Alrighty then, chicks and dicks, here we are! We are at the end of RWBY: Carbon. As promised, here's the Q&A. Yes, it may not be as...filling...as you had thought, but oh well. I also want to thank each and every one of you for taking the time to read my story and providing me so much support. You have no idea how much this really means to me.

Q: How did you create the character Carbon?
A: Grab some popcorn cause this will take some time to explain. Basically, one night I was on YouTube watching some RWBY videos, and I noticed the name "FanFiction" and term "OC" in the comments section. Curiosity got the better of me, and I decided to look it up on Google. One thing led to another and I came across a forum discussion in regards to creating Original Characters (OC). I scrolled through the forum and saw some of the great ideas a lot of these people had, so I thought to myself, "Eh, what the hell? Might as well give it a shot to alleviate my boredom." I got started, and soon I had the concept of Carbon. I thought back to memories of old movies and video games I used to play when I was younger to give me some...inspiration, and even went as far as to do research on certain topics such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Why did I have Carbon suffer from PTSD? Well I guess the whole thing in the news with Canadian soldiers committing suicide, and I guess it's a way of shinning some light on the problem in a sense. The story kind of puts you in the shoes of a soldier, who's seen things that cannot be unseen, and throw him into a situation where he's surrounded by people who will never truly understand what he's been through, if that makes sense. In reality, it's the perspective of a soldier returning home from a deployment, and being surrounded by friends and family who do not truly understand what he or she saw while deployed. So yeah, to sum it all up – I was bored one night, discovered FanFiction and OCs, decided to try and make my own OC, and this is how it ended up.

Q: Are you going to continue making fanfics for RWBY but with a new OC?
A: As a matter of fact, I am! I already have two(2) OCs prepped and ready, as well as another one currently in production, and possibly a crossover with a certain video game character, whom I will not disclose at this time, who ends up in the world of RWBY. A new story is scheduled to be released in the coming week, so be on the lookout for that.
Okay, well...that went by a little quicker than expected. Anyways, thanks again for your support, and I look forward to providing you with more entertainment in the future. As for continuing on with writing, keep an eye out for my new story which will release next week. I haven't quite thought of the title yet, but you know what? Since you guys (and gals) are so awesome, here's ONE (1) word to give a hint of what to expect:

Okay, with that out of the way, this concludes the Q&A and special announcement. I look forward to hearing from you guys in the next story, and until then, farewell.
Kindest regards,
