[up][up] Monty's comment wasn't about anything specific, so yes.

What I meant was that none of the current girl/girl couples have much in the way of support for them individually.

Them having a heart to heart is laughable. Girls can do that with their friends. Guys can do that with their friends. Anyone who is not piss-poor at human interaction can do that.[lol]

If Yang is Hulk then Blake is Black Widow

It'll be like Age of Ultron except the romance is better developed and won't make people Yangrygrin

@BSN It was, but i don't see it the romantic sense.

You have to convince me with onscreen interactions if the couple becomes a reality. Meta examples aren't enough, at least for me.

More Character interaction is only ever a good thing.

That's what makes the relationship matter, no doubt bro.

I take it someone posted all of the Mammoth Rider posts.

This one's my favorite.

"I saw your ship flying into town and wow, what a crappy ship. I mean, it's a better ship than Bumbleebee, but..."

So, if Qrow turns into a crow... raven probably turns into... I think Raven was watching Qrow fight Winter.

There's also the similarities between Taiyang/ Raven

[up][up]It's actually quite simple: Crows and Ravens are both members of the Corvus genus of birds (Corvidae family), but Ravens are bigger, and have similar characteristics and appearances that generally separate them from other crows.

Basically, it's the Square/Rectangle thing. All Ravens are Crows, but not all Crows are Ravens

Actually, not really; crow refers to separate species of the Corvus genus depending on where you live, with either the carrion crow or hooded crow in Europe, or the American crow, fish crow, or northwestern crow in America. The genus is also referred to as "crow" sometimes, so technically ravens are simply a species of the crow genus.

There's also the fact that Blake running away is a clear case of "break her heart to save her"

Yeah, cause no-one has ever fled their friends to keep them safe from maniacs.

I want something that shows an actual attraction, or that they have a different relationship from other people. And it'd still seem suspicious when Blake/Sun is being shipteased.

So raven is the older twin then?

You know, I just realized that Darth's "theory" about Jaune be the secret second child of Raven and Taiyang flat out can't work (and not just because it's an even bigger reach than Ruby Branwen); since Yang and Jaune are the same age, they'd have to be fraternal twins for that to work, and the mental gymnastics required to reconcile that are staggering.

That said, by the point we're getting those sorts of twists, it's clear that RWBY has gone completely off the rails into a train wreck of unnecessary plot twists, so...

Oh yeah, remember a couple pages back when we brought up D&D/Pathfinder versions of the characters?

Well... (side note: RWBY is a VERY high-end universe in regards to stats, most hunters would have higher than a 25-point-buy

Mercury Black

  • Male Human Brawler 5, Assassin 5
  • Neutral Evil Medium Humanoid (human)
    • Strength: 18
    • Dexterity: 24
    • Constitution: 20
    • Intelligence: 10
    • Wisdom: 14
    • Charisma: 6
  • Base Attack Bonus: +8/+3; CMB +12/+7; CMD 29

Honestly, the easiest RWBY characters to make in D&D/Pathfinder would be Weiss, Yang and Adam. Weiss would be a Magus, Yang is a gestalt Brawler-Barbarian and Adam would be a Samurai (Sword Saint).

Grimm being useless, chalk it up to being Overshadowed by Awesome. Or by being way too close to Vale. There are probably more fearsome, more powerful, more... competent Grimm out in the wilderness.


[up]Indeed. Though Jaune could still be Taiyang's kid via another mother.


[up][up]I think combining melee weapons with guns complicates things.

Wild animals can't be threatening, it's against their nature.
