#they've namedropped villains like Vandal Savage and Brainiac

Ruby using Scarecrow's scythe and Blake using Deathstroke's bo staff and katana (and Weiss possibly using one of Captain Cold's Cold Guns) makes some sense when we see that while in the Hall of Justice they don't have weapons of any kind
Tumblr media
they haven't arrived on Earth with their weapons, so they have to make do with stuff the League have in lockup when they're called in to action
which also explains why the weapons don't really match their aesthetics (the scythe looks more like a genuine farming implement than a weapon that fits Ruby's design, the staff has orange accents which don't match with Blake's outfit), they're just using borrowed gear because they don't have time to make their own

#i do like that while we don't know this iteration of the League super well #but in big and small ways they're threading in how established they are #the banners in the background hint to a larger team than the 8 we see #because Aquaman's symbol is there and presumably Martian Manhunter's #they've namedropped villains like Vandal Savage and Brainiac #and the weapons obviously link to other villains #maybe we'll get a scene where RWBY are grabbing this gear and it'll just be a /bunch/ of references and easter eggs #that'll be fun
