That is an idea, although, I would prefer to see Velvet gaining her team's friendship by herself. Sure, she's the timid and quite type of girl but doesn't mean she needs someone else to defend her. After all, if we're talking about development, Velvet needs to stand up for herself the same way Jaune did. Jaune is not shy like Velvet but she's a badass fighter unlike him.

What concerns me is the many things they have shown us about Velvet's team:


 * Monty said that they are actually pretty cool guys


 * They have lots of experience in teamwork.


 * The picture where Velvet stands with her team with a smile on her face which is also the first time we've actually seen her smile.

There are two reasons why it's easy to discard her team as racists: They weren't there when she was being bullied and almost anyone who isn't a main character is a racist.

However, that's idealistic and kind of a negative thought. I guess we'll just have to find out eventually, Volume 2 is less than a month ahead of us!
