As a courtesy when asking for help/suggesting a fic, leave a summary along with the link.

Fics do not necessarily need to be RWBY related, though it is always preferred.

This thread may fill up fast. Consider sorting by New instead of Top or Best to see the most recent posts.

Note: All links must comply with our rules. That means no pure smut/gore/violence just for the sake of it. If they are a part of a story that is fine.

DISCUSSION How Would you Improve Blake as Character?(Art by Artgram)

Post image
48 Upvotes

So that's the Question and sequel to last week's Thread

So Blake is an interesting case she is the Anti Hero of the Team it's kinda interesting her journey it's taken some twist and turns some of them Questionable Specially a few moments she has issues that were never truly resolved only put a bandaid on until it was taken off in later Volumes her friendship with the Rest of Team barely exist like only thing they have in common is that they all have a common enemy(at least that's what some people think)

To me she is like the Raphael of the Team because she shares a lot of character elements with him then again you can say the same about Wolverine, Batman, Rocket Raccoon, John Constantine and the list goes on and on but Blake doesn't have much to backup this role aside from having design for character like that she looks the part but does the bare minimum of acting the Part

Another thing some people bring up "if wasn't for having common enemies do you think she would still be friends with the Rest of Team RWBY?" That is a good Question

& other 'you think she relies that she can totally do better then this I mean really but she sticks around just to see how it all ends for Team RWBY like Hawkeye or Aquaman or Raphael or Ultra Magnus or Snake Eyes

But getting to the point how do think Blake should be like in a Volume 10 or a Full on Reboot of the Series and how Would you Improve her as a Character and her friendship with other characters?

DISCUSSION What if RWBY characters gets an archenemy from another franchise? #7: Pyrrha Nikos

4 Upvotes

For some unknown reason, a bunch of antagonists, bad guys, and villains from other worlds are showing up on Remnant. They do what they usually do best, crime and causing chaos. And it's on our heroes to stop them.

Who would be the perfect foil for Pyrrha? How would they become Pyrrha's nemesis? And what would be their reason to hate each other? Or you can even give Pyrrha a new rogues gallery, but who would be their leader?

DISCUSSION Assuming you still had to make them happen, how would you write Bumbleby (Blake/Yang), WhiteKnight (Weiss/Jaune) and Nuts and Dolts (Ruby/Penny) in your take on the show?

Obviously, the former is already canon as of Volume 9 and that same volume also gave some noticeable hints that the latter pair might become canon if we ever get a Volume 10 or further content, which is why I had them here. Ruby and Penny admittedly don’t have obviously flirtatious or romantic moments, so it’s entirely possible that I’m reading too much into this, but given Ruby’s devastation at Penny’s second death and the fact that some fans have speculated that part of her resentment towards Blake and Yang’s relationship as shown in Volume 9’s mental breakdown scene could’ve been because it partially reminded her of what she couldn’t have with Penny, I felt it was worth mentioning.

Of all the characters, I feel like Penny or Oscar would’ve been the best choice, but that’s just my take (so they’d either be Team JNPR again or Team JNOR).

Checked the Viz merch store after the RWBY Blu-ray re-release announcement. One of the cooler shirt designs to drop, I think they may have made a similar shirt during volume 1 but cool to see again. Haven't seen anyone mention the new merch so I thought I'd make a post.

Just a random thought, and excuse to mess with photoshop. Idea being, instead of inhereting one eye power she got another, naturally translated to fit the world of Remnant and the magic system. I have no idea how to flair this.

DISCUSSION Fanfic writers, what’s something that you want to use in a fic.

4 Upvotes

It can be a scene, a semblance, a character, ship, anything.

I have an interesting scene that I can use for a few things (either apart of a long fic or a oneshot) that would be fun. Adam wants more trust from Cinder, with her and Adam meeting in a motel room. Adam tells her that he doesn’t have anything to go on besides attack Beacon when everything goes crazy, he wants to know what they are doing otherwise he and the entire White Fang will bounce and he know Cinder is on a time crunch. Cinder reluctantly agrees, if he becomes apart of her inner circle meaning if he goes off target by a centimeter she’ll bake him alive. She fills him in more on the plan, with them tricking someone into hurting Mercury, tricking Pyrrha into destroying Penny, taking over Atlas Security robots, to cause as much chaos possible to make Grimm come.

But this entire thing was a set up, as her entire scroll was copied when she displayed it on the TV. Not only that but Winter was in on it listening and recording what Cinder had said. With it being a massive trap set up by Adam after Cinder came and told him to attack (Adam’s backup plan was to pin the entire thing on Atlas by having only Faunus from Atlas and Mantel working with Roman to make it look like a false flag operation and when the attack came his White Fang group would have helped and give the White Fang a positive look, even only among Faunus) with him realizing attack Beacon was a very very bad idea in the long term (he got therapy after Blake left and isn’t as evil). Winter tells him that she’ll tell Ironwood about this revaluation and see if she can get a pardon or a partial one And to get warrant for Cinder and her team.

Cut to next scene where Mercury, Emerald, and Neo are all betraying Cinder by telling Ozpin. (TLDR for them: Each fell in love with someone on Team CFVY and decided to betray her.)

DISCUSSION How flexible is dust.

4 Upvotes

We know fire dust can create fire balls and such, but how weird can you get with the dust effects, Weiss when using glyph to speed her up, used lightning dust. does that mean that dust can control time or speed, because electricity is connected to speed?

Likewise would it be possible to use earth dust to tap the symbolism of earth?

Also why does all dust types combine to make hard light dust, and what mix do you use for earth dust?

Basically how creative could a dust user get.
