Yang dying in Ruby's arm. The fanbase just dies

[up][up] It's got to be getting close to 16 at this point if it isn't already; given the first volume covered the first semester at Beacon and the second and third covered the second and there's been a time skip to winter, most of the characters would've had their birthdays.

Fan Nickname page for RWBY has been set up, but I dunno where to index it. If someone can do so, I'd be appreciative.

You know, interesting enough, people have pointed out that there's a second character with Grey Eyes besides Ruby; Mercury. I wonder if that's going to go anywhere, or if darker grey eyes don't count.

Remind me, Ruby's eyes were mentioned to be Grey or Silver? Just wondering...

Mercury has Gray Eyes? I thought his were actually black.

[up]Very first thing Ozpin says to Ruby: "You have Silver Eyes"

[up] Depends on the lighting.

[up][up] Silver, but that's really just a flowery way of saying light grey.

So ruby is mentioned to have Silver eyes. I think Merc has either black or grey so he isn't important in that aspect

[up] That's probably the case, but there are shots in which the lighting makes his eyes look not that different from Rub'ys, though the same is true for Coco, who also has grey eyes.

[up]Coco officially has her eye color listed as Dark brown.

And when are Mercury's eyes ever shown to be close to Ruby's? They always appear incredibly dark grey to me

[nja] Coco actually has dark brown eyes, and Merc's eyes are a noticeable shade darker than Ruby's. [nja]

[up][up] Of course, he is evil! That's why he dark grey eyes. EVIL!

I wonder if the Silver eye thing is a genetic trait like the Schee semblance. Most likely yes

@BlackSun: It's less that Mercury's eyes look close to Rubys and more that under certain lighting Ruby's eyes look darkish grey as well, ie her wiki image.

Anyway, it just kinda feels like there's kinda an arbitrary distinction between silver eyes (IRL sometimes to describe eyes that verge on white) and plain old grey eyes.

[up] Eye colors usually are, and while it's apparently a rare trait, I'm guessing not everyone gets (extra) superpowers just by having light grey eyes.

[up]Nah, all the wiki images of hers that show her eyes in detail (like her wiki image) have a much clearer silver tint as opposed to gray.

That being said, the default one does look darker but not dark gray, but closer to Platinum

[up][up] Well of course. It seems that Silver Eyes have super powers and shit. To activate them you have to sacrifice three redheads once a year tongue

We already have one for the next season tonguetongue

Well anyway, it's still appropriate to say Ruby has grey eyes because the color silver is a often considered a shade of grey.

They don't both have to be redheads.
She probably has redheaded sisters, though. Everyone has sisters in this thing.

Somehow, I think the shopkeeper man has a greater role in the story ahead...

Call it a hunch.
