Yang was the big fish in the small pond at Signal. And so far she's been the consistent second best in combat class. Getting beaten by Pyrrha? Well, no shame in that.
Except one day, Jaune actually beats Yang in a Combat Class match. He doesn't do anything fancy, he's just now competent enough...
Also, nobody's thought to do anything with Demoman as Nora's mentor/father figure? Nothing at all?
(I am working on more Arc Clan but come on guys!)
I see it this way: Tavish Finnegan DeGroot, aka Demoman's real name, finally retired after the Gravel Wars ended. The Mann Co. warfare ended as...
Okay, some prompts while I chew over how to make the next Arc Clan better:
-Tangy gets to put JNPR and RWBY into her boot camp for two weeks. Will they survive?
-Graves, Alexander, Trey, Brand, Irene, and Isabel meet up with Qrow, Taiyang, Arjun, Saia, and a few other parents of the Hunters in...
Yes but that is based entirely on merit. If you're poor, you're a loser. If you're rich, and you made yourself rich through your efforts, he'll respect you. If you're some rich fop who inherited money, he won't respect you.
Anyway! Some prompts since it's Yang's birthday month:
-Beacon has a class project where random couples of students have to take care of a robotic baby. Jaune and Yang, both struggling with their grades, take this class and have to look after a robot baby together. Shenanigans ensue.
-Yang...
Cinder Fall had put Mercury and Emerald on watching Jaune Arc. The fact a member of his family was now in a key position of authority over Vale's defenses meant she had to take him seriously-Perhaps even more seriously than Pyrrha Nikos.
It was annoying. Embarrassing, really, to have to...
Jaune: "So sweetie, what did you learn in daycare today?"
Mia: "That the Starlight Rangers are awesome heroes who beat up Grimm monsters!"
Jaune: "Haha! They absolutely are!"
Jaune makes it back to the JNPR common room... Which has a fire fighter team handling it.
Jaune: "Wha-What...

So... At least for the purposes of my little verse for RWBY, Vale is like a mix of the US and Europe, while Atlas is like a mix of the US, Russia and Germany.
Culturally and technologically speaking. A number of Mistalian and Vacuoan powers can rival them, but at least in the last century Vale...
I mean if they just took them for inspiration, fine. But they pretty much did nothing with most of these inspirations or connections. Adam, for example, was supposed to be the Beast to Blake's Beauty/Belle, but he was turned into a psycho incel just to facilitate Bumblebee. Which helped to...
I had plans for an action packed fight... But I just couldn't figure out how to make it make sense. And we'd had some heavy chapters so I decided, what the hell, let's relieve the tension a little.
However, Sienna's actions have caused another issue: Cinder now realizes something is up.
Jaune managed to get through the grogginess and cut to more important things.
Jaune: "Where's Katy? What have you done with her?"
Sienna: "She's safe, as long as you comply."
Jaune: "I'm not going to feel very cooperative unless I can see she's all right."
Sienna: "Tough. You don't get to...

He was back in Radian. The the familiar mountains, green and gray, shone in the light of the sun. A light breeze in the trees, familiar to him as the sound of his breathing, along with bird song and light music filled the air. The farmhouse he stood before was unfamiliar, yet still cozy...
Ahhh... Yeah. My thoughts:
Kerry has been saying stuff about Volume 10 for a long time, several times in fact, mostly along these lines. There's been nothing official from ViZ so it's best to take this with a grain of salt-Like anything else CRWBY says. In fact make that a whole container of...
Which would have further helped humanity rise to become the dominant powers but human slaves would likely have been common. Though not just by Faunus, of course. Humans are always going to be nasty to eachother, after all.
Extras: On Worldbuilding: The History of the Faunus and Mankind
So, after the Moonshatter, the Faunus would most likely have had the physical and sensory advantages over humans. So Faunus empires rising that enslaved humanity would be natural. But over time, the canonical issue of Faunus tribes mixing would arise. To quote:
This would make it hard to...
