Personally, it's my OTP.

​

The two of them have had a close friendship from the beginning, so a relationship could work. Jaune was the first character to show any kindness to Ruby at beacon. Blake and Weiss blew her off. He was the first person she bonded with at beacon. Ruby, along with Pyrrha (hint much?), noticedsomething was bothering Jaune when he was being bullied by Cardin. No one else did. I find it interesting that Pyrrha noticed, and she had a crush on Jaune, and Ruby noticed two. They were the only ones who noticed. During team jNPR's match at the Vytal festival, Ruby is cheering for Jaune a only. Not the rest of team JNPR, but Jaune only.

​

Despuite the fact that Jaune had lost Pyrrha, and was still grieving, he joined Ruby in her mission to Mistral, and on the journey, the two have grown even closer.

​

I find it cute that RT did the whole scene with Ruby spying on Jaune while he was training at night in Volume 4. Everyone who watches anime knows what this means :). They were actually supposed to hug in volume 4, but according to Kerry, it got deleted due to time restraints, and that they didn't want to undermine the Renora pairing they built up in that episode. he then went on to say that he wasn't going to confirm to deny that the two had any interest in each other (Volume 4 director's commentary."

​

I also find it cute that in volume 5, Ruby was constantly distracted by Jaune's fight with Cinder in her fight with emerald. She wasn't distracted by the other characters like Weiss, who was getting wrecked by Vernal. And even cuter, and kinda emotional, the thought of Jaune dying like Pyrrha terrified her to the point of unlocking her Silver Eyed power/
