Summary
In their fourth year of Beacon, Blake Belladonna and Yang Xiao Long are seen by their friends as being as perfect a match as there could possibly be. They talk openly and honestly with one another, their synergy in combat has helped elevate their team into a rare pantheon of school royalty, and their stalwart dedication to one another brooks no-room for anyone to question or interfere in their relationship.
However, they also happen to match each other's freak, and being a couple that holds zero doubts or hesitance about their feelings for one another, they have no scruples about actively involving anyone they share attraction with to experience the sexual depravities with them.
So whereas most couples might be somewhat cross upon the discovery of May Zedong, Shade Academy's resident sniper specialist, accidentally (at least initially) bearing witness to their bedroom exploits from a tree near their dorm window one fine Thursday, the Bees merely view it as another avenue to explore their kinks, and eventually, extend an invite to their introverted voyeur.
After all, why would the Bees sting someone when they can just make honey instead?

Summary
Yang Xiao Long has spent seven years away from the violence she was born and bred into, becoming a quiet, reclusive farmhand at her long-estranged father's ranch. It's simple and honest, and until she had it, she was unaware that it was exactly what she needed.
Unfortunately, simple and honest were neither of the things she used to be, and events are conspiring to drive her out of the shadows and into the flames of a life she'd thought reduced to ash years before, leaving not only her, but the only things she's ever truly cared about in the path of a reckoning layered in blood, Dust and bullets.
Hell is coming to Vale, and Yang has to pray that if the story of the Golden Dragon must add another violent chapter, that she can be cleansed by pulling iron for the right reasons.

Summary
One of them had listened to her instincts to run a lot sooner, and so she did, away from her past, away from her life. Only a new life isn't what she found, bound by fear and the all encompassing will to survive. She didn't need the Academies, she'd sacrificed too much already to risk being a huntress, and she was too ashamed to return home. All there was anymore was tomorrow, and her ability to rise and greet it.
The other was a fractured person wearing the face of someone far more whole. A broken hero was still broken, but the world moved on and forgot, leaving her alone in a cage with no bars, with thoughts of betrayals and what-might-have-beens, she can still identify something deep down, burning, consuming, and hoping to roar back to life before it gets snuffed out completely.
A beast borne of guilt.
A fighter bent by abandonment.
Years after Salem's defeat, they can walk the path to recovery together, or surrender themselves to a mutual end.

Summary
“What do I do then?”
“There’s only so much you can do.”
Yang thought of all the possibilities of what she could do. She looked down at Cecilia who looked up at her, those golden eyes that seemed to sparkle despite everything that had happened. The mother’s words echoed in her mind as she made her decision.
“Please take care of her.”
She didn’t know what the future would hold, she knew it would be bumpy, but in her mind, in her heart, she knew this feeling was right.
(Ex-firefighter Yang adopts a faunus. Her entire life is now focused on her daughter. But once she promises her family not to do any more dangerous jobs, she’s left wondering where to go from there. By some twist of fate, her daughter’s favorite celebrity has an opening.)

Summary
All Ruby had wanted was to prove she was a good enough engineer to see the stars. All Yang had wanted was to enjoy each morning having new constellations outside the window. All Weiss had wanted was to leave good marks in the few corners of the galaxy her father hadn't tainted. And all Blake had wanted was to challenge a system that oppressed her people across all the core worlds.
When the 'Beacon' suffers a horrific enough malfunction that those aboard are forced to leap into escape pods and eject onto a world far on the edge of civilised space, the few who make it to the surface alive are faced with having to work together just to survive a wilderness they don't understand, in a forest that somehow seems haunted with every ghost they never wanted to face, but also might be hiding everything they might come to want.

Summary
After Weiss' horrendous first year at Beacon, she was excited to kick off a more traditional semester at Beacon, one where she didn't have to battle White Fang extremists, or stave off one of the largest Grimm invasions in Vale's history. Even if after the dust all settled, her biggest crush transformed into her girlfriend overnight (and Weiss developed two other crushes she was NOT going to pursue), both her teammates and her friends on team JNPR had suffered far too much their previous semester.
With both the city of Vale finishing up reconstruction, and public opinion souring enough against her father for Atlas to FINALLY start handing him his ass in court, Weiss thought her second year as a Huntress-in-training was finally looking up...
Up until the moment she started puking honey everywhere, and she learned that Blake was not the only SURPRISE faunus on team RWBY.
Or,
A canon divergence fic where Beacon never falls, Weiss learns she's secretly a Bee Faunus, and I take some very creative liberties with the Pollination ship in a very LITERAL way.
