On the subject of family, how is Jaune feeling about his family? Have any of his sisters contacted him or tried to contact him? Does he think of them at all? That kind of reminds me, someone some time ago, when we learned Jaune's parents KNEW he was going to Beacon without any training, saying something like it wouldn't be surprising if they were trying to get Jaune killed.

And now I have this image in my head that, as RNJR is making their way to Mistral, Jaune is like "My place is kind of on the way we are travelling maybe we could drop by so I can let my parents know I'm still alive." and then when they arrive, Jaune's parents are like "You got catapulted into a forest full of Grimm with your aura locked, the kingdom got rallied by Atlas military, overrun by Grimm, a dragon emerged from within a mountain and started to shit Grimm on the city, and then trashed the Academy... but you are still alive? How? and WHY?" Sounds pretty fucked up really. His father definately wanted him to succeed (seems to be the "be a man" sort of dad, wanting him to find a nice girl and the like), but knowing Beacon was probably over his head. Chances are the Arc residence is still in Vale (who knows what they're doing back home, maybe worrying about Jaune, who disappeared along with his team one day).
