Okay so It kinda sucks that I even need to re-upload the Q&A special in lieu of the chapter itself but hey the bright side to all of this is it gives me a chance to answer some of the more recent questions as well as assure you all I'm still alive. And this won't just be a simple re-upload of the original Q&A with a few things added since if you're reading this you've probably already read that unless you skipped it. Which is understandable it wasn't the most riveting of Q&A's. So anyways let's get this rolling shall we?

So the first question of the second round comes from guest user Jerron. They ask "will beo be part of an actual team or will he only be learning how society works from goodwitch?":

This is a good question and one I half answered all the way back in chapter one during the Author's note. And it still rings true, Beo himself will not really be officially joining any team due to his status at Beacon as a probationary student. For two main reasons, one is in regards to the story itself and how I want to tell it. By keeping Beo outside of a team of OC misfits and not replacing a member of the main cast with our lovable Man-Grimm it lets me keep Beo from changing the cannon as drastically as he already does by existing. The second reason is due to pure laziness...it lets me as a writer if I say didn't want Beo to be involved with certain arcs or felt that if he was there he would just be useless and not do anything,

I can have the main cast doing things that happen in cannon while Beo is doing things that pertain to his development as a character which makes him seem more like a living part of the setting as opposed to an OC who was stuck to the main cast because of Author Bias. And in regards to the Goodwitch portion of this question, let's just say she's not the only one in charge of teaching Beo how the world works. From a certain perspective everyone that Beo meets is teaching him about the world outside of the forest. But at the end of the day Goodwitch is still the one who is overseeing his integration and making sure he stays out of trouble( for the most part)

Okay so that one had a longer answer than I thought it would have. So here's the second one from an unnamed Guest: Do you plan on making Beo comfortable to anyone else except yang and Blake?: Yes, it would only be natural for Beo over time to get used to other people outside of Yang and her circle. That being said. There are also several people that he will not get along with due to his predispositions and the effects of living in the Emerald Forest for most of his life.

I won't say who he wouldn't be caught dead associating with but the answers may surprise you. If you can deduce it than send me a PM if you're right I'll confirm it. But yeah I think that its only natural that eventually Beo would break out of his shell and associate with others. But for the most part his circle of interactions will be coming from the members of Teams RWBY and JNPR, to some extent, as well as the other teachers at the school.

That's it for the actual questions asked but this does give me a chance to address some other comments that I found interesting.

So this was left by Owens Left foot: Beo reminds me a LOT of father gascoigne with the whole blood-drunk werewolf thing, though i'm guessing that was intentional since you're a fan of bloodborne yourself.: believe me it wasn't intentional but its no secret that I love bloodborne, I am glad however that you drew parallels to that boss since its one of my favorites in the game outside of Lady Maria and Moonlight Presence. When it comes to Beo's bloodrage form while I did draw from Bloodborne in some aspects, I did also draw from things like Hellsing and other action shows. Also oldish horror movies.

But yeah that's it for this special addition to the Q&A gods at this point there is almost as many update chapters as there are actual chapters...not to self find a better way to let you guys know i'm still alive. Discord server maybe? I dunno I'm rambling at this point anyways next time you guys hear from me it will be in the authors note of the next chapter which has at this point two working titles. Too Many Cooks or Strangers Like Me

Anyways till we meet again this is Amouren signing off.
