Jaune had always wanted to go to a school to learn to battle the creatures of Grimm. But as a boy with no huntsmen training, no huntsmen knowledge, and no huntsmen transcripts, he had absolutely no chance of getting into a school like that legally. After scouring the darkest corners of the CCTNet, he finally found a lead. A place called Grimm Academy. Cover art by RKS-Kogiro.

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?

Jaune was only worried about two things in life; graduating from high school and dodging his hated bully. He didn't care about the supernatural, nor believe in it. But a chance encounter with a mysterious girl in red will open his eyes to a world that lives beside our own, a dangerous and deadly secret. But beware, child, for eyes once opened to the truth may never again be closed.

Although taken in by Raven and her Tribe as a kid, Jaune never saw eye to eye with the Spring Maiden, for both practical and moral reasons. When Raven sends him to Beacon to spy on Ozpin, Qrow, and Yang, Jaune must decide what lines he is willing to cross in order to become his own master. What good is being a better person than Raven if you're too weak to break free from her?

When Jaune Arc's life goes to hell, he's desperate to gain back what he lost. But what's the point? In this world, the weak die and the strong survive. Those are the rules. So, will Jaune die holding onto the light or will he survive as someone else, something darker? (Coverart by Khor Evik Vlakhavlakh)

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.

Jaune hasn't had a home since he lost his friends, not since the world truly fell apart. But when he enters into a curious arrangement with Remnant's most dangerous artist, only time will tell if he's ready to find a new one.

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…

They're a fun read if you enjoy this. Point is, RWBY characters are placed in a location to watch and react to multiverse versions of Jaune Arc. First M rating based on possible versions in the future.

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?

You thought beating Cinder, Salem and the Grimm were the hardest trials of their lives? Hah! No, the true trials come in changing diapers, cleaning peanut butter covered infants, and praying to the Gods that bang they just heard wasn't their little one falling out the cot at midnight. I'll say it, Arkos has their work cut out for them. Hilarity, fluff, and family high-jinks! Enjoy!

He paused and stared at her. "My what?" She rolled her eyes at him and stood up, palms flat on the bar. "Your daughter, Qrow. Your little girl. Genetic offspring. Mini me. Spawn. However you wanna call it, my daughter is your daughter." - A Qrow Daughter Fic.

Yang just wanted to be a better friend to Jaune and help cheer him up, but one thing led to another. That one night together was all it took for them to see a different side of each other. Sides seldom seen... but they're still just friends. Yang is definitely not noticing the dork more and Jaune is certainly not falling for another girl. It's just some clean release. Nothing more.

Yang decides to help Jaune tackle his motion sickness head on and takes him out on an airship joyride. However, when they crash onto an island in the south Mistralian Sea and are left stranded, they'll only have each other to rely on; if they don't kill each other first. Cover by mrk50

Will Jaune be broken or will he push through the muck of life to change into something new... something different? Most RWBY characters

Blake needed one person to rely on at Beacon, just one person she could trust in all things. It was an impossible expectation at first, but then Jaune was talking to himself and let the truth slip out. It was shameful to blackmail him into friendship, but it's not like she had a better idea. Jaune was no Adam, but he could be made into what she wanted. Or is he as weak as he seems?

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.

Jaune and Yang are slowly breaking, the trauma of the fall weighing them down in different ways. How will they keep moving forward? Picking up the pieces of these broken blondes, as they face a world threatening to crush them.

Jaune Arc doesn't want to follow in his father's footsteps. He doesn't want to hurt people - rather, he wants to help them, like his mother always taught him. Unfortunately, no matter how far he goes in pursuit of his goals, the past has a way of interfering with the present - whether it's his own past, or the misguided actions of people long dead, things are never simple.

Why, run away to attend Beacon in pursuit of a dream, of course. What could go wrong?

Ten years had passed since the Fall of Beacon and while the world had been saved by no small effort made by his friends and himself Jaune feels lost in the new world. He wanted to be a Huntsman to help those in need and while he still found his career satisfying he knew something was missing from his life.

He hadn't gone to combat school; he hadn't even taken an entrance exam. But Jaune Arc figured if he could at least make it past Beacon Academy's initiation, then he might just have what it takes to become a huntsman. And in a sense... he's right. The little training he received from his sister may just be enough.

The end of year exams are coming up, and Jaune couldn't be more screwed. He can't study like everyone else and is likely doomed to repeat them later in the year.

After ten years in the badlands fighting grimm Jaune finally returns home to fulfill a promise he made to a certain blonde brawler. JaunexYang. Rated M for language.

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.

Yang knew better than to look for love in a bar. She was neither foolish nor naive.

Jaune going to have a bad time. Especially since Blake found out about his super secret collection of doujinshis he made about team RWBY.

This is my version of us blondes by the spookiest of noodles, so hope you like it. There will more of this story if follow and favorite this and I'll get to it. Anyway on with the chapter

Loneliness is a dangerous thing. A shared drink. A shared night. He never asked for company, but she might be just what he needs. (Jaune x Neo, One-Shot, a possible way for the two to meet in Vol 5.)

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!

Jaune is in for it big time, after team RWBY discovers his collection of short smut stories. Ones that he wrote! About them! All the harem.

Many Fairy Tales exist in Remnant, and many of them are actually true. When you're a member of a race of Dragons whose semblances allows them to turn into human form, you probably believe in even the craziest sounding Fairy Tales. Jaune Arc is just your normal everyday Dragon sent to live life as a normal everyday human huntsman, until a certain Blonde Brawler discovers his secret.

She has existed before the kingdoms, before Dust, before Aura and even before the Grimm. She cares nothing for man or his creation and will see them all burn to ashes at her feet. She has only ever felt love for one but he was taken away before her very eyes, at least that's what she thought. Now she knows he's alive and nothing will stop her from taking him back. Art By Exvinir

After a rather harsh rejection from Weiss Schnee, Jaune realizes that he needed to stop chasing her and become stronger. With the help of his team and that of Ruby, Yang and Blake. He will strive to become the hero he dreams to be. All the while hiding a secret that would rock the world of RWBY.

This year was going to be different. He was going to make some friends, find one (and only one!) girlfriend, become a hunter and make his parents proud! It would be easy, right? All he had worry about was Grimm, a group of psychopathic criminal masterminds, international politics and most sinister of all...his own Semblance? Avoiding a harem has never been this hard...

Four years. Lie Ren was going to have to keep a rather large secret from the rest of the team, excepting Nora of course, for four years. Jaune Arc, however, seemed to have a knack for screwing things up. What was a girl to do?

By all rights, Jaune's dream of becoming a Huntsman should have died when he was expelled from Beacon. It won't, though, not if Qrow has anything to say about it. Their redemption lies beyond the walls of the Four Kingdoms, in lands where Grimm roam unchecked and unchallenged. Welcome to the old ways of Hunting. Welcome to the Wilds.

Seeing that young man die in initiation was horrifying for her. Even with all her time in the White Fang, she hadn't expected to see such an idealistic man as Jaune Arc die like that. It should have been nothing more than a tragedy... Instead she's now stuck with the lingering spirit of this guy following her around, and no one else can hear or see him in any way. Jaune x Blake

Fate likes to warp your reality, and destroy your perception of things you hold dear to you, lets follow one man on one such journey. [This story was originally posted on MistressWinowyll's profile.] [ORIGINAL ABANDONED]

Despite coming from a family of heroes, Jaune Arc wasn't quite there yet. He dreamed of attending Beacon Academy and becoming a master Huntsman. But for now, he was just Jaune. And one of his sisters wanted him to go ice-skating with her. Jaune wasn't the best at it, but what could possibly go wrong? Well, when it involved him that was just about everything.

In another life, he would've been called Jaune Arc. Today, he is Jay Branwen. So what are the perks? Training from the best of the best? A father that shields you, but is a hardass? The celebrity status? Check. And the bad stuff? Um...same as the perks. Life's bound to be one hell of a ride. One thing's for sure: we hate the word perfect. And Pyrrha Nikos is described as such.

It has been a cruel, cold world ever since Jaune has lost his partner. Under a starlit sky, he once again tries to reason with his sorrow... and everything changes. Reviews welcomed!

Even when the world makes no sense, and running for your life has become your profession, love can still confuse anyone. It comes in with a crash, out with a bang, or vice versa. It lingers in your mind and at your fingertips. It is the hunter, as much as the beasts of the world.

In a world where your allies can be just as dangerous as your enemies, sometimes it can be difficult for a criminal mastermind to find a little stress relief. That blonde idiot, Jaune, was just unimportant enough, just malleable enough, to be a viable option. It was meant to be a one time thing, an easy lay. Emotions were never supposed to get involved.

A chance encounter. A sudden rescue. A mutual love of ice cream. When Neopolitan is saved by the strange blonde, known as Jaune Arc, she can't help but wonder, what will become of their relationship. Cover Image by Kegi Springfield.

Shameless arkos fluff, with some renora and a passing bumbleby mention. Enjoy, but beware. As of the second chapter, it will work with cannon.

A bit of JaunexYang since RWBY Story Maker say there is just to few of these. Might be a one-shot or an actual multi-shot fic depending on the reviews. This summary is terrible and I know it. I am just really tired so sorry, anyway enjoy. I guess it's more romance, I might add humor and other genres later... Heh I am rambling, as I said enjoy! Cover made by AoNeko90 on Deviantart!

After a chance encounter, Coco finds herself involved with everyone's favorite goofy blonde. Is this the start of an interesting friendship, or maybe something more.

You know, Jaune could make a list of all the things that could possibly NEVER happen to him in his lifetime considering his luck with the ladies...having a pair of large breasts smothering his face was on that list. And yet, here he was. (A multi-chapter fic for a new ship, which I dub "Winter Knight"; AU from canon, with an OOC Winter.) (DISCONTINUED; TO BE REBOOTED!)

Five years after Beacon, Jaune's still going home alone as often as not. An unlikely encounter with Yang may have just the solution- drinks, company, and a hell of a lot of pickup lines. (Now Complete)

Jaune awakens his Semblance in the forest when Pyrrha awakens his Aura. It just so happens that it is reading minds of whoever he is looking at. What comes from such a thing? Well, obviously, hilarity and fun. (A mostly serious story with comedic relief from the thoughts of others). ((Co-op with Mika again.))

Jaune has had her- I MEAN HIS second secret revealed. It's not for the worst either.

Post Volume 3. Half a year has passed since the 'Battle of Beacon'. How does the world continue after all that has happened? What's left after everything has been swept away?

Jaune wasn't exactly Blake's type, but giving him a hand was the least she could do after he helped her out... it didn't have to mean anything - no matter what Yang implied! Also would Ruby cut it out with the knowing looks, I'm just returning a favour! Blake x Jaune realistic romance, focused on their times at Beacon Academy.

Jaune Arc, the retired Hunter, spends time with his eager daughter, answering questions and doing everything he can to be a good dad.

He wanted her to look at Lie Ren. One shot.
