2. And Cinder and Neo are two weeks behind the protagonists, meaning they'd be sitting in Argus for Two Weeks,

3. Nothing however says that is specifically for a deeper reason. It can easily be for a visual metaphor, considering Adam is a Bull Faunus and typically Bulls and Cows are branded, or could easily be foreshadowing for when they get to Atlas and Blake and Yang find more Faunus with a similar branding.

4. Besides, they originally planned for Normal Scars, as the CRWBY documentary showed he had normal scars on his face in the planning stages, but after that got leaked, it was changed. If anything, they probably changed it since it fit thematically and so that the leak wouldn't really hold water. 1. It looked, to me, like the ship was going down, giving me the impression that, at the very least, it's gonna need to be repaired, and we don't know how long that will take them.

2. That's why I said that it could potentially give them more time to catch up. They wouldn't necessarily get there while RNJRWBY is still in Argus, but they could reduce the time gap by some degree.

3. My impression was that, if you're going to give the character a specific mark relating to a prominant party in the story, there's going to be something deeper there in the writing, either for the character's backstory or for future reference. Personally, I'd kinda like it to be for both.

4. I haven't seen the leak, as I've been purposely avoiding anything that might give me spoilers to new episodes before they're even out for FIRST members. I had heard that there had been something shown in a CRWBY episode that really shouldn't have been shown, so I stayed away from it. I didn't know that the scarring in the CRWBY episode was different from the scarring in the show proper.
