As much as I'm against de-humanisation of the Faunus for the sake of comedy (giving them habitual weakness or making Blake have an uncontrollable purr for example whenever she's aroused [get your heads out of the gutters!])  I do kind of want (and put into my fanfic) a scene where Ruby is stroking Blake's ears and then there face just drops and Blake turns to face her:

Blake: "What is it?"

Ruby: "I thought you'd purr..."

Blake's eyes narrow as she processes Ruby's assumption.

Blake: "I CAN purr."

Then Ruby's face drop as she realises that cats she had encountered may not have actually purred because they enjoyed her petting of them and actually because they just wanted food.

Ruby: "So cats choose to purr?"

Blake just looks at her incredulously.

Blake: "Do I look like a cat?"

Ruby: "Um, no?"

Blake: "Then how I would I know."

Then here's just an awkward silence with Blake being slightly annoyed at Ruby for asking her such things unitl Ruby finally speaks up.

Ruby: "COULD you purr?"

Blake gives her an evil "if looks could kill" stare in response. Ruby gives Blake her (supposedly classic if you believe every RWBY fanfiction that's ever been written) puppy dog look.

Ruby: "Please Blake. For me?"

Blake rolls her eyes but surrenders to Ruby's adorableness, her chest rumbling as Ruby strokes her cat ears.

Ruby: "Good kitty..."

Blake: "Thin ice Ruby... Thin ice..."

Ruby giggles in response, Blake smiling over Ruby's happiness.
