The ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/series/1045193 Team DARK]]'' series is set in the world of ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' and focuses on a different team of Beacon first-year students. It is written by [[https://archiveofourown.org/users/Friendly_Neighborhood_Writer/pseuds/Friendly_Neighborhood_Writer Friendly_Neighborhood_Writer]].
The first story shows the story of how the four protagonists (Deacon Temple, Adrian Church, Revon, and Kaval) all met and became friends. The series runs concurrently alongside canon while starting out with the initiation.
'''Stories in the series:'''

!!Tropes in the series include:
* {{Adorkable}}:
** Deacon was this when he first met Velvet.
** Velvet herself is still this.
** Adrian is a KindheartedSimpleton whose stupidity can often be rather endearing.
** Kaval is ''definitely'' this whenever he’s around Revon. He’s also prone to making terrible puns, but unlike Yang he gets embarrassed and apologizes for them.
** Revon is a cheerful, lovable person who loves Kaval incredibly.
* AllForNothing: PlayedForLaughs. Kaval wanted to make a big deal out of asking Revon to date him and even saved up thousands of Lien to go to a fancy restaurant. Deacon and Adrian even stood by for moral support. And that is all rendered moot when Revon reveals that he thought they already were dating. While Revon still thought the gesture was sweet, Deacon is especially pissed about it because he gave up a much-needed nap he was going to take to help his friend with the date.
-->'''Deacon:''' Are you '''''[[PrecisionFStrike fucking]] kidding me?'''''
* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: Deacon jokes that his mom would be happy to show off his baby pictures.
* AscendedExtra: Velvet.
* AxCrazy: Alex. For starters, he abducted Deacon and cut a large gash across his face just to show the rest of DARK he wasn’t messing around.
* BadassGay: Revon and Kaval. They’re two talented huntsmen-in-training who, by the end of the first volume, have already kissed and told each other they love one another.
* BadBoss: Alex loves violence and gets excited even when his own men start getting taken out. [[spoiler: He also showed no concern when six of them were disintegrated and abandons the other four to die in the burning factory to make his escape]].
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Adrian is a sweet (if incredibly [[TheDitz stupid]]) person… until you threaten Deacon or hurt his friends.
* BigBad: [[TeensAreMonsters Alex Clover]]. A sadist who wants DARK to play his “games”.
* BigBadWannabe: Cardin. He tried to act tough around DARK, but he was even less threatening to them than he was towards RWBY and JNPR.
* ButtMonkey: Deacon gets it almost as bad as Jaune.
* TheCameo: Ruby, Weiss, Glynda, Ozpin, Coco, Oobleck, and Port have all had brief scenes. Some of the others are alluded too.
* CampGay: Downplayed with Revon. While he is incredibly feminine, he doesn’t have stereotypical gay qualities.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Deacon has to constantly look out for Adrian. Lampshaded by the latter when speaking with a waitress at the Red Clover:
-->'''Summers:''' I'm sorry about your friend. Do you still want to order?\\
'''Adrian:''' Um… sure. I'll have one of everything please.\\
'''Summers:''' What? That's a lot.\\
'''Adrian:''' Yes, it is. But I have over a thousand lien, and you just threw out my only form of impulse control.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Adrian, for all his stupidity, didn’t get into Beacon Academy for nothing. He tackled and decapitated an alpha Beowolf, tackled Cardin and beat him until he wept, and [[spoiler: vaporized six of Alex’s men with his semblance, eventually causing the sadistic teen to runoff himself.]]
* TheCutie: Revon and Velvet.
* DeadpanSnarker: Deacon and Verde definitely qualify.
* DirtyCoward:
** Cardin acts all tough, but he has run away from two fights. When he actually stays after starting one with DARK and LVDR, Adrian renders him a sobbing mess rather quickly.
** The rest of CRDL isn’t any better. Cardin must be really desperate for friends, considering he’s still with them even after they ditched him to grab to artifacts when an Alpha Beowulf and Ursa Major arrived at the ruins.
** Alex immediately drops his cheerful sadism and panics when the tables turn on him.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Even Deacon and Adrian, who have shown no attraction to guys, can admit that Revon is flat-out beautiful.
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: Apparently, Kaval was convinced that he and Revon weren't dating even though they held hands and did a lot of romantic stuff together. Deacon and Adrian thought they already were dating. Revon sets the record straight when Kaval asks to date him.
* FauxAffablyEvil: Alex is very cheerful, which makes him all the more disturbing when he shows off Deacon’s cut face or painfully electrocuted Revon and Kaval.
* ForTheEvulz: Alex gleefully admits that he is only tormenting Team DARK and several other Beacon first-years for fun.
* TheGadfly: Coco decides to tell Velvet about Deacon's outburst even after he begs her not to say anything.
* HeroKiller: When Alex electrocuted Revon and Kaval after soaking them in water, the latter’s heart stopped. He was revived by Revon.
* {{Jerkass}}:
** Par for the course for CRDL.
** Alex is sarcastic, condescending sadist who acts like he’s on top of every situation.
* KnightOfCerebus: Alex’s first appearance caused the series to go from a lighthearted comedy to a borderline horror film. While he does have [[FauxAffablyEvil a lighthearted attitude]], [[MoodDissonance it is in contrast to his horrific actions]].
* LethallyStupid: Adrian Church. So much so that ''Ironwood'' of all people created something called "Adrian Insurance" cover it.
* OvershadowedByAwesome: Team DARK continuously does a lot of great things in the story such as defeating an Alpha Beowolf and stopping an AxCrazy SerialKiller, but they are upstaged by RWBY and JNPR's actions of defeating a Nevermore '''and''' a Deathstalker as well as the White Fang dock incident respectively.
* RealAfterAll: Ozpin (naturally) doesn't believe Deacon when he mentions that there is such a thing as "Adrian Insurance" for his friend's stupidity. Deacon tells him to call Ironwood to confirm this… and confirm it he did. When he realizes he how much he could've saved from this, [[SpitTake he spits his coffee on the window]].
* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Revon is a male example since he isn't particularly embarrassed when he catches Kaval perving on him in the shower.
* ShoutOut: There is a restaurant called [[Lterature/TheHeavenCycle The Red Clover, and one of its waitresses' surname is Summers]]. Interestingly enough, the author of this fic wrote the [[Fanfic/{{Address}} first fanfic the series had]].
* SmugSnake:
** CRDL act like a bunch of tough guys, then hightail it at the first sign of trouble.
** Alex is extremely condescending up and until the situation spirals out of his control.
* TheSociopath: All signs point to Alex being one.
* StraightGay: Kaval doesn’t have very stereotypical gay traits.
* TeensAreMonsters: Alex, the BigBad. He’s a violent, cheerful sadist, but he’s no older than DARK.
* TemptingFate: Deacon has two notable run-ins with this:
** After getting kicked out of the Red Clover, he notes that his night couldn't get any worse. Cue the BigBad harassing him over the phone.
** A positive example happens at the end when he says that the night won't be getting any better. Suddenly, Velvet (his crush) calls him to ask him out on a date and his mood improves.
