Ten Story Ideas Based On Playlist Shuffle:

Jester's Pity - The Coffin of Andy & Leyley, except it's Ruby & Yang (The Coffin of Yangy & Byby)

Perception Check - RWBY D&D; Weiss being a menace as a bard while Yang DMs. (SHORT!)

Into The Dark - Dark/Evil RWBY, either Black Beast Blake, Grimm Knight Jaune, or Survivor Ruby absolutely stomping our regular RWBY heroes, whilst waxing their villainous monologues (Faunus/Human disparity, Hero Worship unearned, or the fragility of teamwork once fractured).

The Promised Consort - ???? Some kind of god-based boss battle? (Might delete later)

Kings of Infinity - Evil Pyrrha vs GOD Jaune. The perfect warrior beating the absolute tar out of a walking talking wall of magic. She hits him with everything she's got, but he's not even fighting back; if anything, he's offering therapy she never asked for nor wanted.

WHO'S READY FOR TOMORROW - Oscar, having lived his entire life on the farm, enters Remnant Night City and meets Ruby. The two hit it off, maybe a romance blooms, but when has that ever worked in Night City? Ah, but that's later; for now, he's just wandering around with her.

Imagination - Honestly, just getting a PMV vibe from this. Nice beat to dance to. Story wise, maybe something with Sweetie Belle and Spike dancing together ("WHOO~!" is Pinkie popping up with confetti).

The Fire Inside - DevilSlayer AU; Qrow stylishly fights Demon!Tyrian.

The Triumph - Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Anime Intro. Scenes include Electivire blasting lighting, Mega Scizor tearing through trees, Chesnaught VS Lucario, Absol training Charcadet. Grass-Type starters roll out map. Drapion, Druddigon, Salazzle, Gengar, Kingambit, Gardevoir pass by menacingly. Chesnaught uses Rollout and Vine Whip to reach top of cliff, Lucario tosses aura attacks to stop him; close on them swinging punches at each other.

Broken - Tragic love story of some kind. LOTTA characters in mind. "Kiss the pain away" type relationship, kinda toxic yet enticing to the reader, especially if one of them is no longer there to make them better.

DevilSlayer AU

The realm of Remnant is fraught with peril. Murderers, rapists, and much worse scum by human standards pale before the existence of those who serve only to cause sufferings:

DEMONS

Thankfully for humanity, there are those who serve the public in the name of purging the lands of the terror that are the denizens of the infernal realm. The huntsman of the harbingers of Hell are known simply as demon slayers.

However, of these proud men and women on the frontlines between chaos and serenity, there exists one who has risen above them all. Known by many names, Yang Xiao Long is the Devil Slayer.

Daughter of a human and a demonic tribal leader, Yang is a deadly force on the side of humanity. Armed with her shot-gauntlets, Ember Celica, she hunts down and kills the worst of these demons; those centuries old, on par with the truly divine of the archangels themselves.

Though, she is not without her flaws. She is often hot-headed and quick to rush in, and easily agitated. Her weapon is only effective at close range, making distant targets a serious problem. She also holds a soft spot for those she deems cute, such as a demon-hunter knight, her half-angel half-sister, and a mysterious new cat-demon who tried to kill her.

But you're probably wondering where she fits into in this new chaotic chapter of existence called life, right? Well, this is the story so far:

Yang was hired to investigate a cult of devil-worshipping witches known as the Heralds of Salem that are currently holed up somewhere in Haven. Yang agrees to take the job (though she was turned down being paid up front) and is using this opportunity to train her protege/little sister, Ruby. Unfortunately, as soon as she walks into a bar and starts asking the wrong questions, she's attacked by Ursa and a rather beautiful-looking and mysterious woman with black hair. Before the fight can get really fun, the woman escapes after being interrupted by everyone's favorite blond-haired knight and his two lackeys. Looks like they aren't alone either; apparently escorting some kid through town to the other side of the continent.

Who is this kid, and why hire demon hunters to escort him?

Who is this mysterious black-haired beauty and why is she with these demons?

Will Ruby be able to prove herself, or will Yang lose more than just her arm this time?

And are the Heralds of Salem really here, and if so, where?

All this and more will be explained in this saga of blood, bone, and awful puns.
