As well as one or two 'school lesson' epsiodes to let us know what Beacon Academy is like for its students and some character background establishing episodes, I think I would like to see a 'vacation break' episode. Call it... "House Party".

Specifically, I'd like Ruby to invite the rest of Team RWBY and Team JAUN to visit her and Yang at their home during an inter-semester break. It's actually quite surprising how easy-going Mr and Mrs Xiao Long are with an octet of heavily-armed teenagers under their roof. Cue hillarity when they assume that Jaune and Nero are their daughters' boyfriends (a mistaken impression that the other girls are only too eager to foster). That bit of comedy aside, I think it would be a nice bit of bonding between the RWBY girls with Blake learning what a 'normal' family is like and Weiss finding out that only having a minute fraction of her disposible income does not make for a miserable life.

I'd actually love to see Mrs Xiao Long corral the girls to help do the day's housekeeping chores (something with which some of them may have little or no experience) whilst Mr Xiao Long gives an incomprehending Jaune and Nero the 'shovel speech' about treating his little girls right.

NERO: (whispers) Jaune, why does he think...?

JAUNE: (whispers) Nero, just keep smiling and nodding; if you value your life, keep smiling and nodding!

It would be a sort of 'slice of life' moment - seeing the real people behind the heroes and their everyday lives away from saving the world. It might also give the animation team a reason to create a 'civvies' model for each of the main characters.

Maybe there could also be a 'Birthday Bash' episode where, to mark Ruby's sixteenth birthday, Yang takes the girls to a nightclub. Junior's nightclub specifically, because she's determined to get that Strawberry Sunrise and because it's the one nightclub where she knows for certain the local night-life will give her and hers a wide berth. Naturally, Crimson is there with a few mooks (as well as the Malachite Twins) and there is a rumble on the dance floor. 1) It's team JNPR, not JAUN.  2) Who's Nero? The only member of JNPR with a name close to that is Nora, and she's a girl.
