Halfway past this undertaking, Ruby and Weiss discover more about each other. Is it a possible White Rose or just a casual friendship? There is only one way to find out.

8. Rude Demon RWBY FF (Ruby ? x Weiss ❄ - Mark ((@markxuvs)

Main Characters: Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Yang Xiao Long, Blake Belladonna, Velvet

Mark knows just the right buttons to push to White Rose fandom. He has a knack for stringing words and keeping every reader at the edge of their seats, thanks to his exceptional mastery of storytelling. He has seven works-a few ongoing-and has etched his name among the greats with Little Filthy Mundane Days, There's Magic In My Heart and Rude Demon.

This Weiss x Ruby RWBY fanfiction is about Weiss, new at Beacon Academy, discovering a boy and falling for him. To her rude shock, she's wrong about his gender, and it's actually a girl named Ruby. As they navigate their romantic life, Weiss' father becomes abusive upon realizing the nature of their friendship. Not so many White Rose creations knock this story off its perch as the author weaves different writing elements like humor and sarcasm that keep readers engaged.

7. Surprising Intimacy - Hellsshipwright

Main Characters: Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, Yang Xiao Long

HellsShipWright seemingly likes to keep it to himself-he's private. But we're just amazed by what he likes to share with his fans: his writings. With 11 stories for One Piece, Dragon Age and Mass Effect, he's the undercover master of fanfiction. This author also has a fair share of RWBY fanfic and has tasted the waters with Surprising Intimacy, resulting in a hit.

Surprising Intimacy is a short, three-chapter story that unfolds a romance between Ruby and Weiss. Ruby persuades Weiss to help her with her highlights and discover their feelings for each other. You'll truly love this sweet but tasty story if you've been expecting more White Rose stories.

6. RWBY: Second Chance at Happyness - TraceZaraki03 (@TraceZaraki03)

Main Characters: Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Velvet, Winter

TraceZaraki03 understands the fanfic writing craft pretty well and the creativity it demands. The author takes readers to a different universe, a world of adult RWBY. This fanfic writer has six works, some ongoing, and includes RWBY: Marry Christmas and Full Moon, which depict Ruby Rose as a wolf Faunus.

Second Chance At Happyness follows a 24-year-old Weiss Schnee in an abusive marriage. Her husband hits her, uses her as a sex toy, and ends up in a hospital where she meets a 23-year-old Ruby Rose. They hit it off, and she provides her an escape, a second shot at happiness. Redemption and romance are some of the themes alive in this story, and we guarantee that this White Rose will move you.

5. RWBY: Full Moon - TraceZaraki03 (@TraceZaraki03)

Main Characters: Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Yang Xiao Long, Qrow

Another TraceZaraki03 story in a spin makes this list complete. Please cut us some slack for giving this writer two spots on our list (tongue-in-cheek); he deserves high praise for the work done. Let's get down to the specifics.

Unlike Second Chance at Happyness, Full Moon is subtly a Grimm story flipped on its back. Ruby, a wolf Faunus-werewolf and Weiss, an angel-knight, don't thrive on fear and destruction but love and adoration, a White Rose story that's driven fans head over heels. This subtly confusing nature of the story will keep you engrossed.

4. Ruby x Weiss - JayxJessxRose (@JessBranwen)

Main Characters: Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Yang Xiao Long, Blake Belladonna

This five-chapter long redefines "short and sweet" and is a Jess Branwen story, a legendary fanfic writer with 48 works. He's authored an original, the Whispers That Dies, but is also into fanfic, with works like Time Spent Writing and spoiler-filled RWBY stories gracing his timeline.

Ruby x Weiss may not be a more defined title for fan fiction, but you'll truly understand why he prefers things that way if you read the story. The narrative begins with Ruby waking up to find Weiss in her arms, with no memory of how they ended up together. As they navigate their relationship, they must confront the events of the previous night, which involved a mysterious scream and a dead body. Fancy a read? This story should do it.

3. Cold as Weiss +18 - GasmSenpai (@GasmSenpai)

Doesn't Cold As Weiss feel the same as Cold As Ice? Impeccable creativity there, GamsSenpai. This fanfic author has created works like Exquisitely Yours and Romance Of The Silver Eye, effortlessly grabbing the third spot on our list with Cold As Weiss +18.

This Ruby x Weiss fan art combines Jacques Schnee's runaway life in Vale with character-driven scenarios. The romance theme is more visible through her association with Ruby, giving readers a steamy and raunchy narration. It's dialog-driven storytelling, so expect a casual and easy-going tone.

2. The Bloodstained Rose - Sapphire_Darkhouse (@Sapphire_Darkhouse)
