You were CLEARLY hinting to Bumblebee happening with that patch on her pants and then you went with a straight relationship instead, therefore you queerbaited, you horrible people!!"

I wasn't even thinking of that, I was thinking more of her bike, Bumblebee. I'm certain she doesn't have romantic feelings for Blake, since Monty strove to make RWBY as ecchi-free as possible, going against the grain (which I always enjoy). So I see the patch as a reminder of her more joyful past, something she doesn't want to forget. I hope she keeps the jacket too, a memento of her father's no doubt, the show needs such fond memories to somewhat offset thedark times on the horizon.
