My favorite thing about RG is how naturally they fit together. Like, they feel like they belong together without them being literally made for each other. They each have their own rich stories going on, but they especially enrich one another with their parallels, themes, and the ways that they are able to reach one another in ways that few other characters do.
I’m late to answering and posting these but sooooo true. One thing RWBY ships do really well imo is how they compliment each other. From the designs and colours, to allusions and parallels, to the themes and character arcs. RG especially has got it all. I’ll never be over any of them, but especially how they support each other in ways they just can’t seem to get from other characters. Oscar being the first person to actually help her carry her grief, while Ruby has consistently been the one to see Oscar as his own person. Those are the roots of both their arcs and they’re all tangled up in each other!! What in the soulmates nonsense is that!!
