I need to-

Eren: Dawne?

Dawne: "Stop it I'm not a toy!" So says the naughty boy-

Eren: *Reaching out to touch his shoulder* DAWNE!

Dawne: *Happens to side-step it* We'll take it To the limit, Till I spit and cry! We Can take It further tonight!

Eren: ...

Eren: *Stomps on his foot*

Dawne: BY THE FUCk- OW!

Dawne: WHO- uuuhhhh ....

Eren: *Fuming*

Dawne: How much of that did you see?

Eren: Alway be aware of your surroundings, in case someone is attempting to get your attention, or if someone or something attacks you.

Eren: Or else, like Vampire, You won't see daylight again.

Eren: I Need to know where Zhe stashed his Chocolates. The physicians stated he must watch his sugar intake and I intend to ensure he does.

Dawne: ... It's hidden in his mattress.

Eren: *Moving to remove the offending confections*

Dawne: ... You're not gonna tell anyone about this, right?

Eren: So long as your shame grants me power over you.

Dawne: Fuck.

Eren: *Shoots him a look*

Dawne: Fudge?

Eren: Correct.

[rwby-encrusted-blog]

Could we possibly plez get faunus facts for Polar Bear Eren, Dolphin Dawne, Coyote Cadmine, and Salamander Zhe please?

???: Do you have the targets in sight?

Eren: Yes Father.

???: Then Lease your arrow.

~~~~~

A Younger General Ironwood: What do you mean a whole squad went down! And to Arrows!?!?

Lackey: Sir Yes Sir! That is what the investigation reported!

Polar Bears are some of the few Animals that actively hunt Humans. It is required that you change your routine every single day when in their territory.

Cadmine: *Freezes the ground with her semblance, slips and falls*

Dawne: *Sliding slowly around*

Zhe: *Clinging to a tree so his feet don't freeze*

Eren: *Walking normally, but quote irritated*

Polar Bear paws are extremely wide, and their pads are covered in papillae to grip smooth ice better.

~~~~~

Cadmine: Eren take a Chill Pill! Like, literally take a chill pill

Eren: Ahm' F-fine ...

Zhe: You're sweating like a pig! stop using your semblance so much!

Eren: I-I can hannnndlle myself-f.

Polar bears suffer from overheating more than the cold. Because of this, they may only move quickly in short bursts.

~~~~~

Dawne: *Horking down food*

Zhe: I'm shocked you can eat so Much! It's like you've got two stomachs!

Dawne: *With his mouth full*... Yeah?

Dolphins have two stomachs, one for digestion, one for storage.

~~~~

Pyrrha: Thank you for all your help Dawne!

Dawne: *Has done literally nothing* ... You're Welcome.

The Greeks invariably saw Dolphins as Helpers of human kind.

~~~~~

Velvet: Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched?

Cadmine: *hiding in a bush, licking her lips*

Coyotes eat many 'pest' species, including rabbits that are the largest competitors for commercial cattle's natural grass foodstuffs.

~~~~~

Ruby: HEY! WHO STOLE MY STRAWBERRIES!

Cadmine: I'm super Sorry! I meant to go out and buy more- I totally did, even! But Strawberries are just too good to resist, Gurl!

Coyotes are omnivorous.

~~~~~

Cadmine: *Poking Zhe in the chest* Hey you've got something on your shirt.

Zhe: *Looks down*

Cadmine: *Flicks him*

One mythological/Religious view of coyotes was that of a trickster being.

~And For Zhe, I've decided to go with monitor Lizards~

Cadmine: How much money do you have?

Zhe: *pulling out lien cards* Uh ... One, Two, Three, Four, five, six .... Uh ... Uhhh

Rock monitor lizards are able to distinguish snails and rock in numbers up to six! This is very impressive for a Lizard.

~~~~~

Zhe: *Making out with someone. It is getting STEAMY*

In parts of Malaysia and India Monitor lizard Tongues (And livers) are considered Aphrodisiacs when eaten.

~~~~~

Zhe: ALRIGHT TEAM! LET'S MOVE OUT!

Komodo dragons hunt in groups. This is highly unique and exceptional for Reptiles.

[rwby-encrusted-blog]

I'd very much like to know more about Eren, Dawne, Cadmine, and Zhe. Allusions? Team dynamics? How they became a team? Etc.

Eren sounds like Nora backwards - Aron - and Jotunn, Eren's last name, is the name of the Frost Giants in norse mythology - Valkyrie vs Frost Giant - Eren's semblance is a reflection of the Frost and Nora's semblance, with a hint of backstory meaning - She suck the heat out, causing everyone else to be cold, and uses the heat to empower herself.

Her outift and Coloration - modest, fancy, muted cool tones - is meant to oppose Nora - warm, vibrant, pink and orange, and messy.

~~~~~

Dawne rhymes with jaune, Jaune is yellow and Sunny, while Dawne is darker. Like the Dawne.

Jaune is French, Angeles (Dawne's last name) is Spanish, meaning Angel, there's Arc-Angel kinda deal.

His weapon is a reflection of Jaunes- no shield, but it's also a gun.

He has no specific allusion, just meant to mirror jaune.

Jaune's a Golden Boy, Dawne's a Bad Boy.

~~~~~

Cadmine's name come from Cadmean, Ittoras from "Defeat of the State" in Greek - Pyrrha Nikos mean "Pyrrhic Victory Of the People" - A Cadmean and a Pyrrhic Victory are synonymous, but to be opposing, Cadmine's last name means defeat - so a Cadmine Defeat might be something like a Sacrifice or a feint, letting something bad happens to get ahead, rather than forcing something good to happen at far too much of a cost.

Cadmine is colorful, vibrant, cobalts and neons - bright, but cool colors - and personality wise she's something of a Valley Girl.

Pyrrha is soft spoken, Cadmine is loud, Pyrrha is warm autumnal colors, Cadmine is vibrant spring colors, Pyrrha is Greek, Cadmine is roman.

Cadmine is the Brazilian Miku to Pyrrha's normal Miku. She's meant to have a Gyaru/Ganguro sort of vibe - a delinquent, loudmouthed, frivolous girl. She makes crude and sexual gestures, she's hot and she flaunts it. She's just about everything Pyrrha isn't.

Cadmine is Wild. Free. She's allowed to be a dumbass, to do the wrong thing - Pyrrha's opposite.

They're each other's respite from their reputations.

Caiji Zhe means Gatherer. Lie Ren means Hunter. Zhe is described as having blonde hair, and scruffy clothes - Caiji is meant to be representative of a Chinese Delinquent.

He's loud and talks fast, he's only as big as Ren but takes up a lot more space. His semblance is also meant to be opposite of Ren's - Tranquility hushes emotions in a very, very small area, personal to Ren, while Embrittle is very Physical, and targeted at someone else.

Semblances are tied to personality. For Dawne, it's easy to see he has a deep need to be appreciated. But what about Eren, Zhe, and Cadmine? For someone who wants to be so accommodating, Eren's semblance can sure make it difficult to be too close to her. Zhe's semblance just seems like he wants to hurt people. And Cadmine's semblance just screams chaos, indecision, and dangerously high energy.

Eren Jotunn, daughter of Ymir Jotunn and an unnamed woman, and sister to a girl she never met.

The reason the woman is unnamed, and her sister unmet is because her mother stole her sister and ran. Ran far and away. Ymir only managed to 'save' Eren by sheer luck.

Her Father left alone with his only daughter, raised her to be every that woman wasn't.

To be a Proper Lady.

Thoughtful. Kind. Generous. Quiet.

A Hard worker. Someone who accomplish tasks and listen follow through on instructions. One Who never talked back, or questioned those above.

A girl who kept her head down, eyes forward, chin up, and mouth shut to anyone except those beneath her.

Eren would say that her father has his own forms of affection.

She's learned to squeeze every last drop of warmth from it.

Eren would say her father is strict.

At best, she learned to cool his irritation down.

At least, She learned to use all the searing rage of her failures to make herself strong enough to accomplish the next task.

Eren would say she's fine with the cold.

Her bedroom often was uncomfortably so.

Eren would say can handle everything thrown at her.

She can.

For now.

But every fire burns out. How much more of herself can she burn to keep moving forward?

"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine! I just need but a moment to rest!" Eren Jotunn, attempting to dissuade the medic's worries.

Caiji Zhe grew up in one of the less safe villages in Mistral, and was an outcast as a kid.

He was gullible, weird, had a hard time understanding metaphor and turns of phrase.

Most people wouldn't mind him. He was a sweet kid, kind and willing to help (try to help at least.) Zhe was content to just go about, picking berries and fruits for people, helping them do odd jobs

But other People would pick on him. Make him feel weak, small.

At some point he got tired of it.

Zhe is a good person through and through.

Hell fears the good man gone to war.

Everyone told Zhe he was weak? Soft? Okay. That's Fine. Whatever.

You make fun of him for it?

How about you learn what weakness is.

One time went too far, one day there was finally the straw that broke the camel's back and Zhe ...

Unloaded.

It was a simple day, he was helping a stall stack newspapers when they came over.

They tore the papers out of his hands, threw them around, pushed him over, and he'd had enough.

He stood up, raised a fist, and punched one of the bullies square in the face, their nose broken instantly, like it was made of stained glass.

The others didn't fair much better despite the size and weight differences.

At the end of it, three people had several fractures, broken bones, internal bleeding, and two had concussions.

He didn't go overboard, he stopped when they stopped, but Zhe was no longer seen as a sweet little kid.

People avoided him more than ever. No more bullying, but also a lot less people willing to simply exists around him. it Was a small village, and word traveled fast.

He was still Caiji Zhe, weird and sweet. People just saw him differently now.

Dangerous. Someone not to be messed with.

Sometimes, it's not enough to get someone to help you. Sometimes you can't just make yourself invisible.

Sometimes you just gotta punch a shark in the snout to make it back off.

"I dunno. The best way to end a fight is as fast and painless - for 'you' anyway - as possible." Caiji Zhe when asked about his choice in weaponry.

Cadmine had always defied the expectations put on her.

Never purposely, mind you, but because she did what she wanted, and did it with all her heart.

When she was born, she was born sick. The Doctors said she wasn't likely to make it past three months.

Her first birthday was a celebration unlike any her parents threw before.

In school she struggled to pay attention and answer questions in class, disrupting the teachers fairly often. Most of them expected her to fail and flunk out.

She aced every test, every project, every assignment. It was hard, she had to really focus up to do it, but she managed it.

The one time she didn't succeed in all accounts was with a particularly crotchety teacher, who she had a serious issue with, and she checked every assignment against her classmates, and she'd get every answer right, and whatever wasn't an outright lie of failure, it was a minor technicality, more of an opinion on how she did it than the actual answer itself.

She fought that teacher tooth and nail, the whole class did, and at some point the teacher was discovered to be "cheating" in his own way, and was outright targeting Cadmine to fail her, alongside another student named Pyrrha Nikos.

That guy got fired, and the two became friends.

When she announced she was going to be a Huntress people didn't know what to expect.

She was still flippant, aloof, silly, but she'd made it this far with flying colors! There were those that hated her for being so free, and people still thought she was odd, but Pyrrha was right by her side!

And they fought well, and grew to be some of the best fighters of their year.

At least until Semblances started springing up.

Cadmine's came in the latest.

Some people expected her semblance to be something about damage reductions, others thought she'd get a mobility semblance, more still believed she'd get an overpowering semblance, something that would act like Burn or Moonslice.

And, in a way, all of them were right.

Cadmine's Semblance can do all of those things. She can reduce damage, deal more damage, move faster and teleport.

But in that way, defied all of what they thought she'd get, because she got it all.

Handling it requires her to buckle down, and focus up.

She can, but it takes a LOT out of her.

She's fine with how weird it gets, she's adaptable!

Yeah it can make it hard to fight alongside others, but if they can't handle her, then they don't deserve to be her teammates, or her friends!

She misses Pyrrha. a LOT.

"She's the only Bad Bitch who can Handle me~" - Cadmine Ittoras, when being interviewed about her relationship with Pyrrha Nikos.

If Oobleck did his whole "why do you want to be a hunter" question, what would be the responses from Counter-JNPR?

Let me ... Try something.

???: Wowee JotunN! These Tacos are amazin'! How'd you make sometin' so good way out here!

Eren: *Bowing* It is no problem at all, Professor Blazing, simply a necessity for someone of my skill and standing, and it was not all me. Your skill with your semblance assisted greatly.

???: Ah! Call me Dave! Or Crazy Dave like my friends!

Eren: Uhm. Would Professor Dave suffice? It would feel unnatural to refer to you so ... casually.

Prof. Dave: Ah, 'Spose so!

Eren: Also, If I may inquire, why do your friends refer to you as "Crazy" Dave?

Prof. Dave: 'Cause a lotta 'em are Boring- Well, a lotta the old ones way back in Atlas!

Eren: Atlas?

Prof. Dave: hah! Yeah! I was one of the top Engineers, but it was so boring and my plants couldn't grow to well, so I left! My Pals Called me weird and wild, and crazy, and compared to them? YEah I am!

Prof. Dave: And more than that? I'm a Huntsman!

Eren: ... Yes you are?

Prof. Dave: Eh, All 'those guys were content to sit behind a desk and test with all the funding, but so few of them ever went out in the field - and those that did always wanted to come right back inside!

Prof. Dave: But me? I started learnin' tah engineer 'cause I wanted to learn more 'bout the world and all the things in it! I mean, if Atlas stood 'cause of the Solitas Tundra, then how else could we use nature to our advantage! and so I started learnin' about Plants, and how to grow them! Healthy food, tasty food, medicinal stuffs, and combined it with my knowledge o' machinery!

Prof. Dave: From there I couldn't just ... sit back and let other just stay out there! Our ability to learn and adapt is our Greatest Strength! So I teach others how to learn and adapt! Give 'em a foundation to build and grow in their own way, and survive!

Prof. Dave: So ... Why'd you start Huntin'?

Eren: Because there was nothing else for me to do. My life is one of service, and if I am to be expected to be the Best attendant I can be, then know how to defend my Master, Mistress, or whomever else I am assigned to care for. I have mastered many abilities of Culinary, Survival, Medical, Historical, and Confrontation diffusion tactics and skills. All that is left is for me to become a great Martialist.

Eren: To put it plainly; I do nothing else, because there is nothing else for me to do.

Prof. Dave: Hmm.

~~~~~

Prof. Dave: Why're you out here? What's your reason to fight?

Dawne: The Glory of it! I was one of the best tournament fighters of my years, and now I get to be a hero to people to! All those adoring fans, all the people staring up at me, knowing that I'm strong enough to cut down whatever's scaring them! Heh! That'll everyone who thought bad of me just how wrong they were!

Prof. Dave: Big, Strong, and brave?

Dawne: Absolutely! Nothing can get past me!

Prof. Dave: Wadda 'bout that there Beowolf?

Dawne: WHERE?!?!?

Prof. Dave: HAH! AHHAHAHAH!

Dawne: Hey now! That's not funny!

~~~~~

Cadmine: I wanna find my people, you feel me?

Prof. Dave: Don't quite think I do.

Cadmine: Ugh, 'course you don't. Okay, so, like, A lotta people don't like me, 'Cause they think I'm "Weird" and "annoying" and people who know what my semblance is think I'm "Dangerous" or "Unstable" or Some shit like that. Hell, some bitches act like I'm Dumb or Stupid just because I talk differently from them, like, WHo the fuck asked you bitch! I'm Just fuckin' talking, if you don't like it, leave!

Prof. Dave: ... I think I'm startin' to "Feel" you! All the other folks' just don't get us! We Talk different, act different, but we're the one's out here makin' a difference!

Cadmine: Totally! Like My Girl Pyrrha! She's seen by a lot as just a tournament fighter, but they dunno the girl behind the Champion! No one knows the Girl that I am 'cuz they only take me at the surface!

Cadmine: I mean, At some point I gotta come across someone that's gonna hear me out!

Cadmine: Hell, this Team ...

Cadmine: They're almost what I think I need, Ya know? I mean, like, I'll save anyone, but It'd be nice to have a home someday! You know?

Prof. Dave: Heh. Yeah. I know.

~~~~~

Zhe: I ... Can't say. No reason not to I guess! Well, I guess I'm risking my life everyday, but we all die someday! Might as well do what I can to make everyone safer! It's outside, you get to travel, meet people, shoot BIG Guns!

Prof. Dave: That's it?

Zhe: Yeah! Just wound up on this path one day, and haven't had a strong enough reason to hop off! There's nothing else for me right now, but I'm happy! Why fix what ain't broke!
