Disclaimer: I do not own RWBY.
AN: Hey all. Aloehisja here with another funny chapter. The other stories are taking a bit of a back seat for now since my wtriting is turning more comedic than serious at the moment. I am jotting down some things though to make them more exciting and not so predictable like all other fanfics we've read. Once I get these comedy ideas out, it's back to the serious stuff.
That's enough on that, so let's get to the story.
Episode 3: Chibi-ventures
ZIP
"Thanks again for helping me with today's laundry Ruby." Nora smiled as she and the leader of team RWBY were folding the dry clothes.
"No problem." The little leader smiled, smushing her face into the still warm clothes and sheets. "I just enjoy the feeling of warm clothes after coming out of the dryer~."
"Me too!" The ginger agreed, joining Ruby in the mountain of warm clothe. "It's like no other feeling compares."
After enjoying the warm sensation with the smell of freshly cleaned laundry, the two got back to folding. After the sheets were done, it was time to get to the clothes. Holding up Jaune's brown vest and chaps, Nora got a great idea into her head.
"Ruby, look." Nora called to her laundry buddy who was folding Weiss' combat skirt.
Looking up from her folding, Ruby saw Nora decked out in Jaune's clothes. They were a little loose, but she just folded them to fit her.
"It's high noon." The ginger said in a deep cowboy accent, getting a laugh out of her. "This town here ain't big enough for the two of us."
Seeing a rare opportunity, Ruby zipped into the bathroom to change her clothes too. After a minute, the little reaper walked out in her older sister's usual combat clothes. She even had the little tuft of hair that stuck out of Yang's head like an antenna.
"Now just Yang on for a second there." She punned in her best Yang act. "You don't wanna hurt me now, do ya?"
Grinning at their little play, the two turned to the stacks of clothes on the table and grinned at the endless possibilities.
Zip!
"Blah, blah, dust. Blah blah Schnee. Something, something, you dolt." Ruby acted out Weiss while in her clothes with a short side-ponytail.
"I'm sorry!" Nora said in Pyrrha's clothes in her best mature voice. "Hello Jaune. Will you please come with me to Vale?"
Zip!
"I am a cat ninja. Hwachaaaa!" Ruby said while making kung fu poses while wearing Blake's clothes along with her bow.
"You think your ninja can outninja my ninja?" Nora challenged while making her own poses in Ren's clothes. She even styled her bangs to closely resemble her partner's. "Nin-nin."
Zip!Zip!Zip!Zip!Zip!Zip!Zip!Zip!Zip!Zip!Zip!Zip!ZIP!
"Hold on!" Ruby shouted as their playing got out of control. "…Something isn't right here."
"What do you mean?" Nora asked, not feeling anything wrong.
Ruby was now wearing Ren's shirt with Jaune's chaps while Nora was wearing Weiss' clothes while having Blake's pants underneath. If Ruby was to lift up the chaps, they'd notice she had Pyrrha's stockings on and Nora had Yang's yellow top under Weiss' clothes.
"Hm." Ruby hummed, not sure what it was before going back to folding. "I don't know. Must be my imagination."
Gary Stew
"Alright people, lets get this thing rolling." Ruby called to her actors as they assembled to the stage.
After her story of Little Red Riding Hood was completely demolished by her team, Ruby sought out other people who could fit better to her new script. This time, she excluded Yang out of the play since she was the biggest factor on ruining things. Thanks to the deep bond forged with team JNPR and a few other friends, she was able to get some better actors and a great stagehand to help Zwei.
"Say, Ruby?" Jaune walked up to her with script in hand. "I just finished reading this script and-"
"There's my big star!" Ruby interrupted, pulling Jaune over to stand in a perfect spot. "Just read your lines and remember to put feelings into them, okay? Okay."
Sighing, Jaune gave up since Ruby was blinded by her own creative power. This is what he gets for agreeing quickly before seeing the full story.
"And… Action!" Ruby clapped for Jaune to start.
"No one can ever understand my pain!" Jaune acted while pantomiming dramatically. "This power I hold is a curse upon my existence. I …am a being of solitude!"
"Let me be the one to understand you!" Pyrrha walked in, playing her part as the girl who wishes to open the lonely main character's heart. "Give me the chance to show you, you don't have to do this alone."
"I can understand your sorrows." Blake came in with a monotone voice. It's not that it was part of the character, more of she wasn't into the idea. "Let us both be beings of solitude together."
"None of you understand." JNPR's leader turned away from them dramatically. "I cannot love for this is the price I pay for power!"
"Ha-ha!" Sun jumped out while wearing a handlebar moustache with Penny in his arms as a hostage. "I have come to destroy you all! And with my power, you shall fall before me! Do not stop me, or this girl who loves you shall die!"
As Pyrrha and Blake halfheartedly acted like scared women, Jaune puffed out his chest and stood in front of Sun.
"I think not villain!" He said still dramatically while pulling Penny away. "Fall before my power! Hya!"
Faking a ki blast mostly seen in anime, Sun acted as if he was hit by a giant blue beam.
"Nooo!" The monkey faunus fell down on his knees while coughinga bit. "I am defeated!"
"You have done it." Blake said still in monotone. "You are not a monster. You are a hero. …And we all love you."
"…Okay, cut!" Jaune put the script down with the others shaking their heads. They were all turning to Ruby with disappointed looks. "Ruby this is ridiculous."
"I'll say." The little reaper huffed, getting on stage. "Blake's way out of character. She's supposed to be more emotionless than that."
Blake gawked at her leader. Just how emotionless was her own character supposed to be?! Shaking her head, she focused on the real problem.
"That's not the problem Ruby." She said with hands on her hips. "This story is horrible."
"What?!" The little leader gawked, not believing what she was hearing.
"I'm sorry Ruby, but it's true." Pyrrha agreed with Blake. "The lines are …erhm! A little cheesy."
"I'd say completely cheesy." Weiss interjected, walking on stage with her own copy of the script. "Almost sixty percent of the dialogue is in exclamation. That's not the only problem though. I read through it all, and all the female characters are nothing more than useless two-dimensional sex objects."
"But-" Ruby tried to defend.
"And the main character is a textbook Gary Stu." Jaune nodded with Weiss.
"He's not that-" Ruby tried to butt in.
"Ugh!" The heiress made an unladylike face. "He's more than textbook. 'I wish I was normal and didn't have these cursed powers. No one will love me.' There's nothing even cursed about his powers and he has three girls falling for him! He's just an emo Gary Stu."
By this point, the scriptwriter was fuming while turning a shade close to her hood.
"I vote we remake the script." Sun raised his hand, getting the other actors to join in. Looking to the other side, only Penny didn't raise her hand. "Penny, don't you want to redo the script?"
"Oh! Was raising my hand supposed to be confirmation?" Penny put a hand to her mouth, seeing she was supposed to raise her arm. Seeing Ruby's betrayed face, she explained herself. "I have never made a script before. This will be sensational!"
As the others walked out on her, Ruby could only stand and gawk as her vision was ruined by actors who had their own ideas. Hearing a throat clear behind her, the little reaper turned around to see Ren handing over his copy of her script.
"It needed suffering." He stated simply before walking off to join on the new script.
"And more explosions!" Nora skipped over to catch up with Ren.
Standing alone, Ruby's eye twitched from all the constructive criticism. Looking at the script in her hand, she tore it into millions of pieces in sheer frustration.
"Look at us. We have opinions. We think we can make it better." Ruby mocked while walking in the opposite direction. "La-di-da-di-da. …Everybody's a critic."
END
AN: And that's a wrap on that. Leave a comment if any of you would like to see what the actors had planned for the play. No Beacon Safari this time, but there were still some shenanigans and malarkey. This is Aloehisja hoping you enjoyed reading.
