[RWBY] RWBY Shorts

[AndrewJTalon]

A link RWBY put up for a survey to determine the direction of the franchise. Put in your thoughts. Imagine if we could make it based. https://t.co/UGdBJvxazp

I would agree with that. Especially if you go with the idea of him being very close to Belle and Wise. Or replacing Wise as Belle's 'brother' and making him part of the duo.

I love the idea that do to shenanigans *cough Wise Harem cough* Jaune has never physically met Wise but is great friends with Belle. Hell the idea Jaune just runs into Wise Harem and gets teased relentlessly by them as they think him and Belle are cute together, adds to his raised by his sisters status
i love the idea that due to all that teasing Jaune is oblivious to real flirting, making him blind to Belle and Pyrrha's attempts to date him

That would be hilarious. Especially if Belle is the one to strong arm her way into being the one to help Jaune and Pyrrha is his fellow agent. Although I would keep Burnice, personally just for her attempts to play matchmaker, as his half-sister.

And yeah, I've started playing the game and am liking it! The characters are very entertaining in the Cunning Hares and I can't wait to get to the Son's of Camydon. As well as the maid group.

Right now is probably one of the best times to at least start a new account. 1 Year Anniversery, you can select a Standard S-Rank Character and a Standard S-Rank Weapon(W-Engine).

But yeah, great character designs and more condensed/focused story telling compared to Hoyo's other games.

How do I get the S-Rank character, and weapon?

I just started the game for the first time, and am at the point in the plot where Fairy appears at the video store.

All great! Again, ZZZ is kind of like if RWBY had a budget and proper creative team behind it.

Miyabi being a celebrity on par with Pyrrha might be fun to explore... Especially if Miyabi knows Jaune. Ohhh my, the rivalry that would start.

This I want to see.

And Jaune switching from being a Proxy to becoming a Huntsman... And just when he got out, he gets pulled back in again.

What would Jaune's proxy name be?

It should be with the events, if you've unlocked them and the gacha.

 

[AndrewJTalon]

A fun idea for reviving Cowboys of Remnant.

In this case, JNPR and RWBY go to a small town that Jaune's passed through before. Jaune... Is arrested for murder. Years ago he was in a gun fight against bandits. One shot went stray. A few civilians were hurt. A little girl died. Jaune wondered for years if he was the one who hit her, but he put it out of his mind. Mister Duke told him it wasn't anyone's fault.

But Jaune now feels like he's the one responsible and just grimly accepts his fate. While Ruby and the others look over the evidence to try and prove his innocence.

finally got some time to write some prompts.
-team RWBY due to some shenanigans are currently held in cells by the VPD(Vale Police Department). while they wait for the bail, they learn that Jaune and Ren are on first name basis with the VPD. Ren due to Nora, who they just notices is in the cell next to them, and Jaune due to him helping around the precinct.

-Jaune wanted to be a hero. just because he failed to get into Becaon doesn't mean he's going to give up on his dream, not when he still has his back-up plan in the from of joining the VPD.

-Blake is arrested by police, team RW_Y do not like this and force the issues. this ends with them in the cell along with Blake, who along with Yang is still twitching from the taser shots, turns out when dealing with superpowered individual that sees you as powerless mooks to squash you have to learn to adapted quickly and how to fight dirty, and the VPD are very good students. while in holding cells team RWBY finally find out why Blake was arrested, turns out that Blake had never formally resign from the white fang and is still consider a member, so while her activities as a terrorist are a part of her charges they are not the main reason. no, the main reason for her arrest is due to the smut she wrote, the poorly written bad smut, which is so bad that it has cause a raise in grimm activities.

-during a grimm attack a hunter was badly injured. while the doctors were unable to save the hunter's body, they could saved the hunter's brain, by uploading the hunter's mind into vehicle. now with their new partner, a bear or a chimpanzee a la sir bearington, they fight crime. this based on old shows like Knight Rider, Airwolf and Turbo Teen.

-Jaune has been acting weird and team RWBY+NPR decide to follow him during his trip to vale to find out why. turns Jaune has been going to visit him uncle who works in vale for advice. who is this uncle? why non-other than the police chief of vale. turns out that the police chief was an old friend of Jaune's parents and had a crush on Nick, while the police chief has moved on and is now happily marriage, he's still considered a close family-friend and is happily an honorary uncle to the Arc kids

-team JNPR are going on a fishing trip, when team RWBY hear about it they decide to tag-along. unfortunately RWBY+P misunderstood it as fishing, relaxing with friends and having a few beers, where as JNR meant fishing which is based on this:

Spoiler

-turns out Jaune had lied about faking the transcript, having decided that being punish for having fake transcript was less embarrassing than the truth.

-before the rise of Dust and Morphing Weapon, grimm were fought with the hunter's holy trinity aka sliver, holy water and salt. while not as common as before some still use the old way, and now team RWBY has run into one such hunter. how will this end for them?

i have one more prompt, but that's going into the Hot Pieces of RWBY thread when i get the time to write it.

A simple thing, ultra Jaune hater woman gets reincarnated as Ruby.

You know the type, we all have met these types where they don't hate Jaune as a character per se, but more so his archetype. The kind that would consider Sokka an eternal enemy of woman based on his earlier behaviour and not even change her opinion once he grows. The kind of woman who would destroy hogwarts in a Harry Potter SI fanfiction and win everyone over because she is so cool and her ideas would make all the witches rally behind her and somehow defeat Voldemort just like that.

The kind of super misandrist/ Fem-radicalist that would be featured in a CynaideSins story.

So, she thinks she can easily be the mary sue, have the world running to her whims and all that jazz, standard stuff really.

Then reality fucks her up just like canon Ruby, because despite all her clever planning, all her Ironwood bashing , her antagonists are more cunning, more powerful and much more prepared than her.

She can't just easily get the maiden powers as she thought, she can't just win against Salem. Strength alone doesn't grant victory. Based on all this shit, she will either die or become an extremely jaded outcast.

Still, Jaune doesn't give up on his friends like that, but in the Ever After, when Jaune bursts down on her and this time he has even more ammunition on her.

Despite all the bad-bitch attitude, she looks in a pond and sees Cinder instead of her own image. When she tries to ascend, she goes back to the point where she first reincarnated.


This situation repeats because you know the stubborn types, they don't change after just one failure, they stick to their guts.
Finally after a complete Subaru-esque situation, she decides to accept friendship instead of trying for the harem she was going for her and decides that if she was going to fail, it was going to be with eager friends and not acquaintances and strained family.

---

Alternatively, we also have a situation for a Jaune 'Harem MC' SI, the one that thinks he can get all the bitches and be the ultimate alpha(I almost threw up writing this)

Honestly his fate is both kinder and worse than the Ruby SI one, cause he won't even become a proper Huntsman and would probably spend his life as a waste of space and would die off in a large scale tragedy because without Jaune, a lot of shit goes down and Salem wins a lot more easily.

Since he couldn't even reach Ever After, he doesn't even get the Ascendence option.

It's very dark but it could work if written well. And yeah, I wrote my own Jaune SI to consciously avoid him being a jackass. Because if it was me or any normal person, you'd be scared out of your wits.

And of course he isn't gonna go for a harem because every girl here can kill him. And he can't afford to be smug because the reality is very different from the show.

A harem forming naturally isn't the problem, they are allowed to love who they love. Also Jaune can grow into a phenomenal huntsman and they can get a happy ending against Salem. It's just that everyone seems to forget the last line for the introduction of the show, the introduction that is Salem's voice I believe in the first episode- Strength alone can not grant victory.

It is exactly due to that statement that Jaune's Paladin archetype works so well. They need strength, but more than that, they need to know how to work together with others as well and not make the villains' jobs easier for five seconds.

My problem is partially with the current Draconian Remnant story that Leecifer currently has going own. Now his SI has a lot of mental trauma and problems but instead of writing the story in a way that Jaune SI can heal and grow from it, it's just him throwing his weight around because he is a dragon, creating unnecessary drama based on the problems he made in the story(if anyone knows his Yang characterisation, you know what I am talking about).

To be honest I was agreeing with few of his points about the college scenario and things like that but later he is just, enabling his SI's behaviour and it's been way past 100 chapters(around 180 or so I believe) and that's enough time to start working on your character faults rather than say still relying on Pyrrha as an emotional and maybe even an ideological crutch.

My problem with his story is just the same as my Problem with RWBY show proper - I like it too much to not consider the bad points.

I love that his SI isn't afraid to take charge, I love the worldbuilding, I love how he is trying to help his teammates grow, I love the interplay he has with Ozpin, I slightly dislike the old trope of making Ruby as Qrow's daughter but whatever, I love that he trying to be smart with his growth, I like how he is trying to deal with his Jaune's trauma with the physical scarring due to a fight.

I just don't like the SI's emotional immaturity and constant need to explain himself in his thoughts or being ready to go with the nuclear option once a group has an issue. It just often feels like he is trying to pull the world to his ideals and also creating the resistance.
