Here's something for us to discuss that we use all the time but probably never gave it a focus to the act in its own:

Off-screen interactions

This idea came to me after I noticed that the Iceberg shippers are claiming that Weiss yelling at Neptune was a regular thing. The reasoning? It's been weeks after Breach, enough time for Weiss and Neptune to start dating thus causing Weiss to eventually find out about his casanova nature. A good point. But some people counter that with other ideas such as the same logic not applying to the Dance incident where Weiss, even after an entire semester, still believed that Jaune was after her out of greed. A semester is enough time for her to be told or realize on her own that he truly liked her but it didn't happen.

This is where the conflict appears. Some firmly believe in Off-screen interactions and use their experience on actual dating to figure out things that didn't happen but are the most likely outcome such as all the people who believes that Weiss simply is not into Jaune and that her comment was only an excuse. Others prefer to just take everything In-screen as Canon and not accept any other ideas apart from that. If it didn't happen then what reason do they have to believe that the writers actually thought of an alternative way to interpret things? Such as Eclipse being canon because Blake blushed on screen rather than believing that Blake grew to be sexually attracted in Yang because of the events of Burning the Candle even though we haven't seen any semblance of such thing.

What do you guys think about this?
