Ruby and Yang is a rare pairing in fanfiction, mostly because it's, well, incest. Fanart is different, but most of the fanart of this pairing is 18+ and existed before the series was released, back when the theory was that Yang used "sis" as a friendship term, not a family bond.

Weiss and Yang are opposites, even more drastically than Blake and Yang. Yang is Fire, Weiss is Ice. They don't mesh very well personality wise, unlike Weiss and Ruby. Even so, I'm one of those "one-sided Pink" shippers, and I'd much prefer a heterosexual relationship for them, but if one of the four is going to be a lesbian... I'd probably stick my money on Weiss.

Blake and Yang's pairing, and the flaws in it, were summed up perfectly in my eyes by XDex and procrastinating dragon, I have no reason to repeat what they've said here.

Yang isn't really suited for a relationship with any of the currently fleshed-out characters. For whatever reason it is, incest is relatively popular in fanfiction. Why? I don't know. But Farroncest is rather popular over in at least one medium, so incest is alive and well.

Although personally, a RubyxYang pairing is...odd. A good odd. Not a bad odd.
