[reckless-weasel]

"Hey ya fuckin' weasel." - @blue-raspberry-rapper [COOLERBOX]

“Fucking Racoon.”

He huffs and rolls his eyes under his helmet. He’s sitting on the ground, using a screwdriver to tighten the bolts on his robotic leg. 

[blue-raspberry-rapper]

The weasel kicked off his boots at the front door before opening it. As much as he couldn’t really help it, he didn’t want to cause Cat or Cooler any inconvenience with blood on the floor.

@reckless-weasel

-> Oh. Well it seems like Cooler was waiting at the front door for the weasel to come home! And the blue demon didn't look all that pleased either. "Sooooo.... When were you gonna call or text to tell me you were gone?"

[smoke-and-blasters]

Hover pulled up to the spot on his gear. He was in his usual attire but this time he had a backpack on. He knew just walking into this could be a trap but the letter…..he hasn’t been able to find them…everything was trashed and it terrified him. As much as he didn’t want to admit.

@reckless-weasel

-> The building looked.... Rundown. Rundown and disgusting. Which made sense for the downtown area of Crossroads. The king didn't give a fuck about this area, because it wasn't being seen by the public eye. -> The two blue demons could be seen in the center of the room, tied up with their backs against each other. They both also looked... Wet? Really wet, like something had been poured on them. Cat was awake, awake and shaking like a leaf. But Coole was out like a light, the eyes of his visor gone too.

[movedwercs]

I've uh. There's a lot of caves in the Black Hills.

None of them particularly well-inhabited, but they've got a good uh, samplin' of plants.

One of them was big enough I could hide the ship in it for the night, ay.

We're back in the air today but I'm still not sure what wifeouddy has me lookin for. I'll give it until breakfast and then I'm gonna park the thing again and take off on foot*.

[rxnowned-vxmpire-hxnter]

"Phew! Back to normal..." ...

"And I still got this damn amazing hoverboard!" Simon rode off on the hoverboard. At least as a child, he had practice with it and was great with hovering now!

[lungpopper]

Nothing screams DUI like steel toe boots on an E-scooter.

[deviumgale]

You in or what?

–Hah! As if I'd let you do have all the fun.

You ready?

[burningcrab]

DP X Marvel #30

Dani Phantom wasn’t exactly trying to join a government-sanctioned group of reformed (read: questionably reformed) assassins, mercenaries, and general menaces to society, but in her defense, she didn’t know what a Thunderbolt was. She thought they were just a bunch of really cool weirdos with snappy outfits who didn’t mind that she phased through walls sometimes or accidentally vaporized a training drone.

It started when Dani, on the run from some GIW idiots, phased through several realities and crash-landed in the middle of a Thunderbolts operation — specifically, right between Bucky Barnes (grumpy, armed, tired) and Yelena Belova (chaotic, armed, also tired but hiding it better).

“Is that a child?” Yelena asked, peering over Bucky’s shoulder like he was a slightly inconvenient lamp.

Bucky, gun still raised, frowned. “That’s a floating child.”

“I can see that, Captain Obvious,” Yelena snapped, flipping her knife casually in her hand. “Why is she floating like—”

Before she could finish that thought, Dani spun midair and zapped the rogue Hydra agents sneaking up behind them with a giant neon green energy blast. The agents went flying into a brick wall like someone had yeeted them across a football field.

“…Okay,” Yelena said brightly. “I like her. She can stay.”

“I—what?” Bucky sputtered, lowering his gun slightly. “She’s a kid, Yelena.”

“And she vaporized five men without blinking,” Yelena pointed out, beaming like a proud aunt. “I say we keep her. She’s Thunderbolt material. Very murder-y. Very spunky.”

“She’s like ten.”

“Exactly. She’s moldable. We can teach her the good stuff early,” Yelena insisted, already imagining Dani learning to throw knives and argue over which snacks were superior.

Meanwhile, Dani floated down to their level, blinking wide green eyes. “Are you guys… superheroes?” she asked hopefully.

Yelena immediately lied through her teeth. “Yes. Very professional. Very respected. No felonies.”

Bucky choked on absolutely nothing.

Thus began Dani’s unofficial, highly illegal induction into the Thunderbolts.

Nobody officially signed paperwork. Dani just started showing up. She helped steal Hydra files. She broke into a SHIELD safehouse for snacks. She haunted a couple of corrupt senators for laughs. The team decided if the government didn’t want her around, they should have given them actual HR training.

The real problem started when Bucky and Yelena decided they were both, separately, her legal guardian.

“You are not responsible enough to raise a kid,” Bucky said one evening, arms crossed while Dani hovered upside down from the ceiling chewing bubblegum she definitely stole from somewhere.

“And you are?” Yelena scoffed, tossing popcorn at Dani, who caught it in her mouth mid-flip. “You still get confused by TikTok.”

“That’s not the same as raising a kid!” Bucky barked. “She needs stability. Structure. Rules.”

“She needs to learn how to properly dismantle a car bomb in under thirty seconds,” Yelena said cheerfully. “You Americans are so boring.”

“I fought in World War II, of course I’m boring!” Bucky exploded.

“You’re ancient,” Yelena sniffed. “You probably think letting her get a tattoo is ‘dangerous.’”

“She’s a kid!” Bucky nearly screamed.

In the background, Dani giggled and skated on a conjured green energy hoverboard through the briefing room, knocking over chairs and sending a very concerned Red Guardian flying out of the way with a yell.

“This is fine,” Yelena said as Bucky watched in silent horror. “She is thriving.”

Thriving was one word for it.

Things escalated when Bucky tried to enforce an 8 PM bedtime.

“I’m literally a half-ghost,” Dani said, deadpan. “I don’t sleep.”

Bucky blinked. “What do you mean you don’t sleep? Everyone sleeps.”

Yelena, sitting smugly on the couch with a tub of ice cream, smirked. “Ha! The child sides with me. We binge-watch shows until 3 AM.”

“You’re killing her brain cells,” Bucky growled.

“Undead,” Dani corrected sweetly, phasing through the ceiling to avoid capture when Bucky tried to confiscate her ghostly hoverboard.

Meanwhile, other Thunderbolts members slowly realized there was a child among them and had no idea how to handle it.

Red Guardian tried to teach her Russian wrestling moves.

Taskmaster, after three failed attempts at babysitting, locked themselves in their room and refused to come out without bribes of coffee.

Ghost (Ava Starr) just accepted Dani as a background gremlin who occasionally made her coffee float across the room when she was too tired to move.

The real bomb dropped when Jazz Fenton stormed into the Thunderbolts’ compound.

Not walked. Stormed. Like an avenging angel armed with binders full of academic papers, parental rights lawsuits, and the righteous fury of an older sister forced to deal with supernatural nonsense since age twelve.

“What. The hell. Is going on,” Jazz asked, her voice eerily calm as she stared down Bucky, Yelena, Red Guardian, and Taskmaster at once.

Nobody moved.

Even Dani froze, halfway through trying to fit a stolen grenade into her backpack.

“You—” Jazz pointed at Bucky. “—brought my minor sister to an assassination mission.”

Bucky immediately tried to stand at attention like she was a general. “In my defense, she’s very good at it—”

“And you—” she pivoted to Yelena, who grinned unrepentantly. “—taught her how to hotwire a motorcycle!”

“Useful life skills,” Yelena said brightly.

“And you—” Jazz growled at Red Guardian, who tried to blend into the wall. “—gave her vodka!”

“It was for medicinal purposes,” Red Guardian said weakly.

Jazz took a deep breath, cracked her knuckles, and pulled out a thick legal document titled “Fenton v. Thunderbolts: Custody Hearing” that somehow already had signed pages, notarizations, and citations of obscure interdimensional child protection laws.

“I am taking her home,” Jazz said, enunciating every syllable like she wanted to bludgeon them with the concept of language.

Dani immediately wailed, “Nooooooo! Jazz! I like it here! They let me have grenades!”

“You are eleven!”

“Twelve and a half!” Dani insisted.

“I was giving her a flamethrower for her half-birthday,” Yelena said proudly.

Jazz pinched the bridge of her nose like she was resisting the urge to start swinging.

“I don’t even know how you people are still alive,” Jazz muttered.

“Luck,” Bucky offered helpfully. “Mostly luck. And sarcasm.”

“And murder,” Yelena added. “Don’t forget murder.”

Jazz turned to Dani, crouching so they were eye-level.

“Sweetie,” she said in the voice adults use when they’re seconds from committing a homicide, “you cannot just…join a government hit squad.”

“But they have matching jackets,” Dani said, voice wobbling. “And Bucky taught me how to punch people really hard without breaking my own hand!”

“She is surprisingly good at it,” Bucky muttered under his breath, rubbing his jaw where Dani had accidentally socked him two days prior during sparring.

Jazz looked up at the group, expression utterly blank.

“You realize that she’s technically a meta-human, a half-ghost, and a minor with no legal documentation in this universe, right?”

There was a pause.

Bucky blinked. “Technically…?”

Yelena shrugged. “Technicalities are boring. She lives here now.”

Jazz threw her hands in the air. “That’s not how this works! That’s not how any of this works!”

Dani, sensing weakness, clutched Jazz’s arm and put on the biggest, saddest puppy eyes she could muster.

“But Jazz…I finally have a family here…” she sniffled, lip trembling.

Bucky and Yelena, without missing a beat, immediately looked at Jazz like how dare you break her little heart you monster.

Jazz stared at them. “You are manipulating me.”

“Yes,” Yelena said brightly. “It’s working, no?”

Jazz closed her eyes, counted to ten in Esperanto, and resigned herself to the fact that apparently her life was now a living sitcom.

“I want a full academic curriculum. Supervision. No war crimes without prior approval. And absolutely, absolutely, no assassinations unless it’s self-defense and I’m there to supervise.”

Dani fist-pumped midair. “YES!”

Bucky and Yelena high-fived behind her back.

“I’m going to regret this,” Jazz muttered.

“You already regret it,” Bucky said, smirking.

And that’s how little Dani Fenton, half-ghost clone, menace of Amity Park, became the official junior Thunderbolt, the semi-official godchild of two retired assassins, and the proud holder of a laminated “Certified Baby Badass” card that Yelena made with glitter pens.

There were explosions. There were lawsuits. There were training montages.

There was Jazz drinking an entire bottle of wine while watching Dani yeet herself at Taskmaster with a battle cry of “YEET OR BE YEETED!”

There were Bucky and Yelena arguing over which martial arts Dani should master first (“Russian Sambo!” “No, Krav Maga!” “SHE’S A CHILD YOU MANIACS!”) while Dani snuck off to teach herself breakdancing instead.

There was Dani winning the team sparring competition by phasing through everyone’s attacks and slapping sticky notes labeled “LOSER” on their foreheads before they even realized what was happening.

There was Jazz realizing too late that she was now somehow not only Dani’s sister, therapist, and guardian…but also the unofficial mom of the entire Thunderbolts squad, a title she did not want but was too tired to fight.

And there was Dani — floating over the compound at sunset, arms spread wide, grinning so hard her face hurt — who realized for the first time in a long time that maybe, just maybe, being a weird half-ghost clone kid wasn’t the worst thing in the world.

Especially if you had a dysfunctional murder family to back you up.

[reckless-weasel]

-> A body was lying face up at the entrance of Playground. Limp and motionless, a gentle beeping sound coming from... The body itself? - @metallic-claws

Hover stopped. It was normal to find a dead body almost anywhere these days. Such a violent world they live in. He tilted his head at the beeping though…a bomb? Maybe…

He stepped closer, leaning in to get a better look.

[blue-raspberry-rapper]

He whined, rolling over and clinging to the first thing next to him. That was Cooler. The weasel snuggled in, tail wrapping around his waist.

He seemed to still be waking up…

@reckless-weasel

-> Cooler, who was wide awake and didn't get much sleep, just made a soft little squeaking noise when Hover hugged onto him, his bushy racoon tail fluffing up a little. "Mornin', tough guy..."

[womanofwords]

Everybody's Favourite (Part 14)

You started spending weekdays over at the Iceberg Lounge, much to the Batfam's chagrin. Each time, your excuse for leaving rubbed them the wrong way.

"Sorry, meeting investors for the Ice Block! One of them's Japanese, so I have to be there to translate!"

"I'm discussing prices for the ice creams with Papa!"

"Uncle Harvey and I are discussing logos and copyright law for the business!"

"That's it. I'm ending this myself," Damian said. "Nobody steals my sibling and gets away with it."

"Damian, do not try to seek Y/N out," Bruce warned, although his heart broke to say such a thing. "It'll just make things worse."

You were making headlines a lot, too, and not only for being Gotham's wounded dove. As it turned out, you were a legend.

Y/N Wayne Throws 5th Birthday Party For Pothole That Is Five Years Old

Y/N Wayne Found Flying Around Gotham On Hoverboard

Y/N Wayne Caught Commanding Birds; Claims Their Papa Taught Them

"Father, Y/N can't actually command birds, can they?" Damian asked.

"I . . . have no idea," Bruce admitted. "I really have no idea."

Tim's sleep schedule got worse with each headline; every time a new one was released, he would stay up all of the next night cyberstalking you. It only made things worse.

Click. There you were, opening the first Ice Block location. Click. You were visiting the zoo with Oswald, feeding the parrots. Click. You were painting your nails black, white, and gold. Cobblepot colours, you called it.

They also noticed your stuff moving out. It was just some trivial trinkets at first, but then it became bigger and more important stuff. Weirdly enough, nobody ever saw anybody move anything. It just . . . vanished.

One day, you moved out for good. You left a letter on your bed (one of the last pieces of big furniture left behind) for Alfred to read.

Dear former family,

For ten years, I have been in this house with you, eating the same foods at the same table, but with a seat far removed from you all. I have tried to invite you into my life, telling you about trivial school matters and asking you your opinions on clothing choices, but to no avail. I watched my father shut me out of his life, only throwing me cold looks like a prison warden throwing scraps of rotten food at a starving prisoner. It hurt so much to watch you shower everyone but me with love and affection, making it clear who your favourites were and weren't.

I had so many questions to ask you, Bruce, questions I have contented myself with being left unanswered. How did you meet my mother? Why didn't you know about me earlier? If my mother hadn't died, would you ever know I existed? Life at Wayne Manor wouldn't have looked any different without me, except Damian wouldn't have had anybody to torment.

Everything changed when I was taken. It was terrifying at first, but I settled into a routine very quickly. Papa noticed my talents and potential very quickly, and my aunts and uncles took a shine to me very quickly. Finally, I knew what parental love felt like, how it felt to be surrounded by people who actually wanted to know you, rather than people who had to put up with you.

But it wouldn't last. Batman had to come in and ruin it on your behalf, suspiciously after the fourteen-day video we'd made. I could only watch in horror as my family were beaten up by him and his Batkids and I was kidnapped again.

When I was returned to Wayne Manor, you acted different. You went from cold to overly affectionate. It unnerved me. Dick called me 'baby bird', Bruce fed me lies about my papa, and Damian brought up the nauseating fact about me being his blood sibling. The last people I wanted to see were too close for comfort, and the people I did want to see were forced away from me. You really pick your moments, don't you?

Being around you long-term is nothing short of bad luck. I go for a walk with Stephanie and I get a drink thrown at my head and my 'sister' using me as a human shield. I go with you to a gala and become acquainted with your horrifying unpopularity. It is embarrassing to be seen with you.

So I'm leaving. I can't be with family members that only try and build a relationship when they fear a loss of status. By the time you read this, I will be legally adopted into the Cobblepot family. (Adult adoption's a thing, you know.) I will be sending you all restraining orders very shortly, except for Alfred. I hold no ill will towards him. However, if he ever tries relaying messages from you to me, I will cut him off without delay. I will also be tipping off Animal Control about Titus, since no normal ten-year-old should be commanding a vicious animal. If the authorities find out about your vigilante lives, then so be it. You are, as of this moment, not my problem.

I do desire that we become better strangers than family.

(Not) yours,

Y/N Cobblepot.

Who’s your valentine? @/cafekitsune banner

And the spinner says…

Malleus + complicated + coparenting (modern!au, ~1000 words)

You never thought you’d stoop to this level- the dignified manager of a strip mall Spellphora reduced to this. Crying your eyes out to a telenovela with bad subtitles and an even worse plot. Totally freaking alone on valentines day. It’s your own fault, really. Maybe it’s all the karmic debt you’ve accumulated for working in a chain, or, maybe you need to manifest Malleus Draconia getting hit by a hoverboard harder! Bring on the subliminals, baby!!

That scandalously pretty (and formal in the same way a middle schooler with a briefcase is) Wand Topic goth held your teenage servicing heart and crushed it between his glossy acrylics.

You’re taking it back,, The hangouts, the free samples, and active use of your fucking email for anything but work! It’s all going in your flippy top Kuromi trash can (curtesy of he who shall not be named), and out of your stupid head!

Your notes app is full of amateur poetry and movie recommendations that you would never watch by yourself, because they’re all dumb and you hate it. You hate the whole five pages! But he made them good in the moment. With his cheating fairy makeup magic and inappropriately expensive earrings- he could make anything sound good. Why are all your situationships so profoundly dramatic and sad? Has no one heard of the casual fling to fifty year marriage pipeline??

At this point you wish he hexed you, then your insurance would fund some old fashioned retail therapy, but on your fourth Valentine’s Day alone it hits you. Maybe your shitty ex wasn’t that shitty. God, maybe he was right! All those burnt vapes gave him the clairvoyance to yell a prophecy at your kiosk before he stormed off with a barely safe amount of clearance lipgloss-

“You’re the problem”. (Subtracting the colourful language, obvi) And the only respite for your five month celibacy streak is the freezer burnt ice cream you’re shoving down your sorry gullet,, It’s not like it matters! If you get your way, he’ll never show his face again. As anyone in your position would, you sigh melodramatically into your teeny-tiny living room.

it feels so good that you dare doing it again, despite your uppity next door neighbours.

And the third one (which was going to be the best!) is cut off by a clunky knock at your storm door- it’s way too rainy to get mugged by the knee knocking cartel, but you open it anyways on the off chance Amazon has a gift for you. You cross your fingers for a hunky delivery man, ready to whisk you away from Netflix and mope!

But it’s not, because it just so happens goths are historically terrible at not moping- You look the soaking wet, insufferably sexy Malleus Draconia top to bottom in feigned judgement. From the tip of his embroidered Nurse Martens to the peak of his ebony horns catching rain like a Soda bottle to condensation, and back down to his hands cradling a travel crate like his life depends on it.

Damn, you’d still let him hit no matter what Cater says about his “Victorian girdle”..

“If I may join your evening to share it’s warmth with Gao-Gao, he would be quite grateful.”

And because you’re an aching hearted freak for wittle wizards (totally not to resolve your aching loins) (or the satisfaction of putting that self Defense baseball bat in action), you welcome the guys in with hospitality that would make Snow White weep

“Uh.. Duh! Sure, whatever. I have fresh towels. You probably still know where they are, haha..”

He gives you a grateful nod when you step aside, and the way he unfurls to full height after hunching over his precious cargo is always monstrously hot. You send yourself scrambling for the space heater (still very much vibrating from the inside, with a little ice cream crusted on your lip), no matter how embarrassed you are, Gao-Gao does not deserve to die from the cold! Malleus told you once the gecko intends on going to Valhalla, and you insisted he’s owed it for being such a good boy! (you’re also inclined to agree with any man that has a ninety degree jawline)

Gao-Gao nuzzles against your pinkie affectionately when you put some powdered feed into his crate. He ate three days ago- and you know that because you’re his pet sitter. Holding onto the little guy was easy when Malleus was away- but on pickup when his little brother showed up he thanked you. Said that Malleus didn’t have any other friends, and you couldn’t just leave him to the “adult loneliness” wolves.. So you hung out with him for awhile, and he only got cuter. That’s where it exploded in your face.

It was never his fault. You just got a bad case of the feels- on a little work party when you got hammered, Malleus took the brunt of it. Cater cheered you on in your sexless, drunken rage so well that you just blocked the guy,, And you have no idea why he’s here now.

“So,,, what’s wrong? Why’d you show up?”

“I understand I was unable to text your phone, but we had scheduled a “hanging out”, and now we can resume watching cinema! Gao-Gao is very excited with the prospect.”

You let the silence linger- and not to be mean, either. You’re just marinating in your drunk stupidity. Poor Malleus has no clue what’s going on! His own phone goes out all the time, and it’s not like you canceled, or even officially quit.. This is the worst. Not even your last breakup (pretty bad), or telling Cater that he was demoted (he literally asked to step down. Still sucked) measures up. THIS is rock bottom.

But, you’re used to being on the bottom. From scraping your way out of college only to land some mall-cop ass job better suited to someone in their teens, and all those infamously bad guys you’ve groveled to. Only Malleus (sweet, old man in a young body Malleus) bothered to spend the time reteaching you that you deserve to be spoiled- you deserve friends, and fun, and so many more pet sitting gigs with pintrestable animals.

You’re worth it. Even if it’s complicated, even if you can’t have him the way you want right now, you’ve got the rest of your life to pull it off!

(And to unblock him. That’s probably a good idea.) So for tonight you’ll enjoy the temporary simplicity, and have an unforgettable time with your best friends.

“Yeah! Let’s totally watch some “cinema”, Mally. Happy Valentine’s Day.”

“Ah! A Happy Valentines to you as well!”

God this is scary!!!!!!!! I’ve never done an event before, so please leave some comments abt your feelings with it! Much love, thanks for reading <3

(My amazing beta reader @/Echosofmortality helped SO much with getting this published!)

[plapog]

Hi, now that I've caught your attention with arts, let me tell you about my AU called Star Tales

It follows the same premise, collect the 7 SFOTH swords and save Builderman! but now- it's in space!!

Explore the solar system! Find friends and foes floating in the abyss of the universe! Have epic battles with new weapons like hyperlasers and travel in spaceships and hoverboards! Everyone has their own little space helmets for their styles and designs too! Which the player could possibly interchange if you'd want to. Or maybe leave them without one, breaking all logic and reason!

Basically everything is the same but now your in space and the cities/towns are now planets, asteroids and other objects in the solar system. For example: Blackrock (and Roadtown) was a warm planet, nearest to Bizzville (the central planet), that with the influence of the Ice Dagger turned into the coldest ice planet in the system :3

Some folks would explore with you! At least for a short while, like Jim! Player would find him on the outskirts of the atmosphere of Blackrock's planet. Without his helmet! They'd help him by letting the accountant enter their mini spaceship gifted by Shedletsky and guiding him back to Roadtown!

Hmm what else? Oh!

HP will now more act like the amount of oxygen you have. It will deplete if your helmet gets too damaged and you'd pass out!

While SP are now star particles, little not visible to the naked eye things that make you feel more energised if you gather enough of them! (You could replenish your SP by finding starry items to consume or even SP cards out in the wild space!)

Every SFOTH sword will have its own designated area in the system. Some are on rocky planets like the Ice Dagger, Venomshank and Firebrand. Some are within gas planets like Windforce. Others may be in clusters of asteroids, moons or even a black hole!

Andddd that's all ! This was super fun to make and I sure hope no one made this already cuz that would be awkward... anyway, see yaaaa next few months when I remember to post!!

[ruins-of-tragedy]

Began season three with episode one to four of RWBY... This is already scaring me. And nothing really bad has happened yet.

Season 03, Episode 01: Round One

- Good Gods. The animation and art has improved SO MUCH!!! THE LANDSCAPE LOOKS AMAZING!!!

- Ruby is at her mum's memorial plaque. Their father is here too?!

- "Being on a team with Yang helps. I keep her in line." 😂

- This is a good and wholesome way of summarising the events from before. I will give them that.

- Ozpin sounds like Uncle Qrow. Huh.

- Ruby's dad and ZWEI!!! Father be looking like a surfer dude.

- Tournament is about to begin... Team RWBY is already fighting!

- Professor Peter and Professor, no, Doctor Oobleck are the commentators! Be still, my shipper heart. 😆

- Vytal Festival, Team RWBY's on a close call with the team they be fighting against.

- The arena looks so gooooooood! Fire and ice.

- Amity Colosseum. I am aware that couldn't have been a reference to The Owl House. But this information is not going to stop me!!! 😂

- The arena is airing live! Pun intended. 😆

- Character design for the people watching from anywhere not in the flying UFO like thing... SO NOICE!

- Team RWBY of Beacon vs Team ABRN of Haven...

- Haven's team lady has a hover board!!! And is using it to fight?! 👏🏻

- Blake and Hoverboard lady. And of course the hoverboard can turn into guns. ✨

- Am glad they show someone falling on their arse while doing something cool. It happens more often in real life. Hopefully hoverboard lady can live it down.

- Yang vs Close Combat Person. The tremors from their battle can be felt throughout!

- The team has one another's back! So CUTTTTTEEEE!!!

- Ruby and Weiss are now BFFs!!! 💖. No matter how much Weiss may deny it.

- New song alert! It's GOOOOOOOOD!

- Weiss' glyphs can be used as trampolines?!?!! AGHHHHHHHHH!!! 🤯

- The hoverboard can absorb elements. Team ABRN is also a good team. Of course.

- One member of theirs down! Blake has big brain. But we already knew that.

- Team RWBY worked together to get the rest and won!!! 🥳. They did it!!!!

- And now hunnngyyy. Scratch that. Blake's stomach has turned into a lion. 😆

- Yang knows a place. Weiss' father was hung up on. Emerald stole Ruby's wallet.

- "Gahh, girl pockets are the worst!" Much agreement.

- Emerald is "Em." They are doing a great job of infiltration apparently.

- Emerald has other teammates?! Ahhh. It's just Cinder and Neo. They too have advanced.

- Mercury smelling the shoe at the appropriate moment. Things just work out sometimes. 😆

- Doubles round, Mercury and Emerald. Weiss and Yang from Team RWBY. Ooooooh!

- Emerald is having trouble being someone she is not. Team RWBY is happy all the time. The heiress and the bimbo... The fuck. You fucker. Fight me!!!

- Food time. From Dust to Dawn. And now a noodle shop owner. It's that guy!!!

- No, listen. Yang has a regular. And Blake nods at the guy and he brings her a bowl of fish that results in stars for her eyes, plus some very loud heartbeats over it... This means they have been here before. Considering how they are part of the same team, it's not too much of a leap to assume they would come... together. AGHHHHHHHHH!!!! 💖🫶🏻❤️‍🔥. Don't mind me. About to dive into AO3 for this now...

- It's Weiss' treat! Declined... Blake is planning to run away with her food. 😂. Such mood!

- Pyrrha, Blake's savoir!!! Team RWBY is fed and happy, while Weiss may be entering a food coma. Team JNPR has many varying reactions. Jaune might burst from the overload. Pyrrha is polite and full. Nora is happy and healthy, while Ren is asking if they should have eaten before a fight. No more Monty Oum's voice. 🥺

- Nora advises Jaune to aim his barf at the enemy. Ren thinks it's disgusting but if it does happen... I get why they are friends now. 😆✨

- Team JNPR is questioning their chances. Nora is providing valid defence about their shot at winning. Being Jaune is it's own quality. 😂. And now Nora is playing an even better devil's advocate... Ren and her are orphans? ...Whoa. Nora is hyperventilating so bad, she has literally lost all colour. Oooooof. Been there.

- Pyrrha has a good point; now they can fight with real guidelines and not murderers. 😂

- Ruby wants more when they graduate. Weiss is depressed about not being able to pay. Team JNPR receives an official invitation for their battle, because they late. 😆

- Nora is emotionally done. Jaune is physically done. Good Gods. What have they done to Team JNPR?!!?!

- Team RWBY has entered the arena. So have Emerald and Mercury. Yang saw them.

- Pan to the bad guy team. And they already know who will win?! Of course.

- Oh my Gods. Cinder's popcorn kernel popping in her fingers... Hot. Pun intended. 😆

- Team JNPR of Beacon vs Team BRNZ of Shade... There's a school called Shade?!? What do they teach them there? How to throw their school? 😂

- Ooooooh! The arena randomises it's elemental attributes and division after each match. For some reason this reminds me of Pokemon.

- Forest and mountains for this battle.

- Holy hell. I cannot stop focusing on the great work they have done. The end credits are beginning and holy shirtballs. It looks so GOOOOOOOOD!

- OH MY GODS. This song goes hard... "Maybe it's the pool of blood the innocents will lay in, when in the end you have failed to save them..." 😳

- Is Ren voiced by a relative of Monty Oum from now? Neath Oum is written among the names of voice actors for Team JNPR. That's amazing. 🫶🏻✨

- Beacon's going to get attacked?!?! There's monsters taking the school by storm...

- "Mirrors will shatter. Crushed by the weight of the world." As Ozpin and Glynda stare at said mirrors. Ironwood and his army is the world. OH MY GODS.

- Fucking Adam.

- New characters! Weiss is looking up to a lady. Is this Winter? She is her older sister, if I remember right.

- Yang and Ruby are with a man. This must be Qrow.

- Huh. Winter and Qrow are not on good terms. OOOOOOoooooooof.

- Qrow has red eyes?! And is that a picture of his team floating by? It has him, Ruby and Yang's father, Yang's mother and another lady with a white cape. Almost hidden. Huh. That must be Ruby's mum? She wore a similar thing back in season one's openings.

- Team RWBY and JNPR are holding hands while falling together. And then the latter's members stumble away in the air, leaving only RWBY. Oh no.

Season 03, Episode 02: New Challengers

- "Their dying eyes... are wide and white like snow."

- This season is going to kill me. ✨

- Team JNPR's match has begun. One of their opponents' team members ran in the opposite direction of them. Hmmm.

- Ooooooh! Sniper person. Jaune has good instincts. Retreat!

- Ren down. Nora is one of Port's favourite students. She can use charge to power her semblance. Truly Thor.

- LoLLL! The guy electrocuting her has been informed by Doctor Oobleck that Nora will now channel it against him to send him flying.

- Jaune truly is a good leader.

- This opponent team member is sending discs flying at Pyrrha and Jaune. That's a good tactic. Reminds me of a God I am aware of.

- Weiss is noting how far Jaune has come. Ugh. Being platonic friends suits them well!

- I agree with Yang though. He has got nothing on Pyrrha. Who is now taking on two guys at once. ❤️‍🔥

- Ren doing the Naruto ninja run is a prophecy fulfilled. ✨😆

- Oh my Gods. Team JNPR working together so Nora remains unarmed and can use the thunder on top of a mountain... 🫶🏻🥹🤌🏻. Such coordination and support.

- Jaune wants to use team attacks. His team don't know what Flower Power is.

- Ren being the flower and Nora being the power. Okie, that's cooool, not going to lie.

- "So, what are we?" / "Sorry! I just want to make sure it's clearly defined." -Pyrrha Nikos. HOLY SHIRTBALLS. 👏🏻😂❤️‍🔥���

- Jaune and Pyrrha are Arkos. Awwwwwwwww! Now am just imagining Jaune scribbling their names together to come up with it. CUTTTE! 💖

- Pyrrha may not like the shipname, but I am sure she likes the person who created it.

- The opponent team has gotten up and seems flabbergasted over how JNPR is bantering now. Good Gods... These idiots. I love them so much. 🫶🏻

- "Trying to have a team meeting. Thank you very little!" 😂

- Jaune wants to see it through. He has gotten them crazy eyes. Awwwwww!!! Doesn't want their conversation interrupted. 💖

- One hit of Nora's hammer is all they need. Team JNPR has won! "By knockout. Literally." 😆

- Now we see a Crow Bar. Where lies Qrow. Drinking and perhaps in his natural habitat?

- He don't care for tournaments?

- Team NDGO vs SSSN. The latter is Sun's team. And yup. They are the boyband version of RWBY, it seems. One girl literally has a picture of just Sun's abs and has drawn a heart over them.

- Weiss is rooting for Neptune from the stands. Neptune tries to turn on the charm for the team in front, Weiss has changed sides. YASSSSSSSS!!! 😂

- Oh my Gods. Neptune really thinks he is ALL THAT. I want his unwarranted confidence.

- Desert and the ocean arena. Neptune's afraid of water. Ooooooof.

- He ran off to the barren lands. His teammates are confused. LoLLL.

- Listen. I am rooting for NDGO. I can't not. They look like Disney Princesses. And dress so COOOL. Go ladies!!!

- One SSSN member down. YAYYYYYY!

- Ugh. Three on three now.

- This girl with the hair I want is dressed like a pirate and has a crossbow that can turn into a sword. ✨🤯

- Scarlet got hit in the nuts by some projectile of coconuts. I cannot make this up. 😂.

- Sun, in reaction, said, "Ah, nuts." 👏🏻

- Neptune is extremely afraid. Trying to help from afar his only teammate left. But now needs to get to Sun.

- Salt water is a good conductor of electricity. Bromance be real. Team SSSN wins.

- I am a little sad. But at least this was entertaining.

- Doctor Oobleck called that victory shocking. 😂

- Peter dubs it well earned. Of course. I feel like punching a man-child right now.

- "What you said is stupid." Port should declare that to himself. Not someone like Oobleck. Forker.

- Qrow called this a mess. Inclined to agree.

- He be also here for a fight. Which involves a flying machine.

- The bartender's "Aww. Gee, darn it," got me. Not going to lie. Such serious music in the background and he says that. 😆

- "...the dorks made it to the next round." -Yang

- They are still dancing in the arena. Really a boy band.

- Sun shot some finger guns at Blake. She blushed.

- Yang wants to go congratulate them. Such a good wingwoman. Sun should return the favour. 😉

- Big ship Qrow needs to fight has Weiss' sister? Weiss looks so happy about the particular machine being there though! Love that!

- Team JNPR'S opponent team members' character art. Looks so GOOOOOOOOODDDDDDD!!!

- The arena as well. NOICE sketches! Music makes me want to move along and rock!

Season 03, Episode 03: It's Brawl in the Family

- "And now they know the cost of trusting you's obliteration."

- Weiss and Ruby are running. For a change, Weiss is the one with more energy. CUTTTTTEEEE!

- "Winter is coming." -Jon Snow, and probably Weiss at one point in her life. 😂

- Did she curtsy? Oh my Gods. Ruby is in her natural state, Weiss just punched her dolt.

- And I thought Weiss was tightly wound... Team RWBY's victory could have been better according to Winter, who be a regal queen it looks like, and Weiss wants to impress her so bad. 🥺

- "Silence, you boob." -Winter, after smacking Weiss on the head.

- Awwwwwwwww! Winter does care. Me like her. Weiss considers Ruby her friend. Ruby is grinning about Weiss being called boob.

- Winter Schnee doesn't seem impressed.

- "I wish to thank you for taking an interest in my sister." -Winter. Why does this sound like Ruby asked if she could court Weiss?!?!?

- I have a feeling Team RWBY's living "quarters" might not be up to Winter's "personal standards."

- "...the bunk beds only look unstable." -Weiss. 😂. I actually needed the clarification too, not going to lie. So thanks for that!

- Oh my Gods. Blake and Yang's bunk beds are held up by books. What if Blake wants to read one of them that's being used?!?!?!!! Holy hell. I hope they have eBook facilities in their scrolls.

- Ruby is trying her best to be fancy. Awwwwwww!

- Is Qrow following Winter and Weiss? The camera movements look drunk... Yup.

- Commendable though. He was able to take out the robos even while inebriated.

- Weiss has become so used to people calling her the Ice Queen, she assumes Qrow is referring to her... 😆

- From Qrow to crow. The camera movements in here are cracking me up. 😂

- Winter and this guy definitely have old baggage to take care of... Good Gods. They are about to fight in the streets. I can already see the PR team rampaging around to keep this one in.

- WHOA. Winter be fast. Qrow is good. Did the entire Schnee family practice gymnastics as kids?

- They are equally matched. Ruby is here. Weiss is telling her about the crazy guy, and the former screams it's her uncle... The fruity version of Romeo and Juliet anyone? ✨

- "KICK HER BUTT, UNCLE QROW!" / "Teach him respect, Winter!" Just fall in love already WhiteRose.

- Mercury has now entered the chat. And left as soon as he got there.

- Winter landed a hit! Qrow smiled like crazy over it. (That rhymes!) They are giving the world a great show. I am enjoying this more than you can know. 😁

- Winter's sword can turn into two different ones?!?!?? ✨🤯🤌🏻

- Aura doves? NOICE!

- Holy hell. Qrow really be taunting Winter by not even bothering to use his weapon for her upcoming special move...

- Ohhhhhh. I guess he saw Ironwood coming. Winter has excellent control though. She stopped mere inches away from Qrow's throat. This man also seems to have nerves of steel. 👏🏻

- Ironwood has Penny behind him?!

- Qrow really got Ironwood beginning to fumble and make excuses. Huh.

- Enter Ozpin and Glynda.

- Awwwwwwwww! Penny waved at Ruby and Weiss. CUTTTTTEEEE!!!

- Ruby getting to be a kid with Qrow. AGHHHHHH!!!! Adorable.

- I wonder how many times Glynda has had to repair the entire city now... She is the antidote to Theseus' ship. 😂

- Ozpin wants to talk to Qrow. Ruby makes better sense to Weiss now. Am glad they are not letting it all come between them!

- Grown up talking. At least Qrow is fun. Even Ozpin can't with him. I love this guy.

- Qrow don't want Winter around. She has now left. Ironwood is her boss?!?! Fucking hell.

- I like Winter.

- Who is Autumn?

- Oh my Gods. The headmasters of the main four lands, and this dumb General. They are fighting something bigger. Hmmm. Makes sense.

- Ironwood is still young. And a little too dense somehow. His heart may be in the right place, but... Showmanship ain't going to win wars, according to Qrow. I am bound to agree. Time and place.

- Oh no. The queen chess symbol on Ironwood's scroll. Things are about to get much worse.

- They need to find a guardian. It's Ruby, isn't it.

- Cinder has been informed of Qrow.

- "...smelled like my dad after a long day." -Mercury. Good Gods.

- Cinder shouldn't look so good. Penny is in the doubles round!

- Oh no. Cinder is now controlling who will fight who. Yup. This will be so bad.

- Emerald and Mercury vs two members of Team CFVY. The handbag lady from it is called Coco... With a name like that, being a part of her team was destiny. 😆

- Coco Adel and Yatsuhashi Daichi. Hmmm. Need to figure out their allusions. I only know one Diachi. He was part of Haikyuu!!!

- Cinder smirked. I died.

- GOOOOOOOD GOLLLY. Winter's sketch looks so freaking fantastic. So does the ship. The music is making me want to chase down my fate. Oooooh! Qrow sketches are here as well. And Ironwood sketch. Now Cinder... This seems like a personal attack to me. Oh my Gods.

Season 03, Episode 04: Lessons Learned

- "The pillars collapse in shame..."

- Emerald and Mercury of Haven vs Coco and Yatsuhashi of Beacon.

- OOOOOOooooooooh! Four arenas now.

- Plateau, city, river body with rocks and forest. Much banter.

- Coco is also a trendsetter. I can see it.

- The voice acting for Scarlet sounds like someone is trying to be extremely pretentious. Me likey! What accent is that?

- Mercury can shoot light blasts with his feet?! Cooool.

- This fight is getting so GOOOOOOOOODDDDDDD!!! But going bad for Coco and Daichi.

- Coco's glasses broke. She don't like Emerald anymore. 😆

- Emerald lady is not only Aladdin, but also Abu. 👏🏻

- Her semblance allows her to shapeshift?! Oh no.

- Truly an upset. Team CFVY's members lost.

- Winter is already leaving? She has a way of making Weiss feeling bad about herself, but then good by actually caring and meaning it. Doesn't mince words. I like her. She good. And extremely beautiful.

- So Weiss came to Beacon against their father's will. Hmmm.

- The Schnee family is hereditary? And the rest don't share similar talents? Ooooooh!

- Time dilation and summoning. I still can't make sense of the former. Winter is a good sister though.

- Good GODS. Did this woman just make a light Grimm??!?!!?!! I am in love, mayhaps.

- Not only is Winter good at fighting, she looks amazing in general, means what she says, genuinely cares not only about her sibling's development but also her, gives great advise without being over bearing and is trying her best. 💖

- From Weiss and Winter to Ruby and Qrow. The latter pair is playing video games. The juxtaposition of it all... 👏🏻😆

- Ruby lost. Yang's turn now!

- Oh my GODS. The art they are using for Qrow's story about his last mission... 🤯🤌🏻

- Qrow defeated Yang while also telling a funny anecdote. LoLLL! Nice. Yang isn't impressed though.

- "But they don't give out medals for almost." -Qrow.

- "They do and they are called silver!" -Ruby. Her having silver eyes... Am probably reading too much into it. Point though! Especially since it's honouring an attempt. Those are important too.

- Qrow raises some good issues as well. No crime at all... Alarm bells a ringing.

- Team STRQ. Yang was looking at her mother until her uncle covered her head with his thumb. Intentional?

- Wait. Did Yang know about her mum being a part of her dad and uncle's team?

- It's pretty sweet though, that he has the picture on him and still carries it around.

- Warning about the real world vs school. Much ominous caution, with encouragement and hope. Keep it real, essentially.

- Schnee training session! ...Winter really knows what buttons to push for Weiss.

- I love Winter. She is good.

- "It was really good to see you Winter." -Weiss Schnee. I agree. I agree. I agree.

- This song... I like the almost soothing quality of it. Awwwwwwwww! Winter looked back for a second at Weiss as they parted.

- OOOOOOooooooooh! Weiss is getting there. A small sword projection! CUTTTTTE!

- IT'S MIRROR MIRROR'S ACOUSTIC VERSION!!! 🫶🏻

- So basically this was the learning from our elders, who don't get along but are actually good at their jobs and in general too, episode. Team RWBY has the best of both worlds, in a way. YAYYYYYY!

- End credits song is making me want to headbang along! Ooooooh! The arena sketch. Nice.

- Mercury's character design! He could have had different hair? Emerald's turn! Somehow they look better in the initial sketches. Or maybe I just have a weakness for this particular style. Light Grimm.

(You spoil me, I spoil your day with unnecessary emotional unloading. Au Revoir!)
