RWBY: Nightmare Grim -Yang & Ruby
@sir-adamus made a great post on how they feel Yang being infected by a Nightmare Grimm would go that can be found here. I broadly agree but here is my overall take for both Yang & Ruby:
Yang:
Yang would basically start, stuck in an arrested development situation, straining to keep a broken family functioning as a small child and her 'glass coffin' would be the cabin in the woods she went to find Raven at.
I think Weiss & Blake would be people who came into the home as well but also need to be cared for. But as the others arrive they begin to age up, fight off aspects of the Grimm & Yang ages with them. This causes a shift in the Grim.
Yang's first stage s basically "Wear her down through attrition of childhood trauma" But when that doesn't work and the others start actively fighting it the Nightmare shifts to "They don't need you anymore and are going to leave you" Cue Yang making the journey to the cabin to be greeted by a Grim-Raven.
Ruby:
Then there's Ruby, I'd say that with V9 implying her modelling herself so heavily after her perfect but also tragically gone mother who is not strictly healthy and she' essentially haunted by someone she didn't know so...
Ruby is all lone wolf huntress, but she's functionally a ghost to the 'public'? In essence she is Summer Rose rather than herself, white cloak and all, and there's likely a decent amount of cemetery and death imagery around.
Ruby's "Give yourself over" event would likely a mysterious mission she needs to go on all alone. One that will take her away from the place she's protecting & the people she cares about there. Her subconscious defense would be needing to be more prepared and dealing with local problems.
Conclusion:
Hilariously, while Yang's nightmare happening wouldn't radically change the plot over much, tons of Ruby's issues would likely come to light sooner if she had a Nightmare infestation and at least scale back her issues going into V9.

pls.. pls. Tia crumbs
I am facing withdrawals 🥺
ERMMMMMM i wanted to finish something for the ongoing Stitch Event (for reference, i started it during it’s JP run 😭 and even wanted to repurpose it for the old wardrobe meme months ago, wheee) but i don’t think I ever will truly finish this tbh. So I haphazardly cobbled the gist together on top of my wip and i’m calling it on this attempt!! Do you see my vision
thought it’d go well with Grim’s Lilo 🥺

That other anon was on a ROLL with their Dust / Murder takes, (Crowshipping my beloved) so i'm here to... offer up some content for the masses... [holds out my tray like a little victorian boy showing you my wares]
I.. really like the thought of Murder working with Core Frisk for the Omega Timeline.. More than I like the thought of him working for Nightmare..
I see it as him doing it for both "community service" and just needing to do something with himself, mostly to redeem himself through assisting those who's AUs have been savaged by who-knows-what. It's to fill the void nestled deep within him, the guilt of killing everyone he loved, the trauma, he's trying to make up for it by helping a little sort of undead(?) kid run a timeline for refugees and monsters who just wanna chill.
EEK what if he has a nice little house. and vases with flowers. and he works on his trauma can we have some healthy Murder Sans moments everyone. Please. Let him be healthy once more.
(And hey maybe while we're at it we can give Killer the support he needs but maybe I'masking for a bit too much now)
I love that. He deserves that for himself. Just Murder chilling in his little house with his flowers and his altars to Death, helping out where he can and just finally able to relax and heal.
I’d think seeing that might help killer feel more certain that the same is possible for him, but itll probably take a long while before that happens. especially if this killer knew a dust that was with nightmare. hes more likely to avoid dust in that case, he definitely tormented the dust that was with him while in stage 2 and seeing a dust might just force him into stage 2 anyway.
but anyway I want murder to be able to stop & so what hes always wanted and receive actual support and help that isnt with the caveat that he must keep hurting and killing people like itd be in a bad sans au. and id imagine that grimm and reaper are very proud of their priest(ess) for managing to get this far, and will always attempt to support murder’s other worshipping versions the same.

With the teaser trailer for the new Halloween event coming to the Japanese server of Twisted Wonderland,
I AM SO HYPED AND READY FOR THIS Y'ALL HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA!
I knew this was coming, we ALL saw this coming, WE ALL KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN EVENTUALLY! Let's be real, The Nightmare Before Christmas and Yana's art style is a literal match made in Heaven!
Now I know people are wanting to see Yana's version of Jack Skellington, but honestly
I wanna see a yassified Oogie Boogie.
Paired that with a Jamil SSR?!
It's too hilarious that it's so perfect because how do you yassify THIS?!
The dude is literally the personification of Jamil's worst nightmare! I wanna see that!
