It's a big step up from faking some transcripts, but he was dying, the other guy's dead, and said guy left a path open to Unlimited Powah, possibly enough to save Beacon and his partner. Sure, it might be spam mail, but he had to take the chance…aaand of course there's a catch. For Jaune Arc, power never comes easy and the road home is going to be a long, winding way full of peril.

When Jaune unlocked a Semblance based on a game system, he saw it as a chance to become more popular and impress girls, and so sank all his points into Charisma. Now the world needs saving and apparently he's supposed to be the one to do it, and this stupid Semblance doesn't come with a respec option. Welp. Time to embrace the bard inside, and see how far max Charisma can take you.

Jaune liked to think he knew his friends well, and his teammates better than anyone, but when his newly unlocked Semblance keeps inserting him into the dreams of those sleeping around him he'll have a chance to see the people he thinks he knows in a new light - whether he wants to or not. Can he keep his accidental invasions of privacy secret or will the nightmares force his hand?

Ozpin pays a bit more attention, and 2 lives are changed forever. Jaune Arc and Blake Belladonna, Beacon's pair of frauds, have nothing but each other and their weapons when they are kicked from the academy before school even begins. Now penniless and hopeless, their only option is to unite and form a team of freelance hunters. Together, they will do missions and shit.

Yeah, dying was not very pleasant, I suppose. But hey, at least this ain't the end for me, because some god thought it was a good idea to choose me as a Gamer, and while I'm pretty sure a 16 years old is not qualified for this shit, I think I'm gonna benefit a lot anyway. Just gotta be careful and not die... oh who am I kidding. Magic in a magicless world is too OP. Eventual Lemons

An experiment gone wrong, or possibly right? A nascent Kaleidoscope opens his eyes. A Fate/DxD/Multicross story. Thanks to TheMadLad for the cover image.

Jaune loved his adoptive big sister, he really did. He just wished she could be a little less…well... evil. Still, Cinder saved him from their cruel adoptive mother and swore to look after him, so he can't abandon her. Maybe in between this whole "destroying the world" stuff, he can convince her to be a good person. She saved him so it's his brotherly duty to save her in return.

Life was nice, but I may have made too many enemies, and that resulted in my death. Thankfully I've been given another chance, and in an ironic twist, it's an even more dangerous world than the last. Devils, gods, and everything in between running around is concerning, but at least I didn't start with nothing. Being a Yakuza Princess is bound to be useful. Fem Gamer MC. Evil MC

Doing what's right isn't always easy. Pyrrha found that out the hard way. When Jaune revealed he forged his transcripts, she had no choice but the tell Ozpin. Little did she know of how this one act would affect not only his life, but hers as well.

A meteorite lands in Remnant but this had a special passenger on it. A symbiote and Jaune just has the luck to get a new and otherworldly new partner at Beacon.

Look, we all know what an isekai story is, and I'm sure you can guess from the tags exactly who's involved, but just to be sure: the blonde noodle dies at the end of Volume 3 of RWBY instead of Pyrrha, and gets isekai'd to Camelot. A spin-off sequel of All The Difference In The Worlds to mark the one-year anniversary of it, with exactly the quality you'd expect (read: none).

Jaune had gotten used to many eccentricities since his enrollment to Beacon Academy. Waking up in a strange room where a woman tells him he had won a planet wide lottery was not one of them. (ON HIATUS)

In the aftermath of The Breach, all eyes are on Jaune Arc as he takes center stage. Watch as he tries to survive the attention of nosy stalkers, jealous fans, horny maidens, and a Grimm Queen all while the Vytal Festival comes in full swing. While deep beneath Remnant's thin veneer of peace, the shadow of war began to stir.

A tragedy forces Jaune into big boy shoes, how will canon hold up with a more competent Arc? It probably wont... I really was not happy with a few plotpoints in RWBY, so here is a retelling that hopefully doesn't make you wait years for an update that will never come

Jaune Arc is the four-time Vale Tournament Champion - an accomplished fighter. The fans love him - he's a star, a prodigy. In real life? He's a socially awkward dork who couldn't talk if his life depended on it. Maybe, though, things will be better at Beacon. He'll find a team, make friends, get a girlfriend, and save the world!

What happens if Subaru's adventure was to be known to everyone? What would change? Spoilers for the anime and the novels. Special thanks to Wishful Witch on reddit for the cover art. Enjoy!

Jaune Arc was having a very bad day. Beacon discovered his transcripts were false and withdrew their acceptance, the Bullhead he was on was attacked by Grimm, and now he met a talking crow calling itself a god. Yep, turns out gods are real, and they have a job for him. Well, not like he had anything better to do. If only they weren't such dicks.

Dying due to some random entity's mistake wasn't how I wanted to finish my Monday. Receiving a new life together with the Gamer System might have placated me a bit. That was until I was dropped into the world of RWBY as a Grimm. Yep, I am screwed... Gamer Grimm OC.

Neopolitan ponders a life-changing choice. Surrounded by weapon cases and dancing souls, thoughts like a whirlwind echo through her. Chocolate and strawberry iris' reflect the red and bronze of the weapon before them. "To have what they have, what a thing huh?" Heterochromaic eyes close one last time, and reopen, instead, with the brilliant emerald of Winged Victory.

When Jaune's forged transcripts were rejected, his only choices were to return home or stay in Vale. In a random act, Jaune decides to open a massage parlor! He had the training for that! Jaune starts a new chapter while still trying to become a Huntsman, while also making friends with both civilians, Huntsmen, and .. criminals? Life's never been more interesting! Coverart by Kegi!

After falling into the void Jaune Arc does not find himself in the nonsensical realm of the Ever After. Instead he lands in a world where gender equality is a long forgotten concept and he is the only man with unnatural abilities. Will he find his place in this new world or will the darkness of Mato sweep him away.

Team RWBY have always found themselves dealing with the strangest of missions, but nothing could have prepared them for a quartet of turtle ninja masters. And can the Ninja Turtles find their way out of Remnant, or are our favorite teenaged mutants turtle soup?

1000 years resting, his soul was finally chosen to take up the gamer system. But despite all this power, he's in no rush to conquer worlds. In fact maybe these children he keeps finding might be a better goal for him. (I AM NOT LOOKING FOR MY WORK TO BE MADE INTO COMIC FORMAT; PLEASE STOP OFFERING THEM IN REVIEWS AND ON MY PMS!)

Remnant's love for vibrant colors was a vivid contrast to the dark shades of the Grimm and Hunters and Huntresses embraced this tradition. Team JNPR stood out with their all-black uniforms, a stark difference not unrelated to Jaune's love of explosives.

Jaune Arc had always wanted to become a hero. However the Signal entrance exam had steared him on a different path to achieving his dream. Picking up the blacksmith trade in his youth, Jaune had grown to be a different man. In a Remnant that holds more secrets than many would think, Jaune Arc is set to become an Arsenal. Rated M for language. [HIATUS]

Meet Jaune Arc, fearless leader of Team JNPR, partner and disciple to Pyrrha Nikos, and the only student of his year. Wait, what? What do you mean only student? Winner of the Vytal Festival? Badass dust, sword, and shield user? What if V1 Jaune wakes up with memories of Pineapple! JAUNE? REVISIONS in early chapters

As a Huntsman at Beacon, a shield of the weak and a sword against the Grimm, there is one garment that best exemplifies Jaune Arc: the blue bunny onesie he wore before Initiation. And why? It's simple: because everyone at Beacon wants it.

Jaune Arc was left in a new world completely alone. That was until he met some wonderful people, people that in the coming years he would come to love with his entire being. Was there someone capable of falling in love with a liar? The answer is yes. This is an Spin-off of my story Rent a Jaune.

(Based on Imyoshi's "Pineapple") Somehow... Brothers know-how, Jaune Arc was the only one who passed the first-year Initiation and now he's all alone in Beacon... Oh boy, this wasn't going to be one weird year!

Jaune Arc had been through hell and high water, but he finally made it to Beacon. By fake transcripts. But that isn't an issue! He might be lacking in many things, but a bullshit semblance always helps. (The Binding of Isacc's plot and information are not needed for the reading, but you'll miss some references at least, and also, harem. More characters than in the pairings.)

Nora, while rummaging around in the Beacon Academy kitchen for a late night snack, finds something in the cupboard that changes her whole life.

I played video games so much that my own life became a game! Why did I receive this power? And why do I have a quest whose failure penalty is the destruction of the universe? A slow boil adventure, DO NOT READ THIS STORY if you are expecting an emotionless grinding murder hobo.

Finally out of the Ever After, Team RWBY and Jaune get some well deserved rest. Until Weiss awakens to a panicked Jaune Arc in the middle of the night.

'So, summary. I am in the Naruto world. I have a name that isn't mine and I have a really nerfed version of the Gamer. Is that all? Am I forgetting something?... Right, Inventory.' At that I received yet another disappointment.

One year after the Arc Royale, Jaune Arc and all the other protagonists from your favorite Coeur Al'Aran stories find themselves invited to a luxurious banquet, courtesy of the brother gods. The time for fighting is over, it's time to celebrate! Written for Coeur Al Aran's 10 year anniversary writing stories on this platform.

After his dream of becoming a Huntsman was shattered with his failed attempt to get into Beacon Academy, Jaune Arc took an unexpected turn in his life. Determined to prove his worth and still make a difference, he enlisted in Atlas' military, Jaune is then soon sent on a mission to the Kingdom of Vacuo as part of a company sent to solve the SDC's problems within the region.

A huntress was essentially an elite super soldier, they slayed monstrous creatures for a living and foiled the plans of terrorist organization while saving the world on the side. That being said how do they handle growing affection for one Jaune Arc? Turns out not very well. Another Jaune Arc Harem fic, with a dash of Yandere.

The last bit of magic in the world did not just belong to Ozpin, Salem, or the Maidens. It remained unattached looking for someone with drive. Who just needed the opportunity to become something great. It turns out that person was Jaune Arc. Inspiration taken from Solo Leveling. Pairings Currently Undecided.

Ruby Rose notices something odd about teams RWBY and JNPR. Jaune Arc thinks she's gone too far. Together they investigate her theory. Completely baseless slander.

After a mission gone wrong, Jaune Arc has difficulty remembering what happened to him down in that Schnee Dust mine. Grateful with being alive, he finds that his luck takes a turn for the better when he starts having steamy encounters with many of the women in his life. If only the peace between Mantle and Atlas wasn't crumbling all around them.

Jaune Arc wanted to be a hero, to be someone his ancestors and family would be proud of. But even after becoming Tarnished, failure continued to haunt him throughout his journey in the Lands Between. Now having returned to Remnant as Elden Lord, Jaune swore he would do whatever it takes to never fail again. He swore to fulfill his friend and mentor's dying wish: protect Ruby Rose.

Past, present and future meet. A man that has yet to fall in love meets the girl that will love him. A man who is about to suffer will meet a family that will soon suffer as well. Bad things are going to come for everyone in the theatre so why not give them at the very least some solace before they happen?

Jaune Arc never ate the Clockwork Orange. He loathed the Citrus Family and instead grabbed the Mandela Mango. One bite sent his consciousness—not his body—back to when he first unlocked his Aura with slightly altered perspectives. Second chances were nearly unheard of in Remnant, but Team JNPR's Fearless Leader seized the opportunity and turned trauma into triumph.

In the grand scheme of the Multiverse, many of these worlds are greatly effected by Jaune Arc. So a bored Writer decides to bring some of those closest to the Knight to witness some of these worlds firsthand. What effects will this, once in a lifetime, chance have on these few? Only one way to find out: Take a look into the Phoenix Roost. (Reaction series. Coverart: Khor Evik)

A story about a future to be avoided, a man who just wants to be the best father he can be, and the myriad of scamps that are the reasons for that journey. (Jaune adopts a bunch of kids)

Semblances are one in a million, a lottery of differing abilities and effects that can define a Huntsman's career. Jaune Arc always wished for one that was special, that marked him as unique, but he could have never predicted just how powerful his would be, how difficult being "unique" truly is - and just how far the people of Remnant would go to control it.

Jaune applied to Beacon with his fake transcripts – his rejection was all but guaranteed. What wasn't expected was that a single ticked box put down on a secondary school choice might change his life forever. Beacon may have rejected him, but there is more than one academy on Remnant and more than one way to become a hero. Atlas Academy, and it's quasi-military structure, await.

Welcome my dear viewer to this new show! Want to see how much can a man fall? How much will he do for his friends? Do you want to see him having a romance just for it to end? Then welcome to the show for you! Please don't change the channel.

Jaune Arc was bad with directions. Hell, before being trained, he was piss poor at most things. But, by some odd twist of fate, he somehow made himself into a huntsman. Not on paper though. No, now he wanders from town to town with a smile on his face. Who knew that turning right at the wrong crossroads would let him achieve his dream early? Now on Ao3

He was nothing special; gangly, awkward, and worst of all... weak, but Jaune Arc had a habit of making himself known, and he was a fool if he thought she would’nt notice.

What happens when a wizard desperate for a champion takes a young knight under his wing? Seeing as a now orphaned Jaune Arc needs a home the staff at Beacon Academy are more than willing to help. With the best training available in the world of Remnant see as Jaune Arc becomes a shield for all. (On Hiatus)

Some people drink to forget; some drink to mask trauma; others drink to escape their lives. Why does Jaune Arc drink? Mostly because of his Semblance. What, you were expecting something darker?

Impatient after thousands of years of stalemates between Ozma and Salem, the Brother Gods decide to intervene. A new contest, Ozma's side against Salem's, to decide Remnant's fate. A contest requires combatants however, and what better or fairer than to pit one man against himself – against alternate versions of himself. Jaune Arc against Jaune Arc, for the fate of all worlds.

On his way to King Kai's Planet, Goku suddenly hears a voice in his head giving him advice.

Ever wonder how that in-game merchant keeps appearing in the most dangerous places and is ready to do business with anyone? I certainly don't. Because I'm doing what that in-game merchant is doing, traveling here and there, selling my wares to those who are willing to do business with me. Whether you're a Huntsman or an evil immortal witch, it matters not to me. [OC Inserted]

He didn't know how this happened. All he can remember was mailing his fake transcript to Beacon Academy. Next thing he knew, he's in the Land of Darkness under the employment of Salem, the Queen of Grimm. No choice but to be her courier, representative, and errand boy. Jaune finds himself in an odd position in this crazy world. At least the pay is good...

The System awakes, and so does Jaune Arc. Of course, one is awakening from an eons long slumber and the other went to bed too late the night before and slept in far too long. The System adjusts to a methodology suitable for a teenage boy, and as such accidentally invokes the god-given right of living a video game. Jaune's in for a wild ride.

My name is Jaune Arc and I'm cursed. At least once a week, I am turned into a monster, a beast so horrifying tha- "Guys, Jaune turned into a little puppy again!" "Arf!" Yeah... what she said. (Coverart by KegiSpringfield)

While fighting against Dr. Eggman, Sonic and the gang are transported to Fuyuki at the beginning of the 5th Heaven's Feel. A Chaos factor like no other has been introduced to the Holy Grail War, and Masters and Servants alike find their plans blown away by a sonic boom!

"The right man in the wrong places can make all the difference in the worlds". Unfortunately for Jaune Arc, he finds himself in the wrong place when he pushes Pyrrha into that rocket locker and takes her place at the top of Beacon's tower during the Fall. Even worse, that isn't the only wrong place that awaits him! Multi X-Over. Completed

Jaune Arc. Liar, incompetent, cheat, and coward. Also playing mind-host to a psycho murder-ninja ghost that looked remarkably similar to himself. Well, the last one was a recent development. On the other hand, there's Minato Namikaze. Hokage, father, legendary shinobi, and dead man. Well, at least up until now.

Before they have a chance to celebrate their success in defending Vale from the Breach, RWBY, Pyrrha, Nora, and Ren find themselves in the Archive, a vast multiverse library complex. There they will watch their friend Jaune in a variety of situations. Set between V2 and V3. Inspired by JC of the Corn's "Endless Possibilities." Chapter(s) 40 and 41 are up. Slow updates.

With the final battle against Salem concluded, Jaune now finds himself stranded in a strange world where there is no such thing as dust and actual gods roam the land. Caught in circumstances beyond his control, he struggles to find a path forward and perhaps a way back to Remnant. An Icura and Vahn collaboration project.

Jaune Arc cheats his way into Beacon, but in a karmic event he becomes The head of Beacon's IT department instead! A collection of emails, logs, green texts and other electronic recordings depicting Jaune's struggles with trying to deal with the tech problems of the students and staff of beacon. Inspired by the Green Text "Anon works IT" and the Tumblr Series "The IT Wizard."

Jaune Arc was a genius, no doubt about it. After a portal experiment goes wrong, he finds himself in Remnant, with no fighting skills. How will he make himself useful against the Grimm and any other evil that threaten civilization? By sciencing the shit out of everything, of course. Slight AU.

Ruby Rose knew the life of a Huntress spelled danger, and her desire to leave behind a legacy remained top priority. Lucky for her, she already had the perfect future-husband in mind. Too bad he remained stubborn. Jaune Arc was hard, but not stiff enough to resist her filthy girl charm. Sooner or later he would cave into her demands, or until she milked him dry. Whoever came first.

Jaune has been distant for the past few months during their second year in Beacon Academy, which left his friends concerned. Some unexpected events occur that will surprise everyone. Team RWBY will somehow get a hold of Jaune's scroll and discover some things they didn't know about him. The awesome cover image is made by Kegi Springfield. [Latest Chapter: Each One's Perspective]

Forced to admit that Crocea Mors didn't feel right in his hands—no matter how he held it—Jaune Arc struggled to overcome this obstacle through the insane idea that Aura could become more than just the armor that protected him. Barriers broke as he pushed past the limits of what Aura was capable of, creating and forging his very own weapons from the manifestation of his soul.

One day, a young student of Signal Academy receives a package from home, containing the journal of a long dead relative. But what is Jaune Arc going to do with said journal, and how will it change not only his world, but that of those around him?

Two idiots decide it would be a spiffing great idea to break the resident knight's heart. It ends badly and kickstarts an epic war for love at Beacon.

He didn't know the first thing about running a school, nor fixing a political disaster spanning all of Remnant. Hell, he didn't even know how to deal with the world-ending conspiracy in the background, let alone a former-headmaster-possessed child. Yet here he was, leading Beacon Academy into a new age of glory. Or ruin. Definitely a fair chance of the latter…

So you find yourself in an environment considered hostile even on a world full of monsters. What do you do? Try to survive, of course. And if you manage to do that? Well, then things can change...

Team RWBY had made a mess of the cafeteria and now they must clean it up. However, the kitchen was so much of a mess that it would that a whole day to clean. Luckily their friend Jaune has the right tool for the job.

For as long as he could remember, Jaune had a special talent: he was able to break anything. Due to his breaking various objects and furniture, he was passed down from family to family, until one day, a professor from Beacon Academy came to visit him.

Spin-off of Hands-on Education. Jaune and Nora decide to take their hobby to the next level, and soon find themselves being approached by friends, faculty, and even total strangers who want to get in on the action. With their budding community channel beginning to take off, they could always use additional... actresses to help keep their act fresh.

Jaune Arc wanted to be a hero. To help people, protect them. But destiny had other ideas, unfortunately, and he was born with a body broken to the point he couldn't. Instead, he sought a different way to help people. If he could not wield the weapons of Man to protect Man, then he would make them for others to wield in his stead.

Jaune Shulker Arc is the very first unique hybrid being between a Shulker and a Human. With these new abilities he shall do whatever it takes to protect the ones he loves.

Tragedy at the Vytal Tournament leads to discovery as Jaune Arc discovers his Semblance and its ability to go back in time to undo his mistakes. Unfortunately, it only activates upon death. And... Jaune doesn't exactly have the best of memories. Will this knight be able to save his kingdom, and discover the truth behind the name of Arc?

When Jaune's forged transcripts were rebuffed, his only option was to return home in disgrace or forge a new life in Vale. Opening a diner was an impetuous decision, being good at it a stroke of luck. Becoming the favourite haunt for students, teachers and criminals alike…? That was neither, but it sure did keep things interesting. Wasn't the civilian life supposed to be easier?

Jaune had always dreamed of being a Hero, of being someone. But dreams were just that; for in the world of Remnant the Class you are born with determines your fate. Jaune was born a Blacksmith, and thus that was his destiny. But when a strange opportunity allows him to change that, can a simple Blacksmith become something more within the Beacon Academy for Heroes?

Huntsmen and Huntresses were impressive in all fields Grimm killing and fighting, but incompetent in nearly everything else. Jaune Arc learned this within the first month at Beacon when people kept snapping their pencils from applying too much pressure. Well, one thing led to another, and while not the best fighter, he was all business. Welcome to Jaune Arc's Black Market!

When Jaune Arc was young, he happened to stumbled upon a mysterious and powerful individual in the woods. An individual that could utilized music to perform impressive feats. Years later, he travelled to Beacon Academy to become a Huntsman with his unique abilities and awesome music! Join Jaune as he reads the soul of others and demolished his enemies with the power of music!

Near the conclusion of the events of Heaven's Feel, the attempted destruction of the Great Holy Grail causes an unforeseen outcome that has led Shirou, Rin, Sakura, Illya and the servant Rider to be transported to a different dimension. How will they fare in a world filled with Grimm, Dust and Hunters?

When Jaune Arc was just a small child, his mother gave him a tiny seed to grow and nurture as a way to learn responsibility. His father gave him a useless Dust Shard to study power and focus. Only problem, the little Arc had wrongly misinterpreted their lessons and ended up creating Remnant's one and only Dust-Dust Fruit.

The war has torn Remnant apart. The Hunters have failed and Grimms now lay siege to the city. Everyone we know and love are gone. But there was still a chance to set this right. A chance to change things... for better or for worse. And sadly, the only candidate left was the weakest among them. But perhaps... it was enough. Fan art by Keji Springfield!

Jaune Arc succumbed to an explosion that was a mixture of feline DNA and Dust—Nora's fault—and it ended up turning him into an extinct Faunus. News traveled fast of the newly created Faunus, the Saber-Tooth Cat. The Faunus community and The White Fang were undoubtedly shaken up, none more than Sienna Khan and Blake Belladonna. One wanted to recruit him. The other wanted to help.

When Jaune's friends turned on him upon finding out about his transcripts, he felt more lost than ever. By chance he happened upon a stand in Vale, and his life would change forevermore… "I'm not a Huntsman… I'm a Hero." Hiatus

Yang just wanted to be a better friend to Jaune and help cheer him up, but one thing led to another. That one night together was all it took for them to see a different side of each other. Sides seldom seen... but they're still just friends. Yang is definitely not noticing the dork more and Jaune is certainly not falling for another girl. It's just some clean release. Nothing more.

Jaune Arc is the black sheep of his family. Unable to awaken his Aura and scrambling for some kind of achievement, he becomes desperate enough to perform a ritual found in an ancient book of 'magic' - and unwittingly exposes Remnant to things even the esteemed hunters of Beacon Academy can hardly imagine.

Jaune Arc had no business being in Beacon, so it should've been no surprise when he died on the first mission. For time to reset with every death, however? That was unexpected.

Life isn't always fair. Sometimes it feels like the world is targeting you. In the end some people are dealt a bad hand in life while others are dealt a winning hand. Other times a dimension hopping Troll deals you a hand that will change your life forever.

Everyone but Jaune Arc failed the initiation. Ozpin was speechless. He knew the boy's transcripts were fake, indulged the act, but never foresaw this outcome. Now the numbers were skewed, and a team wasn't possible. Exploiting his forgery would backfire. No, he reluctantly folded the hand Fate bestowed upon him. The Arc must explore Beacon Academy alone.

Jaune would do anything for his friends. Making the ultimate sacrifice was included. Canon-divergences and OOC-ness will be present.

Jaune had never been the most observant of people. That all changed the day he unlocked his Semblance. Now, as he arrives at Beacon, Jaune Arc is going to learn more about those around him than he really cares to. Some things are better left as secrets after all. Inspired by: Not This Time Fate, White Sheep, and Professor Arc.

On their way to Atlas, Jaune Arc contemplates quitting.

Qrow: Kid you're not fast, not strong, and ain't got no semblance. So we're going to make you mean.

Jaune finds a new friend, a kitten. Is Jaune capable of keeping up the responsibilities of owning a pet?

What if Pyrrha's spear didn't hold Jaune long enough for her to get there? What if he'd been found by a certain crimsonette instead? And what if... her unlocking his Aura gave him a totally different Semblance altogether? ...Well, Jaune goes viral. [Semi-canon AU, and cuz I keep getting told to try it (and I kinda like it) ...also a Lancaster fic.]

Jaune had no interest in Ozpin's latest training initiative, especially when it pit boys against girls across Beacon. Cowardice or not, he intended to hide and wait the whole thing out. Leading the male alliance wasn't part of the plan, nor was becoming mankind's final hope. He was a coward, an idiot and a weakling. It was just a shame no one would believe him when he said so!

He wasn't the strongest, smartest or even the fastest, but if there was one thing Jaune Arc was confident in, it was his culinary skills. Jaune hoped that confidence would transfer to fighting Grimm. Armed with his father's support along with Crocea Mors, Jaune sets out to be a Huntsman Remnant could be proud of.

One day, Jaune Arc decides to leave home to become a Huntsman. Only he left a little too early. So on his way to Beacon with six months before he can even enroll, he happens to meet a certain red knight.

Alcohol is a presence in all aspects of Humanity and Faunuskind. It breaks, helps, and heals. The people who serve it find they're the people who can help. After a rejection at Beacon, Jaune finds his place to belong at a bar, hoping to recover from his past mistakes by helping others in need. Cover: Hanisu93

Okay what is with everyone lately. They've been acting rather weird, Ruby actually shared a cookie with me. Just when I think I've figured everyone out they all seem to change and it scares me.

Qrow was only in the Wilds to investigate some ridiculous rumor about friendly Grimm. Instead, he found a boy that could command them. AU.

Breaking a golden rule, he decided to tell them what his semblance was about. Not like they ever believed him anyways, and they were about to die. As he woke up for the three thousandth time, Jaune Arc is drained of will. Nothing worked, and he always failed. He once again tries to manage it all by himself. This time, RWBY went back with him. *ABANDONED*

He didn't know the first thing about teaching, Hell, he didn't even know the first thing about fighting! A shame then, that his forged documents painted the picture of an accomplished and skilled warrior. Now he's trapped teaching students his own age how to be hunters, when he doesn't even know himself!

Pyrrha Nikos busted her weapon in a fight, and fixing the intricate parts requires a weaponsmith with her busy schedule. Hearing about a new place, she decides to go check it out, there she meets a new boy who is the breath of fresh air she was waiting for. Mechanic!Jaune AU Set around season 1
