The brother fic to [[http://archiveofourown.org/users/UknownHero/pseuds/UknownHero [=UknownHero=]]]'s ''Fanfic/ReactWatchBelieveYikes'', staring the cast of ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'' from different time frames of the series. [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/11816424/chapters/26660967 Red vs. Blue: Reaction]] is something of a TimeTravel fic that involves suspicious a purple crystal that summons the Blood Gulch Crew at the start of [[WebAnimation/RedVsBlueTheChorusTrilogy Season 11]], Donut and Doc when they appear in that season, Washington by the season finale, post-[[WebAnimation/RedVsBlueTheBloodGulchChronicles Season 5]] Church and Texas, and post-[[WebAnimation/RedVsBlueTheProjectFreelancerSaga Project Freelancer]] Carolina, into a research facility... 250 years into the future. They have nothing else to do except wait another week for the crystal to recharge so they can find a way back into their own time. What can they do to pass the time. Why watch DVD collections of ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' of course! Just like in the original fic, group makes comments and some jokes as they watch the volumes. Given who we are talking about, prepare for trash talks and double entendres galore.

As mentioned before, this is the brother fic to ''Fanfic/ReactWatchBelieveYikes'', where the girls of Team RWBY are stuck in Beacon for the summer and watch... ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue''.

On October 25, 2016, [=UknownHero=] removed the fic from Website/FanFictionDotNet due to several complaints of copyright violations. The author contacted Creator/RoosterTeeth, who gave the fic approval. The fic was eventually added to Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn. Due to not being updated since October of 2017 and its brother fic being all but declared a DeadFic, this fic is likewise presumed dead.

!!''Red vs. Blue: Reaction'' contains examples of:

* CallBack: After Ruby reveals her Crescent Rose, Sarge asks if it was a "scy-ifle".
* CueTheFlyingPigs: Everyone's reaction to Tex complementing Ruby.
* DumbMuscle: Caboose as always, demonstrated when he smashes through several walls, much to Carolina's shock.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: An AnachronismStew at that, as the characters are from all over the chronology of ''Red vs Blue''
* GenreSavvy: Grif quickly realizes how it's going to go [[MuggingTheMonster when one of Torchwick's men tries to rob Ruby]], having been on the wrong end of numerous ass-kickings himself.
* GroinAttack: Both Tex and Carolina do this to Tucker whenever he says something dirty.
* HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday: Tucker's constant perverted comments have Simmons theorizing he's trying to do this.
* HopeSpot: At a certain point, the crystals are charged and everyone goes back in time. A few seconds later they're brought back by [[spoiler:Salem]] - albeit this time, [[TimeSkip their versions circa Season 12]] (Church is replaced by Epsilon, and Carolina mentions they were just involved with the Chorus Civil War).
* ImprobableAge: Everyone realizes that 15 year old Ruby can handle a gun better than Church... and immediately make fun of him for it.
** Then again, we've seen in canon Red Vs Blue that [[CallBack Lopez's severed head has better weapons skills than Church]], so seeing a fifteen-year-old girl shoot better than him... ''really'' not all that surprising.
* {{MST}}: Put a WorldOfSnark watching another series, and you're up for this.
* OnlySaneMan: Carolina seems to be burdened with this role, as Tex and Wash are practically just as nuts as the Blood Gulch Crew.
* PowerCrystal: The purple crystal that transported the unlucky cast through time in the first place. [[spoiler:It's implied to be Dust.]]
* SuicideAsComedy: When they find a skeleton with a bullet wound in his head, only Wash realizes [[spoiler:it's Director Leonard Church]]. Carolina finds the gun's magazine to be completely empty, causing Wash to realize [[spoiler:the Director was just as bad a shot as the Alpha, meaning he emptied his entire clip just trying to kill himself. Wash can only {{sweatdrop}} as Carolina {{lampshade|Hanging}}s that he was a horrible shot.]]
* YouDoNotWantToKnow: Given there are people from all over the timeline, information from someone's future can end up being revealed, and the characters are forced to cover up quickly (particularly how the Freelancers end up).
* YouLookFamiliar: Vocal examples, whenever a character has a shared voice actor they will point out the weirdness. Three of them are in that very room (Ozpin = Washington, Tex = Glynda), one causing extra discomfort given [[FieryRedhead the appearance is the same too]] (Carolina = Pyrrha). Averted once the crew return after a TimeSkip, and the crew doesn't notice Jaune = Felix, and 3/4 of Team RWBY kinda sound like women from Chorus.[[note]]Although with some major differences: Ruby is much more nasal than Kimball, Yang doesn't have Jensen's lisp, and Blake's personality is the polar opposite of Dr. Grey.[[/note]]
