Winter: *Walking by, seeing both Ren and Nora listening to her sister's room* Have you seen huntsman Jaune?

Nora: *who was listening at the door* Uhh... Yeah, why?

Winter: General Ironwood has demanded all team leaders to be present at the next meeting.

*grunting can be heard from the other side of the door*

Nora: Yeah he's uh- *point to the ground, whispering* In there...

*More grunts and moaning can be heard*

Winter: *goes to open the door before being stopped by Nora*

Nora: Maybe you should just give him thirty seconds.

Winter: ...

Nora: *trying not to laugh* I mean, you've seen your sister, i don't know how he could hold out for more than thirty seconds, *putting her hand on Winter's shoulder* do you?

Ren: *looking unsure*

Nora: Ah... You got a point Ren. *Looking pensive* He got lots of aura, probably has a lot of experience because of Penny-

Penny: *muffled on the other side of the door* Weiss, you can push him more! His stamina is truly sen-sational! We could go for hours without ends! *Giggles* Here, let me show you!

*something is thrown violently at the door, as even more violent grunting and moanings can be heard, the door starting to shake*

Nora: *nodding to herself* Give him a full minute.

You know what, if not in canon then in fanfiction I WILL see Ruby Rose talk to other people about how to handle leadership.

Let Ruby rehash her post-initiation conversation with Coco from After the Fall (and maybe even get part of it animated in a flashback?), and let them both figure out how to avoid putting up a front for the people you lead. Let them talk about how teammates are not just your responsibility but also should rely on.

Let Ruby and Sun talk about not just taking everything on yourself, about opening up to your team and keeping them close rather than push them away during times of fear. Let him find the balance between lightening the mood and making light of other people’s feelings, and let Ruby learn to cut loose and be a little less responsible.

Let Ruby discuss with Robyn how to handle being idolized (not just by their teams, but seemingly by almost all of Remnant and at least most of Mantle, respectively). Let them discuss public personas and PR and social order in balance with the people you’re close with and can rely on, the ways to divvy up a big burden like that and make it more manageable.

Let Ruby discuss with Winter how to handle insubordination and learning to take other people’s opinions into account and…actually given Winter only knows how to lead a military by pulling rank or making threats, she’s probably got much more to learn from Ruby than vice versa. But learning not everything has to be personal and that she doesn’t always need to self-justify could be good for Ruby.

Hell, let’s get Theodore and Rumpole in on this — let Ruby rely on the teacher and headmaster who won’t turn evil unless a literal brainwashing semblance comes into play.

And of course, I think Ruby is overdue for another conversation with Ozpin — perhaps an inversion/official denouncement of her conversation with him in The Badge and the Burden.

Just. I can’t wait to actually see Ruby talking through her issues and burdens.

Kinda late, but yesterday (Aug. 12) was Middle Child Day!

Every time I remember that one cameo where Miles Luna basically confirmed that Winter tried to take Whitley under her wing the same way she did with Weiss but from a young age Jacques spoke shit to him about his sisters to keep him separated from them and keep him under his control—since he couldn't keep the other two—I get really pissed off. Well, get fucked, asshole, because Whitley turned out to be a great kid even with the manipulation attempts lmao. Two days away from Jacques and instead of thinking about him (like Jacques thought he would, saying that Whitley had likely already contacted his legal team lol) the boy was calling Klein again, coming up with ideas to help Mantle and starting to rebuild his relationships with Weiss and his mother. Not a single thought about him lmao he never truly had any of his kids under his control.

I CAN FINALLY SHOW IT DSFJKHSDFJH It was so much fun honestly!

[amelia-yap]

Jacques Schnee: What? Are you insinuating that just because my youngest daughter was born Faunus and could turn into a dragon and I was afraid that this could damage my reputation I abandoned her as a baby on an island miles away from here in the hope that she could be eaten by the local wildlife or a Grimm and made everyone, my own wife and eldest daughter included, think that she died at birth? That’s ridiculous!

Another pretty old RWBY fanart - Schneesters

[moltensmusings]

No one asked for this but it is a necessity

[frishbi]

I love this commission so much AHAHAHA

[fadedneonzzz]

Commission from @yellownicky !

Cinder and Winter going to school together! I like to think Cinder would be very antagonistic to Winter every chance she’d get.

A Ghost Named Winter ❄️

The first entry of a winter themed art prompt for December! (And possibly the only one lol)

Winter you betrayed me and Ironwood both but I’ll forgive you because it was probably for the best.
