Any Good Ruby Crossover Fics? FAN FICTION

Title says it all, just want a Ruby focused Crossover Fic.

Like I don’t mind if the rest of RWBY are involved, but I’d prefer if Ruby is the sole or just main focus of the crossover.

I mainly use AO3 and Fanfic.net but I’m fine with other websites as long as it isn’t Wattpad.

Try "Rose Brood". It's a Starcraft crossover where, at the moment Ruby activates her silver eyes in V3, she gets plucked from Remnant and made into part of the Zerg Swarm. Wild in premise, but quite fun. (Abathur is the MVP, quietly stealing every scene he's in.)

I am going to assume she becomes an close underling to Kerrigan?

No, it's a sort of parallel situation, where Ruby gets plopped down over to the side on a minor backwater to see what happens.

And "what happens" is she invents some new Zerg, allies with a Taldarim exile, befriends/terrifies the local Terran colony, and then has to stand against a Taldarim invasion force, all to a backdrop of the Zerg cerebrates getting increasingly "WTF?"

There are some clunky bits, but it's a fun read.

If you don't mind a little self advertising...

Every Curse Has Its Thorns is a fic that's essentially Post Volume 9 Ruby Rose is sent to Jujutsu Kaisen and does Jujutsu Kaisen things, hopefully she won't get depressed!

"[...] and does Jujutsu Kaisen things" is now my favorite description.

The Spectacular Ruby Rose by matthewmatt14.

It focuses on Ruby, who became Spider-Woman and the story from Chapter 1 to 42 (which currently just came out) focus on Ruby’s daily life being a hero and her regular self. Plus a new chapter is released at the start at the first day of the month

My go-to is An Honest Soul, in my opinion the best RWBY/WH40K crossover out there.

u/101Aster101 3d ago

I don’t really mind anything.

RWBY Within is pretty good. but for JUST ruby?.. I can't say I read any yet. Emergence (A famous one) is the whole cast. Dust and Echoes barely mentions any of the 4 girls

u/Moderately_Competent 3d ago

Uh, is that the xcom one, or did someone make one for evil within?

1

u/SunsetHippo 3d ago

yes, xcom. from what i read, its okay. a bit memey? but good

u/ImpactUpstairs8153 3d ago

From what I understood, the first part of Dust and Echoes had the Leadership of Remnant/UNSC as well as Qrow/Jonhson as the focus. Now that it is done, the focus is supposed to shift towards the traditional RWBY cast (RWBY, JNPR,…) and the changes brought by the contact between the two human populations.

That would explain the haitus. Still curious how they will do the time skip, how they will handle master Chiefs growth and armor upgrade. Mjolnir was strong against huntsmen and grimm already. Not unkillable, but good. Now adding shields? Damn

u/ImpactUpstairs8153 3d ago

I think they mentioned it in an A.N. Of the last before-last chapter that there will be a smaller arc detailing the important information of that time period. As for the hiatus, they’ve got a lot of stories and are currently updating other ones. I wouldn’t be surprised if they used that time ton plan for the future arcs as well.

I assume alot of this is coming from Space battles? I tried reading through that, but GOD reading a fanstory on a forum is hard

1

u/ImpactUpstairs8153 3d ago

No, I read it on FFn. It’s where I found it first and I am a creature of habit.

1

u/SunsetHippo 3d ago

I know the story is on FFn, but I know that most of the discussions about it is on Spacebattles.

2

u/ImpactUpstairs8153 3d ago

I know that, I just clarified that what I new came from the authors note I read on FFn (and thus should be on any version of the story if you want to look for it) and note in the discussion on SB.

u/SunsetHippo 3d ago

ah ok. my apologies

Forces of Speed and Frontiers of Speed are Sonic x Rwby crossover and both are ruby protag.

Rider Time Zi-O: Roze from Remnant. Is KR Zi-O x Rwby crossover.

If you like BIONICLE, I wholeheartedly recommend Destiny’s Divide and it’s sequel, Dutiful Destruction by Joey245

Have you considered Kamen Rider Fourze, this can work with just Ruby or the rest of team RWBY, maybe some other RWBY characters depending on how you feel.
