Summary
"The flapping of the wings of a butterfly can be felt on the other side of the world." In a world where summer had Ruby a year earlier. In a world where Raven took Ruby after she was born. In a world where Summer refused to take on the mission against Salem because she was too busy trying to find her daughter. In a world where summer adopted Cinder after she found her. How will this new world react when the heir to the Branwen tribe comes to beacon

Summary
Beacon Academy came and left: and while Weiss, Blake and Yang found themselves moving to bigger and better things, Ruby never quite got the momentum the rest of her friends did. Life has a funny way of speeding up on people, and to a burnout huntress on a crash course with her thirties, Ruby’s on her way to being all grown up.
What, and Who, does she have to show for it?
Willow Schnee is a woman of many regrets and missed opportunities. With her kids off to college and living their lives, and Jacques long since passed away, she finds herself crippled by her freedom for almost half a decade. Who she is, and who she could be, is anyone’s guess, and she has a knack for the flamboyant, a move that nearly costs her life.
But the winds of fortune are fickle: and perhaps the warm, unflinching light of a nearly extinguished, Silver-Eyed Warrior is best to thaw her ever-frozen heart?
Flowers grow best in the spring.

Summary
This is a story of a girl, who had a lot of problems. She falls into another world and has to answer a lot of questions. How did she get here? How will she get back? Who does she want to be? She has the help of a black and red hedgehog, so long as she doesn't annoy him too much anyway. And in the meantime? This world seems to have a lot of problems of its own.
Or, two very different characters with red and black color schemes, trauma, and super speed and the shenanigans that ensue.

Summary
Ruby is a member of the Ring. She seeks to create art that speaks to people.
Weiss is a member of the Index. She seeks to follow the prescripts' instructions.
Yang is a member of the Middle. She seeks to protect her family from anything that could harm them.
Finally Blake is a member of the Thumb. She seeks to uphold propriety and that people are given the respect they deserve.
Members of some of the biggest syndicates, normally they would likely never meet, but one day they wake up in a world with a shattered moon. Left adrift they find themselves at Beacon, the worst thing is they end up in the same team, members of opposing syndicates who famously do not get along in the slightest. Here's hoping Beacon can survive them and hoping the girls can survive each other.

Summary
After defeating Salem and securing the peace she had fought her entire life to achieve, something ancient lingers in the unraveling magic, a spark of divinity that settles inside her and refuses to let go. While the world rebuilds, while her wives Blake and Penny grow older, Ruby remains unchanged. And then, one by one, she loses them. One by one, she loses everyone.
As centuries become millennia and Remnant collapses under the weight of time, Ruby walks the ruins of the planet, carving memories into stone, charting the night sky, the final witness to the death of her world, and then to the death of the universe itself.
A journey inspired by “The Inevitable End of All but Me” by Mr. Illustrated / SCP Illustrated on YouTube.

Summary
It's hard to continue loving someone who no longer wants anything to do with you, even harder to see that person prosper with someone else, to see them grow, you wish them the best even if you don't really mean it. I never thought I would be left raising the daughter of the person I loved most in this world who looks at me with those blue eyes of the girl I won't forget.

Summary
"You are here to slay me. You're a vampire hunter.
Is it...wrong if I wish you were not?"
==
Ruby is a girl with silver eyes, a werewolf, daughter to the pack leader of Rose-Xiao Long Clan which oversees Patch, and a vampire hunter.
Her Uncle Qrow is training her, but he's weirdly protective and cautious with her and she hates it. So sometime after her 17th birthday, she accepts a random quest she is in no way qualified for and (with the help of Maria Calavera) sets off for Mantle in the Kingdom of Atlas on a mission to infiltrate and assassinate a vampire.
Things go wrong fast.

Summary
Love was something Ruby Rose never has in her entire system. But when she feels weird inside her, she gets the jitters! A common thing that anyone would get when they're in love!
And who's she in love with? Jaune Arc, the guy with partial knight armor, yet, who's a total cutie. She needs to cut out her heart, or cut out being weird over being crushed by her own crush.

Summary
They’ve faced long odds before. They’ve been dealt bad hands. They’ve suffered heavy losses. Their best efforts proved futile.
But nothing had hit quite as bad as this. Penny Polendina was gone. Atlas and Mantle were in ruins. Two Relics had been lost, and Jaune Arc had spent more of his life alone in a world of fairytales than he had on Remnant. He was (mentally) almost as old as Qrow and Taiyang.
He feels disconnected from everyone. Emotionally distant.
==
Ruby Rose needs a hug, but the person she wants one from the most is dead. But how does she move on? How can she live every day, when everything reminds her of how Penny is gone?No one in her family has a good track record of coping with loss. Her uncle was an alcoholic and a sporadic presence in her life. Her father withdrew into himself for years and left Yang to raise her. Yang bottled up her emotions and hid behind jokes, smiles, and deflection so perfect you'd think maybe that was her Semblance.
Maybe what she needs won't come from her family. Maybe someone else's dad can help.

Through the woods, through the trees, towards the ocean, and back to her home before the dark finds them.

Summary
Ruby has a special way of making Penny feel. She's supportive, she's reassuring, she's soothing and understanding. Ruby is patient in so many ways, so really it shouldn't come as a surprise that Penny's feelings take a new shape as she learns more about the world and relationships.
...and yet it does, to Ruby at least. Of all the things she expected to learn about her friend, she would NEVER have considered that Penny would be fascinated (and turned on?) by Ruby's sweat and scent after a workout.
