Stardew Jaune

by SimpleThief

RWBY AU. Jaune had no idea what to do with his life. He had no passion for anything and was only average at best. However, when his grandfather, Juan Arc, left him a will, Jaune's life changes. Jaune never knew it, but he enjoyed farming. It was relaxing and earned satisfying results. However, when magic and farming mixed together, things get a bit chaotic. RWBY x Stardew Valley

Hello, this is SimpleThief and this is my first Fanfiction. I'm a huge RWBY fan so I settled onto that topic. I've also recently played the game Stardew Valley that I'm sure most of you know about if a Youtuber you know played it. Combining the two interests of mine together I thought, 'Jaune would make a great farmer.' Then boom! I thought of an alternative AU of RWBY. Hope you enjoy the little work of mine. PLEASE READ NOTICE AT THE BOTTOM OF CHAPTER. Thank you.

Prologue

A blond male with shiny blue eyes sat on the edge of his bed. His hair was in a mess and he looked like he hadn't slept in days. In his hand was a letter…. But to him… it was his late grandfather's will.

Dear Jaune,

By now you should be wondering, why did I, Juan Arc, give you my will? The answer is simple; it's because you remind me of myself when I was younger. Both of us are clumsy, bad with women, and have absolutely no confidence in our self. It's unbelievable, right? Me, Juan Arc, was like Jaune Arc? The comparison just cannot connect. However, if you met me before I found my passion, you would've agreed.

Back in my younger days, before I met your grandmother, mind you, I had no idea what to do with my life; just like you right now. I wasn't talented in anything, only average at best. However, there in a valley called Vale was a little farming town called Beacon. Using all the left over money I had on me, I brought a good amount of land for me to cultivate on. At first, it was gruesome. I had to clear out all the stone and wood that occupied that land. Then I had to plow the soil with my own hands as the hot sun beat down on my body. However, the result was satisfying. I watched as my crops grew and I enjoyed every moment of it.

However, reasons that are not stated caused me to leave my passion behind me. After all these years, I still remember the feeling of victory and enjoyment as the crops I grew with my own blood, sweat and tears even as I laid on my death bed. I now leave it all to you. I know that you would truly enjoy it as I did. I really hope you do, as I place my last hopes on you.

Signed, Juan Arc

The letter was simple and straightforward; Go to my farm and do what I did. After several days of debate, Jaune was at where he was now, unsure if he should go for it and see if farming was his calling card or to stay behind and hope for the best, Jaune did not get a wink of sleep in. However, after rereading the letter multiple times, Jaune decided to go to Vale Valley, the place where his grandfather's farm was located.

[The End]

I know it was short and simple, but this is a prologue. If you know Stardew Valley then you probably got the gist of where this story is going to head. However, please do keep in mind the fact I'm also adding some stuff here and there along with some minor changes. Now as for the times I will be uploading a chapter will vary. I will upload whenever I feel like it because I'm not a dedicated person to these sorts of things, but I will try to upload as soon as possible.

Sit back, relax, and just wait for the next chapter. SimpleThief, heading out.
