I don't know why but I just don't feel particularly invested in Black Sun. Sure it would be a... fine pairing but I think it would just be kind of there. There'd be nothing too outside of the fact that Blake got shipped. Which would be the same thing with Yang or with Weiss (though admittedly Monochrome never really caught on anyways). I'd much prefer White Monkey, Weiss has been conditioned to naturally distrust the faunus, she's only just accepted Blake and likely hasn't actualy forgiven her or accepted her as more than a teammate. It would be interesting to say the least to find out how she would react to finding herself falling for Sun. That being said I don't see their being any development between Weiss and a faunus that couldn't just occur between Weiss and Blake.

I see Pyrrha and Jaune becoming a thing with Ruby at some point perhaps realising her feelings for Jaune only for Yang or Blake to remind her of the fact that her friends are happy with each other and talk her out of doing anything drastic to threaten that relationship. I see Ruby's development likely coming from her connections with her team rather than anyone on the outside. I hope for some Blake/Ruby interaction, it's the least explored of any friendship in Team RWBY and could prove to be just as good as Weiss/Ruby or Blake/Yang (though preferably without the immediate requirement to ship the bastard thing en mass),

Ren/Nora I don't see why it couldn't be a thing. It wouldn't be a significant thing I don't think since neither come across as central characters, but it would be a thing. Team CRDL  is probably best left as stereotypical bullies. As for male teams, there's plenty of room for characters if they want it but I doubt we will see any character being introduced that is major enough to warrant discussion of shipping with the main characters. The cast is already huge for something that puts out less content a year than three episodes of Walking Dead, until someone dies or gets arrested I doubt we will see any more major characters outside of Velvet's team until Monty decides to do the OC contest (if he decides to ever do it).
