The Crown is Never Wrong (Father's Day)
Papa Arc: *Sighs* What a long day
Jaune's father says when he returns from a busy day at work. He walks into the living room and sees a crown on the coffee table.
Papa Arc: What is this? A crown?
He takes the crown, looks at it carefully and puts it on.
Vision:
Jaune and her dad are driving through the woods towards a camping area.
Grandpa Arc: Thanks for taking me camping, son.
Jaune: No problem dad.
Grandpa Arc: I just wish my grandkids would have come too.
Jaune: I know.
They keep driving until they come to a huge cabin. So big that the whole Arc family could fit.
Grandpa Arc: Son, this is not the campsite.
Jaune: Just follow me.
Jaune gets out of the car and goes to the entrance of the cabin. Grandpa Arc sits in there for a while, trying to figure out what his son is doing, until he loses sight of him as he enters the house.
Grandpa Arc: My Oum, it's always something with this boy.
Grandpa Arc gets out of the car, and walks to the cabin. Upon reaching the door, he slowly opens it and…
Grandpa Arc: Hello?
Everyone: Happy Father's Day Grandpa!
Grandpa Arc: *Surprise* Holy shit!
Dragonslayer Kid: *Chuckles* Grandpa said a bad word.
Penny's Kid: Grandpa you must put a dollar in the swear jar
Nora's Kids: "Why do you say bad words grandpa, shit." "Yes grandpa, what the fuck?" "I wanna say fuck too!" "FUCK!"
Arcfall Kid: SHUT UP YOU IDIOTS!
Topaz kid: Damn, take it easy
Whiteknight Kid's: *laughing hard*
Grandpa Arc: *Chuckles* Those kids never change.
Winter's Kid: "Grandpa why don't you sit down" "Yes, sit!"
Grandpa Arc: Oh thank you.
He follows the two children and sits in a very comfortable chair.
ArcWitch Kid: Do you want something to drink, grandfather? Water, iced tea?
Grandpa Arc: Iced tea please.
Belladonna Kid's: *Holding an Iced tea* "Here it is, grandpa!"
Grandpa Arc: Thank you.
Lancaster Kid's: "Grandpa, can you tell us a story?" "Please"
Jessica's kid: "Me too!"
Vixen Kid's: "We also have food, grandpa!" "We made turkey sandwiches!"
May's kid: I bring you a plate!
Grandpa Arc: Thank you. *To his son* So this was your plan?
Jaune: I also planned for Saphron to be here but she's stuck in traffic. She will be here in about 20min. So just enjoy.
Grandpa Arc: Thank you son.
Jaune: No problem dad.
Vision ended.
Papa Arc: Honey, where's Jaune?! I need to talk to him man to man! The Arc bloodline will be eternal!

Actor Au 5
Actor au 4 <-
Ruby:🎶Guess who’s back? Back again. *flips camera*
Adam:Not me! *thumbs up* Let’s get to filming! Wooo!
Crew:Wooooooo!
xxxxx
Ruby:Well look who it is, back at the food table.
Yang:*bites doughnut* It’s 5am on a beach. The sun is down and so is my body temperature.
Ruby:At least you don’t have to be near the water. Happy to be back?
Yang:Hell yeah. Let’s get this shit.
xxxx
Interviewer:How’s it feel to be back on screen after so long.
Ozpin:Pretty shocked if I’m being honest, but in a good way. I got so used to cozy pjs and being a voice. Roman walks over and goes “We’ll shoot your scene tomorrow.” I look around and go “pardon?” and he nods. Just goes “yeah you and your son shoot tomorrow.
Oscar:He’s downplaying his excitement.
Interview:Were you excited?
Oscar:I read what my scene was and had to double check if my contract had expired.
Ruby:Thought it was your last episode?
Oscar:Yes! You literally came up to me and said “ready for me to kill you?” Keep in mind, we don’t film everything in order. Luckily I finally got briefed.
Ruby:It felt appropriate because Ozpin looked at me with pure joy and and said “Finally I get to fight you.”
xxxxx
Director:Alright Neo, you’re just getting from the crash and you are seething. And… Action.
Neo:*stands up*….FUCK!
Director:Cut! Neo!!
Neo:I know! I know! *snickers* Could you imagine though?
xxxxxx
Weiss:*throws fake rock*
Another prop rock comes in off screen and misses her completely, hitting Blake.
Blake:Oh shi-
Weiss:…*turns around* Nora, how?
Nora:*covering face* I don’t know how I missed.
Blake:You curved ball a rubber rock. I’m not even hurt; only impressed.
xxxxx
Blake:I can’t believe it! The Rusted Knight, in person!
Jaune:You did well JNPR. *slowly lefts helm-
Helmet gets stuck.
Jaune:…*keeps helmet on, nods, walks away*
Ruby and Yang: *wheezing*
Blake:W-Wait! We..pfft..*drops to knees* tell us who you are hahaha.
Weiss:Did it snag the beard?
Jaune:A hundred percent!!
*Bloop!*
Jaune:*removes helmet*…..I just yanked out some beard hair I’m sorry. *eyes watering*
Coco: *off screen* Let me trim it down just a little!!!
xxxxx
Ruby:When they told this volume would have a focus on Ruby’s crumbling emotional state I was excited. I barely get to play with negative emotions often so I was ready! However, I was not prepared for Jaune to have to grow out his hair.
Jaune:Hahaha!
Ruby:Do you understand how hard it is to maintain sad vibes when in rehearsal this guy is walking around in a man bun!?
Interviewer:So the hair was all real?
Jaune:Yeah I originally got a call from Adam who asked if I knew anyone who could pull off an older version of myself. Instantly I went to my dad, however, I did not know at the time my character would be old for the majority of the volume. Love my dad, but he can’t fake act through a volume. Second best option was growing out my hair and hitting the gym.
Adam:We basically shot all of his scenes when he was young at once so long ago at this point. Then during vacation and all that in between volumes this man was obligated to not cut his hair as much as possible. My sister, Coco, did practical makeup to add age as well.
Jaune:Never again.
Interviewer:Fans like the look!
Jaune:Oh I get it. It’s the mainly the beard I wouldn’t want again. All the lights are fire scenes were soooo hot! I was dying!
xxxx
Blake:You named them after your team?
Jaune:No. I named them after everyone.
Everyone looks at where the paper pleaser would be.
Paper Pleaser:Hello. I am the one they call Jessica.
Ruby:Jessi- You met her once! Ya gotta let go!
Jaune:I can’t! 😢
xxxxx
Nora:Get a load of this. *turns camera*
Penny and Oscar:* sharing food*
Nora:They’re like magnets to each other I swear.
xxxxx
Blake:*sips coffee* Get this, today is the big day. The amazing crew has built a simple rope bridge only a couple feet off the ground. Yang is currently finding the courage to stand on it.
Yang:LISTEN! Rope bridges are scary!
Weiss:You aren’t actually high in the sky!
Yang:Rickety bridges strew me out.
Ruby:Should’ve confessed sooner.
Weiss:Imagine getting confessed to because that person is avoiding a fear? The instant they get on the bridge Yang folds.
Ruby:The true love was the solid ground we had along the way.
xxxxx
Interviewer: Let’s talk about the kiss! How’d that go?
Blake:*deflates* I have a complicated relationship with that scene for two reasons! One is you, Yang.
Yang:I may have tripped or had to fix my hair because the wind was aggressive! Your beef isn’t with me, it’s the weather!
Blake:She’s right. It came out perfectly, the shot. However, that’s a real sunset. It took so many days for the weather to be good enough! The two of us are trying to stay warm while look at each other lovingly.
Yang:Meanwhile she’s shooting daggers into my soul going “I’m begging you to get this right. I am cold.” Sometimes you sneezed.
Blake:I wanted to cry. Bright side, I got to kiss this lovely lady finally.
Yang:D’aaaww
Interviewer:Speaking of that, Yang, your character onset and yourself offset would probably have some interesting words to each other given…
A picture is pulled up on a screen that makes Blake laugh while Yang blush, giving an embarrassing smile. It’s a picture from her social media where she’s on Adam’s shoulders at the beach.
Yang:W-What can I say? I’m winning at life.
xxxxx
Pyrrha:*getting dressed* Hmm Hmm Hmm 🎶
Weiss:Someone is happy to be back.
Pyrrha:It’s pretty funny how every three volumes I come back to serve trauma and leave. Honestly make me the villain at this point.
Penny:Today is beat Ruby day. *thumbs up*
James: A glorious day indeed.
Ruby:Sometimes I feel like my friends and coworkers aren’t telling me something about themselves. Everyone is a little too enthusiastic.
Neo:*stretching*
Weiss:For those who don’t know, Neo over here does most of Ruby’s stunts, but now she’s pulling double duty again.
Neo:I love how there’s a narrative that my character is this brilliant fighter. In truth, most times I’m told to fight Ruby I let them know ahead of time one of us better be losing badly.
Ruby:I’ve gotten better at complex choreography!
Neo:And I’m very proud of you. *pats head* prepare to be tossed around like a rag doll.
xxxxx
Jaune:Ever wonder who’s doing the creepy motion capture for the Jabberwalker? *points left*
Tyrian:*in mo-cap suit* Greetings…
Jaune:Easily scarier than his normal clothes.
xxxxx
Jaune:*doing pull ups*
Weiss:*watching*
Yang:Hehe, what’s going on over here?
Weiss:I’m getting into character. I take my job very seriously.
xxxxx
[punderstorm scene]
Ruby:*walking*
Weiss:*sees Atlas*
Jaune: *looks into water*
Jessica slowly fades in.
Weiss:What the- *face palms*
Ruby:*laughing* When did you guys find the time!? Is she sneaking on set?
Jaune: *In character* I wonder how she’s doing these days?
xxxxx
Jessica:Nora snuck me in early to watch the setup process for résumé. Learned a lot about audio and video. More than I should.

Harlequinade: Offering
Jessica: I crossed dimensions just to see you.
Pyrrha: I defeated the Brothers in the afterlife to be here.
Ilia: I... uh... okay, I'm not as powerful as they are, but I can give you something they can't.
Pyrrha (curious, challenging): Oh?
Ilia: I can give you my lesbian gold star.
Jaune: *intrigued*
Pyrrha: *bicurious*
Jessica: If... if make out with Pyrrha first, would that... I mean?..
Ilia: You can't get a gold star just by being bicurious.
Pyrrha: *still looking at her salaciously*
Ilia: You have to be a lifelong lesbian.
Pyrrha (to Jessica): Mayhap bronze?
Ilia: It's not about effort, as it's entirely possible to be a lesbian, and a complete failure at being a lesbians. Look, the point is, I've never felt anything like this with a man other than Jaune. It changed who I am at my very core.
. . .
Ilia: I can also throw in race-play.
Pyrrha: *even more curious*
Jessica: Yellow play.
Jaune: I... I'm not... I mean...
Jessica: Green lanterns lose their powers to the colour yellow.
Jaune: . . .
Jessica: What did you think I meant?
Jaune (nervously): I... I didn't...
Jaune: *looks at Jessica and Pyrrha*
Jaune: I'm honoured, but...
Jaune: *looks at Ilia*
Jaune: She's just so cute.
Pyrrha: I just want to eat her up. I would like to propose a compromise.
Pyrrha: *looks at Jessica and then Ilia*
Pyrrha: Some of us will have to compromise more than other.
Jessica: *incredibly nervous*
Ilia: That's not exactly a drawback.
Pyrrha (giddily): Then, are we agreed?
Penny 3.0: I don't mean to interrupt, but...
Jessica: And how exactly did she come here?
Penny 3.0: Oh, she's been a fantastic friend.
Jessica: In... the afterlife?..
Pyrrha: I'm sorry, but were kind of trapped. Forced to watch as you wage your war.
Penny 3.0: She's not complaining.
Penny 3.0 (to Jaune): So, anyway I can be compromised as well?
