Yang: So You And Jaune Are Dating Right?

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

*Dread Knight Jaune appears, *

Yang: Well, we found Jaune, I think. Still planning on laying one on him?

Weiss: . . .

Yang: I’ll admit it might be tricky, but if you go grab some flowers-

Weiss: Yang, go get behind him.

Yang: What!?

Weiss: Quit talking and pull his arms behind his back. I need an opening.

Yang: To do what? We don’t wanna hurt-

Weiss: *Applying chap-stick*

Yang:

O.O

Yang: My big mouth...

Ruby, in the Ever After: Sooo... did you kiss Blake once you two reunited?

Yang: Nah, the moment just wasn’t right. Look, she could actually be my future wife. Our first kiss has to be amazing.

Ruby: Awe, that's so sweet!

Weiss: So you chickened out like a little bitch?

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!

We could return to Argus? It’s separate, but still has Atlas-tier defense.

Whitley said the carriers are going to transport the civilians in the crater to safety but like where is safety whitley??? Where are you sending them??? Explain, child.

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)

Team RASN: I know you said Jaune was likely to carry-bang whichever teammate(s) he ends up with, but at this point it seems more likely he's gonna sisterzone them and end up with Yang or something. It seems like the smol girls will have to make the first move.

Indeed it seems so, but Yang and Jaune are friends.

So far.

Yang would lie if she said she wasn’t interested in Jaune.

(I have no clue as to who would be making the first move.)

Flawless

yang: wait you all bathe together?

ren: it was nora's idea

nora: team bathing build character

jaune: shes not wrong

~Beacon, Team RWBY Dorm~

Blake: Girls, girls, hey... Are anyone else's clothes just really itchy? I think, I think I should just leave them off. Just for time in the dorm, you know?

Weiss: BLAKE! STOP! BE DECENT!

Blake: *Shirt already gone, trying to shake her pants off without standing* We should all be doing this, sisterhood, no secrets. I don’t care if my friends can see my ears or my ass or my piercings.

Yang: *Covering Ruby’s eyes* Weiss! Stop squealing and close the curtains! Wait, what’s pierced?

Ruby: Yang let go of my face!

Blake: Ruby please. You need to call Team JNPR over. We’ll need to cuddle them for, for warmth when it gets cold tonight...

Weiss: BLAKE LET GO OF ME!

Blake: *Tugging on Weiss’s skirt* TELL THEM THEY NEED TO BRING FOOD WITH THEM! NIGHTS ARE WAY LONGER DURING WINTER!

Yang: Damn it guys!! Who left the catnip out again!? You know Blake isn’t allowed near it unsupervised!

Blake: *On cloud 69*

Right, but you’re missing the bit where Cinder would decide she wants an Arc-Fall baby so that she could have it fight Ruby’s Arc-Rose baby.

Jaune point his sword to Cinder.

Jaune: I'll kill you even it means my own death!

He immediately get jumped by Ruby to the ground.

Ruby: At least impregnate me first before you die!

Jaune: What the hell Ruby?!

Ruby began to undo Jaune's belt.

Ruby: Give us a few minutes!

Jaune: Sorry about this!

Cinder: Oh. I don't mind. Hmmm.

I wasn’t sure what you meant at first but damn does that work.

Consider: An AU where RNJR encounter Neo on the way to Mistral. After a tense standoff, they convince her that Cinder is her true target and that Ruby shouldn't be blamed for Roman's death. She reluctantly allies with them and then starts to realize she and the blonde one have a surprising amount in common. Against all odds, they bond over their shared past, goals, and maybe even find comfort in each other when emotions run high

You are describing my perfect version of the best Silent Knight AU timeline. Neo was already on her vendetta on Cinder. And a quick explanation by Ruby that it was a Grimm that killed him would only strengthen her resolve. And make a nice new hatred towards Grimm in time to help RNJR fight the Nuckelavee. 

Bonus points if Neo catches Jaune training alone in the woods and confronts him. After hearing him out, Neo suggests she help Jaune train late at night.

Then at Haven, I think Neo really could have helped Jaune break out of his fatalistic drive to fight Cinder. He was ready to kill her or be killed. But after Weiss gets hurt and Cinder escapes, I think Neo and Jaune would have AMPLE time to talk about their trauma and feelings. 

Can you imagine RNJR meeting Neo again after Beacon and seeing her in her torn up clothes, damaged parasol, and bowler hat? And while everyone else gears up to fight her Jaune just stares at her hat while he holds onto Pyrrha’s sash???

I just finished my first of the spotify writing prompts and you might be VERY interested in when it takes place.
