Clothes make the (Wo)Man

Okay, look here. This is how Team STRQ dressed in the past, when they were teenagers.

Now, look here. this is how Team STRQ is dressed when they first appear in the series proper.

Nothing's changed much, has it?

Now, later on, after getting a severe wake-up call in V6, Qrow changes his outfit.

And, when we meet Summer Rose and learn more about her, she's dressed like this:

Is there some kind of correlation between character development and wardrobe?

Probably. Very probably.

So this is another RWBY poll:

In order to fill in a minor/huge plot-hole in the RWBY story (depending on your view). I decided to ask my viewers (anyone, really) to vote on Ruby's days back in Signal academy. Because I find it really strange that she never once mentioned any of her classmates or other faculty members (besides Qrow) during her time at Signal indicating that she kept to herself (loner) or she's probably a sociopath. Either those 2 or CRWBY is a hack! This is the kind of questions that kept me up at night btw.

One logical conclusion I can take from this is that Ruby was "bullied" back in Signal and thats why she never mentioned or even bothering contacting anyone in the academy. This explains why Ruby was so eager to leave everything behind the moment an opportunity arise. And also why she wanted to make as many friends as she can in Beacon. And why I think Ruby's personality is the way it is. Her happy, bubbly personality is actually a facade to hide her depression...

Anyway I want y'all to choose which one do you like the most? And yes, this will connect to my main RWBY fic.

Why Ruby never mention her time in Signal Academy?

Ruby is hated by everyone.

Ruby can't connect to anyone.

Everyone is jealous of Ruby.

Everyone is weirded out by Ruby.

Ruby is betrayed by her closest friends

And not to worry Ruby will get her "vengeance" so to speak in the end....

I'm choosing to believe that Yang was actually born somewhere in West Sanus / Vacuo before the Xiao Long family settled down on Patch Island.

I'm also choosing to believe that Blake was born in Mistral or Mistral-adjacent.

This way, we can say each member of Team RWBY represents a different major nation on Remnant.

Ruby - Vale

Weiss - Atlas

Blake - Mistral

Yang - Vacuo
