How Pyrrha Unwinds

Pyrrha: …well…it’s been lovely, and thank you for having me on your show…! 😅

Pyrrha: *ends video call and slumps into her favorite comfy chair* 😮‍💨

Ren: Wow, that interview was really…something…

Nora: That host was a smug asshole! I wanted to jump through the screen and smack him! I don’t know how you stay so polite, Pyrrha!

Pyrrha: No…no…it’s fine…! He’s just doing his job!

Ren: *puts a hand on Pyrrha’s* Pyrrha, we’ve talked about this. You don’t have to pretend things are all right when they aren’t.

Pyrrha: 😣

Pyrrha: You’re right…! I hate doing these interviews with all their rude personal questions and I hate the constant expectation that I act perfectly every day because there’s always a camera! 😫

Nora: *wraps Pyrrha in a hug* Don’t worry, Pyrrha! We’re here to help! And so is Jaune when he gets back from his trip!

Pyrrha: *slumps* Thank you, Nora…it already helps to have real friends like you and Ren…

Pyrrha: I’m just feeling extra stressed right now because Jaune is out of town. He does this thing that makes me feel like I can be myself and forget all about being a celebrity!

Ren: Maybe we can help? What does Jaune do?

————————————————————

Pyrrha: *exhausted after long day* 😞

Jaune: *carefully undoes Pyrrha’s armor* You know, you had the cutest laugh when you watched that kitten video earlier.

Pyrrha: *standing limp as Jaune undresses her* I do not. I laughed so hard I snorted…!

Jaune: *puts Pyrrha’s armor away and undoes her ponytail* It’s cute! And you also have a great sense of humor!

Pyrrha: *sighs as her hair is let down* You’re just saying that… 😮‍💨

Jaune: *takes off Pyrrha’s circlet and undoes her corset laces* And you’re totally badass. 😌

Pyrrha: *closes her eyes and leans into him* Noooooo…

Jaune: *kisses Pyrrha’s forehead while shrugging off his clothes down to his underwear* Yeah-huh! You looked super cool yesterday when you deployed your shield and spear without breaking stride!

Pyrrha: *slumps against Jaune in her underwear* Mmmmm…

Jaune: *turns on fan and pulls Pyrrha down on comfy couch*

Pyrrha: *nuzzles and wraps herself around Jaune, reveling in the intimacy, warmth, and soft skin contact on her nose and forehead* 🥰

Jaune/Pyrrha: *cuddle up in a tangle of limbs for a nap* 😴

————————————————————

Nora/Ren: *sitting alongside Pyrrha with their arms around her*

Pyrrha: …thank you both, but it’s just not the same…😞

[howi99]

Ren: ... Someone is approaching!

JNPRR: *readying their weapons*

...

Tyrian: *jumping from one of the houses* Oh? I see i was expected, wasn't i? *Giggle*

Jaune: *eyes flash to brown* Damn it, just what we needed. A psychopath with too much time on his hands. What are you here for? *Point crocea mors at Tyrian*

Tyrian: Aw~ you want to be the one i play with? Too bad! I'm here for the girl. *Point at Ruby* But... You intrigue me. You seem to know of me?

Jaune: *eyes flashing to blue* I have no idea what you are talking about. I don't know who you are, but i can say that you will regret going against u-

Tyrian: *with a lot of agility, goes on the offense, trying to cut Jaune leg, which he blocks with difficulty* Good~ you know how to use that shield of yours.

Ruby: Jaune! *Shoot at Tyrian, who parries each bullet without too much difficulty* Don't be this impatient little one, i'll be here soon~ *leap to Ruby using Jaune shield as a platform to get himself more momentum* Missed me? *Use multiple attack to try disarming Ruby*

Pyrrha: No you won't! *Use her semblance to remove Tyrian weapons from his hand*

Tyrian: *cackling* You think this will help you? *Dodge Nora's attack* Woah there! Almost got my head!

Nora: *gritting her teeth* That's the idea! *While continuing to put pressure on Tyrian, Ruby uses Electric Dust to boost nora* Take that! *Hit him square in the chest, making him fly through the clocktower*

Pyrrha: You got him?

Tyrian: *maniacally laughing* Oh! That's what they call a homerun! *Dash quickly from the tower, kicking Nora in the guts, breaking her aura*

Ren: NORA! *Goes to her, looking if she is alright*

Tyrian: *shrug* Toys aren't as durable as they used to be i see.

Jaune POV

//Use my power//

Jaune: *blinking* What? Wasn't that-

//concentrate and imagine a gust of wind//

Jaune: *panicking* Who are you? What's going on?

//*sigh* Of all the host why must i have gotten a chatty one that i can't switch place with. You have magic. Trust me, point at your ennemis and imagine a guat of wind. Or fire. Or anything that will hurt him. I'll take charge of the difficult part//

Jaune: Your voice, aren't you-

// yes, it's me, Ozpin. Now stop asking questions and save your friend.//

Jaune: ... *Nod, then concentrate on making a ball of fire*

// By the gods, with how much aura you have, you could almost be a mage.//

Return to the fight

Tyrian: *fighting both Pyrrha and Ren by himself* You are good, but you both are still lacking in technique and bloodlust!

Jaune: *opening his eyes* FIRE!

*a ball of fire around the size of a basketball goes straight to Tyrian face*

Tyrian: *jumping out of the blast trajectory* Well well well! I even found you at the same time!

Jaune: *panting like if he ran 5 miles* That *huff* was *huff* really hard!

// well, i did just wake up. It's difficult to transform aura into magic, you know!? Gee... Anyway, you should dodge//

Jaune: What? *Sees Tyrian stinger going straight for his throat* OH GOD! *Deflect the stinger away clumsily with a shield bash*

Tyrian: *smiling* Now what should i do? Should i take the girl? Or the ghost?

Qrow: *descending from the sky, attacking Tyrian with his scythe* How about neither, pal?

Tyrian: *dodging with a somersault* Hm... Maybe i should get serious? I am disarmed and now the crow has finally shown himself.

Qrow: Kids! Leave the area! I'll take him on!

Ruby: Uncle Qrow!

Qrow: *turning to Ruby* Now!

//He does have a point, you all are keeping him down and it would be wiser to leave for now//

Jaune: *nods* Let's go team! You heard him!

NPR: *nods at Jaune*

Ruby: But he needs our-

Qrow: *still attacking and dodging Tyrian* I can't fight at my best with you here! Go, now!

//He needs to be alone to use his semblance against an enemy//

Jaune: Ruby! Believe in your uncle damn it!

Ruby: ... Fine.

__________

Qrow: *rejoining team JNPRR* He got away. But he shouldn't be going against us for now.

_NPRR: *looking intensely at Qrow*

Jaune: ... Hey, you old sack of feathers, when i was recovering, it didn't come to you it would be nice to tell me i had a ghost in me!?

Qrow: *Wincing* To be fair, i didn't know how to tell you the information.

Nora: And you didn't tell us he could use magic!

Qrow: ... No, that's news to me too.

Jaune: *sigh* the voice in my head is telling me it shouldn't be possible, but with how much aura i have and my semblance-

Ren: You discovered your semblance?

Jaune: *shake his head* Apparently it regenerated my aura so we are assuming here.

Pyrrha: Go on.

Jaune: Well, basically Ozpin can channel his magic through my aura, making it far more potent than it would normally be.

Qrow: ... Does that mean-

Jaune: Before you ask, yes, that apparently makes me like one of the maidens.

________

My first try at putting more action in a scene, though i did cut the fight in the middle since there wasn't going to be much dialogue and i'm not the best at representing a scene, so multiple would be hard af lol.

Jaune: You think I like being mother hen to you all?

Ren:

Nora:

Ruby:

Jaune: Fine. It's like crack to me.

After seeing Jaune's original concept art and how much it resembles Oscar...

It made me think, what if Ozpin's soul transferring to Jaune was absolutely locked into the story?

Naturally, many would say Oscar's removal helps alleviate cast bloat. Hard to beat that argument. However, what if he were still involved? Only, rather than being Oz's host, his role is something more wholesome: he is Jaune's anchor to life alongside Nora, Ren and Ruby.

Perhaps he's a student at Haven with his own fighting style, perhaps they rescue him in Mistral as another victim of the Grimm. Either way Oscar presents an innocent, green POV for Jaune to look back on who he used to be. Jaune still lost Pyrrha, and now has a man he loathes is stuck in his mind. Nora, Ren, and Ruby are the ones keeping him grounded. With time, Jaune slowly opens up to this new young friend. Without the Ozpin angst, Oscar's empathy, his curiosity, his understanding, his support to the people who let him into their lives is allowed to shine. If allowed to travel with RWBYJNR to Atlas, Jaune finds someone he didn't expect to find in Oscar, a little brother...

And They Were Roommates

Ren: ...You've been sighing a lot, Jaune. Is something wrong?

Jaune: It's nothing, I guess... But Nora and I are roommates, and...

Ren: Oh! Congratulations. I'm sure you two will be very happy together.

Jaune: What?! Nonononononono! We're just roommates! But... I've been having trouble finding anyone worth going past a first date. Like about a month ago...

---------------------------------------------------

About a month ago...

Jaune: Nora! Can you get the door?

Nora: (Opens door)

Girl: Huh? Is Jaune in there? I'm his date and... Why is there another girl here?

Nora: I live here, too.

Girl: Okay? That's weird. Actually, since it's just us girls, let me tell you that no girls are allowed any man I'm with, got that? I'll be sure to fix that once he's mine.

Nora: IF JAUNE WON'T PUT YOU IN THE GROUND, I FUCKING WILL.

Girl: Ah... Uh... O-Okay?

---------------------------------------------------

A couple weeks ago...

Nora: (Opens the door)

Gal: Hi~! Is my new sugar daddy Arc in here~?!

Nora: WHAT?!

---------------------------------------------------

A couple days ago...

Nora: (Opens door) WHAT?!

Lady: Omigosh~! You're Nora Valkyrie, aren't you? I am SUCH a huge fan of yours! In fact, I only agreed to go out with Jaune because I knew he was living with you~!

Nora: ...

BOOM!

Jaune: Nora?! What the hell was that?!

Nora: (Storms by, Dragging Magnhild) JAUNE-JAUNE, YOU HAVE SHITTY TASTE IN WOMEN! STOP BEING SO DUMB!

---------------------------------------------------

Jaune: And every time I go out with them, they're all terrible people! And Nora is always getting so mad about! I just... I don't understand why!

Ren: Hm... I wonder why...

---------------------------------------------------

A couple hours later...

Nora: Jaune? You okay?

Jaune: (Sighs) No, Nora. I'm not. I'm gonna die alone because I have terrible taste in women.

Nora: ...Do you wanna watch a movie and eat some dinosaur chicken nuggies?

Jaune: ...Yeah. I'd like that.

Nora: You get the movie. I get everything else~!

Sword and sorcery AU omake

Jaune: So, with the fact i can now cast magic, does this mean i'm a wizard?

Ruby: But doesn't your power come from a ghost like patreon? Wouldn't that make you a warlock?

//I am not a demonic entity or a god! I didn't make a contract with you, did i?//

Jaune: He disagrees with your statement since i didn't make a contract.

Pyrrha: Maybe a grave cleric then?

Jaune: Are you my ancestor?

//I lived for thousands of years, you all ARE my descendents!//

Jaune: Doesn't seem to be that. So i guess it would be Wiz-

Ren: No, you aren't a Wizard Jaune. Wizard learns magic, yours comes naturally.

Jaune: A druid?

Nora: can you speak with plant and animal?

//I'm telling you right now, the answer is no//

Jaune: Nope... A sorcerer then?

//That... Kinda work. Though technically you are channeling my power... I'm beginning to think you might be a cleric.//

Jaune: *sigh* Am i freak, that's what i am.

Qrow: *getting dragon and dungeons edition 3.5* Hm... I think you might be a favored soul.

Jaune: What's that?

Qrow: Think paladin x cleric but without the express need of a god or need of study.

//Considering your Semblance seem to be able to "heal" and "boost", that does sound about right//

Ruby: ... So we have a cleric/paladin, a ranger, a rogue, a warrior, a barbarian and Qrow.

Qrow: You don't give me a class?

Ruby: *shrug* We need a dm.

Qrow: *sigh* Just my luck, i'm always the forever Dm

[wu-sisyphus-gang]

Ren: How's that girl you're dating?

Jaune: She's fucking crazy dude.

Ren: What's her name?

Jaune: She won't tell me.
