2458: RWBY and Outlast – Chapters 5-8

You’re reading about another dimension, a dimension not only of prose and narrative but of pure, concentrated suck. A journey into a twisted land whose boundaries are that of a poor writer’s feeble imagination. That’s the header up ahead—your next stop, the Badfic Zone!

Critiqued by BatJamags and Ruby-Doo!

Hello once again, patrons! I’m your host, BatJamags, and I’m back with MystRWBY, Inc. for the latter half of this adventure into bizarrely regurgitative crossovers (though thankfully a much shorter one than The True Force)!

Last time, Team RWBY (plus unnecessary OC hanger-on) traveled to Mount Massive Asylum, inexplicably forgetting all of their weapons because plot regurgitation. They all forgot about their respective powers and abilities and got lost in the asylum. They proceeded to fuck around and just generally regurgitate the plot points of the original game. Usually described in terms of “the thing” and “the place” and “the guy.”

Oh, yeah, and the author’s failed attempts and writing their personalities kind of reminded me of the Scooby-Doo! gang, so snarky fake Ruby-Doo! dialogue kind of took over the riff, except by the end it was really more normal snark than Scooby-Doo! jokes because there was only so much mileage I could get out of that. I can virtually guarantee you’re all sick of it by now, but tough luck, I’m having fun. I promise next week’s riff will be all normal-like.

“Well lets find it before I die of blood loss” said Blake

“Blake it’s fine on the way we’ll try to find a medical kit” said Grey a text noise came

Blake: Damn, if you’re in charge of that then I know I’m – Oh, ew. Whose text tone is that?!

Yang: Uh… Would you believe I did it on a dare?

Ruby-Doo!: Please don’t talk about where you did it. Now give me the phone.
