I'd consider this an experimental idea on my part, but here goes:

For starters, the basis for most God Eater v RWBY fights is going to revolve around elite teams of teenagers risking their lives and lugging around impossibly cool weapons (that can turn into guns) in a never ending war against an ever adapting species of monsters that have essentially dominated their worlds.

Alisa and Ruby in particular are introduced as the newest members of their teams at the ripe age of 15, having been specifically chosen by the higher ups due to their prodigal status and newly discovered potential. Much of their motivation stems from the deaths of their relatives at an early age, leaving them to become secretly bitter against the monsters responsible.

At first, both of them held a certain level of arrogance in their personalities (moreso with Alisa) and tended to rush into battle headfirst with no consent to their teammates. They got over this behavior and become much more caring over time, though not without inadvertantly causing or bearing witness to the deaths and major injuries of several of their closest friends along the way. The deaths of Lindow Amamiya (supposedly) and Pyrrha Nikos in particular threw them into a despair induced breakdown that left them out of commision for a large span of time.
