Why?



Why is this theory so popular? What purpose does this have? Ruby doesn't have any of Qrow's personality or looks besides the same pale skin that half of the cast has. It's not uncommon to have a child who looks mostly like their parent, I look mostly like my dad. Fighting styles are taught, not inherited and Ruby's style of fighting clearly only shares a resemblances to Qrows like she would to any other Scythe user.



And what about how this would impact the cast? Yang's already in a delicate spot about family without this. Ruby's whole world will be turned upside down if she found out and she has had that done to her enough. Qrow's already bitter enough without this on him. Summer is already tragic enough without this love triangle, soap opera bullcrap. And Taiyang...Seriously,this might kill him.



And how about the way this reflects on Qrow and Summer. Qrow has just cheated on his best friend/brother in law with his second love after losing his first love, his sister whose location he must also keep from him. And Summer just betrayed someone who loves her so much that her death was the tipping point for his depression.



This has no reason to exist except to turn RWBY into a soap opera.
