* The first step towards the Curious Cat's defeat involves them willingly inhaling smoke made from the leaves of the Tree as a boastful gesture of them being immune to the stuff, only for said showboating to backfire horribly when Neo ''isn't'' immune, forcing them to leave their host when they start painfully experiencing Neo's emotions and memories. That's right - the Cat was effectively defeated by smoking a fat blunt and having a bad trip.

* More of a meta thing, but Monty decided to see just how expressive he could make [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A_Za_k2CIAA01r6.jpg:large Ruby]] be.
* The velociraptor (Generally referred to as [[FanNickname RWBYsaurus]]) that keeps showing up in all of Monty's random drawings of the team. [[https://twitter.com/montyoum/status/305239829455724544/photo/1 Here he is in a hat,]] being ridden by Ruby and Weiss.
-->'''Miles:''' [[SarcasmMode Great, now everyone knows the ending to season one]].
* Miles answers the question of what would happen in a theoretical fight between Ozpin and Washington in the crew's live chat.
-->'''Miles:''' Well, I think they'd start fighting, then they'd realize how much they have in common, then they'd watch that episode of ''Series/BreakingBad'' where Shannon [=McCormick=] makes an appearance and be like "That was a good episode".
* [[https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=486004488181095&set=vb.278065288975017&type=3&video_source=pages_video_set Jaune's got the moves like Monty.]] No really, he does.
** Hilariously, this gets used in "Dance Dance Infiltration", and it's even funnier... with a hint of [[HellYesMoment awesome]] for the context.
*** What song Monty think is best suited for Blake and Yang? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gt39BHfvXHk What else but "Black and Yellow!"]]
* The director commentary for Volume 1 was recorded at about 3am just before the DVD was sent to be 'printed', and they are punch drunk.
-->Ren Valkyrie and Lie...\\
I accidentally shipped them in my brain!
** At another point, when Ruby and Weiss make eye contact in the forest, one of them starts singing "I Will Always Love You". Other 'White Rose' jokes were also made at various points.
** All the different things they theorized Professor Port was doing outside after class. [[BreadMilkEggsSquick Reminiscing previous hunts, planning future hunts, farting...]]
** In the voice actress track, Barbara joked about wanting a sound effect for every time Yang hugged somebody into her rather impressive rack.
** Due to working on Red vs Blue, Miles had not actually seen the final two episodes, so listening to the commentary track gives a live reaction track. His reaction when Penny cuts the Bullheads in half is priceless.
*** Also of note is his reaction to Penny's CurbStompBattle against the White Fang mooks. It sounds like he's about to have an orgasm.
** Also in the voice actress track, when Sun winks at Blake, Lindsay is jokingly telling Arryn to stay away from their boyfriend.
** Also on the DVD, we have [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQLQVWVM9_0 Russel's rap.]]
** Another point in the ladies commentary, while Yang is fighting the Ursa and talking about how Blake is just off screen, watching Yang.
--->'''Barbara:''' She's like damn girl, she's hot. Just kidding. A lot listening are probably happy I said that.

* During the first Production Diary for Vol. 2, a view of the writing process is shown. It apparently consists of "Yeah-no-yeah" said a lot, pacing on the conference room table, and watching the latest ''Film/{{Godzilla|2014}}'' trailer.
* In the first minute of the second Production Diary, the writer shows a sketch of Team RWBY, Blake has a cat head with a little 'meow' over her head.
* Sun's team are all based on different Kpop stars.
** In the same vein, the name for Velvet's team? CFVY - pronounced 'Coffee'.
* According to a Reddit thread, Coco Adel's name was first revealed in a conversation at RTX that went along the lines of this:
-->'''Monty:''' ''[To someone cosplaying as Coco]'' That's a really good Coco cosplay!\\
'''Cosplayer:''' Oh, her name's Coco?\\
'''Monty:''' ''Stunned silence''
* RTX 2014 had [[https://i.pinimg.com/736x/96/32/19/963219a9a2ebb579700aecb404f9252d--rwby-voice-actors-rwby-cast.jpg Team RWBY dressed as themselves.]] As a bonus, after being [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jauy6qfN9uU introduced to the panel]], it's said "they're legally required to wear this all the time now. It's part of their contract."
** During that panel, the RWBY plushies are introduced, and passed on to their respective voice actresses. Within moments, [[http://i.imgur.com/7rlnpFK.jpg Barb is playing with the Blake and Yang plushies]], [[https://youtu.be/pipgukEIwbA?t=4m25s having them make out (and more)]] (Arryn even pushes the joke further by gently caressing Barb's her). The wide shots of [[https://pgw-chaos.deviantart.com/art/RTX-2014-RWBY-Panel-466821779 the rest of the panel]] make it funnier.
** The panel [[https://youtu.be/EOvMt3hmAjE?t=10m50s had a demonstration of the "temp track" that happens during writing sessions]], with Miles doing one of Cinder's lines.
* At the musical panel of RTX 2014, right before "This Will Be the Day", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ay0Zq8KIUEU#t=56s Jeff Williams pre-emptively]] [[IconicSongRequest fulfills any requests for]] [[Music/LynyrdSkynyrd "Freebird"]]. The surprised look by Casey (dressed as Ruby...) is a plus.
** When Jeff and Casey performed in RTX 2016, their keyboardist [[https://youtu.be/N5yrzYF6wKI?t=58s contibuted an even more unusual intro song]] - namely, the Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Center one.
* During the RTX 2016 music panel, [[https://youtu.be/0SF1HJlwiww?t=1290 the Williams family's initial reaction to the Red Trailer]]:
-->'''Jeff''': [Monty's] just like 'Here's this video'. And it's like: 'Why is she killing these dogs? What is... this is a show about a psycho fucking kid slicing up dogs, what the fuck?!' I'm like "I don't know if I wanna work in this, man. It's like, nasty." \\
'''Casey''': I was in that really dark place, like a goth phase. So I was like "Yes! Ooooh!"\\
'''Jeff''': And I'm like: "Noooo! Save the dogs!"
** Later, Jeff recalls "'Monty, who is in the grave?', he went 'I don't know. We just thought it would be cool if she visited a grave' And I'm like 'Are you fucking with me? What if it's her mom?' And he is like '[[SureLetsGoWithThat I'm... that's cool! Well, that's her mom! Sure, why not?]]'" Some comments highlight "So Jeff Williams essentially killed Ruby's mom."
** "'Red like roses fill my dreams'. With what? Cranberry sauce? Kool-Aid? Bloody Marys? But then I went 'With blood, cause that's way more epic!' Though cranberry sauce might be tastier."
* During [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7lsmq4x9fE a livestream]] following the first World of Remnant segment, Arryn (Blake's VA) was laying on the floor in the foreground of the RT set, and Kara (Weiss's VA) was going to jokingly act as if she was going to step on her, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=typm3_PXnaA but tripped up and fell over her (and lightly bumping her head on the table)]].
-->'''Miles''': [[PortmanteauCoupleName Monochrome! Checkmate!]] Black and White together at least!\\
'''Kerry:''' Weiss Down!
** A few minutes later, all four of the RWBY VA's were sitting on the couch, and Miles noted that they were 'in order'. The girls joked that they almost do it instinctually, and when they are out of order, they feel weird.
* Monty Oum has uploaded a [[https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=656923741089168 video]] to his Facebook page of the team JNPR dance scene, but with the character models replaced. Including one version with Grimm dancing, despite their models not being suited for the movements. This results in the models rotating without moving their limbs (except the Ursa and Beowolf, who are sufficiently humanoid to do the moves).
** Monty later tweeted that he was expecting the fans to flood [=YouTube=] with alternate Team JNPR dance scenes. The fans' response? "Challenge accepted!"
** Here is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcnnDOer9Pk one]] featuring ''77 Songs''.

** Yang's voice actress' response?
--->'''Barbara:''' Hard-core make-out session!
** Miles [[HoYay immediately changes his answer to that]].
** [[https://youtu.be/p8_34G51AJ4?t=674 At another point]], while showing off the poster for Volume 3, went to zoom in on the picture, to show the details. But due to the way the picture was laid out, zooming tight into the center of the picture [[AccidentalPervert resulted in the screen being filled by Ruby's hips and crotch]].

* During the Extra Life stream, Miles [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWGDoTdk2IM does Jaune going into a profanity-laden rant on Neptune and Weiss.]]
** Then, in less than twelve hours since it was shown, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7lM8M7To4A a fan made a puppet show version of it.]]
** Then Lindsay as Ruby [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHSoztUW0pk reads Fifty Shades of Grey.]]
--->'''Lindsay:''' ''[in Ruby voice]'' [[GoshDarnItToHeck I truck. Hard]]. [...] This is literature?!? [[WhoWritesThisCrap Who reads this shit?!?]]
** They were also playing ''RWBY: Grimm Eclipse'', in which one of the sessions involved ''everyone'' [[MesACrowd playing as Yang]]. [[https://twitter.com/_EleanorWright/status/663519915354275840 Behold. A Yin of Yangs.]]
* In ''RWBY: Grimm Eclipse'', one of the quality settings is called "[[AscendedMeme potato]]".
** If a player reaches level 10, they unlock an ability for the character they're playing as. For Yang, this ability is called [[Film/ChittyChittyBangBang Chitty Chitty Yang Yang]], [[IncrediblyLamePun because of course it is]].
* Creator/AchievementHunter's LetsPlay of ''RWBY: Grimm Eclipse'', starring Michael, Lindsay, Ryan and Jeremy:
** Despite Michael being the one playing [[PungeonMaster Yang Xiao Long]], it's ''Jeremy'' making the poor puns. Turns into a BrickJoke when one of his puns comes close to the name of the first stage.
** Lindsay's first action upon playing the game? Getting Ruby to mow the lawn.
** When Professor Port starts talking, everyone tells Ryan to shut up and Ryan's confused as to why he's talking to himself. Lindsay is hit with this briefly as well.
** They try to give themselves a team name. Best they can come up with is JMRL (pronounced like [[VideoGame/SonicAdvance Gemerl]]. At the very least, the [=YouTube=] community rally around MJLR (pronounced Mjolnir)
** When Michael boasts that he's the party host for the game, he asks Lindsay if they remember the time when Yang ganked leadership of Team RWBY. Their response? "Yeah, it was called ''Volume 2''."
** The gang bursts out laughing when Port tells them to have their weapons ready and their mustaches waxed.
** While protecting a control center, Ruby ends up falling to the Grimm. Cue cries of "NOT CANON!" and Ryan declaring himself leader of the new Team Blake.
** Near the end of the stage, Michael switches controllers and is able to get the most out of Yang. Ryan's confused as to how Michael is able to go that far without specials.
** During the second stage, they end up meeting the Boarbatusk. Lindsay asks Jeremy (whose playing Weiss) if he wants to confront it himself. Jeremy thankfully declines.
** They start teasing about Jeremy's size, claiming that he should be on ''RWBY'' and be an entire team, LILJ. Lindsay suggests that they'd come together like some sort of Megazord. Michael suggests that they'd just turn into one normal person.
** Michael's "Yang voice", which sounds like Barbara with a cold, and Jeremy's "Weiss voice", which sounds like he got his nuts in a vice when he yells (and complete gibberish when speaking normally), and his "Oobleck voice", which they find very convincing. Or hilarious.
** After loudly yelling "YOU BITCH!" after Jeremy steals crate XP from her, Lindsay expresses a desire to have Ruby say that to Weiss.
--->That's how I want to voice Ruby when Weiss talks to her: "YOU BITCH!"
** The third stage quickly descends into a box hunting contest, trying to find all the boxes with XP in them.
** Near the end, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGlye2zjEIY&t=36m Ruby falls again]] and Lindsay tries to get the other guys to revive them. When the guys claim they can't figure out what's going on, Lindsay's forced to use their Ruby voice to get them over there.
** After briefly getting fed up with Joel's voice acting during the bomb mission:
--->'''Michael''': (imitating Joel) "The cart need fuel to go drive, vroom vroom, it not move fast enough!"
** Someone went and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OccQtyeQiA replaced some of Weiss' dialogue]] from the show with Jeremy's version.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HixWngFRq1w Achievement Hunter dubs over RWBY]]. And of course Lindsay is still Ruby, only speaking with a butch voice.
* At RTXAU, Ryan, Michael, Lindsay, and Barbara did another Let's Play of RWBY: Grimm Eclipse. Ryan manages to get the audience to yell out "CRATE!" whenever he comes across one. Eventually:
-->'''Audience Member:''' Ryan, [[JustForPun you're doing crate!]]\\
'''Ryan:''' Thanks!\\
'''Lindsay:''' [[ActuallyPrettyFunny I like that, nice.]] Do you want Barbara's job?\\
'''Barbara:''' Yeah, you wanna come up here and replace me?
* Lindsay and Barbara again briefly played ''Grimm Eclipse''... [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaKmTgrFIe8 with Kara and Arryn along]].
* As already stated on the Awesome page, at RTX Australia 2016 there was a Q&A session with Ruby and Yang using motion capture. The entire event is a goldmine, but in particular, Yang's awkward answer regarding the canonicity of the Death Battle with Tifa.
** When Ruby and Yang were asked how they were going to make Mercury pay for the scandal, Yang happily said, [[RefugeInAudacity "I'm gonna break]] his other leg!"
** When Ruby and Yang were asked if there were any stories of how they discovered their semblances, Ruby gives a somewhat in-depth answer about Qrow helping her. Yang's answer? "I stubbed my toe once."
** When Yang is asked if she's ever going to button up her shirt, she answered somewhat threateningly with [[Film/{{Taken}} "I will find you]][[DisproportionateRetribution ...and I will kill you."]] Makes more sense when you realize the question was being asked by a girl dressed as Neo.
** The way Yang is smiling makes it look like she's really drunk or really high.
** Jaune briefly shows up to call Ruby. She immediately tells him to call back and go away.
*** And what was the username? ''I<3YellowSnow''.
** One question asks about healthcare at Beacon, to which Ruby replies that while it's not as good as Australian healthcare, it's still pretty good. A member of the audience yells out "[[SelfDeprecation That's not saying much!]]"
* According to the Livestream done for Season 3 in anticipation for the finale, there's a file somewhere of a dead Penny's right hand flipping off the camera. Additionally, a [[HilariousOuttakes Blooper Reel]] shown at the Volume 3 Tugg event[[note]]The same one mentioned below for [=RTX=] 2016[[/note]] showed that this wasn't them joking. During the reels it showed Penny's dismembered hand ''slowly'' turning palm-up and ''slowly'' pulling the fingers down. It was blurred out, but still.
** There was a note given after episode 10 by Kerry about Ironwood's fight with the alpha wolf Grimm: "I'm so wet right now."
** Later, during Ironwood's dramatic [[RoboticReveal reveal]], Miles asked about many people were aroused by it. All of the women raised their hands... as did a number of the men.
** Miles reminding viewers that Kerry also directs the episodes, so it's "a joint effort" in being heartless, so be sure to thank (and fight) him, too!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qumbPCdcYoU The RWBY Crew Reacts To Murderofbirds Reacting To "PVP"]]. Crosses into Heartwarming with Murder's emotional reaction to being personally sent the video by Rooster Teeth, but also features a moment where the crew cheers when they make a grown man cry.
* In the cast commentary for "End of the Beginning", the cast dub the shirt Yang's wearing during her depression the "sad mustard" shirt.
* In wanting to offer a discount for Father's Day, Rooster Teeth began using ads advertising the discount with the obvious ''RWBY'' hook. The kicker? They used the [[SarcasmMode obvious Father of the Year material]]: [[https://66.media.tumblr.com/0d33cdcec22dd88a7c7746eebfb56acb/tumblr_inline_pmxmnfnPEJ1v8qs70_540.jpg Mr. Schnee.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caNKzMRmGII RTX 2016 featured an exclusive]] [[HilariousOuttakes blooper reel]] featuring a plethora of animation errors (such as Ozpin's mug floating away or enlarging) and the crew screwing around with the models (such as [[TheDogWasTheMastermind Shopkeeper Salem)]].
** As bonus, the context behind the Gray Kattock gag is that Gray did the motion-capture for Neon. The image of a grown-ass man pulling off the flirty-girly poses is too funny to not laugh at.
* Kerry's anecdote of [[http://roosterteeth.com/episode/rwby-season-3-vol-3-d-v-d-blu-ray-extras-let-s-make-a-show-the-legacy-of-rwby-clip RWBY's origins]].
-->'''Kerry:''' [Monty] came in late, but just 'cause he was there overnight, and he was still kinda half-awake, and he just walked up to me and he said: "Red... white... black... yellow." And I said: "Yes Monty, those are four colors."
* The week after ''Heroes and Monsters'' aired, Creator/RoosterTeeth announced [[http://roosterteeth.com/post/51199703 the 2016 valentines]]. The first one? [[http://40.media.tumblr.com/8633bd3a0fd53387fa5ec36d9f85476a/tumblr_o2gbh3Whyf1qdxepho5_1280.jpg Yang]], with the caption "I want to hold your hand."
** Also note that she's positioned on the card to hide her right arm.
* The CRWBY's reactions to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izEnLF8uWWs this question]] at RTX 2017. Fans were quick to point out the cast's reactions (Lindsay: laughs; Kara: unimpressed; Arryn: horrified; Barb: ecstatic) are [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/rwby/images/3/39/Chibi_07_00038.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/640?cb=20160619150225 character appropriate]].
** In contrast to Arryn, the look of pure sinful ''glee'' on Barb's face as soon as she hears the question.
--->'''Barbara:''' ''(to Miles and Kerry; in can-this-please-be-canon tone)'' ''Does it?!''
** Gray then tried to keep it PG by saying "Well, how else will she know about her phone calls?". Barbara derails his efforts ''quick-smart''.
--->'''Barbara:''' I'd like to imagine, instead of a vibration, [[PowerPerversionPotential the hand just]] ''[[ADateWithRosiePalms spins]]''.
** After Miles then tries to claim that said spinning is for Yang's attacks, Barbara happily proceeds to throw a massive vat of kerosene onto an already massive bonfire.
--->'''Arryn:''' This is supposed to be a PG panel!\\
'''Barbara:''' Well, hopefully those people don't know what we're talking about!\\
'''Lindsay:''' I mean, Inspector Gadget had vibrating arms, so...\\
'''Barbara:''' Yeah, and she's gonna [[DoubleEntendre inspect]] ''[[DoubleEntendre her]]'' [[DoubleEntendre gadgets!]]\\
''Arryn's jaw hits the floor, Barbara mimes a slam dunk, and Miles facedesks while Lindsay cracks up laughing.''\\
'''Kerry:''' ''Next question! Moving on!''\\
''Arryn soon mouths "What the f---?"''
** Afterwards, Gray winds up saying this to the man who asked that question in the first place.
--->'''Gray:''' If I still had one of those Pyrrha dolls, I would throw it at you.
** And funnier yet, the RWBY fanartist Creator/RoosterTeeth have employed for their new "gen:Lock" show decided to [[http://dishwasher1910.deviantart.com/art/Devastating-attack-691862432 visualise this idea]].
* Warner Bros. Japan asked Burnie Burns to include a HotSpringsEpisode in the future of all things. To say he shot that one down immediately would be an understatement.
* At a con RWBY panel featuring Arryn, Jen, and Elizabeth Maxwell[[note]]Questcon, Mobile, AL, 21 Oct 17[[/note]], somebody asked the ladies what they thought a sloth really sounded like. Jen started making sounds she thought sounded like it should, but Arryn had an intrigued look, and pulled out her phone. A moment later, she found a video of a baby sloth, and played it into the microphone. At which point, Jen shifted her imitations to the actual sounds, sounds cute and hilarious.
* In a cross with Heartwarming, [[https://youtu.be/iXulL-B5Fi8?t=368 Shannon McCormick's discovery of RWBY Chibi]]: Jen Brown, who was devastated following the season 3 finale three weeks prior, revealed she was recording for Pyrrha, to his shock.
* As of Cyber Monday 2017, the name of a certain [[Memes/{{RWBY}} memetic]] Pyrrha plush in the RT store is now [[https://store.roosterteeth.com/products/rwby-pyrrha-12-plush "The Great One".]]
** [[https://twitter.com/RoosterTeeth/status/981919558888902657 And speaking of RT taking shots at that plush...]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rvtFHNnjuY Qrow asks Winter about her kind of man]]. Between the really specific description and Vic burping, it's hard not to laugh.
* The animation panel at Anime Expo 2018 had [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNRqrws2Gho this question]] regarding shipping. According to Miles, Kerry came up with a ship so disgusting[[note]]Blake, Yang and Qrow[[/note]] that he refused to advocate it, but the ''name'' of the ship[[note]]The Birds and the Bees[[/note]] was ''incredibly punny''. Kerry's response proved to be the icing on the cake.
-->'''Kerry:''' I mean, Raven [[CrossesTheLineTwice could be there too, I guess]].
* RTX 2018 had a reading of season 3's opening scene [[https://youtu.be/bwwTRKAV3MQ?t=4m with the actors doing other roles]] ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAtBWsM-478 here's with actual episode footage]]). It's as funny as it gets.
* RTX 2018 had an interesting question asked: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jo9Z-UYey0E What would happen if any character from ''RWBY'' had the Infinity Gauntlet?]] It...goes about as well as you would expect.
-->'''Lindsay''' (in Ruby's voice): Well, uh, let's just say that half of my teammates would be gone in the snap of a finger.\\
'''Barbara''' (in Yang's voice): Ruby, I don't feel so good! (''mix of groans and applause from the crowd'')\\
'''Arryn''': I've-I've not seen any of them...\\
'''Gray''': New show, Team RW, coming to you this fall!
** If you thought Team RWBY with the gauntlet was bad, Miles thinks Team JNPR, or rather Jaune, would screw it up even ''worse''.
--->'''Miles''' (''in Jaune's voice''): Let's play rock-paper-scissors! Oh, I lost! Darn it! *snaps finger* [[BigNo NO!!!]]\\
'''Gray''': I'm ''never'' gonna think of that Pyrrha shot the same way now.\\
'''Miles''': *angrily after the crowd groans* '''[[AscendedMeme OH DON'T ACT LIKE YOU DIDN'T ALREADY SEE THE MEMES!!]]'''
** Strangely, the whole cast agrees that Yang would think that she can do much more damage with her Ember Celica than with the Infinity Gauntlet.
---> '''Miles''': I feel like Yang would look at the gauntlet and go, "eh, mine's better!"
** If one watches closely, you can see Barb's ''jaw drop'' when Arryn mentions she hasn't seen any of the [=MCU=] movies.
* The ''RWBY Rewind'' recap of ep 4 of volume 6 has Shannon [[https://twitter.com/RoosterTeeth/status/1064912506949234688 acting out a weird dream Ozpin had.]]
** In another episode, [[https://twitter.com/RoosterTeeth/status/1070001786977583104 Lindsay's lightning round]].
** [[https://twitter.com/RoosterTeeth/status/1072526477558657024 Melissa Sternenberg making the hosts squee]].
** In a CringeComedy case, an episode for volume 5 had a rigging artist and a concept one receiving questions about the show's plot and\or theories on the lightning round. Both clearly have no idea how to answer.
* Melissa Sternenberg, the voice of Maria, [[https://twitter.com/mippa/status/1074736735429505025 introducing herself to Tock's VA]] and [[https://twitter.com/mippa/status/1075954347844997124 offering cashews to Cordovin's one]].
* Arryn Zech [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21O3wscFwsI watching V6E12]], one of the most {{Adorkable}} things ever.
* After it was revealed that Neo would be part of ''VideoGame/BlazBlueCrossTagBattle'', a couple days later, it turned out she would be voiced by ''Casey Lee Williams'' for her battle efforts. Yes. The woman who does most of the singing on the show voices the mute character.
** On Twitter, Kerry phrased it as 'voicing' Neo.
* An animation-themed episode of RT's improv show ''On the Spot'' unexpectedly featured a prompt in which Lindsay and Michael had to play Ruby and Sun. In the sketch, Ruby has stolen Sun's weapon as a prank and he has come to Team RWBY's dorm room to beg her to give it back. Michael gets very meta with it, commenting on how little Team SSSN have appeared in the series. Also according to Michael in the sketch, Creator/GavinFree has completely forgotten that he was a ''RWBY'' cast member, presumably because, as Michael-as-Sun points out, Scarlet only ever had one line. (actually two, but you can hardly blame him for forgetting)
* [[https://allagesofgeek.com/videos/casey-lee-williams-drake-bell-stans-and-listening-to-everything/ Appearing on the Geek Jam Surgery]], Casey Lee Williams takes the time to reveal that when Jeff took 6-year-old her to a [[Music/DreamTheater Dream Theater]] concert, there was an ad for a [[Creator/DrakeBell Drake Bell]] concert. Yes, [[Series/DrakeAndJosh that Drake Bell]]. Cue Casey ''begging'' him to take her, and both of them becoming Drake Bell stans (after horrible opening acts).
* The 2020 RWBY panel livestream cut out right before the volume eight trailer started... and it cut back to Salem saying she has questions. The ironic timing is hilariously reflective of the fandom reactions to the event.
* The sound designer for Volume 6, Chriss Kokkinos, [[https://twitter.com/christheFER/status/1393732049987641345 revealed on Twitter]] the source of the sound effects of the river Adam falls into after being fatally stabbed: a constantly-flushing toilet in the men's room. Many fans agreed that being flushed down the toilet was exactly what Adam deserved.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Print Media]]
* The first manga anthology book plays up Ruby's immaturity. One of the stories has Ruby deciding to dye her hair red, sending Yang into a TroubledFetalPosition, thinking her dear little sister's entered a rebellious phase. Ruby explains that it's because she's the only one whose hair color didn't match their designated color, complaining that the team should be called "BWBY".
** Which is even more hilarious when you consider what the presumable pronunciation of "BWBY" must be...
** One story is a revamp of Ruby meeting Cinder's team in Volume 2 Episode 2. Ruby assumes Cinder is a chaperone, much to Cinder's ire. Ruby then concludes that Cinder is a remedial student.
** Another story follows up on the Volume 2 finale, with Team RWBY being honored at an awards ceremony. Ruby doesn't feel comfortable at the party due to the crowds, while Ozpin, on the other hand, enjoys them because they are key to help boost morale... and for another reason:
--->'''Ozpin:''' [[SkewedPriorities Plus there's an open bar. This is great.]]\\
'''Ruby:''' I'm still underage...
* In the Weiss anthology manga volume, one story plays up Weiss' ACupAngst by jealously calling [[BoobsOfSteel Yang]] "Ms. Smokin' Bod".
** Another story has Weiss attempt to make chocolate cookies. The result is so stale that Team [=RWBY=] is able to use them as weapons against Torchwick and the White Fang!
* In ''Literature/RWBYBeforeTheDawn'', Neptune decides that going undercover at an illegal cage fight requires [[WebAnimation/RWBYChibi wearing a false mustache.]] Yatsuhashi points out that not only is Neptune too young to grow a mustache, but it's a different color from his hair.
* In ''Literature/RWBYRomanHoliday'', Torchwick goes into a tattoo palor. He shows his arm with his Spiders gang mark and asks for [[AmbiguousSyntax it to be removed.]] When the tattoo artist pulls out a bone saw, Torchwick amends his request to mean the tattoo, much to her disappointment.
