#rwby firefly

[bridgyrose]

hi bridgy! hope all’s well!

could i request… some ruby/blake/cinder love triangle? maybe on the atlas setting? blake and cinder are fighting, and ruby catches how their fight gets more “personal”, going from “fighting for salem’s/remnant’s best interest” to “why would she pick YOU over ME?” u,w,u

(Not entirely the ask, but I did have fun with this.)

Ruby’s head spun and her ears rang as she tried to orient herself. The cold Atlas air was making it hard for her to focus as she felt the biting wind against her arms. The last thing she remembered was Cinder showing up and an explosion of fire around her, hitting her head against the wall of the mine. Though, now as her vision started to clear, it became a bit more obvious that things were a bit more dire than expected. The entrance of the mine had collapsed with rock and snow, the campfire that had been lit was starting to die down, and all she could hear was the sounds of Cinder and Blake arguing as the ringing in her ears started to fade. 

“Its your fault we’re stuck here!” Blake said angrily as she jabbed a finger at Cinder’s chest. “You knew the dust mines here werent stable and you still couldnt help but create an explosion!” 

Cinder glared, eyes glowing as her hands lit on flames. “My fault? If it wasnt for you bringing Ruby into here in the first place, we wouldnt be in this mess! You could’ve let me kill her out there!” 

“I wont let you kill her!” 

“If I dont kill her then I cant get back to Salem!” 

“Stop… fighting…” Ruby said, voice a bit rough as she slowly sat up. “We’re… we’re not going to get anywhere… if all we do is fight.” 

Blake pulled away from Cinder and made her way to Ruby, gently helping her sit up. “You need to rest. We can start moving out once you can stand-” 

“And leave this place, how, exactly?” Cinder asked condescendingly. “The entrance is blocked with who knows how much dust buried in the rubble. One wrong move while digging our way out and we could end up with a lot more than just being stuck in a mine.” 

“Which, again, is your fault for us being in this situation.” 

“If she hadnt chosen you, then I could’ve had her with me!” 

“Chose me?” Blake gently pulled away from Cinder and glared. “You really think she chose me because she had a choice?!” 

“Of course she has a choice!” 

“She chose me because you left! You caused Beacon to fall, tried to kill her, why would she ever want you?” 

“And you think I had a choice for any of this!” Cinder threw a fireball at Blake, knocking her into the wall behind her. “None of this was my choice! And if it wasnt for you, I’d actually have someone who cares about me!” 

Ruby slowly started to stand up, staggering a bit as she tried to move towards Blake to check on her. Her legs gave out and she dropped to the ground, wincing as her hands scraped against the ground. Aura shimmered over her for a brief moment as she tried to activate it, still havent given herself time to recover. “You… You could’ve stayed.” 

Cinder glared at Ruby, the flames in her eyes dulling. “What did you say?” 

“You could’ve stayed.” Ruby dropped to her sighed, panting as she rolled to her back and stared at the ceiling of the mine. “You didnt have to help Salem, you could’ve left Beacon alone, became a huntress, helped others instead of hurt them. Didnt… didnt any of that time mean anything you to?” 

“Of course it all meant something to me!” 

“Then why did you throw it all away?” Ruby closed her eyes as her question was met with silence. She sighed and closed her eyes to rest. “Its not too late to change.” 

“I dont need to change, I need power!” 

“Fine, but we’re on a truce until we get out of here,” Blake said as she got up and went back to the fire. “None of us are getting out of here alone and all that power wont do you any good if you blow things up.” 

Cinder frowned. “Fine.” 

Ruby sighed and tried to rest to let her aura recover. She opened her eyes slightly to watch Cinder, her heart aching a bit as her feelings for Cinder started to come back. She closed her eyes, waiting for the feelings to fade again.

[givemeallyourpenny]

They are my everything.

[rwby-encrusted-blog]

Misc. vs Faunus Misc.

Penny: *Curtsy's* Is there any particular reason you were built like that?

Firefly!faunus Penny: *Unfurling Floating Array* Father had personal reasons, though the one he gave the Miliary was to excuse any Eccentricities.

Penny: That sounds rather discriminatory.

Penny: It is.

~~~~~

Penny: *Flaring Wings* I am sorry you did not get to experience Life as an organic person for very long.

Penny: *Summoning Swords* I appreciate your condolences. I hope you live your life to the fullest.

Penny: I will. Thank you.

~~~~~

Oscar: *Extends Long Memory* How does it feel when the Velvet comes off your Antlers?

Deer!faunus Oscar: *Rubbing the base of his antlers* A little pinchy, But mostly I just have to make sure no blood get in my eyes. Or on others.

Oscar: I take it the bandages look bad?

~~~~~

Oscar: *Pulls Long Memory from his antlers* I envy you. I can't wear normal shirts most of the year, only button ups.

Oscar: *Fixing belts* Yeah, that sounds annoying.

Oscar: You don't know the half of it.

~~~~~

Emerald: *Twirls Thieve's respite* So ... I'm guessing you have sticky fingers as well?

Octopus!Faunus Emerald: *Flicks tentacle out of face* Hardy Har har. Do you ask all the pretty girls that?

Emerald: Am I like this with everyone?

~~~~~

Emerald: *Holding jewelry in Tentacles, inspecting it* How's your Mercury doing.

Emerald: *Repeatedly Folding and Unfolding Thieve's respite* He's getting his own legs to stand- dear gods I've been infected.

Emerald: Yeesh. Sounds like you're one foot in the grave- Oh fuck I'm infected to!

~~~~~

Neo: *Draws Hush, Signing* Now what have we here? A fish out of Water?

Lionfish!Faunus Neo: *Flares Spines, Signing* You think you can Handle me? I'm a hazardous Gem.

Neo: Not unless you're all cut up~

~~~~~

Neo: *Coating Hush in Venom* We don't need to fight. I have enough Venom for both of us.

Neo: *Bows, tipping Roman's hat* Venom? Such poor form. Do you even know the Thrill of a fight, or do you curl up and let things stomp on you till they die?

Neo: Okay, now it's personal.

~~~~~

Coco: *Cracks neck* Lookin' good Girlie.

Spider!Faunus Coco: *Adjusts Sunglasses* I don't need all my eyes to see the Gorgeous demon ahead of me.

Coco: Aw, You make me Blush.

~~~~~

Coco: *Peeks over Glasses* I'm Gonna *Hic* Wreck yer face!

Coco: *Aims Gianduja* Are you Drunk?!?!

Coco: Oh, I shouldn't have had Coffee before this ...

I LOVE MULTI SHIPS TOO MUCH, AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

I just love imagining them all in a big 3/4 person ship and dating one another.

There are some I don't particularly ship but it's fun imagining their mutual partners getting them together (Eula X Collei, March X Firefly, Stelle X Robin & Weiss X Penny)

[superiorsturgeon]

Jaune/Pyrrha: *collapse onto the bed, sweaty and spent*

Jaune: Whew! That was fantastic!

Pyrrha:Mmm…it sure was…! *rolls over and closes her eyes*

Jaune: Hey! You can’t go to sleep now!

Pyrrha: *eyes still closed* Mmm…why not…?

Jaune: You know that you’re the strongest one on this team! Do you know what happens if you go to sleep now?

Pyrrha: *nuzzles into her pillow* Cardin sneaks in, bonks me over the head with his mace, and takes my place as the top student…!

Jaune: Exactly!

Pyrrha: *yawns* Well then…I suppose there’s no way to stop it…! 🥱

Jaune: *rolls away* Well, I wash my hands of the whole affair! 😤

Jaune: I’ll be sure to write a lovely poem for your funeral!

Pyrrha: You know…you could lock the door! Perhaps keep the jealous high school bully at bay…!

Jaune: No…no…I’m starting to like this poem idea! 🤔

Jaune: *clears his throat* “Here lies Pyrrha, my beloved, my autumn flower…!”

Jaune: “…somewhat less attractive now that she’s all gross and corpseified!”

Pyrrha: *hits Jaune with her pillow while simultaneously snort-laughing* 😂

rwby fanfic observations

Okay so bare with me here but being a consumer of all things rwby naturally i read and enjoy some of the fanfics associated with the show, however recently after browsing ao3 for a bit I've noticed the amount of smut fics is just astronomically high and there isnt anything wrong with that if thats your thing but it does sorta feel like..... that's all there really is? This sorta ties into one of my earlier reblogs about how you don't need to write smut to write a good fanfic or whatever but like it just feels like the types of rwby related fics are limited to:

Smut

Rewrites

Gigachad Jaune

self inserts

Isekais

or one shots

again NOTHING WRONG with any of these like at all I mean we all write fanfics for fun and your own personal enjoyment but the lack of storybased rwby fanfics is considerably lower compared to the before mentioned types.

And I know what you're about to say "if u don't like it make your own" and I totally would except I suck and writing and I'm literally just an idea generator slapped into a meat sticks body writing is not in my skill set but I am a reader and these are my observations.

Speaking of fic ideas, I'm never gonna write this but it would essentially be rwby in the firefly verse because wouldn't that just work spectacularly? (the answer is yes. Yes it would if done right of course) obviously Joss beetle or whatever the heck his name is is not a great guy blegh do not approve BUT FIREFLY IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING and usually I'm not one for crossovers but for some reason I think this one would kinda work. Like it would be an intresting concept and I can see it so clearly

Kaylee? Ruby for sure

Yang? Definitely Malcom

Blake could totally pull off Inara vibes

Everyone else feels a little iffy but for the Tams Winter and Weiss obviously fit the bill naturally Zoe and Washburne are classic Renora, I think fusing the two universes together could come up with some intresting ideas which could lead to a cool story driven fic but I could yap about this idea forever instead I'm gonna shut up though because it's like 7 am and I haven't slept

Insect-Grimm Repellent often depict Creatures of Grimm on the can, resulting in many to avoid its use. To resolve this issue, some manufacturers have launched new products featuring Insect Faunus celebrities. As a result, complaints have fallen while sales have soared~!

--------------------------------------------------

Penny: (Insect!Faunus) New limited edition spray cans! Come and purchase yours before they are gone~!

Blake: I have to ask... Does it bother you at all that we're using insect faunus to promote products to destroy insect Grimm? It almost feels like a bad joke.

Pyrrha: Well, humans already sell and manufacture weapons to kill each other. It's completely normal, right?

Penny: Correct~!

Blake: Uh...

Hear me out….Jaune Arc x Firefly from Honaki: Star Rail. I mean can you imagine Jaune, the absolute personification of ‘he’d give you the shirt off his back’, meeting this poor somewhat depressed girl who’s searching for a way to once again regain emotions. Tell me that this ship doesn’t have the potential to be absolutely tooth rottingly sweet.

Bonus points for the fact she could literally kill him with a flick of the wrist as Sam.

Moth!Faunus Ruby: :/

Firefly!Faunus Penny: :)

Moth!Faunus Ruby: :)

Fun fact! Most moths actually use the moon to navigate through the night, but may confuse artificial lights for the moon, causing them to circle around it as their reference point is misguiding them.
