@Prince of SeraphsI'll admit I took liberties to what exactly the experiments did to Scoot, but if I had to use Zwei as an example of animal intelligence, I still say Scoot could easily obtain an equal amount of intellect while still being lead by his bestial instincts. Sure we don't really know if Zwei is an exception to the usual type of animals in the RWBYverse, but you gotta admit that of all the animals which might have an increase in intelligence, Scoot should be one of them.
@NarayanKSweet little sugar bunny. well, a few more post from others and I'll do a Gren post at least. One or two ought to do it.
