@rubrumflos-blog
Hi!! I’m very sorry I haven’t been here for...a while... I’ve actually started getting more active on my deku blog. I feel kinda bad, cuz I’m doing threads with people and I hate to disappoint. I still pop by here every now and then, though!
I’ll probs get a bigger grove back when the new volume comes out, though~
Examining the weapon, she couldn’t help but look in awe at the design. It…..It was nostalgic to her, just looking at her daughter’s work.
“…Ruby….It’s……It’s amazing……Well…In your terms: Super Cool. It reminds me of your Uncle’s weapon…and my own….Well…Mine was a concept…but, I never truly used it….I was a weapon geek…I loved weapons..Fabricating..Building them..All of that…If..If it’s still there, the prototype I made is in safe-keepings…..”
“Like mother, like daughter.” One of Ruby’s teammates muttered to another. Ruby didn’t hear it, only feeling a smile spread across her face.
“I love weapons too...” She looked at her own. “I’m really proud of her...made her from scratch!”
smallsmallrose:
“Oooh, getting clingy, are we?~” Blake teased, wrapping her other arm around Ruby with a light smirk.
“Maybeeeeee~”
She closed her eyes, resting her head on Blake’s shoulder.
"Um, sorry if this sounds rude, but how exactly did your cloak get stuck on the very TOP of that tree?"
There was no right answer for this. All she could do was laugh nervously. “Heh, well, you know...”
“Things...happen.”
Odd One Out
teamoliv:
Waiting up at the rooftop was mildly dull. Mildly. He hadn’t bothered going to whatever classes were next, just in case this girl was one to rush off immediately. He took to passing time by weaving some of his wires around the area using the chain-link fence around the top of the building. In combat these wires were mostly for traps and defensive formations. Right now, he just wanted something to dramatically vault off of once she finally arrived. Why not create an entrance? It left an impression after all. Once that was done, his smile widens and he starts to vanish from view again, the eerie smirk being the only thing visible as he leaps up to his artificial canopy.
He could hold his semblance for a while so long as he wasn’t disturbed. Cloaking himself was simple at this point. Objects as well- all he had to do was extend his aura around it as well. Provided this only worked on small things. He simply didn’t have the aura control for anything larger yet. Thankfully this time he had no extra baggage with him.
All that was left was to wait and hope she took the bait.
Ruby opened the door to the roof. She didn’t see anyone around. One hand held her cape as she stepped forward. A nervous habit she developed over the years, finding some small support from it. There was nothing about this she was comfortable with. But...whoever this person was, she didn’t want to hurt them. At the very least, even if she doesn’t like them, she wants to say it to their face. Instead of just not showing up.
“Um. Hello? It’s...me? I guess?”
UGH! That was SO dumb. This is NOT how you make a good impression, Ruby!
Wait, should she have brought her weapon? Is it rude to bring your deadly sniper-scythe when meeting a secret admirer? It probably is. Would it be rude when you’re doing it at a school for hunters? Maybe not. Hopefully. She didn’t have her weapon though. Shoot.
Her mind ran while. Why did this feel so creepy?? She was just on the roof of her school! Looking around, Ruby waited for the author of the note.
smallsmallrose:
“Well….That does help to hear a bit.” Blake smiles, nuzzling Ruby. “I guess I should stick with you at all times, then?” She joked.
“Mmmmm maybe...” She whined, hugging Blake’s arm.
rosefxllen:
To her, things were looking great. Being reunited with her daughter, and seeing that she was okay and well. Though, something did catch her eye.
“…Ruby….May I see your weapon?”
“Oh, sure.” Removing the folded scythe from her back, Ruby held her weapon. She handed the blade to her mother. Normally she didn’t like people touching it, but this was her mom. And it felt natural.
“I call her Crescent Rose.”
Crona's dark eyes looked between the girl with the red cape and the monstrous beast referred to as a 'grimm'. "You are very strong with that weapon," they said, speaking to the girl. "But this monster is my kill. I need to be the one who sleighs it. Please."
Ruby was confused. She’s never seen this person before. She saw someone being attacked by a grimm and stepped in to help. As a huntress though, she understood what the other was trying to do. Nodding, she used the backlash of Crescent Rose to jump away.
“Go for it!”
crona-is-ready-to-deal-with-this:
Crona’s hope of blowing off what had almost occurred was predictably dashed once they heard the silver-eyed girl approach them from behind. She sounded concerned, of course. Not angry or demanding answers like she should be. Why was it always the nicest of people who got caught up in their madness?
Crona looked up at this land’s broken moon. It was so weird. How was it that they were merely in another country and yet the moon looked completely different than the one back home? Shouldn’t it look the same no matter where they were?
They really didn’t fit into this picture. What were they even doing here? They knew they could only cause trouble, especially towards those who didn’t know them very well. What were they thinking?!
…..There….there wasn’t some small part of them that wanted to cause trouble, was there?
Damn it, they were supposed to be a good person!
Realizing they still hadn’t answered Ruby, they gulped to swallow their fear before turning to face her with a wobbly, nervous smile. “Y-Yes I….I was just having a night terror! Y-You get those sometimes, right? Y’know, hardships of battles and stuff? It really gets to you at night, right?”
@rubrumflos
She replied with a nod. Oh man, did she know how that was. Nights where the battle for Beacon replayed in her head over and over. That was never fun. Something in Ruby knew Crona wasn’t telling the whole story. It’s one thing to lash out at someone when you first wake up, but it totally different to jump up right away, ready to end a life.
“Hey, I don’t want to push anything. I know about not wanting to talk about things...” She paused. All she wanted to do was help, but she knows she can’t fix Crona’s problems after one conversation. “And I know we don’t know each other well...but I’d like to help you. If I can...”
She remembered what the thin teen had told her before. Experimented on by their mother, having their blood removed and replaced with some demon sword thing, even without the presumably gruesome details, she couldn’t imagine what that would do to a person. All of this made Ruby realize just how much she doesn’t know about Crona. They really are from another world entirely.
Crona could be dangerous. They clearly are dangerous. But Ruby wanted to give them trust. Maybe a little kindness could help, even a little.
smallsmallrose:
Blake held Ruby close to her, in an almost protective manner. “I wish there was more I could do to make you feel better……” She sat down, gently pulling Ruby with her so that they could both be sitting.
“You do enough.” She spoke, her voice chirping up a bit. “You, Yang and Weiss...you guys help just by being with me.”
Odd One Out
@rubrumflos Scene taking place at Beacon Academy.
Ruby Rose- Onyx had heard bits and pieces about the girl. She was said to be a wide-eyed little dreamer with endless enthusiasm, a weapon that Ivory would likely resonate with, curious eyes with an exceedingly rare silver hue, and a distinctive red cape she apparently never removed even when in uniform. More importantly than all of that, though, she was apparently let into Beacon Academy a full two years early on the headmaster’s express wishes. No one seemed to know precisely why, least of all the girl herself if he was hearing these rumors correctly.
Well then, perhaps it was time someone solved that little riddle. Finding the girl would be simple. All he had to do was pick out the red cape out of the Beacon uniforms. It was easiest to do so at the academy’s lunch time. Ah, there she was. A large group though. He’d want to avoid Schnee on principle. Perhaps it would be better if he waited? He needed to set the time and place on his own terms.
To this end, he had prepared a note ahead of time. While he had no genuine interest in the girl and while feigned letter from a secret admirer probably wasn’t the most assured way to secure an audience in any case, it was certainly plausible and quite entertaining even if things went wrong.
He never stopped being thankful for having an invisibility semblance. Passing by the table he saw them at, he carefully “dropped” the note near where they were seated as he passed by as silently as he could. If he did this right, she wouldn’t notice it until he was long gone. The note said to meet at a rooftop later that afternoon. All he had to do was make sure no nosy teammates decided to try and sneak along.
The cloaked girl wasn’t the best when it came to noticing her surroundings out of battle. While in battle, she could easily read the field and work accordingly. However when she was just resting? She had the situational awareness of a rock. Instead, it was her teammate Blake who noticed it. “Hey, I think someone dropped this...” She picked it up, examining the folded paper. Flipping it over, she saw a heart scribbled.
“Ooh! It’s a love letter!” Ruby exclaimed. “How romantic~”
“Let’s read it!” Yang moved her way over to Blake, trying to grab the note. However, the fanus moved her hand away. “What? No! This wasn’t meant for us.”
The blond pouted. “Well if we don’t read it, how will we know who to give it to?”
Weiss rolled her eyes, chiming in. “You guys are so immature.”
After some more arguing, Yang ended up with the letter. The team gathered around to read the letter. Upon seeing who it was for, everyone looked at their leader, who was visibly nervous.
“Ooh my baby sister has an admirer!” Yang clung to Ruby, who was not happy with the situation.
“What? Why me?” She complained. “I’m not good with this stuff!”
“It says to meet on the roof.” Blake read. “You should go.”
“What?!”
“It would be rude to ignore it.” Weiss added.
After another session of arguing talking things over, Ruby relented. She agreed to going to the roof, meeting this stranger. How was she supposed to handle this? She didn’t know this person! What if she did, though? Ugh, her head was spinning! That afternoon, she found herself making her way up to the rooftop.
“Okay, Ruby. You fight big, scary, evil monsters. You can handle someone having a crush on you. It’s practically the same thing!”
It’s not the same thing.
you so
fucking
precious
when you
SMILE 💖💖💖
smallsmallrose:
“You need to let yourself cry eventually, Ruby. If you let all those doors come crashing down at the wrong time. it could be deadly. You’ve been through so much, and you need a chance to mourn.”
“If you want to let it all out, please do. I won’t think any less of you. And I’m the only one here.”
She smiled a little. “I’m fine right now. Promise. Just thinking about it all, you know?”
She was quiet for a moment. Ruby did have a lot on her mind. Leaning against her teammate, it was nice to have a moment to breath.
AAAAAAA HI SORRY MUN HERE
I’ve been having some off days lately, which is why I haven’t replied lately! I’ve just been anti-social and unmotivated... Which really sucks. So I’m sorry to those who have been waiting. But I got drafts out now!
I still need to be more active on this blog, however, instead of waiting for replies, then not replying to those replies for a few days. You know like, reblog memes and all. But! Uh. Yeah. I guess I’m alive?
teamoliv:
“Let me guess,” Lapis mentions, looking right at Violet. “You overreacted and decided to just take your frustrations out on the first thing in your path.”
“Hey, I had a really bad day, okay?”
“Right.” He replies in total flat affect as if this was a common occurrence. “Pack your things up and get back to the dorm. If Cheshire finds out we’re going to have a problem, and I refuse to give him more authority than I absolutely have to.” He seemed to be totally ignoring the plights and commentary of Ruby’s team.
Seems like they were leaving. That was good. Even still, Ruby did feel a little bad. She knows how temperamental Yang can be on occasion, but that didn’t mean she wasn’t genuinely upset about something. Maybe this girl, Violet, was really bothered by something. Maybe something happened earlier that really upset her. Maybe it wasn’t just someone being violent, but someone honestly hurting.
As the pair started walking away, Ruby shouted out towards them. “Hey!” She was waving. “See you around, okay? Good luck in the festival!”
smallsmallrose:
“I take it it’s not all how you dreamed it to be like?” Blake sighed, running a hand through Ruby’s hair as she held Ruby close. “I used to have dreams like that too, when I was younger. That I could instantly make the world a better place.”
Leaning into the faunus’s embrace, Ruby nodded in response. “I still think like that. But...lately...it feels like reality is crashing down on me.” A frown fell onto her features. “I don’t want to break down, though. Not when everyone is looking to me...”
A laugh from her from Jaune’s comment. So they went through the same treatment just like them.
“Well, he would be right about that, would he?” A small smile from her, ruffling her hair. “I’m happy to see that you’ve made such great friends, Ruby.”
Her cheeks light up. It’s so strange, having her mother here. She never imagined having moments like these. She imagined them, of course, but she never thought they’d be real.
“Thanks, Mom...”
Crona's dark eyes looked between the girl with the red cape and the monstrous beast referred to as a 'grimm'. "You are very strong with that weapon," they said, speaking to the girl. "But this monster is my kill. I need to be the one who sleighs it. Please."
Ruby was confused. She’s never seen this person before. She saw someone being attacked by a grimm and stepped in to help. As a huntress though, she understood what the other was trying to do. Nodding, she used the backlash of Crescent Rose to jump away.
“Go for it!”
crona-is-ready-to-deal-with-this:
……Always keep your defenses up.
Turn your mind off? Let go of the knowledge that anyone could flip a switch and try to kill you? No, not even in your sleep. That would be idiotic.
You can rest, but keep your ears open for any attackers. You never know when they could strike. They could even-
“Wakey wakey~It’s your turn…”
Someone was touching them. What was it their turn for?! What was going on?!!
Crona’s eyes snapped open, their usual dark eyes lighting up in an iris hue. Their body jerked as they sprang forward onto the stranger, pinning their arms to the ground.
Act fast. Swift. They wouldn’t be killed in their sleep. They needed to act first. Use their blood to-
Before Crona could summon Ragnarok and finish what their instincts instructed them to do, their mind slowly began to clear up as they realized who it was they had just jumped on.
“R-Ruby!” Crona gasped, leaping off of her immediately. Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! What if they hadn’t snapped out of it?! What if they had actually hurt her?!! Couldn’t they do anything right?? Couldn’t they even sleep one night among friends without losing their mind??
Acting quickly, the swordsman grabbed Ruby’s empty sleeping bag and threw it over her body, covering her up completely. “I-I uh, pushed you on the ground because I was trying to tuck you in! Sorry if I was a bit rough there! I don’t know my own strength sometimes! Haha!”
They zipped over and pulled the bag down so it was tucked under Ruby’s chin. They gave a nervous smile, not even registering that this was not how you used a sleeping bag. “So um, rest easy now! I’ll stay up for four hours! Two for me, and two for Ragnarok! Sleep well!” They then jerked to their feet awkwardly while heading to the nearest tree, trying and failing to look as cheerful and non-panicked as possible.
@rubrumflos
Well, that was a shock, to say the least.
A small yelp came from the huntress as she was unexpectedly attacked, but it wasn’t loud enough to wake the others. Her back slammed against the ground, causing a small puff of dirt to rise. Confusion ran through her, eyes wide. Not quite with fear, however. It was mostly pure shock.
Just as quickly as they jumped onto her, Crona got up from Ruby, letting go of her arms. Before she could even sit up, she was hit with something else. It was her sleeping bag. “Gya-!” Honestly, for a moment she just kind of accepted it. What she didn’t accept was Crona’s lie.
Ruby knew that look in a person’s eye.
It was killing intent.
Sitting up, silver eyes followed to where Crona moved. It was obvious by the way they moved that they were freaked out. Ruby looked at them, worried what they might be thinking. She was worried too. Not just for her, though.
“Crona...”
“Are...you okay?”
