I Have A MAJOR Soft Spot For Reverse AUs And Dark Versions Of Heroes, So Kudos On The Babey Overlords

I have a MAJOR soft spot for reverse AUs and dark versions of heroes, so kudos on the Babey Overlords setting! The designs are gorgeous! By the way, how would Ruby and Cinder's confrontations go in that 'verse?

Awww thanks, man! I appreciate what you said about the designs! Character designs are something I very much love so I love making the outfits for everyone in this AU. 

To answer your question about Cinder and Ruby’s confrontations, let’s just say that they’re quite ...  

... explosive. 

Cinder is very attached to using her sparky sparky boom maiden powers on Ruby. 

I absolutely adore Babey Overlords AU can you give us nicknames oscar and ruby shares? Does ozpin meet ruby? My last question but not least would ruby ever switch sides? If that were the case what would Oscar's reaction be?

The amount of love this AU is getting is blowing me away. Like wow! Thank you so much!!! Without much further ado, I shall get onto your questions:

Ruby’s nicknames for OscarRuby’s nicknames tend to be very sweet and very baby-ish. She’s free from embarrassment when she calls Oscar by his nicknames because she means it and loves on him so much. Her nicknames include:

My King

Chocolate Mint

Pumpkin Spice

Sugar 

Sweetie

Thorn

Boo

Oscar’s nicknames for RubyOscar’s nicknames for Ruby are more reserved and old-fashioned but he can be silly if he wants to. Ruby loves each and every one of her nicknames. His nicknames are:

My Queen

Princess

Sweetness

Shortcake

Ruberry

Angel

Ozpin kind of meets Ruby one time in person here. But it didn’t last very long and Ozpin got died afterwards. He’s more familiar with Ruby through Oscar because the babeys are working to take over the world but Ozpin ultimately sees Ruby as a tool, endearing as she is. Ozpin keeps bothering Oscar to “dispose” of Ruby once they’re done using her. But, you know, Oscar isn’t gonna let that happen. Ever. He’s madly in wuv with his waifu. In fact, Oscar eats the Oz Collective in a spiritual sense to protect Ruby and to stop Ozpin from tormenting.

Ruby wouldn’t want to change sides. She’s very committed to giving the world a Happily Ever After and to Oscar, himself. Doing such a thing would destroy her from the inside because of how much of herself is committed to her goals and Oscar. And if she did ...

Oscar would be heartbroken. And angry. And frustrated. Not only would leaving Oscar ruin Ruby, it’d ruin Oscar as well because he loves her, and this was their dream and she’s turning her back on all of this??? He’d be mad enough that he’d want to kill her, and common sense would fly right out of the window because of how deeply Ruby hurt him. Which would be an advantage for Salem because the boy isn’t thinking straight. 

That type of scenario wouldn’t end well for the both of them (it was never going to end well for them in this AU but this is worse) and Ruby would probably destroy herself along with Oscar if it ever came to betraying him to find some measure of twisted peace. 

So since emercury week is coming up, i figure i gotta ready for one of the prompts. here we have Mercury and Emerald swapped out with Pyrrha and Jaune. 

Mercury is every problematic teen rockstar you’ve seen in mainstream media who was won five tournaments back to back and also trashed hotel rooms, smashed a car and has posed for magazines and sports brand. Most of his gear is sponsored. 

Meanwhile Emerald is a very powerful semblance user who feels she has a debt she can never repay to Cinder Fall. She’s not happy that Mercury is her partner. At all. 

Submit to Your Future Overlords!

All citizens of Remnant are required to bow down to the King and Queen of a Happily Ever After Remnant and leave an offering of cookies and your undying loyalty!

Fun fact, this is actually the first image of the babey overlords i made months bacc for the Rosegarden Zine. This is a pre-order bonus but I am now allowed to release this to the public. 

Hmm, I appear to be behind on checking your Tumblr...What's this Babey/Baby Overlords AU that's been circling around on your page recently?

Ah yes ...

The Babeys ....

The Babey Overlords AU is a Reverse RWBY AU of sorts, where Ruby takes the place of Cinder and Oscar takes the place of Salem and they plan to be the King and Queen of the world that is enjoying its ‘Happily Ever After’. The thing is, they’re so cute, that it’s hard not to give the world. Ruby and Oscar are so sickeningly sweet and lovey-dovey that the world dominating business often gets side-tracked because Ruby’s eyes are so bright and Oscar is so handsome and everybody at the table is going “Your Majesties, please, we need to think of a way to set Beacon Academy on fire ...”

Right now I just have concept art but hopefully I’ll put out full-fledged illustrations soon ...

How would the world look like if ruby and oscar got their way in babey overlords au? Would the world face a tyranny rulers? What would Cinder and the main team be?

Oddly peaceful. 

Oscar’s been working on a virus that can control the world’s population (put them under mind control) as insurance to achieve a global Happily Ever After, meanwhile Ruby’s been working to obtain the maiden powers and relics to make sure there’s no strong opposition against them. 

It’s half successful. 

Cinder and a few other survivors are free from the control of Happily Ever After virus. Cinder can burn away the virus thanks to Salem’s magic and since Salem herself is the source of maiden powers in this AU she can cure it and is naturally immune. Cinder is trying to gather as much survivors as she can into a secure location (I’m thinking maybe Mount Glenn) as Salem and a few others adept in biology and aura-ology come up with a cure to free the masses from Ruby and Oscar’s control. Cinder’s lost a lot of comrades to the virus but she still has Merc, Watts, Neo, Roman, Hazel and a scant few others. There’s even a few that sided with Ruby and Oscar that are on their side now (e.g. Ren) bc, well, the King and Queen of the new world are insane. 

People under the Happy Virus’ control are smiling constantly with a manic look in their eyes. They move in a routine of their daily lives, while not feeling anything but an empty happiness. No pain, no boredom, no stress, no actual happiness. And the people affected by this virus are all under Ruby and Oscar’s control. The people they’ve let be free from the virus are few (mainly the people of their court like Weiss and Yang. With this odd calm, is just a lot of boredom for the ppl on their side. Ruby and Oscar are absolutely content, in fact, they’re even planning a wedding. But everybody else is just so bored of nothing happening that they hope Cinder does something bat-sugar-honey-iced-tea insane just so they can do something.
