Never forget the blonde noodle was able to somewhat keep up with his peers early on in his hunter career despite having zero training. They trained for years and he just Walt’s in and passes the test for beacon even being a team leader!

More luck than skill, to be honest. He was launched into the forest with no landing strategy or aura, and managed to survive only because Pyrrha caught him in time.

But after that, he started to realize, “Oh, shit! I almost died!” And tried his hand at survival skills. He made a torch. Good on him! He also managed to outrun the Deathstalker he woke up. Also good on him! He even managed to figure out how to kill said Deathstalker in a creative way with his team. Super good!

Overall, I grade him a B+. He started off slow, and showed little promise in the beginning, but he really came into his own at the end there. Not perfect, but he has great promise for growth.

Pyrrha saving him put him under the exact same force as him hitting the ground. Arguably more because of the added force of her throw. Add to this the he out ran a death stalker and matched the physical capabilities of trained aura users we are left with 2 options.

1 jaune is able to instinctively use aura right after it’s unlocked to the same level as his peers all prodigies that Excell over the average actual huntsmen we’ve seen

Or more likely based on his survive of the fall and his lack of understanding in how aura works or what it does

2 Jaune’s natural strength un aided is greater than the enhanced abilities of training aura using prodigies

Basically whatever Jaune’s life was like before beacon his stats for lack of a better word were higher than his friends were but he had zero training and lacked the mentality nessisary to fight. He also lacked training.

Which is fucking hilarious to think of because what if he didn’t become a huntsmen? Would there just be some accountant with the ability to tank falls from an airplane and the strength to lift 300lbs and run faster than the speed limit?

Farmer Jaune AU where he accepts his father’s demands stays with the family and still becomes a world hero because he’s just built different.

Ruby: Hi, we’re a team of huntresses out on a mission. Could you tell us what the problem is? It was very vague.

Jaune: Problem? I don’t think we have any problems. I usually take care of the Grimm myself.

Yang: You, straw-man?

Jaune: (Nods) I’ve been taking care of this farm for years now. I haven’t seen anything I couldn’t handle.

Yang: Well, I’m sure you and your wife are very happy about that.

Jaune: Oh, uh, I’m not married. I’m just looking after the farm until my parents get back.

Weiss: Well, the report came from a “Nicholas Arc” asking us to “wrangle in the monster.”

Jaune: That’s my dad, but I don’t know anything about a monster.

Blake: It must have been resolved already.

Jaune: Well, the last thing I saw was one of those big-armed Grimm, but he was pretty easy to deal with.

Ruby: A beringel?! Wow! What weapon did you use?!

Jaune: Shovel. Broke it, too. It was a good shovel.

Weiss: …What?!

Ozpin: “And you kidnapped him?”

Yang: “I mean. I like to think we rescued him.”

Ozpin: “You put aura restraints on him and dragged him off of his family farm.”

Weiss: “The law is quite clear when it comes to unregistered Aura users.”

Jaune: *Steps through the door* I’m sorry but I think I broke your fancy handcuffs. Also can I go home now?”

Yang: *Wide eyed* “You broke aura restraints!?”

Jaune:“Aurwha?”

Weiss:“Y-You don’t know what Aura is?”

Jaune:“No…”

Ozpin: *Pinching his nose bridge* “I knew I should have sent team VPR instead.”

RWBY: Rose’s Thorns

Blake grimaced at her arm. The bite mark was taking much longer to heal than usual. Sitting next to her was Nora, chomping away at some pancakes.

Nora: *sees bite mark* Oh my god! What happened?

Blake: *sighs* Ruby.

Nora: Huh? Wait… ohhhhh. *smirks* So you and her have decided to take things up a notch? *winks*

Blake: …not excatly.

[Flashback- Rose Xiao Long House]

Blake and Ruby cuddled together as they watched their favourite movie, 200 Days of Winter. Blake snuck a little kiss on Ruby’s forhead, making the crimsonette squeak. She noticed that the plate had only one cookie left after they had devoured the others. Carefully, Blake shuffled her arm away from Ruby and tried to reach for the cookie. Suddenly-

BITE!!!

Blake: Ow! Ruby!

Ruby: *pouts* My cookie! *eats the cookie*
