Inspired by Coeur Al'Aran's Professor Arc story, this asks the simple question: What if Jaune had actually attended the Vacuo Academy for Gifted Youths as he claimed? Between a fake resume, a sociopath for a partner, criminal contacts, White Fang agents, and overall bad luck... it's going to take everything he's got keep his cover at Beacon.

When Jaune's forged transcripts were rejected, his only choices were to return home or stay in Vale. In a random act, Jaune decides to open a massage parlor! He had the training for that! Jaune starts a new chapter while still trying to become a Huntsman, while also making friends with both civilians, Huntsmen, and .. criminals? Life's never been more interesting! Coverart by Kegi!

I am not blind. I am not deaf. I'm sure as hell not a masochist. I am clearly not a pedophile for a certain explosion loving crazy kid. I maybe a 'little' bit sadistic, but that doesn't mean I would hit on a pain loving tank Ojou-sama. I don't have a fetish for self-proclaiming, useless, glutton, alcoholic, goddess. I could have had an harem for heaven's sake! Why ?

When Jaune's forged transcripts were rebuffed, his only option was to return home in disgrace or forge a new life in Vale. Opening a diner was an impetuous decision, being good at it a stroke of luck. Becoming the favourite haunt for students, teachers and criminals alike…? That was neither, but it sure did keep things interesting. Wasn't the civilian life supposed to be easier?

Jaune had always dreamed of being a Hero, of being someone. But dreams were just that; for in the world of Remnant the Class you are born with determines your fate. Jaune was born a Blacksmith, and thus that was his destiny. But when a strange opportunity allows him to change that, can a simple Blacksmith become something more within the Beacon Academy for Heroes?

When Hachiman receives a request meant for him alone, he figures that perhaps he can use it to his own advantage. But maybe, just maybe, something will change in him and his requester along the way... Feedback appreciated, can get OOC.

Desperate for admission into Beacon, Jaune strikes a deal with the God of Darkness for a supreme ability. A gift like The Gamer requires significant sacrifice, however, and Jaune's lifespan bears the burden. With a broken ability but only 5 days left to live, postsecondary education becomes the least of his worries…

A disruption in the Eclipse Gate alters the course of one boy's life forever. Now belonging to a world he was never supposed to know, he lives a new life full of adventure, love, and just a dash of craziness. It's not about where you are, but who you are that defines you. A FTxRWBY crossover.

Victory can prove bitter, especially when you're the only one alive to see it. With the world in chaos and everyone he ever loved dead, Jaune Arc makes a deal with the devil for one last chance to go back and change it all. But devils don't play by the same rules as humans, and Salem never did say how far back he'd go. Or how much deeper the war between her and Ozpin really went.

Because accelerated plot progression is to FanFiction as long titles starting with 'RE:' are to Light Novels. Kazuma and his vibrant cohorts, through their primary means of victory: sheer luck and guile, somehow manage to kill the Devil King, who just happened to be around in the neighborhood. Humorous ramifications abound.

He didn't know the first thing about running a school, nor fixing a political disaster spanning all of Remnant. Hell, he didn't even know how to deal with the world-ending conspiracy in the background, let alone a former-headmaster-possessed child. Yet here he was, leading Beacon Academy into a new age of glory. Or ruin. Definitely a fair chance of the latter…

Jaune is a teenage 'scientist' who specialize in Dust, Aura, and robotic research. After a curious experiment resulted in an android gaining a soul, he was recruited by Dr. Polendina to continue the research. Through series of events, Jaune found himself in Beacon Academy continuing his work as the Head of the Beacon's new Technology Department.

A hero, someone the people could rely on, he wanted always wanted to be one, A childish dream that was crushed by the sins of his people, he was used as a scapegoat, something for them to cast their sins upon and blame. He became all the worlds evil that day, burned and turned into a monster by their sick delusions. But even if he was a monster, he'd still become a hero...

A simple accident. That was all that it took to stop him from using Crocea Mors in his combat class. Through that accident a betrayal is exposed and his restraints are unleashed as Jaune discovers his true potential. Inspired by 'fearless hero' in season 2 episode 5 of RWBY Chibi. Pairing undecided, currently rated M to be safe for future chapters.

So you find yourself in an environment considered hostile even on a world full of monsters. What do you do? Try to survive, of course. And if you manage to do that? Well, then things can change...

Jaune Arc wanted to be a hero. To help people, protect them. But destiny had other ideas, unfortunately, and he was born with a body broken to the point he couldn't. Instead, he sought a different way to help people. If he could not wield the weapons of Man to protect Man, then he would make them for others to wield in his stead.

After months of being her teammate, Jaune thought there was nothing Nora could ever do that would surprise him. That was until she sat down next to him on his bed and held her scroll in between them. The contents of the video shocked him, but it was nothing compared to what would come after. Cover art by PotenzaCreators.

Kusanagi Godou just wanted to have the quiet, peaceful life he didn't manage to get in his past world. But who was he kidding? When there was a Dungeon full of monsters, beautiful goddesses, and animal-girls, there was no way that was going to happen. Still, the Gods here were way more friendly than the Gods he'd met in the past. Maybe just a little too friendly.

She always ignored him as best she could, insulting him, outright ignoring him and even threatening him with violence a couple times. She knew what he was after with her. She knew he was just like the others that had come before. So upon another terrible attempt at flirting, she made her feelings known. What she hadn't expected was his reaction and how much it made her heart hurt

What if Issei had manifested his sacred gear earlier in life? What if he and Ddraig became friends with Great Red before meeting Raynare? Trained in secret from a young age in preparation for his rival, Issei is shocked when it turns out to be a beautiful silver-haired girl who just transferred to Kuoh Academy with her blue-haired friend. Badass Issei x Harem x Fem Vali x Tiamat

Spart, having seen the future of the RWBY decides that a change is needed and wishes to bring in that change. So, he brings RWBY, JNPR, Beacon teachers and parents to change their fates and to show them the multiverse of Jaune Arc. From hero to villain, hunter to humble shop owner, secret agent to ladies man. The realities of Jaune Arc are infinite.

"If something sounds too good to be true, then it probably is." Jaune learned this lesson the hard way at a young age. Remnant might be full of liars, phonies, and fakes, but that wouldn't stop him from becoming a hero!

A young boy twisted by the the cruelty of life rises from the most despicable of chasms. With many of those like himself who were imprisoned by those who bartered and traded with lives, leading them to make the world a safer place where no one is ever is ever again twisted by malicious intent. For his howling is the call of tragedy, this time for others. Warning: dark themes ahead

"I will not fear the night, nor the creatures that lurk beyond my sight. I will find the power that dwells inside and forge my weapon from the Light. I will use its power to face my way through Demons and Blights. To make my way home from Darkness this Night" – Jaune Arc. Survivor. The White Wolf.

Getting the [Boosted Gear] is expected for Issei. What if he gained it a month early and another one as well? Let the Games Begin... IsseiXHarem (if it wasn't, it wouldn't be DXD). Now has a TVTropes page!

Forced to admit that Crocea Mors didn't feel right in his hands—no matter how he held it—Jaune Arc struggled to overcome this obstacle through the insane idea that Aura could become more than just the armor that protected him. Barriers broke as he pushed past the limits of what Aura was capable of, creating and forging his very own weapons from the manifestation of his soul.

The day before he leaves for Beacon, Crocea Mors is stolen, Distraught at losing his chance at being a hero, Jaune comes across a sword in the stone. Little did he know how much his life would be changed, or the man he would become. (Yes I know Caliburn and Excalibur were different, Yes I changed some details, and No Fate Stay Night stuff)

Being reborn in the world of RWBY means that the Grimm are your natural enemies. My case is the complete opposite. I'm not really sure who I pissed off in my previous life but being reborn as a Beowolf was definitely not something I expected. (SI)

Jaune, formerly known as Arc, is banished from the family. However, in his blood legacy, is something powerful. The power to form a contract with the most powerful of Remnant. Dragons. Watch as Jaune Ryu-Long rises from banishment and show the world his power and legacy. Jaunexharem

I wasn't strong enough to protect Orario, and as a result the city crumbled and died, vanishing in a sea of flames, everyone I'd ever loved following soon after. I did gain the necessary strength eventually though, but by then it was far too late. So when an opportunity to go back and do it all again presented itself, I took it, and this time, strength would not be an issue.

Not many would think that Jaune Arc would be of any importance to the universe. His grades are low, his combat skill is nonexistent and he only got into Beacon because he cheated and lied. Yet, everyone is taken away from their universe to watch different versions of Jaune Arc. Will this not only change their perspective of Jaune but change the upcoming future?

Just when Jaune Arc lost all hope at the Vital invasion and during Pyrrha's death he makes a wish to go back to the past and stop the invasion from happening. He never realize how far in the past he was going to go. Strong Jaune through slow development Archarem confirmed Jaune/Pyrrha/Ruby/Yang.

Mysteries abound throughout the world of Remnant. Many questions remain unanswered, such as "Where do Grimm come from?" "Why does Dust lose its power upon exiting the atmosphere?" and "What the heck did we do last night?" Attempting to seek out such forbidden knowledge sets teams RWBY and JNPR on a bizarre journey which may alter the fate of Remnant itself (drunken marriage trope)

It didn't take long for Weiss Schnee to be sick of Jaune Arc's constant attempts at courting her, but when the young blond approaches her regarding something other than a date, what does this mean for the Schnee heiress? A tale of an unlikely friendship, and an even less likely romance. White Knight.

Faunus don't mature quite the same way humans do. Many develop more animal like traits throughout their lives, but not entirely without consequence. Blake finds herself in trouble when her sense of smell becomes hyper sensitive, and every aroma in the air is capable of bringing her to her knees. But salvation comes in the last form she ever expected: Jaune Arc.

Sure... He may seem to have no luck with women and the advice his dad gave him was terrible. So what? Jaune can still be charming without knowing and worm his way into the hearts of woman! Probably not... But maybe... Just maybe! With this strange semblance he's found he has a chance... A chance to be the ladies man nobody wants but everyone needs... Whether they know it or not.

Jaune had always wondered why his father had refused to train him in their family's traditional style of swordsmanship. He returns home to confront his father and fully realize his birthright, and in the process, learn what it truly means to be a warrior.

Seven days. Seven individuals. Seven punishments. As retribution for their actions in Jaune's worst week of his life a deal had been struck. In exchange for forgiveness, they were to be hunted down and punished just as they had done to him. Now, it was Jaune's turn to begin his own operation and things were going to be quite dastardly. (Sequel to "Operation: Jaune's Ex-Girlfriend")

Every family has its odd member, the one that doesn't fit. Jaune was just that, the black sheep. He had always wanted to be the hero, to be a Huntsman. But when your name is Jaune Salem Arc - Prince of the Grimm - and your mother is understandably against the idea, what is a young man to do? Why, run away to attend Beacon in pursuit of a dream, of course. What could go wrong?

Puberty hits late, and it hits hard. Natsu quickly learns that not even he can extinguish a fire when there is fuel to feed the flames. [NaLu]

She was a harbinger of darkness, a killer, a monster...and she was happily married to a man who had no idea.

Jaune was sixteen when the visions started; visions of war, of death, of a life not his own. Then came the voice, speaking of shadow wars, of gods and magic. He couldn't have known that Destiny had long since dealt him his hand; the Wizard's power had come to him. Ozpin!Jaune AU

Miura Yumiko decided to take actions for her own love, but if there is one thing we know about the rom-com god is that he doesn't like to play it straight. [HikioxMiura]. And then some other stuff happened.

It was said one met their Destiny on the road less traveled. For Jaune Arc this road led away from Beacon Academy and toward a path of mystery, adventure, friendship, and secrets itching to be unearthed. What legends lied over the next horizon? Only by taking that first step forward would he learn and find out. And maybe, just maybe, end up becoming the hero of his story.

"Congratulation ' You Have Gained The Power of 'The Gamer', And Are Being Reincarnated In A New World!" So, I died and end up in the world of Remnant, with my memories scrambled to the point I don't know my own name and in the body of a baby. This is so weird. SI/Gamer Fic.

Jaune had never been the most observant of people. That all changed the day he unlocked his Semblance. Now, as he arrives at Beacon, Jaune Arc is going to learn more about those around him than he really cares to. Some things are better left as secrets after all. Inspired by: Not This Time Fate, White Sheep, and Professor Arc.

All Jaune wanted was to be a huntsman. After being denied training again and again, his dream seems to remain just that. But the power from the ancient times calls for him and now his destiny is tied to that of Remnant, and many mistakes the Gods had made.

Neglected from every party and no one would accept him until a certain goddess chose him watch as he makes the Hestia Familia proud in the shadows.(OC x Harem)

A young man is given the chance to live a life of adventure and fantasy in a world he only read about in anime and manga. Now if only the crazy things that he keeps getting dragged into by his annoying goddess, or the people he meets would just stop, he would be satisfied and content with just murdering monsters from the dungeon. [Self Insert. Light Fusion with Nasuverse]

Sometimes meetings between people are fated to happen, and sometimes it takes manipulating from powerful sources to make people meet each other.

There's always a hilariously, thin line between love and madness. Watch as two bickering lovebirds embark in the next chapter of their lives... as a couple. Humorous Soma x Erina fluff. "You know, love is like...gravity! All it takes... is a little push!" Formerly "Bad Days"

A certain goddess lonely. A naive boy walks in unsuspecting. A "contract" is signed. (Slightly OOC Freya) M for flexibility

Jaune's seven sisters are possessed by the swords passed down the Arc family lineage and it is now up to him to save them.

*COMPLETE* A blossoming internet (Tumblr) friendship soon develops into something more. Nalu. AU. Slice of life. *COMPLETE*

When Jaune woke up back in his house with his sisters and family, all he could do was sigh. Every time he died he was forced to start over again, and this was what... the one thousandth time? More? If it doesn't matter how hard he tries, doesn't matter how much he fights. Then maybe it's time to just kick back and enjoy himself. Fate can find someone else to be its whipping boy.

He didn't know the first thing about teaching, Hell, he didn't even know the first thing about fighting! A shame then, that his forged documents painted the picture of an accomplished and skilled warrior. Now he's trapped teaching students his own age how to be hunters, when he doesn't even know himself!

The continuation of where the movie left off, detailing a possible future of Taki and Mitsuha's lives (bold and italicized "I" represent Taki and Mitsuha respectively.)

Cinder is dispatched on a mission to kill Qrow before he can recover. In the midst of the attack, she does battle with Jaune Arc, and finds herself unable to kill him. Instead she is driven by a very different emotion, one that may not be her own... but rather the lingering soul of Pyrrha Nikos, possibly still alive within her. Cover art by Jack Wayne.
