Summary
After a 4 year secret relationship and a nasty breakup, Glynda has sworn off dating for good. Sixteen years later, She's a successful Huntress, Beacon's Deputy Headmistress, and teetering on the edge of alcoholism. All things considered, Glynda thought she was over Summer Rose.
Then one night she meets Ruby, the daughter of the woman who broke her heart into tiny pieces. Oz offers the girl a spot at Beacon and Glynda tries her best to treat Ruby like any other student while struggling with the reemerging feelings of bitterness and anger Summer left behind. Four years of memories, four years to mold Ruby into an outstanding Huntress, and four years to check herself into therapy. Maybe.
OR
A Glynda- centric retelling of RWBY where no one dies, and everyone is some flavor of queer. The burn is incredibly slow.
