I think White Night has some possibility.

Lancaster, meanwhile, no.

Remember that scene in Kuroyuri where Jaune gave Ruby words of encouragement and then put his hand on her shoulder? According to Miles Luna, the two were originally gonna hug, but Miles and Kerry worried that people would take it the wrong way and think that there's budding romance between the two, when it's just friendship. So they changed it to him putting his hand on Ruby's shoulder.

The fact that Miles and Kerry want to deter any thought of Jaune and Ruby having romantic feelings for each other says it all. Lancaster isn't a thing.

I'll be honest, though, I'm biased here. I only see them as friends, and I actually personally really, really hope that they stay just friends. My best friend in school was a guy, so since everyone saw us hanging out a lot, even though we also had other people hang out with us, they just assumed we were a couple. It was annoying to the point where it was actually a relief when a teacher assumed we were siblings. It also made it hard for my friend to try to make a move on the girl he liked.

Even setting that aside, I'm tired of shows and movies having a male and female character who were close friends or got along really well inevitably end up dating or getting married. Honestly, a guy and a girl can be good friends without it ultimately ending in them being a couple. It's to the point where it's boring to see that for the 900 millionth time.
