Arcotta

Arcotta is the femslash ship between Saphron Cotta-Arc and Terra Cotta-Arc from the RWBY fandom.

Canon
Saphron and Terra are married and have a son, Adrian Cotta-Arc. They live together in Argus. Saphron is also Jaune's older sister and thus lets him and his friends stay with them while passing through Argus. Saphron introduces Terra as her wife as soon she returns home and sees that Team RWBY is staying with them as well.

Saphron and Terra communicate a lot through looks and nods, and generally act as a typical married couple. Saphron appears to be more free spirited, while Terra is the more serious of the two. They are still more than willing to help Jaune and his friends due to their respect of Hunters and Hunteresses. They go so far as to aid in Jaune's plan to steal an Atlas airship so he and the rest of the gang can continue on their journey.

When the giant Grimm appears in the ocean next to Argus, Terra searches the crowded street for Saphron and Adrian. Once she find them, Terra stands holding Saphron as they look on in horror while the Grimm approaches the city. After Ruby uses her silver eyes and the Grimm is defeated they both look shocked, while Adrian cheers.

Fanon
Fans were excited by Saphron's appearance as earlier volumes had mentioned that Jaune had many sisters. Most were also pleased by how easily Terra was introduced as her wife as it marked the first time a married same-sex couple had been shown in RWBY, as well as one with a child.

Trivia

 * Saphron and Terra Cotta likely reference the Greek poet Sappho of Lesbos, so famed for her romantic preference for women that the name of her homeland coined the term "lesbian," and her own name coined the term "sapphic." Many of her works that survived did so on terra cotta pottery shards.
 * The flower's outside the Cotta-Arc house were designed to have the same colour scheme as Saphron and Terra.
