Question? Imagine being born into a world that seems set on destroying you. Well, that's the harsh reality for our protagonist from the moment he took his first breath. Not only did he face death threats on a day-to-day basis, but he also had to endure ridicule and hatred from the one closest to him growing up.
If that wasn't enough, the day he stepped toward his future, he was met with nothing but disdain for his dreams. Bullying and betrayal were the norm, along with being cheated at every turn. These people, more like monsters, thrive on his downfall. So what happens when that downfall occurs? Do they celebrate or endure hell like never before? Let's find out what happens next, shall we?

One of a Kind (RWBY x Male Reader)
Now... I know, I know. ANOTHER random RWBY fic out of the literal hundreds that are available. Why in god's good name should I read yours? Let me answer that question.... with another question -AHEM- Have you ever wondered what the world of rwby, how the series of events would of unfolded if the world's guns behaved and functioned like ACTUAL decent and competent weapons? Like, bullets actually working like bullets and them fu**ing hurting when you get shot in the arm by one? How swords, knifes, and any stabby stabby weapons would of affected the show if they actually worked like they were fu**ing intended to? The aim of this fic is to mainly express my love of the show and my "unique" writing style so that I can lay the foundations in making a bigger and better story later on (to me) At the end of the day, this fic basically exists as a written interpritation of what I would of liked added or changed about certain characters or the series as a whole. Some changes may either be minor or miniscule to the complete canon divergence......depends on how I feel when im writing it ngl Note that some moments may be a bit lesser than others mainly due to me writing them when I didn't really know how to write lol. Also, Y/n won't have that 'Me waNnA saVe WoRlD' bs if you actually manage to stick around, please do critisize and critique my work because its the first i've ever done, and, if ya couldn't, tell im a COMPLETE novice. But I do like writing. Anyways, ONWARD OHHH before i forget, no this isn't an AU where grimm, aura and stuff dont exist. I dont wanna spoil too much. Tell me how it goesComplete
Stereotype killer: Being abused and neglected isn't a fast track to godhood
[This is NOT an Abused and Neglected Male reader story, this is a story about the main character getting stuck in this stereotype as Ruby.] We all know the stereotypical story by now. Y/N Rose is born into a loving family, but then as soon as tragedy befalls that family in the form of Summer Rose dying, Y/N is abused and neglected, becoming the target of the family's anger. Later on he escapes, becomes powerful, possibly teams up with Salem, gets revenge, and then things spin off from there. But what if we added something new, or more accurately... Someone who has read this story before gets reincarnated as Ruby Rose on the day she was accepted into Beacon, and decides to steal the spotlight for herself. She takes one look at her circumstances, sees that her chances of being killed are high if she doesn't play her cards right, and decides to abuse all the knowledge she has of the show to overtake Y/N's position as the most powerful being. Will she succeed in overtaking Y/n's place? Will she be killed before her journey can truly start? Stay tuned to find out. {Warning! This story will include the following: Strong language/cussing, use of illegal substances, alcohol, abuse and neglect, gore, sexual acts, murder.
