Okay but, can we talk about how soft and caring Weiss is??!? I mean, the expression she makes when she sees Nora is getting better as she’s taking care of her…
Nora started handing everyone their mail. To Ren she handed him his herbal tea subscriptions, to Pyrrha she handed some letters from her fans, and to Jaune she handed him some letters from his family and a red envelope that looks special.
Everyone looks happy, well Pyrrha felt uncomfortable with what they wrote to her, but everyone else felt happy. Then Jaune read the letter that was in the envelope and got sad.
Nora: What’s wrong fearless leader?
Jaune: It’s nothing.
Nora: Come on, tell me.
Jaune: It’s nothing.
Pyrrha: But you look a bit disappointed?
Jaune:*sigh* I tried to be part of a club but they didn’t accept me.
Ren: What kind of club?
Jaune: I’d rather not talk about that.
Inadvertently Nora takes the envelope from her hand and she runs around the room.
Jaune:*Runs after her* Nora! Give it back!
Nora: I just want to know what the club is about.
Jaune: Don’t read it!!
Suddenly Team Rwby enters the room.
Ruby: What’s going on?
Nora: Jaune wasn’t accepted into a club and he doesn’t want to tell us what he is. So I’m going to read what they sent him.
Jaune: Nora no!!!
Yang: I want to hear that. *Stops Jaune with a head lock* Read it!
Jaune: No!!
Nora:*Pulls out the letter*“Mr Arc, my name is Phil from the small wiener club.”
Ruby:*trying not to laugh* Small wiener club?
Nora:“We review your application and information you sent in. But I am sorry to say that we cannot allow you to join our Club”
Yang:*Teasing* Is your little friend too small, Jaune?
Nora:“From what we look at, your wiener is massive.”
Yang: Excuse me?
Nora:“I mean, the sheer girth and juiciness alone is ridiculous. It looks as if somebody glue a forearm to the bottom of your torso”
Weiss:*Blushing* That sounds…
Nora:“You could probably stand on it like a tripod, and that’s not even mentioning how fat your nuts are”
Blake:*Blushing* Is that possible?
Nora:“But it does appear that you’re going to have to take that ginormous schmeat somewhere else. Thank you for trying and the best of luck to you.”
Jaune:*Covering his face* This is so embarrassing.
Pyrrha:*Blushing* Tha-That’s all in the letter?
Nora: Well…. Oh, there are photos inside the envelope!
Pride Weiss!! I hc her to be lesbian, so I drew her in the lesbian flag colors :>
It’s been a hot minute since the last post, sorry about that. I’m really busy with school work at the moment but I hope to make more pride art soon! (Also first scheduled post, I hope it worked lmao)
Ruby, Weiss and Blake all sharemoon imagery, while Yang is associated to the sun. This is an interesting choice because this sun/moon motif is mostly used in the series to convey complementarity. So, it would have made sense to have 2 characters linked to the sun and 2 to the moon.
However, this is not the case and this may have to do with ships, as @hamliet touches on here.
That said, this quick post is really not about romantic couples, but rather how this celestial imagery is used in different ways when it comes to our 4 protagonists and how it comments their arcs.
Yang is the only sun character among the girls and this is immediately used to contrast her with Ruby:
The yellow trailer ends with the reveal that Ruby and Yang are related and this frame strengthens theis moon/sun symbolism, which was already shown in their respective fights.
At the same time, Yang’s sun motif makes her complementary to Blake with her shadowsymbolism:
I would not be surprised if Yang’s sun motif illustrates her journey from Ruby’s big sister always ready to protect her to Blake’s partner that protects and is protected:
In order for it to work, though, Blake herself must grow into her own person. From a fragmented moon tainted in red(Adam):
Througha golden twilight(Yang):
To a moon that can be full even if broken:
Speaking of a cracked moon:
Weiss’s moon rises and reveals its imperfectionand its charm together with our scarred mirror queen:
Weiss’s moon is woundedandfragmented:
But also asymmetricalandbeautiful:
Its fragments are the pieces Jacques splits his daughter in, but also the mirror Weiss shatters to free herself:
I’m shattering the mirror that kept me split in pieces That stood between my mind and my heart This is where I’ll start
Finally, we have Ruby, who starts as full:
Only to slowly reveal the wounds behind her unbroken side. A kid that scattersin an attempt to help others:
And there it is! One burning sun and three broken moons all going through a journey to be wholedespite the hurt. Despite them only being remnants.
This is one of my favorite songs to listen to when drawing. Then I thought this would be a good song to make a rwby/bumbleby/white rose video too. It reflects that they will go through hell for each other. Unfortunately I am not talented with video editing I figured I’d throw out this suggestion out to the fandom. If someone does make a video to this song would love to see the final product!
