Iced Coffee Week is coming up! I've been wanting to do this for ages, but I never felt like there would be enough interest in such an unusual ship to do a whole ship week. As it is, it will probably just be me clogging up your feed with cringe, which is extremely on brand, though some of my creative friends who also enjoy terrible things are considering participating.

Anyway, some certain ships are having 3 separate events this year, which is really excessive, but if they can have 3, then surely my little trash ship can have one.

I chose these dates because this is the week leading up to my anniversary, and as you know, my husband and I cosplay Oobleck and Weiss, so they are meaningful to me. My OTP, my event, my dumb, self-inserty reasons. 😎 I am hoping the prompts are sufficiently vague. If you're thinking about participating or are just looking forward to consuming whatever weird crap I generate, let me know! Since I am hosting, I am planning to repost other submissions with permission from the artist or share them, depending on the platform. The tags are #icedcoffeerwbyweek and #icedcoffeerwbyweek2020.

Special thanks to @sorinshuto for making the pretty graphic and to @slytherinslittleprincess for making the combined Iced Coffee emblem. I appreciate you both so much! 💙💚

#IcedCoffeeRWBYweek Day 6: Seasons ❄☕

Before we got the retcon-that-wasn't-a-retcon that Atlas isn't remotely cold, my thought was that Weiss loved living in Vale because it actually has seasons, as opposed to Atlas, which is cold and snowy year round. This echoes my love of the Midwest after moving here from Louisiana, which is hot, humid, and disgusting all year round. I will gladly take snow over mosquitoes in January.

Anyway, I really love autumn! It's my husband's and my favorite season. I love the leaves, and he loves the cooler temperatures. That partly inspired this art, but I mainly got the idea from @slytherinslittleprincess, who suggested a cute apple picking date! It's easy to get all the high up apples when your boyfriend is 6'7" and lets you ride on his shoulders (and maybe if you use a summon to help, though in my AU, Weiss is not as instantly and exclusively proficient at summoning as she is in the show, and tends to focus more on advanced glyphs and dust usage instead).

I'm not sure what they'll do with all the apples. I feel like it's a big struggle to get Oobleck to consume anything besides coffee, cheap ramen, and cold ravioli out of the can. Maybe they'll bake an apple coffee cake? 💙💚

If you read this far, drop your favorite apple in the replies! Mine are Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, Jazz, and Granny Smith!

Dumb trivia: my husband is allergic to raw apples. We probably couldn't do this IRL.

#icedcoffeerwbyweek Day 7: New Outfits/Cosplay ❄☕

Just in time for Halloween, the scariest thing of all: an age gap ship! 👉🏻😎👉🏻

I've been wanting to draw this FOREVER. I can't tell you how many times @j_ammeson and I have cosplayed Oobleck and Weiss and been mistaken for Milo and Kida from Atlantis: the Lost Empire, but it's been enough times to inspire me to generate some Peak Cringe Content.

It's extra funny, since neither of us have ever even seen that movie. 😂

Dialogue:

☕: Explain to me again why you're making me wear this absurd get-up.

❄: Just trust me.

☕: (Where did you even find pants like this? Port's closet?)

❄: (Ew, no.)

#IcedCoffeeRWBYweek Day 5: Close ❄☕

I decided on this prompt because of something I noticed around when I first started watching RWBY: during the Mountain Glenn arc, Weiss is, for whatever reason, perpetually in Oobleck's business (and he in hers, to a lesser extent). Seriously, she's always right next to him, and it's kinda weird. 😏 I certainly don't believe any hints of shipping were intended, but their mutual proximity seemed to be a bit beyond Oobleck's interactions with the other girls, even taking into account his extended dialogue with Ruby. These scenes were probably meant to annoy Weiss, but they're fun to use as "evidence" of her supposed weird crush when I'm bantering with my fellow crackshippers.

As for the art itself, I randomly got a notification on Twitter for a poster for the movie Cordelia (no clue why I got it as I don't know the person and had never heard of the movie, but I'm glad I did). The tweet pointed out that you rarely see a woman in that dominant position, as it's usually the other way around, and I knew I wanted to use the pose for some Iced Coffee art. Fancops deride my ship for some imaginary "power dynamic," but I always imagine Weiss as the instigator in this pairing, and the reverse is actually super unappealing to me.

Also Weiss is barely 5 feet tall without her heels and Oobleck is 6'7", so she is definitely standing on one of her glyphs (or as @slytherinslittleprincess suggested, a stack of his comic books 😂) to reach that height.

I'm really pleased with this sketch and hope to do a digital version, too! I hope you like it, but if you hate it, that's even better~ 💙💚

#IcedCoffeeRWBYweek Day 4: Coffee ❄☕

She doesn't realize it, but *this* was the moment Weiss fell in love. 💙💚 Looking to the earlier volumes, her sense of humor is a bit...odd... so it works. Laughter can indicate comfort and safety, and that in turn can lead to love. Similar senses of humor are so important in a relationship. My husband and I both have a dumb sense of humor (if you've met us, you know this), so it's only natural that I'd reflect that in our cosplay counterparts (though that is kind of canon, too).

"Coffee" was an obvious prompt choice, perhaps too obvious. It is canon that Weiss likes coffee and has drunk it many times in the show. We also know that Oobleck has been keeping coffee in his thermos and not gasoline, meth, or way too many warmed up 5 Hour Energies, so I think they would bond over their shared love of the beverage. Oobleck does take it to an extreme, making his own custom blends from imported Vacuan beans, but Weiss has a refined palate, so she respects his efforts.

Dumb trivia time (all my headcanons)!

☆ Oobleck has a very fancy siphon in his office (pictured in the comic). It was a birthday gift from Professor Peach.

☆ Both take their coffee black. Oobleck thinks adding cream and sugar "ruins the integrity of the beans." Weiss tends to agree, but she doesn't mind the froo froo drinks on special occasions.

☆ Oobleck hated coffee as a student at Beacon and basically lived on energy drinks. He acquired a taste for it in grad school.

☆ [insert joke about coffee stunting your growth re: Weiss here]

Dialogue:

❄: So... How do you take your coffee?

☕: Intravenously~ 👉🏻😎👉🏻

#IcedCoffeeRWBYweek Day 3: Zwei! ❄☕

Cucked by a corgi. 🙃

Let's be clear, 90% of this ship is just Ruby wondering where her dog is. Seriously, Oobleck and Weiss are literally Zwei's two favorite people in canon (even if Weiss had to buy his love with dog treats). You know he ships it. 😏

Dialogue:

❄: Sometimes I think you love that dog more than you love me.

☕: That is an accurate assessment.

Bonus dumb stuff:

My husband and I recently started listening to 1984 on audiobook. I don't really like audiobooks since I've objected to being read to since I was 3, but they're easier for him, and I can tolerate them well enough. I am a very fast reader, so the audiobook helps us stay on track together, which makes it easier for us to discuss what's going on.

Here, Weiss is reading simply "84," since I like to think Remnant restarted their entire calendar after the Great War to mark the new era of peace. The actual year 84 is now a few years in the past for her.

And Oobleck's shirt says "Don't Touch My Bread, Government" because it amuses me.

#IcedCoffeeRWBYweek Day 1: Domestic ❄☕

Modern problems require modern solutions. For all his various achievements, this is Oobleck's galaxy brain moment.

My husband and I both HATE made beds. They always make me feel like I'm trapped, so we actually never make our bed at home. 😂 Pillow cases, fitted sheet, top sheet goes at the foot of the bed in case I want to use it, and our separate comforters. Yes, the cats get their own pillow, no, they don't use it because they'd rather use my pillow or just drape themselves over me.

Anyway, that's somewhere Weiss and I probably differ (aside from the fact that she's not real ayyyyeeee). Between having servants make her bed every morning and her sister's military influence, she'd probably love a freshly made bed. Meanwhile, her manchild slob of a boyfriend is of the [correct] opinion that made beds are stupid because you just have to unmake them to sleep. I honestly think Weiss brought this one on herself. What was she expecting??

While I do think this pairing would have very compatible personalities, I'm certain they'd butt heads over chores from time to time, with varying degrees of ridiculousness.

Text:

❄: I asked you to do one thing. One. To make the bed!

☕: I did!

❄: Then what's this supposed to be?

☕: Made beds are terrible, so I only made your half!
