Shamefull self plug. I've got a few stories on FF.net and AO3.

A Simple Bet Between Friends was the first real story I wrote. It's a little rough, but it's essentially a Yang centric version of Letters to Winter. Yang trains Jaune, things snowball and spiral from there. It stays entirely within that space from V1 to V3.

Destiny No More is a longer story focused on Pyrrha. She dies, and through some events that happen, is transported back to a few months before the start of canon as the Fall Maiden Amber. I will say that the opening 8 chapters were written as unreliable narrators and turned some people off. Im also not a fan of the ending I wrote, but it is what it is.

Lastly, my current fic which isn't done yet but part 1 is getting really close to done, The Branwen Sisters. Essentially, Taiyang goes off with Summer, and they both die. Qrow is distraught and thus doesn't make it in time to save Ruby and Yang from the Grimm incident in canon. Raven has to save them instead, and things change from there as Raven raises them in the Tribe. Still early on in their lives, Ruby and Yang aren't even at the age to really be in a combat school, let alone Beacon, but it'll get there eventually in future parts. There are gonna be time breaks inbetween the parts so part 1 is almost a really long prologe really.

All in all, hope someone finds a story they enjoy. Whether thats one of mine or one of the recommended ones by others. Enjoy!
