Just a man.
(look, I've been listening to epic: the musical and I can't stop thinking about adult jaune seeing a baby cinder and struggling on whether he should kill her or not. So you all have to suffer now.)
Jaune didn't know how, nor did he care. As he found himself in a room in front of a baby's crib as he saw her. A sleeping baby with burning amber eyes staring at him. The eyes Jaune grew to know, and despise.
He unsheathed crocea mors as he raised it above his head. Blade pointing down, ready to be blunged and end it.
Jaune took a deep breath as after a minute he dropped his sword as it hit the wooden floor. Jaune fell to his knees as he looked at the child. He knew what she would become but-
Jaune: I can't hurt you.. but I want to so badly..
Jaune looked at the baby as he carefully reached in, the infant grasping his finger as she giggled. Jaune almost smiled at the sound as he thought back to a brighter memory.
Jaune laid in bed as he held Ruby close with the red reaper clutching their 5 year old son.
Jaune: he's so.. peaceful, just years ago he was crying his head off.
Ruby: well it's not like a lot can't happen between being 9 months old to 5 years.. makes you remember how much time there is in life.
Jaune: yeah..
Jaune brought a hand towards their son as he combed it through his hair. It was pitch black, with red peppering it.
The young boy stirred slightly as he shoved his head in closer. With Jaune having a warm smile.
Jaune: he's going to be a great man.. I can already tell.
Ruby: well, his parents are two huntsmen sooo..
Jaune: id more say his parents are a novice huntsman and exceptional huntress but.. sure thing rubes.
Jaune stared at the infant before carefully picking her up and cradling her.
Jaune: I should.. I should hate you with every fiber of my being, every ounce of my soul.. but you.. I can't.. I know why I should.. you grow up into.. her. But you're just a girl, an innocent child.. you almost look like..
Jaune pressed against the wall before sliding down onto the floor, sitting. He crossed his legs and began stroking the infant's head.
Jaune couldn't tell if he was holding the woman whose neck he wanted to wrap his hands around and watch the light leave her eye.. or a daughter.
Jaune released a hick as tears began to roll down his cheeks. He released another hick before he began to sob.
Jaune: dear oum.. dear oum how could I hurt a daughter?..
The ending doesn't have to be set in stone, right?
@spahhzy @epic-arc get your asses over here, this war ain't over yet.
The Greater good.
Jaune looked at the infant as she held onto his finger with her small hands. Jaune looked back at his sword. It glinted in the moonlight as he knew what he had to do. He stood up holding the young girl.
Jaune: forgive me.. for I am just a man.
He placed the infant cinder back in the crib as he grabbed Crocea Mors. His eyes were dry of tears but they still demanded to keep weeping. He lifted the blade over his head. As he looked at the infant. He hesitated before he closed his eyes.
There was a loud crash as jaune now stood, his sword covered in blood. He fell to his knees as he avoided looking at the destroyed crib.. and the murdered infant.
Jaune:.. I.. I had to do it.. I needed to do it, to save my friends.
Jaune released another hick as he began to turn to dust. He fulfilled his mission.. he did it for the greater good.
Right?
Just a man.

@spahhzy @epic-arc get your asses over here, this war ain't over yet.
It will still come.
Jaune stood up as he cradled the young fall maiden to be.
Jaune: maybe I can change you.. maybe I can make you a better person.. make you more than the person you were.
Jaune grabbed Crocea mors from the ground, before sheathing it was he grabbed the blanket from the crib. He wrapped it around cinder despite her already being covered in a blanket.
He began to walk out of the house, holding cinder in his arms. As the world went white.
Fifteen years later.
Jaune watched on in horror as his daughter stood in front of their burning home. Cinder stayed back at him with those same dead eyes he saw before.
Jaune: cinder.. what did you do?
Cinder: I did what I was supposed to.. I became the monster you wrote of..
Jaune: you.. you read my journal?!
Cinder: of course I did.. I was just thinking it was fiction but something.. clicked. Something I know all to well.
Jaune stayed silent as he looked down, anger boiling up but it wasn't directed at his daughter.. but himself.
Jaune couldn't even fight as he felt a sword struck him, ending his life.
Just a man.

The monster of man.
Jaune sat there for what felt like.. hours. He cradled the young cinder fall. He stood up still holding her. As an idea came to him. He grabbed Crocea mors and sheathed it. He looked at the infant as he had a small smile on his face.
Jaune: maybe I can avert your fate.. and give you something better.. maybe I could do something.. drastic.. let's leave here, and get you somewhere safe.. somewhere you'll be given a good family.
Cinder couldn't remember anything of her real family. All she knew was that they left her with her current family. As she was getting dressed with her younger brother jaune.
Jaune: I still say you don't have to come with me.
Cinder: well I can't risk you doing something stupid.. especially if you're set on your path.
Jaune: well.. I can't exactly argue with that.
Jaune and Cinder looked at eachother. Jaune could tell the question his sister was asking in her eyes.
Jaune: I'm sure Cinder... I need to do this.
Cinder: need, or want to?
Jaune:.. need.
Cinder simply not as once they were dressed they set off to the bullhead. To beacon academy.

Yang and Blake are my babies
My angsty head-canon is that Blake still, even after volume 6, and after getting rid of Adam, continued to blame herself for what happened to Yang. To the point where, whenever they aren't busy saving Remnant and have time to themselves, Yang goes out to train, Blake follows after her. She lays down in an area where she can watch Yang; hear her sounds, the laughs she lets out when she, idk, uses brute force to cut down a tree! Her blonde her tied up for those few seconds. Red eyes glowing. Blakes' book would be forgotten, until Yang turns around to look at her, eyebrow raised; childish grin on her face. Blake's eyes drift down, her ears twitch.
She wouldn't look back up at her, but she would remember the moment they met. Yang asking her name, introducing herself, giving her hand out to shake. She would remember how she tried to ignore her, how dismissive she was, and how warm her hand felt. Blake would look up, staring at Yang, her hands, the way she moves with no hesitation, the sound of her punches. While her ears press against her head, she would stare, feeling guilty, knowing that Yang didn't blame her.
But each time she watched her train, she would think of the day she willingly refused to grasp her hand in her own. How she lost a single happy memory with her. I imagine when it gets that bad, Blake would walk over to Yang -- whose adrenaline at that point is through the roof, chest heaving, covered in sweat, hair flowing down her back in a nest of tangles. Saying nothing, Blake would stand in front of her, till Yang, smiles with complete joy, dragging Blake closer to her by her waist, pressing her hand against her dark hair. Breathing against her hair, while her heart and breathing rate calms down. While Blake wastes no time, hugging her back, promising to never let go of her.
