Imma copy+paste something here from a discussion I had with someone else.

I had a fanfic idea. What if...Ruby decided that she really didn’t want to be special, and declined Ozpin’s offer to move her up two years. And (for some reason) the White Fang stuff was slower to proceed, because they didn’t have little red hooded girls stuffing up their plans maybe, which meant they took a further two years to get to the point they are at now, when Ruby is seventeen? And Weiss pair up with some random...this whole story would be so AU and would need so much work put into it to make it work...Ugh. My brain hurts trying to think about the characterisations of the cast in two years without Ruby there too.
