@sleeplesswork​ asked: Summer gave a soft smile to the black haired-girl standing a couple feet away from her. She’d been in Emerald Forest no longer than a minute when she spotted the girl, who was now supposed to be her partner for the rest of their time at Beacon.

- ( unprompted Summer and Raven first meeting )

unprompted // accepting !!

This wasn't the plan. This wasn't the fucking plan.

It had sounded so simple, at the outset: go into the forest, find your partner. She'd planned to meet up with Qrow -- half of these kids didn't have any idea what they were doing, couldn't navigate a forest if their lives depended on it. It should have been simple. And then Professor Ozpin hurled them off a cliff, and fucking Misfortune. She should have used her semblance. A hair sooner, and she would have taken herself to wherever his dumbass had landed, and all would be fine. But no.

Now she's standing in a clearing, staring back at the girl who had found her. The girl who is smiling so sweetly. It was a nice smile, but it did little to dull the irritation Raven was feeling. Fuck.

"...Fine." That was all she said. No introductions, no greetings. One word, and she's turning on her heel to start off into the forest. "Hurry up."

“I just wanna see if this works,” Qrow grunted as he tightened his hold on Raven’s hair and tugged.

He’d done his research ahead of time. He knew that this trick probably wasnt going to work on a bottle that wasnt already twist-top. Before he’d come in the room, Qrow’d prepared this bottle by loosening the lid.

But he was counting on Raven not knowing that. When the bottle cap clattered to the floor, Qrow let out a whoop of excitement. “Holy shit that worked!”

She's seconds away from snapping at him for whatever this idiocy is when he tugs her hair and -- plink -- the bottle cap pops off the bottle and lands on the floor, rolling away.

What.

@littleblackqrow​ asked: "Hang on, I saw this in a video-" Qrow grabbed a strand of his sister's hair, and wrapped it around the neck of a bottle, under the pop cap, fully intending on using it to pop the bottle open.

unprompted // accepting !!

A noise escapes Raven's throat when Qrow grabs her hair, and she has half a mind to tear herself away from the hold... but when she sees the way he's wrapping her hair around a bottle, confusion replaces irritation.

She'll be annoyed with him in a minute -- first she wants to see what the fuck he's doing.

@maidensfall​ asked: (¬‿¬ ) + (¬‿¬ ). Shit eating grin.

It would be the little maiden, now, wouldn't it? Raven makes easy work of her skirt, slipping it past her hips to fall down around her feet. She steps out of it, taking no shame in having her simply underwear exposed, before reaching up as if to pull off her shirt...

...and redirecting, removing her her headpiece instead. The red bandana and black feathers are set aside, leaving Raven in her black underwear and top. "So close."

@noirsomen​ asked: (¬‿¬ ). She'll look away to be respectful, but also, she doesn't want to be the only introvert stuck in this.

For every (¬‿¬) I get my muse will remove a piece of clothing. // accepting !!

If she knew Blake thought she was an introvert, she would have laughed. It was cute. Fortunately, Raven can make this move without flustering the poor little kitten too badly -- reaching behind her to undo the wrap around her waist, dropping it to the side. Her top is unwrapping somewhat without the wrap to hold it closed, but she’s not entirely exposed.

@verdantsillusion​ asked: (¬‿¬ ) She had to do it, Raven's being dragged in too.

For every (¬‿¬) I get my muse will remove a piece of clothing. // accepting !!

Unhooking Omen from her hip, Raven gives a little more than just the weapon by removing her belts and the flaps that attach to them. She could have removed each piece individually if she felt like being particular, but this simply felt more fun.

She's getting down to her actual clothing now.

@tornhellfire asked: (¬‿¬ ) (very odd for Weiss given Raven has kidnapped her... but the girl knows beauty when she sees it.)

For every (¬‿¬) I get my muse will remove a piece of clothing. // accepting !!

This girl is the same age as her daughter. There's something distinctly uncomfortable about this, but Raven simply rolls her eyes, slipping the necklaces from around her neck and tossing them to join her things.

"Sorry to disappoint, little girl."

@sunguns​ asked: (¬‿¬) This one's coming from her new lieutenant. He's just throwing it in there to increase the chaos, as one does.

For every (¬‿¬) I get my muse will remove a piece of clothing. // accepting !!

@slaughtermachine​

Tsk, tsk. Even the people who are on her side are here to strip her down. Again, she bends down, rolling down the fabric that wraps her lower legs -- her legs fully exposed now, she's down to just her actual clothing and her jewelry.

@fatumsolutus​ asked: From @deviousdoctor​: *Cough* (¬‿¬)

For every (¬‿¬) I get my muse will remove a piece of clothing. // accepting !!

A brow lifts, amusement playing across her face before Raven bends down and slips off her boots, kicking them to the side. "Sorry. It'll take a few more layers before this gets interesting."

@flightofaqrow​ asked: (¬‿¬) "just like old times." (he means river swimming and communal bathing. it is obviously not weird to say this at all.)

For every (¬‿¬) I get my muse will remove a piece of clothing. // accepting !!

"..." She stares a moment, before rolling her eyes and beginning to tug off her gloves. "You know, you're the reason people thought we were too fucking close in school."

@trickshottruths​ asked: (¬‿¬)

For every (¬‿¬) I get my muse will remove a piece of clothing. // accepting !!

"I'll give you the mask for free," she chuckles, removing the mask and placing it to the side before unstrapping her bracers and sliding them off her forearms. Simple. "Oh, now I feel exposed."

@flightofaqrow​ asked: no anon i'm fessing up to this. i just want to see actual raven x tai. built up during beacon, longing but knowing it would be toxic during timeline, some awkward tense terribleness in current timeline of them just trying to be civil and move the convo forward. there's so much there and we get maybe 2% of it and i want to see it fleshed out why hasn't this happened yet!!!! okay i'm done.

Anonymously message me one ship you’d like to see on my blog and why. // accepting !!

see, this is why @unlockthestars​ needs to finish their updating because I love writing this stuff with their Tai. The problem is we talk about it a lot so it doesn't always make it onto the dash but we love writing that angle of their relationship, watching it shift. Raven being unable to figure out why this sunshine idiot won't give up on trying to be nice to her. I am a fan. ;w; 

@anonymous asked: Summer x Raven

Anonymously message me one ship you’d like to see on my blog and why. // accepting !!

Oh heck yeah. I'll write this any day. I especially love it because Summer is one of the few people Raven allows herself to be soft(er) around. She's still rough and harsh but it's different with Summer. I don't write it a ton but I do love it. uwu

@wiitchisms​ asked: 🐦

send ‘🐦’ for my muse to write a thirst tweet about yours. // accepting !!

this kinda sounds like a death threat
