To me, Bumblebee (in my opinion hate the ship) will most likely become canon.

If he does, then he should make Lancaster canon too. I mean, sure its cliche but it should be easy for him. .*Ahehehem* Except it looks like they're making Black Sun canon, so no Bumblebee.

Eh, I don't ship Arse. I like the idea of Jaune and Ruby forever being just friends. A guy and a girl can be close friends without falling in love (and without needing one of them to not be into the other's sex). I'd rather those two remain friends and never have any romantic interest in each other.

The post said:

"So we’ve actually already had some LGBT+ characters in the show, but didn’t really go out of our way to draw a ton of attention to it. We don’t want it to be “a thing”. As we explore more about all of our characters, it’ll definitely come up. We just want it to feel natural, if that makes sense.

Also, speaking personally, I know I want to get better when it comes to writing romance. I’m just not great at it yet, haha.

He never said that the characters were introduced in volume 3. Just that they've been in the show for a while but no attention has been drawn to their LGBT+ stuff.

Personally, I think Scarlet is one of the LGBT+ characters and that male fan holding up a Scarlet sign was a hint to Scarlet's sexuality. Who the others are, I'm not sure. I'd laugh at the Snow Bird shippers' reactions if Qrow is gay. And actually, it'd be kind of interesting. I could see Qrow being gay.
