Summary
After Ruby distances herself from the team in the wake of their arrival in Vacuo, Yang wants an excuse to see her at the forge and her arm's been acting up for a while.
In retrospect, this conversational gambit was probably a bad idea.
(Set vaguely in the general neighborhood of Ruby Leaves.)

Summary
After returning to Remnant and finding themselves in Vacuo, Team RWBY finds itself short a leader, as Ruby Rose takes a hopefully temporary step back from her role, and from the team in general, to focus on her mental health in the wake of what happened in Atlas and the Ever After.
Her teammates take this about how one would expect. But as Ruby knows from her time spent obsessing over weapons, sometimes you have to break something to make it better than it was to start with.

Summary
Raven Branwen left her fledgling family and newborn daughter behind believing (or just determined to believe) that she wasn't fit to be a parent. Four years later, her estranged wife Summer Rose attempts to recruit her for a desperate strike against Salem herself without much in the way of a plan. In response, Raven knocks Summer out and drags her through a portal to Tai.
After discovering that her erstwhile spouses have had another girl without her, and that little Ruby's inherited silver eyes make her a vulnerable target for Salem's forces, Raven ends up involving herself in the family's lives despite her own awareness of how likely the resulting romantic tension is to blow up in all their faces and her debilitating fear of somehow ruining Yang or Ruby purely by proximity.
