This story isn't dead...
After three rewrites, this chapter is finally done!
Disregard the preview from the previous chapter.
I was originally going for a platonic friendship future, but it just didn't feel right with me. Not because it has to be romantic future, it's just that the direction I took didn't satisfy me. So after scrapping the original idea, I had to start from scratch all over again. Twice.
In all honesty, I'm a little unsure of this one. I sat on it for a few months before going over it again. I guess I'm not a knightshade writer like Cour, but I think it's okay, all things considered. If nothing else the plot is pretty funny if you like role reversals. Anyway, I'll let you guys judge.

Chapter 42 – The Stash
"So, what's next on the list?" asked Coco.
"Another potential future," said Archie.
"Juniper?" asked Yang, excitedly as her thoughts drifted, 'I can showcase my daughter to Saffron and Terra!'
"No," said Archie.
Yang's thoughts deflated, and Blake patted her on the back.
"Thinking about showing Jaune's sister?" whispered Blake.
"That obvious?" asked Yang.
Blake was about to answer back when Archie spoke…
"This one is between Jaune, and Blake," said Archie nonchalantly.
Blake's hand stiffened, and Yang stared at her with her mouth open.
"Eh?" asked Blake.
"Eh?!" asked most of the people, especially Ghira and Sun.
"Grandchildren?" asked Kali with excitement.
"Grandchildren?" asked Saffron in confusion.
"The last potential future showed Jaune with Yang's kid," said Ren objectively.
"So… nieces, and nephews?" asked Saffron, giddy.
"A cousin for Adrian… Interesting," said Terra intrigued.
"Who's Adrian?" asked Ruby.
With her motherly instinct kicking in Saffron whipped out her scroll, went to the photo album. Jaune would argue it was less motherly instinct, and more along the lines of showing off, but whatever. Without further ado, she revealed the photo of a tan baby with blue eyes, dark hair, blue suspenders with a blue sailor striped shirt laughing.
"Ooh, he so cute!" squealed Nora.
"Look at those chubby cheeks," cooed Ruby.
"I feel all sorts of fuzzy feelings looking at him… Is that normal?" asked Penny.
"Very," said Ruby.
Even the icy Weiss, Winter, and Glynda seemed smitten by the little baby.
"Is it wise to show off family with an enemy nearby?" whispered Coco to Archie.
Archie followed Coco's thumb to the people she gestured toward: Cinder, Emerald, and Mercury.
"I'll wipe their memories of Saphron, and Terra when they leave," whispered Archie back.
Coco, and Velvet, who heard with her superior hearing, blinked.
"You can do that?" asked Velvet.
"Under certain circumstances… I try not to for ethical reasons, but given how ruthless they are, it might be for the best," said Archie, who then turned to the larger group still fawning over the picture of the baby, "Ahem, if you don't mind?"
"Aww… You want to see him too?" asked Saffron who strode up to Archie.
"Err… N-No, that's not what I-"
Too late. Saffron practically shoved the scroll into his face, and Archie stared at the baby. A smile twitched a little, before he put a fist to his mouth, and coughed.
"Adorable…" grumbled Archie.
Saffron tilted her head, and made a noise in thought after a moment.
"Strange…" said Saffron.
"W-What is…?" asked Archie.
"Jaune used to do that whenever I handed over Adrian to him. Such a dork, trying to be cool about it and all, but I know he's just as affectionate as the rest of my family. I could have sworn you were him for a moment…" mused Saffron before she shook her head, "Nah, you're totally different from him."
"R-Right… Well, if you're done doing silly things with that scroll, we can continue watching," coughed Archie.
Ruby observed though, and took mental notes.
"I wonder what the potential future between Jaune, and Blake will look like," said Pyrrha.
"Yeah… Me too," said Yang and Sun glumly.
"Guys…" sighed Blake, though she could not deny her own interest.
Especially since Yang got interested in Juniper again, and, oh gods, her parents and Sun were watching.
'I'm curious, but why do I get the feeling this is going to suck…' dreaded Blake as the lights went down.
…
Jaune had his eyes covered.
"Whoa, totally different from the other potential Jaune," said Nora.
"Yeah, the one in Yang's version was totally buff," said Velvet.
Blake took in the sight of this version of Jaune. His hair was cut shorter and spiked, and he had something of a goatee on his chin. He was wearing sweat pants, and a Pumpkin Pete T-shirt. He was muscular, but was not the wall of muscle that Yang's potential future had. This version was leaner, but the biggest difference was the lack of tension in his body.
"Seriously? Pumpkin Pete?" snorted Mercury.
"What a dweeb…" muttered Emerald.
"Be quiet," muttered Pyrrha.
"Or what?" taunted Cinder.
Before Pyrrha could answer, Blake cut in to break the tension.
"He seems more relaxed in this future," noted Blake.
"Yeah, I guess this future turned out better," added Weiss.
"Was my brother terrible in the other future?" asked Saffron.
"No… He was dealing with some heavy losses. It affected his relationship with my… well his potential daughter," said Yang.
"His?" asked Terra.
"I had died at some point," said Yang.
"Futures are always in flux," said Archie.
"Ready or not, here I come, Savannah!" called out Jaune, and he looked around his living room.
"Savannah?" asked Ghira.
"Granddaughter!" declared Kali.
"Savannah…" mused Saffron, "Mm, definitely a girl's name."
Blake blinked, and blushed a little.
"Now then, where oh where can my little kitten be?" said Jaune to himself.
"Ooh, I wonder if she'll have kitty ears like Blake!" gushed Ruby.
Blake's mouth twitched upward a little at the thought.
"Or, maybe a tail?" posed Ren.
"Maybe sharpened teeth, and nails like mine?" asked Ghira.
"Ooh, maybe whiskers," said Sun.
"You're taking this well," said Yang toward the monkey-faunus.
"Well… kind of," said Sun, "It's a bit of a bummer, but hey! If Blake can be happy with the guy, then that's cool too. I mean I'm not going to give up that easy, even after watching this. But you can't control who people care about. Whatever happens, happens," shrugged Sun good-naturedly.
Blake stared at Sun for a moment, a sense of admiration rose within her. Adam would have never had such an attitude; he was possessive like that. It was no secret that Sun liked her, and tried repeatedly to hang out and go on dates with her. However, for him to say that that if it was clear that she found someone else that made her happy, he would be cool, really added some positive points in Sun's favor.
She wasn't interested in a relationship now. But when she was, Sun would definitely be on her shortlist.
'Jaune too? Maybe...' she thought as she looked back to the screen.
Jaune looked behind the couch…
"Too close for hide and seek," pointed out Weiss.
Then he looked inside a closet…
"That's a classic spot," said Tai, his own memories coming back.
"Didn't Yang hang out there all the time?" asked Qrow.
"Yeah," laughed Tai, "At least until she saw that old sweater of yours. She freaked out so much, I found her before I finished counting."
"It wasn't that bad," said Qrow.
"It was…" muttered Yang, who remembered, "I'm kind of glad Ruby, 'slayed' your sweater."
"I'm sorry! It was an accident!" repeated Ruby.
"Forget it, kiddo," sighed Qrow.
Next, he tried the kitchen pantry…
"That's an unusual hiding spot," said Glynda.
"Not for Blake," said Ghira, "She loved hiding in the pantry when we played."
"Dad…" groaned Blake.
"Mostly because she could snack when she hid. Although, the munching did give away her location," said Kali.
"Mom…" whined Blake, which got a chuckle from her teammates, Ilia, and Sun.
"Hmm… Guess Savannah ditched her usual hiding spots," said Jaune, who stroked his stubble chin, "Outside, maybe?"
Jaune opened the door to the townhouse's backyard. It was a modest yard with a small herb garden, and a few bushes, but little else.
"That's a nice house," said Saffron approvingly.
"Looks like the North Sector," noted Coco, "They're the only place in Vale that has those old-school architectural designs."
"That's a very affluent area," added Glynda.
"Well, two elite hunters can earn quite a bit," said Archie, "Though, winning the lottery helps."
Everyone stared at Archie.
"Really?" asked Blake.
"Yeah. Jaune bought it on a whim after a particularly rough long-term mission," said Archie, "Poppy Arc gave investment ideas, and helped set up a series of accounts so that the winnings would be self-sustaining. Money isn't much of an issue for you guys."
"Poppy, eh? She always was good with money," said Saffron.
"I'm guessing that's one of your sisters?" asked Pyrrha.
"Yeah," said Saffron, "She's a surgeon at a children's hospital, and a whiz with numbers."
There was also a stray cat with a calico fur on one of the fences that Savannah was fond of. Jaune approached, and looked down at the bush beneath the stray.
Nothing.
"Hey there, Polka, Savannah's not here, is she?" asked Jaune, as he moved to stroke the stray's chin.
The stray purred a little, and then scampered off into the neighbor's yard.
"Hmm… if that cat's not hanging around, then Savannah's not hiding here either. Guess there's just the upstairs area to look at," said Jaune, who went back into the house.
He got some hand sanitizer, and after wiping on, he went upstairs. Jaune walked past the cleaning closet at the top of the stairs, and moved to one of four upstairs rooms along the hallway. The bathroom was empty, and then he moved to the guest bedroom where his, and Blake's parents would occasionally stay.
He cracked the door open, and saw the back of a young girl hunched over on the guest bed.
"Ooh, turn around. Let grandma see you," squealed Kali excitedly.
Ghira didn't have the heart to correct Kali by saying that they didn't have grandkids yet. Besides, he definitely wanted to see Savannah too.
"…Found you!" called out Jaune.
A small child in the room tensed, and whipped to face him. She had a round face with some baby fat, and blue eyes. She had blonde hair with black highlights, and long cat ears with yellow fur and black fur tips.
"Soo cute!" squealed Saffron, and Kali.
"Blonde kitty ears!" added Ruby.
"Chubby cheeks!" threw in Yang.
"Well, that's a 180 from when we started," said Blake, who despite saying so, did not take her eyes off the child on the screen.
After all, it was her potential child… It was certainly a strange thought, her and Jaune together considering the most they could muster now was a polite conversation. It begged a question…
"How did we get married?" asked Blake.
Most of the audience stopped their cooing, and turned to Blake. Archie thought for a moment before he turned to her.
"Vacuan drive thru marriage," said Archie.
Everyone blinked.
"For real?" asked Kali, Ghira, Ilia, Sun, and Yang.
"Well if you want specifics, Ilia's bachelorette party got a little crazy," began Archie, "After a couple of drinks, three strippers, and a trip to a dairy farm, the two of you woke up with wedding bands on your fingers."
"I get married?" asked Ilia, a hopeful glint in her eyes.
"…Dairy farm?" asked Blake, scared.
"Do we want to know?" asked Yang.
Archie put a finger on his lips.
"What happens in Vacuo, stays in Vacuo," said Archie.
Blake immediately felt faint.
"Sounds like a hell of a party," said Qrow.
"Don't worry, the two of you were already dating when it happened," said Archie.
"They were?" "We were?" asked everyone, and Blake respectively.
"Yes. In a mission to prevent the sabotage of peace talks from Weiss' SDC and Sienna Kahn, Jaune took a blow meant for you from Adam. He then held Adam down long enough for Sun and Yang to finish him off," said Archie, "That's how your relationship started."
"Oh… I see," said Blake.
Archie continued the video to leave Blake to her thoughts.
"Dad! Err… No fair! I didn't hide yet," squeaked the girl.
"That sounds familiar," snorted Ghira.
"Blake's a lot faster now than when she was a little baby, dear," said Kali.
Blake's ears drooped, and she frowned as the rest of her friends giggled.
"Savannah, it's been more than ten slow seconds. You had plenty of time to hide… Speaking of which, what are you hiding there?" asked Jaune, curious as to why his daughter wasn't playing the game.
"I wasn't hiding anything! I just found this in my hiding spot. It's a wrestling magazine!" said Savannah.
"Wrestling magazine?" asked Tai, "Can Arc wrestle?"
"Nope… doesn't have the build for it," said Nora.
"There's a thought," said Pyrrha as she discreetly licked her lips.
"A wrestling magazine?" questioned Jaune as he made his way to the girl.
The girl handed the magazine to him, and Jaune took a look at the-
"What the…?!" yelped Jaune as he got a good look at the image.
A naked faunus girl with a mouse tail on all fours with an equally naked human man holding her close with faces of pure ecstasy upon their faces. If there was one small blessing, it was that the man's hands covered the woman's breasts, and the woman's hips and tail covered the man well enough.
There was dead silence in the audience, at least until…
"Hot," said Mercury.
"Perv…" threw in Emerald.
"Guess we're in the same boat, seeing that blush on you face," said Mercury.
"Fuck off," snapped Emerald.
"Pfft… is that it?" asked Raven, "So vanilla."
"Indeed. It's too tame," added Cinder.
"You can't even see the cock, or pussy," said Amber.
"Amber!" scolded Glynda.
"What?! Come on. I was on the road for years with little human contact. You have any idea how long it's been since my boyfriend pinned me down, and-"
"There is a child in the audience!" cut off Glynda as she pointed to Ruby.
"I know what sex is!" shouted Ruby in offense.
"Seriously Jaune, I can't believe he'd leave his porn out in the open like that. At least hide it better," scolded Saffron.
"He's dead!" shouted Blake.
"Where did you get this?!" demanded Jaune with a face of pure shock on his face.
"In mommy's closet," said Savannah innocently.
"Eh?!" gasped Blake.
"Oh… so it's not my brother's?" asked Saffron.
"I was going to hide there when I bumped my toe on a box. It was filled with all kinds wrestling magazines! There's even a book about ninjas!"
"Nope. Definitely Blake's stash," snorted Yang.
Blake sputtered.
"That poor girl. That book can seriously lower one's intelligence," said Ilia.
"It has a great plot!" defended Blake.
"Does it have great ass?" asked Coco.
"Yea – I mean, I… Shut up!" stammered out Blake.
"Isn't it the guy's stash that usually gets found in this situation?" asked Qrow.
"Normally," agreed Ozpin.
Glynda and Ironwood looked at Ozpin in a questioning manner.
"Not to me…" added Ozpin.
Jaune's face went red in pure embarrassment, and a bit of anger.
"Daddy, why are you all red? Are you mad at me for not playing the game?" asked Savannah with a little bit of worry in her voice.
"Huh…?" asked Jaune as he turned to his daughter, "Ah… No, of course not, Sweetie. I'm just surprised you found these… wrestling magazines, heh-heh. I was sure your mother put her stuff… somewhere else. Maybe somewhere more secure."
Jaune's eye twitched a little as he said the last part.
Blake's ears drooped, and her face was red with embarrassment.
"Oh come on, Blake. It's not so bad," reassured Sun, "Lots of guys leave it out on accident. It's how I found my dad's stuff, and look at me. I turned out okay, if I do say so myself."
"…I am not going to respond to that," muttered Blake.
"So you're not mad?" asked Savannah.
"Of course not," reassured Jaune, "You're not in trouble. Just promise me that if you find any more… err, wrestling magazines, don't look at them. Tell me, or mommy, right away. Got it?"
"Are they bad?" asked Savannah curiously.
Jaune instantly looked uncomfortable.
"I am so glad I never had this conversation," said Ghira.
"Same here," said Tai.
"N-No… It's just… Um… Something only mommies, and daddies do…" stammered out Jaune.
"Don't forget mommies and mommies," threw in Saffron.
"Or… You know, the other way too," said Velvet.
"Oh Velvet. You can say two guys can fuck too, you know," said Coco.
"I'm trying not to increase Blake's embarrassment," said Velvet who gestured at the cat faunus.
Said cat faunus was busy hiding her face in her hands.
"It'll all be over soon… It'll all be over soon…" muttered Blake.
"Only mommies, and daddies…?" asked Savannah with a confused expression.
"Yeah," said Jaune, pleased his daughter seemed to be following.
At least, he hoped she followed.
"Does that include grandma Kali, and grandpa Ghira?" asked Savannah suddenly.
Jaune went still again, and his face went pale.
"…Kali, and Ghira?" asked Jaune.
"Eh…?" gasped Kali and Ghira.
Blake's cat ears definitely heard, and she looked up at the screen with a horrified expression.
"They were wresting in the kitchen last week!" answered Savannah, as though she figured out the problem on her homework assignment.
"Last week…?" asked Jaune.
"Uh-huh!" nodded Savannah, "Last week, when grandma and grandpa were babysitting me, I had to go potty. But when I went to the bathroom, I heard noises. I went downstairs, and saw grandma leaning on the counter, and grandpa hugging her from behind just like in the picture."
"…Oh no," whined Blake.
"…Oh no," groaned Ghira.
"Oh my…" tittered Kali, then she saw her husband and daughter, "I mean, oh no…"
The other two Belladonna's sighed.
"I asked them if they were okay, and they got scared," said Savannah, "Grandpa said they were sparring, and they said not to worry. I said 'okay,' and left them alone to spar, just like and mommy told me to do when you guys spar."
'Not that kind of sparring…' thought Jaune.
"Ooh, Ghira, you naughty boy" said Kali with a bashful smile.
"Dad, how could you!" cried out Blake.
Ghira groaned.
"That is very wise, though I don't get why you would spar in a kitchen" stated Penny.
"Cause it's hot," said Nora.
"Nora, don't engage in this kind of conversation," said Ren.
"I suppose sparring would increase one's internal body temperature. But given the combat prowess of faunus, it is usually advisable to spar outdoors, or a designated training-" continued Penny, but Blake snapped.
"Shut up!" yelled Blake.
Everyone turned to stare at Blake.
"Sorry, Penny. It's just… I need to process this," sighed Blake apologetically.
"Does that include processing your choice in literature?" questioned Weiss.
"…Be quiet, Weiss," said Blake.
"Did I say something wrong?" Penny asked Ruby.
"Penny, they aren't talking about sparring. In this context, Savannah confused actual sparring with… sexy stuff," whispered Ruby.
"Sexy stuff…?' Oh, I see," said Penny.
Ruby and everyone sighed in relief. It was over-
"Still, why is everyone tiptoeing around the subject of sexuality? I was under the impression that since sexual intercourse is a natural function known to many adults," said Penny.
Ruby went as red as Blake while Ironwood, and Winter groaned in embarrassment.
"Where are you Doctor Polendina? I need you here," muttered Ironwood.
Jaune suddenly realized something, and almost gagged.
"Daddy?" asked Savannah, concerned.
"Blake, and I made dinner that night…" shuddered Jaune, "We ate food from the kitchen that night."
"Gross!" groaned everyone.
Ghira coughed uncomfortable, and Kali did a great impression of how Blake was currently feeling.
"Daddy, are you okay? You're talking to yourself," asked Savannah, who then put one of her little hands on his forehead.
Jaune gently took his daughter's hand off of his head, and stood up.
"I'm fine… Say, Savannah, your mother comes home from her mission tomorrow, and I need to do groceries. Do you want to get some ice cream?" asked Jaune with a beatific smile.
"Yeah!" nodded Savannah with a sparkle in her eyes.
"Right… So, show me where exactly you found mommy's wrestling books, then you can get dressed," said Jaune with a bright smile on his face.
"Yippee!" said Savannah who then ran out of the room.
After a moment, Jaune looked at the magazine again. He blushed at the same scene, and turned the page… then another…
"Well… It could have been worse. At least this one of Blake's softcore magazines…" said Jaune.
"So, you have categories?" asked Yang.
"Quiet!" snapped Blake.
THE NEXT DAY…
Blake opened the door to the house quietly, and closed it just as silently. The only sound she gave was that of her long hair shifting the air around her head. She didn't bother to turn on any lights, her night vision was good enough.
She wore dark pants, a black sleeveless top with a crisscross pattern just above her breasts, a long, white trench coat, and no bow.
"You really should ditch the bow," said Yang.
"Yeah. Looking at this, and you now, the bow looks weird," added Ilia.
"Does it really look that weird?" asked Blake.
"Yep!" said Sun.
"I agree," added Ghira.
"Very. I mean could you imagine me wearing a bow?" asked Kali.
"No… I see you point…" said Blake.
…
"So, are you going to take it off?" asked Ruby.
"Not now…"
Ruby grumbled, wanting to see kitty ears again.
She moved to the living room, and put Gambol Shroud down, on the weapon's stand next to Crocea Mors' stand. She took off her coat, and put it on the couch before she moved to the kitchen.
"Ugh… I hate week-long missions," grumbled Blake.
"Mm-hmm…" hummed Tai, Qrow, Raven, Ozpin, Winter, and Glynda in agreement.
She sniffed, and noticed the strong smell of cleaning chemicals, but she figured it was just the weekend routine. Moving on, she opened the freezer, grabbed a pint of ice cream, and leaned against the countertop.
"I'm sitting where mom and dad were…" Blake shuddered.
"And your stories have nothing like that in their pages, hmm?" asked Kali.
"It's a book! This is reality… kind of," said Blake.
"Don't remind me, please," said Ghira, still embarrassed by Savannah's statement.
"Some ice cream, and two days of family time are just what I need."
She got a spoon, opened the carton, and dug in all on autopilot.
Nom, nom… nom…
Immediately, her eyes widened, and she spat the ice cream into the sink.
"What the hell?" asked Blake.
"What the hell?!" yelped Blake.
Whatever fatigue she had left over from work was immediately gone. Her second wind focused her vision as she took an actual look at the label of the treat she just put in her mouth.
Pumpkin Pete's Diet Ice Cream… Made With 100% Soymilk!
"Ugh! Soymilk?!" gagged Blake.
"They still make that ice cream?" asked Saffron.
"It's not that bad, actually," said Terra, "I've had a few pints, and my doctor's not complaining.
"Even so…" said Blake.
"Eww… They make milk out of beans?" asked Ruby.
"It's not that bad," said Emerald.
"You drink that shit?" asked Mercury.
"It's healthy," said Emerald with a flat look, "Plus, I'm lactose intolerant."
"Bean milk… Sick and wrong, I say!" declared Ruby.
"You had almond milk the other day," pointed out Weiss.
"Almonds are fine! Not beans!" countered Ruby.
"Whatever," muttered Weiss.
Blake crushed the lid of the ice cream, especially the part of the carton where the iconic bunny smiled obnoxiously.
"Ugh… Jaune!" growled Blake, "He knows I hate Pumpkin Pete Ice Cream. And seriously, 'diet?' What's he trying to say?"
"Yeah… What is he trying to say," growled Blake.
"Knowing Jaune, he's probably trying to get back at you," said Saffron.
Ren spoke up.
"His conversation about… wrestling was an unexpected-"
"And unwelcome," added Pyrrha.
"…Conversation," finished Ren.
"Still hot though," threw in Nora.
"Nora!" scolded Ren, and Pyrrha.
Blake had tried the ice cream once, but only because her doctor told her to cut back on the dairy. However, after trying, she threw it out, found an acceptable non-dairy ice cream, and forbade Jaune from ever buying it in the groceries from that day forward. She put the carton and spoon down on the counter, and marched with purpose.
"He should know better…" muttered Blake as she made her way up the stairs.
She did slow down when walking past Savannah's room, so as not to wake her, but the moment she reached her and Jaune's bedroom, and strode in and closed the door shut.
"Jaune…" growled Blake.
"Oh, hi honey!" said Jaune with a smile on his face, "Wow, it must have been a stressful mission if you finished a pint already."
"Creepy smile," said Tai Yang, who shuddered at the memory of an angry Summer Rose smiling similarly.
"Ooh, Jaune picked that up from Lavender," said Saffron.
"Your crazy sister?" said Terra.
"She's not crazy," scolded Saffron.
"You…" began Blake, who then stared for a moment, "Why are you smiling?"
"Well, since you're asking," said Jaune, who now smiled a little more widely, "I had a rather interesting conversation with our daughter the other day."
"About…?" asked Blake, a little concerned at her husband's behavior.
"We were playing hide and seek when…" Jaune pulled open the nightstand drawer on his side of the bed, "…she found your wrestling magazines."
"My wha – Eeek!" gasped Blake in shock at the cover.
Rustler Magazine – Interracial Indecency Vol. 4
The audience tilted their heads as the rest of the cover below the title was covered in blurry mosaic.
"The cover's censored…" shuddered Weiss.
"This one is a lot more hardcore than the other one," said Archie.
Blake got the magazines in Jaune's hands, and looked through the material she feared her daughter witnessed.
Mistral Mistresses Vol. 7
The cover was censored, but Pyrrha, and Cinder blushed at the title.
"I think I can make out a position on that one," said Mercury with a squint.
"Gross! We don't need a play-by-play," groaned Emerald.
Faunus Firefighters
This one wasn't censored. It had a hunky looking man with a horse tail. His back faced the reader as he gave a sultry smile, and undid the protective coat of the Atlesian Fire Department.
Winter gulped at the sight as discreetly tugged the collar of her shirt.
Weiss licked her lips a little, and wondered if there were firefighters in Atlas that actually looked like that.
Ninjas of Love Vol. 5
"There's a fifth volume?" gasped Blake, a little excitedly.
"Autographed inside the cover, too," pointed out Archie.
"REALLY?!" squealed Blake excitedly.
"Um, priorities, partner," pointed out Yang disapprovingly.
Blake's face matched Pyrrha's hair.
"S-Savannah… found this? I thought I hid it well," shuddered Blake in shock.
"That's your reaction?" asked Ilia in a flat voice.
Blake groaned.
"Well, look on the bright side," chimed Sun.
"What bright side?" asked Blake grumpily.
Sun opened his mouth, but a thoughtful look came on his face.
"Eh… Never mind. Not sure the story of finding Scarlet's porn is going to help in this situation," said Sun.
Blake groaned again.
"Apparently not…" sighed Jaune, who finally dropped the smile, "Not only did I find a stash, the stash was somewhere our daughter could easily access. Do you have any idea how awkward it was trying to explain that this was 'grownup' wrestling."
"That's what you told her?" gasped Blake.
"It was better than giving her the talk at the age of five! And don't get mad at me! I'm not the one who violated the agreement, and did a piss-poor job hiding it. An empty box for copy paper next to your shoe rack in the closet? Seriously? You couldn't come up with a better hiding spot?"
"Where would you have hidden your stash?" growled Blake.
"In the attic, where I told Savannah the boogie man lives," said Jaune.
Blake gave Jaune a flat stare.
"No way," chuckled Saffron, "That's what mom, and dad told us."
"Guess they gave Jaune some interesting advice," said Ghira.
"Did you have to tell her that?" asked Blake.
"My mom told me that, and I never knew it my parents had a stash until Saffron showed me one of the magazines," said Jaune.
Blake pinched the bridge of her nose.
"Oh gods… My poor daughter," said Blake, "It's a good thing my mom's not here. I'd never hear the end of it."
"No, you wouldn't," said Kali.
"Mom!" objected Blake.
"Hypothetically, Blake. If this happened in real life. You know that's what I meant," chuckled Kali.
"Right…" said Blake.
"Ugh… don't mention your mom, please," groaned Jaune.
"Don't tell me she was here when it happened," gasped Blake.
"No…"
Blake would have sighed in relief if Jaune hadn't trailed off.
"But according to Savannah, your mom and dad were 'wrestling' in the kitchen last week when we had them over for dinner," shuddered Jaune.
Blake suddenly felt very sick.
"W-Where, exactly…?" gasped Blake.
"Doesn't matter. I bleached the table, and counter tops. I mopped the floor twice, and then sprayed disinfectant all over," said Jaune.
"Rude!" yelped Kali.
Ghira sighed.
"That explains the smell," said Blake.
"And the ice cream," said Jaune blandly.
The two stared at each other for a moment.
"…Pfft, heh-hahahaha," chuckled Blake.
Jaune looked at her, a little annoyed.
"I'm sorry, it's just, well, I feared something like this would happen. I just thought… it'd be you that did it, not me," chuckled Blake.
"Oh, gee, thanks for having faith in me… It's not funny, Blake" grumbled Jaune as he pinched the bridge of his nose.
"You're right. I'm sorry, Jaune. If it makes you feel better, I'll talk to Savannah in the morning," said Blake.
"Why do you have to talk to her?" asked Jaune.
"Because when you're flustered, your ability to explain things is about as good as Ruby when she first started at Beacon," said Blake.
"Ruby? I don't add sound effects," objected Jaune.
"I don't add sound effects!" objected Ruby.
"Yeah you do!" said Nora, "I got some of my best ones from you. Right Ren?"
"…They are colorful," mused Ren.
"What? But…" stammered Ruby.
"You do sometimes," said Blake.
Jaune looked a little sheepish, but still turned his head in denial. That was when Blake leaned in, and made her move.
She cupped his cheek, and turned him toward her before she got on her toes.
Warm lips pressed against hers as she pulled him down a little. It lasted for a few moments, but Jaune began to relax as she pulled away.
"I'm sorry, Jaune. I didn't mean to put you in that situation, unintentional as it was. Can you forgive me?" asked Blake.
"…I suppose," said Jaune softly.
"Aww, they made up!" swooned Saffron.
"Well, he definitely picked that up from his sisters," remarked Terra.
"Picked what up?" asked Saffron.
"The whole 'I forgive you, but I'll pretend it's hard to' act," said Terra.
"Oh please. You love it when I do that," said Saffron.
Terra rolled her eyes with a smile.
Blake smiled, but that was when she felt strong hands upon her shoulders.
"…On one condition," said Jaune.
"Condition?" asked Blake, confused.
Blake blinked, and she tensed a little.
"Jaune?"
Suddenly, Jaune held her tight, and she felt one of the hands go low.
"J-Jaune – Mmph!"
Everyone stared.
"W-What?" choked Blake.
Jaune kissed her into silence. As he managed to part her mouth, he slid his tongue in while his hand massaged her ass. And then…
SPANK
"Mmm!" squealed Blake in surprise.
Cinder, Raven and Emerald tilted their heads.
Blake, Pyrrha, Yang, and Velvet's breath quickened.
Sun and Ilia looked jealous while Kali and Ghira clapped and scowled respectively.
Everyone else blushed profusely, though Qrow cheered a "Not bad" at the screen.
"Look at that tongue move…" said Penny.
"Her's, or his?" gulped Coco.
"Let her breathe, man" said Ironwood.
"I guess we can stop feeling embarrassed about almost having sex here," said Saffron, who covered her eyes.
"I guess so…" said Terra, "Although, we might be just as embarrassed watching your brother getting freaky."
"Ugh…" groaned Saffron.
SPANK, SPANK…
It didn't take long for Blake to wobble her knees. However just as quickly as it started, it ended when Jaune turned, and with Blake still in his arms, pushed her onto the bed.
"I missed that sound… The sound of that Bellabooty…" said Jaune.
"Bella-what?!" shrieked Blake, "Since when does my ass have its own title?"
"Is this the first time you heard that?" asked Mercury, "All guys at the school call it that."
"WHAT?!"
"Is that true Ren? Blake's butt has its own nickname?" asked Nora.
All eyes fell on Ren, who immediately began to hate the situation.
"Um… references have been made in the locker rooms," said Ren.
"I want names!" demanded Blake with vengeance in her eyes.
"This viewing is going to stop soon, right?" asked Glynda with a flush on her face.
"I'm try to…" said Archie, who had his hand extended toward the stop button on the VCR.
Blake gasped in surprise, and as he tried to catch her breath, her keen ears heard the bedroom door lock.
"You know Blake… looking at those magazines, I realized something. Between our rotating work periods, and looking after Savannah, we haven't done it in a while, have we?" said Jaune casually.
"Talk about not getting any," said Amber.
"Maybe that's why she put her filth stash somewhere easy to find," said Ruby.
"Ruby, don't call it that!" yelped Weiss.
"But it was! That katana joke wasn't even funny!" said Ruby.
"Wait her books have katana jokes? How do you know?!" demanded Yang.
"Um… I kinda sorta saw the book on Blake's bed, and got curious," said Ruby with a blush.
Blake was blushing uncontrollably.
"Seriously, Blake? Kids finding your porn even in the present?" demanded Yang.
"Kid?!" squawked Ruby.
"I forgot to put it back because of your dumb dog!" shot back Blake.
"Don't blame Zwei for your forgetfulness," scolded Weiss.
"W-We… haven't had the time," began Blake, still dazed from the impromptu make out session.
"I will forgive you, but before I do, I need to punish you," said Jaune huskily.
"P-Punish?" sighed Blake.
"P-Punish?!" shuddered Blake with a blush on her face, "You mean this isn't punishment enough?"
"That's right. Those magazines gave me some pretty interesting ideas," said Jaune as he started to climb onto the bed.
"W-Wait, Savannah's in the next room!" objected Blake.
"…Yeah, about that, she's actually at my parents' house," said Jaune.
"Eh?" gasped Blake.
"I needed a sitter," said Jaune before he kissed her lips, "Can't risk our daughter catching us wrestling after all."
"So, I guess mom and dad live in Vale now," said Saffron.
"That's your take away?" asked Terra, "Not the fact that we're watching your brother get freaky?"
"Can't you shut it down faster Archie?" stammered out Blake.
"It's not responding. Please calm down everyone. If is screw this up, the entire room can explode," urged Archie.
Everyone blinked at Archie.
"Really?" asked Ghira.
"Since the future is always in flux, the energies in the universe case that the VCR reads are a little unstable," said Archie.
"You were able to stop Yang's future viewing fairly easily if I recall," growled Blake in disbelief.
"That's because it wasn't frizzled out from watching two large segments of one universe back to back," explained the Archivist, "Now, would you let me concentrate? I'm almost there."
"Don't you… Oh, yes… I mean, don't you… have a… a mission to prep for?" asked Blake in between Jaune's kisses.
"I got the association to find someone," said Jaune.
"W-Wait, Jaune. A-At least let me shower… f-first," said Blake.
She tried to back away, but Jaune was faster. Soon, he was looking down from atop, and he leaned down, and licked her neck.
"I'll groom you," he said, "Sweat, and dirt never stopped me before."
Blake blinked owlishly.
Yang, Pyrrha and Velvet whined in jealousy.
Kali beamed, as though her daughter won the lottery again.
Sun, and Ilia gulped in anticipation.
Ghira looked at Jaune with murderous eyes.
"Lucky…" said Amber with a nod of approval from Raven.
"Grooming the kitten; ooh, that sounds so hot," said Nora.
"Nora, you're making Blake even more uncomfortable," scolded Ren.
"T-That's racist!" retorted Blake weakly.
Jaune moved further, and kissed and licked her nearest ear while a hand glided over her top and grasped her breast.
"Nyahh!" meowed Blake excitedly.
Pyrrha, Velvet, and Yang all blushed at the action, Ghira and Blake's left eye twitched, and everyone, even Glynda and Winter, tilted their heads in curiosity over what Jaune was doing.
"Your potential future self doesn't seem to mind," said Nora in response.
The screen went black suddenly.
Thump!
Blake promptly fainted.
"Blake, whoa!" yelped Yang as she went to her partner's side.
"She didn't hit her head, did she?" asked Kali with worry.
"Guess it was too much for her," said Tai.
"No, really?" retorted Ghira, "My little girl. She must be so embarrassed."
"Sorry," apologized Archie, "Still, I'm surprised you're shocked by this. Jaune, and Blake actually have one of the tamest sex lives compared to the stuff I've archived."
"Don't need to know!" growled Ghira, who went to her daughter's side
"That's tame?" gasped Weiss as she looked to Archie.
"…So, who has the raunchiest?" asked Coco.
"Will we see it?" asked Velvet, "…You know, so we have a bit of warning, you know."
"Smooth," said Terra.
"Well, at least we'll see more. Shame we probably won't be getting to the good parts," grumbled Mercury.
"A relief, if you ask me," said Emerald, "I swear, if you tried to get your rocks off in the same bubble as us…"
"Says the girl who was panting. You were this close to wetting yourself," grumbled Mercury.
"What did you say, perv?" snapped Emerald.
"Enough!" growled Cinder, who despite her tone was also rather hot and bothered.
Meanwhile, Blake's teammates were still trying to wake her up when Raven approached.
"For fuck's sake, use this," said Raven.
Ruby looked up, and caught an object that was tossed in their direction.
"Is this sand?" asked Ruby who looked at a container with a cap.
"Smelling salt. Put it underneath her nose. It should do just the trick to wake her up," said Raven.
Ruby looked at it skeptically, but saw that Qrow nodded in confirmation. Ruby looked at the object, and opened it up. She did as Raven said, and sure enough Blake awoke.
"Ugh…" she groaned.
"Hey, girl, are you okay?" asked Yang.
"Does your head hurt, dear?" asked Kali.
"Yang, mom… I had the strangest dream," said Blake groggily.
"Oh? What about?" asked Kali.
"I dreamt we were in this library filled with nothing but movies about Jaune… But there was this one about me and Jaune having sex…"
"Yeah… about that," said Yang, trying not laugh.
Blake looked around, and saw Archie.
"Archie…?" gasped Blake, "You mean, it was all real?"
"Sorry, I tried to stop it sooner," apologized Archie sheepishly.
Blake fainted again
Ghira clenched a fist.
"Jaune Arc… You are dead!" declared Ghira.
Meanwhile…
Atop the roof of Beacon Academy, Jaune tensed, and shivered.
Like a rabbit that heard a sudden noise, he looked around for the first sign of danger, ready to flee.
"What's this feeling…?" he said with a shiver.
Thank goodness for the M rating. Was it worth the wait? It felt like I threw in everything, including the the kitchen sink. Let me know what you guys think.
