I've been enjoying a recently started Oscar focused time travel fic Lost Parallax, involving a 'probably just after V7' Oscar suddenly ending up near his hometown just a bit before canon with Long Memory in hand and wearing his new fancy huntsman clothes but with no Ozpin in his head and no idea what just happened or why. Features lots of Oscar struggling with his various anxieties/traumas and getting trapped in his head, some weird stuff going on with the Oz connection, some surprisingly not invasive OCs, nice reflective moments on who team RWBY and JNR are to Oscar, and the start of a Pyrrha + Oscar friendship which is one of those things I've been craving to see in fanfic for a while now. There are combat scenes but for the most part the story is introspective or centred around Oscar trying to prevent various tragedies like the Fall of Beacon while not actually having a lot of idea on how, beyond trying to get a certain paranoid, depressed Wizard who doesn't have any idea who he is to open up and trust him. And he refuses to lie or to compromise his ethics while doing so. Fic is tagged Rosegarden but at the time of this posting -Chapter 9- it's just Oscar having a noticeable admiration for Ruby in narration, and them being on the same wavelength (re: hope and heroism) the one time they've actually spoken. I suspect either shipping is secondary to the author's focus or it's a slowburn they're going for. So yeah. No clue if this is what you were looking for but nothing I've mentioned is a turn off I'd recommend keeping an eye on it as it updates~ 1 - 20 of 116 Works in Pyrrha Nikos LivesNavigation and ActionsPages NavigationListing Works
