But the point of drawing connections is because the fans want to get inside Monty's head. So far, the characters are all given to have certain motifs. Bird motif, fairytale motif, cross-dressing motif, and with characters named Sun, Neptune, and Mercury, it was natural to draw the conclusion of a planet motif (hell if Sun were named Helios/Solaris or Apollo instead, everyone would have instantly gone with the gods motif). Ozpin, Glynda, Qrow, and the new Ironwood sound very Oz-ish and they may have once been a team with that as their motif. People were able to pretty quickly figure out JNPR's motif and CRDL's motif was pretty by far the most obvious (unless the whole bird thing is just Red Herring... ... eh?) Nevertheless, speculating on how Scarlet fits the criteria for team Sun helps to establish acceptance in the absence of the more beneficial Tweet from Monty. People were able to accept that his name may be Mars or Antares when they believed planets was a viable motif.

The truth is though, when all is said and done. The show has only just started up again and there really isn't that much to talk about except for these trivial if annoying issues. GOD MONTY! Why won't you just confirm or deny it? Scarlet? Team Sun? Male? You were so forthright a couple of weeks ago and then when people start asking about the last guy, nothing. This character must be the most important character in the whole of Volume 2 for you to be so quiet all of the sudden. Either that or you've suffered a stroke or have amnesia.

Yes... I'm talking to someone who isn't here. I am going insane. Welcome to my tea party. Would you like a biscuit?
