This is IBurn! Alright, introduction done.
I did this without drafting - or even think of a storyline beforehand. I just let my imagination runs wild, so things might get crazy. Or gay. Here I go.

Dear RWBY: Yang's New Year Vlog
Start.
"I often sit alone on the roof during cold nights, thinking about life." A voice was heard on a black screen as the vlog started. The sound of wind mixed with some faint sound of metals clashing was heard in the background. Then the clouds began to clear - and that was when the moon showed up, brightening the entire screen as a man with black and grey themed shirt slowly appeared. He was holding an old metal flask with his left hand; the breeze brushed through his messy black hair, making him look like a concept art painting from a certain animated show.
"What makes us...human?" The voice continued. Judging from the angle of the camera, the one holding it must be filming her uncle Qrow Branwen in secret, "Ah, what a beautiful metal flask. The shiny surface made of titanium and wood is so smooth to the touch. And...damn, can't think of anything to say."
-beep-
"Hello guys!" Yang Xiao Long grinned as the scroll recorded her. She was sitting on Blake's bed for some reason, and she was wearing a casual golden tank-top with cargo pants. After clearing her throat, the girl continued, "Welcome to Yang's secon- wait, was it...the third?"
-beep-
"Welcome to another Yang's vlog!" The blonde changed her sentence, "It's already a few days past New Year, and everyone else doesn't seemed to be too fond of shooting vlogs to celebrate the occasion. So, as the big sister plus creative director of the team, I have volunteered to make one!"
Sounds of a crowd cheering and clapping their hands was heard immediately after; she also added some sparkling effect in the video.
"So, I looked for IBurn to...draw some inspirations from her, but sadly she was so obsessed with Misaka Mikoto-"
"Hey." A familiar machine-like voice interrupted the blonde.
"Oh, didn't see you there!" Yang scratched her head while faking a nervous laugh.
"I was here the whole time." The screen zoomed into a mini speaker located on Blake's pillow.
"Pardon~"
"I'm just here because none of her teammates wants to shoot a video with her. Including the princess."
"Hey!" The blonde exclaimed, "She's occupied alright."
"I know."
"Anyway, I was hoping that she would give me some ideas on a New Year's Vlog, but sadly…"
"I didn't have any. But now - I have!"
"And that is~?"
"Dubbing."
-beep-
The screen resumed to showing Qrow sitting on the roof of Beacon Dorm. And a certain dragon was hiding behind a wall while secretly voicing over her uncle depending on his actions.
"You suck at this." The machine-like voice, which belonged to Team RWBY's beloved sponsor, was heard clearly despite Yang not bringing a speaker with her. She was wearing an earphone to communicate with IBurn; the voice was recorded and edited into the video afterwards.
"Like you're any better." The blonde retorted, "You must have gotten this 'voicing-over...or dubbing and stalking someone' idea from Daily Lives of Highschool B*ys right?"
"Please remember to bleep the name. And yes, when the trio was dubbing some highschool girls. Man that was...for me at least, one of the most hilarious scenes of that entire anime. And...no, we're not stalking."
"Hey look, he's standing up!" Yang ignored the sponsor.
"Well think of something to say!"
"W-What a pain in the ass!" The blonde exclaimed, dubbing her uncle, "Literally!"
The sound of IBurn face-palming could be heard.
"I told Ozpin that I need a freaking break, but he wouldn't give me some." Yang continued as her uncle was stretching after putting his trademark flask back to his pocket, "How do I continue to do my job if I'm suffering from...hemorrhoids? Look how I'm moving, do I look like I'm in the condition to slay monsters?"
The man then pulled out his scroll which was ringing from his front pocket and answered it. His voice was barely audible, but it sounded like he was upset as he talked; his body language indicated so as well.
"How dare you give me that expired Kimchi? Look at what you've done to my anus you horrible jellyfish. It felt like Edward Scissorh*nd stuffed his fingers inside me. And now Ozpin won't let me take the entire week off! It's all on you pal!"
"You have...quite the imagination there."
"Shush, mortal, bow before the might birdman." Yang continued, "I am not forgiving you unless if you buy me that limited edition figure of Matsuura Kanan's wet suit version. And I, want, two!"
Qrow then hung up on the other person. After putting back his scroll, he let out a heavy sigh and scratched his head.
"Oh boy, I totally blew it up. I should have requested the dakimakura of a naked Weis- I mean, whoever my love interest is, which seems unlikely to be Winter Schnee even though people keep shipping us. And for Dust's sake please don't pair me up with Oscar."
"The more you talk, the more your inner thoughts and desires come out."
"Are we playing the bokke and tsukkomi here?" Yang raised an eyebrow.
Before IBurn could reply, a flash of light blinded them - a crow then appeared out of nowhere and flew away into the city.
"Aw, he's gone. What should we do?"
"Dub someone else?"
"Maybe I'll save that for another time."
"Wise move. We don't even know if the readers will like this."
"Yeah. Now I better go back and start editing, because this...will take a while."
"Not having any plans for new year?"
"That's a good question. Let's go and ask everyone what their New Year's resolutions are!"
-camera cut-
A line appeared in the middle of the black screen: There will be a lot of short camera cuts. You have been warned!
-camera cut-
"To make more friends, I think...and to upgrade Crescent Rose. And I also want to be stronger!"
"Hm? I don't make things like that. Wha- what do you mean? Fine. I do. But I have no obligation to reveal i- wait, Xiao Long, what are you doi- kya!"
"I want to stop running away…either from a problem or a difficult situation. It isn't going to be easy, but I'll try."
"Um...I guess...to be more honest with myself? I used to convince myself that I'm never going to become his girlfriend...but I did and...he confessed to me first. So I want to believe in myself more. I had a happy blessed year with my friends, and I'm hoping the next year would be even better."
"Mooooooore paaaanckeeees!"
"I am determined to become a stronger person. I know I didn't do much as a leader, and yet my teammates still place so much faith in me. I want to answer them, and I want to have their backs."
"Even mooooooore paaaancaaaakeeees!"
"I do not have any resolutions for the next year. However, I'm hoping that I am able to assist anyone who needs help with their problems."
"Paaaancakees!"
"But before that, I need to solve this problem first."
"New year's resolution? I just need the students to behave and stop trying to destroy Beacon Academy. I may be able to fix everything with a wave, but there is a lot behind that wave."
"I just need a break. Oz's put me in so many missions I barely have time to sleep, let alone playing video games and enjoying myself. Ah who am I kidding, alcohol is my best friend."
"Hm? New Year's resolutions? Why the sudden question hot stuff? Vlog? I see...well, I certainly want more fashionable combat gears."
"..."
"..."
"Sorry, they're really quiet, so… ah, mine? I want to take a lot more photographs! And if possible...I want to be braver to stand up for myself…"
"New Year's resolution? I guess that would be to stop a certain someone and relieve the curse bestowed upon her. I have seen too many horrible things."
"Ho ho! A student of mine asking about the resolutions of a man like me. I appreciate your kindness, but I need not for them, for I am the perfect- Gah, my heart!"
"New's Year's resolutions? Very well! ThatwouldbetotalkslightlyslowerbecauseIalwaysreceivecomplainsaboutmetalkingtoofast! What? You didn't catch that? Ionlyhadtwocupsofcoffeetodaytoslowmytalking! Wasting, myeffort!"
"I need to...defeat...Red! But where am I?!"
"Insert sign here for mute girl."
"My evil plans!"
"I hate people."
"My New Year's resolution is to never skip leg days! Just kidding bro, I haven't had leg days for a while now. In fact, it's more than a while. Not having to do leg workouts is so enjoyable that I'm getting a kick out of it! Hahahaha!
"See, this is why I hate people."
-beep-
"That was a lot of people you interviewed."
"It's Yang's vlog baby! So I guess we'll end here?"
"Sure thing. I'll see you some other time then. Happy New Year everyone!"
"Happy New Year everyone!"
-beep-
"You thought this was over? But it was us, Team RWBY!" Team RWBY said in unison as they threw up their hands - Weiss included.
"We felt bad for ditching Yang." The Faunus said in her usual monotone, "So we film this part before the editing."
"I'm still mad about what Yang did to me during the New Year's resolution interview." The heiress crossed her arms, then blushed as she spoke, "But...well...it's a new year and last year had been rather enjoyable. So...I'll say it just once. I love you, brute."
"I love you too Blake!" Not wanting to lose, the team leader raised her hand immediately.
"Love you too Rubes."
Silence.
Everyone simultaneously turned to the dragon who was frozen there, as if a certain ice queen had casted her magic on her. Well, technically, she did; - and it was called the magic of love (gay).
"We Team RWBY wishes everyone a Happy New Year, and we would also like to thank everyone who supported our series!" Ruby Rose cheered.
"Happy New Year." Her lover continued.
"...I love you too, Weiss."
End.

Not sorry for the crazy. And the gay. And the shamelessness.
But I do feel bad for being three days late! So...have fun figuring out who spoke at the intense camera cut part.
Happy New Year everyone, and I wish we all to succeed!
