Wow.

That was a very, very long read. This is the reason why I really like such communified (yes, I made that word up!) wikis; it's never a dull moment around here! Well, perhaps other than that torturous last day before the next episode, but even that is covered by rampant last minute speculation and hype.

There were a lot, a lot of great ideas in the mix, so much that I can't list them all out (seriously guys! Wow! Some of the stuff you guys come up with...) but some of my favorites (just off the top of my head; seriously, if I went on, I probably could write an entire essay) include BenRG's idea for an interview at Beacon Academy, which I think is especially great as, so far, we've been seing the RWBY setting as through the Hunter's eyes; not only would this be a great comedic episode, showcase all of the main character's personalities greatly, but it would also bring an "outsider" out-of-context look at the whole situation that I think would really help inject a sense of a "larger world" feel that I personally think has been lacking to the series (although, again, it is only at its fourth episode, so I am being a bit unfair in this regard).

Another great idea that stuck with me was TheNewProtagonist's "Yang without Gauntlets" idea (though it could work equally well with any character if tweaked), I thought that was quite touching. Another great idea, I felt, was A Wikia Contributor's of testing the sibling bond between Ruby and Yang, because face it: though they so adorable together, but no matter how close a bond is, there are always times when people chafe on each other's nerves, and I feel it would really help soldify them as genuine, three dimensional character's if done right.

Also, thank to Angren Ture, too; you have quite a talent for writing, and reading through your various theories were quite fun (seriously: as much as you protest at writing fanfiction, I find you would be quite good at it; I truly enjoyed reading through your "Cloaked in Roses" Parts 1 and 2). Though, of course, I disagree with some parts of your character intepretations, your skill with words and the ideas you come up with really made this thread come to life. I'd really like to hear you put down more of your theories into words!

Anyway, that's enough of me simply squeeing over how much the RWBY wiki has developed in the month+ I've been away. It's so bright now, compared to before!

Oh yeah, and to prevent any accusations of derailing the thread, I'll be posting one episode I'd be looking forwards to seeing in the future, focusing on our favorite butt-monkey, Jaune!

Look forwards to it!
