Personally, though, to me, it doesn't feel like they're having issues showing how things have gone the past 6-8 months. It's entirely possible that Blake had only just recently boarded that ship, and up until then, Sun was following her on land and keeping a good enough distance that she didn't notice him. And she didn't expect him to know about her going home to her family! She expected him to understand that she's not trying to go on "a one-woman rampage against the White Fang". She's trying to avoid the White Fang right now. That's what she was annoyed about him not understanding! She didn't expect him to psychically know that she's going to her family! I still agree with the OP though... Blake being unaware of Sun and vice versa for 6-8 months seems like a long time... personally I headcannon that Sun meeting Blake is at least slightly earlier than RJNR's timeline, and that this meeting specifically is long before it, so they can time-skip portions of the sea journey towards Blake arriving in Menagerie, then later she gets another after being forced to leave, arriving either in Mistral or meeting another RWBY member back in RNJR's timeline later.
