Talk:Ruby Rose/@comment-115.114.27.211-20130826171503

Speculation: The grave that Ruby visits (Summer Rose) is her mother's grave; her father then remarried Yang's mother - thereby making them STEP-SISTERS. This makes sense for a handful of reasons: 1) It would explain why Ruby and Yang have different family names, 2) there's a tip-off that the connection between Yang & Ruby is through Ruby's father ("You sound like Dad"). Uncle Qrow is another world-building implication that refocuses the character cast around Ruby/Yang's parents (i.e. which side is Qrow on).

It would also make sense why Monty has been reluctant to confirm that they are adopted - if it was a step-sister situation, there is a clearly more of a story to tell and there could be emotional baggage that's waiting to be uncovered around Ruby's mother and her father remarrying.

That's my theory. Thoughts?
