Summary
What measures a hero? Is it the circumstances of birth, or is it one’s actions? Is it the warrant of one’s parents, or is it one’s own drive?
Ruby, and her cousin turned stepsister, Yang, are forced to care for each other ahead of their goal of Beacon: for the stigmata of culture is not easily forgotten, and the yoke weighs heavy on the pair in their homeland of Rhodes, desperate to escape the duties that would be levied by their ancestral families of diplomacy and war each.
Weiss Schnee’s upbringing is quite strenuous, traveling between Argus to see her remarried father’s family and remarried mother and stepsister as she prepares to take the company one day, with some difficulties in coping properly.
And Princess Blake Belladonna finds herself under the tutelage of a dangerous pair of firebrands: her Aunt Sienna, and her right-hand man, Adam Rainer Taurus.
For the World of Remnant is wide, and they find themself on a path of heroes and harrows, a path clad in stars and woven together, bound by fate.

Summary
When two people take each other's places in fate, how do they fare in the shoes of someone they were never meant to be?
In a Mistrali Orphanage, a young girl is found malnourished and broken, and is taken in by a kind Huntress.
(The Xiao-Long-Rose-Branwen family takes in a second child just after their first child's first birthday.)
A few years later, a silver-eyed child is found seeking shelter just outside that same orphanage. Lost and having no memory of who she is, she wanders until someone takes her in, seeing value in her silver eyes.
(Just days after the disappearance of Summer Rose, her family is attacked. Her youngest child is lost to the wind, the other two losing any memory of their third sibling after being stung with the potent venom of a scorpion Faunus.)
Cinder Rose moves on with her sister, Yang, neither of them remembering even the name of their youngest sibling or that they even have another sibling at all.
Ruby Fall is taken in by her new family, her new mother teaching her of the powers that lie dormant in her eyes. Her only memory of her past self is her name, but even her surname is lost to her.
A role reversal/switched at birth AU between Ruby and Cinder.

Summary
Years after the war with Salem ended with unceremonious victory, the world has begun to heal. But in the midst of it, some feel lost. Even though it's only up from here, Remnant is in a grey area between prosperity and despair.
Two of those people are Weiss Schnee and Ilia Amitola.
Weiss sees Atlas rising from rubble, but knows it will take far too long until she can actually have a hand in the process. So she seeks out other paths to follow, other people to help.
Ilia is finally loose from her old life in the White Fang, and with the help of the Belladonnas, she departs from Menagerie with plans to do nothing more than wander the world.
Both of them end up in Vale, meeting each other after years since they last met and realizing something. Without the looming threat of total annihilation, they quite like how things are going. They realize they enjoy taking each day as it comes. And after their first job finishes up, both of them can't help but realize something else.
Maybe it would be nice to have someone by their side along the way.

Summary
When Team RWBY gets roped into searching for a missing birthday boy, they split up and search separately. Yang and Blake go off into Vale to search the City while Ruby and Weiss stick to the Beacon Campus.
Weiss doesn't know how to react when Ruby prods her with some slightly invasive questions, but as soon as some booze gets involved at Jaune's birthday party, all bets are off.
When she wakes up the next day with a hangover bad enough to kill, all she can think to do it lie in bed and suffer. When Ruby eventually gets back though she explains just how bad Weiss was the previous night, coming up with a unique punishment for her.

Summary
"Where will this take us?" Ruby asked.
"Not where," the Blacksmith said. "When you are needed most."
—————
And sure, right before the Fall of Beacon definitely qualified as 'when they were needed most'. But could anyone really blame them for not taking the warning literally?

Summary
Weiss never went to Beacon. Beacons still fell, and the effects of it have ravaged all of Remnant. Atlas responded by tightening “anti-terrorism” laws (particularly on the faunus) and have allowed the Schnee Dust Company to keep violaters as slaves. On her twenty fifth birthday, Jacques gifts Weiss one of these slaves, hoping that having her own sex slave faunus would help her stay in the closet. It just so happens that this slave faunus is one Blake Belladonna who has rejoined the White Fang in the wake of Adam and Sienna’s enslavement and subsequent deaths. And Blake might just have something to say about becoming a sex slave for a Schnee.
Yes, this will be a dark slave fic, yes, Blake will be the top, ofc, don’t like, don’t read. But for those who do read, this will be a fun one, I promise. -

Summary
Reincarnation wasn't really in the plan for an Earth University student, especially not when he's being dropped into a world that he knows has a time limit before its potential destruction: Remnant. That time limit is especially worrying once he realizes he's trapped in the body of a toddler.
Tasked with his self-appointed quest and armed with the knowledge of the show, Scott Ophiuchus Ishvaltar must find ways to prepare himself and those he cares about for Salem, her minions, and the end of the world as they know it.
"For it is in insight that we discover opportunity. Through this, we become paragons of cunning and empathy to forge a brighter world. Infinite in understanding and bound by foresight, I release your souls, and by my knowledge, guide thee."
