Black Rose Blooms Silver is an AU story of RWBY that is updated daily. The idea is that, when rescuing a young Yang and Ruby, Qrow was just a minute later than in canon. As a result, Yang is left with scars on her back, while Ruby is somehow transformed into a human/Grimm hybrid… while still keeping her kind and happy nature. As you might imagine, things start to diverge from canon pretty quickly after that. | |

Cannot Keep a Secret | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_125f3ee4 | comment |
Cannot Keep a Secret: Ruby is noted to be horrible at keeping secrets, like using her "Semblance" all over campus as soon as she gets friends she can rely on after keeping it secret for a decade. | |

Relationship Upgrade | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_161f1ebf | comment |
Relationship Upgrade: In Chapter 65, Ruby and Penny officially get together. In Chapter 66, as a result of the above, Nora stakes her claim on Ren and Pyrrha successfully asks out Jaune. Emerald also manages to go poly with Cinder and Neo. In Chapter 73, Yang, Blake, and Weiss start making moves to try out a poly relationship. The next chapter shows that they have lipstick marks in the colors of the other two on each other's necks, confirming that it's going well. Eventually JNPR goes full poly. | |

Simple Solution Won't Work: At one point Qrow suggests that they try and send Salem into the sun to get around her immortality, but Ozpin shoots it down, having already tried that. | |

Little Bit Beastly | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_1ad6e2da | comment |
Little Bit Beastly: Ruby's go-to form has both wolf ears and a tail, allowing her to pass herself off as a Faunus that has the rare trait of two animal features. She can look fully human, but can't hold the shape for more than about half an hour, to her frustration. The only time she's looked fully human so far is after being freed from Salem's control. | |

| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_1b465242 | comment |
Conditioned to Accept Horror: Ruby suspects that the reason that most of Faunus students at Beacon don't fight back against Cardin's bullying is that they're so used to assholes with friends in high places doing the same thing that they don't even bother anymore. | |

Marshmallow Hell | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_1ce83c47 | comment |
Marshmallow Hell: Ruby gets subjected to this by Yang and Cinder at once due to Anger Born of Worry after the fight at the docks. Due to the fact that they're sisters, Ruby does not enjoy it and quickly escapes by melting into goo. It's mentioned that Neo often sticks her head into Cinder's chest, since she's at the perfect height for it. | |

Papa Wolf | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_1dfd19f9 | comment |
Papa Wolf: Qrow is very protective of Cinder, Yang, and Ruby, and is very clear that Ozpin will regret it if he tries to rope them into his conspiracy. When Ironwood suggests killing Ruby after Salem briefly takes control of her, he is clearly furious, and it's later mentioned that Qrow has been very clear that they can't get Ruby involved at things with Mountain Glenn unless she offers first. He's also not very happy with Cinder being offered Amber's powers, though he makes it clear that he'll support her no matter what she chooses. | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_1fb440a6 | comment |
Voluntary Shapeshifting: Ruby can use her Grimm powers to change her shape significantly. Her most common form is a Grimm version of a corgi puppy, both for travelling inconspicuously with Qrow and for cuddling her loved ones when they're sad. | |

While she doesn't do much to force the issue, especially after she and Ruby start dating, once Pietro turns up they start talking about it again. | |

Steel Eardrums: Averted, when Ruby fires the larger calibers Crescent Rose is capable of in this AU during the initiation exam, while Yang recovers quickly due to being used to Ruby's style of weaponry, the others take longer to get their full hearing back... especially Blake, who has four ears to suffer with. | |

Bring My Brown Pants: Cardin is noted to have wet himself after Ruby deliberately misses with one of her most powerful rounds. Later, after seeing Ruby effortlessly defeat an Alpha Ursa and it's fellows, then threaten them if she ever sees them acting like bullies again, the rest of CRDL gets in on it. | |

Sickeningly Sweethearts | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_2b68b7fa | comment |
Sickeningly Sweethearts: Once Ruby and Penny officially get together they delve a bit into this territory. Weiss is the most outspoken on Team RWBY, due to her issues with crushing on Yang and Blake, but even Yang admits that them keeping the rest of the team up at night flirting is annoying, and that's only the tip of the iceberg. They're actually so affectionate that they keep causing Love Bubbles and cause piles of rose petals to appear from Ruby's Semblance. Some of the other couples get into this territory sometimes as well. | |

Worf Had the Flu | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_2c628d38 | comment |
Worf Had the Flu: A large part of why Roman was able to get away from Ruby despite how much more powerful she is here is that she was limited by a desire to avoid collateral damage (for example, her version of Crescent Rose her could easily destroy the Bullhead Roman and his accomplices are fleeing in, but that would cause it to crash down over the city). When she faces him again at the docks, she ends up defeating him before Adam shows up. Similarly, she does fairly well facing Qrow in the combat test, even considering that he taught her everything she knows about using a scythe, but she was limiting herself and ultimately lost. In their first Vytal Tournament battle, it's noted that RWBYP is prohibited from using their highest caliber ammo due to the limitations of the tournament rules, making their foes harder to beat than they initially expected. | |

Shapeshifter Mode Lock | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_2fc2d6e1 | comment |
Shapeshifter Mode Lock: Apparently it took Ruby a couple of years to be able to look mostly human after she gained her powers, and even after she gained that control she's never been able to shift away her ears and tail for more than a half hour or so (and the fact that she's gotten so used to them that she feels weird without them doesn't help). | |

Shapeshifter Baggage | |

Shapeshifter Baggage: Ruby has consumed the essence of thousands of Grimm, and carries hundreds of weapons and an insane amount of Dust inside her body... which is the same size that she is in canon. Penny openly theorizes that the only way she can avoid being ridiculously heavy is a side effect of her Semblance's mass alteration abilities. | |

Once they and Weiss finally start making moves on each other, she's quite happy. Multiple people start shipping Ruby and Penny after seeing how close they are, with Yang giving Penny the final push to confess her feelings to Ruby so they can officially start dating. | |

Multi-Melee Master | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_3669a9e2 | comment |
Multi-Melee Master: While this is far from uncommon on Remnant, Ruby takes the cake. While she typically fights with Crescent Rose and to a lesser extent Augury, she's picked up a very impressive collection of weapons over the years, and has at least a passable level of skill with all of them. Her trump card is having her Rosebuds act in coordination using all of said collection at once. | |

I Am Not Weasel: Ruby is, or was, human, but since she can't look like a human for more than a short period at a time, she passes herself off as a wolf Faunus with the rare feature of having both ears and a tail. Blake actually approaches her before the exam because she suspects that Ruby, with her Grimm adornments, might be White Fang, though she quickly realizes otherwise. | |

Blessed with Suck | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_3c3f28a5 | comment |
Blessed with Suck: Powerful as Ruby is, her abilities do have a few downsides. For instance, her empathic abilities have a range of several miles and can't really be turned off (with later events revealing that large amounts of positive emotions can apparently make her high, and that she's been aware of people having sex near her), and looking like a Faunus with two animal traits is the closest that she can get to human for more than half an hour or so despite her shape-changing abilities, which Ruby is a bit annoyed by. Her massive amounts of Grimm essence also set off alarms if she's not careful. She also can't take people along with her when using Petal Burst without intense nausea and Aura damage from the Grimm essence composing her for a good chunk of the story, and even afterward it still caused dizziness and nausea. And then she gets taken over by Salem briefly... | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: When Yang fights the Barbortusk in Port's class, the fight lasts all of ten seconds. Using just her Semblance and a dagger, Ruby defeats a pair of experienced Beringels in less than twenty seconds. Ruby faces off against Team MRLO by herself and manages to win with relative ease. When going berserk thanks to Salem, Ruby sends Team SSSN flying far away from the battlefield with a singe tail swipe. | |

Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: This is apparently common among Huntsmen and Huntresses, even if they stick to trying to only commit good deeds they tend to run up multiple criminal charges. Or they would at least if their licenses didn't give them special exemptions. | |

Book Dumb | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_53136954 | comment |
Book Dumb: After his Blackmail Backfire, it's notes that Cardin's grades are actually worse than Jaune's at the time, despite Jaune's issues with staying awake and and apparently lacking general education. Ruby, despite her engineering skills, tends to go catatonic in history class, as Glynda notes. Despite her skills with Dust being enough that she's in Advanced Dust Mechanics, Weiss notes with some incredulity that she doesn't know what "titration" means. Blake is far from stupid, but the fact that she grew up outside the kingdoms means that her math skills are described by Glynda as "rough", and it's heavily implied that she's being charitable. | |

Kleptomaniac Hero | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_5e7c0ab7 | comment |
Kleptomaniac Hero: When it comes to weapons, Ruby is most definitely this. Many of the weapons in her massive collection were taken off of bandits or corrupt Huntsmen she defeated when with Qrow, not to mention the Atlesian rifles she recovered and refurbished, or the junk prototypes of Signal students that the shop owner lets her keep. Heck, she even wonders of she'll be able to keep the weapons of the students that fail to get into Beacon. She even steals Blush and Wilt from Adam during their fight, as is revealed in a later chapter. Pyrrha even worries about letting Ruby visit her home out of semi-serious worry of her stealing the Arm Cannon of the Humongous Mecha defending the city, and after the semester ends one of the reasons that Ruby is happy is the fact that she won't be tempted to steal any improperly maintained weapons for a while. | |

Mid-Season Upgrade | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_62cbb836 | comment |
Mid-Season Upgrade: Over the course of the story, Ruby helps several other characters improve their weapons, making them much more powerful and deadly to the point that she becomes rather famous on campus for it. By chapter 34, Ruby has drawn up plans on how to upgrade Blake's Gambol Shroud. She helps Nora upgrade Magnhild, giving it things like a system to charge up her Semblance on the spot, and a backup for the Lightning Dust for that using the force of her swings. Later, she starts helping Ren upgrade Stormflower. Ruby eventually discovers that she can use her Grimm essence to enhance and transform weapons like Crescent Rose, increasing their power significantly. She later adds a laser function. A few chapters latter, she manages to enhance Penny's Floating Array, using her Grimm matter to increase the strength of the Dust-steel mix. She later gives her even greater upgrades. After the Wyvern incident, Penny plans to return to Atlas in order to get an upgrade, in part using plans and materials that Ruby helped create. During the Time Skip, Penny repaired and upgraded Crescent Rose significantly. | |

Pietro first shows up in the equivalent of Volume 2, much earlier than he appeared in canon. | |

| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_7276d0de | comment |
Mugging the Monster: Just like in canon, Roman and his goons go after Ruby when she's at a store he's robbing, only she's even more powerful here. As you can imagine, it goes similarly poorly. Roman escapes largely because she was trying to limit potential collateral damage (for intance, she could have easily shot down the Bullhead he was using to escape, but that would have caused it to crash into Vale). Adam attacks RWBY and Penny when they foil the White Fang heist at the docks, planning to kill Blake. Unfortunately for him, he ends up triggering Ruby into her One-Winged Angel form and gets his arm torn off for his troubles. | |

Adaptational Badass | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: Ruby's Grimm abilities make her leagues more powerful than she is in canon, and she's more skilled at hand-to-hand besides. Not to mention all the other weapons she's training herself to use in addition to a version of Crescent Rose even more overpowered than the canon one. Yang is significantly more skilled in this AU, largely due to her injury and guilt over what happened to Ruby causing her to train harder. When she faces a Barbortusk for Port's class, it takes less than ten seconds to beat, with the rest of the class sans Ruby sitting in Stunned Silence at the sight. Her idea of a "vacation" weapon is basically what she has in canon. After Adam loses his blade in the fight at the docks, he did something that he never showed the ability to do in canon and channels Moonslice's stored energy into his gun. Neo eventually becomes the new Winter Maiden, something she never became in canon. | |

JNPR practically disappears from the story for a while not long after the CRDL bullying arc is resolved. | |

Bullying a Dragon: Even after being shown what she did to the Grimm she fought in Initiation, in Chapter 27 Cardin seems to forget that he spent the first day or two scared of her and goes from muttering mean things under his breath to openly saying that he'll beat her easily. Ruby then proceeds to deliberately miss him with one of her strongest rounds and gives him ten seconds to surrender, which he takes in terror. Even after this, he keeps muttering mean shit about Ruby when he thinks that RWBY can't hear. | |

Puppy-Dog Eyes | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_85e7c12f | comment |
Ruby has a tendency to use her Grimm abilities for things outside of combat. For starters, she uses her Grimm shapeshifting abilities... to turn into a corgi to travel inconspicuously and for cheap (and to make her Puppy-Dog Eyes more effective when she wants things), as well as using it in tandem with her ability to sense negative emotions to sense when her loved ones are feeling sad and need some cuddles, save time in the bathroom by bathing in the sink, or just to have a Sleep Cute moment with Yang. Or just to change her outfit without actually using physical clothes. As for her ability to create and control Grimm, so far she's used it to make her clothes, including her Beacon "uniform", prop up the bunk beds in RWBY's room, and make a box for Blake's upgraded Gambol Shroud. She later tells Blake that she uses the Playing with Fire abilities she got from eating pyrokinetic Grimm to bake. She also uses her One-Winged Angel form to play fetch with Penny, and Geist abilities to take walks at night without waking her teammates. Blake later notes that her Rosebuds have basically taken over most of RWBY's dorm chores. | |

Bad Powers, Good People | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_86ba007a | comment |
Bad Powers, Good People: Ruby is basically living primordial sludge that can shapeshift into horrifying beasts and summon Grimm, but she uses her abilities to help people and only reserves the truly frightening stuff for those she senses no good in, like Adam Taurus. | |

I Thought Everyone Could Do That | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_88424df3 | comment |
I Thought Everyone Could Do That: Ruby occasionally has trouble remembering that not everyone is as skilled or as dedicated to being a Huntress as she is, like when Port is lecturing on how he beat an Alpha Beringal and she has to remind herself that other people actually find that hard. Later, she turns out to be completely oblivious to how her Semblance is more than just an average Super-Speed one. | |

Wham Episode | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: In Chapter 100 Adam shows up at the rally with a new Grimm arm, two individuals with Maiden powers appear, and a mysterious voice ends the chapter calling out to Ruby. In the following chapter we see that the voice was Salem via a Seer, who manages to force Ruby to go on a rampage against her friends. The Mountain Glenn mission leads to the Grimm Wyvern being released early, Cinder taking up the Fall Maiden powers to defeat her former stepsisters, Ruby and Penny defeating said Wyvern, and Ruby creating a castle in the ruins while she goes into stasis to recover. | |

Asshole Victim | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: If it wasn't Adam, who did everything that he did up until then in canon and then tried to shoot Ruby's head off when she interfered with him killing Blake, him being rendered comatose and slowly dying due to the Grimm flesh and limb he got from Salem being hit by Ruby's Silver Eyes would be almost tragic. For him it's well-deserved. He's ultimately dragged off and and apparently killed by a Beringel during the attack on Vale, and Yang and Blake's only concern about celebrating his demise is that it feels almost like an Anti-Climax. | |

Superpower Lottery | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_8fac4a3a | comment |
Superpower Lottery: In addition to her aura and canonical Semblance, in this AU Ruby's Grimm abilities let her shapeshift, regenerate from high levels of damage, hold large quantities of items inside herself, and even summon and control Grimm (or consume them), along with using the abilities of Grimm she's consumed. She can't even get tired unless she uses too much Grimm mass at once and needs to replenish it. Later, she discovers that she can use her abilities to transform weapons like Crescent Rose into Grimm versions, increasing their powers by a noticeable amount. | |

Deadly Prank | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_952f8f26 | comment |
While Beacon tends to be fairly lax with the stuff its students get up to on campus, since they're training them to save the world from the Grimm, they have limits. The best example of this is Cardin getting himself and his team expelled by trying to pull a potentially Deadly Prank on Jaune in revenge for his Blackmail Backfire while on their training mission to Forever Fall, since they need to prove that they can be mature on missions where lives are on the line. | |

Stunned Silence | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_a0797fb3 | comment |
Yang is significantly more skilled in this AU, largely due to her injury and guilt over what happened to Ruby causing her to train harder. When she faces a Barbortusk for Port's class, it takes less than ten seconds to beat, with the rest of the class sans Ruby sitting in Stunned Silence at the sight. Her idea of a "vacation" weapon is basically what she has in canon. | |

Polyamory | |

Polyamory Cinder and Neo are a couple, but Emerald is also attracted to Cinder, and later joins the relationship. Weiss, Blake, and Yang eventually all get together, in part inspired by the above. Jaune and Pyrrha start talking about going poly with Ren and Nora during the second semester, and eventually make it official after learning that the latter two were considering it as well. Apparently Sienna Khan was together with Blake's parents before their arguments over the direction the White Fang should take caused them to split, though they've recently started repairing their relationship. | |

Epic Fail: Cardin tries to get revenge on Jaune for his Blackmail Backfire in Forever Fall by throwing the sap onto him and then releasing some rapier wasps so they'll attack him... only to miss by a mile and hit Nora instead, who simply uses a Lightning Dust crystal to electrocute the wasps to death before they can hurt her while being unhurt thanks to her Semblance. As if Jaune beating Cardin when he rushes after the other boy in a blind rage wasn't enough humiliation, Yang records it and he ends up getting his team expelled for his troubles. | |

Sweet Tooth | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_bac9f95d | comment |
Sweet Tooth: Ruby, as in canon, loves cookies and other sweet snacks. One time, when Nora went to snatch some of hers, Ruby shifted her mouth to give herself lots of massive teeth and either venomous or acidic spit and snapped at Nora's hand, seemingly on reflex given that she was getting headpats on the time (though she later notes that it was in part because she knew that Nora would take a mile if Ruby gave an inch). This makes her sharing her snacks with Penny even more noteworthy to JNPR. Cinder loves cake even more than Ruby loves cookies. When Ruby gives her a cake to celebrate seeing her again for the first time since RWBY was admitted to Beacon, she soon uses her Semblance to form a spoon and starts shoveling cake into her mouth right there, and is reluctant to give even Neo, her girlfriend, any, with Emerald and Mercury getting even less. Neo loves ice cream and is very particular about it, only her own mix being acceptable to her. It's later noted by Cinder that she apparently has ice cream with every meal if possible, and that it's lucky that they exercise enough to work off the calories. She also seemingly carries ice cream on her at all times somehow. | |

What If? | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_bad22526 | comment |
What If?: The idea of the AU is that Qrow was just a minute later to save Yang and Ruby at the cottage, leading to Yang being scarred and Ruby becoming a Grimm hybrid when a Hound tried to assimilate her but she somehow resisted it. This leads to a large number of changes... Thanks to having Ruby help him on Huntsman missions, Qrow ends up in Atlas with her before Cinder is pushed to the breaking point, and when they get a room at Cinder's stepmother's hotel thanks to Ironwood, Ruby discovers Cinder's mistreatment. Ruby then unleashes her powers on the hotel, reducing said stepmother to paste and freeing Cinder, who's taken in Qrow, resulting in her being more heroic. Qrow ends up fighting Marcus Black, Mercury's father... and kills him (apparently before he crippled his son), due to Marcus stealing Qrow's Semblance and being hit with its bad luck effect. Ruby becomes partners with Blake instead of Weiss, with Weiss and Yang becoming partners instead. Yang volunteers to fight the Barbortusk in Port's class instead of Weiss. Ruby goes with Pyrrha to talk to Jaune, so she's aware of Cardin's blackmail attempt. Cardin's attempt at revenge for Jaune foiling his blackmail attempt and getting him in trouble ends up getting him and the rest of Team CRDL expelled. Thanks to Ruby, Blake gets a major upgrade to Gambol Shroud. When on a Grimm-slaying trip for class, RWBY notices the Grimm heading towards Mountain Glenn. Since Ruby already knew before Initiation, and Weiss managed to figure it out due to noticing her bow move, Blake willingly reveals that she's a Faunus and a former member of the White Fang to the others instead of letting it slip in a rant. After the above, Ruby wraps around Blake with her cloak, keeping her from running off after the reveal. Rather than meeting Penny by running into her when looking for Blake, Ruby meets her in an alley... when she points her sword at her, having senses the huge masses of Grimm essence in her body. Thanks to Penny, Ruby hears about the Branwen clan much earlier than in canon. In this AU, RWBY finds out about the White Fang operation because Yang overheard some idiot members talking about it in the grocery store. Torchwick surrenders at the docks and is captured thanks to Ruby's One-Winged Angel form. Unfortunately, he doesn't stay captured long. Thanks to unwittingly triggering Ruby into a One-Winged Angel form, Adam gets his arm torn off. Ruby finds out about Penny being a gynoid the first day that they meet. Penny plans to transfer from Atlas Academy to Beacon after the White Fang incident, hanging out in RWBY's dorm. Ruby is able to use her Rosebud Grimm to keep Blake from sneaking off to investigate the Fang by herself after the Docks incident, with Yang then able to get her to accept help. By chapter 65, Ruby and Penny are officially dating. In Chapter 66, as a result of the above, Ren and Nora start dating, as do Jaune and Pyrrha. While Amber was still attacked and her power partially stolen, it was by someone other than Cinder and company. Ruby's abilities let her force out the Nightmare that infests Weiss without outside aid, preventing the dream in Ice Queendom from really getting going. Pietro comes to Vale before the Vytal Festival to visit with Penny. Yang takes Weiss and Blake to Junior's instead of Sun. Adam is the one to get a Grimm arm here, not Cinder. Instead of fighting an Atlesian Paladin at the rally, the heroes fight Ruby, who Salem has driven berserk. Penny is with Ruby when the villains attempt to upload the virus, which they apparently foil, but they only capture a pawn under the effect of a mind control Semblance. The Mountain Glenn mission is going about the same as canon up until the explosives are triggered and the Grimm Wyvern is released early. Blake takes Yang and Weiss with her when she goes to Menagerie. Tyrian is killed at the Haven battle. Neo becomes the Winter Maiden at Atlas since Penny is gone, and all of JNPR falls into the Ever After. Since Beacon was damaged early but the Wyvern defeated, the Vytal Tournament is held after the Time Skip. | |

No Social Skills | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_bd0d6395 | comment |
No Social Skills: Ruby, as the result of having to hide away due to her transformation, has trouble interacting with people outside of her extended family. Heck, part of the reason that she goes to Signal despite having enough skill to test out of most of the classes (other than hanging out with Yang of course) is so she can get used to regular social interactions again. Even then, she has trouble talking to people if it's not about weapons, though she starts opening up more to Blake, Wiess, and JNPR after arriving to Beacon. | |

She's even explicitly called touch-starved a couple times, and tackle hugs Penny in the middle of class at one point. Once she and Penny have a Relationship Upgrade, they're cuddling every chance they get, much to the annoyance of their teammates. | |

All in the space of maybe five minutes. Cinder apparently managed to defeat her former stepsisters offscreen. | |

Cerebus Syndrome | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_cfdb9e17 | comment |
Cerebus Syndrome: After the start, the story is largely humor and fluff, but then things start to get darker, especially when Adam blows off Ruby's head. | |

Fell Asleep Standing Up: Due to the intense workouts she and Ruby favor, Yang has apparently fallen asleep standing up in the shower after said workouts multiple times, forcing Blake to carry her back to the dorms. | |

In Spite of a Nail | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_d243518d | comment |
In Spite of a Nail: Yang's encounter with Junior reportedly went more or less the same way that it was in canon. Despite Cinder not being present, and Ruby being much more powerful here, the robbery that caused Ruby to meet Ozpin still happens and Roman still escapes. Despite the swapped partners, Team RWBY is still formed with Ruby as the leader. Despite Yang fighting the Boarbatusk instead of Weiss, the latter still got her ass kicked by a Grimm in Port's class (offscreen). Ruby still meets Penny in Vale shortly after Blake's secrets get revealed, even if in a different way. In spite of the different circumstances, a member of Team RWBY is still there when Sun disembarks after stowing away. Despite the different circumstances, RWBY still learns of the White Fang operation not long after Blake's secret is revealed. Mercury still lost his Semblance to his father, and didn't get it back when he died. Even with Adam down an arm and Roman captured, the White Fang still keeps stealing Dust. Despite Torchwich being captured at the docks, he gets broken out soon after, allowing him to be at Mountain Glenn. Amber was still attacked similarly to canon, despite Cinder not being evil here. Weiss still gets attacked by a Nightmare, though it doesn't stick around long. The food fight still happens largely the same way as in canon. At least one team of possible Salem agents still infiltrate the academies for the Vytal Festival. Despite all the changes, RWBY and company still go after the White Fang rally. Penny and Ruby still see the Paladin demonstration. Torchwick still shows up at the rally with a Paladin. Someone still gets a Grimm arm, it's just Adam instead of Cinder. He also gets similarly scarred when Ruby's Silver Eyes activate. Taiyang still sends Zwei to RWBY in the mail. In the end, Cinder decides to let Ozpin transfer the remaining portion of Amber's power to her, despite not having attacked Amber to steal it originally. The chapter notes even lampshade that Cinder gets Fall one way or another. The Grimm Wyvern still gets released. Blake still heads to Menagerie after the Wyvern's attack, even if she takes Yang and Weiss with her. Ironwood is still working on his plan to take Atlas into the sky, even after the plan to steal Atlas's Relic is foiled. Salem's forces still attack Atlas while JNPR and company are there, going after Fria. Jaune and a few others still fall into the Ever After. Despite Beacon being damaged early, the Vytal Festival is still held in Vale, just a year later. | |

Sympathy for the Devil: After seeing RWBY's impressively high Grimm kill count, and hearing Crescent Rose go off, Glynda almost feels sorry for the Grimm. She expresses the sentiment again during the Mountain Glen mission, with RWBY and Penny slaughtering the resident Grimm. | |

Training from Hell | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_d66cd0e6 | comment |
Training from Hell: Part of why Yang and Ruby are so skilled in this AU is that, the latter's Grimm powers aside, after the incident when they were kids they went serious on their training, with the former noting that the latter has always had a thing for super-long workouts, so when at Beacon she schedules training time in six hour blocks. | |

Qrow ends up fighting Marcus Black, Mercury's father... and kills him (apparently before he crippled his son), due to Marcus stealing Qrow's Semblance and being hit with its bad luck effect. | |

Animal Motifs | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_e2ccee25 | comment |
Animal Motifs: Besides her wolf motif (such as her Grimm form taking on a shape based on a Beowulf but more ferocious and with traits from other Grimm species), Ruby is also associated with corgis. She likes to take the form of a Grimm corgi with her Voluntary Shapeshifting (both for inconspicuous transportation and for cuddling with her loved ones), and she claims to be a corgi Faunus to people who don't know the truth of her nature. | |

Anti-Climax: Most of the fights are this. Instead of showing the action, the fic prefers to give summaries after it's all over, meaning that large elements of the canon are skipped entirely. | |

Mundane Utility | |
| Black Rose Blooms Silver (Fanfic) / int_eff83d77 | comment |
Mundane Utility: Ruby has a tendency to use her Grimm abilities for things outside of combat. For starters, she uses her Grimm shapeshifting abilities... to turn into a corgi to travel inconspicuously and for cheap (and to make her Puppy-Dog Eyes more effective when she wants things), as well as using it in tandem with her ability to sense negative emotions to sense when her loved ones are feeling sad and need some cuddles, save time in the bathroom by bathing in the sink, or just to have a Sleep Cute moment with Yang. Or just to change her outfit without actually using physical clothes. As for her ability to create and control Grimm, so far she's used it to make her clothes, including her Beacon "uniform", prop up the bunk beds in RWBY's room, and make a box for Blake's upgraded Gambol Shroud. She later tells Blake that she uses the Playing with Fire abilities she got from eating pyrokinetic Grimm to bake. She also uses her One-Winged Angel form to play fetch with Penny, and Geist abilities to take walks at night without waking her teammates. Blake later notes that her Rosebuds have basically taken over most of RWBY's dorm chores. Cinder will use her Semblance to make a spoon to eat cake with. She also uses it to singe away her leg hair quickly, much to Emerald's jealousy. Neo uses her Semblance to make sure that the building interior looks perfect for the Beacon dance. | |

Locked Out of the Loop: As in canon Ruby is originally in the dark about Salem and related topics, in large part because Qrow is very protective of her, though he's eventually forced to give her (and Cinder and Yang, for starters) the details for her own safety. | |

Beware the Nice Ones: Ruby is still the sweet and loving girl that she is in canon, but now she's got Grimm abilities and instincts to back it up. For instance, when she discovers what Cinder's stepmother is doing to her Ruby uses her summoned Grimm to reduce her to a stain on the ground and tear her hotel apart. | |
