So which Jaune kids OT3 interactions do you guys think would happen?

Click to shrink...

Jaune x Ruby x Blake - lots of hilarious disagreements over house pets. Cats vs Dogs. On the other hand - the craziest games of tag. Also always trying to one-up their cousins - children of Aqua, Megumin and Darkness. Them growing up is forever remembered in Radian as The Chuuni Wars.

Jaune x Weiss x Pyrrha - really, really spoiled kids as both girls shower them with affection due to their emotionally deprived childhoods, Jaune has to be the strict parent.

 

[AndrewJTalon]

Some more prompts:

-Jaune tells his dad that his advice "Be Confident" was insufficient. So Nick Arc decides to teach Jaune everything he knows about wooing women!

-Blake and Jaune's book club continues.

-Isabel starts giving Blake therapy. Poor, poor Isabel.

-Ren is introduced to martial arts movies. He is less than impressed and very deadpan about it. Which is hilarious. Hilarious enough his friends encourage him to start a YouTube Channel equivalent?

-Turns out that there was an attempt at a gynoid like Penny before her. She was also Polendinia's creation, but she was given the soul of a terminally ill woman that Polendinia deeply cared for. Her name was Hadaly Turquoise (after the first gynoid in science fiction, from the novel "The Future Eve", and the Turquoise is a color and in reference to the Blue Fairy from "Pinnochio".). She functioned well enough for a time but the transfer process was unstable... And so was she. At times violently, other times falling into a deep depression. So she was shut down and put into stasis until some kind of solution could be found. Everything Polendinia learned from this experience was poured into Penny, making Hadaly her mother after a fashion.

So what happens when Penny learns she has a mother and reactivates her?

[AndrewJTalon]

Still taking a break. I'm also potentially sick with the flu so that's great.

Here are some more ideas and prompts:

-Weiss Schnee has an embarrassing secret: She has a bit of a crush on Roman Torchwick. She has articles and newspaper clippings and everything! She just can't help it, he's so dashing!

-Pyrrha tries various hobbies since she really doesn't have any. Attempts include painting, pottery, model building, and cooking. Only the last one causes a lot of destruction.

-Nora tries to become a housewife to be domestic and get Ren's attention. And naturally there's only one person who can teach her: Jaune Arc.

-May is a really, REALLY good sniper. Like, an incredibly good sniper. She's an even better shot than Ruby AND Pyrrha. Which gets her a lot of attention that she frankly doesn't want. Which allows her and Pyrrha to bond a bit over not liking fame and attention.

-Ren did have to pickpocket sometimes as an orphan with Nora. A skill he still uses from time to time. Something that catches Emerald's attention, being a former thief herself.

Some Arc Clan Prompts:

-Jaune's distant cousin, Mike Nelson, comes for a visit with his two robot companions: Tom Servo and Crow T. Robot (Mystery Science Theater 3000).

-Another distant cousin, Rikku Arc (From Final Fantasy X) comes to visit. And she's a little too sweet on her distant cousin for Pyrrha's taste.

-Another distant cousin, Samus Aran-Arc, is one of Remnant's most formidable bounty hunters. And she's out for someone's head in Vale. (Metroid)

-Katsuki Bakugo, another distant cousin, is a Hunter-in-training from the island nation of Fuujin (basically Japan). His goal is to be the number one Huntsman in the world... And is competing with his childhood friend, Deku. Naturally Blake thinks they're into eachother. (My Hero Academia).

-Rangiku Matsumoto is a fantastic swordswoman from Fuujin (and a very distant cousin) who is utterly shameless and poses as a Huntress-in-training. Jaune tries to keep her from being too embarrassing. (Bleach)

Makes sense if you go by Roman book, he is a morally grey and if Weiss finds out about his link to shutting down the school for assassins she would be a fan...
Actually this would be interesting if Blake and her fight on who is responsible for the robberies
Blake defending the White Fang and Weiss defending Roman only for both to be wrong. Would be interesting lil thing to add to V2 ending if Weiss get an autograph after they capture him

-Pyrrha tries various hobbies since she really doesn't have any. Attempts include painting, pottery, model building, and cooking. Only the last one causes a lot of destruction.

Click to shrink...

didn't this happen already? Like she was happy cooking/baking only to cause destruction untold.
Could be Ren and Jaune trying to get Pyrrha a new hoppy like Painting is for fun not 'being good' and pottery you can just smack it down if you don't like it and start again leaving large room for error and very cathartic. Ruby and Jaune are Gundam builders and i will fight for this headcannon and Pyrrha getting into the hobby along side Nerd Yang [she is smart and fixed her high tech bike in a shed with basic tools]

-Nora tries to become a housewife to be domestic and get Ren's attention. And naturally there's only one person who can teach her: Jaune Arc.

Years later, while watching his second child on the swingset, with Nora nursing their third…

Ren: wait, that wasn't a practice justice of the peace… or a practice honeymoon… or a practice second wedding with my old fiancé… or a practice delivery… or a practice buying a house and looking for schools with my two practice wives and our practice kids… Jaune, what happened?

Jaune, in a similar predicament, only with maybe half of the named female characters in RWBY due to timeline convergences and wacky shenanigans: dude, I tried to help, but things got out of control and I've got my own troubles now. Pyrrha and Yang are competing to see who can have more kids, Ruby keeps making them deadly weapons for their birthdays, Glynda has baby rabies, and my mom just keeps egging them all on!

Ren, a rare smile as he watches his eldest play with some other kids: well, I guess this isn't so bad

Jaune: Ren, the number of my kids is almost at three digits. THREE. DIGITS. If it weren't for Nana and the royalties for our family I'd be going broke just feeding everyone

 

[AndrewJTalon]

Right. I am sick at home. Here's a different kind of prompt: Write backstories for these cities if they were in Remnant:

Spoiler

Use any worldbuilding seen previously in this thread to continue.

 

[Reader548]

That first one reminds me of the twins from ASOIAF. Maybe have them be similar to them? ruled by a rich and powerful house of hunters, who are nonetheless not very well respected because of their more 'mercenary' nature even by the standards of Hunters and their refusal to aid, or even shelter people in their city unless they provide sufficient compensation, either in the form of Lien; or some sort of valuable skill. Its made their house and city among the richest in Vale but is almost universally disliked at best and outright hated at worst.

I think it would have been cool to explore the spectrum of Hunters, from the ones like Ruby and Jaune who do it out of idealism, to the adrenaline junkies like Yang, and finally the one that was missing in the series, the people who do it for baser reasons: to get paid and to enjoy the celebrity status that being a Hunter should inevitably garner you.

 

[Bommel]

The first started as a simple bridge build for trade between two other cities, but that trade attracted both wealthy merchants and anyone who's on the run from the law, and eventually both of them made some small permanent buildings as a pitstop, taverns, etc.
Eventually this trade hub became its own city specialising trade with everyone close and far, which means it's poor in terms of raw resources, but very rich in trade and services.

This created a city with little in terms of Law, where money reigns supreme, and where you can by anything and everything for the right price.
Because of the large amount of wealth and little in terms of laws, there is a lot of criminals, so if you want to survive you either need to be strong, wealthy enough to buy protection, possibly both, or poor and clever.
This also means that the city has a lot of mercenaries and bodyguards for hire, and thus a pretty decent training ground for future Huntsmen and decent place for old Huntsmen to retire.


Number 4 has a colosseum, so they could have public gladiator fights there (just like in real life, actually killing an opponent is seen as extremely bad form, and fighters are seen as famous sports players), and they may also put other entertainment there, like theatre plays.
Pyrrha might be from there, considering her history.

 

[Abramus5250]

Prompt: either through technology or magic mystical mumbo jumbo, nearby Grimm pools instead change and start spawning animals. Problem is, these are extinct animals from prehistory and there's a hell of a lot to pick from. On the flip side, people with unlocked Auras can subdue and eventually fully tame these creatures, though doing so allows them to channel their Semblance through the animal . Question is, who gets what kind of prehistoric beasty?

Nora, of course, bonds with a Megatherium, a giant ground sloth about the size of an elephant.

What would everyone else get? Assume the animals magically can handle the atmosphere and current food or prey and whatnot.

Well, dire wolves aren't the size of a bus and technically aren't even actual wolves. Unless we're talking from other universes where they have the same name or something, like ASOIAF, and even then they aren't that big.

Bigger issue would be dire wolves that mesh with her Semblance and now you have hyper speedy wolves zooming everywhere.

They are canids, but a different part of the family tree. You wouldn't call a fox or a jackal a wolf, even though they are related. Similar situation, only they only really found out through genetic analysis. Plenty of things are getting reclassified through the same method, such as the American cheetah not being an actual cheetah, but a cheetah-like puma.

If Blake bonded with such a creature, perhaps an accurate Velociraptor? Forget Jurassic Park, these things weren't even knee high.

Ideas

- Jaune has another grandfather, or rather an adopted grandfather, named grandpops Edward or grandpops Newgate, who adopted Nick, is a famous pirate and still somewhat active in his old age, and can cause massive earthquakes with his Semblance by punching the air to make it crack.
This also means that Nick has an incredible number of brothers and sisters through adoption, which also gives Jaune and his sisters a massive amount of uncles and aunts.

- What if one of the girls had a precognition gift (unrelated to Semblances), and the visions are vague and confusing so they must be puzzled out and interpreted?
The idea has been done with Jaune, but the other girls might be an interesting twist on it.
Ruby already has her Silver Eyes destiny going on, so adding confusing visions of the future on top of it could add to her nervousness.
Weiss may use it to try to work against her father, and being a total Tsundere, she refuses to ask for help while having absolutely no tallent to figure out the visions onn her own.
Blake will absolutely try to use the precognitions to help out the Faunus and make up for her own misdoings, but because she has absoltely no control over what she's going to get, they're only very sometimes mildly helpfull while being often useless for it when they give visions about some bitchy teen called Cinder who is of no real impotance.
Yang's personality would be completely at odds with the abilities of a Seer, and thus the most fun in my opinion, and also make her very impulsive on acting on any divinations she would get, and thus would need others to rein her in, instead of the steriotypical where the Seers are the advisers.
NSFW addition to the idea: They could also get predictions on what would happen if they sleep with Jaune (something goes wrong and they end up pregnant), or on how they could get to bang him, and even with those consequences they don't care, consider it worth it, and go through wit it anyway.

 

[mgl1206]

Jaune stared at the door in front of him, his hand raised to knock but unmoving. He was worried about what he would say to get Weiss to help him, especially after all the times he'd annoyed her by asking her out.

Something which in hindsight he definitely regretted. The way he'd asked her out that is, not the asking her out part. Hopefully, now that he's stopped, she'd be willing to hear him out.

Taking a deep breath he lightly knocked on team RWBY's door and patiently waited. If he couldn't get Weiss's help then he could probably ask Ruby if she could help as well. It may not be a gun that he needed help making, but with how smart Ruby was he had no doubt she'd be able to help as well.

But as smart as Ruby was, he knew that Weiss was the dust expert, and a dust expert was what he needed right now.

A few more agonizing seconds passed before the door opened and a surprised Yang greeted him.

"What's up VB. Looking for Ruby?" Suppressing a groan at the unfortunate nickname, and a wince at the memory of their first meeting, Jaune continued with his main goal.

"Uh, no. I was. Is Weiss here? I wanted to ask her something." He tried not to wince at her questioning look, and he could only sigh in relief when she went back into the room.

"Hey Weiss-cream! Vomit-Boy wants to talk to you!" Taking a deep breath he tried to calm himself, but the sharp clacks of Weiss's footsteps only increased his anxiety. Seeing her, his breath betrayed him again like it always did, his heart skipping a beat, and he found himself unable to speak. She was breathtaking as always, and although he had no intention of pursuing her anymore, especially when she was pining after Neptune, a part of him was still in love with her.

"What is it Arc? You better not be asking me out again." he flinched at the tone of her voice, but he couldn't help but agree that he deserved it as he moved to deny the justified accusation.

"No no no no!" He flinched again at the questioning look. "Sorry, I uh, I kinda need your help making something," he spoke softly, unsure i asking her for help after all he'd done was even the right thing to do.

"Shouldn't you be asking Ruby then?"

"Maybe, but this isn't exactly a gun. It's mostly involving dust and you're the smartest person I know when it comes to dust. So you were the first person I thought I'd ask." He answered sheepishly, but he couldn't help but lighten up when he saw Weiss smile at the compliment.

"Well, maybe I can help. What exactly are you making?"

"I wanted to create something that'll allow Nora to activate her semblance safely." Weiss's eyebrow shot up as she examined him, and he couldn't help but shuffle uncomfortably under her gaze.

"And why now?"

"Well, it's Nora's birthday soon and I wanted to give her a present. So I thought why not kill two Grimm with one strike and give her something for her semblance as well." Silence took over as he finished. He could feel her judging gaze on him, and he couldn't bring himself to look back at her.

"Alright, I'll help." Surprised, Jaune looked up at Weiss to see her with a soft smile he'd never seen on her before, and it took his breath away. "Come on, Jaune. Let's go over the details in the library." Knocked out of his stupor, Jaune quietly followed behind the heiress, unsure of what had happened. But there was one thing he knew for sure, moving on from Weiss was going to be harder than he'd expected.

-----------

AN: This was just supposed to be about Jaune making a gift for his new sister, but it somehow turned into a White Knight story. Not sure how that happened but it did lol. But the reason why Weiss was colder at first was that she was testing Jaune and yes this is just after the dance.

 

[SharkCultist]

Ruby had seen monsters in her life, vicious creatures with claws and fangs.

She'd seen evil in her life, from petty selfishness, to people who just wanted to cause pain for the sake of pain.

But what she was looking at right now?

Was a fucking abomination.

It was some new form of Grimm. With thick powerful legs and a large body that looked like it would easily shrug off most bladed weaponry and bullets.

Unfortunately they weren't able to test that. Because the bastard had human children as a shield.

It stared at Ruby with its disgusting bulbous eyes and too large grin.

And then it fucking spoke.

"Well hi there miss! Do you wanna come play with Mr.Hugs?"

Brothers she was tempted to just say to hell with it and start swinging anyway.

And she might have. If her fucking back up wasn't also hugging the fucking thing!

Just because it doesn't have claws or fangs doesn't make it harmless! It's evil! E V I L!

And so Ruby had a borderline breakdown while Mr.Hugs completed it's evil mission.

Annoying the shit out of her and Ozpin.

Pyrrha; like, that is a serious no-brainer. When I first heard her talk about destiny, I honestly thought she had a clairvoyance ability apart from her Semblance ability.
