Savage Jaune AU

Jaune: Dammit Cardin I can’t even tell what you’re doing! I guess I know how your girlfriend feels!

Cardin: *Punching harder* Shut! Up! Arc! *Cardin’s hand lets out a cracking sound, drops Jaune* AAAHH!

Jaune: Don‘t worry about it man. I’m sure there are some guys who can’t last longer than you, somewhere...

Cardin: *Holding his now broken hand* Grrrahhhhh!

Reminder jaune took a beating from cardin and smiled.

Because it was unlocked, keep up.

If Weiss didn't wanna walk in on Jaune and Winter then Weiss should never have left her room unlocked.

yeah WEISS!

This whole AU is amazing.

And I have a weird feeling that if/when the Belladonna’s knew where Blake was Kali would be pushing like hell for some kind of Marriage Agreement, and if Jaune won’t sign it Kali knows Mama Arc might.

councilman arc au) jaune starts a navy, mainly cause the newer sail ships are far more efficiant than the air ships and bull heads currently used for trade and a navy is needed to protect the supply lines. for some reason all of his new officers are female. that's kinda weird but he's not gonna question it. most of the jobs right now are just general logistics and getting everything set in motion. meanwhile ironwood tries to figure out what the "political mastermind" councilor arc is up to.

James Ironwood had a problem.

He had a problem with Vale, specifically with its now sole councilman. He did not count Ozpin, since Beacon’s headmaster rarely attended hearings and was, essentially, acting as a councilman in name only.

Jaune Arc was an unknown to the general. His family was known, sure, but the young man did not appear on any radar prior to his meteoric rise into the most powerful position in the kingdom.

That was not to mention the incredible amount of stuff the young man did in his short time as councilman. Corruption went down to historic lows, faunus rights were enforced, healthcare got better, taxes were lowered...the living standard in all of vale went up by quite a margin, a calculation that ensured the kingdom as a whole to become richer.

In the eyes of the general, this young man was a political mastermind. Which made it all the more difficult to discern his true motives. What was he up to? For what did he intend to use his office?

Simply put: How did his master plan look like?

-------------------------

Jaune had no idea what he was doing, only that he did it right.

Well, to say he had no idea was a bit of a stretch, maybe. True, he intended to make things better for the average citizen; true, he wanted corruption gone and to give Jacques Schnee the middle finger...

But did that mean that he had to have a plan for everything?

Well, no. Especially not in the matter right now.

“Wattra Ion, codename “Iowa”, at your service, councilman!”

Before him stood an oddly perky, and quite beautiful, young captain of the new Valean fleet. Jaune had decided that Vale should not over-rely on the Atlesian military and had begun construction of a Valean fleet, solely equipped to handle and exterminate Grimm.

On the high seas, that is, not in the air. Yes, air ships were valuable, but harder to replace and maintain than sea ships. Besides, trade by sea was becoming increasingly valuable, especially since Jaune intended to hash out a trade agreement with Menagerie, another move that infuriated racists everywhere and  ensure faunus support.

Hence a collection of new navy captains right before him.

Only a problem, well, two. First one was, all of these captains were inexplicably female, for whatever reason. How come no guy was able to make it through the aptitude test? Complacency?

Well, the other problem was more important, as it practically jumped into the councilman’s eyes.

“What’s up with your uniform?” It twas certainly not the standard uniform of the Valean navy, that was for sure. Nope, it was more revealing.

“Oh, this?” Iowa twirled around with a grin, stars twinkling in her eyes. “I customized it. You like?”

“I mean, um...” Now how could he say this delicately? ”Don’t you think it could distract others?“

The captain grinned at him for it. “Maybe I want it to be. Maybe...” She leaned in closer, giving hi a good eyeful of cleavage.

“I got my eye on a certain someone.”

With a wink, she retreated and filed back in the line of hopeful young ship captains.

Jaune already had a headache.

(Surprise, surprise! I dared to do it! FUCKING SUE ME! no please don’t)

Would the Huntresses name the dog ‘Happy’?

Puppy

Joanna:  What is that?

Fiona (holding a puppy): He followed me home!

May: Did it?

Fiona (mumbling): I followed him.

Robyn: You were lost weren’t you?

Fiona: The Signs Confused Me!

May: Wait a minute, that’s a Sheepdog

Fiona: No, no, nonononononono, don’t you start-

Joanna:  Awwwwwwwwww!  He herded you home!

Fiona: Shutup!

Robyn: Well in that case, I think we can make room, its good to have someone who can find you when you get lost.

Fiona: WHEN!?

I feel like Winter probably lives off just field rations on missions and whatever the academy/base served while she was there. So if Jaune ever made her 'home-cooking' she'd just melt.

winter pigs out

Penny's semblance is that she always knows which way north is, because M A G N E T S

Is...this a pvp joke because if so how dare- /lh

"Of course, she may regain her former partner very soon, when/if Winter defects."

This is Ciel erasure.

Still a fun idea though.

So we sure do have a lot of potential defectors this volume..

I mean the Ace Ops obviously, who are looking increasingly likely to defect all together.. but not everyone will be so lucky as to have a whole team that defects with them.

Penny already defected, and has essentially been fighting without a dedicated team or partner ever since. Of course, she may regain her former partner very soon, when/if Winter defects.

Then we have Emerald, who is almost definitely about to defect, and who has just been split up from her former partner.

And she may even be joined by Neo, who’s been looking equally uncomfy with her situation of late. Which could give us four newly minted heroes in need of a team to call their own...

Anyway what I’m saying is there is a golden opportunity for the v8 defection squad to get together and form team WEPN (weapon).

Because really.. can you imagine how terrifyingly intense they would be together??

They’d just be one big bundle of severe emotional trauma wrapped in a desperate need to feel useful... <3

I refuse to call this trio anything but ‘Stoplight’.

(work in progress)

Rosegarden + Lancaster = Chivalry

Do we need to use seasons though?

Since apparently they don't actually correlate to the powers you get.

Other sets of 4 could be neat.

Best I could come up with was Night Baron, Dawn Baron, Day Baron, and Dusk Baron.

What would be the male equivalent of the Maidens in RWBY?

Would they be called ‘Masters’? I’ve been wracking my brain around trying to think about it.

Yang: Jaune, your whole family is kinda badass.

Jaune: Ha ha. Yeah, I like to think so.

Yang: And I’m a badass...

Jaune: Well, yeah. That was never in question.

Yang: So I’m gonna be in your family!

Jaune: You’re gonna- Yang that’s not how that works.

Mama Arc: *From the other room* It’s how I ended up here!

Headcanon. Yang likes stories so she'll jaune tell her stories about his great grandfather and other arc stories
