Jaune: The insatiable Urge to get a Trans-Girl Pregnant.

Ruby:

[bridgyrose]

As someome who is kinda new to being trans fem, could I ask for a Trans!Nora and Trans!Ruby content? Anything is fine by me.

Nora gave a sly grin and leaned against the doorway as she watched Ruby fumble while putting on a binder. “I told you that you’d try it eventually.” 

“I-its not what it looks like,” Ruby said as she finally slipped the binder in place, nearly freezing once she did. “You had it laying out and I just wanted to see how it felt. That’s all.” 

“And it has nothing to do with the way you’ve cut your hair?” Nora asked as she walked over to Ruby, looking the girl over. “What about those clothes you’ve been wearing recently? I know a lot of them used to belong to Jeanne before she transitioned.” 

“My usual combat gear has been getting in the way and men’s clothes seem to fit better. There’s nothing deeper-” 

“You can be honest with me.” Nora put a hand on Ruby’s shoulder. “If you want to be a guy, I know a few people who can help.” 

Ruby let out a heavy sigh and looked away from the mirror. “What if… what if its a mistake?” 

“Then its a mistake and you go back to being a girl. Its not really that much of an issue.” 

“Easy for you to say. You already know who you are.” 

Nora wrapped her arms around Ruby and pressed in behind her. “I do now, but I didnt always know. Before going to Beacon, the most I’d ever done was dress in girls clothes when Ren and I were travelling, but I hadnt quite figured myself out. And it wasnt until we started at Beacon that I started living as a girl to see if its what I wanted. All those thoughts about it being a mistake or just a phase still havent gone away. It took months until I realized this is what I really wanted. But you’ll never know what’s true and what’s just anxiety until you take the plunge.” 

“I’m… I’m not sure I can.” Ruby looked at herself again and placed a hand on her bound chest. “I do like how I look when I dress as a guy and I’ve never really was one of the girls, but… what if Dad and Yang dont understand? Or what if they think that I’m trying to remove whatever reminders they have left of mom?” 

“Then that’s their loss.” 

“I cant just hurt them-” 

“And you wouldnt be.” Nora kissed Ruby’s cheek and smiled at her. “I love you no matter who you are. Man or woman, it doesnt matter to me. But we also dont have to do this all at once. We can take it as slowly as you need it. Start with the binder and see how it feels. Then we can work on a name or anything else that you want to try. Baby steps.” 

Ruby nodded and leaned in to kiss Nora. “Is that advice really for me? Or something you wish you were told?” 

“Maybe a bit of both. But this isnt about me, this about making sure you feel like yourself. But first, if we’re going to do baby steps, we need to get you some new clothes.” 

“What’s wrong with what I’m wearing?” Ruby asked as she looked herself over. “I like it.” 

Nora rolled her eyes and pulled at the hoodie that Ruby wore. “None of this really fits you. Jeanne is much taller than you and you look like a little kid raiding their siblings' clothes for dress up. If you want to look the part, you’ve gotta have something that fits right. You know, pants that arent too baggy, a hoodie that fits…” She pulled at Ruby’s sleeve and frowned. “And sleeves that dont go over your hands like this. If you try to fight grimm like this, you’ll be just like Jeanne was when she first started training.” 

“I wont be that bad.” 

“You can barely walk as is. Besides, we dont have to go shopping for much. Just pants that can fit you and maybe a couple shirts to wear when you’re feeling boyish. We’ll give it a week and see where you’re feeling after that. Then, we can figure out the next steps.” 

“And you’re sure you’re okay with this?” 

“Afraid I’m going to leave you?” Nora asked with a smile. “But yes, I am. Like I said, I love you no matter who you are. Which means you’re stuck with me.” 

Ruby nodded, then paused. “Why does it sound like you’re more excited about this than I am?” 

Nora grinned and pulled away. “Maybe I’ve thought about what you’d be like as a guy.” 

“Wait… what? What did you mean by that?” 

“We’ll want to hurry if we want to get to the shops before they close!” Nora yelled out as she left. 

“Nora!” Ruby called after. “What did you mean you’ve thought about what I’d be like as a guy?!”

Summary: Dying of old age had seemed like the best way to go. Having spent her life after taking the throne restoring her kingdom to its full glory, keeping it from falling into economic collapse and being pulled into an unnecessary and costly war. She has no real regrets. At least none that could have been fixed easily. She is content with the way she lived her life but it seems that the Gods have other plans for her.

Part of a Bi-Weekly challenge that is happening on a WhiteRose server I'm on. Enjoy this series that quickly spiraled out of control

So, I have a question about a headcanon and I want to be super clear that I am not questioning the validity of this headcanon, I’m just trying to learn some more about it.

Where did the trans!Ruby headcanon come from? Is it something about her aesthetic? Some dialogue with some key words I don’t recognize? Is it her instant and unquestioning acceptance of Penny as a real girl? I don’t know, but I really would like to.

I’m a cis guy and have only been adjacent to the trans community online for a couple of years, so I’m sure there’s a ton of stuff that just goes over my head. This hc is one of those things.

Thanks in advance for taking a minute to help me out.

Art by @spicybon, story by me. Short little dabble I did on the ruby appreciation server I was proud of and wanted to share.

“Crimson, you wearing a dress?”

“Y-yeah...” Qrow chuckled.

“I remember when I wore a skirt at Beacon. You like it?”

"Y-yeah, Uncle Qrow.” He fidgited in front of him, holding onto the hem of the skirt. Qrow cocked an eyebrow

“You okay?” He shook his head, & his body started to shake. His head was downcast as he said

“Uncle Qrow... would you.... would you be okay with my name being Ruby?” Qrow titled his head a little.

“Yeah, of course. This a nickname?” He shook his head. His voice broke & Qrow saw tears start running down his face.

“Uncle Qrow... Im not a boy.” Qrows mouth fell open a bit, his eyebrows raised. He looked at her as she cried before he embrassed her, & felt her wrap her arms around him, crying into his chest. He ran his hand over her hair.

“Ruby, huh? I like it.”

This time I'll ask for a one-shot prompt with a somewhat mundane premise:

Ruby's first time trying on a corset.

(Not as mundane as you think. This is actually something I've thought about doing before.)

Ruby watched her reflection as she moved around, keeping her eyes on the skirt and blouse she wore. Everything seemed to keep in place as she moved, but the longer she looked over her outfit, the more it felt like it was missing something. Maybe it was the importance Yang put on making a combat outfit unique or how she wanted to honor her mother in a way she’d be proud of, but it didnt feel completely like her. 

She made her way back to the closet and started to look through the rest of her clothes. Most of them had been from before she started to transition, but she was sure she could use something. Maybe some chains or belts to wrap around herself like some of the bands she listened to would or pouches she could wear around her hips to hold the ammo she’d use for Crescent Rose. 

“Everything alright, Rubes?” Yang asked as she walked into the bedroom. “Sounds like you’re fighting grimm up here.” 

Ruby nearly fell backwards as she pulled out a belt and a small pouch she had used for a halloween costume. “I’m fine.” 

“Putting together another cosplay?” 

“Trying to put together something to wear for combat.” Ruby grabbed her scissors and sewing kit, going to work on removing the straps to the pouch in order to adjust them for the belt. “Something that will set me apart from everyone else.” 

“Right.” Yang sighed and sat down on Ruby’s bed. “Its not something you should have to worry about yet. Its only your first year at Signal and any combat they run you through will be controlled with their own gear.” 

“I know but I want to get something together now. Especially since Qrow’s been talking about taking me on a short hunt to help me train with my scythe.” 

“Would you like any help?” 

Ruby let out a sigh as she finished adjusting the straps on the pouch and pulled the belt through to sew everything in place. “Maybe a second pair of eyes would help.” 

“Show me what you have.” 

Ruby nodded and finished getting the pouch in place. She put the belt around her waist, clipped her cloak in place, and straightened out her skirt. “So, what do you think?” 

Yang sat up a bit. “You look a lot like mom.” 

“I took some inspiration from the picture dad has of her from their Beacon days.”

“I think I have something that might work with this,” Yang said as she got up and rushed out the room. “I’ll be right back!” 

Ruby nodded and went to sit down on her bed as she waited for Yang, almost tapping her fingers on the bed. It wasnt that she didnt trust Yang and her fashion choices, but after getting enough hand-me-downs from her, she figured she could cut, tear, and sew anything she gave her into something that worked much better for her.

And yet, as she watched Yang come back in, she hadnt expected to see a black corset in her hands. “What’s that?” 

“A training corset that I bought a couple years ago.” Yang handed it over to Ruby. “I kept telling myself I’d use it but then I… never did. But something like this might work for you.” 

Ruby took the corset and looked it over. “Can you help me put it on?” 

“Sure.” 

Ruby took her cloak off and started to put the corset on, clipping everything into place. Once she double checked to make sure everything was set correctly, she let Yang lace it up. At first, it felt tight as it squeezed around her, but as she took a few breaths, it all seemed to set in place just right. And once it was all laced up, she stared at her reflection in the mirror and ran her hands down the corset, feeling the ribs through the fabric. 

She pulled her hands away from the corset and started to really look at her reflection. Not only did the corset seem to pull her outfit together, but it made her figure look more feminine than what she’d been used to and gave a bit more support to her chest, almost helping her look bigger than what she was. She wiped away a small tear as she took a deep breath. 

Yang put a hand on her shoulder. “Its not too tight is it? I can loosen it up-” 

“N-no, its… its fine,” Ruby interrupted, her voice almost shaking as she turned to face Yang. She couldnt help but pull her into a tight hug. “Its great, thank you.” 

Yang gently rubbed Ruby’s back. “I’m glad I could help, sis. I know a few shops we can look at for some other corsets. Maybe something less constricting but still able to keep everything in place.” 

Ruby pulled away and nodded. “Maybe in a bit. I’d like a few minutes to clean up.” 

“Just get me when you’re ready.” 

Ruby turned to face the mirror again and looked over her reflection, the smile on her face growing. She finally felt like herself.

[bridgyrose]

The son of Summer Rose was trained by Salem to be her perfect weapon. He arrives at Beacon Academy, only to come face to face with Ruby Rose, daughter of Summer Rose. Questioning his existence, the boy realized two things: one: he was a clone, two: he was miserable and hated seeing his "original self" happy. (Meant for a Trans!Ruby, tho you can do what you'd like.)

(Bold to assume Trans!Ruby isnt the default. That said, this one is a little longer so it will go under a page break.)

Reuben took a deep breath as he stared at Beacon Academy, his heart almost racing as the weight of his task finally hit. He was trained… born… to bring down Beacon for Salem. And now that he was here, he could finally complete his task. 

“Are you coming?” Cinder asked as she slung a pack over her shoulder. “We still need to get to our dorm.” 

“And you’re sure no one will question us being here?” Reuben asked as he looked at Cinder, still seeing the confidence in her eyes. “We can claim we’re from Haven all we want, but if no one recognizes us-” 

“Mercury, Emerald, and I attended classes for a year, so anyone we run into should recognize us. Even if it is just out of passing.” 

“And what about me? Salem never let me take any of the classes.” 

“As long as you can act like you belong, no one will question you,” Cinder said with a smirk. “But if anyone asks, you’re just a transfer student from Vale or Vacuo, whatever you want to tell people. Just so long as you dont draw attention to yourself.” 

Reuben nodded and followed behind Cinder, Emerald, and Mercury as they made their way through the halls of Beacon and towards their dorm. It was strange to see them all calm like this, he was more used to the way they fought and bickered any time Cinder tried to take charge. And yet, they acted as if they belonged as students. Quiet as they walked, confident that they belonged, just like the huntsmen that they were meant to kill. 

“I forgot it in the library!” 

Reuben paused as he heard a voice like his come from one of the dorms, his eyes catching the glimpse of a girl who looked just like him. He didnt catch anything that the girl or Cinder had started to talk about, only able to focus on the girl herself. She looked so much like his mom, like him… it was like looking in a mirror. Or at least one that showed him as a girl instead of a guy. 

“Is he okay?” the girl asked as she took a glance at Reuben. 

“He’s not a social one,” Cinder said. “But you said you could take us to the dorms?” 

“Of course! Just follow me.” 

Mercury nudged Reuben. “See someone you like?” 

“Something like that…” Reuben said, still unable to look away from the girl. This had to have been the Ruby that Cinder mentioned that kept getting in her way. A girl in a red cloak with silver eyes. She was younger than he thought she’d be, but seeing someone who looked like him, who was happy… a girl… 

It made his heart ache. 

He was pulled out of his thoughts as he felt Emerald stop him before he ran into Cinder as she stopped in front of their dorm room. He straightened up a bit, his eyes still on Ruby as she started to rush off. 

“Here’s your dorm!” Ruby called out. “Sorry I cant stay and chat but I need to get back to my team!” 

“Thank you for showing us,” Cinder called back, a false smile still on her lips until she walked into the dorm. “We’ll need to keep an eye on her and her team.” 

Emerald nodded and stepped closer to Cinder. “I can spy on them and make sure they dont-” 

“No need to go that far,” Cinder interrupted. “We’ll only draw attention to ourselves if we wander around the halls just to spy on them. At least for now. I need a bit of time to figure out our plan. Until then, I want the three of you to start to get to know the others around here. The more information we can learn about Beacon, the better.” 

Emerald and Mercury both nodded before heading their own ways, but Reuben could only seem to stand in place. His mind raced with all the thoughts and questions he had pushed away for years when he thought all of them were pointless. He was Summer’s only child, he was born to be a weapon to take on Ozpin and the rest of his circle, to assist Cinder with obtaining the relics to ensure Salem’s victory. 

So why did it all feel… fake? 

His life wasnt fake, he knew that much. He had memories of Salem raising him, Hazel and Tyrian training him how to fight and survive. He could remember when Cinder was brought to the castle, alone and hurt and that he was the first and only person to treat her as an equal, as someone who deserved to be there. There were the beatings for failure, the lessons from Watts on how to use a scroll to hack into cameras and how to use technology to his advantage, the survival training he underwent, forging his own weapon…

All of it rushed through his mind, but no matter how real it all was, it all felt manufactured. 

Like his life was just a lie. 

That nothing he did seemed to matter. 

That maybe there was something more. 

“Are you just going to stand there?” Cinder asked. 

Reuben felt his mouth move as the words started to come out, his voice nearly shaking. “Why… why didnt you tell me… that Ruby looks like me?” 

“It didnt matter to the mission.” 

“It matters to me!” 

“And why does it matter so much?” Cinder asked as she dragged a finger across his cheek. “I told you, she’s nothing more than a nuisance. A nuisance that I will deal with. All I need is for you to focus on your mission.” 

“As you wish,” Reuben answered.

“Good. Now please, gather as much information about Beacon as you can. With the Vytal Festival coming up, I want to make sure everything is ready by the end of the tournament.”

Reuben nodded and started to make his way through the hall away from the dorm, his eyes focused on each student he passed. He didnt understand why, but he wanted to find Ruby. Maybe it was the anger gnawing at his heart that she was happy and he wasnt, or maybe it was his desire to find out who or what exactly she was. Either way, he needed answers that Cinder wasnt giving him. 

He stopped at the doorway to the library once he saw Ruby putting away the cards to a board game. With a few calming breaths, he made his way in to help her. “Need help?” 

“I’m almost finished,” Ruby answered as she gathered up the rest of the cards. “Yang would kill me if I left this again.” 

Reuben tilted his head curiously. “Yang?” 

“Yang’s my sister.” Ruby finished packing up the game and looked up at Reuben with a smile. “Oh, its you again. Finding everything alright?” 

“Mostly. Just… wandering around to get the layout of Beacon. Its different from Haven.” 

“Beacon can be a bit overwhelming at first for most people, but you’ll get used to the size.” 

Reuben gave Ruby a soft smile as he looked her over once more. It’d be easy to confuse the two of them as siblings, though he couldnt seem to understand why she seemed so happy. She was clearly the youngest one here besides himself, so that couldnt be easy on her. And yet, the smile she wore seemed genuine, if nervous. 

“Everything okay?” Ruby asked. 

“Y-yeah, just… admiring your-” the words lingered on his tongue as he tried to find an excuse for staring. “-your cloak! It looks a lot like mine, just red instead.” 

Ruby moved her cloak a bit. “It was my mom’s before she went missing. When I was a kid, Dad said she made it for me to wear when I was older, but I’m not sure how much I believe him on that.” 

“I’m sorry for your loss.” 

“I’ve been over it, mostly, but right now, I just want to focus on being a huntress like Summer was.” 

“S-Summer?” Reuben asked, his words almost hesitant as he spoke. “Summer Rose?” 

Ruby nodded. “Yeah, that’s my mom.” 

“But… but she’s…” Reuben held his head as it felt like something was pounding inside it while memories flooded in. Summer was supposed to be his mother. And yet, he couldnt seem to remember anything about her. Not her face or her touch, just Salem and her voice. He reached into his pocket to find his medicine, eyes widening when he didnt have it on him.

He felt a hand on his shoulder and he instinctively flinched away, reaching for the scythe he was used to carrying on his back, only gripping at air. 

Ruby pulled back. “Are you sure everything’s okay? I can take you to the infirmary-” 

“I’m fine!” Reuben snarled out, his breath shaking as he spoke. “I-I just… I just need some air.” 

“I can help you get outside-” 

Reuben didnt wait for Ruby to finish her offer as he rushed off with his semblance, black and red petals trailing behind him as he made his way out towards the courtyard. Memories continued to flood back in, replacing the ones he’d known. He remembered seeing a tube with a strange liquid in it, seeing Salem when his eyes first opened…

He finally stopped once he nearly ran into a tree, struggling for breath as his head continued to spin until only the truth ran through his mind. He was a clone of Summer’s son… of her daughter. Her happiness only seemed to fuel the anger that festered inside of him along with the lies that Salem had made him believe. His eyes flashed from silver to red and back to silver as he finally was able to catch his breath. 

There were still a few truths he knew. He was a weapon created by Salem. His mission was to help bring down Beacon. He had no idea what would make him happy, only a misery that seemed to engulf him whenever he looked at himself. 

And he hated Ruby. 

Reuben squeezed against the tree to try to release his anger, his nails digging into the bark. Ruby had to become as miserable as he was, and he’d turn everyone against her to do it. 

[bridgyrose]

I'm very scared but very curious... Can we have more of that AU where neo and Ruby were childhood friends?

(Look, I already had a slight plan for this, so I'm not going to deviate far)

“This is a terrible idea,” Yang said as she followed Ruby. “How sure are you that she’s still the Trivia that you… that we knew? She’s been working with Cinder, she’s tried to kill you, she’s stabbed you… you need to let her go.” 

“I cant let her go!” Ruby paused in her step and looked around to see if Neo was still nearby. Her heart pounded in her chest with each breath as she tried to keep herself calm, the sounds from the forest keeping her on edge. “I… I cant let her go again. She really is… was Trivia and I have to know what changed. What led Neo to be like this, why she’s working for Salem and Cinder and not a huntress like she wanted to be.” 

“And what if there isnt?” 

“Of course there’s-”

“But what if there isnt, Ruby?” Yang sighed and sat down on a log. “What if the Trivia you knew is gone? I know you’ve been looking into finding answers about her, but we both know the truth: Trivia died when her home was burned down. And… I know that those were the answers you found when you started looking into it.” 

“But Neo is Trivia! She’s right there in front of us-” 

“And clearly she’s not the same person that we knew. For your own safety you need to give her up.” 

“I’m not giving up on another person I loved!” A tear started to run down Ruby’s cheek as her hand shook at her side. “I know she’s still in there and I’ll prove it!” 

“Wait Ruby-” 

Ruby didnt wait for Yang to finish talking, rushing off with her semblance in a flurry of petals as she went deeper and deeper into the forest. Sure, she didnt quite know where Neo was, but that didnt matter. She wasnt leaving this place without her or the rest of her friends and she still had to find Blake. But she had to find Neo first. She had to make sure that Neo was who she thought she was..

Ruby dropped her semblance and caught herself as she came to a stop, looking around the forest for any sign of Neo. Her eyes caught the large tree looming in the distance, slightly disappointed that she still wasnt any closer to it, and with no sign of Neo around, she was afraid she might have ended up getting lost while leaving Yang behind. She sat down and checked over the wound she bandaged up, wincing as she pulled the bandage away. The stab wound had started to heal slowly, but pain still radiated from it. She leaned back and sighed, looking up at the sky as the clouds started to darken. 

The bushes started to rustle as a strange creature made its way out, sniffing the air and muttering to itself. “Find. Eat. Fix. Take.” 

Ruby slowly started to get up and take a few steps back away, hoping she hadnt been seen yet. Her body tensed as she stepped on a twig, freezing as she watched the creature turn to face her. 

“Snap. Danger. Fight. Trouble.” the creature muttered to itself as it charged at Ruby. 

Ruby started to run and use her semblance to escape, coming in and out of her petals as her mind raced, no longer sure what she really wanted anymore. She was tired, but had to find Neo. She wanted to run, but she couldnt force herself to run with her semblance like she had before, her body feeling heavier and heavier as she continued moving. Her leg gave out as she tripped over the roots of the nearby trees, dropping to the ground. 

The creature pinned her to the ground and lowered itself, mouth starting to with a *crack*. “Caught. Hungry. Feed. Eat.” 

Ruby closed her eyes and tensed her body, waiting for the bite that she was sure was coming. Her eyes snapped open as she heard a blood curdling scream from the creature as it let go and pulled back. Without another thought, she picked herself up and took a few steps back. A smile crossed her lips as she saw Neo behind the creature, pulling her blade away from it. “Neo!” 

Neo looked over at Ruby and glared, stabbing at the creature a few more times until it ran off. Finally, she took a few steps towards her, blade of her parasol pointed to Ruby. 

Ruby took a small step back, then started to walk forward. “Neo, I’ve been looking for you. We… we need to talk.” 

Neo frowned and kept her blade trained on Ruby. 

“Please, I… I want to know what happened to you.” 

Neo let out a silent sigh and lowered her weapon. She turned away and tilted her head to motion for Ruby to follow her. 

Ruby smiled and kept behind Neo as she tried to catch up to her. “Thank you for trusting me.” 

Neo rolled her eyes and signed. “I dont. But I’m wont let this place kill you before I do.”
