The Choices We Make is a RWBY fanfic written by Darkbetrayer. It follows a Fandom-Specific Plot by beginning when Pyrrha decides to inform Ozpin of Jaune's forged transcripts. However, rather than expel him immediately, Ozpin instead gives him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: he can instead apprentice himself to an active Huntsman for a year, getting field experience no student could ever dream of. Jaune accepts the offer, but things get far more complicated when not only does his best friend Ruby insist on going with him, but the Huntsman they're shadowing is none other than Qrow Branwen.The story can be read here.

Genre Savvy: Jaune immediately looks around in terror when he makes the mistake of saying the words "everything's going to be fine", noting that the moment any horror character says those words, something bad happens to them.

Ambiguous Situation: When Qrow meets Sienna while she's going by the name Kali, Qrow clearly recognizes that her name isn't Kali but it isn't made clear if he realizes who she actually is.

comment
Adaptation Expansion: The backstory behind Raven abandoning Ozpin's forces is fully expanded here. Here, she and Summer attempted to kill Salem, only to learn in the worst possible way that she was completely immortal. She then trapped them in her castle, converted Summer into a Hound, and released Raven solely so that Summer would be forced to hunt her down. Raven killed Summer at her own request, fled, and then spent the rest of her life until now focusing on the tribe.

comment
Broke the Rating Scale: The Atlas leadership simulation is powered by all the technology it could ever require, yet Jaune manages to outright crash it the first time he uses it with a move no one ever could've expected: dropping Atlas onto Mantle. The act killed so many Grimm at once that the simulation couldn't count it properly and crashed.

comment
Hidden Depths: When Jaune attends one of Port's lectures after their trip returns to Beacon, he realizes that the long-winded stories he tells actually quietly describe how to kill the Grimm featured in them. For example, when Port explains how he once killed an Arachne, all of the extra details (like how he had just finished cooking dinner and how slicing the legs allowed him to heroically save the village) are just long-winded ways of saying "the Arachne is weak against fire and destroying its legs renders it immobile".

 The Choices We Make (Fanfic) / int_39b8d3d6
comment
Boring, but Practical: Jaune's ability to refill his own Aura is noted to only refill it about 5% faster than if he just let it recharge naturally, but doing so gives him just that much more training time with Qrow and it allows him to refill Ruby's Aura once he has enough, so it's great for training purposes. It also saves his life when he gets caught in a bad current, as he can refill it just fast enough to take the damage from the rocks he hits.

comment
Break the Cutie: Both Jaune and Ruby begin the adventure as bright-eyed and innocent as they were when they first entered Beacon, not fully understanding what they're getting into by signing up with Qrow. Their innocence gets dashed quickly when they uncover a Faunus slave trade outside of the Kingdoms, and it only gets worse when Tyrian Callows almost kills them all.

Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Qrow is a drunk jackass who rarely takes anything seriously and trolls everyone around him, but he's widely regarded to be one of the best Huntsmen in the world. Jaune notes that nothing proves the respect he commands more than when Qrow acts exactly the same as he always does around General Ironwood and no one calls him on it.

Adaptation Relationship Overhaul
 The Choices We Make (Fanfic) / int_72ce3f54
comment
Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Pyrrha exposing Jaune's transcripts completely changes the relationships within RWBY and JNPR. Pyrrha barely interacts with anyone (Jaune and Nora aren't on speaking terms with her, though Ren is trying to fix that), and without Ruby and Jaune's friendship tying the teams together since they're away from campus, while they still hang out together, it's far more incidental. Jaune and Ruby's travels eventually lead them to make relationships with Raven Branwen, Vernal, and Sienna Khan, whereas in canon none of them interacted with each other in any meaningful capacity.

Cell Phones Are Useless: After Jaune gets separated from the group via falling into a river, his Scroll gets soaked, and he can't turn it on to call for help until it gets completely dry or it'll short circuit. The time it takes for the scroll to dry is longer than the time it takes for him to just complete the mission he was there to do in the first place, and by that point he's reunited with Qrow and Ruby anyway.

comment
I Know Mortal Kombat: Qrow points out that Atlas's leadership simulation is essentially a large-scale tower defense video game, making Jaune and Ruby far more comfortable using it. The analogy works well, with Ruby scoring well for her age group and Jaune killing so many Grimm that it crashes. Ironwood later notes that treating it as a video game instead of a test may improve student performance and that he'll try that on one of his classes. Later on, when Qrow introduces the concept of a Trapper Arachne to them, Jaune compares it to a pit trap from the video games he's played. Qrow responds with a "sort of", later on showing why the analogy worked as a starting point but not in execution.

The Cassandra: After an encounter with Tyrian, Ruby tries to tell the remainder of her team about it, saying that she encountered a murderer and almost got killed by him. After a brief moment of shock, the rest of her team assumes it's a joke and hangs up before she can correct them, with Ruby bitterly noting that they're still treating her like a kid - it's not until JNPR corroborates a part of Jaune's story that Ruby's team starts to think she may have been serious.

They discover it when they see a Grimm child walking around during an attack, and they and several of the White Fang pass it back and forth between several people to attempt to kill it without killing the host in the process.

Hypocrisy Nod: Jaune criticizes Qrow for keeping Salem's existence a secret from everyone, especially Ruby. Qrow counters with all the good reasons why her existence is a secret, and then asks if he wants to go ahead and tell Ruby the horrible fate Summer suffered at Salem's hands. After internally discussing how much it would hurt Ruby without actually changing anything, Jaune agrees to keep it secret from her and fully admits he's being a hypocrite.

Loophole Abuse: Jaune breaks the Atlas leadership simulation by taking advantage of the programming and using it to drop Atlas onto Mantle. Ironwood points out that the simulation should've ended when Mantle and Atlas were destroyed, but Winter points out that it truly only ends when all the civilians are killed - Jaune tricked the game by evacuating them to a nearby military base before the drop, annihilating the infrastructure but killing untold numbers of Grimm and saving the civilians in the process.

Both Sides Have a Point: After the fight with Tyrian Callows, Jaune and Qrow voice their disagreements with each other and admit the other has valid points. On Jaune's side, Qrow used them as bait, and while Ruby coming back to the fight put them all in danger, yelling at her about that wasn't very productive when she was already torn up about it. On Qrow's side, he had told them at the start to always follow his orders without question, breaking that order almost got someone killed, and if it were anyone but Ruby, he'd have them sent back to Beacon immediately.

Curb Stomp Cushion: Jaune and Ruby vs. Sienna Khan is pretty one-sided in the latter's favor, but they give a good showing and manage some solid hits along the way.

What the Hell, Hero?: Both Jaune and Qrow give each other a tongue lashing after the fight with Tyrian goes wrong. Qrow lectures the kids for coming back and specifically calls out that Ruby's insistence on returning almost got all of them killed; in return, Jaune lectures him for piling on to her when she's clearly already tearing herself up over it, then lays him out with a punch while pointing out that his plan would've gotten Penny killed if she'd been human.

Achilles' Heel

Achilles' Heel: The Chill is completely incapable of passing through Aura despite being incorporeal. Jaune is able to kill it by unlocking its host's Aura, then using his Semblance on his hands, grabbing it when it tries to escape the host, and ripping it in half with brute strength.

Famed In-Story: Though their fame doesn't spread worldwide, Jaune and Ruby become known figures in the Sanus countryside for their liberation of the SDC slave camp. Their reputation is strong enough that a White Fang caravan recognizes them by their weapons and lets them travel with them.

comment
Determinator: Ruby is originally shocked how Jaune can wake up so early and go outside to train even when he's dead on his feet, but then she notes that he really has no choice; if he doesn't do it, he'll be kicked out of Beacon for good. This determination inspires Ruby herself to get up earlier than usual to train alongside him.

Hate Sink: Ash, the commander of the Atlas base Qrow visits, seems like a nice enough fellow. Then it turns out that he lied about how big the Arachne base was so that Qrow would accept the job, putting their lives in danger just for the sake of a little profit for Atlas.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business
 The Choices We Make (Fanfic) / int_e83f211c
comment
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Ruby ignoring Qrow's orders during the fight against Tyrian makes him so angry that he outright yells at her, something that shocks everyone in the room into silence. Having to relive killing Summer traumatizes Raven so much that her arm begins to shake. Jaune walks into a meeting with Ozpin, Ironwood, Goodwitch, and Qrow and instantly can tell it's serious, but he doesn't feel very nervous. Then he sees Qrow doesn't have his flask on him and realizes that it's very serious.

comment
Exact Words: When Raven explains why she turned against Ozpin, she says that the secrets he kept directly led to Summer's death. After he hears the story, Jaune reflects on that wording and realizes that Raven never said that Salem killed Summer, meaning that Raven did it herself.

Spotting the Thread
 The Choices We Make (Fanfic) / int_ec0ce986
comment
Spotting the Thread: After hearing the story of Summer's death from Raven, Jaune immediately points out something that doesn't line up; with how strong Summer already was combined with her Grimm strength and power, Raven shouldn't have been able to beat her in a straight fight as she originally tries to claim. When he calls this out, she reveals that she didn't, and the only reason she survived was because Summer managed to hold herself back long enough for Raven to kill her.

Running Gag
 The Choices We Make (Fanfic) / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: Qrow gives Jaune a hammock and calls it a vital Huntsman tool in an attempt to troll him, but Jaune and Ruby take it seriously and keep spreading the benefits of having a hammock on your person everywhere they go, even to General Ironwood. It only gets worse when the hammock actually saves Jaune's life, to the point that they keep actively trying to find a new one in every town they're in. Even once they've returned to Beacon, Jaune continues preaching the benefits of a hammock to everyone who will listen, to the point that even Port agrees with him.
