There's more to support the idea that his Semblance keeps him alive ("What I do best... survive!") than that. -Well your views must be pretty narrow then. Think of all the possibilities it could bring. What if Ruby meets Roman and Roman has no idea who she is?

-Yes, but if it's literally a "cheat death" Semblance then it doesn't really make sense. Unless one can, somehow, use their Aura while dead. Or if Aura can activate on it's own after death. -Fan fiction. Sure. There's a lot of possibilites that way. (And you may recall I really enjoy how those two work off each other.) But this has as much likelihood of being canon as someone else's idea this week that Vol 4 will have Ruby in a love triangle with Jaune and an old school crush at Signal.

-I agree, literally cheating death as a Semblance would be a bit... oh, what's the word... Mary Sue-ish. But a sort of Aura-powered extraordinary healing ability, sure. I mean, Torchwick was in that Grimm body for less than a minute before it crashed into the ship. And then another full minute before the ship crashed into Vale. What does a Grimm body do to a human body in that short amount of time?
