Monochrome

Monochrome (also known as Checkmate or Checkmating) is the femslash/yuri/wlw ship between Weiss Schnee and Blake Belladonna from the American anime-style web series RWBY.

Weiss Schnee and Blake Belladonna are teammates and make up the W and B of Team RWBY, respectively. Weiss was the heir to the Schnee Dust Company and initially had distrust of the White Fang and of the Faunus (one of two races in the world of RWBY that is distinguishable in that they possess the traits of animals). Due to this, she initially runs into conflict with Blake, who grew up in the White Fang and is a Faunus. Over time, they learn to trust each other and now consider each other like family.
Person A: "Monochrome is such a cute ship, I hope it becomes canon soon!"
Person B: "Me too! I hope they support each other when they both go to Atlas, Weiss's home and the place with the most Faunus discrimination."
