Monochrome week Day 1: Checkmateys

Weiss: *smiling as she saw a ship through her spyglass* Looks like Admiral Rose is after us again.

Blake: Oh? Well, I dont think she’ll catch us this time.

Weiss: *putting the spyglass away* I dont doubt it. We’ve managed to run away each time so far.

Blake: *nodding* That we have. Still, she has gotten close before.

Weiss: I know, but with a captain like you, we’ll never go down without a fight.

Blake: *smiling and kissing Weiss* I know. May the White Fang Pirates continue liberating those in need.

Weiss: I’ll get the others ready for a fight.

Blake: Of course.

Weiss: *running off to get the crew ready*

Blake: *smiling like an idiot as she watched Weiss run off* Who’d of thought that I’d fall for the KIng’s daughter and manage to steal her away.

MonochromeWeek'19 Day 4: Parallels

We walk on separate paths but the world still brought me to you.

****

From being victims of physical and emotional abuse to running away to being stabbed on their sides, these two just parallel each other SO HARD.

Monochrome Week - Weapons Swap

A.K.A. - How Adam Taurus Should Have Ended

I added the top half of this illustration to add context to the bottom half, in which Weiss takes Yang's place in getting involved in the Blake-Adam conflict. It's a bit of my headcanon if Weiss and Blake stayed together during the fall of Beacon instead of splitting up - namely that they both get their abdominal scars from Adam stabbing them in his abusive, human-hating, Blake stalking, anti-Schnee rampage. Then Blake and Weiss help each other overcome the trauma Adam inflicted on them and defeat him together. This was also partially inspired by an ask answered by dashingicecream on tumblr. http://dashingicecream.tumblr.com/post/182465218712/if-you-could-rewrite-rwby-how-would-you-fit

I feel that there was lost potential by not having Weiss involved in this conflict considering the major conflict between the White Fang and the Schnee Dust Company, especially with the SDC branding revealed over Adam's left eye. Yang's involvement I can understand because of Blake brought up old experiences with Adam regarding Yang's anger when Cinder's faction set her up, and this arc helped to differentiate Yang and Adam's anger issues and aid Yang's character development. Perhaps Yang could still get caught up in this conflict as well (and maybe even retain both arms, hopefully). However, I believe there would be more significance in Weiss's involvement that would make it more meaningful and would really bolster both Blake's and her own character development. Adam's scar could open Weiss's eyes even more to the tainted legacy her father had created for her, and give her more motivation to defy and change said legacy, starting with fighting for someone she was once taught to hate. Adam would find the greatest revenge in killing one from the Schnees responsible for leaving the worst mark on him, and he'd feel even more betrayed seeing Blake fighting for said Schnee of all humans, especially if they became romantically involved. Blake would find greater solace in someone who at first distrusted faunus now fighting for her, and would readily defend her against their true antagonist.

I think that dealing the final blows with each other's weapons would be very symbolic of how much Blake and Weiss have grown together from each other, supporting one another.

Monochrome week day 2: Fairytale AU

Narrator: Long ago, there once was a princess locked in a tower. And a young prince came to rescue her.

Blake: *walking up to a tower* So, this is where the princess is locked up? Doesnt seem like much.

Blake: *starting to climb the tower, only to see a ladder fall down from the window*

Weiss: *looking down from the window* You know, if you wanted up, you only had to ask.

Blake: I didnt know I could.

Weiss: Well, go ahead and use that ladder to climb up. Might make things a bit easier on you.

Blake: *nodding and grabbing the ladder* If you have this, why dont you use it to climb down and leave?

Weiss: Because Father will know if I do.

Blake: *starting to climb up* Your father?

Weiss: *nodding* He locked me up here for my safe keeping. He wants me to marry whoever he deems worthy, but I dont have any desire for that.

Blake: And your refusal to leave this place?

Weiss: He would track me down and punish me.

Blake: *getting to the top of the latter and crawling into the window* You know, I could help you leave this place.

Weiss: *looking at the newcomer strangely* And how do you plan to do that?

Blake: *smiling and creating a few orbs with magic* If you fight by my side, we can get you away from your father.

Weiss: *picking up a staff and smiling* Lead the way.

Narrator: The two of them fought their way out of the tower, freeing Weiss from her father and creating a bond together.

Weiss: *smiling and holding Blake’s hand* Thank you for helping me escape.

Blake: *nodding* Of course. It wouldnt be fair of me to allow someone like you to be locked in the tower.

Weiss: *leaning in to kiss Blake* Maybe it’s time for your reward.

Blake: *leaning in as well* And what kind of reward would that be?

Weiss: *kissing Blake softly* A lovely companion and wife?

Blake: *kissing back* I would love it.

Narrator: The two fell in love and lived a long and happy life, roaming the countryside and attempting to bring peace to the land.Until one day, the prince fell ill.

Weiss: *holding Blake’s hand* You have to get better. We promised to be together, forever.

Blake: *smiling weakly and gently squeezing back* I promise, my love, we’ll always be together.

Weiss: *sighing and kissing Blake’s forehead* I know. I just can’t imagine losing you.

Blake: *closing her eyes* I just need to rest now.

Narrator: The prince passed away in her sleep and true to her word, she kept her promise always being with Weiss, watching out over her as she continued their work.

Please. Weiss is so extra.

My extra butt asked my bruh to choose between two date activities. They chose horseback riding.

Monochrome Week - Role Swap

A Schnee In Sheep's Clothes

...Weiss Schneep~... (Goddammit, Barb!)

In which Weiss, a human, disguises herself to blend in among faunus.

Weiss runs away from the SDC to support the White Fang - perhaps when it was peaceful under Ghira's leadership, or during it's early transition into theft and sabotage. Weiss's involvement and knowledge of the SDC helps the White Fang in many of their political movements, and later in stealing from them (such as an entire train car full of Dust). Eventually, Weiss and Blake become disillusioned to the White Fang's new radical direction and leave.

...Ilia and Tukson can come, too.

-OR-

Despite the discrimination they faced in their early history, faunus manage to become the majority population thanks to their superhuman traits, while the human minority rely heavily on technological advancements to keep up with the faunus.

Jacques Schnee, frustrated with the faunus's success over humans, secretly uses some of the SDC's profits to fund a terrorist group that shares his discriminatory views on the faunus. Ghira Belladonna, unable to forgive humans and thus overprotective of his family, establishes the White Fang as a large scale protection force against would-be human assailants. Adam Taurus, seeking revenge on humanity, takes the White Fang more radically and tries to either enslave or eradicate humanity.

-OR-

...well, the possibilities are endless. Feel free to share your ideas if you’d like.

Monochrome Week '19 Day 2: Weapon Swap

I like this prompt.

I always imagine team RWBY swapping weapons during battle (Yang tho...) It will be sooo cool 👌

(Then imagine the mishaps that happened when they first tried it 😂)
