User blog comment:Angren Túrë/Ruby Backstory episode; "Cloaked in Roses, Part 2: Summer Rose"/@comment-5217560-20130731183936

So I know I've said it many times before, but I am one who doesn't like out there speculations. Heck, too much speculation bothers me quite a bit. But I must say that I really liked this one. This feels as if they could do an episode on this(with changes of course) or even start a whole Arc on this. I like this much better than the "Weiss's parents trying to kill her"!

It did seem like a fanfic, which you did state it Twas' not your intention! Honestly, while reading this I did not want to rip my hair out(the desire is strong when looking at other speculations on this site) cause it seems extremely likely. It was well-written to boot!

The only real criticism I can give is the reference to the Red trailer. Seeing as how it doesn't have any real correlation to the show, only being a weapon showcase but it blended well within the story so more power to you.

Honestly, I didn't think it was that Dark XD. But then again, I've seen and read some real effed up stuff. Also, playing on Ruby's fear of being helpless? Genuis. As Oum states she relies entirely on Crescent Rose, and without it she'd be vunerable. Although she doesn't have a fear of death as of yet due to her lack of comprehension towards it, feeling helpless is a pretty big fear for her I imagine.
