It took that three day mission away from Beacon Academy, but if Yang looked back on the last months, their relationship was probably bound to change sooner or later. - Bumbleby smut. Starts in between V2 and V3, follows events of V3. May very well be continued with V5.

Promises. Leaps of faith. Blake and Yang have graduated Beacon Academy and now face a life they must build together. In the end, their two years of hard work are burned to ashes – Blake has doomed her heart to breaking and Yang has no one but herself to blame. But when all is said and done, when the stakes seem higher than they've ever been, can love truly conquer all?

Love is selfless. It is patient, faithful, and true. But it is also painful when left unrequited. And with a promise of trying involved, hope makes it all the more difficult to bear. Can Yang learn to reciprocate Blake's feelings, or will their efforts be the end of their relationship? (Vol. 1&2 compliant)

Team RWBY never formed. Blake and Yang have lived their separate lives and never met. They are stable as they are, but when their fates are mysteriously intertwined, Blake and Yang are forced to interact and rebuild their new, fractured existences around each other. It's a disturbing predicament, but nobody ever said switching bodies would be easy.
