Ozcar: *pointing at the Arkos Baby* WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S A SORCERER!

G.o.D: I mean he has Magic.

Ozcar: HOW!?! She was born now to Normal Human parents!

G.o.L: You're a wizard

Ozcar: Because the part of me that's magic came from WAY BACK THEN! The only way for this Happen is for him to have been born with Magic, because of magic, or if both Pyrrha and Jaune were magic!

G.o.D.: Maybe he was concieved in the same place as magic? You all have been to many, many places.

Ozcar: Well- Okay, so there was that time near the Vault, in the Vault, And then She died, and He was the Rusted Knight, and then I had to rest the timeline back a bit - so the only time they would have had for it to happen was when they were plunged into the blacksmiths Realm together, at the same time, which would have been, to them, Their Wed-

G.o.L: ...

G.o.D: ...

Ozcar: ... Oh no ...

And uh... Here's one for the God of Darkness

[wu-sisyphus-gang]

God of Darkness: Behold the horror beyond your comprehension!

Jaune:

God of Darkness: Why aren't you trembling in fear?

Jaune: I don't know what I'm looking at.

First drawing of the year, it's the Year of the Dragon! 🐉

And so, what better than Neo playing pretend a little?🍨

[pilot-boi]

So wait what happens on the villain side of things in hares breadth

Pretty much the same stuff as canon, except that the battle on the tower went differently

Cinder is left without an arm AND a leg, as well as her eye. Jaune unlocks his Semblance on the Tower but doesn’t remember how to use it until Haven, so by boosting Pyrrha they’re able to do more damage to her than in canon. (I can get into that in a later post, because I have Thoughts)

But other than that, they don’t know much of the nonsense that’s going on with Jaune being resurrected or any of that stuff. Which is honestly good for them, because if Salem knew there was another “immortal” running around she’d waste no time sending Tyrian to “collect” him as well as Ruby

Salem’s already made truly horrifying Grimm-person hybrids. Can you imagine the nonsense she’d create from a creature of the Ever After?

The villain story doesn’t really change until Haven, when Emerald, Mercury, and Hazel return with news of Ozpin’s new host and his… interesting companion

Salem is incensed

The gods wouldn’t bring back her Ozma, but this boy? This… insignificant speck of a boy? HE is the one worthy of upsetting the gods’ precious balance? The one they cursed her with wretched life for daring to question?

Why was this boy is allowed to return, mere months after her Fall Maiden struck him down, when the death of her Ozma was apparently deemed an acceptable loss?

She broke the world for him

And this boy… from Hazel’s reports he wasn’t brought back whole. He was changed, made more animal. Not human, not Faunus. Horns like the God of Light and righteous anger like the God of Darkness. Lesser than both of them but with pieces of each

Different

“Something entirely new,” Hazel says when she presses him. “I can’t explain it, my Lady. His torso was grafted to the body of a large furry creature, with horns and ears on his head. But it looked… natural. Like he was born that way. Like magic.”

Cinder dissolved the boy entirely, reduced him to ash. At least when Ozma died there was a body to return his soul to. After millennia of the same stories playing out, the same predictable chess moves, anything new is intriguing

There is not enough magic left in the world to bring this boy back, let alone bond his soul to a new body. Ozma’s power is dwindling, and she knows that she was not involved. And as loathe as she is to admit it through her rage, the gods undoubtedly played no part

So who did? Who grafted this boy’s soul to the body of a beast and brought him back from the dead?

It seems a new player has arrived at the board. One that only one person on Remnant has met and died to tell about it. She won’t come this close to claiming her prize only to be thwarted in the eleventh hour

Her Hound may very well have two targets when she arrives in Solitas

if i told you the most problematic characters in rwby looked like this.

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.

He's HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Unfortunately I just came back from the sea, so we'll have to wait for those long walks on the beach. I could stillread him some Schiller though.

Touch of Gray

Jaune: *relaxing on the couch with Pyrrha, gently playing with his hair*

Jaune: …hey Pyr?

Pyrrha: *looks up from her magazine* Hmm? What is it, Jaune?

Jaune: Hypothetically, what would you think if I started going gray as I got older…?

Pyrrha: 🤔

Pyrrha’s Vision of the Future:

Pyrrha: 😍 MMMmmmm…..!

????: …pyrr…

????: …rha…Pyrr…ha!

Jaune: …PYRRHA!!

Pyrrha: AAHH!! I’m sorry!

Jaune: You kinda…spaced out there for a minute, Pyr! Whatcha thinking about?

Pyrrha: *looks away* Oh, nothing~! 😅

Jaune: Now that I’m thinking about it, what if I started going bald like my granddad? That’d be pretty ridiculous! 🥚

Pyrrha: …

Pyrrha: …No. I will fight the universe to stop that horrible future from coming to be.

Jaune: …this conversation took a really unsettling turn. You know I’m kidding, right?

Pyrrha: I will kill the gods for that head of hair. 👿

God of Light/God of Darkness: *just returned, immediately depart Remnant again* NOPE!!!

Round 1

Characters' info under the cut

God of Darkness (wiki)

Domain: Darkness

Propaganda:

I love him

Q (wiki)

No domain.

Propaganda:

Stinky bastard man

Sylvian (wiki)

Domain: Love, Lust & Creation; primordial god of creation, sex, and lust.

Propaganda:

The Goddess Sylvian, according to in-universe folklore, created humans at the dawn of time and loves her creations in a twisted and obsessive way. She has bestowed her love magic onto humans, allowing them to do both beneficial and horrifying things, including fusing two beings together into a Marriage of Flesh. If you have ever wanted to twist and rend yourself and the world around you out of demented love then perhaps you should vote for her She has arguably the most useful spell skill trees in both of the games. She's our mom :) and loved us very much, before she moved away. Tentacles 👍🏻

[nightmare-foundation]

Muffled screaming. Everyone has it backwards

Oz is Darkness and Salem is Light.

Something something destruction is just the cycle of life. It's to clear out the old and replace it with the new. It's to learn and live and die and be reborn. Oz is Darkness, because he lives and he dies and he is reborn. He tears down the old (abolishing monarchies and militaries) and replaces it with what's new (the Academies, a council). He is demonized every time he does his best to help. He believes humanity shouldn't be punished for his mistakes. He offers choice and even knowledge (but not always; but choice is one thing he values above all else). He offers magic as a gift and a tool to use. He learns and grows from his mistakes. He's willing to concede and admit when he's done wrong.

Salem is Light. She is unchanging, undying. She does not age. She believes humanity is lost without Gods, that humanity, while strong, is a fraction of what it once was. She brings life (creating and modifying Grimm). She heals those who need it (Cinders arm, telling Watts to give Tyrian a new tail). But she's stubborn. She's cruel and terrifies people. She manipulates when deemed necessary. She wants to create a new world, one where she's the sole goddess. She hates Oz's gifts to humanity (possibly aura/semblances if my theory is right). She encroaches on Oz's territory and terrorizes those who side with him, and even those who aren't affiliated with him. She's petty and angry and a hypocrite.

I just. Sits down. They're Darkness and Light. They do hold qualities of the other (Salem is Grimm and destructive, Oz is Light and creates things), but it's like how Darkness can create life and Light can destroy.

Ruby: What Happened! Are you guys alright!?!?

Ren: ... No ... We coulsn't stop her ...

Ruby: Couldn't stop who?

Jaune: Nora ... She got into the Five hour energies ... She downed Five of them ...

Ruby: Where is she?

Ozcar *Thousand yard stare* The 25th hour of the day ...

~~~~~

Nora: GIVE ME BACK MY FRIENDS YOU FUCKERS!

G.o.L: OW! FUCK OFF YOU DEMON!

G.o.D: *On a 'scroll'* HELP US!

Blacksmith: You did this to yourselves. Take Care of it Yourselves, or come visit. I cannot go to you.

[bluecheeseinmyoffwhites]

In this essay I will--

I think this is why the big third-act fight of Volume 6 was Blake and Yang vs Adam. Dark and Light, turned against each other by a being of selfishness and arrogance, the darkness and light come together to show them a lesson. The Gods give Salem immortal life, the Bees take Adam's life away. And they both fall to the waters.

[wu-sisyphus-gang]

God of Darkness: You should not have come here, human. Why do you cross through my domain?

Jaune: I was on my way to the kitchen for a snack and I got lost.

God of Darkness: You ended up in the twelfth realm of torment on your way to the kitchen?

Jaune: I am not a clever man.
