Like No One is Watching 1/5 - An unexpected question

Deciding to take the Nightmare Grimm situation as a warning to treat their training, and bonds seriously, RWBY and JNPR strive to be the best huntsman they can be, but the heart can be a fragile thing, and when Ruby, and Pyrrha overhear Weiss ask Neptune to the dance well, things can happen.

Only time will tell if it'll be for the better or not.

Updates weekly.

Happy Birthday, Rose!

Neptune Vasilias

Race: Human

Nationality: Atlas (Argus colony)

Ethnicity: Mistrali

Weapon: Salacia

Gender: Man

Sexuality: closeted homosexual

Starting Age: 17

Birthday: Winter 88th

Aura Color: Blue

Handedness: Left

Complexion: Tan

Eye Color: Blue

Semblance: Ebb & Flow (A Domination type semblance, Neptune's Aura causes all water it comes into contact with to stick to his body. Neptune can then make any water under his Aura's control to flow outwards from himself. With enough training, this could be used to control water, but Neptune refuses to use his power.)

Occupation: Haven student, Boy band keybord player

Previous Occuppation: none

The Vasilias family is to the Argus colony what the Schnee family is to Atlas. That is to say, a never ending source of easy tabloid drama with a darker source hidden from the cameras. This week it's Jupiter was caught cheating on his girlfriend, next week its one of the triplets are doing something crazy online, that week it's abuse allegations against Saturn. But one person the paparazzi just can't seem to catch is Neptune, 2nd son of the Vasilias family. Well, Pluto also, but no one even in the family cares about that guy.

Normally, the reports that are just begging to see "the truth" are just grasping at straws, but this time there really is a hidden truth. When Neptune was just 6 years old, his family took him on a swimming trip just like Saturn and Ops used to do before they had children. It was just supposed to be a nice day at the beach, teaching their children how to swim. But Neptune, always being the cautious child, opted to stay away from the shore line.

That was when Jupiter, then 8 years old, came up with an amazing idea. He lured Neptune to the edge of the pier, and pushed him into the ocean. Just to teach him how to swim. If Neptune was anyone else, he would have drowned in the water. But Neptune was a Vasilias, a family of warriors with Aura levels naturally at 1000. When the water began to enter Neptune's lungs, he developed his semblance Ebb & Flow. Neptune automatically pushed the water out of his body, formed a water bubble around his body, and shot back to the shore.

His parents, who were begging to wonder where Neptune went, saw their sun walk onto shore covered head to toe in water glued to his body. Before they could even begin to realize what they were seeing, Neptune accidentally moved the water onto Jupiter, who immediatly developed his own semblance that vaporizes water. The brothers were never the same since, Jupiter accused Neptune of killing him, and Neptune became a hydrophobe and refused to use his power. So is the secret tale of Neptune Vasilias.

Oh yeah, he's also secretly gay, but everyone knows that.

When you are so familiar with salem’s monologue in 1.1 that you can remember the words even in a foreign language:

😶

[chittychittyyangyang]

Breif rundown of the panel:

Talked about the DC Crossover (and that Yang and Weiss have a Type)

How different it is voicing a dub of your character who is in a lot of ways you helped create (about IceQueendom)

The actors being aware of the passage of time and that some fans started watching RWBY when they were in elementary school

Biggest growth: Weiss - identity outside of her family. Blake - trusting and rebuilding relationships. Yang - abandonment and learning people leaving isn't about you, it's about them (and a "Sorry!" From Arryn). Ruby - trusting and choosing herself, not just following roles placed on her.

Barb and Arryn thought the bees were beautiful, of course, and well paced even if Arryn was impatient having to wait 10 years.

Fave volume to voice: immediately for Lindsay and Arryn 9, Kara 9 and 4, Barb 9 and 5

Don't remember specific question (hardest scene maybe? Or hurt them the most?): Lindsay said the tea party was hard for them to voice from an acting standpoint and getting into those emotions. Kara said talking to herself and making sure the right emotions were coming through was hard. Arryn got distracted and talked about how dark it was for Neo to have nothing left and that Hawker died. She did mention the acting with Apthy was hard (and her long monologue in V5 after burning her house down). Lindsay pointed out it didn't have to be dark and that they knew the bees scene was hard because they wanted to make sure it was right. Barb said it was that no one gave her a high five. Truly, the worst thing.

They all loved Weiss's "mature" line, and joked about daddy issues, but Barb mentioned Weiss is used to dealing with things herself and would need someone who could match her.

Arryn HATES Sun's line "I knew you'd look better without the bow". "Bees are canon now, baby! Back off!"

Lindsay said Ruby helps remind her to get out there and meet more people. Barb said the love the fandom shows them and playing a confident character makes her want to be more confident.

When asked about switching bodies with characters Lindsay said Weiss so Ruby could run around the Schnee mansion. Arryn was going to say Blake and Yang but "they'd just be touching the same parts" (and she lost it). Barb suggested Zwei for her cause cat and dog switch. Barb said Raven because mommy issues and so they both could learn about each other.

Crack ships: Lindsay said Sncheekos, Arryn just likes the name Pussy magnet, Barb insisted Yang isn't straight, but Solarflare would be the ultimate bromance.

And all of them love Nora and Zwei

I HOPE IS NOT ICEQUEENDOM SEASON 2

They wouldn’t hype us up this much if it was just IQ Season 2. They know we’ve been waiting for good news for months, CRWBY wouldn’t do that. They care about the show as much as the FNDM does

That being said, I would still be psyched if they did announce IQ Season 2. I fucking loved that show

[rwby-confess]

cant do it buddy as ive never seen icequeendom  😔 tiny weiss cute tho

How would neo and cinder react to icequeendom bunny jaune?

Neo:

Cinder: *Holding Bunny Jaune* This... this is too much. How can anything ever be this adorable!? This must be the work of an enemy Semblance, and if it is, please don't let it stop.

[iamafanofcartoons]

lnombredelarosa's take on what the main cast thinks of one another

Some of this are pure headcanon, others are supported by interaction but lnombredelarosa feels all of them make sense.

Ruby

Yang

Usually looks for encouragemnt on her but sometimes afraid of dissapointing her

Her words on vol 8 about how things hadn't gone the way they had hoped for from following her still stung Ruby throughout volume 9

Jaune

Her confidant whose presence always lightens her up; more willing to open up to him without fear of his doubting her

His awkwardness did innitially made her cringe, though

Kinda reminds her of her dad and Yang but more on her maturity level

His change in the everafter has made it difficult to connect with him like she usually does

Oscar

Sees herself on him; noting his growth makes her feel like she herself is growing

A part of her was glad he wasn't in the Everafter to see her at her lowest

After the ascension she now feels she can empathize better with Oscar's merger

Weiss

Sometimes difficult to talk with, which in turn makes it more fun to try to talk to her (specially when annoying her)

Unlike everyone else, Ruby sometimes forgets Weiss is older

Recented her for adjusting to the trauma in vol 9 better than she herself did, including her taking a liking of the changed Jaune, feeling Weiss should feel just as miserable about it all as she was feeling

Ren

His presence makes her feel calm as she appreciates his mature outlook at things

Seeing him get emotional in volume 4 disturbed her

Wished he had been there to say something wise to in volume 9

Nora

Always fun to hang out with and fight beside but doesn't feel she can trust her with subtler things

Wished she had been there to lighten up the situation in the Everafter

Blake

Respects her worldly wisdom; takes her advices to heart

In volume 9 she recented her previous encouragement as exemplified by her telling her to "shut up" feeling undeserving of that trust she put in her

Qrow

She's always looked up to him and still does but no longer has an idealized view of him

Second father and mentor

Penny

Identifies with her wanting to form a connection to others, like she herself innitially struggled to do

Often listens to Penny's doubts and tell her she can relate to what she feels but tends to avoid communicating her own doubts feeling it will scare her

When the Paper pleasers died her anger at Jaune over his losing "made believe friends" was her anger at herself over feeling broken from losing her

Weiss

Yang

Has an easier time showing weakness to her than to anyone else

Likes her with Blake because seeing her in a good mood makes her feel more at ease

Projects her sister on her

Jaune

She has come to associate being with him with feeling safe on a personal and physical level

The way he has helped her and shown his character in several key moments has caused this association

His rusted knight self reminded her of her grandfather who caused her a simmilar reaction

She subconsciously remembers his protecting the lil' Weisses in the Icequeendom

Oscar

Often doesn't know how to approach him but when she does tends to be indulgent of him

Projects her brother (or at least how he was on warmer times) on him, which along with other things made her more curious about reaching to Whitely

Headcanon: allowed him to pick the movie when she went with him and Jaune

Ruby

Feels she should set an example for her but often forgets to as she ends up acting more like her

Innitially projected current Whitley (the one who always got everything) on her but has come to project herself instead and feels she should be her Winter

A part of her figured her trying to remain in control in the Everafter would set a good example for Ruby to do the same much like she feels Winter would've done for her

Blake

Looks up to her the most; feels she sets a standard of decency to follow

Wishes she'd had a parent like her

Her adjusting to her being a faunus so fast was to a degree lip service to get rid of a source of conflict but with time it became completely sincere, specially after seeing how affected she was by the White Fang attack

Nora

More Ruby than Ruby herself, which makes her feel even more responsible for her recklesness

Ren

Sense of empathy; the way he tries to maintain his serenity reminds her of the image of strenght she tends to prefer projecting

Blake

Yang

Feels she can rely on her; her strenght of character makes her feel safe while inspiring her to be stronger herself and her gentleness makes her feel her feelings are validated

Freudianly reminds her of her dad but with her mom's easygoing attitude

Jaune

Finds him easy to approach though at times finds his lack of tact annoying

His edgy lookin Rusty Knight self reminded her of Adam back in his better moments

Ruby

Has the most trust in her which is why she tends to be the most supportive of her decisions

This makes sense because she is the most used to following chains of command

In the Everafter, she rationalized if Ruby needed help she would've said as much sooner

Ren

Enjoys his company and how he gives her a break from her more fast paced teammates

Still she occasionally find him dull by comparison

Nora

Admires her determination; doesn't mind her recklessness as much as others

When talking to her about how she felt without Ren, she was thinking of her own relationships with Adam and Yang

Weiss

Taught her that eveyrone has their own story; tries to understand her outlook as a basis on how to understand humans

Figure that is she can change her outlook, then anyone can

"Perhaps she was right about us" she thought as Beacon fell and Yang was crippled

Oscar

Less condescending than most of the others; tends to treat him as an equal

She too started seeing action at an earlier and untried age than the others so she understands his position

Yang

Ruby

Conflicted between seeing her as a leader and seeing her as her little sister; often overdoes one or the other

Came to develop more respect for her leadership after seeing how difficult managing a team was in vol 8

In volume 9 she was putting off helping her deal with her loss because she herself didn't feel confident enough to be of use to her

Jaune

Finds him amusing; often enjoys his antics where others would be cringed at them

Seeing him take lead as her and Ren argued allowed her to gain more respect for him

Liked him for Ruby but wasn't pushy about it

Blake

Her presence calms and guides her; without her around she feels more doubtful

Her closeness with her in volume 9 was a way to cope for her own feelings of failure

Weiss

Feels like she can be blunt with her both because she can take it and because she takes herself too seriously

Much like her dad is with her

Nora

Friendly rivalry; enjoys trying to one up her

Her pulling the arm off when armwrestling was because she was afraid of losing

Ren

Appreciates his common sense and usually gets along with him pretty well but finds him hard to approach when in his moods

His words in volume 8 still stung throughout volume 9 wondering her own capacity to make good decisions

Oscar

Often acts like an encouraging big sister, usually pushing him to be more proactive

Was projecting her former image of Ruby on him when he was kidnapped

Suspects he likes Ruby; doesn't hold it against him but for obvious reasons he wouldn't be her first choice

Oscar

Yang

Often feels like following her lead but gets embarassed when he can't keep up with her

Ruby

Idolizes her; her strenght inspires him to try to be strong on his own

His becoming more and more like Ozpin has in turn made him feel he has to put up a distance between them, being afraid of manipulating her like he feels Ozpin would

Nora

Uncomfortable by her displays of love but down the line he appreciates them

Reminds him of his aunt whom she feels guilty of leaving

Blake

Likes that she doesn't baby him; feels he can act more naturally with her

Jaune

The easy going and fun big brother he never had

Feels he can relax when he is with him

"He must've been a really cool guy back at Beacon" cue everyone else trying not to laugh

Feels slightly jealous of his being seen as an equal by Ruby but doesn't recent him for it

Ren

Appreciates how he tends to be more sensitive to his being scared

Weiss

He feels she tend tends to ignore him and doesn't know how to act around her but is usually glad when she is more willing to talk to him

Ships her with Jaune

Ren

Ruby

Tries to be sensitive with her, being the most aware of Ruby's mental condition

Was the most accomodating of her when she joined JNR, realizing she was PTSDing

His "Ruby is barely more than a kid" points that a part of him suspects her mental health was a time bomb

Yang

Finds her charismatic but is also somewhat envious of her self confidence

His feeling redundant due to knowing she is both physically stronger and a more skilled fighter doesn't help

Normally they get along wonderfully, as his being around Nora has made him appreciate her silly sense of humor

Jaune

Relies on him as a confidant whom he doesn't actively confide in, because Jaune is just that good at reading him

Innitially wanted to keep an emotional distance and found him somewhat annoying but over time grew to think of him as a friend as he kept pointing out stuff he prefered keeping bottled up

After a while of knowing him thought his having cheated into Beacon was fairly obvious but figured that until he proved detrimental to the team it was none of his business

Oscar

When he sees him afraid he sees himself and Nora

Thats why his being kidnapped affected him so much

Empathizes with his desire to grow stronger

Pyrrha

She tended to actively reach out to him always asking him how he was doing when he remained stoic

Pure Headcanon I know

Nora

Sense of responsability; he feels that he must be there for her which is why at times he distances himself from her

Occasionally feels he is not good enough for her due to her being physically stronger

Admires how she is upfront about confronting problems just like his father told him

Part of the reason he occasionally pushes her away is because he reasons (in a very Mistralian way) this is a more efficient way to keep themselves safe

Weiss

Innitially held (unvoiced) reservations of her for her attitude and social status but she has consistently surprised him in that regard (Pure headcanon)

He found himself feeling happy that she went after them in volume 5

Figured Jaune was setting himself for dissapointment with her; he will be the most surprised about her current thing for him

Blake

Likes the fact that he can have a more mature conversation with her

Occasionally finds himself thinking her rather dull compared to his teammates

Qrow

"Thats how a real Huntsman should be like"...then he started getting drunk

Nora

Ruby

Innitially felt threatened by having to include her in her team's dynamics but has come to appreciate her as a perky little sister

Yang

Friendly rivals; enjoys having someone to measure strenghts with

Seeing her without an arm affected her

Oscar

Has strong maternal feelings that she sometimes overdoes

Feels responsible for him due to her own mother having abandoned her

Jaune

She enjoys teasing him knowing that he'll get embarassed where Ren won't

However, she actually respects his leadership the most being the first one to follow his orders

Ren

Protecting and following him gives her a sense of purpose

Enjoys having a more mature partner to guide her through more complicated stuff

Understands he has to keep his space but sometimes wishes he'll tell her how he feels

Freudianly proyects her mom on him, having found him soon after she left her

Blake

Thinks of her as a confidant for the more complicated stuff she herself keeps bottled in

Usually she is more lighthearted about it

This is partly due to being simmilar but more open than Ren

Comming from a poor background herself, empathizes with her social views

Pyhrra

Often enjoyed getting a reaction out of her

Jaune

Pyrrha

Saw her as a role model he can only aspire to be like

Reminds him of Saph (as implied by his dream in the Ice Queendom)

Yang

Likes hanging out with her due to her encouraging personality and doesn't feel like lowering the cringe around her

Reminds him of his red sister (the maternal one)

Ruby

Feels he has a like minded soul on her; he feels the fact that she can trust him despite the the insecurities he hold is a reason to trust his own leadership

His dissapointment at her in vol 9 is a reflection of his own feeling of failure

Reminds him of his indigo sisters (the fun ones he follows around)

Ren

He can read through his moods better than most which has contributed to his bond with him

He is to Ren what Ren is to most of the crew

Reminds him of his light blue sister (the smart one)

Nora

Her presence and teasing always keeps him upbeat

Reminds him of his green sister (the tomboyish one)

Oscar

Feels like he owes it to himself to be there for Oscar like Pyhrra and his sisters were there for him

Reminds him of Adrian

Blake

Often embarassed by her poiting out things he misses (headcanon) but in a funny way

Reminds him of his purple sister (the practical one)

Weiss

Her acceptance of him as he matured has allowed him to better appreciate his own maturity

Unlike any of his sisters, their relationship wasn't unconditional and that has pushed him to mature

Qrow

Never quite forgave him for putting Pyrrha in the line of fire with the Maiden business

Note:

For the most part they've all come to dissociate Oscar from Ozpin

Weiss tries to project an image of strenght and control but occasionally lowers it with key people

Blake has some people pleaser habits from her days with Adam

Ren holds some traditionalist mistralian beliefs in regards to relationships as exemplified by his tendency to hold back his emotions

He is however more progressively minded in most fronts (such as the treatment of Faunus and foreigners), as the people in the mistralian settlements near Vale are more prone to be
