Fair Game

Fair Game is the slash ship between Clover Ebi and Qrow Branwen from the RWBY fandom.

Canon
Clover is leading the Ace-Ops when they arrest Qrow and Team RWBY upon their arrival in Atlas. Clover later apologies once he has been updated by Ironwood and properly introduces himself and his team. Clover and Qrow pair up to form the alpha team while on a mission at an abandoned Dust mine. Qrow notes that he often works alone to which Clover thinks is a shame. After a run in with the Grimm they are hunting, Qrow tells Clover that his Semblance brings bad luck, however Clover is unfazed as his Semblance brings good fortune. He winks at Qrow as he tells him "Lucky you."

While on an escort mission with Penny and Ruby, Clover and Qrow sit in the back of the transport truck they are guarding and play cards together. Qrow, with a semblance of bad luck, is obviously on a losing streak to Clover and his semblance of good luck. Regardless, they keep playing and Clover notes that Qrow's nieces are lucky to have him as someone to look up to. Qrow tries brush him off but Clover tells him he shouldn't always try and deflect compliments. Qrow smiles and considers it.

Fanon
Fan theorized from Clover's introduction in volume 7 that his Semblance would be good luck and began discussing how it would interact with Qrow's bad luck Semblance. The ship began in earnest after Clover winked at Qrow in episode 3 and was encouragement of some of RWBY's animators.

Trivia

 * Their shipname is based on the concept that their Semblance's of good and bad luck cancel each other out, making things fair.
 * Kim Newman, the lead animator of RWBY Volume 7, confirmed the parallels between the waitress telling Qrow "Lucky you!" then winking at him in Volume 4, and Clover doing the same in Volume 7.
