I don't know why, but this made me think of that Planet of the Dad's episode of Fairly Oddparents. And it's funny to imagine Nora head shaped spaceships coming to Remnant demanding Ren

"Puny people of Remnant," the leader of the Nora space force began speaking upon a large screen, "We have come for one thing. The man known as Lie Ren. Hand him over, and we will leave you in peace. Deny us, and we're gonna break a lot of kneecaps. Also maple syrup, and pancakes."

The ships would turn to team JNPR and unanimously say while waving, "also hi Jaune-Jaune! Hi Pyr-Pyr!"
 
A few prompts:

-The Beacon students have to do their own laundry and that can leave a lot of time for sitting around waiting for clothes to be cleaned. Nighttime conversations between unlikely people. Let's explore this.

-Jaune's got a pet, of sorts. A creature that imprinted on him after hatching. It's an unusual beast but one that's fiercely protective of him... And can breathe atomic fire. Yes, it's Godzilla.

-Ruby does have other relatives, of sorts. A somewhat dysfunctional man and his mother who were in Vale's intelligence community for decades took Summer in and raised her after she was orphaned. Well they tried, anyway. Today, Ruby knows them as Uncle Sterling and Granny Malory. The world knows them as Sterling and Malory Archer.

Was reading a typical Jaune kicked out of beacon fic and the thing that annoys me is the idea of rwbynr getting upset with Jaune over his transcripts considering Nora, Ren, and Blake didn't attend prep schools. Weiss you could make an argument for but at the same time either she or someone else would point out that still passed the initiation process/ screening and is keeping up in classes.

This did give me two ideas though.

1st is Ozpin just has take the same test Blake took for aspirants who don't come from traditional education backgrounds.

2nd. Is Jaune does get expelled but Weiss gives him an offer. Turns out she called in a favor with winter and there's an opening on a team in Atlas and Jaune has an interview.

Jaune x Coco

Jnpr divides up the team chores and Jaune ends up with laundry. Not wanting to deal with the crowds he chooses to do it at a later hour. There he runs into Coco who's the only other person there. Doesn't recognizes her because she dresses down in a hoodie, sweatpants, ect.

Basically taking some inspiration from smoking behind the supermarket with you.

The fight with Cordovin had gone sideways, especially as the Leviathan emerged from the ocean at the sounds of their battle, and Jaune was growing worried at their chances.

"Damn it there's gotta be something we can try," he began thinking before his eyes widened, "that's it!"

"Jaune get back!" Weiss yelled seeing him rush to the cliff edge.

Jaune ignored her, stopped at the edge, then took a breath, "BUDDDDDDYYYYYY!"

His yell prompted confusion from everyone, before the ocean began shaking again.

"Oh don't tell me it's another Leviathan," Nora groaned.

But Jaune smiled as he saw familiar shapes rising from the water, "Kinda, but this one's with me."

To everyone's surprise, a titanic sized reptilian beast burst from the ocean, grabbing the Leviathan's head, and slammed it into the ocean. But then the beast started glowing blue, before unleashing a beam of pure energy from its mouth upon the Grimm. Needless to say it was dead in a matter of moments. Then the beast turned to them, growling as it approached Jaune.

"Stay away from him!" Ruby yelled, struggling to stand. The beast seemed to snort in amusement as it continued, before letting out a loud roar right at the blond.

Said blond let out his own roar, before a goofy smile formed on his face, "Buddy! Man how long has it been? Look how big you've gotten!"

The others could only watch in confused shock as the skyscraper sized beast began nuzzling against the blond who started scratching its nose affectionately.

"....and I believed Nora attracted weirdness," Ren muttered.

"Oh! Oh! Can I pet him to Jaune-Jaune?!" Nora however wanted to see what the beast felt like, hopping in place excitedly.

Stillhaven New
The Link — Stillhaven (working name)

A planned Valean community, maybe a few hours from the city by Bullhead, sold as a "free trial of next-generation civic health." Every citizen receives a neural link tied to a local CCT node. Marketing language: Feel safely. Live openly. Be of one mind.

The stated science: Negative emotions is treated as a public-health emission, like smoke. The Link detects rising cortisol/Aura turbulence and damps the peak before it leaves the skull as a Grimm-lure. People still feel things. They just don't peak.

Daily life looks gentle. Wide streets, soft lighting, no sirens. Arguments end early because both parties feel the heat get sanded off. Funerals are short and strangely dry-eyed. Children laugh, but the laugh has a ceiling.

What the Link actually does
  • Clips spikes: panic, fury, grief, jealousy, ecstasy — anything high-amplitude.
  • Leaves a warm baseline: mild contentment, mild concern, mild affection.
  • Logs everything to the node. "For calibration."
  • Can push as well as pull. Officially unused. Unofficially, the town charter allows "emergency affect management" during Grimm alerts: dump a wave of calm, or, in one classified protocol, a wave of focused dread aimed away from the residential grid to bait Grimm into a killbox. Or all the emotion into one person as a sacrifice to the Grimm.

That last protocol is the loaded gun in the drawer. Because whoever controls the Link controls the entire town.

The downsides?

  • Rebound. Take the Link off and six months of unspent feeling arrives in an hour. People who leave Stillhaven sometimes die of it — heart, stroke, or they just scream until they go insane.
  • Semblance starvation. A lot of Semblances are tied to will, love, rage, grief, or identity. Kids raised on the Link often cannot unlock. Adults who had one find it going quiet. The town calls this "stability." Huntsmen call it crippling the next generation.
  • Grief that cannot finish. You cannot complete mourning if the peak is illegal. Houses fill with people who are "fine" and also hollow.
  • Compliance creep. Dissent feels physically unpleasant. Not pain — just a fog and a nudge back toward the mean. After a few years, residents start pre-censoring themselves so the Link never has to work.
  • The Watchers. A small admin caste can read the town's emotional weather map in real time. They know who is about to crack. They decide whether to soothe, isolate, "recalibrate," or remove the problem entirely.
What can you do with this idea?

Sounds like that drug from the movie Equilibrium.
 
Team JSMN (Jasmine)

A lot more people died during the Fall of Beacon, including Ren and Nora. With Ruby still in a coma with no signs of waking up anytime soon, and Jaune seeking answers, he heads out with a group of students who are also the only survivors of their teams: May Zedong, Ciel Soliel, and Neon Katt. As they journey across Mistral, they'll rely on each other not only to survive but also to heal.

Still a work in progress, but some ideas I have for it:

1. Qrow staying behind to watch over Ruby and help Yang.

2. Tyrian goes to Patch to kill Ruby, ending up in a fight with Tai and Qrow, with Yang finally putting on her arm and joining in.

3. Oscar either travels to Patch or meets up with JSMN in Mistral; thus, they don't learn about Salem till much later on.

4. While Jaune does upgrade his armor and add the materials from Pyrrha's weapons to his shield, he doesn't get the giant sword mode; instead, he starts using Ren and Nora's weapons, although he does eventually give Stormflower to Ciel after her weapons break.

5. Arslan is Pyrrha's former rival turned friend who has a one-on-one talk with Jaune to raise his spirits. She also convinced her to choose Beacon over Haven, and she feels guilty because she might have lived if she'd gone to Haven.

6. Jaune getting an "it's also a hammer" moment with Magnhild against Cinder during the battle of Haven.

7. Cinder dying during the battle of Haven.

8. Team JSMN getting the relic during the train separation.

9. Adam fails during his assassination attempt on Sienna, leading to a white fang civil war that is raging across Mistral. Menagerie is considered neutral ground, and part of Blake's part is eventually her and her parents siding with Sienna for peace.

10. JSMN and RWBY siding against each other in Atlas after the former tells Ironwood everything. This eventually prevents the fall of Atlas.

This is kinda cursed with the Buddy movie that was recently released.

For anyone who doesn't know, it's a surrealist horror film by the same creator as Too Many Cooks.
