FREEZERBURN DIVORCE ARC REAL
Sometimes I just ponder the absurdity of the phrase “Beeunion 3.0″
Like these dramatic gay bitches really had 2 other teary, sappy reunions and now we’re numbering them. Blake will leave her and Yang’s sunny cottage home to buy groceries for 20 minutes and we’ll be labeling her return as Beeunion 4.0
Words can't describe how much I miss and love them
My favorite part about bumbleby is that every single scene of theirs is unbelievable. The initial confrontation with Adam? Peak romance. What if I needed her here for me?? Gay longing. Beeunion 1.0? Tunnel vision. Don’t get me started on the waterfall and beeunion 2.0. Every single scene shocks me more than the last. They really all happened and we still haven’t even seen the culmination of this buildup. I will never stop going “okay THIS is the most romantic we’re gonna get” and that’s so exciting
Pushing my agenda that while Blake didn’t realize the depths of her feelings for Yang until after beacon, Yang realized she was in deep when they finally nailed Bumblebee for the first time. Blake just giving this genuine smile and/or laugh for the first time and Yang is just 😳
Once again thinking about Blake intentionally taking the stab wound from Adam in volume 3 so that she wouldn’t break her aura and would have one clone left. They’re protecting each other your honor
go flex for blake ;-) -bonus:
Keep reading
so i’ve been listening to treasure
I know we’re all feral for bumbleby being the reincarnated faunus princess and human lover, and we’re wondering if the ring and bottle cap will make an appearance in the show. But have we considered that instead of Blake having the ring she found in the comics, she makes her own.
They are currently trapped on an island, after Blake just had Yang emotionally ripped from her. The original ring was carved from a shell. Bumbleby proposal confirmed. I think it’d be a cool way to tie that story into the main show without having to do much backtracking/explaining why we haven’t seen the ring or cap yet.
We all heard Treasure and excitedly said “oh Weiss was MISERABLE”
I just think that we deserve a scene in volume 9 where Blake reveals that she’s been secretly carrying multiple knives on her person the entire time. After all, she’ll need a weapon since Gambol Shroud is missing. And then the original emerald forest scene happens when she finds Yang who she thinks is Neo
breath of the wild au? in the @bumblebybigbang??????? it’s more likely than you think!!!!!
i had the IMENSE pleasure of working with @thecousinsdangereux, who is both awesome and a genius. this comic wouldn’t be half of what it is without her help and support!! in fact it wouldn’t exist at all if not for her fic, hear her in the wind, which you should read right this second!!!! and maybe after you are done come back here and see if you can spot all the references 😉
i was thinking a lot about how ruby’s always the one to say “that’s all that matters” when regarding blake, despite the fact that that phrase is something that comes more from yang to blake. and it got me thinking about ruby’s role in the bees’ relationship.
i’m realizing now that even though adam represents the cursed rose who turned the beast into… you know, the beast. you could also say that ruby represents the rose that brought beauty and the beast together.
ruby as a character has always been an anchor. not only is she a strong leader, but she is a reliable support in any circumstance; always keeping an eye out, being ready to protect her friends in the midst of a fight. but for some reason, out of everyone in team rwby, ruby’s weakest relationship is with blake. and thats why i think it’s so important that she’s the rose in this scenario.
a lot of people will say weiss is the wingman for the bees, but tbh ruby’s been placed in the role of ultimate fucking wingman.
let’s look at the placement of the scenes she says these lines in, too. the first in v5, in the first beeunion.
ruby is speaking on behalf of yang because she knows her sister and she knows that this is what she wants to say. but she also knows that yang needs some help saying it, so she says that. the only thing that matters is that blake is back, then turns to yang for confirmation.
now, let’s also look at the next time she says it: v6, ch 13 following adam’s death.
this one seems less to do with ruby speaking for yang, but more of her speaking to yang. while hugging blake, she gives yang a look, one filled with understanding. she knows how torn up yang was after blake left, and she knows that yang cared for blake despite being upset with her, and she knows that now they’ve helped each other through this pinnacle moment of their life, they can move on. they’re both safe, and that’s all that matters.
Definitely agree, I’ve always viewed Adam more as Gaston and Ruby as the rose. I think Weiss is really interesting in this dynamic too because as you said, she’s been designated as the wingman-or in the case of beauty and the beast- the enchanted mirror.
The mirror was beast’s only connection/window to the outside world. After Yang reunited with Ruby/Weiss in V5, she is still pretending not to care very guarded about Blake, and Weiss is the only one who can give her a different perspective on why Blake might have left- a window into Blake’s thought process. Beast also first admits his love for Belle after letting her go when she uses the mirror and “what if I needed her here for me” was 100% Yang admitting her feelings as best she could at the time.
I was hoping we’d see a little more of this from Blake’s side in V8 since Belle also uses the mirror, but we’ll have to wait and see
A lot of Bumbleby shippers, myself included, believed in Blake tucking her head under Yang's chin supremacy. But I was just struck with the image of the opposite and just...the tenderness. The soft acceptance there. Yang letting herself be held. I'm feeling soft in this apocalypse tonight.
Thinking about Yang’s gay little saunter over to Weiss during the V8 reunion today
I think yang has sort of filled two semi-disparate genre-defying roles over the course of rwby. In the first like 2/3 seasons, she essentially functioned at the unexpectedly strong feminine character (even more so than ruby and blake), which to be fair was an already established trope but it couldn’t have hurt to have a little more, as a treat. The more interesting ground shes tread upon is the role she fills in seasons 4-8 (And I give that timeframe not to imply that her character hasnt changed over that span, salem knows it has, but rather to better encapsulate what I’m trying to get at) The role she fill in these seasons, a primarily butch woman who still very much desires her femininity (and this is something that, as a cis man, I cant really speak to so correct if you believe I’m wrong)— this is much less common, and is also part of the reason we saw such a reversal of fandom expectations of her, *especially* from incels and others like them. Like you look at the way she reacts to seeing the bikes for the first time and thats an explicitly feminine reaction, to a somewhat masculine interest. I just think the places where crwby has been taking yang are interesting.
yeah i mean, i think it’s less so that she’s a butch woman who is still desiring femininity and moreso that she’s just,,,,,,,, free of stereotypical restrictions that typically come along with butch or futch gender expression
speaking as a masc lesbian, my years of being perceived as femme, replicating those perceptions, and associating with femme people means that a lot of my behaviours or ways of moving are still femme or not representative of what’s expected from someone who looks like me,,,,,,,,, my hand movements, the way move voice turns upward at the end of sentences or when i’m excited, these are all things that consciously remind me of my femmeness even while occupying mascness as my aesthetic
i think yang is along these lines as well re: her journey,,,,,,, in the early seasons her behaviour was very femme with hints of masc shining through and i feel like we’ve seen a reversal of this,,,,,,,, when she was separated from people her age for a prolonged period of time and forced to grow into herself without much outside influence, we saw her start to grow into this hypermasc way of being (v4-5 specifically),,,,,,, now, in v8, i think we’re seeing her settle into a solid mix of both as she kind of lets herself just,,,,,,,,,, be
which is why i think i take issue with femme yang so much,,,,,,,, i truly don’t think you can characterize her effectively unless you acknowledge her inherent butchness that underlies the way she moves through the world and through her own identity now,,,,,,,, idk i just wish that there was more work that actively addressed how unique yang is as a character and i think much of that uniqueness is tied to her gender expression and journey over time
The last thing Yang saw both times she almost died was Blake reaching for her
