It's like LSBK mentioned, we don't really know when they got married and what was their job locations when they did. They could been largely separate, like two nurses that work at different hospitals getting married.

I don't really see why that should matter. Good idea or not, if being with that person makes you happy (and that person is happy being with you) then you have every right to be with that person. Especially since the team thing seems to largely just apply to the students. Every adult Hunter we've seen so far usually flies solo.

Telling someone something is a bad idea isn't the same thing as forbidding them to do it, at least once they're out of the academy. I, nor anyone else as far as I can tell, ever said the relationships should be illegal, just discouraged for what should be obvious reasons.

It really seems like a lot of you are taking a very simple thing to other places that were never stated or even implied.

when your setting is a death world practically I imagine that one is going to potentially get attracted to people they work with. Especially if your partnered with someone for the next four years of your training. The thing is there is no mention of when Raven and Taiyang got together especially since there is no age listed for any of the adults. At best we just know about two years after Yang is born Summer and Taiyang were in a relationship.

Anyway, I listened to Nora's character song or whatever, and wow, the whole thing is about how she just Can't Spit It Out. That's kind of sad.

How many character songs are there? Too important.

Boop (Nora doing her darnedest to explain her feelings)

Burn (Yang hyping herself)

Neon (Neon Katt hyping herself while taking as many shots at Yang's song as possible)

Red Like Roses (obvious, though Part II cinches it)

From Shadows/Die are tied for Blake's character song. Personally I always attributed "Die" to Neo, but it doesn't seem to have any relevance toward her. Still this is what I imagine as her ass-kicking music.

It's My Turn (Weiss)

Shine (Team JNPR I guess.)

I'm the One (Mercury)

Weiss also has "Mirror Mirror," and Mercury shares "I'm the One" with Emerald (his part is just way more memorable). You could also say that "Divide" is Salem's.

I've heard "Sacrifice" is Cinder's, "Not fall in love with you" is Sun's, "All our Days" is Yang to Ruby, "Caffeine" is CFVY's hype music, "Dreams come true" is Pyhrra and maybe "Shine" while "Cold" is Jaune's.

#42162: Nov 23rd 2016 at 10:36:07 PM

Yeah, I forgot Caffeine (Team CFVY), Sacrifice (Cinder), and probably I May Fall (Pyrrha or Penny) too.[nja]

Huh, I didn't think I'm The One was shared with Emerald but I can hear it. Casey's vocals support Jeff's in that one, so it could be "Mercury and Emerald" singing. Just never looked at it that way.

I liked Cinder's villain song over Salem's. Sacrifice gave me the vibe Cinder wasn't all she seemed, it spoke to some unseen character depth. Divide is just Salem being a hobknocker.

Though it does make the increasing mystery of who or what Ozpin is exactly, and what he did, all the more appetizing.

I like both "Sacrifice" and "Divide", the latter I consider more epic while the former I think is more ominous. Also totally waiting for a proper Cinder flashback episode.

Shine's a love-song from Pyrrha to Jaune.

[up][up][up] Look at the lyrics to "I'm the One." Emerald is clearly one of the points of view: she describes using illusions to alter minds and being a thief in her verses, and the shared bits have lyrics about both of their fights. It's actually divided very evenly between the two. Her singing about her abilities just doesn't leave the same impression as Mercury's raw anger at his father, plus the song played primarily while he was fighting.

In short whenever Jeff is singing it's Mercury and whenever Casey is singing it's Emerald, with the lines that they're both singing being the things that cover both characters. I'd say it was one of my favourite volume 3 songs but that would imply I could actually rank them.

Holy crap, this song actually has words!?

While this is one of the songs where I barely paid attention to the words and just started head-banging recklessly, and I probably could go back and find something in the lyrics, er, I mainly go by whoever I see in the music videos. :p

In all seriousness, now that I'm actually looking at the words I see what you mean. Problem is I could barely hear what Casey was saying short of some of the chorus.

"I'm the one, that was born in a nightmare, a murderer's sooon! Gooot nooo guuuuun, but I gleam like a blade and I'm harder than iron!"

"I'm the one who rose out of filth and was loved by no-one! Deeeeelluuuussssssioons! I'll steal till you're blind and defeat you from inside your mind!"

Dang, so they're arguing about whose had it worse. Hope this comes up in Volume 4 in some fashion.

They'll have that as an idle conversation when not waiting on Cinder hand and foot and get heated about it until Salem rocks up and offers the tentacle ball Grimm as an arbiter to objectively determine their feud. They will then politely decline and hide out under Cinder's bed.

Seriously though that could be a RWBY Chibi short; Mercury and Emerald doing normal things and Salem showing up and making it all weird and ominous.

With the inter team relationships I'd like to point out that teams are only for the 4 years they are in an academy, during which yeah that's probably inadvisable, but once they graduate teams are done. Pro Hunter's are free to work with anyone they want, or go it entirely alone and while some teams do still together most don't.

By the time Tai and Raven or Summer got serious, they were likely out of school and were free to do what they want. They might not have even been technically working with each other at that point. Indeed Summer took missions solo, while Taiyang was a teacher by the time Ruby and Yang were kids.

So yeah, unless you're arguing that any kind of hunter relationships are bad, there's no real issues here.

Honestly, it'd be easier to list vocal tracks that aren't character songs.
