I came across an interesting headcanon/theory that Rosebird aka Summer Rose and Raven Branwen are Yang's biological parents, while Tai's her adoptive father.
That got me wondering where Yang's blonde hair comes from if that was the case. It's already a different blonde to Tai's, rather brighter. More golden. I don't know exactly how hair genetics works in reality, and the rules seem different in Remnant from what little I do know anyway.
Maybe her hair was once more like Raven's, or in the case of this headcanon, maybe more like Summer's or something in between. Maybe Yang secretly bleaches/dyes her hair. Maybe her Semblance permanently changed the colour the first time it set her hair aglow/ablaze.

[Ruby stands by the window , looking at the sandstorm]
Raven - [walks into the room]
Ruby - Get out …
Raven - It helps if you talk about it
Ruby - What would you know ? I don’t know what you did with my mom , but I do know that you didn’t bother to know us afterward
Raven - I didn’t ….I did however spend over a decade in mourning on my own . I don’t know how it will turn out , but maybe leaning on your friends a little would be better than letting it make you bitter
[Ruby gripped the curtain hard]
Raven - Take it from someone who also lost the one they loved ….don’t let the grief ruin you too

I'm bored and am in a RWBY mood.
SO HERE ARE MY 10 FAVORITE RWBY SHIPS IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER!
(Note: This is not a best ships list. This is a ships I personally like list. It literally means only that. If have you have different opinions than me, that's good.)
White Rose: Because come on. Come on! How could I not?
Tumblr media
Bumbleby: Again, COME ON!
Tumblr media
Crosshares: I am already out of reasons for obvious choices. They're just cute man
Tumblr media
Renora: They can't all be gay ships. Hell do I even need to give a reason for this one?
Tumblr media
Monochrome: Honestly I ship them because of a single artist who keeps drawing them and converted me to their way. They know who they are.
Tumblr media
Nuts and Dolts: Amazing dynamic! These two together are just sensational together
Tumblr media
Rosebird: Summer would attach herself to this woman and never let go until she starts being happy. And honestly, that's what Raven needs.
Tumblr media
Strawberry Shortcake: I don't know how this happened. I read one fic and suddenly I was trapped in rarepair hell again
Tumblr media
Ladybug: It's just adorable. At this point, put Blake with anybody, just don't leave her alone!
Tumblr media
And I know I said in no particular order. But that doesn't apply to this one cause this is my favorite ship and I suffer for it.
Milk and Cereal: I cannot tell you how much I wish there was more for these two! 269 fics on Ao3 is what I'm working with. And if we exclude the multiship fics it's even less! I NEED MORE! I'm reaching the "Fuck it! I'll do myself!" stage!
Tumblr media
Honorable mention to literally any ship that doesn't include Adam, Cinder, or Torchwick. All ships are great, but those three specifically can fuck off.
Also, Arkos is a good ship, and I would have it on here... But I see too much Jaune in my fic hunts. I just need a break from him.
I'm off to go force my brain into overdrive for fic ideas now.

Okay maybe I’m still riding the rosebird high from the end of v9 but just imagine for a minute that we gets conversation where yang tells raven about her relationship with Blake. Maybe yang talks about coming to terms with her own sexuality and raven using that as an opportunity to connect by mentioning her feelings for summer. As raven is explaining their whole relationship yang is just 404 error small dragon of sunshine not found.
Anyways I’d totally read a fic an idea like this. And If we somehow do get cannon rosebird I feel like yang would have a hard time accepting that it at first

okay but I am still just delighted at how the Rosebird date night flashback recontextualizes just about every Raven scene in V5
like for instance, it makes very clear that her conversation with Leo is saying a lot more about her than it is about him, even outside of “You did what you had to do to survive, there’s no shame in that”:
Tumblr media
(sure, Raven)
But as we saw at the beginning of the volume, Salem doesn’t actually have anything on Leo, he’s just scared of her; if she were blackmailing him she would have mentioned that too:
Tumblr media
It’s Raven she actually has something on, because they’ve met before and it went horrifically. Remember how Salem words her instructions to Cinder before dispatching her to Mistral:
Tumblr media
Sending her followers right to Raven’s doorstep is basically telling her, “Knock, knock, asshole, remember what you let me do to your wife? Want to see me do it again?”
Raven does Not want to see her do it again, and so she attempts to Xanatos Speed Chess her way out of it
unfortunately she sucks at all kinds of chess

I really liked that finale overall, but NGL the lack of like, any mention or hint of Penny kinda stung, not gonna lie. As a Neo stan, I'm winning. As a rosebird conspiracy theorist, I'm winning. But as an NND fan, oof.
At least we have Red Like Roses Part 3 to make up for it

tmw Doom Patrol is punching my BB shipping side cause the window fall scene and painting scene are straight up BB vibes; and has me multishipping as a result.
Spoilers for Doom Patrol 4x09 (if a single out of context screenshot counts) below the cut:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sunshine girl x complicated walled up dark girl w/ a core through line that has them understanding elements that forges a bond between them is a weakness. xD And for any crossovers this 100% also goes to Wenclair too, but focusing on these two pairs.
Not to mention a bit of Rita/Laura vibing with Rosebird now that I think about it o.o

Team STRQ ships please:
Hummingbird (Qrow x Summer)
Phoenix (Raven x Taiyang)
Snapdragon (?) (Summer x Taiyang)
Rosebird (Raven x Summer)
Taiqrow (Taiyang x Qrow)
ask meme
Long post ahead
Hummingbird (Qrow x Summer)
Tumblr media
God damn, if I sound disinterest in any of these ships, I am sorry. But fucking Qrow and Raven makes the already lackluster dynamic of STRQ worse, on so many levels. We already have shit with Tai and Summer, and Qrow is fucking bloating the cast up with his whiny ass. I'll get to Raven later.
Back to the ship, I just do not like Qrow at all, and Summer's latest information dump makes her so weird as an entity. Did she straight up LIED to her husband, who she knows was emotionally destroyed by the same bitch she's about to team up with? Or did she truly not know about her demise because she was overconfident in her own abilities against Salem?
And the emblem never fucking made sense, because before V9, there's nothing much that can tell us about Summer as a person or even an active force in Ruby's life aside from some "tell, not show" from Yang and Qrow. None of that alluded to the rose emblem or how it affected Ruby as person when her mother disappeared.
These two characters literally have nothing that makes me care about them as individuals, let alone fucking partners in a relationship. Not to mention, rabid Hummingbird stans are just as annoying as Bee/s when it comes to Tai. Guys, Qrow doesn't need to be Ruby's bio parent for them to have a strong bond, stop diminishing Tai's already tiny role from her life to push your ship. I cannot stand Qrow's whiny ass as it is right now, having him be an active absentee parent like his twin will make me hate him more.
Phoenix (Taiyang x Raven)
Tumblr media
Same reasoning here for these two, with Tai as Summer and Raven as Qrow. Raven need to stay the fuck away from Tai, and this is coming from a person who eat up toxic dynamics for lunch.
Raven is just insufferable, and fans can make her more complex than canon ever can. But because we never know why she canonically abandoned her family, including her infant daughter, Raven just comes off as a shallow, selfish bitch who would hang with criminals who hit on her child than be with the people who love her despite her past.
If that was the case, FINE. Whatever, but then the show goes on to villainize Ozpin and blaming him for her reasons to leave. If Raven was scared of Ozpin, why did she team up with someone directly working for his antithesis, Salem? Then Lost Fables comes out, and it turns out Ozpin didn't even curse her and Qrow with magic, because they kept transforming willy-nilly with no consequences at all. Blame Salem for your issues if you want to avoid your responsibilities, you bitch.
And Tai...poor Tai. He's not a perfect parent, but goddamn he is the BEST when you use the likes of Jacques, Raven or even Ghira as comparisons. Yet he was villainized by the FNDM and Qrow is heralded as a good adult figure for Ruby when it was TAI who raised them for most of their lives. No one has to like Tai and his parenting can be criticize, but he is not the worse parent ever when fucking Salem is still around.
So yeah. Not my fav. Like, at all. And I deadass can make a better storyline for them as individuals and as a dynamic.
Snapdragon (Taiyang x Summer)
Tumblr media
Oh man...again, the fucking reveal for Summer in V9 truly diminished a good majority of my enjoyment of this ship. Again, if Summer KNEW about her demise, she willingly left her husband with their children to go with someone who betrayed them both, not even thinking about how he would take losing ANOTHER person he love.
I just enjoy fanon so much more for them, because there Summer and Tai are actually treated with respect. For example, my moot @bunbunsophy made an amazing art piece of evil!Summer inspired by Makima from Chainsaw Man, and it was an amazing foundation for an AU where Summer manipulated everyone around her to her desires, especially Tai. It create this angsty goodness where he has become her toy, heartbroken but broken as well to do her biddings with no will to fight back because he loves her. This is his wife, mother of his daughters, and without her Taiyang will be alone.
Literally ANYTHING would've made this ship interesting, but canonically, they're bland as fuck.
Rosebird (Raven x Summer)
Tumblr media
Fuck Rosebird shippers who refuse to include trans!Raven or trans!Summer into the dynamic in order to make Yang and Ruby. Do not fucking breathe near me.
Other than that; same shit as Hummingbird, but so much worse. Raven is a bitch, and it was clear in V9 that Summer cannot stand her ass. Not to mention that stupid ass panel in the DC crossover comic where bird Raven shat on Summer to Ruby. Like bitch, that is mad rich for you to judge Summer as a person WHEN YOU ABANDONED YOUR OWN CHILD. Fuck her.
Personally, I like the take where they were partners in Beacon instead of being Tai or Qrow's, because the betrayal between them will feel more personal like the boys' instead of "we were in the same team and she hurt the two men we both care about and I'm just here." I'm not saying that they can't be friends outside of partnership, but the partnership creates this unique bond that neither shares with Tai and Qrow; Summer trusted Raven to watch her back in battle, Raven grew close to her as a friends and someone she will die for, they know each other's fighting style to a detailed level and played off of each other so well that it's almost tragic when Raven left.
And when that scene in V9 happened, you feel that bitterness from Summer so much more because this was her partner who preferred something bad more than her. Maybe then I'll lean into this ship more, but right now it doesn't spark the least bit of joy.
TaiQrow/Mourning Dove (Taiyang x Qrow)
Tumblr media
Same sentiment here; I just don't care about Qrow because he's a terrible character, and Tai barely got anything to himself.
But holy hell, going off of the partnership AU between them, the fallout between these two would've been tragically beautiful; they understand each other in ways neither Summer or Raven could, and at the end of it all they were the only ones left behind. But because of the pain left behind for them, they grow apart even though it kills them everytime they raised their voice, every time Qrow pick up another bottle after Tai begged him to stop, every time Qrow had to snap Tai out of his depression for his girls and yet Tai cannot shine as brightly as he could anymore.
All that was left was resentment, burying a layer of hope that will always yearn for the THEM of before, or at least something close enough because they still love each other.
But canon hates them and they hate us more. So you know.
Thanks for the ask!

What jobs/professions do you think the rosebird/str family would have in a modern au?
okayyyyy get ready for my ramblings because i have a ton of AUs in a “modern” setting and i have explored so many ideas its crazy. long story short the yang & ruby and their silly little strq family torture chamber is real...
Summer: media consultant or prop stylist for a magazine (i like the second one a lot lmao). Something hands on that also maintains a leadership role. Please just imagine her in a team meeting/video-call with yang or ruby sitting in her lap. You just know the str-family house goes crazy with holiday decorating because of course summer’s work life bleeds into their home life.
* Big contrast to the other stuff but i have also considered things related to disaster response for her, that's more for AUs where i want everyone to struggle with her death & i’m assuming you asked me this question to begin with because you know i love pretending nothing bad has happened EVER. 
Tai: teacher is the easy choice but it’s very fitting for him. something between 3rd-5th grade is what i like to land on. There’s also stuff like carpenter and contractor that i really really like, or even mechanic & the added bonus of these careers is that you can tack on an instructor role to them. Carpenter tai that gives woodshop classes part-time at a highschool, or mechanic tai that has a weekend class teaching auto maintenance. I’m sure he taught yang & ruby everything he knows.
Raven: this one is interesting because i personally think you can make her the one that stays at home because of trouble holding down a job. And you can explore how that juggle with employment & unemployment affects her which is fun if you like dissecting ravens character. BUTTTT my favorite career for her is owning a music shop with qrow :^) you can also make her a mechanic along with tai & they own an auto body shop together, i think it’s funny to imagine her keeping a project car in the driveway. Probably got yang her bike and said “if you can get the engine running again it’s all yours.”
Other jobs i have considered: all of them being teachers (summer & tai for younger levels & raven for older levels), the whole str-family can own a bakery because i’m sure someone will wonder why i didn’t mention that with summer, tai & summer with a flower shop, maybeeee summer & raven are the ones that own a music shop together (teehee). can you guys even imagine mechanic summer- OKAY i'm ending this post before i hurt myself

hiya!
🍊 Who’s a character you don’t write for that often, but keep meaning to write for more? (They’re so interesting! But maybe you have trouble pinning them down, or keep getting distracted by another blorbo…)
for supergirl i think it's a tie between alex, nia, and andrea. they have such interesting dynamics with kara and lena that im like ooh let me get in on this and then i just end up not doing it because idk if i've got their voice or how i want them in my mind down enough to write them into fics. i've mentioned them in various capacities but i'd like to be able to write them more comfortably. i think i'd love to be able to write alex and kara's bond and sisterhood better and outside of supercorp but alas
for rwby i'd really like to try my hand at ruby tbh she was the only one i didn't really write in the bbb because i couldn't get the hang of her in a way i liked so i kinda skipped her lol sorry ruby i'd love to try my hand with her but right now the rwby brain rot that's eating at me is this rosebird divorce AU i keep daydreaming about on the train so maybe ruby'll have to wait longer...

Raven mayhaps for the ask game?
love that this is an ask game now bdhhshdhsdh but YES i absolutely can give you some bird milf hc’s
i’ve mentioned before in an old rosebird post that she drinks black coffee and i stand by that
idk if this has been stated in canon before but if not then she’s the older one of the twins
had a goth phase in beacon and only KINDA grew out of it
sucked her thumb as a baby
a lot of her reputation of being cruel and ruthless is just gossip that she let spread. she hasn’t killed nearly as many people as she is rumored to have
awful at math
probably would type with autocaps on and perfect grammar and spelling. misuses emojis and can’t take a picture for shit
has a rose tattoo on her lower back and pretends she got it before she met summer (qrow can confirm this is a lie)

i am incapable of not thinking about team strq right now. i need to see the fallout of ruby telling yang, tai, and qrow that RAVEN was the last person to see summer alive. like if tai and qrow knew that raven knew what summer was up to, they surely would have gotten it out of her right??? or at the very least i feel like qrow would have mentioned that at some point if he knew. maybe they were trying to protect yang?? but raven and qrow have had some form of contact with each other since raven dipped and i can't imagine qrow would have been chill with her just not telling him anything, he clearly cares deeply for summer and tai. idk i have SO many questions like where did rosebird go, what was summer's plan and how much did raven know, why did summer and raven have SUCH divorced energy, and most importantly WHAT HAPPENED TO SUMMER ROSE my questions are endless

And time for Day 7 of @rosebird-week ‘s Rosebird week, Promises/Betrayals
As always, ao3 link here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/41936106
Also school killin me rn so day 8 is probs gonna be a few days late😖
“Raven, stop scratching at it, the collar’s fine.”
“But it’s not. It feels crooked, and if it looks crooked when she comes, then-”
“Raven,” Raven stopped pulling at her black collar at Qrow’s flat tone, as he gave her a thoroughly exhausted stare. “You look fine. Seriously. And I’m pretty sure Summer’s gonna drop dead seein’ you in a suit, no matter how the collar is.”
Raven mused his words over, taking her hand from the collar to scratch her neck, looking back to where guests were beginning to filter in, no doubt guided by Oscar and the Schnee boy, or one of the other ushers. Raven chuckled thinking of them. “Honestly, I don’t think this would be going so well without all the kids’ help.”
“Hmph, you tell me. Speaking of,” Qrow leaned past Raven. “Hey, Yang! Is the sword okay?” Yang looked over from where she’d been talking with blake, rolling her eyes and placing a hand on her waist.
“Yeah, yeah, it’s okay. Don’t worry yourself to death,” at his lack of amusement, she held up an intricately decorated, curved scabbard. “See?” Qrow just sighed. Raven chuckled at the two’s antics, nudging him in the side. “Hey, I wouldn't’ve chosen her if I didn’t trust her. And we’ve got Clover keepin’ an eye on them, anyway.”
“Somehow, he doesn’t reassure me.”
“Really? After so long with each other, I’d thought you’d trust him with anythin’.” She laughed at his unamused expression. “Hey, be careful. You’re gonna be in my spot with him eventually, worry wart.”
“Yeah, yeah, whatever.”
The two meandered for a while longer, keeping an eye out as more guests filtered in and sat down. Tai soon enough came rushing in, Qrow mocking the celebrant for being late, earning him a hit on the heads with the book of vows. As he nursed the ache given, Tai and Raven took to small talk, though Tai made sure to take the chance to embarrass Yang with mentions of ‘Taking notes for her’s and Blake’s turn’. As the ushers still outside came in, however, the group knew it was time, and took their places. Yang and Qrow stood off to the right. Raven took her place in the centre, Tai just behind with the vows ready. The groom's people took their seats at the front.
And then, the music began. And the assembled crowd grew into a hushed silence.
And she walked in.
Summer was in a rather simple wedding dress, as she’d preferred, coloured in white and lined with red. Maria led her, taking the parent role after mentoring the woman for years, though not anymore. Ruby was closed behind, grinning happily whilst covering a shield decorated with a rose, with other bridesmaids in toe, Weiss looking slightly exhausted from all the organising. Clancy followed with Robyn keeping an eye on her, as the silver and red-eyed girl scattered petals behind them. The music began to soften as the party came to the front, the various bridesmaids filling in their seats, as Ruby stayed alongside her mother. Maria gave Raven a warm smile, of empathy or reassurance or both, she couldn't tell, then nodded, letting go of Summer’s arm, and standing to the side. As they did, the music finally fell silent. Tai broke it, clearing his throat.
“Family. Friends. Today we are gathered here to celebrate the union of two people, close to us all. A union of mind and spirit, so that the two may walk together not just as two bodies, but as one soul.” He held out a hand to one, then the other. “Raven Branwen, and Summer Rose.”
“As most of you will know, I’ve known both Raven and Summer for a long time. Which is odd, given how blindsided I was by being chosen to do this by them. Granted, I’m the only person they know with a law degree, but I’d have thought they knew me better than to trust me with this, given the number of juicy things I have on these two.” That earned him a laugh from the crowd, as Summer giggled whilst Raven just rolled her eyes.
“But, that’s for later. For now, I hope to honour them both and join them in a union I know from my beacon days they’ve both longed for. Of course, if there are no objections.” No one stood, and he chuckled. “Good. I’d rather not have to witness Qrow’s scythe skills on today of all days. Now then,” he gave a nod to Yang, who stopped forward, handing the sword to Raven, who presented it to Summer, hilt first. “On this day, I give you the sword of my family, so that we may one day grant it to our own.” Though it felt formal, Raven couldn't help but notice the irony, considering either Clancy or Ruby would be the ones to inherit it. Something told her it would continue to collect dust.
Summer took the sword carefully, swapping it with ruby for the shield. “Thank you. And I, too, present you with this shield, so that our union will be kept safe from all woes.” Raven took it, nodding as a smile crept up her face, barely noticing Yang take the shield.
“Now then, it is time. Raven?” At his prompting, Raven took from a necklace around her neck a small ring, decorated with red and black gems. “Summer. We’ve... had ups and down. Many of them. When we met, and for a long time afterwards, I would try to push you away, shut myself off. Yet you kept coming back, and, eventually, you helped me break my walls, see myself for who I was and who I wanted to be. Even when I closed myself back in again, time and time again, you still never gave up hope. Never gave up that I would keep those walls up. And it’s that hope that helped me do so.”
Her voice began to grow shaky, and she stopped for a moment to catch her breath, wiping a tear away even as Summer felt her own growing. “And I promise you, for as long as my soul stays on this land we call home, I will keep them down. And I will build something new, with you to enjoy it alongside me.” Summer nodded shakily, smiling warmly through the prickling tears.
“Thank you. Summer?”
Slow, calm breath filled the room, as Summer, too, readied herself. She took her own ring from her necklace, decorated with red and white. “I, I feel I’m somewhat the same. From our first interaction, we didn’t get along, butting heads throughout beacon. But, as I got to know you, I saw small things. But they showed something grand. Wonderful. The real Raven, not the Branwen she presented herself as. And I fell in love with her. How could I not?
And I kept falling in love with her. Through the trials and tribulations, through the best and worst, I stayed for her. And I’m so glad I did, so I could see her stand in front of me today.”
Tai nodded, smiling at them both. “Now then, with the exchange of vows and rings, the two may become one, in heart, mind and coil. Summer, do you take Raven to be your partner, through highs and lows, through joy and loss?” She smiled, looking into those crimson eyes, barely holding back tears. She nodded. “I do.” She slipped the ring onto Raven’s hand, holding to close.
“And do you, too, Raven, take Summer to be your partner, through all of life’s tribulations, from highs to lows, and from joy to hardship?” And so too did crimson look into Silver, smiling through small tears of joy. She nodded, sliding the ring onto her beloved's hand, feeling the warmth as the two rings touched. “I do.”
“And so, I am glad to pronounce the two of you joined in marriage - wife to wife!”
The ensemble guests erupted into a chorus of cheers, as Summer immediately pulled Raven into a kiss, making Yang chuckle until Qrow hinted that she should be taking notes for her time, which earned him an elbow to the gut.
The pair, hand in hand, soon made their way down the aisle, grinning, and only seeing one another, as cheers and claps echoed around them. They stepped through the doorway to the outside, eye to eye and hand in hand.
With a promise in their hearts, and a world to face. Together in heart, mind and soul, as so many times before.
