I know someone who says that Ruby may actually have the ability to replicate others' abilities. His evidence being Ozpin brought attention to her silver eyes and the fact that Monty stated that Ruby keeping the tray on her feet during the food fight was foreshadowing.

If we go with this headcanon, then perhaps Qrow's semblance is speed, so much so he has turned to drinking to perceive things at normal speed (it would explain why he's able to fight Winter, an Atlesian soldier, despite being drunk).

I think if anyone in Team RWBY is going to be the summer maiden, it'd be Yang, since fire is a major part of her imagery. Ruby's (the red colour, the scythe, petals being shed) is more associated with Autumn, with the colour changing leaves and the harvest.

Blake has the link to Spring in the sense that light starts to overturn the darkness (which reflects her own past) and is the season of rebirth.

I think Weiss being winter is fairly self explanatory...
