Eh, no harm in speculation. Over half of it will be wrong & probably disappoint those of us who couldn't just enjoy the show like regular viewers, but I'm willing to accept that risk considering I like it when I can either guess the twists or get blown away by something I never thought of, just like tonight's origin story.

Also, didn't Monty also say Ruby's name DEFINITELY wasn't Rose, & that she & Yang were FULL-ON sisters? I'll even bet he said there wasn't anything under Blake's bow before - surprise, surprise - CAT EARS. Directors sometimes lie to preserve their plots, like Star Trek Into Darkness & The Dark Knight Rises. Plus, if she really was a Xiao Long mother before changing into the Fall of Remnant, that wouldn't be a total lie. The age thing's definitely a big hole, but it IS a college, so all ages could be welcome & we just overestimate her youth due to her surroundings? Either that, or the Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood reference in the first episode is a big hint to what our main villain/mystery parent could really be...

Again, most to all of this is just me spewing crap, but no one has to listen, & I won't have to be affected by the actual developments in the show when they're against my theories.
