Except the Beast was never cursed by a rose, he was cursed by his fairy godmother because he refused to marry her. The rose only ever existed because it catalysed the entire story. Beauty's foster father plucks the rose from the Beast's garden, the Beast gets pissed and swears to kill him and his family so Beauty sacrifices her future and her freedom by staying in his castle forever. This story wasn't "sunshine and rainbows" at the beginning, it was a freaking horror story and people should stop undermining that. Not talking about RWBY theories but the whole romance in general.

Also Blake was called a Beast because it was foreshadowing her Faunus heritage and Yang was called a Beauty because she's a literal ray of sunshine and happiness for the people around her. Whether it has any link to the story has yet to be confirmed.
