    Summary

    Set pre-game, spoilers for 5.0 MSQ. Lyna and the Crystal Exarch. The world may be in ruins, but that's all the more reason to care.

    "How much of a sinner are you?" she asks anyway, on principle.

    His smile -- the only thing she can see of his face -- is gentle. "I try."

    Summary

    Beacon was supposed to be something new. Something wonderful and curious, a place she could learn to be her own person—no longer under the thumb of her father and away from the untold amount of Atlesian political consequences. She didn’t have to fear for her siblings at Beacon, didn’t have to fear for those whose strings sought her out in a frenzy—didn’t have to fear for potential bonded entwining their souls with hers.

    Or; Weiss knew she wasn't good at things like this.

    Summary

    Raiden Ei unfurls one of her legs from beneath her. The second comes a few moments later; with a whisking of sakura petals chasing an unknown wind, her feet make contact with the spiralling sands. ‘There is something I wish to know, Shogun.’

    ‘Speak it, and the knowledge is yours.’

    ‘... As my kagemusha, how do you feel?’

    Summary

    Yang dies. She wakes up. She fights. She dies. The world stays the same, the situations barely change. Yang wakes up, she fights, she dies. She also falls in love — one repeated day at a time — with the one woman on Remnant who could possibly understand, even if her memories of Yang are erased with each reset. (Yang gets used to the dying, not so much the look in Blake’s eyes that marks her as a stranger.)

    Summary

    Work as a prosecutor isn't well-paying or glamorous, but Ruby Rose is determined to fight against the horrific crimewave infecting the city of Vale with all of her intelligence and energy. Yet as she throws away small fish after small fish, the biggest target in her sights, Weiss Schnee, head of the Vale branch of the Schnee Crime Family, dances around her and eludes her grasp.
    But she's gotten close a few too many times for Weiss to be comfortable with, as the Ice Queen of Vale finds herself more and more enamoured with the thrill of being chased by the one person in the city she's willing to consider might be her equal.
