Meh, I'm not that surprised. RT has been dropping hints to that for... well, pretty much since she was introduced really, IMOO (In my own opinion). First, her name: which means 'rainbow', the banner LGBT people have used for quite a while. Second, Corsac (or Fennec, I can't remember which) said that Ilia "Would be elated" if Blake were to return to the WF. (although, this is much less substantial, and could have been meant in a platonic way. About Ilia's emotions that is, not the Albain's statement itself) Third, she avoided attacking Blake at all during the rooftop battle. (She hesitated, then cut through the pipes, instead) Fourth, when Ilia warns Blake to leave Menagerie in 'No Safe Haven', she doesn't even mention Sun, or her parents. (Although again, insubstantial) Fifth, In 'Necessary Sacrifice', Ilia seems to show more concern and hesitation about sending Blake to Adam, than about killing Ghira and Kali. Sixth, the whole sort-of Heart-to-heart (I guess) with Blake, where she poured out her emotions about why she joined the White Fang. (Tying directly into that): Seventh, The whole 'hiding who I really am, never showing emotion' thing she was doing while in Atlas. While she was 'doing what she had to do to avoid discrimination' we don't know for certain that her Faunus trait was all she didn't want known. It's possible, given that (as far as I'm aware) it hasn't been mentioned, the population of Remnant may be mostly or almost completely againt homosexuality. Hence, the above can be interpreted as 'Hiding that I'm (Ilia, not me personally) bi-sexual, (or lesbian?) and not showing any form of romantic emotion toward another female.

So, RoosterTeeth may have been cleverly hinting at this for a while, or, it could just be coincedinces, a LOT of coincedinces. Personally, I think it's the former, but that's just my, possibly incorrect, opinion.

Anyway, *Goes back and looks through it all* Holy Crap! Sorry, but this is the longest comment I think I've ever writen!

Anyway, (Again)
