Summary
Ruby Rose is trying to relax after a particularly frustrating training session in Mistral one day when she comes across an old photo of Team STRQ she had saved onto her scroll for ages. Eager to show off how cooler her mother and father were in their youth, she shares the photograph with her friends when Nora points out something rather curious: Ruby really looks nothing like her father, but she sure does resemble Raven Branwen a heck of a lot for someone with no blood relation. A seemingly endless thread of questions and doubt unravels itself before her very eyes when Ruby is force to confront the fact that a core part of her identity, that of her awesome mom and dad who'd always done their best for her, might have been a lie all along.

After yet another morning at Evernight Castle with Cinder goes wrong, Emerald tries to be grateful for what little luck she does have…

A RWBY Anthology series set in an Alternate Universe where the fates of two heiresses are twisted into opposite directions.

Summary
It's almost your average small-town love story. One girl is a good-hearted mechanic with a talent for fixing anything she touches and a burning desire to do the right thing. The other girl is a sweet but fierce adventurer with a past she's trying to get away from. There's a nebulous profit-hungry corporation trying to mess up their lives, but with the power of ingenious thinking and love, Ruby and Penny will overcome them.
There is one small difference from the rest of those small-town love stories, though: Penny is a sentient machine, who would very much like a body shaped like a human, but all she's got at the moment is a 1956 Volkswagen Beetle. It's not like Ruby minds, though!

Summary
Raven Branwen left her fledgling family and newborn daughter behind believing (or just determined to believe) that she wasn't fit to be a parent. Four years later, her estranged wife Summer Rose attempts to recruit her for a desperate strike against Salem herself without much in the way of a plan. In response, Raven knocks Summer out and drags her through a portal to Tai.
After discovering that her erstwhile spouses have had another girl without her, and that little Ruby's inherited silver eyes make her a vulnerable target for Salem's forces, Raven ends up involving herself in the family's lives despite her own awareness of how likely the resulting romantic tension is to blow up in all their faces and her debilitating fear of somehow ruining Yang or Ruby purely by proximity.

Summary
Weiss Schnee is about to get everything she's ever wanted: her freedom, her future, her first steps toward a dream she never thought would come true. Unbeknownst to her, she's always been a pawn in a larger game; no one bothered to explain the rules to her.
As her life begins to collapse around her at Beacon Academy, very few people are actually qualified to help her weather this storm.
Nora Valkyrie is one of them, if Weiss would just let her in.
