If Blake and Yang do get together, which is a gigantoc if, I wager it won't be in the next two volumes at the least.

[up] I wouldn't really care, but their "romantic relationship" would have to be really forced to even work.

Bumblebee would be forced as hell if it happened now or even within the next volume, is what I'm saying. If it ever does happen, it'll need at least a couple volumes of proper buildup.

Really, to me Yang is the kind of person that would probably end up single in my opinion. I don't have anything against Bumblebee but i would like development for it at least (I will be fine around maybe volume 8 to 11 at the least)

And i believe Blake is a very ARMFUL person for Yang to end up as a couple, right? (I already made this joke in another forum and i don't care) evil grinevil grinevil grin

I feel bumblebee have something to stand on, White rose dosent have that much of build out and so far Weiss and Ruby have nothing, Lancaster look like something since right now Jaune and Ruby are kind of cute, so it is something.

Granted I dont think any ship are being confirmed right now but the direction are going right there, I see Weiss the one being single.....

Anyway in my undertale soundtrack crossover, I see this:

Phyrra vs Cinder: battle against a true hero

Phyrra last moment: Undyne death

Nora: Spear of justice

Team jaune:mmmmm bone trousle?

Ozpin: Mmmm I was torn between Megalovania or Asgore, but since his battle last 33 seconds......damn

I want to use death by glamour but right now nobody in RWBY is near that FABOLUS to deserved it.

I find curious you would say Ruby/Jaune look like something right now if you say White Rose doesn't have anything. It seems kinda arbitrary to me.

Anyway, personally I think White Rose used to make more sense way back on volume 1. Half of that volume was dedicated to their relationship, and they have become surprisingly close. Things changed since then, their partnership haven't been on a focus and we can see better their other friendships as well.

I don't have anything against Bumblebee but i would like development for it at least (I will be fine around maybe volume 8 to 11 at the least)

...Why would there need to be 5 whole seasons for "build up"? Seriously, it is not that hard build if the writers want to. Renora needed a whooping 20 seconds to start being plausible and Arkos was similarly as fast. I agree development is good, but it is not like all development needs to be excruciatingly slow.

[up] it's more that, given the current cast of characters, it's kinda the only ship that makes narrative sense for Jaune. It could very well be that he never gets over Pyrrha, but that would be rather meh IMHO.

[up]You don't need to find someone else to get over a lover's death, so it is not like he needs to find romance.

Furthermore, Ruby is the main character, not Jaune. Narratively, it is more important what he brings to her than otherwise.

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the ship (except for the name, which sucks), but there isn't a particularly strong case for it. It is really not different from any of the other surviving main character shippings (except Renora, if course).

I'm torn whether to ship Ruby with Jaune Penny or Weiss. All three relationships are good.

I have the feeling that Blake is going to decide to be an invisible guardian for Yang after realizing that Adam will still kill her. She stops an assassin from trying to kill her but the assassin activates a suicide bomb at close range which depletes her aura and knocks her unconscious which is how Yang will find her.

@Heatth: Getting over a lover's death very frequently entails being ready to move on to somebody else though, and while Jaune isn't the main character, he does appear to be the male lead / Deuteragonist of the cast, which very frequently ends up paired with the female lead (in this case our Protagonist) in fiction, something I tend to attribute to the fact that romantic relationships in fiction are most compelling when both parties have significant development and focus.

As far as how the relationship works for Ruby's narrative, it would parallel her own father's relationship with her mother, which is, of course, very realistic from a psychological standpoint. Obviously this isn't something I expect to start in volume 4; Pyrrha's death is still a recent memory for both of them, and it should take time for that wound to heal.

@Phil: Volume 3 turned me into a (casual) bumblebee shipper, and given it's extremely unlikely that both white rose and bumblebee come to pass...Yeah. Nuts and Dolts is currently in limbo because Penny is, well dead. I also always interpreted Ruby's interactions with Penny as the pair being of a kindred spirit rather than romantic, what with both of them having difficulties with socializing, sarcasm, and dancing.

Or they could introduce a fourth character to act as a love interest which would be... Tricky... To pull off.

I'm not sure making a character as a replacement for Pyrrha this way is a good idea.

I doubt Jauney-Boy is willing to find love after what happened... poor guy. But if the writing is good, I'm do hope I'll like it.

Still, Arkos Forevermore to Infinity and Fucking Beyond, Goddammit.

[up] He's 17 (or so, maybe 18), with the majority of his life ahead of him. As hard as it must be to lose Pyrrha, for his sake, I can only hope he doesn't endlessly torture himself over this and swear off ever finding someone else, even if it doesn't happen within the course of the series. That just isn't healthy.

@ Captain Capsase,

I don't really disagree with anything you said. I can see Ruby Jaune happening. I just fond a bit odd you say Ruby and Weiss got "nothing" while Ruby and Jaune "looked like something". Seems a very arbitrary view on your part. Ruby and Jaune really don't have anything more than Ruby and Weiss, Penny or even Blake. They are close friends who have never show any clear attraction to each other. Nothing more, nothing less.

As for Jaune being the Deuteragonist. He might have looked like one in season 1 and partially in season 2, but the last volume made his place clear. He is not more important than any other character. Anyone in RWBY is more important than him (which makes sense). He just got a few arcs, that is it. And, at any rate, he is clearly bellow Ruby (as is everyone) in the main character totem pole. My objection to your other post is you making a "narrative argument" that only took him into account, instead of the actual main character, which was a bit silly.

[up][up][up]True. But immediately jumping into a new ship is not necessarely healthy either. You seem to think Jaune must find a new love, but why is that? He doesn't need a love interest any more than any of the characters need one. He might find one, or he might not. Neither are necessary for a good story.

[up]I am pretty sure I seem a few stories like that. I don't think any of them were particularly good.

[up] I don't think white rose has nothing, but it's not in a position where anything leading towards it is going to happen, and probably won't be for at least a volume if not more. If Lancaster is going to happen, it's likely there'll at least be some hints towards it in volume 4. As far as Jaune's position in the story goes, JNPR was considered by Monty to be a "second A team", and while RWBY theoretically takes precedence because of the title billing, that hasn't always been the case in the show, ie season 3's star was definitely Pyrrha, and volume 4 looks like it's going to have even more JNPR (plus Ruby) focus.

Obviously he doesn't need to find someone else, but it's definitely something that's on the table given there's years of time in-universe presumed to be left in the show.

I know... but it's difficult to find great Arkos fanfics for me. Good thing tumblr has a bajillion fanarts of that ship to keep me—

>sees plenty of fanarts of Jaune mourning Pyrrha, some with her spirit comforting him from the great beyond.

ORZ

But seriously though, I do hope Jauney-Boy gets better. If he dies... I can at least think that he and Pyrrha will be together in death. I dunno how the afterlife works in Remnant (hell, we don't even know what religions exist there) but I want them to be happy, dammit.

Also, Jaune's Seven Sisters... I really want them to appear.
