Though honestly, I can get behind any RWBY ship in all honesty. Well, aside from the ones that are kind of squicky

I think House of Lancaster had some connection to France, but I'm not exactly versed in European history.

[up] All of them would, given that England had previously been conquered by a French Duke (well Norman actually) during a three way succession war between England, Normandy, and one of the Scandinavian countries. (either Denmark or Norway, I'm not sure)

Anyway, the Norman claimant (William the Bastard/Conqueror) won, and repossessed most of the land held by Anglo-Saxon nobles prior to the war and gave it to the Norman lords who supported him during the war.

In fact, IIRC, house Lancaster was the dynasty that initiated the hundred year war wherein England attempted to claim the throne of France several times during a period of around 100 years.

Yeah, House Lancaster was the one during the Hundred Years war.....

Which Jeanne d'Arc was involved in.

Hmm, so yeah, I asked earlier but didn't get much of a response: what do you guys think Mistral/Haven will be like?

I personally like the idea of it being something along the lines of the very late Byzantine Empire; a crumbling of a shadow of a ghost of an empire that once dominated the known world, with nothing left to it but it's prestigious name and some kickass walls. Presumably the King (or Emperor) of Mistral would be themed after Constantine XI Palaiologos, the last reigning Roman Emperor, and the focus of the resident King in the Mountain legend among Greeks. When/if Mistral falls to the Grimm, the Emperor casts aside his Imperial regalia and charges into the fray to die alongside his soldiers in a glorious last stand.

I could see Mistral as, honestly, being a composite of Greece/Rome and maybe Japan?

Also, I just noticed a Stealth Pun with Taiyang's voice actor being Burnie:

He's the founder of Rooster Teeth, and founders are sometimes called "Fathers".

Does anyone know when the soundtrack for Volume 3 comes out?

I have $13 burning a hole in my iTunes account.

Here's another question: What should we call the team of Ruby, Jaune, Nora, and Ren?

Why do i feel that when Qrow made Taiyang leave the room, it has something to do with my headcanon (qrow is ruby's dad)

Also, if summer after Raven, does that mean that Qrow is Taiyang's new Wife? [lol]

Burnie's voice gives Tai a very... Everyman quality.

You know he isn't supremely badass sounding but there is a genuine warmth there.

Also This means Jason/Tucker is the only Blue NOT part of the Adult supporting cast XD

Yeah I get ths sense that they may be building up to Qrow being Ruby's father. Especially as he specifically said "Not in the 'everyone is Daddy's special little girl' in this episode." I wouldn't be surprised either way at this point.

[up][up][up][up]Imagine if Jason is Mr. Schnee [lol]

And seriously, the "Qrow is actually Ruby's dad" theory is dumb because:

  • A: Monty jossed that theory, several times
  • B: If it was true, that means Summer cheated on Taiyang.
  • C: Qrow cuckolded his best friend.

Or it was a poly relationship.

And no creator worth their salt just spoils things when fans ask spoilery questions. Lying Creator tends to be a trope when being honest removes the impact a Plot Twist has.

I think John Reed would work better

It be a funny meta gag since Kara and Elizabeth both have natural southern accents but Weiss and Winter don't...but Papa Schee has this THICK Virginian Accent

Oh please, let Ruby/Jaune be someting, that way would destroy the other ship forever!, it will be glorious!

But being realistic, Jaune will probably die a virgin....and in fire, you know, their historial counterpart and all....

So, I just think of something, Ruby is clearly the little red hood right? so what happen at the end of season 3? she is going into a forest just like the chararte of the story, maybe this special grimm monty talk about would be the "wolf" to said something.

Shipping nonsense aside, I don't realistically see Ruby being paired up with anyone; in a lot of ways she's very much still a kid, and I think people tend to forget that she's a good 2-3 years younger than the other students at minimum. I think that Word of God also has stated that Ruby isn't really interested in romance, at least at the moment.

If anything Ruby x Crescent Rose seems more canon than anything else.
