A quick agglomerations of tiny theories than I believe aren't warranting of a separate thread.
Spoilers on ahead, be warned

1. Monkey D. Dragon, more like Monkey D. Stalkon?

I've been thinking about One Piece's initial arcs for a while, and made this sudden realization: Is Dragon stalking Luffy?! He appeared in Luffy's country when he was a child, then again in Dawn Island when he was leaving for the Grand Line, then he shows up in, spoiler alert, Dressrosa (well, indirectly). Is he keeping Luffy under tabs? No, but seriously now, there's an actual question on what drew Dragon to all of those places, the only real answer we got on his mission was the reason why the Revolutionaries were in Tequila Wolf (To free the non-allied countrymen from slavery, where they were made to build the giant bridge), but, there weren't many answers as to why he was at any of the other places.


2. Carue is going to the REVERIE!

Well, actually, Vivi is attending the next reverie, spoiler ahead, this year, alone. As in, Cobra will not be in the Reverie, and Vivi will act in his place as the sole representative of Alabasta's Royalty and the Nefertari founding Family of the World Government. In the cover story, From the Decks of the World, which, like all cover stories, is considered cannon, Nefertari Cobra is shown sick. Her acting so much more mature and the Reverie, as said by Fujitora, being scheduled for this year, makes it likely this is the path to take.
This is a very nice opportunity for Vivi to take a more central role in the story, and, if the Straw Hats to crash the Reverie, a nice reunion. Igaram is going to be there, most likely, same with Pell and Chaka, just not Cobra, thus the responsability of Alabasta falls entirely on Vivi.

On related news, it also makes sense for Shirahoshi to go to the Reverie, given her new found courage and thirst for adventure.


3. Momonosuke is not the son of Kinemon

Oh my, this one will be quite a stretch. Spoilers ahead. Momonosuke is Kaido's son! First of all, for some reason, Momonosuke is one of the aces in this huge poker game we're playing at Dressrosa. For numerous reasons already discussed and abused in the discussion threads, it is not because he ate the Smile fruit and became a dragon, at least not in my opinion. Btw, I believe the Smile fruit is not a mimicry of existing zoan fruits but merely a fruit that changes you into animals, all smiles being the same, but every person turning to different animals, sort of like their inner animal. Okay, so, we know something happened in the Samurai country, Wano, that made Kinemon, Momonosuke and Kanjuro go on a mission to Zo, which is regarded as Kaido's territory. It is also revealed (or at least it seems that way) that Kinemon was angry at the mention of Kaido's name, whereas Momonosuke was simply shocked. In my opinion, it is because Momonosuke recognized his name as the the target of their mission, while Kinemon knows something else, a secret per se. Obvious would be Kaido attacked Wano, possibly killing the current Shogun or stealing one of their precious cursed swords, and thus the mission is to retrieve them or get revenged, but what if he is in fact Kaido's son? Nah, doesn't make much sense, I'd vote on the fist hypothesis.

I have a feeling Momonosuke is going to play a key role not the immediate future but in future arcs in a couple of years. Maybe when D. Dragon launches an all out war with the help of the three Weapons.

Nice theory madam. Momo. being Kaido's kid wouldn't really explain why he isn't a beast o_O but it will explain why Doffy wants to capture him. Also, Fukaboshi will prob. attend not Shirahoshi.

Yeab, but I think she'll ask to go. Fukaboshi will represent the Ryuguu Kindgom, but Shirahoshi will be there. Like how Cobra was there representing Alabasta, but Vivi was present too

1) I don't believe Dragon is stalking Luffy as otherwise he would have helped him when Ace and Luffy were in trouble with Bluejam >.>

Actually there are reasons as why Dragon could have appeared in his own home country. For starters chronologically it's possible this was the same year (too lazy to count and check) as the Reverie of Dalton's flashback where Dragon was mentioned. At the time they were talking about how he was an upcoming threat. Remember what Dragon said himself when Ivankov asked why they went to such a remote corner of East Blue: because it represented all that is wrong with the world. That might have been the signaling point of him making his first real moves, making him the most wanted man in the world.

Also a Celestial Dragon popped up there, which might have been enough reason for Dragon to check it out.

In Loguetown that could have just been a plot thing, a coincidence or Dragon having heard of Luffy's shenanigans and wanted to let him sail into the Grand Line his own way.

2) She probably will, though I don't believe the Strawhats will crash the Reverie simply because till now the Strawhats have never turned back. Their journey always went forwards and I can hardly imagine they are going to hold the Reverie deep into New World territory. These are the most important and influenced people in the world and they are going to gather them in the face of the most merciless and infamous pirates in the world? Well Akainu might do something like that, however the Reverie isn't so much a Marines thing as a WG thing. I assume it's going to be at Mariejoia and the Strawhats will not make a direct appearance. They will be somehow involved though and the Reverie will be vital for the plot.

3) I don't really have an opinion about this as we still don't have enough info about the Momonosuke/Kinemon - Kaidou relationship. I don't believe however that Momonosuke is Kaidou's son. Seems kinda way too much something for a drama series on TV:

Kinemon: "Momo...I am not your father"

Momo: "Noooooooooooooooooooooooo"

I already believe that Momo eating the DF was a fluke and that there was another reason as why Doflamingo is so interested in Momo and why Kinemon took him with them.

3. I can agree with the first part of the third one because taking a child across the grandline for a misson doesn't add up.
When on a misson you never want something you have to protect, it becomes a liability, so why would three strong samurai take a child throughout the most dangerous part of the world. To me it sounds less like a misson and more like a delivery. Right to where laws crew is.
To me that sounds less like a father and some guy trying to deliver a kid.

Not necessarily they say the samurai are so strong that the world government wont invade wano. Part of the reason for that strength would be going on missions that a normal child would die on
