A plot idea might be that Ruby and Blake are sisters separated at birth. Ruby was raised in Patch while Blake was in Menagerie. They find out when they both start having strange abilities that are related to their shared heritage. For example, they can communicate telepathically during times of great danger. As they explore this new connection, they also have to deal with the fact that there are some in the world who would see their union as a threat to the status quo. They then have to fight to protect their sisterhood and the world at the same time.
One idea could be Ruby and Blake getting lost in a mysterious forest during a mission in Volume 5. They have to rely on each other's skills, Ruby's speed and Blake's stealth, to find their way out.

A fanfiction could be written about a school project in Volume 1 that Ruby and Blake are paired up for. At first, they struggle to work together because of their different personalities.

A third plot idea is that they participate in a tournament together. They have to compete against other teams from different academies. During the tournament, they face some tough opponents who target their weaknesses. Ruby and Blake have to train hard together to overcome these challenges. In the process, they learn new techniques from each other and their relationship evolves from just being teammates to being really close friends who trust each other completely.
One possible plotline could be Ruby and Blake facing a difficult mission together. During this, they realize their feelings for each other are deeper than friendship. They might have to protect each other from powerful enemies, and through these shared experiences, their love blossoms.
One plot idea could be that Ruby discovers a hidden connection between her Silver - eyed powers and Ozma's ancient magic. Maybe she has visions that lead her to an old relic related to Ozma.

A possible plot for a fanfiction about Whitley and Ruby in RWBY could be that they are both chosen for a special task by Ozpin (or his successor).

Whitley's knowledge of Atlas society and technology, combined with Ruby's combat skills and leadership, make them a formidable team.
