Summary
This doesn’t seem to be the right order to Celine. Mi-Yeong is going to die and leave her here. If anyone should get to ask for favours, it should be her.
But she doesn’t say that, because this is the love of her life.Instead, she says “What? I’ll do anything!” She’s stupid that way.
“You have to love her. No, Celine, look at me. I’m ordering you! I’m the leader and—” A horrible, choking cough “—I’m saying that you will, that you have to. You have to.”

Summary
“All will not be well, Starfire. We don’t know why Wonder Woman did that, or if that was even the real Slade—”
“That was Slade.” Her voice comes out emotionless but sure. She didn’t intend to volunteer that information, but controlling her own impulses seems to be miles away from her right now. Most of the heads in the room turn to look at her.
Beast Boy stays completely still, eyes closed. She’s not sure he’s hearing anything. Cyborg isn’t in the room. When had he left the room?“How can you be sure?” Robin asks harshly, fists clenching. Terra blinks slowly and breathes out through her nose. She knows because it was embarrassing. Slade would never, ever let himself lose so publicly, so pathetically. Wonder Woman had batted him around like a cat with a ball of yarn. No matter how beneficial, Slade would never humiliate himself, not for a plan or for anything.
His head had splattered like a watermelon hitting a concrete road.

Slade is killed live on TV. Terra, in the midst of infiltrating the Teen Titans, is left completely adrift.

Summary
“Gwen. It’s okay, just tell me what happened. We’ll go from there.”
Gwen lets out a shaky breath, slowly extending her arm towards Miles. Squinting, Miles could make out the orange text only barely.
OUT OF RANGE
“Out of range of what?” He mutters, without much conscious thought. Gwen snatches her hand back, pressing it to her chest.
“Exactly! This thing can travel to thousands of different universes! No one ever warned me it could get out of range—” She begins to pace in small circles, still cradling the watch “It was working fine when I got here!”
“Are you going to start glitching?” Miles asks quietly, causing Gwen to freeze. She looks away from him, out into the city, her shoulders shaking faintly.
“I don’t know.” She whispers, craning her head to look back at Miles. Behind them, a group of people laugh loudly and pop champagne.

OR; Gwen is stuck in Mile's dimension before he ever gets the idea to follow her through any portals.

Summary
“…I can. Help you too. When you get—when you need it.” He sounds painfully awkward, like every word is being dragged out of his mouth against his will.
He suddenly looks very young, barely a teenager in his stupid X-themed outfit, boots just a little too big, hair mussed. He looks like he’s playing dress-up.
Terra thinks of saying -That’s the difference between you and me—I don’t need it.She smiles at him, all teeth, and turns away.
---Or--Robin is blackmailed into becoming Slade's apprentice--and Terra's here too, by the way

Summary
So she’s leaning back against the sand, hidden by several large crates and catching some sun when Marcus enters her perception. She brings her legs in towards her body, curling up so she takes less space and Marcus likely won’t see her behind the crates.
“Did she survive?” yep that’s Marcus’ voice.
“Yeah, she survived alright. Girl gives as good as she gets.” Replies a voice she doesn’t recognize, accompanied with a rather unfortunate coughing fit. They should get that checked out. Who are they even talking about? Some lady enforcer who survived a scuffle?
“I don’t even know why you care. It’d be better for you if she died, at least then you’d be fully gone and free from Silco finding out.” Now Jinx’s ears are pricked, focusing much more intently on the conversation. Was Marcus supposed to kill someone for Silco? He’d be pretty fucking pissed if he found out Marcus was developing morals this far into his bloody career.Marcus lets out a forceful breath. “Just keep an eye on Stillwater.” He replies, voice brusque.
“She’s Vander’s kid, I’d be stupid not to.”
---OR Jinx finds out where Marcus has been hiding her sister, namely, fucking jail. -

Summary
Winry sits close by, legs sprawled carelessly across the floor, hunched over his automail like a gargoyle. She’s not bothered to turn the lights on as the days darkened, and knowing her, she’s forgotten the passage of time completely.
In the shadows of the kitchen cabinets she squints at his foot, her pencil held loosely in her mouth, tip dipping in the air as she moves her lips, muttering without words.
Edward doesn’t mean to distract her—but looking at her he can’t help but shift slightly, hand clenching.----
Winry works on Edwards automail after the final day, and Edward tries to name the painful feeling in his chest.

Summary
Weiss smiles back, awkward and fond. She wants to say:
Yang, do you know I love you? Do you know what that means?
I’d do anything for you. I’d die for you. If I could, I’d learn to be gentle and kind for you.
She digs her fingers into the blankets, keeps her mouth shut. Is this a crush? If so, it’s the right word for it. She feels crushed, crumbling and squashed under some force bigger than her. Something impossible, curving beyond the horizon. Her heart feels more like it’s breaking than growing bigger.
Fuck she thinks.---
Weiss loves her teammates. Or she's a little in love with them. The lines are getting blurry.

Summary
Weiss burns easily. She looks like an exotic species in the summer, a seal or penguin dropped into central Vale without forethought. It’s actually sort of pathetic, the way she clings to the shade, clutching a bottle of water to her chest like a sinner with a cross.
Yang’s an outdoorsy person. Her childhood was spent running through long grass, picking strawberries by the side of the road, walking through the creek with her toes digging into mud. She regains her seasonal freckles quickly, and her skin stays tan all year round. All she’s ever really done is slap a bit of sunscreen on, and then she was good to go.Taking Weiss outdoors is a process

Natasha Romanov is not her real name. They called her operative 20, but that was not her name either. Some men name their weapons, but most do not. It was like this in the Red Room.

Summary
At first, she does it because her hands hurt. Looking back, it is a foolish reason to do anything-pain is a part of any martial art, an expected consequence of training and fighting. But she is six then, bright eyed and hopeful. Life up until this point has been isolation, living in Bao Gu Orphanage, existing as something feral and unlovable. Shifu’s mentorship, guardianship-it seems new and beautiful. Finally, someone sees something in her.
In the coming months, her paw pads crack and bleed. She strains her wrist, cracks a tooth because she keeps gritting her teeth in agony. Master Shifu scolds her recklessness but does not ask where she received her injuries. He does not tell her to stop. Oogway smiles at her in the hallways, invites her for tea, teaches her how to garden. He is trying to help her, somehow, but Tigress cannot make out how. If he really cared, he would help her train, help her please Shifu.

Summary
Uchiha Sasuke is the last Uchiha left in Konoha. He lives in the clan compound by himself-he takes care of the grounds best he can, since all of the civilian landscapers won't go near the clan lands. When he goes to the Academy, he is the only child whose eyes will someday change red. He is alone.
Jun Nagai does not go near the Acadmy training grounds, she does not go near any ninja at all. She looks like any other child brown hair, brown eyes (if her eyes are more copper than brown, it does not matter. If her hair is so dark as to nearly be black, it does not matter)
Jun Nagai isn't anyone important.(Sasuke might not be the last Uchiha left in Kohana.)

Summary
White Diamond handles the training of her personal pearl herself. They say it is because her standards are exacting, that she is meticulous, that she needs a servant as close to godly as she is. Sometimes, in quieter tones, they speculate that she has a fondness for Pearls, must have, to train them so personally.
White Diamond smiles, gleaming, glinting. Perhaps fondness is not the right word.

Summary
Something terrible slips from her throat, unbidden. Half sob, half groan. It’s raw and horrible and too much like mourning. Team RWBY is alive, she would know. The pain in her chest-it’s nothing like what she would feel if they were really gone. It’s sickening, it’s world-ending, but it would be worse if they were dead. She wouldn’t be able to survive that agony, if they were dead. She would know. She would know.

Summary
There’s a girl sitting on the floor. She’s wearing the white uniform that seems to belong to the staff of the white unicorn, and a silver and gold necklace that clings to her neck. The dark skin below her eyes makes her amber irises appear almost like candle lights, flickering wearily in the dark. There’s blood on her sleeves, bright red and familiar, and Winter’s heart begins to beat faster. How old this girl is she doesn’t know, but she looks impossibly young on he floor, tears building in her eyes and a basket of clean linens spilled beside her.
Winter prepares herself to do something foolish.--
The Glass Unicorn is a beautiful place, full of warm light. Winter would know better than anyone what ugly secrets hide in pretty places. -

Summary
She has one year. Her fifteenth birthday is rising over the sad hunched backs of the nearby mountains, only a vague touch of blue against the depths of pure black morning sky. But in hours it will be here, striking against her like the hands of a clock. She has one year, and a decision to make.
Or Raven tries to justify living until her sixteenth birthday.

Summary
She’d not in a good mood when she gets to Beacon.
She’s got a highly irritated cut across her left eye which is likely going to scar (and which has left blood on her dress, which is just one way to make her day slightly more inconvenient) zero chance of retaining her heirship, and is working on faith and pixie dust to let her into a prestigious school with students who can shoot lightning out of their faces. By the time she leaves the nurses office, the opening speech is over and she’s wearing an eyepatch. Ozpin seems concerned when he attempts to lead her to the uniting ceremony, but she sees that for what it is. He might be attempting to gain favor with the heiress of the Schnee Dust company, but her usefulness in that regard has been shot to death.
OR; Weiss becomes a Huntress in a world where the only people with semblances are those who are reunited with the other three people who make up their complete soul.
