[howlingday]

Ruby, up and coming hero blessed with the Silver Eyes, has heard terrible news! A horrible fiend has invaded the lands! A demon, hailing from a long and cursed line, master of sorcery and steel, a silver tongued trickster, a slave master, a depraved incubus, foul crafts hiding under welcoming illusions, a keen mind of gears and schemes and plots within plots, stronger than iron and quicker than quicksilver, all this and more, has taken control of an abandoned fortress! Determined to boldly rid the lands of this foul taint, (and to prove to Yang she’s a big girl!) she sets off to confront the monster alone! (Bad girl! That’s the first rule of adventuring: don’t go it solo!)

Except, no???????? Jaune has never seen or heard of any ‘demon’ around here. He just moved in, trying to strike out on his own, but nothing seems to be cursed from what he can see. He seems nice enough too. He’s fixing up the old ruin, disabling traps, healing folks when they wander into his place, and all that. Strong, smart, endlessly kind. Talks about his family a lot, they look so happy in the photo. That crest looks familiar, but it’s probably nothing. Surely he’s not the monster, but she can sure use his help to slay the monster when she finds him!

You see, the Arcs are only labeled villains because they refused to kowtow to the government way back when. Their views on life, other races, virtues, and such also puts them at odds with the narrative. The Arcs also have higher standards before they allow their kids to go on adventures, so even the weakest is very strong even to other adventurers. Slightly inspired by the Mind Reaver comic strips by Edd Lai.

So, I decided to have a look into Mind Reaver by Edd Lai, and I have to say I love the idea. A Mind Flayer that's actually a good guy and helps people who wander into his house. It's cute, especially when his niece and... servant, I think? Anyway, it's all so cute, and I highly recommend y'all check it out. Anyway, on to the story.

===========================

WANTED: DEAD OR ALIVE

JAUNE "SALEM'S PALADIN" ARC

REWARD ON APREHENSION

===========================

Ruby looked down at the wanted poster in her hand, carefully examining the features in the mugshot. She'd heard many stories about the Arc family, though much of it was told in the darkest of night as a warning to not stray too far from home, or to not stay up too late, or to file your taxes on time. His jawline was coated in thick hair, and his blue eyes gazed death into the soul of those who view them. There were many other tales, too, like how he'd sway any woman into being his slave, take cannon fire with his bare body, and would even subject whole armies with his sorceries.

Ruby looked up from the poster to see the baby-faced man sitting across from her at the table. She'd found him, demanding to engage in honorable combat between warriors! His response was, "Can we get coffee first?" Ruby agreed and watched as he sipped from his mug after waiting for to cool.

"Ooh!" He winced. "Still kinda hot."

"Uh..."

"Oh, sorry!" He then handed her a napkin. "I think I forgot to split our share."

"No, you already did." Ruby shook her head. "Besides, there's more important stuff going on here!"

"More important how?"

"I mean like this!" She slapped the wanted poster onto the table, earning a groan from him.

"Not another one." He shook his head. "Can we finish our coffee first?"

"I... I guess?" Ruby shrugged. "But why aren't you all... Y'know, big and scary and trying to mind-break me?"

"...Because I can't?" He asked more than he said. He then took the poster in his massive, clawed hands. Each finger was about the size of a breakfast sausage. "I really wish they would get a new picture. They make me look like a monster in this."

"Aren't you?" Ruby asked.

"Half." He answered. "Well, kinda sorta. You see, my great-great-great-"

Ruby whirled her fingers in a wheel as he rounded off each great in his ancestor's name. She'd heard a lot of tales about monsters and humans and faunus getting together, except for the Grimm, who were mindless beasts of destruction. What usually came from these unions was either monster or human or faunus, but on rare occasions, half-monsters would be born. These creatures were then cast out of the village upon their discovery, usually ending with their own demise. It was sad and cruel, but terribly not uncommon.

"-great-grandma Salem, the mother of all Grimm."

"Wait, I thought Grimm couldn't reproduce."

"They can't, but she can. Or could, since she hasn't had any kids since The Great Tear." Open in dimensions from a huge magical clash, brought monsters into Remnant, new age of war, magic, and adventure for everyone. Ruby knew it well enough from the stories. "Ooh! Still hot." He chuckled, after wincing from another sip of hot coffee.

"Okay, so then why is everyone after you? Half-monsters don't usually have posters, unless they commit a crime."

"Well, I didn't."

"You didn't?"

"He did." Ruby whirled in her seat to find a young woman standing in the doorway to the coffee shop. She stepped in with guards trailing behind her, all heavily armored, while she herself wore an elegant officer's jacket. "Jaune Arc, I am placing you under arrest in the name of the Schnee Dust Queendom."

"What did I do?" Jaune asked.

"Yeah, what did he do?" Ruby asked.

Snapping her fingers, a heavy, white book was brought to her hands. Opening it, the pages fluttered until they landed on a pair of pages with Jaune's name and mugshot on them. Clearing her throat, she began.

"Corrupting the minds of the youth."

"Hey, Mr. Whitley asked me to tutor him!"

"Silence!" She barked, her face growing a bit red. "Seducing a high ranking officer of the Schnee Dust Queendom."

"Your mother was a nice woman! She kissed me first!"

"I said shut up!" Her face grew even more red. "And public indecency while resisting Queendom duties."

"You fired a cannon at me!"

"And stripped yourself bare in an attempt to intimidate us."

"MY CLOTHES WERE BURNED OFF!"

"AND I SAID SHUT UP!" Face completely red, she tossed the book behind her in a fury. "You will surrender yourself at once, Salem's Paladin!"

"Oh, come- I don't even know Salem!" He defended. "I've never even met my great-great-great-great-"

"Great." Ruby groaned. "You got him started again."

"And who are you?"

"Ruby Rose, bounty hunter." She smiled. "Who are you?"

"Queen-Heiress-Apparent Weiss Schnee," she huffed, "and I'm taking this criminal in."

"Nuh-uh."

"What do you mean, 'nuh-uh'?"

"I mean nuh-uh."

"-great-great-great-grandma Salem!"

"Did you add two greats on there?" Ruby asked.

"Enough!" Weiss snarled. "You are both being brought into custody!"

"Aw, really? But couldn't we have... coffee?" Ruby winked at Jaune.

"No, we can't." Weiss answered.

"Jaune!" Ruby whined. "You were supposed to throw coffee on her!"

"Excuse me?!" Weiss screeched.

"Yeah, excuse you?!" Jaune reeled back. "Why would I do that?!"

"Because it'd be totally cool, like in an action comic!" Ruby reasoned.

"But it would hurt her!"

"THAT'S THE POINT!"

"ENOUGH!"

The cafe rumbled as white circles covered the walls and floors. An angry Schnee huffed in and out of her nose as she pulled out her rapier. Behind her, soldiers readied their guns on the two. Ruby glanced to Jaune, who gulped at the sight. Looks like she was going to do this alone.

"Are you sure you don't want coffee? It's really good~!" Ruby sang.

"Oh, please," Weiss rolled her eyes, "do you really think you can throw coffee on me now that I'm aware that's your- ARGH! BIG NICHOLAS FUCK!" She held her face as very, very, very, very, very warm coffee splashed onto her face.

Ruby took the cue and grabbed Jaune. Together, the two weaved through gunfire as yellow and red petals fluttered to the floor. The two had successfully made their escape, and it seemed the soldiers inside were easily distracted, too, as they began barking orders at one another. One of them actually barked like a dog, too, which was weird.

"AFTER THEM!" The barking died as the Schnee roared over them all.

Weiss used a blanket of napkins to wrap around ice dust and held it to her face. One guard remained behind, holding her book. Through her anger, she gave him an order that would turn the world upside down for Ruby and Jaune.

"I want wanted posters in every kingdom," she seethed, "and I want that Demon Couple locked up YESTERDAY!"

I poorly describe villains from different franchises I like (1)

Woman wants to die because the gods cursed her with immortality, all because she wanted to bring her dead husband back to life

Religious crusader wanted to kill all witches because his older brother got a hot witch girlfriend and he got upset over it

Was a hopeful prince, who was in a happy polyamorous relationship, and just wanted to make his father happy. But his homophobic father didn’t like his relationship, so he made him destroy his relationship with those her loved, in favor to continue on conquering worlds

Extreme perfectionist wanted to reforge the entire world in her image, mainly because she thought there were too many imperfections in it

On the Material Plane

It was the day after the sickening discovery in team CRDL's dorm room. Ozpin and Glynda were standing at the bullhead pads, awiting the arrival of the VPD Forensic Investigations Team.

Glynda: So what do we do now?

Ozpin: I don't know.

Glynda: We NEED to get ahead of whatever this is... before it gets even worse.

Ozpin: I don't know what to tell you Glynda. I'm at a loss, as to how or why any of this is happening...

Glynda: Is it related to what happened to CFVY?

Ozpin: I doubt it, but who knows. Hopefully this team will find us some answers.

Glynda: The rumors are already starting. We need to issue a statement to at least the student body, before things get out of hand.

Ozpin: I agree, I just don;t know how to address this issue... four young men rendered limb from limb and consumed... not really anyway to make that more palatable.

Glynda: Then just be honest, and let the students know that we are taking actions. Maybe even put in a stricter curfew?

Ozpin: They were in a locked room.

Glynda: You know those locks can be breached. It takes effort and some technical savvy, but they can be.

Ozpin: I know. We'll inform the students of the investigation, and we'll instate a curfew. Until further notice all students must be in their registered dorms by 8 pm.

Glynda: Any exceptions?

Ozpin: No.

Glynda: So I can deny Ms Scarlatina's request to have Mr Arc share her room?

Ozpin: Without Question.

I think it would be best to be careful about how we read into the show's symbolism, because saying "The soulless creatures that are drawn to negativity and have no will of their own except to destroy society are clearly meant to be a stand-in for minorities" is an EXTREMELY loaded statement that carries implications I don't think you've thought through.

it sure is a loaded statement ! good thing it's not what i said.

grimm--specifically the cultural perception thereof, i.e. that they are evil soulless monsters with no purpose other than to destroy (<- which is itself strongly implied to not be true)--are used quite explicitly as a metaphor for the persecution of faunus by humans.

because a core pillar of anti-faunus bigotry--this is stated explicitly in the text in multiple contexts by multiple characters--is that humans treat faunus like monsters. it is strongly implied that this vector of anti-faunus bigotry specifically takes the form of a cultural perception that faunus are sort of "in between" humans and grimm, or in some other sense "adjacent" to grimm.

if we take into account "the judgment of faunus" this cultural perception becomes exceptionally clear: the faunus in the story are blamed by the humans for "leading" the grimm to attack the human settlement, even though what actually happened is the grimm attacked the faunus and the faunus fled to seek the relative safety of the settlement.

the symbolic role of the grimm in this configuration is twofold: they represent 1. the dehumanization of the faunus and 2. the violent persecution suffered by faunus because of that dehumanization. humans blame faunus for the violence of the grimm and faunus are therefore cast out to fend for themselves against the predation of grimm; the grimm aren't stand-ins for minorities, they are bigotry manifest.

and that's the Whole Point of the white fang wearing grimm masks: "humanity wanted to make monsters out of us, so we chose to don the faces of monsters." humans treat faunus like grimm-lite, faunus reclaim that as a weapon against their oppressors. it's why the blake faunus reveal starts with blake screaming "there's no such thing as pure evil!" and ends with her staring at, identifying herself with, the grimm in the statue instead of the huntsmen while she reveals her non-human features.

like this isn't even symbolism really it's worldbuilding--this is, overtly, a stereotype that exists in-universe, that faunus are grimm-adjacent, and the symbolic role of the grimm-as-violent-persecution follows from that naturally as the faunus characters grapple with it (most overtly in 2-3, but it's an undercurrent in adam and sienna's disagreement in 5 as well.)

#and again like #i am in the Grimm Aren't Soulless Monsters Actually camp. #because they're...not actually portrayed that way brjkgh #like i think the story is headed in a Making Peace With The Grimm direction #hence why salem is at the nexus of all this—literally a grimm faunus for all intents and purposes #demonized for being grimm LONG before she starts to do anything remotely evil #and it’s that ostracism and persecution that caused her to resort to doing evil things in the first place #because she’s not given any other meaningful choice once oz decides she Needs To Die Because Grimm

[howlingday]

Salem: Only those of my and Ozma's blood can destroy me. You wear the crest of the Arc family, so you are indeed one of my descendants. Do you think yourself the chosen one who can end me?

Jaune: No... I wasn't born an Arc. I was adopted by my father after he found me alone in the woods. My father was an Arc, and his father before him... but not me. I'm not the chosen one.

Jaune: But even if that is the case... Even if I'm not the chosen one... I can't just let put innocent people in danger, so I won't- I CAN'T BACK DOWN!

Abigail Williams Meets Demon (Gone Wrong)

Abigail Williams after being kicked out of the Proctor’s house and promptly fired, running to the woods to cry, and being confronted with an otherworldly chaotic entity that offers to help with her problem.

This is the stupidest way to introduce my Crucible rewrite but regardless 💀💀. It’s titled “Salem’s Bond” and it’s the Crucible rewritten from the perspective of Abigail Williams, delving into her childhood, time with the Proctors, and the witch trials themselves… with a supernatural twist.

(It’s also a prequel to my four book series Vanished so that’s cool)

From Mistress to Servant

Salem: (bows head in supplication) Master, I am here as summoned.

Jaune: I have someone to introduce to you. Then you will report everything you know and have discovered.

Salem: Of course.

Jaune: Meet my bride...

Salem stumbled back away from the pit of grimm slime that had been converted to act as a conduit to her new master.

Salem: Bride?

(Images generated by perchance ai text-to-image)

Velvet: Is there a problem?

Salem: T... there is no problem Mistress! (bows head in supplication)

Velvet: You were right dear husband. She knows her place.

Jaune: Now to see if she can continue to serve ... speak of what you know.

Salem: (lifts her head) I have contacted all my agents, and consulted every resource I have...

Velvet: And?

Salem: The relics are the only threat to you. Legend speaks that if they are combined the brother gods will return...

Jaune: (Laughs) Brother gods... worthless upstart twats.

Velvet: Continue.

Salem: Yes, Master, Mistress. The relics are said to be trapped in vaults below each Academy, but that information is old, and the only confirmation I have is through Lionheart who I cowed to my will before you're arrival...

Jaune: And where is this Lionheart?

Salem: Haven... he is the headmaster.

Jaune: Let's use retire for the evening my love... we visit Haven and this... Lionheart on tomorrow's evening.

Salem: Master my I inquire...

Jaune: Ask...

Salem: What will become of Lionheart? He is... was important to my plans...

Jaune: You plans are no longer valid. You serve our will.. as for Lionheart... my bride?

Velvet: We have no need of him... after we seize the relic...

Salem: But... my plans... my salvation... then of my curse!

Jaune: They are of no concern. You serve our will... or would you like a reminder?

Salem: (Bows her head in supplication) No Master.

Salem's grew wide with utter terror as the "bride" stepped out of the grimm pool...

Velvet: Too Late.
