My thoughts, transcribed as I was watching.

Yes I wil watch Gen:lock. Actually skipped the intro today.

WTH are they wearing!? I nearly burst into laughter when I saw those idiots. They have already lost all credibility with me because of those outfits. Their doofy mannerisms don't help at all. These clowns are going to slow the episode way down on thier own with how many times I need to center myself. And with the "march" they are a lost cause. Not even a gatling laser could make me take these schmucks seriously. I just hope they don't get grating.

Can't say I've been there (yet) Granny, but airport security might as well be an invention of hell. WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE'S BONES!? I refuse to take this trope lying down.

Ya sure it's just one stick Granny? What did you do Nora? Just add a new gate at the mainland end of the bridge, and don't see anyone who hasn't gotten an appointment or at least spoken with the casttle. Lockdown, it's a simple concept.

DAMN BUFFER!

Going to let the video run silent until it catches back up. And now it won't even finish the gen:lock promo.

I'm back, and it seems to be running reasonably well.

So she's not just an uptight beuracrat who sweats every detail, she's an arrogant propoganda spouter. oh joy. I agree with granny, though there had to be more remote and isolated bases. And I already want her to shut her trap and get a comeuppance with minimal collateral damage.

So why didn't she just go on lockdown? It's not a wholey unreasonable move, and I could see her getting behind that with no concern of how it looks.

Preaching to the choir Yang.

Racist too? Well I'm hoping she gets discharged, assuming nothing happens to her.

Can we please go see a smuggler now? I knew this was a flawed idea a long time ago.

That was your only plan Qrow? This was an issue you needed to solve before you found out Oz was fighting in the face of seemingly inevitable defeat. You're right Blake, it wasn't for nothing.

Ah, how to win. THe question we've been working on for weeks.

He didn't have a choice Jaune. Stop getting hysterical. You don't need to give your haters any more ammo.

Is JNPR going to stay behind? That's going to hamper their chances.

Atta girl Ruby, you're thinking like a leader now. Being a leader is a heavy burden.

YES! Please discuss. Now you're interested. Could have at least tried to ask Oz when there wasn't so much distrust, and there was an abundance of time.

So they're calling it a wyvern now. Admittedly a giant wyvern, but we didn't need to reopen that debate. It does raise the question of whether there are documented smaller instances.

New info:

Granny was home-schooled in combat and being an SEW by her dad. Granny scored higher than anyone else on the day she applied for her liscence, which you at least could get if you proved your skills, even if you didn't attend an academy. Great gramps was wise enough to recognize the implications of the obscurity and rarity, and the need for secrecy.

Granny has heightened senses and awareness and possibly minor precognition. Silver Eyes can blind Grimm. Granny says that weapons and Semblances are more useful. RED LIKE ROSES. So the SEWs may indeed have power passed from the GoL. Can't properly practice in safety. This Will Be the Day.

I need to go back and listen to them again.

Glad to see more character development from Ruby.
