Here's my theory, and all the supporting evidence. What if Neo's semblance isn't Illusion, but perception manipulation? Maybe her show of the shattering mirror in "Painting the Town..." was not only an altered perception to Team RWBY, but to us as well. Maybe Yang never really got close to her in "No Brakes," and we were being altered there too. Maybe she was the one screwing with Coco in "Lessons Learned,"  as well as with us and Yang once again during "Fall," changing our perception of time, Yang's footsteps, her perception of distance, and our perception of Mercury. Maybe the cameras can't be manipulated, and that's why she left her hair and eyes unaltered during her match before "New Challengers," because she knew it wouldn't work anyway. That's right, I also think that triple scoop and heterochromia are not her natural colors at all. Now, discuss.
