I was really happy went I saw that the sun came back and the snow melted away. Qo on the other hand was sad to see it go but that didn’t last long as the flowers started to come up. She now loves to run around in a field of flowers.

Over the months since Forever free was open the Village nearby got bigger over time. It was now almost twice as big than I first came here and more trading happens from nearby towns and villages. This made Zecora happy and, oddly, so did Tak. Speaking of Tak Blake and me convince Weiss to tell him her feeling and… well, their together… after finally getting them out of their rooms.

Right now was after school and both Yang, Ruby, and I were laying out in the sun getting some light. Yang was wearing a yellow bikini top with some back shorts as if she was about to go running. I was wearing wearing the same kind only a red flaming top and some running pants. Ruby had a simple red tank-top and some gray shorts on.

“Why am I here?” Ruby asked.

“Because we’re bonding.” Yang said with a laugh.

“We’re simply laying here.” Ruby countered.

“Yang needed to get away from her other for a bit and she would only go if you came as well.” I told her.

“Ohhh.” was all Ruby said. The three of us laid there before Yang spoke.

“Did you all hear that there’s a talent competition coming up?” Yang said.

“No, why is there a talent competition?” I asked.

“Something about a Gala in a few months. Winner will go with Headmistress Zecora and the professors to it with their friends.” Yang explained. “You think we should ask Weiss?”

“Don’t know… maybe?” I told her. I turned a bit before speaking. “So how goes it with the two of you Yang?”

“Oh fun, very fun.” Yang said with a laugh. “Though I wonder what she would be like as a male?”

“You haven’t seen Sanns yet?” I asked, sitting up. Yang pushed herself up and turned to me.

“Nope, guess it never came up, well mostly him more younger.” Yang put her chin on her hand. “I can kinda imagine it and ohh~, I would be in his arms in a heartbeat.”

“You are kinda jumping into this real well Yang.” Ruby said as she sat up. Yang looked at her sister before her happy smile turned somber.

“Well yeah, sure it’s really fun but…” she blushed a bit more then before. “I’m… really like them.”

Staring at Yang a bit I sensed there was more going on. “You… okay?”

“Yeah… I just… had a really bad nightmare two nights ago.” Yang said as she sat cross legged. “Mavis was there for me and… I slept in her arms after.”

“Yang…” Ruby said before giving her sister a hug. Yang smile before hugging Ruby back.

“Thanks Ruby.” Yang said as I stared.

“You know, the way you talk about them, it sounds like you’re in love.” I told her. Yang took a moment to think about it before nodding.

“If you put it that way… yeah.” Yang chuckled a bit. “I’m in love.”

“Ohh, I’m so proud of you~!” Ruby said as she gave her sister a bigger hug.

“Oh wow, Ruby… kind choking me.” Yang tried to say.

“Sorry.” Ruby said as she pulled away.

“It’s fine.” Yang said as she laid back. She pushed her sunglasses down as she laid there.

“Well I’m happy that you found your one true love.” I said with a snicker.

“You make it sound like a fairytale.” Yang pointed out. From the corner of my eyes I spotted Father, though now he looked younger, almost as if he attended the school. He wore a pair of dress pants and the school uniform top for men. He walked over to Yang before stopping beside her, he smiled down at her.

“Perhaps it is fairy tale, with you being the princess.” He said with a little chuckle. Yang frown a little.

“Who are you calling Princess-” Yang stopped to see Father standing there. “Hello~ sexy.”

“Smooth Yang, smooth.” I said as Ruby giggled. Yang slowly stood up and took off her sunglasses.

“Ah well, yes, hey there… Sanns was it?” Yang asked as she blushed some more. “I-I-I know your name, it's Sanns… yes, that's it.” she muttered the last bit.

“Yes, for now that is the name I go by.” He said, before giving Yang a kiss on the cheek. “Did you miss me?” He asked. Over the past few months he has been coming and going back home, having not gotten used having so much free time. It seems now he's slowly getting accustomed to it.

“I bet she did~” I purred at the two of them. Ruby sniffled a bit.

“Our Yang has gone and fallen in love with a Prince… the land is saved.” Ruby said playfully.

“You guys!” Yang said with a blush on her cheeks. She looked at the two of us as we giggling.

“Not so fun being the one getting teased huh?” Ruby said. Yang looked over at me with a frown.

“Remember that I can still beat you if you-eep!” Yang eeped when she felt Fathers hand on her bare shoulder. She turned back at him smiling warmly.

“They're just playing around, no need for threats.” Father said before looking at both me and Ruby. “Where is little Qo?” He asked.

“Qo is with Indigo and Blake. She wants to see… how does she say it? Indi’s ‘shadow work’ and Blake's ‘make more of herself’.” I told him with a giggle. “She's so cute.”

“She is.” Ruby said before crossing her arms. “But she ate my cookies…”

“Ruby, that was me.” I said.

“You ate my cookies!” Ruby yelled suddenly. I put my hands up in defence.

“Hey hey, I'll buy you some more.” I told her quickly. Ruby glared at me for a bit.

“You better or else no snuggles or pets for you.” Ruby warned. My eyes went wide at this.

“Oh come on Ruby, don't you think that's a little too far…” I said with a nervous voice.

“No, it's not.” she said.

“And that's my friend, is karma.” Yang said with a laugh. Father laughed as well before reaching into the pocket of his pants, pulling out a small wrapped box.

“For Qo, a gift from me.” He said, handing it to me. I looked at him with a curious glance. “I know it's not her birthday but I have been working on the gift for quite some time now and I think she'll love it.” Father said smiling. I smiled before taking the package.

“Thanks, I'll give it to her when I see her. Oh, and she's learning how to speak better!” I said happily. I figured he already knows but it's nice to say it to Father.

“And here I was getting used to speaking within the Dovah’s tongue.” Father said with a small laugh as he wrapped an arm around Yang. Yang smiled and rest her head on his shoulder.

“So… what do you want to do handsome?” Yang purred. Father smirked at this but said nothing before looking back at me.

“When you do find Qo, let me know, I want to be there when she's the gift I got her.” He said with a smile. I smiled and nodded as I looked at the box, wondering what it is.

“What's is it?” Yang asked.

“Don't know, don't have X-ray vision.” I said. I turned the box over a bit to look at it before standing up. “Let's go find Qo.” Yang and Father nodded while Ruby stood up. The four of us when off searching for my daughter, fortunately, we didn't have to look very far as by simply walking into the halls of the school, Qo was spotted atop a miniature Nevermore happily flying through the halls, giving the passing students a sight to see. Luckily after spending time with Sylph and Oni, seeing a small Nevermore isn't the strangest sight.

I gave Qo a wave which had her land in front of us.

“Hi Mommy! Hi Bormahsebormah!” she greeted. [Grandfather!]

“Hi sweetie, having fun?” I asked as the Nevermore started picking at it feathers. At a closer look I saw it was more shadowy than a normal one.

“Yes, I got Mister Indi to make a shadow bird!” Qo said happily. The Nevermore cawed at this, opening its wings and before dissipating. “Aww.”

I chuckled at her before pulling the box out into my hands. Qo saw this and got more interested.

“This is from your Grandfather.” I told her, handing the box over. Qo looked at Father to see if was true, to which she received a nod.

“It is something I made just for you, little Qo.” He said as he smiled down at her. Qo happily started to open the box. Soon a clear orb came out of it. It was the size of a small head as it rolled around.

“A clear...ball?” Yang asked as she stares at the orb. Father chuckled as Qo looked at the orb before grabbing it. As soon as her hands touched it bolts of electricity shot out from within the orb. The bolts of electricity focusing on Qo’s hands as she held the ball.

“With this orb, Qo, you are able to channel your abilities and display an image from within your mind.” Father said this as the electricity within formed into an orb that grew before an image of all of us, sitting together sharing a lovely feast was displayed inside the orb. Indigo and Blake were there with Iilah in between them, they were smiling and laughing happily. Weiss was there as well as Tak, the two smiled as they enjoyed the moment. Father and Yang were there also, sitting next to me while I sat next to Qo, who in turn was sitting next Ruby.

Qo smiled happily as she played around with the image. I smiled happily as the images shifted to different ones. One was the time we played in the snow, another her flying around on the Shadow Nevermore. There was one of her and Ruby reading a book.

“I see you like the gift, little one.” Father said to Qo, bringing her attention away from the orb. Qo smiled as the image changed to that of her holding the orb, playing with it. She set the orb down, going back to it's clear state, before getting up and hugging Father.

“Nox hi.” she said to him. [Thank you.] Father crouched down before hugging back, smiling the whole time before saying.

“Naan fah dii mal lotkiir.” He whispered to her in a comforting manner. [Anything for my little granddaughter]

Qo smiled before pulling away from Father and picked the orb back up, having the electricity come back as she simply stared at it happily. Her tail wagging happily from this making me chuckle. I felt Ruby rest her head on my shoulder before I rest my head on top of hers.

It wasn't long before we were walking down the hallway, after Father handed me and Yang a shirt after a number of other students were staring at us.

“Jeez has nobody here seen a girl in a bikini top before?” Yang grumbled as she put on the shirt.

“I do not think that's the case. Most of the men and some of the women are simply ogling at the both of you.” Father said with a shrug. His current voice will take time for me to get used to, I just never imagined Father or Mother for that matter to act like they are now. He smirked before wrapping an arm around Yang and pulling her close, bringing a giggle from the blonde as a result. “While enjoy staring at the beauty of Yang, I cannot stand them doing so to my daughter.” He said.

“My thoughts the same.” We all turned to Ruby as she said that. “What?”

“Aww, you care about me.” I said as I gave her a hug. Ruby blushed at this as Yang laughed a bit. As we walked we pasted two teachers. Both of them noticed Father and stared for a moment before continuing on as if nothing happened. I looked back and saw the two of them going a little faster than before.

“It seems that you're drawing the other kind attention now.” I whispered to Father.

“Hmm, so it seems.” He said just above a whisper.

“You think that's going to be a problem?” I asked him.

“If it's a problem then they have to deal with me.” Yang said as she butted into our conversation. Father simply smiled before giving a peck on the cheek, appreciating her words. As we were walking we past a few students talking.

“I heard there was a new shop opening in a day or two.”

“Yeah, I seen some neat stuff through the windows. What was it called?”

“ I believe it's 'Mal Kun shop’ isn't there a student with that last name?”

Both me and Father and stopped at that and looked at each other.

“You don't think…” I asked him.

“Sister.” He said, though not as surprised as I thought he would be. “Perhaps we should visit her sometime, it has certainly been a while.” It was then that a question came to mind.

“Have you told her about Yang?” I asked him. He glanced at me with a questioning hum. “Did you tell her about you and Yang?” I asked him. He thought about this before ultimately shaking his head.

“I'm afraid not. I suppose I must've forgotten.” He said, adding the last bit to himself. Yang heard this and looked up at him before saying.

“What about your sister?” She asked, wanting to know what we were talking about.

“My aunt and his sister.” I answered. “It seems that your boyfriend forgot to tell her about you two.”

“Oh…” her confused features slowly to a mischief smirk. “I guess I've been keeping him busy~”

“I will not deny that.” Father said chuckling a little with a smirk of his own. “In all seriousness, perhaps I should introduce her to you.” He suggested. As he was talking to Yang I glanced over to Qo who was still playing with her orb.

“You want to come see your Aunt?” I asked her. She looked up at me and nodded happily. “Alright then, onwards!”

After spending some time looking around we finally found the shop aunt Axycia owns. It was a two story place with dark wood walls and some brick roofing. The most interesting part was that it looked like it grew out of the ground, with roots digging into the ground at the bottom of the place. The door was open but a little sign was hanging out beside the doorway saying ‘Can come look around but no buying until after the store opens. Thanks!’

“Wow… this place is something.” Yang said as she looked at the place.

“It fits into the style of the town.” Father said, tilting his head at the building and crossed his arms. I nodded as I saw Qo walking into the store.

“Qo!” I yelled as I ran in after her. As I came in I saw that… the whole place was bigger, and I mean bigger inside. There was wall to wall bookshelves that seemed to go higher than the building itself. A number of tables of different items and trinkets laid out on them and some stairs leading up to a second floor. The place was lit with floating everburning candles that seemed to float around in the air. There was an air of old forgotten knowledge if you can call it that, as well as something new. As everyone walked in and looked around I saw Qo looking at what I can tell is some sort of Lava lamp.

“Wow… it’s like we stepped into a whole new world…” Ruby said as she looked around.

“Yeah…” Yang said as she looked at the tables. “Half of the things here I don’t even know what they are.”

I nodded as I walked over to pick Qo up. She is still holding on to her orb as we looked around. Soon a man came walking in with a box in hand. He noticed all of us and stopped.

“Um, excuse me but ah, the store isn’t open yet.” said the man… or woman, I couldn’t tell. They had long dirty blonde hair with some braids in it. Their features were both male and female as I saw some fins coming off their arms. I watched them put the box down as everyone else walks up. Yang looked at the Faunus with an odd expression, one that the Faunus noticed. “Is there something wrong?”

“Huh? Oh sorry, it’s just… are you male or female?” Yang asked. The Faunus simply chuckled.

“I understand the confusion, but if you don’t mind to simply think I’m a Genderfluid being.” they explained before adding. “So ‘They, Them, Their’ is most likely be the right pronouns.”

“Pardon us for our intrusion but we were are looking for Axycia Mal Kun.” Father said, stepping up beside Yang.

“Oh it’s fine, there were a few that came in here before. Kinda a mandatory thing for me to say.” the store clerk said with a smile. “I’ll go see if she’s busy.”

With that, they headed up the stairs and disappear into the building. As we waited I saw Yang fidget a bit in nervosity.

“You okay?” I asked her. Yang looked at me and nodded.

“Yeah… just, nervous for some reason.” she answered. Father glanced at her with an arched brow.

“There's no reason to be nervous, love.” He said, grasping Yang’s hand. Yang smiled at him before the sound of a door opening as my Aunt came in out of nowhere. She was wearing a old dark blue and purple robe with gold stars on it. She had her hair done up in some braids with colourful beads in it. She smiled happily as she extends her arms.

“Welcome to my shop!” she greeted everyone as I put Qo down for her to run over to her.

“Aunty!” Qo said happily. Axycia laughed as she gave Qo a hug.

“Hello there little one. How is my favorite niece?” she asked happily. Qo smiled as she tried to start talking but Ruby came over to pick her up.

“I found some cool stuff over here.” she said as she brought Qo over to a table as Axycia looked at the three of us.

“Hello you three.” She said before looking at her brother. “You look younger.” Father nodded at this.

“It is a new look, one I quite enjoy.” He replied with a smile. Aunty arches a brow at him before moving around to the other side of the counter.

“Well… it looks nice. A little odd but nice.” she said before looking at us. “So, what can I do for you?”

“I’m fine here, it’s those two you have to ask.” I said as I nodded to Father and Yang. Yang frowned at me before saying.

“So… do you want to say it or should I?” Yang asked Sanns. Sanns simply gestured Yang to do it as Yang took a deep breath. “Okay… so, the two of us, your brother and I, are dating.”

There was silence between the three of them as Axycia stared at Yang. After a minute or two she started laughing. We all looked at eachother confused before she spoke.

“That’s funny. Good joke.” Axycia said with a smile before chuckling.

“You… don’t believe me.” Yang asked, sounding a little hurt.

“No offence to my brother but he’s a bit of a stick in the mud. I haven’t seen him get together with… well anyone or being since we were born.” Axycia explained before looking at her brother. “Right.”

“Sister, that was not a joke.” Father said to Axycia. Axycia slowly blinks at him before pointing at Father than at Yang.

“You two.” Father nodded. “Together.” Yang and Father nodded. “For real.”

“Yes, why is it so hard to-whoa!” Yang was then pulled over the counter into Axycia arms as she hugged.

“YOU’RE MY MOST FAVORITE BEING EVER!” Axycia giggled happily as she was hugging Yang. She let the blonde go before continuing. “And here I thought he would never go out out dating. But man he has good taste!”

Yang blinked at this before looking at me. I simply shrugged at her.

“You seem awfully happy about this.” Father said curiously with an arched brow. Axycia rolled her eyes at him.

“I was always worried that you would be alone for the longest of times.” she said before smiling. “I’m happy you finally found someone you care about.” Father smiled at this before saying.

“Thank you.” He said with a smile. Both him and Yang stood close together before Yang spoke.

“Yeah, here I thought you would be not happy with us.” Yang said sheepishly.

“Me? Nah, I’m happy with you two.” my aunt said before adding. “Uhh, you do know that Sanns can… you know… change?”

“Huh? Oh yeah it’s fine I can go both ways.” Yang said before smirking at Sanns. “I do have to say that Mavisath is really fun~”

Aunt Axycia looked at her brother before asking. “Fun? What do you mean fun? What did I miss?” With a happy sigh, Father explained to her how he no longer has to focus solely on governing the Dovahs, how the halfling children he helped raise have grown into capable leaders that, to return the favor of taking care of them, had decided to keep the realm in check and to notify Father of any major changes or incidents that may require his presence.

“And now, I have all the time in existence to enjoy myself.” Father finished his long explanation with a bright smile on his face.

“Well that’s great! Happy that you now have the knowledge of ‘Free time’.” she chuckled before looking off into the store. “I somewhat hear wedding bells~”

“What?! Oh nonononono we’re not… I mean… umm…” Yang blushed a bit before Axycia cut her off.

“Dear I’m playing with you, like you I love to tease others with stuff.” she said before smiling warmly at Yang. “Just be happy with him. Okay?”

Yang simply nodded slowly before wrapping her arm around Father’s. She slowly smiled at him as he smiled back. He smiled back before facing me.

“Too be honest, I'm currently thinking on it.” He said. My eyes widened as Yang looked at him.

“Wait what?!” she asked. Axycia looked at us before making a seat appear and a bag of popcorn. She started to munch on this as she watched.

“Did I upset you?” Father asked her with a bit of worry in his tone. Yang quickly shook her before saying.

“No no no, it’s just… what do you mean by ‘thinking on it’?” Yang asked. Hearing this he smiled and shook his head a bit before saying.

“Truly you don't wish for me to spoil the surprise?” He asked her. Yang slowly blinks at him before speaking.

“I… need another one of those bottles from before.” Yang said before pulling Father closer to her. “And some cuddling or something more.”

“That I can do.” Father said in a loving tone. Yang smiled at him before my Aunt chimed in.

“Be careful with what you drink and use protection.” she said before shrugging. “Or don’t, I’m loving being called aunty.”

“Aunty aunty aunty!” Qo said with a giggle, to which Axycia pointed at her.

“See! She understands it!” Axycia laughs as Yang blushed even more.

“Make that two bottles.” she said to Father. He simply laughed at this before bring Yang closer for a passionate kiss to which Yang returned in kind. Axycia smiled at the two of them as she stood up.

“As much as I want to stay and talk I have a lot of work to do.” she said as she the ‘shooing’ gesture. “Shoo shoo.”

In a few minutes we were outside of the store with the door closed. I looked at everyone before asking.

“So… now what?”

“I want to show Iilah my lightning ball!” Qo said happily. I laughed as well as Ruby.

“I’ll take her to the library, I need to go research somethings for some work.” she explained before the two of them headed off towards the school. I simply watched the two of them walk away with a smile on my face.

“What do you wish to now?” Father asked me and Yang. Yang merely shrugged as she leaned onto Father’s shoulder with blissful sigh.

“I don’t know. What do you want to do?” Yang asked with a loving smile. I shook my head as I left the two lovebirds alone. I simply wandered around the town as I wondered what will happen next.

Author's Notes:

You have to admit that in the Cannon RWBY story Yang is dealing with some PTSD and the Fate of Remnant stuff while this Yang is Dating the God of Everything, plus the PTSD stuff. Things are a little odd huh.

Anyway, Next chapter is going to be interesting, such as it’s going to deal with heat... a lot of heat. >:)
