Ok, so this topic has been talked and talked to death. But I really feel the need to talk about it some more and compile all the evidence/facts in one place so that we can all go wild guessing and arguing about opinions.

So, without further ado 'Reasons why I think Blake Belladonna is a Faunus'

- 'Black the Beast Descends from Shadows'

It is already very clear that Faunus are discriminated against. So, beast could just be a derogatry way of referring to faunus. It could also be comparing faunus to creatures of Grimm, as both are animalistic and Faunus could be seen as a cross between the two.

-From Shadows is Blake's theme, not Adam's

'Worthless animal'

Faunus are, by definition, humans that are part animal

'Stripped of all rights'

Faunus are discriminated against, this could extend to having less rights or having their rights abused because of what they are

'Lesser being'

Faunus could be made to feel inferior, or treated like they are

'Human rule'

Why specify that it's human rule, unless you are comparing it to something else?

-"I like your bow" (Ruby)

Monty doesn't do anything without a purpose. We should all know that by now. What at the time appeared to be a simple compliment to attempt to form friendship may in fact allude to Blake's Boy being something important, or hint at its significance

-Blake wore the bow to bed

Wearing that bow to bed would likely be very uncomfortable and impracticale. Logical reason why Blake would do this: The bow is hiding something

-The bow twitches

Ok, I can understand an animation glitch once. But several times? We can't just write this off

-Blake's knowledge of Faunus history and physiology

Ok, it could just be that Blake payed attention in Oobleck's history class. But she knew exactly what he was talking about with the 'turning point' and the 'advantage', and from the fact that nobody else besides Pyrrha was willing to answer, I don't particularly think it's common knowledge

Ok, this is a very long post filled with a lot of 'ifs' and 'possibly-s'. It's just my honest opinion and take on the events concerning Blake's humanity. I think this is everything, although in my late-night madness I've probably missed something. Anyway, feel free to leave your opinions, I just wanted to compile all of this in one place.
