This is the story of a girl who had so much hope and believed that she could save everyone and give everyone their happily ever after. But after learning the truth, will she still be able to believe and see the good in the world?
A story of Qrow Branwen's only daughter, Y/n Branwen.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sometimes it's good to believe even when it feels impossible, because without hope what else do we have?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's okay if you don't believe it's possible; I'll believe it for you. It's easier to believe in the impossible for others than for yourself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You are stuck with us now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I can't! You're all I've known! You're the only sure thing I have right now!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It doesn't matter what I want...It never mattered...

Grimmling (RWBY)
Selene, only living child of Salem, lived a sheltered life, until her only act of quiet rebellion threw her into the path of an embittered young Huntsman. His mere knowledge of Selene's existence risked not only her mother's wrath, but the lives of anyone Salem saw as a threat to her daughter's safety. Thrown into the middle of an ages-long civil war between two cursed immortals, they determine to not only survive, but to bring an end to it. But to do so, they will need allies of their own... from an abused child with a dangerous fire-based Semblance, to a Headmaster who had long since lost all hope and courage. From a group of conspiracy theorists, to a brave Huntress whose eyes represent a deadly threat to both Salem and Selene. From a bandit leader, to an entire race striving for justice and equality. Together, they will find that there is untapped strength in Remnant that wants no part of either side's goals, and is willing to carve their own path.
Remnant's Wolverine (Wolverine!Male Reader x RWBY) {Remastered}
(ALL ART THAT ARE IN THIS STORY ARE MADE BY ME) You are Y/N. That's the only truth you remember-the name they call you. Some whisper another title, one laced with fear and awe: The Wolverine. Unlike everyone else in Remnant, you are an anomaly. You wield no Aura to shield you, no natural barrier against the blows of your enemies. By all rights, you should be fragile... but you are not. You heal faster than any warrior alive, faster than those who should be untouchable. Beneath your skin lies a secret of cold steel-an unbreakable skeleton and claws that slice through anything. Where these powers came from, you do not know. Your past is a shattered mirror, its pieces scattered and lost. Seeking refuge from the endless bloodshed that haunts your life, you journey to Vale. For once, you hope for quiet. Instead, you find yourself standing before the legendary Headmaster of Beacon Academy-an invitation in his hand. He offers you a place among hunters-in-training, though you have never set foot in a combat school. Against your instincts, you accept. At Beacon, you encounter allies who defy your expectations and enemies who know more about you than you know yourself. Piece by piece, the truth of who you are-and what you were meant to become-begins to surface. But when the past finally catches up to you, will you be able to face it? Or will The Wolverine consume what's left of Y/N?Complete
Rwby volume 1: Weiss Schnee X Male Reader
Long ago, before borders carved the land into pieces, the world was whole. One kingdom. One people. And among them, there was a man-no, a legend. To his people, he was more than flesh and bone. They saw him as something divine, not because he claimed it, but because his heart was so pure, his purpose so unwavering. A warrior of light, driven not by glory but by the good of all. No one dared question the title that clung to him like armor. Not even the only man he'd ever call his equal-his best friend. The King of the World. Together, they weren't just rulers. They were guides, protectors... symbols of hope. Under their watch, humanity came close-so close-to achieving true peace. A peace that didn't feel like a dream, but a promise being kept. But, as with all stories born in light, darkness waits patiently in the wings. It came quietly at first, like a whisper behind the curtains. Then it roared. And when it did, it didn't just challenge the good in the world-it consumed it. Swallowed it whole, as if to prove that balance must always come at a cost. And just like that, the age of harmony ended. What remained was a curse. A wound stitched into the fabric of the world, waiting... hoping... that one day, someone brave enough, pure enough, might break it.Complete

No thanks, I'm good (Neglected male reader x RWBY one shot)
You were born the son of Taiyang & Female Qrow, grew up unloved. At a young age you left a broken home to build a new life for yourself. Even went on to become successful, but then Ozpin called. One day you are called to Beacon, you think Ozpin is trying to enroll you...again. But it's really to reunited you with your abusive family, see how it goes. You are middle child, just a month younger than Yang. Ruby & Yang are both your half sisters. Summer is still alive, Raven is still around. So basically Tai went with the harem rout with his team. I originally meant for this to be a multiple chapter story, but when I realize I couldn't I chose to do a super long one shot instead. I always wanted to write my own neglected male reader story.Complete![RWBY: Stand By Me, Always [1] (Raven x M!Reader x OC)](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/162222203-256-k386560.jpg)
