Does Jaune still receive some training in the Household Arc AU?

"I have not, I wasn't... well I wasn't interested. My father was a layabout. And I really only had my ma, sisters, and grandfather. And while I liked my grandfather's stories. I saw what being a huntsman did to my dad, who ditched us. And my mom, while she WAS one. She doesn't like talking about her time. So I opted not to. And instead, I figured I'd end up in the healthcare field, my semblance being keen on that... though I didn't expect to end up as a caretaker for a team of huntresses."

Jaune wasn’t sure what to make of the scene in front of him.  His parent’s had left Saphron in charge while they were gone on a mission.  Them randomly leaving was something he was used to, but what he didn’t expect was for them to return with two children, both girls(?).  Inside he was crying, he already had 7 sisters, he didn’t need two more.  Though, that thought stopped when he realized they were shaking.  He took a deep breath and shivered, they had to be no older than 8, the same as him.  But they looked so, defeated.  It hurt watching them, so much so that in his own confusion he ran up to both of them and wrapped his lanky arms around them.  

Admittedly they were both taller than him, he was small for his age, but he was sure that he’d grow in time.  Both of them shivered in response to his touch, unsure of why this unknown child suddenly approached them only to wrap them both in his small arms.  He didn’t know himself either if he was being honest.

Turning to his parents he stared quietly waiting for an answer, his mother finally gave way.

“Jaune, these are Nora and Lie.”  She paused, as she noticed the way that Lie responded to his name, “Ren... his name is Ren.”  She corrected herself, noticing that the boy calmed after.

This piqued Jaune’s interest, it was a boy!  Turning to his dad who looked like he wanted to say something.  “Due to... unfortunate circumstances, they’ll be living with us going forward.  They’ll be your new sister and brother, Jaune.”  

Jaune blinked, so he was sorta right, they were going to be siblings, while he wanted to jump for joy about getting a brother.  He decided that it could wait, for some reason he just wanted to hug them.  All he knew was that he wanted to hold them.

________________________________________________________________

Right so here it is, one of the things I’ve been wanting to do for a while.  I’m not sure if this will be the format I go with al the time.  The idea is that Ren and Nora get adopted by the Arcs and before anyone wonders, this is totally going to be Renora and Arkos story, cause damn if I’m not consistent on my likes.  

The idea is that becaues of the incident, the trio will be trained, I’m not sure if I want them to be in Vale or if I may move them to Argus so they can meet Pyr early.  Because of what happened to the village, Jaune’s parents decided it was important to train their children.

Anyways reviews, hate, love, or whatever you want to throw at me is appreciated, never done this tumblr thing before!

Jaune Semblance Theory

Personally I like the idea that Jaune’s semblance is conditional, meaning it’s not passive, nor activated in the traditional sense. It’s not something he can just do whenever, but activates once certain requirements have been met. The requirement being self-sacrifice, which ties into his character inspiration, and his personality. Yes, the key to activation is self-sacrifice, not desire to protect.

The one instance we’ve been directed told is, “the first hints of a semblance,” what is happening? Jaune is being beaten, and threatened by CRDL after refusing to throw the sap at Pyrrha. Jaune tells Cardin he doesn’t care what happens to him, but that he’s not messing with his team, his friends. Protectiveness, right? But look again, Jaune is willing to sacrifice not only his physical well-being, but his spot at Beacon, his future as a huntsman. The whole reason he’s even at Beacon, the thing he willingly broke the law for, his biggest motivator for the first 3 volumes. But in that moment he made the choice that his friends were more important than all of that, that all his hopes and dreams, his desperate need for validation was less valuable to him, than his team.

And we haven’t seen him do that since, he’s wanted to protect his friends plenty of times, and no semblance. But he hasn’t been put into the position to consciously choose to sacrifice something he values since Vol 1. And we’ve been told that being unable to use a semblance without aura is the general rule, Jaune “without aura,” using himself as a human shield legitimately thinking he’ll die, just sounds like the perfect opportunity for a semblance activation doesn’t it? The semblance itself is an act of futility, and desperation, which I think is pretty fitting.

And I know the openings aren’t exactly the most reliable of sources, but the reveal of Jaune’s semblance in a JNR v. Hazel fight, in which Jaune get’s knocked out early leaving Ren & Nora to fight without him for a time. Obviously getting thrashed, Jaune finally activates his semblance in an effort to protect his team, by using himself as a meat shield, it’d be pretty great right? I mean, can you imagine the momentary panic Nora & Ren would experience thinking that Jaune might die like Pyrrha, and then the shock, and relief when it doesn’t happen.

I always see people commenting on Jaune being an older person yelling at Ruby. But I always take a look at their profiles and think. Whatnisntheir excuse for being brats then?
