Yang: You know I never figured out why they call these things Jawbreakers.

Weiss: I mean, if you try and bite-

Yang: *CRUNCH*

Weiss: ...

Weiss: Well that's completely terrifying.

Chinese Alligators have blunter teeth than most other alligators, which allows them to crush hard shells of shellfish (crustaceans, Mollusks, ETC).

~~~~~

Weiss: I can't wait to meet your father Yang. If he's anything like you, then I know Zwei has been in good hands.

Yang: Cool. Also, just so you know, because I was born in vale someof my Subadaptations as a faunus are different from his.

Weiss: Ooookay?

Tai: Hey honey!

Yang: *Hugging him, a full head taller than him* Hey dad!

The Chinese alligator is only 7 feet long at most, Males being larger, While Female American crocodiles are on average 8.2 feet, with males being larger.

~~~~~

Blake: ... Your eyebrows are super hot.

Yang: Oh! Uh- uh, Thanks? Blakey?

Chinese Alligators have an brow ridge that isn't present in American species.

~~~~~

Raven: If you were ascribe a color to her, what would you give her?

Tai: ... Yellow.

Alligators are hatched with yellow bands across their body, that fade as their scales become darker while they grow.

~~~~~

Yang: Morning Blakey~

Blake: hey Yang~

Yang: Jaune, how you feeling after last night?

Jaune: Sore.

Yang: Aw, that sucks. Sun?

Sun: ... I didn't know losing my virginity would be so intense ...

Chinese Alligators engage in Polyamory during mating season, with males breeding multiple females, and Females breeding with multiple males.

~~~~~

Ruby: What a perfect time for a midnight snack.

Weiss: It's never a good time for a - AAAHH!

Ruby: WHAT?

Yang: What's wrong?

Weiss: OH! It's just you, Yang. Why are you up?

Yang: Midnight snack.

Alligators become more nocturnal during the summer to avoid humans and excessive heat.

Scene: Blake and Sun are playing Poker. Yang is sitting next to Blake.

Blake: Alright, Sun. I'll go all in if you do.

Sun: With what? You don't got any more chips to bet with.

Blake: No. But I'm betting Yang.

Yang: Wait, what?

Blake; Yang, go with me. I've got it all figured out. I've done the math.

One hand later...

Blake: Fuck, I'm bad at math.

Yang is now on her knees, sucking Sun's dick

Yang: *pops Sun out her mouth* You bet me on a pair of two's?!

Blake: I thought he was bluffing.

Sun: *holding four aces* Never bet against the Monkey Kong, baby~

Yang: *grumbles as she starts giving Sun a boobjob* Stupid monkey...

Blake: Damn this is hot...

I think Sun & Yang would treat Pyrrha a lot better than Jaune as a partner. She said he was the only one who treated her normally instead of like a celebrity. But honestly I'm not buying that. These two would totally notice her struggles and help her cope with her anxieties and pressure of being idolized.

So true we stand Greek Fyre and Nikong in this household.

Where's my team SPRN, another blonde deserves main character syndrome and it's my monkey boi-

And him, Pyrrha and Yang can kiss.

(hey...its been a while...how goes?)

Dreaming in wonderland. A little something for everyone here.

Yang for the character opinion list, please !

You didn't specify a number, so I'll just answer them all!

1: overall thoughts

I adore Yang. She is 100% my favorite member of team RWBY. I love her gauntlets and her hair and her motorcycle, and her personality (especially in the first couple volumes). I think she's had the most/best character development of the four main girls as well.

2: favorite outfit

I think it goes without saying that her Hunter outfit is her greatest hit

(they've done my girl so dirty in the costume department ever since v4)

3: otp

Honestly I've been a sucker for Sunflowyr (Yang x Ren) ever since @chiicharron was making art for them. It's a total crackship but I suppose I'm set in my ways

Solarflares is also good

4: notp

Buzz buzz

5: favorite headcanon

I just headcanon her as happy

Solarflare (Sun/Yang)

ask meme

DON'T SHIP IT

Why don't you ship it? - It's Yang. I don't like Yang, and I think she's one of the worst characters in the show even though I can't even fault her for the way she is because her writers are misogynistic creeps. That being said, I just think Yang is very unpleasant due to how she treats people who are not Blake like trash in the recent volumes, like how she would dukes up against her uncle who tried to be calm (Vol 6), betrays Ironwood the second she got into the field as a professional (Vol 7), berates Ren for being rightfully angry at the dire situation that THEY got themselves into (Vol 8), and treated Ruby, her fucking sister, like shit until Ruby gave up (Vol 9). She and Blake need to stay the fuck away from Sun, because toxic ass bitches deserve each other.

What would have made you like it? - LET THEM INTERACT. Holy shit, they have so much potential with each other if RT weren't such cowards; let them go to the gym together, let them play video games together, let them get into shenanigans together PLEASE. Anything would've been great. And again, if Yang wasn't such a cunt I would've liked it more.

Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it? - I'm a sucker for the sunshine couple vibe they have during the Beacon Era. And again, they would've been great gym buddies and Sun would fucking BE THERE for Yang emotionally and help her through her struggles without infantilizing her like Blake did in Vol 6.

Breif rundown of the panel:

Talked about the DC Crossover (and that Yang and Weiss have a Type)

How different it is voicing a dub of your character who is in a lot of ways you helped create (about IceQueendom)

The actors being aware of the passage of time and that some fans started watching RWBY when they were in elementary school

Biggest growth: Weiss - identity outside of her family. Blake - trusting and rebuilding relationships. Yang - abandonment and learning people leaving isn't about you, it's about them (and a "Sorry!" From Arryn). Ruby - trusting and choosing herself, not just following roles placed on her.

Barb and Arryn thought the bees were beautiful, of course, and well paced even if Arryn was impatient having to wait 10 years.

Fave volume to voice: immediately for Lindsay and Arryn 9, Kara 9 and 4, Barb 9 and 5

Don't remember specific question (hardest scene maybe? Or hurt them the most?): Lindsay said the tea party was hard for them to voice from an acting standpoint and getting into those emotions. Kara said talking to herself and making sure the right emotions were coming through was hard. Arryn got distracted and talked about how dark it was for Neo to have nothing left and that Hawker died. She did mention the acting with Apthy was hard (and her long monologue in V5 after burning her house down). Lindsay pointed out it didn't have to be dark and that they knew the bees scene was hard because they wanted to make sure it was right. Barb said it was that no one gave her a high five. Truly, the worst thing.

They all loved Weiss's "mature" line, and joked about daddy issues, but Barb mentioned Weiss is used to dealing with things herself and would need someone who could match her.

Arryn HATES Sun's line "I knew you'd look better without the bow". "Bees are canon now, baby! Back off!"

Lindsay said Ruby helps remind her to get out there and meet more people. Barb said the love the fandom shows them and playing a confident character makes her want to be more confident.

When asked about switching bodies with characters Lindsay said Weiss so Ruby could run around the Schnee mansion. Arryn was going to say Blake and Yang but "they'd just be touching the same parts" (and she lost it). Barb suggested Zwei for her cause cat and dog switch. Barb said Raven because mommy issues and so they both could learn about each other.

Crack ships: Lindsay said Sncheekos, Arryn just likes the name Pussy magnet, Barb insisted Yang isn't straight, but Solarflare would be the ultimate bromance.

And all of them love Nora and Zwei

Are you cool with expanding on the next generation of Team RWBY/AKA on their children?

Hell yeah, I love these lil' gremlins.

Just for this ask, obviously it's the kids that are from specifically Team RWBY, but that means one of the main team isn't included since he's just Adam/Zanthus' kid.

Obviously we have Sun Guiying, who's arguably the main protagonist of the sequel and is the Strawbana child!

She's the only child between Sun and Ruby, and was raised in Vale City with Sun, since Sun as Ozpin's next host had to be near Beacon to help Glynda with the Academy. But Ruby as a Huntress takes her job very seriously, it's something she''s always wanted to do since she was a kid, but that desire does sometimes eclipse her duties as Guiying's mother.

Ruby is by no means a BAD mother, she's actually good when she's there, she just needs to remember to actually be there. The issue is that this is part of what feeds into Guiying's inferiority issues.

Because silver eyes becomes more common knowledge in the RWBY future, and when you hear so many stories of how your mum, nan and uncle and aunts, and even one of her cousins all had these cool eyes, and you don't, it's a little hard not to feel sensitive about it.

Which is why Guiying is represented by the blue rose. She's copying Ruby's path, becoming a Huntress, always ready to jump into the fight, because she's partially fueled by the desire to be like them. She wants to be special without really understanding just how much trauma the silver eyes have brought Ruby.

Her allusion is the Vermillion Bird, or the Monkey Zodiac for a minor one. As well as that, her Semblance is Solarflare, the ability to teleport through ports of light similar to Ruby's Petal Burst, while keeping Sun's Via Sun light theme.

Then we have the Monochrome triplets, starting with:

Chandra Schnee, the main Monochrome child and Guiying's team leader for Team CSYN (Cyan).

Now I made Chandra to almost be a foil for Guiying. She's everything Guiying wanted. She's smart, she's had the familial attention, she has the Schnee Semblance, and Chandra is very much the girl who doesn't think twice about it. She's worked for it, so she got it.

Very much an opinionated person who's a self-admitted perfectionist. Weiss and Blake learned from their own past mistakes and tried to raise Chandra to not repeat them, but that ego is pretty much a family genetic trait at this point.

Her love for fighting and showing her skills does have some downsides besides alienating her teammate, and that's because while training when she was younger, she accidentily scarred her sister, Merrill. It was a sobering moment for her, which pushed Chandra to take her work very seriously because she knows just what she's capable of.

So because Chandra is so grounded in reality, she does butt heads with Guiying and her more idealised view of becoming a Huntsman.

She's also the White Tiger for her team's Four Gods allusions. As mentioned before, she has the Schnee Glyph Semblance like Weiss and Whitley, but the Schnee Semblance has a glyph unique to each weilder.

Chandra's is Ice Clones. Her glyph allows her to summon up to three ice clones of herself to fight with her. They don't have aura and are fragile, but the extra numbers helps her for support or allow Chandra a distraction to retreat or retaliate.

Wisteria is technically the oldest triplet, as much as you can be, and she's the one who decided to go into business and continue the downscaled SDC after Weiss and Whitley, since Whitley himself doesn't have any kids.

All three of the triplets were taught combat for self defense, but while Chandra went to the Huntsmen Academies and Merrill went into the military, Wisteria didn't and went into business instead.

But while she's not the strongest, she's the smartest, and they know it. Not only from an analytical way, as she's a wizz with numbers and economics, but she's very much a people's person with a sharp eye for spotting out behaviours. Chandra is too egotistical and Merrill is too blunt.

So her design takes more after Weiss' when she was home in Atlas, but redesigned to suit both Wisteria's colour pallete and the bow motif that was canon Blake's.

Her allusion is the wisteria tree in Japanese culture, symbolising longevity and love, as her love and desire to see her family continue is a major part of her character. Her Semblance has been unlocked through her trainin, but she doesn't have the Schnee Semblance like her two sisters.

Instead, her Semblance is Hysteria. By releasing small purple petals around her, the pheromones that they emit will induce drowsiness, nausea and even cause some people to hallucinate. The pheromones are odorless, so an enemy won’t discover it through smell until they’ve already inhaled it.

Merrill is the last Monochrome triplet who decided to go into the military, so her design went more into the formal military wear that Atlas operatives commonly wear. She's not old enough to go further up the ranks, since she's seventeen at the start of the story, but she has some promising abilities that could propel her.

She's also the only triplet that inherited Blake's ears. As the most apparent Faunus, even with the other two triplets being known for their Faunus mother, Merrill gets the worst for her ears, especially since she stayed in Atlas with her mothers and Wisteria, while Chandra went to Menagerie.

After her incident with Chandra that left her blind in her left eye, Merrill does anything to hide away any reminder of the accident on her face, with her styled fringe and abversion to anything that might bring it up. She doesn't hate Chandra for it, but she very much blames her and the two aren't as close as they were as kids.

Other than that, she very much plays up the disciplined solider persona to try and hide away anything that would be seen as outside the norm. She wants to be left alone to fit in with everyone else, but underneath the strict stoicness, she has a very volatile temper.

Her allusion is the Matagot, the French cat that is either evil or good, and brings wealth to your home if fed.

Like Chandra, Merrill inherited the Schnee Semblance and can summon Glyphs, with her unique glyph being Void. She creates a glyph with a black hole in the middle, allowing Merrill to absorb any attack, or even push people in, and neutralise them. Obviously if you fall into it, you kinda die.

The last one of the Team RWBY kids is Eirian and Yang's two kids, starting with:

Xiaolong Yinyue, their son and the third member of Team CSYN. He's also Guiying's cousin.

A very laidback type of guy, he's great when with the more childish Guiying and arrogant Chandra, but that laidback nature came because he was trained from a very young age to remmeber to keep his emotions in check, knowing the true story behind how Yang lost her arm.

Those lessons stuck with him, making him almost a mediator type who is very hard to push. He does have his own struggles, of course, he struggles knowing what his place in the world is. Yinyue went to the Huntsmen Acadmies because he doesn't know what else to do, rather mirroring Yang's own struggles when she was youger.

He just does what Guiying does. So long as she's happy, then he's happy, but spending your entire life making sure everyone else in comfortable left him floundering on what to do when he isn't needed anymore.

His allusion is the Azure Dragon, he very much keeps Yang's dragon motif while having Eirian's cool blue colouring. His semblance is Yin Release. With his own Aura, he can make phantom creatures, though he seems to prefer making dragons.

The last child of Golen Fleece and this ask is Eluhlaza Esna, Yinyue's older sister.

While she is the oldest, she's not very mature and very much struggles with her anxiety, pretty much willingly letting Yinyue handle things whenever she can. She'll do it if pushed, but things can easily go wrong and push her back into her shell.

But her lack of courage is replaced with a deep love and pride in her younger brother. Eluhlaza is Yinyue's biggest cheerleader and encouraged him to try and find his place in the Huntsman Academies, since she knew he had been struggling with his self identity for a long time.

Like Yinyue, Eluhlaza was given some training when she was younger, but she very much is not a fighter like the rest of her family. She hates it.

Her allusion is the Lightning Bird from Zulu mythology, and had managed to unlock her Semblance; Overcharge. By converting energy, she is able to charge up to the point of generating sparks, inflicting electrical damage. A side effect of this is her body overheats so much that her hair starts burning like Yang's.

That's all the kids for Team RWBY either way, though!

1, 5, 7, 26

1 - What OTPs in your fandom do you just not get?

For me, I think this one is going to have to be Bumblebee. I can see why Yang would like Blake, but I just don't like Yang enough to see what Blake could possibly see in her, she's just... yeah, I don't see it.

5 - Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you?

I'm going to say no, actually. There are certain aspects of the way fandom treats certain pairings that I don't like - like you, I'm not all that keen on a lot of 'fanon Arkos' but I can still appreciate the thing on its own terms, as I see it.

7 - Is there anything you used to like but can't stand now?

If we're going beyond pairings then Ruby Rose. I used to like her, I used to think she was an alright lead character, but now I can't stand her, she's just an awful, self-righteous, nagging scold now, go away.

If we're talking about pairings specifically then... 'can't stand' is very strong but I've definitely cooled a lot on BlackSun. I used to like it but... I suppose there came a point when it was very hard to say why I liked it. Ironically this wasn't helped by reading a fic which is actually a BlackSun fic but I just found the Solarflare teasing so much better written that it made the BlackSun feel very shallow by comparison and I haven't been able to look at it the same way since.

26 - Most shippable character

I'm actually going to range outside of RWBY for this one and say Twilight Sparkle, who is probably the character I've shipped with the most other characters across all of my fanfics. I've shipped her with Sunset Shimmer, with someone else's OC, with one of my own OCs (and in the same series suggested that Rainbow Dash has a crush on her).

[rwby-encrusted-blog]

Sun: *Lifting Blake* What's going on in there?

Blake: They're having a conversation!

Sun: Darn it! She was supposed to sneak out to see us, her boyfriend and Girlfriend that she definitely has!

Blake: ... Why did you feel the need to say it like that?

Taiyang: And just where do you think you're going, young lady?

Yang: Um... Sneaking out to go make out with my boyfriend and or girlfriend that I definitely have?

Taiyang: HAHAHAHA! Ah... Seriously, though.

[dragynkeep]

Gonna say.. I have never seen Blake show sexual or romantic attraction to anyone. Id have loved to see her date some people AND then realize it isnt for her. That she doesnt need romantic and sexual love to feel loved you know? This is also because i believe in Sun x Yang supremacy cause HE KNOWS HOW TO TREAT WOMEN RIGHT. But anyways. We need AroAce Blake canon. We need AroAce Ruby to be camon to but that's another story.

Solarflare is such a good ship because, before the writers fucked them up, Yang and Sun would work so well together. Even in a post-FOB Solarflare, Sun's more carefree attitude and refusal to abandon someone who needs him would be what Yang needs.

She needs someone to finally chose her. She needs someone who was like who she was, who could bring the fun back that she's missing and the emotional support without strings attached. The worst I could think of this ship is that Sun's foot in mouth syndrome could piss Yang off while she's still figuring things out, but that's what healthy communication is for.
