    Summary

    When you're supposed to be a weapon, how do you find peace?

    In Atlas, a lost silver-eyed girl is found hidden away like a buried treasure, her origins a mystery. She grows up in secrecy, training to be the perfect warrior and believing her destiny is to save the world.

    (The second child of the Rose-Xiao Long family was killed in a tragic Grimm attack, and there was nothing left of the infant to bury.)

    In Vale, a girl made of metal, circuits, and a soul that burns bright wakes up with no memory. As she learns to protect herself and so many others, she watches the stars and wonders what she was built for.

    (Dr. Polendina's lifelong project was destroyed in an unfortunate incident, reduced to a few unidentifiable scraps.)

    Neither Ruby nor Penny know what secrets they hold. But when their lives collide, together they will discover a future of unlimited possibility and love. The world will never be the same.

    Summary

    Salem is gone. The storm has cleared at long last. With its passing, team RWBY has been granted something they long since stopped daring hope for — a chance to just live. To mourn, to heal, and to pick up the pieces of the lives the Fall had shattered. To find their laughter again… and to make sense of the feelings they put on the backburner for far too long.

    Who would’ve thought that the return to normalcy was going to be so hard?

    For Ruby and Weiss, their bond is their strength and solace, but it is also a mess. A beautiful, complicated tangle of blurred lines and the vaguest of boundaries, welded together in the fires of hardship. Strong and true, but messy all the same. ‘What are they?’ is not an easy question for them to answer, and scarier yet to ask. Partners? Best friends? Kindred souls? Or all of those, and something more? A comfortable status quo — but is comfort all that the heart truly desires?

    Summary

    Team RWBY's first months at Beacon certainly weren't boring. Between Blake's history with the White Fang, the turmoil of Weiss's possession by the Nightmare, foiling Torchwick in Mountain Glenn, and fighting at the Breach, the girls had been busy from the jump.

    But then, with everything momentarily resolved, the academy had a short break before the Vytal Festival, and nothing has been the same since. Their grades are plummeting, the team synergy they'd perfected has crumbled, and nobody is opening up about why.

    There are only two months until the Vytal Tournament, and they have to get their act together. But none of them want to be the first to broach what's changed in each of them, and what has been started. After all, evidently the others each went through something far more important than they did. They've all clearly got enough on their own plates.

    They don't need to know.
