Just gonna get this out of the way.
Okay, a few things before Adam probably dies and the fandom rejoices because I think we can all agree at this point. Adam is a bad character, morally and in the narrative itself.
That being said.
Adam is currently written to be a mess of the negative ex-lover tropes. (I seriously think the staff forgot that he’s suppose to be in his early twenties and Blake is still a minor)
He can’t even be called a villain anymore because not even the writers respect his character enough to be called a threat. Literally, it feels like the writers are trying their best to write him out of the show because by doing so it’ll write away any negative implications his character has on the theme of being a Fanus. 
The most present Adam, wants to murder Blake. Except that he’s taking a damn long time to do it, I guess because they wanted the allusion to a beast stalking their prey, but like, he could’ve just shot her on the train. His sword is also a gun after all. But I suppose a mecha fight isn’t enough, haveta finally deal with this character that no one likes, probably going to end up killing him because, I don’t know, metaphor for overcoming trauma. Except that’s not how it works, but I digress.
When in reality, it would be really simple to imply what built him up to be a fallen hero, villain,  dickhead.
It goes back to a quote from Adam’s character short, and one moment from Final Fantasy 13 it reminded me of. 
Warning, I’m going to talk about dark stuff, aligning with experimentation and slavery. If you’re not comfortable with that please do not read.  
This is what I think Adam’s story should’ve been set as. 
- Adam is from Atlus. We first see him as a child, at first uncertain to who this child is. They have a collar around their neck, and from behind a cage we see them look through the crack of a door, towards a red rose sitting on a desk. That’s all we get so far, just that he’d specifically from the place that we know does not treat Fanus well, from a time before the White Fang was an organization. 
From that we jump to when Adam already has the mask on, having a more lighter demeanor, reserved, but quick witted at times. He was Blake’s mentor so would be someone person who had experience in combat, and was the one who had been working alongside Gera and Kali to bring equality for Fanus. What his character short should have portrayed was someone who looked up to Gera as a father figure. Building up their relationship as something that Adam treasured though not outwardly as to keep his composure. 
We know nothing about Adam’s childhood, so it would be easy for him to find a sort of mentor figure in the leader of the White Fang. Vice Versa, Gera could’ve seen Adam as like a son, someone with great potential who could’ve led the White Fang should he decide to step down, something that Adam of the past should never wish to see. At that point, he would’ve not only been Blakes mentor, he would’ve been someone she looked up to as a Big Brother which makes more sense as to why Adam would care about Blake’s opinion. 
The moment Gera decides to leave the White Fang is when Adam is betrayed for the first time. At this point, the rise of aggression is triggering a response from the humans, fear. And it does seem to be effective more than Gera’s methods, something that Kali assures him of. When Adam confronts Gera, he’s furious, asking why he’s abandoning his fanus brothers and sisters, and Gera just looks at him in disappointment. Saying that fear isn’t the way to bring Fanus equality, and that their actions will just hinder the cause. But that doesn’t sit well with Adam, because right in front of him is a man who is running away from something he cannot control. So he asks, is it because you can’t control the White Fang, or because you can’t control me? 
Gera doesn’t respond instead just walking away from him, similar to how Blake leaves in the Black trailer. 
From then on, Adam is more aggressive and unrelenting. Everything that Gera taught him is thrown away as he becomes more self serving. It’s around this time that the White Fang adopts a similar kind of mask that Adam wears, signifying their transition to being a terrorist organization. He kills more, and just as before, has nothing but contempt for humanity. Yet throughout all of this, Blake is the only person who hasn’t abandoned him. She sided with him when her father left and is the only family he has left. So of course he’d lie to her, telling her that every action done in service towards spiting Gera was in service of their cause. At first she believes it, but isn’t fooled for long after that. 
Once she leaves, just like her father, all Adam has left is the White Fang. He places all his time into protecting that, his hatred for humanity bubbling up more as there comes a chance to eradicate a city populated with them. But when he sees her again, it triggers all the anger festering inside him. He blames her for abandoning him, thus he lashes out, demeaning and terrifying her. Because now this is not the person she knew and looked up to, this person is a monster. So then he traumatizes her and Yang, but can’t let go of his hatred towards people he once considered family. 
Once Blake returns to menagerie, Adam does call for their deaths. But he is more focused on making the Fanus the dominant race. His relationship to Hazel could’ve been interesting, if he’d acknowledge Hazel’s morality when it came to Sienna Kahn. That Hazel was just as complicit as he in the destruction of Becon, so why should another death matter to him. On the flip side Hazel making a jab of Adam supposedly garnering the loyalty of his followers, resulting in the betrayal of their own leader. Gera would’ve been hinted at as Adam would mention that every leader past betrayed their predecessor, so he would be no different. 
When the White Fang are call to destroy the tower in Haven, it practically kills Adam to see Gera and Blake standing against him. That the people he considered family are standing against him now. He blames both Blake and Gera for being weak hearted and abandoning the cause once they saw something they couldn’t control. This overwhelming of emotions makes him sloppy, but it takes Gera, Sun, and Blake to all take him down, however, he still escapes. 
During RWBY’s journey towards Atlus, we see that Adam is tracking Blake, not on a train, just tracking her. Once he gets her alone, he mocks how she’s not a true Fanus so long as she remain’s on the side of humans. That she preaches about equality of fanus yet does nothing to push back the injustice done to their people. He mocks her, saying that they’re alike, which she refutes, now fully seeing him as a monster. However Adam says was once just like her, that he believed in Gera’s peaceful methods, but ultimately they failed, just as she will. Blake would say that she wouldn’t make the same mistakes as her father, and Adam responds with that she already has, never fully understanding the full extent of injustice done to Fanus, and that Atlus will never be a safe place for their kind. 
After that Blake and Yang defeat Adam. Easily handing him as a trade to cover up the giant battle that took place, after all he’s a fanus terrorist. 
The last we see of Adam is an officer assuring the team that the Fanus will never cause harm again. And this relieves both Blake and Yang, however we see a hint of shock on Blakes face as she turns around to see a muzzle being placed on Adam’s face. However, Yang and the rest of the team reassure that they’re being cautious when handing him. To which she agrees, and that is the last they will see of Adam. 
The final scene shows Adam being brought to his knees, surrounded by cages of Fanus, either Feral or cowering. All chained up with collars and muzzles. A scientist approaches him, his face not shown, only keeping a red rose in his breast pocket. 
He examines Adam as one would livestock, a smile appearing on his face, “It would seem you’ve come back my love. Appears as though you’ve lost some of your quality, but there must be some use for you.” 
The scene then switches to outside of the room, where there are only the sounds of violent tools cutting and drilling. This is the last we see of Adam, as he never returns, as indicated by the last rose falling from the vase of a now dead flower. 
- Few notes. 
-The term, “My love, acts as a phrase of used derogatorily.” As one would call a pet, “My love.” It’s meant to be insulting when Adam says it, rather than affectionate. 
- “It’s time we stood up for ourselves. Our kind has been beaten, murdered, treated like dogs. 
In this idea, there’s an implication of experimentation, that every fanus criminal is subjugated to this treatment because they don’t have the same rights as human, thusly they’re a legal gray area. 
On the flip side, when capture while they’re young few are sold off as pets to the higher class of Atlus. When I first heard that line previously quoted, it reminded me of a scene from FF13, where the people are essentially pets to be used for the needs of, essentially, demi-Gods. They’re nurtured until they have use, and once their use is fulfilled they’re disposed of. In reality, the same would apply to exotic animals, being bought and sold off the black market when they’re young to rich people who enjoy the idea of them. But are eventually rid of once they’re grown and a hassle to take care of. 
So since there’s no clear depiction of Fanus discrimination, I made it up, and look where that got us.

7 note worthy skills: Loyal, Altruistic, Kind, Compassionate, quiet (yes I consider this a good trait), very open-minded, and strong (physically I mean, mentally is up for debate)
7 noticeable sins: I’ll admit I’m lazy, somewhat immature (I swear a lot and my favorite is the F word), I do procrastinate, I am food aggressive, a wee bit selfish and show no mercy to backstabbers, bullies or people who just annoy me (a kick to the groin, a harsh, tear-inducing insult, a dark secret exposed or get them in trouble with a teacher.)

As for Siger and Violet, I haven’t met them or got to know them but I’m sure they’re lovely (if they’re your parents, I’m sorry for not realizing that, I’d just like to say that they are what I would want for grandparents, they are so sweet, I love them.) Eurus, I feel that she had so much potential, but I really don’t know how to feel about her. On one hand I am just as impressed with her intelligence and skills as I am with Sherlock, but I’m also pretty terrified of her.

Mentorship (Need time to learn, but can I will get the idea)
Relationship (If you’re up for it, then I’ll give it a try)
Partnership (So like be the John to your Sherlock?)
The Question portion:
Please note that you do not have to submit the pictures within your submission (save the puzzle) but you must answer them honestly and do so without cheating.
1)
The angle of C looks to be 45 degrees, while A and B ~15 and ~30 degrees. There’s no attempt at math on this one, just looking at the pictures, I can assume the angles A and B add up to C.
2) Solve the puzzle:
First off I love Sudoku, I play it whenever I get the chance. Couldn’t figure out how to write on the pic so: (This one was a good one, had to really sit and work on it for a like an hour)
            812       753       649
            943       682       175
            675       491       283
            154       237       896
            369       845       721
            287       169       534
            521       974       368
            438       526       917
            796       318       452
3)
Don’t know, and Cheryl is being really “extra” as the kids say now, by not saying what her birthday is, I would have not given her a gift.
4)
Shoot Mr. White. I don’t know but he hits his shots all the time I’d at least try and hit him.
5)
Change the first plus sign into a 4 (545 + 5 + 5 = 555) 
6)
He can’t reach the button for the 10th floor in the elevator so he has wait till there are more people to press the button for him.
7)
Seen this one too. You pick two switches to turn on, one stays off, after waiting a bit, pick one of the switches that is on and then go into the room. If the light is on then it’s the switch still on, if off, touch the bulb, cold=the switch that was always off, warm=the one that was on then turned off.
8)
Don’t care. These gods sound like dicks.
9)
Why can’t he just go to Mary’s house and give her the ring? John is lazy and illogical, that is my deduction. I don’t know.
10)
Flip it upside down and it’s 87. Seen this one before too.
11)
I don’t know! This is the kind of riddle that makes me want to hit the creator in the face. Hints would be nice too.
12)
Alex is screwed. He jumps, he dead. He somehow survives, he’s burned or he starves, he dead.
13)
A. Anne could be married or not. If she is married and looking at George then yes, a married person is looking at an unmarried person, but if she’s not married the its still yes, cause Jack is married.
14)
Nope. Math was not my best subject.
15)
1? No clue.
16)
This type of math I can do, n=10. (10^2 - 10 - 90 = 0)
17)
Vince did it but I’d say “you’re all paying for the new window, I don’t care who broke it.”
18) Where does the English horn (Cor Anglais) come from? I’m assuming not England. Cor Anglais is French, but I doubt it’s from France. I don’t know.
19) What is brass composed of? Copper and Zinc
20) Who was the FIRST great artist that contributed to the Italian Renaissance? Masaccio. Thanks Art History!
21)
No.
22)
Don’t know but I known that I wouldn’t be at that party.
23)
How about nope
24) Is the dress blue and black or white and gold?
Blue and Black and I never want to here about this dress again. I hate dresses and I hated this meme when it came out on the news.
25)
I had to read this damn thing like 6 times, but I figured it out! There is no letter “e” in the entire thing. Kind of cool given that “e” is the most common letter used in the English language.
(I liked this submission form. It’s defiantly more challenging and has to do with a lot more problem solving than the last one. I like puzzles and some of these really made me think.)
Mycroft’s answer:
Melissa, I must say that I have heard many odd phrases in my lifetime both directly and in passing but never something akin to ‘I got burned with Holy Water once while at the Vatican' even with faulty translations at best. I would assume their would be a good story in correlation with that statement? I find it refreshing that you can take rejection so well despite stating that this is a regular occurrence for you. It takes a lot of time and practice for something like that not to effect you anymore and in the few times that I have been on the brunt end it does still carry a sting for me. But in private mind you as I cannot have my competitors or coworkers see me in a state of disarray. While I cannot say with any true glee that I have always been for the sciences ( my heart has always been on external things that tend to change more rapidly and could be controlled at a faster rate) than what concerns the inner workings of the human body much less than that of an animal however, I do have some know how about avian species and reptiles as Sherlock was wont to play with them. I am quite pleased that you attempted the puzzle and even more so that it is correct. My only issue is that if I took you up on a partnership is that you cannot be vindictive toward clients in a direct way. As a partnership with me would include dealing with some rather self-centered diplomats or government officials I'm afraid that in any instance of 'wrong doing' we would simply grin and bear it until the proper time comes to exploit it for personal gain. You can't exactly run the world if you burn too many bridges and make far too many enemies and you can see that with Mr. Moriarty's circles as well.  You may not be too fond of the partnership considering on how  big these meetings tend to run but rest assured we do need more  Esperanto speakers. Just remember that in public everything must be clean and pristine which includes talk, work and the like but in private I will find no complaints from me. 
Friendship: 8.6/10
Mentorship: 8.1/10
Relationship: 6.79/10
Partnership: 7.56/10

Annoying dilemma about factoring age into car insurance rates?
Okay this is annoying me. My car insurance policy is up for renewal very soon. It is a 6-mo policy. I am currently 24 yrs old but turning 25 literally 7 days after my policy renews. As you might know, generally car insurance rates decrease when you turn 25, because 25 is the age threshold that is no longer considered to be a high risk age group. However, my car insurance company insists on rating my entire 6-mo policy as a 24-yr-old...which means that for literally 96.2% of my policy period, I will be 25 yrs old but paying the higher rates of a 24-yr-old. This does not make me feel happy or appreciated. >:( So I was wondering...what would you do? Should I switch insurance companies shortly after turning 25 so that I can get a better rate, and then perhaps switch back to my old company sometime shortly later? Is there a way I can negotiate with a manager so that he/she will re-rate me shortly after my 25th birthday? Thanks for the feedback.""

Car accident - insurance policy?
3 days after renewing car insurance in April this year, a total baboon slammed into my car whilst I was driving home, writing my car off. 3rd parry has admitted liability, and all costs for car replacement, car hire, paid for by them. since cancelling my old insurer , and going with someone new to save 200 bucks a year, they ( my old insurer ) are saying I will be charged for the time you have received insurance cover as well as cancellation fee . Now , I can possibly swallow the cancellation fee crap, but, I have already paid them the premium over the period concerned ( insurance renewed on 20th April, accident on 23rd April). so what do they mean by their statement ?

I have title to my exes car and pay their insurance. How do I get out of it?
Me and my girl broke up a year and a half ago. She's a real piece of work. We lived together for 3 years and had everything is each others names. Utility bills, cell phone bills etc. She never paid any of her bills on time and it destroyed her credit. I signed for a car for her because she's had multiple DUI's and didn't have the credit to get her own. She made the payments on it and I never put any money down. The car title is in my name and she has paid it off. She can't get insurance because of the DUI's. I just want to be done with it so I don't have to deal with her anymore but she wants me to hold off until she finished her DUI classes to get a reasonable rate on insurance. She's been telling me the same thing for a year plus. I'm not even sure if she's taken or taking these classes yet or not. I asked her about it the other day and she never responded to me. I had left her a voicemail and she never called me back. This really pisses me off. So my question is if I sign the title and make her sign it as well do I have any more resposibility with the automobile? I just want to drop her from my insurance and give her the title. Is she wrecks or, god forbid, kills someone while driving am I liable for anything?""

ok i may be a little ranting cuz i was at fault for causing my first accident a long time ago, so my rates would go up. this got me thinking, the car was under someone else in my family's name, and the basic idea ive come to question is: after decades of paying for insurance with no accidents, it would probably be more than enough to cover the car repair damages instead of paying for all those years in addition the first accident i got into causing the rates go up? so i mean, isn't car insurance somewhat like a scam since obviously theres not as many accidents as there are people driving without any incidents?""
How much to insure audi 80 tdi (1.9 litre) ?
I am soon to be 17 and take my driving test, I have an audi 80 tdi being offered to me for 50 with the only fault being a broken break light. It is a 1.9 litre diesel and is apparently (according to the internet) cheap to fuel. Insurance no doubt on a 2.0 litre would be expensive. On the car insurance websites I get quotes from around 6500> I've heard however that the price on the websites is exaggerated and actually the price is much cheaper. How much do you think it would cost me to insure ? How could I reduce this cost? Is it worth getting a pass plus certificate? If the insurance on this IS a ridicuous price as it says on the insurance websites, what saloon car is cheap to insure? (preferably with a modest engine size:P) Thanks""

I am under my parents metlife auto insurance.. recently my 03 DTS was hit in a hit and run while parked in the parking lot and my right bumper is cracked and tailight is slightly damaged.. I took it to local body shop and got an estimate of $932.00 for repair. Insurance deductible is $250 There are no claims on my familys auto-insurance, My parents are to worried that it may increase their insurance rate if a claim is filed... When I called Metlife to ask them would there be an increase if claim was filed they gave a B.S. answer saying that they dont know until after everything is done and then they decide.... So from your guys experience do you think rate will increase?........ If I cant proove that it woulnt increase its looking like Im gonna have to pull $932 out of my pockets""

Should I be pestered to buy more insurance?
I have the current minimum coverage for auto insurance required by state. About 2 years ago I changed agents so that it is closer to me. At the time I was told how horrible my coverage is and for like $3 month I can get so much more. I just had a car problem and gave a towing bill my insurance covers. He was telling me again how horrible my coverage is. I feel if I have the minimum coverage and it is all I want that he shouldn't be telling me to buy more. Is it fair for me to be asked to buy more insurance if I don't want it?
