    Summary

    Yang and Ruby’s childhood in five parts! Each chapter can be read as a separate Drabble if you want to read it that way

     

    “I’ll be a better sister.” Yang promised. “You won’t have to worry about us anymore.”

    Qrow laughed bitterly. “I’ll always worry, you’re my favorite niece. Don’t tell your sister.”

    Summary

    A few scenes and an introspective look at Yang in volume 4, fleshing out more of her recovery.

     

    She didn’t get this version of her dad back then. It feels too late to collapse into his arms. She wishes either one of them were strong enough for it, but Yang can’t open up and Tai can’t receive it. And in her grief, she is alone.

    Or maybe Tai is grieving too, over the loss of a daughter he sees everyday, an empty shell of the girl he wasn’t able to raise.

    Summary

    “Oh, come on. ‘Ferry Strike Drags On?’” Jaune complains, reading from the board. “It’s like Schnee doesn’t even want us to sell papers.”

    “Better than another election puff piece talking about how great he is,” Oscar grumbles with a shrug. “Hawking that stuff makes my teeth hurt.”

    “C’mon, guys, lay off. What do I always say?” Yang asks, tone dripping with cloying encouragement.

    She’s rewarded with eye rolls and a ragtag chorus of voices ranging from unenthused to vaguely hostile: “Headlines don’t sell papes, newsies sell papes.”

    [Or: Newsies AU! Blake arrives in Mantle with simple goals: stay away from the White Fang, keep her head down, get a job, and survive. The last thing she expects is to end up smitten with a charming fellow newsie like Yang. But when Jacques Schnee cruelly hikes the internal cost of the paper, Blake finds out that Yang’s been listening to all of Blake’s talk about fair labor practices and social justice a lot more closely than Blake realized—and the duo form a union that just might give both of them something to believe in.]
