AN:
Shadow: This story is a new idea we both decided to work on one day, since, well, random RP we did. I also want to clarify that this is not a one shot. It is linked one shot prompts. Same universe in every chapter.
Cmdr: To be fair I took it way too far but on the bright side we have another new pairing to unleash upon the world!
Shadow: We do want to warn you guys now though. Some of the characters in this one will be OOC, since it calls for it for this kind of story.
Cmdr: Especially with a certain crimson eyed mama. That said this story probably has more fluff in it than Pedigree does.
"Yes, Yang, this is our new home. You should be happy about this. I mean, just look at how happy Ruby is," Raven pointed to the bunny Faunus hopping around her two friends.
"Ruby is always excited, mother…" Yang sighed as she crossed her arms and looked at the new house they were moving into. "Ugh, this kind of change is seriously tough to deal with."
Raven placed her hand on her daughter's head and patted it a few times. "I know, but this change does mean Weiss and Blake get to live here too, so maybe if you think about them, then it will be much easier to adjust."
"I guess…" The lion Faunus cub relented.
"Hurry up you two, Ruby, Blake, Weiss and I can't unload all of these boxes by ourselves!" Summer called over to her wife and daughter from the moving truck with a large moving box in her hands.
While watching them, the white haired fox Faunus and black haired cat Faunus were getting out of the car they arrived in. "Do you think Yang is going to get used to this? She looked a little angry on the way here," Weiss noted.
"She did seem agitated, her tail wouldn't stop twitching while we loaded the moving truck. And I know you were picking up her pheromones," Blake replied.
"Should we go talk to her?" Weiss asked as she walked to the back of the car with Blake.
"I saw Raven talking with her. We'd better give her a few minutes to calm down first," The black haired cat Faunus suggested.
While Weiss and Blake were getting boxes from the back of the car, Raven walked over to Summer. "Sorry about that, Summer," Raven noticed Yang wasn't with her, and sighed as she looked back and saw her standing where they were. "She is still not happy about this."
"Well she gets it from you, dear. Even though she is a lion, she has your blood and ravens tend to only make one nest after all. She'll get used to it with time," Summer said, passing Raven a box before grabbing another.
Ruby was holding a smaller box and she looked up at Raven. "Hey, mamma, what's wrong with Yang?" The bunny asked with concern for her older sister.
"Your sister is just having issues getting used to the idea of living here. That's all, Bunny," Raven said, smiling faintly at her younger daughter.
Ruby's bunny ears drooped at hearing that, so she ran over to her sister with the box still in hand. "Yang!"
The lion Faunus looked over at her little sister running over. "Ruby? What's wrong?" When the bunny Faunus got there, she started to pant, but then looked up with a frown.
"Mama said you didn't like it here...W-Why? Weissy and Blake get to live with us now this way," Ruby's ears were still drooping.
"It's not that I don't want to be here, it's just that getting used to being here is what I'm having an issue with," Yang sighed, her ears flattening and her tail wrapping around herself.
Ruby put the box down and jumped on her older sister, knocking her to the ground, but not hard enough to hurt. "You need to be happy, Yang. Mom and Mama are both so happy with this house...please try."
"I never said I wouldn't, Rubes. Only that it's gonna take me a while," Yang said as she dusted herself off and scratched her sister behind the ears.
Weiss and Blake walked over to the two, mostly because they were concerned about the fall they took. "Are you two dolts okay?"
"We're fine, Weissy. It's not the first time we've tackled each other, you know," Ruby said, her foot tapping a little from Yang's scratching.
Blake glanced at Yang for a quick second and was still concerned about how she was feeling, but before she could say anything, she heard Summer calling out to them. "Girls! Let's get moving already. We're already here, so no point in wasting time outside."
"Coming, Summer!" Blake said before motioning for the other three to follow her.
"Come on, you heard the alpha."
Weiss blinked a few times at that and sighed. "You really like saying that, don't you?"
"Weiss, out of the two of them, Summer wears the pants. You know that," Blake replied.
"Ugh, you know I'm not Yang. I don't speak like that," The fox Faunus said as she walked close to Ruby. "And you, why did you decide to tackle your sister...again?"
"Weissy, you saw how Yang was, it was the one thing I could think of to do to get her mind to a better place," Ruby answered.
Raven could hear the girls as they walked over. "From you and I, to Yang and Ruby. Now Weiss and Blake. A family of Faunus all in one house. You ready to handle that, honey?"
"Of course, Raven. The issue now though is how often we'll be able to get time for ourselves after we've finished moving in," Summer said, her white tipped wolf ears flattening as a predatory look entered her eyes as she looked Raven over.
Raven blushed from the look and had to hide it, since Yang was walking over with the others, but she did lean in to whisper to Summer. "You never complained about that when Yang and Ruby were in the house."
"True but they were younger then, and less likely to knock before entering. We had a reason to stay tame." Summer whispered back before nipping gently her wife's earlobe and grabbing another box.
Yang rolled her eyes when she saw that and made a coughing sound to get their attention. "We're not even in the house yet, you know."
"U-uh w-well then, Yang, grab a box and get moving so we can be in the house," Raven said, stammering slightly at Summer's affections.
Yang sighed as she went over to grab a box. "Fine." She was clearly still upset, but she wouldn't just let the others carry everything without her.
"You'll get used to it, Little Cub. Just give it time," Raven assured with a small smile as she hoisted another box.
"Okay…" Yang walked into the house and looked around it. "What made you guys pick this place exactly?"
"Well for one we're only a few miles from Signal. Second did you see the beach or the view of the mountains? It's beautiful, better than living in Vale proper," Raven replied smiling.
"I have to admit, this is a change for me too, but even I can say this is a lovely spot," Weiss agreed.
"So how long till we get to use the bathroom?" Ruby asked while jumping up and down, looking like she was ready to burst. "I really gotta pee!"
"The water is already running in the pipes, Bunny! Go!" Summer called out from the doorstep.
Ruby sped off to the bathroom, leaving the others to catch the box she had to drop. "Ruby Rose! You don't just drop boxes like that!" Weiss yelled out as she and Blake were both holding the box on the ground after they dove for it.
"That wasn't the china was it?" Raven asked looking at Blake and Weiss as they stood up with the box.
Weiss and Blake looked at each other in fear that it could've been and opened the box after having Raven cut it open. "Um...it was the baby albums, so I think it's all good."
"Mother, you better not be planning to show those to Blake and Weiss!" Yang said, mortified as she saw the box after coming outside to grab another.
"Of course not, sweetie!" Raven called out, but in the back of her mind she knew that it was going to happen at one point. "Let's just close this back up for now." Raven handed the box back after closing it up, but something caught her eye and she sighed. "Summer...bring the girls in the house, please."
"What's wrong?" The wolf Faunus asked.
"He's here now...so just bring them inside while I go talk to my...most likely drunk brother," Raven groaned as she looked at the crow on the tree branch.
"Try always drunk. You all heard her, let's give these two their privacy," Summer said, ushering the Ruby, Weiss, and Blake back into the house.
Raven walked over to the tree and snapped her fingers. "Get down already. You know this whole being a crow thing isn't exactly what you should do when your nieces are here."
"I seem to recall you wanted them to learn about their own semblances. That won't happen if they don't see someone use theirs," Qrow said as he landed in a cloud of black feathers.
"It's called saying hi to your family when they arrive. Not watch them from the top of a tree all day till you get sober," Raven said as she crossed her arms.
"In my defence, I'm not drunk. How was the trip over, Sis?" Qrow asked.
"Yang wasn't happy the entire time...so as well as you would think. Summer's happy though, since we finally moved out. Have you spoken to Tai recently?" Raven inquired.
"Yeah I have. He's doing well, a few odd jobs here and there. Last I heard though he was looking to put himself through the Vale Police Academy," Qrow said, leaning against the tree he had been perched in.
Raven chuckled at that, since she remembered back when they were younger how much Tai wanted to be an officer. "That's good. I do wish he'd come to visit soon. That man is the reason Summer and I have our little lion and bunny after all."
"I'm sure he'll make the time. He's not like most people, even if Tai's not legally their father he still cares. If anything I'll make sure he gets the time, Glynda owes me a favor still," The grey and red clad crow Faunus promised.
Raven looked back at the house for a moment. "Hmm, a favor, huh? What exactly did you even do to get a favor from Goodwitch?" She asked as she looked back at her brother.
"Nothing too major, just helped bring in another lowlife. Guy named Torchwick, no big deal," Qrow replied with a shrug.
"Well, just let him know we've arrived. I need to go in and help with the boxes." Raven turned to walk back, but looked over her shoulder, "You gonna help out?"
"Why not? I'm here, aren't I?" The officer answered, grabbing one of the boxes from the truck.
"By the way, why did you vouch for us to Jacques and Ghira to take care of Blake and Weiss?" Raven asked.
"Because, Raven, I knew the two of you would be able to take care of them and they'd be happy here as long as they choose to stay." Qrow said thinking about when he had approached the most powerful people in Atlas and Menagerie.
"Thanks for doing that, I know it wasn't easy."
"It was no problem, Sis." Qrow said smiling at his sister.
Summer walked over to Yang and took her hand. "Yang, would you like to take a walk? Maybe some fresh air will help you clear your mind."
"Sure, I guess," Yang said, following her mom out to the lawn.
As they were leaving the house, they saw Raven and Qrow. "Uncle Qrow!" Yang smiled as she ran over and hugged her uncle. "You're here!"
"Of course I'm here, Little Cub. What kind of uncle would I be if I didn't drop by to help his family move into their new place?" Qrow said, staggering slightly with the combined weight of his niece and the box that was in his hands.
Yang pulled back and looked back at Summer. "Um, so should we still have that walk? I'm not exactly sure where we'd go."
"Well, there is one place I visited when your Mother and I were looking for the house. Follow me, Yang," Summer said, leading her daughter from the house and into the woods not far away. After a few minutes of walking, they found themselves standing on a cliff overlooking the woods below and the sun just starting to set. "Not a bad view, is it, Little Cub?" Summer asked, giving her daughter a sidelong glance.
"Wow...How come we've never seen pictures of this place? It's so mind blowing. I mean, I would've brought the others here just to see this," Yang said as she looked out in awe at the view.
"I figured letting you have the first look would be better. I know you aren't happy about the move, Yang. I know you had to leave a lot of your friends back in the city, but I hope what you've seen of this place so far will make you see that this place will be better for you and the others. And that you'll want to see more of it," The red and white wolf Faunus said, pulling Yang into a hug.
Yang thought about what her mom said and how she really did have to leave behind some friends. It hurt, but she had a small spark of happiness in her gloomy mood. "I hope so too. Everyone is here. Heck, Weiss and Blake get to live with us. Still, I hope I can visit my other friends. I miss them."
"I know you do, dear. You'll still be able to. And who knows, we might even be able to get them to come here and visit too," Summer said, scratching Yang slowly behind her ears.
Yang sniffled a bit and sat down on the grassy cliff, her tail wrapping around her ankles. "Is this place...you know, safe enough for me to go to every now and then? It just feels like a place I'd like to take everyone once in awhile."
"Of course, your uncle Qrow and I were planning on getting a railing placed up here and possibly a small path. As long as you're careful around the edge till we get the railing up, you and the others should be fine here," Summer said, sitting down next to Yang.
Yang leaned her head down on her mother's lap and smiled. "I know it sounds weird, but I do wish Ruby was here right now instead of me. I always feel like she's more like you than me…"
"Your mother may have been the one to carry you, Yang, but you're just as much a part of me as Ruby is. Never forget that, Little Cub," Summer said, continuing to slowly scratch Yang's ears.
Yang closed her eyes and sniffled again after hearing that. "I love you, mom."
"I love you too, Yang," Summer whispered as she started to hum a lullaby that she and Raven had created when Yang and Ruby were born.
About thirty minutes went by before they got back to the house, though Yang was asleep with Summer carrying her. "So the Little Cub fell asleep, huh?" Qrow asked while taking a drink.
"Yeah, I think she's going to be fine here after all," Summer said, closing the front door quietly with her foot.
Raven walked over to Summer and took Yang in her arms. "I'll take her to bed. Ruby is playing one of her video games with Weiss and Blake right now, so if you wanna go see them before heading to bed, go on."
"Thanks, Raven," Summer said as her wife relieved her of Yang's weight. Making her way to the sounds of laughter and excited squeals, the wolf Faunus found her younger daughter and her friends. "Did you all manage to get settled in alright?" She asked.
"Mom!" Ruby exclaimed, but then went back to focusing on the game to win her fight. "One sec! I gotta show Blake that you don't mess with a Rose!"
Weiss rolled her eyes at that. "Blake is winning, Ruby...by a lot."
"Yes, Weiss, yes I am. And now…" Blake started before the win screen came up, "I've won again."
Ruby threw her arms up in the air and groaned. "Ugh...you've been practicing! I bet you have, haven't you?!"
Summer quietly chuckled at that and left the room, letting the girls enjoy the rest of the night together. "Yeah, we're all going to be just fine here."
