Okay, we're two months at school (for those of who go to school), November is knocking at our door and we got our Volume 4 of RWBY setting off with the first episode last week.
Now, I wrote this fic to distract myself from all serious works I have been doing and reading since last two months. Four works I have been focusing on and right now, I have enough of it.
I began in September writing a fic about a resistance group based in a gender switched world covering abduction to the work of my two favorite mercenaries, one being more original than the other and one chapter not done yet and then going over to a conscripted sleeper agent who is trying to find his place in a world where everything can change.
Why I made this slight crack but also somewhat humoristic fic, despite already having one crack or like I prefer to call it Trash fic to focus on? Well, because my last focusses of reading and writing have been on RWBY and not on Infinite Stratos nor on Highschool DxD which is my normal working ground. And what does a frustrated writer do when he doesn't have enough from what the fandom offers him?
He starts his own. And if you don't want to hear me rant, too bad. I'm going to continue for a while and on the line you'll find the stories began but I'm not interested of stopping right now. So skip this if you want. I don't care.
This is going to be a bunch of one shots, maybe they'll be on the canon plot line, maybe they'll be in the universe of Merc of no Kingdom, maybe I'll put them on canon. I don't know and at this point, I don't give a fuck.
As for ships, I got four I really like and will be using in this story.
Arkos. If you haven't figured it out by now, I'm a huge Arkos shipper and I don't give a fuck if canon utterly nuked this ship with saying they won't bring her back, I don't care. There is enough fanwork out there to distract me and to make me feel happy, including my own. RoosterTeeth can do whatever they want. I'll continue to support this ship until the end of time.
ReNora/ Slothflower / whatever names those two have. Not a ship I'm that big of a fan off as both are characters I haven't worked with before but those two fit as well as Jaune as Pyrrha do with each other. Not my true OTP but I like these guys enough.
Shipping one of the two with another character is guaranteed to put me off.
Iceberg. Yeah, I got the idea a lot of you guys aren't really happy I chose for those two. Well, I choose those two because I don't really like to write pure yuri. Don't get me wrong, WhiteRose is adorable and Ruby as Weiss have a hilarious relationship but romantically, it's not something I'd see happening and it's not something I'd like to write about.
And I'm the author and I decide what I write. Weiss and Neptune have enough chemistry and similar attraction for me to make them work.
As now, we got on the last ship I am on. And it's fun.
I'm not a huge Bumblebee shipper nor a BlackSun but I know both ships got some pretty big fan base. And because I already kicked one fandom on the shins, I decided to go with a ship I like about those three.
SunnyBees. I like that ship with not two but three people. It has a simple reason. This ship can work. You don't have to go too OOC for those three to hook up. Neither Yang or Sun struck me like real jealous persons. Yang and Sun both want to make Blake happy and the two get along pretty much so I don't think either of them would have a problem sharing Blake. And you don't have to break someone's heart.
Blake might be a problem but given how she's struck on smut novels I don't think it will be that much of a headache and it can be a lot of fun.
Call me immoral, call me how you want but I think I had enough of the canon and I'll focus on what drove me to the series, namely fanworks. And I'll remain in fanworks if this goes on. The first episode of Volume 4. Well, putting me off isn't remotely bringing me close. Back to happy go lucky kind of things after Volume 3's awful ending. Sorry RoosterTeeth but that's rough.
And even with the war between those two fandoms going on. It's easier this way. You don't have to break any hearts by one of the two Blonds and the three are adorable.
And because there aren't enough SunnyBees out there, let's begin this one.
Blake had been sitting out on the roof. She had been escaping her friends a lot nowadays. With the last crazy event, she had barely time for herself. Things had finally settled down for a bit and now, she had time to think on another part of her life.
Namely, her social one. She closed her eyes and leant back. This should have been easy, right? Living with the White Fang and going on for some things should prepare her for anything. Should it? Should it?
Well, for one thing ,it didn't prepare her. Being caught up between two persons. Two persons so similar she couldn't believe it was actually three. Yang and Sun.
She had been partners with Yang for a good semester and while the Brawler was always trying to have fun on someone's expense, the Cat Faunus knew her heart was on the right place. She sighed. But then Sun came in the picture. The Monkey Faunus from Haven Academy. The guy who caught her up after she ran away from her team.
Blake sighed. She hadn't been thinking she would be caught up in a love triangle. She didn't want to hurt Sun or Yang given the fact she would hurt them in the future if push cymae to shove.
Her sharp senses caused her to look over her shoulder and she saw Jaune Arc on the roof. The former child soldier raised mercenary turned Hunter had an amused grin on his face. He looked at Blake who returned his nod to her.
"I don't see you as often on this place. Whatcha doing here, Blake? Need some advice." He asked while walking to her. She smiled. She wouldn't have thought this was a mercenary when she first met him. He didn't look like a merc. More like some guy who didn't belong here.
He sometimes hated it here, given how much of a floater he was. He didn't run away, he just jumped from job to job and he never committed. He just like going out on his own.
Something kept him here. Someone.
A red haired Spartan themed warrior. She mused on him. Somewhere she was jealous. He had one person having the hots for him. And she was the one having the hots for two.
She didn't believe Jaune and Pyrrha got close with how much time had passed and the two had begun to hang out often together. They weren't together-together like Nora called it but it would take just one confession or just a bit more from Pyrrha to claim the merc has her own.
He sat next to her, his eyes in somewhat of a grin. Since last semester he had begun to have more grins and laughs. His eyes were also beginning to light up more. He was the sole person who could counter Yang if she got in her puns and he had stopped Ruby when a hyper active sugar rush kicked in.
"What makes you say that I need advice?" Jaune grinned and laid back looking to the sky.
"Hm, I don't know. Given the fact you're out on your own. Given you're brooding more than usual." Blake glared at him. So he just countered her with his grin.
"So what's on your mind?" Blake looked to the sky.
"Why should I talk to you about that?" Jaune sat back up.
"Because Blake, from all our friends, I'm the sole guy who is okay with something immoral. So spill the beans, grumpy cat." Blake glare intensified but Jaune ignored it.
"And you won't believe it but I'm a melodramatic fool down there." He tapped on his heart. With a cheeky grin, he checked his scroll.
"Why do you think I would be doing something immoral?" Jaune smiled at her.
"Oh, I don't know. Maybe because you're found yourself caught between two certain blonds who both love hand to hand combat, have a shit kind feeling for humor and are both working on my nerves all the time?"
Blake had to give him that one. The two had a way on working on him. More than they even did on her own.
Blake smiled at him.
"Maybe if you'd start going out, they wouldn't have a reason to go on you."
"Or when they go out with you, I would be saved as well." Jaune announced with now, a real shit eating grin.
Blake became mute on his wording and she had turned red and wide eyed from his ideas.
"What?" She asked in a flat voice, causing Jaune to raise an eyebrow.
"You heard what I said, Blake. Go out with them and I'd be saved from their idiotic jokes." Jaune said in a clear voice.
"I cannot date both of them." Jaune raised an eyebrow.
"And why not? I don't think polygamy is really forbidden in Remnant. Okay, maybe in Atlas but I don't see any of you moving to that wasteland. So give me other reasons that I cannot be saved?"
Blake began to crumble.
"It's."
"Immoral. Yeah but sometimes immorality is the right decision and given the fact that both of us went through a lot, this would be something least immoral of what you have done." Blake sighed.
"I don't know if I really like them that much." Jaune shook his head.
"I think you like to the two enough for that. And given how much those two really like you, I don't think either of them will make an issue of it." Jaune stood up.
"But please think about it. It would save me from their shit jokes about me and Pyrrha." Blake eyes lightened up.
"Oh and why would that be?" Jaune lent closer to her.
"Blake, I'm not an idiot. And I just want you to confess to those two so I can get along with Pyrrha without those two making fun of me." The merc walked away to the door. He passed it and turned to one Pyrrha Nikos.
Her eyes were a bit flaming and she had a furious blush on her cheeks.
"Hey." Was the only thing she got from Jaune. Now the former mercenary was a bit frightful. He knew how strong Pyrrha was and how she could fight. Even with his training in project Cloud, with the Jackal on his ass, he wasn't sure he would get away unscathed.
"Jaune. What was that all about?" She asked, her voice a bit strained and her body acting the same way.
Jaune decided to test fate on its worst and gave her a smile. A real one. No grin but just a smile.
"Well, I decided to talk so I could win a bet and it would earn me two hundred Lien I'll be sure to share with you." He said.
Pyrrha took a breath. RW from RWBY and JNPR made a bet with who Blake would end up with. Jaune was the only one who had betted money on Yang and Sun. Not one of the two but both of them. Despite Ruby's furious blush and Weiss mouthing him off, Jaune put fifty Lien on it.
Pyrrha shook her head and she tugged on his hoodie.
"So you just decided to talk Blake in that kind of thing so you would a bet?" Jaune booped her nose in playful way. Something he'd never do in his life.
"Nope. I did that so they would leave me alone if I finally decided to get closer to you." The mercenary was now really grinning.
"If they focus their attention on Blake, I won't have to go through their shit jokes and we can maybe move on from it. It's enough with their frustrating sexual tension maybe we can move from ours." Pyrrha could light up the night with her blushing and Jaune smiled.
He was on thin ice, more than he actually should. While he was doubting his relationship with Pyrrha would be good, he found with the shit he went through his life, he found he didn't deserve her.
But it was that same life that he thought it allowed him he could have one happy point in his life. That being Pyrrha. And no matter what force that would come to him, he would fight to his last breath to save his lovely Spartan.
She tugged on his hoodie.
"How long?" Jaune sighed.
"Pyr, I'm not that good with figuring out my feelings. Frankly, I thought I didn't have them. Lost in my 'education.' But." He cupped her chin.
"When I'm sticking around you, it's not say real love I have. I can't say it's that. But with you, I feel safe. I, how embarrassing." He emphasized his part. "It might be, I feel secure. I don't have that with Ruby or Nora or Ren. You're the only person that makes me feel wanted. So I'm fine with you having feelings. And if you want to give this a chance, I'm willing to follow you." She blushed up a firestorm.
In a second, she moved her arms around his neck. While he was strong, maybe the only one close to her, she was still his better. She crushed her lips on his and found him captured in a kiss. His eyes shot open but he slowly returned the kiss. He wrapped his arms around her waist. She looked at him.
"Jaune." She let go of him and looked at him. His eyes who saw a lot were looking at her with honesty. He gave her a grin.
"Sorry, did I go too far?" Her arms wrapped around his neck.
"So I am the first one to make you feel secure?"
The mercenary's forehead touched her own.
"You're the first girl." He said. "My da made me feel save. But let's continue." He said while pressing his lips on hers.
She eagerly got in it, enjoying this. She thought he might enjoy teasing her but she was glad that teasing had come to an end.
Okay. That's it for now. I hoped you like this. Before you're telling me about Jaune being a goofy Knight and not a confident merc, look up my AN above. I said I could put this on the universe of Mercenary of no Kingdom. My rewrite of the series with Jaune being a merc. So I thought it could be fun to put it like this.
And for the Arkos element, sorry, I couldn't resist. So next time, we'll have the SunnyBees a bit more worked out. This can get very funny. But that's it for now. I hope to see you guys on the next one.
