If you read the blog for the original outline for Homecoming, it mentions that Jake surrendered his powers as a Dragon dating a slayer is forbidden.
Now while Rose's Huntsclan life is memories of another lifetime, in HKL Jake brings up her birthmark which means she's a natural born Dragon Slayer.
But then she did help them with the Dark Dragon. And occasionally they've bent rules before, given a good enough reason.

Well, since Rose was undeniably their ally in HKL, I don't think the Council would have a problem with Jake dating her.

I suppose it would be like Jake training with Lao Shi, again with bending regulations. I do wonder if Eddie considered the idea with the other season 3 plans.

Jake seemed really content when he returned home and no one was flying down to seperate the two but apparently Jake didn't return home with her (maybe just outside her apartment) and she still has his jacket.I'm pretty sure that they will see one another again without much opposition except for maybe Rose's folks.

Really, what I'm more interested in is will the Council let it slide that Jake's Dad now knows that his whole family, with the exception of his wife, are dragons....

I imagine Susan's hesitation to tell Jonathan was a personal one rather than it being part of bylaws or whatever. They certainly don't seem to mind that Trixie and Spud know for one. I guess it's like this, you're able to stand up to an ultimate evil you get to bend some regulations provided it's reasonable.

As far as pre-Homecoming is concerned, it's probably obvious that the Dragon Council would forbid them to associate personally (because of her being in the Huntsclan, she can't be fully trusted, etc).
After Homecoming and Hong Kong Longs... It's hard to say. It'd be easy to say they wouldn't have problems since Rose no longer has the influence of the Huntsclan within her (since she was never a part of it), but she's still a slayer. With that kind of power, it's easy to suspect someone would abuse it, and that's plenty enough reason to fuel suspicion for the Dragon Council.

Well, yeah. Even though it's likely Rose would never do it, she has the mark of a slayer and could start the Huntsclan all over again if she wanted to (or someone else).

I agree especially considering he is family.
As for Jake/Rose i think he council would allow it but with a very close eye on Rose.

They might not even know Rose was a member of the Huntsclan, due to the fact that all of their events were erased except for the 'memories'. Other than that, it's unknown.

But they at least know she's a slayer. For all we know there could be many slayers who didn't care for the job security or benefits of The Huntsclan. While unknown, I figured it would make for good discussion. True, but the same could be said with Dragons just the same. If they were to base their thoughts on her actions (previous life or not) would they consider her positive traits to outweight the controversal ones?

Love is an interesting emotion. Jake and Rose's relationship was an accident.
At the beginning of the first season, the Dragon Council would not care because there is nothing known about Rose beyond just being a regular girl at school. Although after Ski Trip, the situation would change. The Dragon Council may have Jake keep the relationship in order to spy on the Huntsclan after ensuring that Rose does not know Jake is a dragon. Otherwise, they would persuade Jake to break up and eliminate one future dragon slayer.
After The Hunted, the Dragon Council would frown upon the relationship but not dare forbid it. They would share less information with Jake to prevent Rose from using Jake. But overall, they do not want to have two dark dragons. The Dragon Council may be able to suspend the powers of a dragon, but that would not stop the Huntsclan from undoing it and making a powerful, yet temporary, ally.

If they were to forbid it (pre-Homecoming at least), they would be showing themselves to be a primitive and archaic organization too steeped in it's own doctrine to recognize the damage it's done or doing. Much like the Huntsclan it opposes. These two organizations have been enemies for centuries. If the council refused to embrace, or at least investigate, what may be the first glimmer of peace between the two then it is just another Huntsclan and is worthy of no more deference from Jake OR Rose than them.
