Jaune is actually the smartest student at Beacon.

I could believe it. Or at the very least he's the only one who actually understands civilians and their perspective.

Since his family didn't want him to be a hunter he probably spent more time actually interacting with people.

While everyone else was being trained, homeless, rich as fuck, or a terrorist.

He has the strongest ability in RWBY.

A Fucking functioning Brain.

    Jaune helps Beacon student's by using common sense, Part 1
    ​
    Yang - "Arrggh, it's done it again!"

    Weiss - "You're villainy ends now, you fly by night purse snatcher!

    Ruby - "Stand back, I'll use Crescent Rose and free my babies!"

    Jaune - "Girls, what's going on?"

    Yang - "The cookies we bought got snagged on the vending machine hook, so I'm gonna give it my right hook!"

    Blake - "This machine hates Faunus, let's protest!"

    Jaune - "There's a simple solution to this problem that doesn't involve property damage."

    Jaune wanders off screen
    ​
    Weiss - "Hah, as if that simpleton could defeat this steel clad menace!"

    Jaune returns with a Beacon employee
    ​
    Jaune - Here, girls, this is Ratchet Sith, he's one of Beacon's facilities engineers."

    Ratchet - "Sticky hook, huh? We'll rescue your cookies, girls!"

    A few minutes later....
    ​
    Ratchet - "There you go, cookies rescued, and the machine is fixed. See you later Jaune, and call your parents before your mother storms Beacon!"

    Jaune - "Will do!"

    • You know we've had a lot of heroic Arc family members. How about some villains?

    Here are some potential villainous Arcs if anyone wants to write them:

    -Johan Liebert from Monster. He's from the Elric-Arc side of the family in Arminius, their equivalent of Germany. He's a sociopathic manipulator who enjoys causing chaos and ruin just to make people suffer, with immense charisma and intelligence.

    -Himiko Toga from My Hero Academia. She's a distant Fuujin cousin of Jaune's but they played together as children. She's become a serial killer with a thirst for blood, due to her Semblance and the manipulation of a criminal syndicate seeking to use her gifts to gain power. She loves her cousin Jaune deeply... Which is why she'll play with him before she kills him.

    -Regina Arc from Mean Girls: She's a cousin of Jaune's who is a social climber and bullied Jaune relentlessly at Radian before she moved on. She's no better now that she's a high society girl in Vale with rich parents, and one of them is on the Hunter Review Board giving her some power. She's a bully and a harpy, and now she's here.

    Instead of having the gryphon grimm eat him, have the big dragon grimm on scene slam into the airship, causing it to list to the side. He falls off the airship, plummeting to the city below and out of sight in a very obvious "no one could have survived that" kind of fall.

    After that, it's dealer's choice on whether he and Neo (since they would surely have met back up) remain antagonists, or of they would join the heroes as "allies of convenience," in the same way that Vegeta joined up with Krillin, Gohan, and Goku to take on Frieza. Then, over time, he could become even a begrudging hero and friend.

    It's easy enough to craft a self-serving motivation. Vale was his playground. His home turf. It was where he hung his hat, even if he made mischief there more than anything. And Cinder not only trashed his home, she also ruined his reputation. He used to be a "nefarious gentleman thief," and now people are talking about him like he's some two-bit terrorist. Clearly he has to get revenge for that.

    Personally, I actually have a mental image of he and Neo showing up on Menagerie of all places, wearing a Panama hat and an open Hawaiian shirt, sipping a Mai Tai on the beach. He ridicules Blake at first for running away from her problems, but he also has a grudge against Adam and the White Fang. So when Blake gives her floundering speech to save Haven, when the crowd starts to lose interest and disperse, Roman steps in and helps to charm them back.

    Huh, I like it. While it's kinda different to what I had in mind, it also considered things I probably should've and wish I did.

    Balorak146 said:
    Ohh, I caught a plot bunny - imagine the twist if it turned out that Roman not only survived Vale, but was a Faunus himself all along (hence how he managed to get onto a Faunus-exclusive island). He still thinks of and openly calls the White Fang savage animals, but that's because of how they act, not because of racism, and because he knows exactly how much of a rise it would get out of the people he legitimately hates due to the reasons you mentioned.

    Meanwhile, Neo is going around using her Semblance to give herself completely fake cat ears & a tail and is acting like your stereotypical horny anime-fanservice catgirl just to take the piss out of Blake and her family. To Blake's utter horror, Kali thinks it's fucking hilarious and joins in on it. She loves her daughter, but Blake is long past due some bulli-ing for giving her parents so much worry over the years since she ran away. Ghira gets a headache over the whole affair and really feels that he should say something, but godsdammit his wife is hot when she starts channeling her inner vindictive prankster kitty and he knows damn well how wrapped around her finger he is.

    Huh, Torchwick as a Faunus is an interesting idea, don't think I've seen it before. As for Neo, I feel like this'd be perfectly in-character for her and I love it. Same with Torchwick being better at public speaking than Blake. 😆
     
    So I just had a brain fart.

    Do you remember the early days of RWBY when people thought Ozpin had some kind of time semblance?

    Well that made me picture a fun little MCU parody with Oscar.

    *Oscar strolls right into Salems castle*

    Oscar: DommyMommy I've come to bargain.

    *Salem pops Oscar like a grape*

    I have got to stop playing Anno 1800 so much after work and get back to writing my own fics and the snippets I have for these threads. I've already got one in the works with Shere Khan and Sienna Khan meeting after she becomes the head of the White Fang, and now I've got ideas for days for others.

    One of which is time traveling children of Jaune's but they are all actually children, from say toddler to 8-ish or something, and since they speak or think like kids or can't speak coherently at all, it's a mystery sorting out which child is from which future mother if it's not blatantly obvious. Cue true dad Jaune making waves.

    There could also be the hilarious twist where everyone thinks that they're all Jaune's children from different timelines, but in actuality Jaune just has a big harem in the future which non of the future children are able to explain that to them in a way they understand and isn't confusing.

    Every child calls another woman an auntie so it just sounds like they stayed friends after Jaune got with said child's mother. Jaune also gets extremely protective of his sudden kids and his mom gets even worse with all these new grandbabies to love and care for.

    Question is, do all these kids show up at once, or as a staggered group? A whole pile of kids appearing in Jaune's dorm would definitely be a sight to behold. Identifying the mothers won't be easy if a lot of the kids are blonde and just call their moms 'mommy' or something. Most kids after all don't know their parent's actual name for the first few years anyway.

    We do need a ship name for Katy Sith/Jaune Arc. I mean I know I've barely written about her and him together but hell, if people want to write about Katy, she needs a ship name for when she was with Jaune. I'm thinking... FarmCat. For Jaune is a farmboy, and she's a farm(cat)girl.

    Indeed. Would anyone like to write some bits of Jaune and Katy together? Before he left Radian for Beacon, when he returns after the fall of Vale, an AU: Get creative! It doesn't have to be long, just something for the farmgirl Jaune might have married if not for his dream.

    I. Have a idea.

    John was not having a good day. School was boring, gym was exhausting, he just wanted to go home and take a nap. Except he had two problems.

    "No way John you promised!"

    "Don't make me noogie you shrimp."

    Katie and Carla his....friends? Yeah sure friends. Had strong armed him into agreeing to go to the arcade with them. Again. Probably so Carla could beat him. Again.

    "I get why Carla wants me to go, but Katie you don't even play the same type we do, heck you almost never see us in game outside of event! And it's gonna be storming, I'd really like to get home before the thunder starts."

    "You promised John. Are you going to break your word."

    Damn it.

    So here he stands having just shelled out 10$ to get into a VR pod.

    Man he's not even good at Remnants of heroes so why is he always forced to play?

    [Previous data file found. John Dark. Logging in. Welcome back to Remnant Jaune Arc]

    Great now to find Carla for his daily ass kicking.

    "Hey Jauney boy ready for your beating."

    Ah there she...he? Is. Same old armor and cocky ass smirk. Standing a good head taller than him (she definitely did that because she's tired of being the shortest one of the group).

    "Let's not and say we did Cardin."

    "No chance. Especially since I got Katy to make me some special ammo."

    "Ammo?"

    "Yep. Extra ripe tomatoes. Just for us to enjoy, hey maybe if you dodge well enough you'll actually get exp for your weird broken class."

    Ah yes. His class [Trueborn] not a single point of exp in six months. Yet another reason to dislike this game.

    "Wonderful. Great. Let's go."

    "You don't sound too enthusiastic there buddy o'mine."

    "What? No I'm ecstatic, and if I'm lying let the gods strike me down now."

    Really shouldn't have tempted fate.

    There was a boom of thunder and a flash of light before things seemed to twist and turn inside out in a rainbow of colors. Then as suddenly as it happened everything snapped back to normal, except not?

    It's like someone cranked the games realism way up. Everything was so bright and colorful. So many sounds and smells.

    "Yo you doing ok there knucklehead?"

    There's a familiar voice but it shouldn't be. So he looks.

    Same old armor, same old cocky ass smirk. Except instead on a 6'5 dude it's on a 4'9 girl.

    "You doing ok Jaune? Stunned by my beauty? Well maybe if you actually manage to land a hit on me this time I might let you shoot your shot."

    There floating over her head [Carla Winchester] . That's right, but it's wrong? Cardin Winchester. That's supposed to be the character of Carla Winston. But something in his head is telling him that this is right.

    What the hell is going on?!

    Have you ever heard of a manga called dragon drive?

    Similar idea. Super popular VR game is actually a simulation of another world that actually exists.

    John/Jaune is basically a dimensional immigrant without knowing it (it's why his class and exp are weird) that thunderbolt has scrambled stuff in jaunes pod and things are getting mixed up between the two worlds.

    With him being the only one able to (naturally) notice (or possibly alter) the changes.
     
    Update! I've done a lot of revisions and I've had a lot of help from my beta and so the full First Half of the Sanctuary Flashback will be available on my Patreon this evening!

    I'll post it here and on Ao3 in two weeks for free!

    https://www.patreon.com/c/AndrewJTalon
    In the meantime you'll be getting some more omakes and such for this story while I work on the next chapter of the flashback. It's gonna be big.
     
    So I've seen a few stories where there's humanoid Grimm and it's either a perfect engine of destruction or it betrays Salem to join humanity. And I had a different idea.


    "Humans are made of creation and destruction, they build themselves up, then they knock themselves down. Over and over again. I'll help the humans build their towers higher than ever. So the crash is that much more devastating."

    A Grimm that instead of mindless destruction spurs humanities development onward. But it the most damaging ways possible. Technology that supplies huge amounts of power while poisoning the world around it. Cheap food that makes sure nobody goes hungry, that damages your overall health.

    Stuff like that.
     
    Found an artist via D&D youtube channel, and some of it gave me some ideas (the artist is called Theropod-Art, and their youtube channel is called; Dungeons and Dinos).

    - Yang as a dinosaur faunus, instead of the often used dragon faunus, just because dinosaurs are aweome.
    Plus there's the whole fact that dinosaurs have actually existed (though I'm not sure if they ever have on Remnant).
    Then there's als the fact that dino Yang could be a very, very tall, because some dinosaurs were some of the biggest creatures that ever walked the earth (there were also plenty of medium and small dinosaurs, and the biggest animals ever are all aquatic for obvious reasons).

    That's it. That's the image I was thinking about. They're supposed to be movie kong and Godzilla.

    Though I just want to point out. That they should probably be swapped.

    Since lightning=plasma so Godzillas plasma breath is a closer match to Nora.

    And Kong has a robot hand like yang and is punch happy.
