"Maybe we don't have the full picture."
You know as someone who has spent the last year talking about how Ruby and Yang (and by extension, WE the audience) don't actually know NEARLY enough about their family history as they/we have long assumed thanks to Tai and Qrow being SUPREMELY unreliable narrators...
Yeah, this ABSOLUTELY feels like foreshadowing.

Holy shit the fact half of team RWBY has their primary color change is also part of what makes them different from STRQ.
Red, White, Black, Yellow. It was the core idea behind the show, it was the basis of the main character designs.
And it’s the big visual connector between STRQ and RWBY.
But Weiss isn’t really represented by White — her family is. The more she comes into her own, the more prominent that blue becomes in her outfits, and she’s always had those red accents that made her outfits pop.
Similarly, Blake isn’t really Black — that was all Adam’s influence. Blake’s primary color is purple. And the further Blake and Weiss get from their abusers, the more they heal and grow, the more prominent their own colors become compared to those of others who influenced them.
Team RWBY changes because they overcome their past traumas and get away from the people who influenced them negatively. But their adult counterparts — the RWBY that failed — didn’t. STRQ stayed with their same color schemes into adulthood, while team RWBY has changed and grow.

Its older TaiyangxSummer meme, but it checks out.
Artist is Napoakes.
What does everyone else think of Summer's costume redesign?

I think it’s time I address what is by far the BIGGEST assumption much of the fandom has made about Ruby’s and Yang’s parents:
That Raven was just the shitty parent who abandoned her daughters, and that Summer and Tai were the uncomplicated GOOD parents who made the good choices. And Qrow was the well-meaning fuckup who’s been able to improve.
When the reality is that ALL of Team STRQ were in fact well-meaning but MASSIVE fuckups in each their own way.
Like if nothing else, they all bailed on Ruby and Yang in one way or another (Raven and Summer physically, Tai emotionally/psychologically for several years, Qrow a bit of both)
And I have a good feeling that the Vacuo arc will be when Ruby and Yang will finally have to address that shit.

To me Poly STR was clearly canon, y'all can't tell me that these three didn't ALL explore each other's bodies.
Tai likely explored Qrow's too.

Team STRQ: *on a mission in a spooky abandoned mansion*
Raven: Okay, to get through the next puzzle door I’ll need a human skull and I can’t have anyone asking why.
Summer: Only if you also don’t ask why.
Raven: Uhh…okay…?
Summer: *produces three pristine human skulls*
Raven:
Summer:

Summer:
Raven: …this one will do.
Tai/Qrow: *hugging each other and trembling* 😨
