Video - Locked to A shit ton of people below.

Locked to Team RWBY, Nora Valkyrie, Sun Wukong, Neptune Vasilias, Professor Ozpin, Adam Taurus, Zuko, and Luke Triton

[Turning on her device, she looks anything but happy and it's taking everything in her power to not go straight out and hunt him down herself.]

Take care since our dear hated foe, Roman Torchwick, is here.

No doubt he has plans for here but there's still information from him I need to get and I will find a way to get it.

I don't believe there's a real police force here that we can just simply report him to without evidence to support.

Those of you not from our world, please take care. You especially, Luke. He's a dangerous man even without his words.

Oh. Right. I keep forgetting that animals in my world aren't like the ones in yours. [ like how weiss's dog was just a dog. ] Purple pentapus swim. They don't have wings and aren't like the sky bison. They can't fly or airbend. So trying to teach them to fly is kind of a futile effort, you know?

[ he nods, following. ] That she's not getting herself into something she may have trouble getting out of. Got it. I'll keep an eye on her.

I think I understood the reference. [Offers a faint smile. She knows how awkward it is having to explain jokes or random sayings. Sometimes if she quotes books the others look at her like she's lost her mind.]

Thank you then.

Weiss, told me about some of your firebending. I'd love to be able to see it someday.

She did?

[ he sounds surprised, if only because he and weiss are still giving one another the silent treatment at this point. ]

Uh, sure. I wouldn't mind that.

[That surprised tone catches her attention sure enough and she tilts her head curiously.]

You're surprised she did? She boasts about you a lot. [Skills, physique, ~~apparent size in the pants~~]

[ the face zuko makes is more strained that he'd like it to be. he knows he has a good poker face, but something about this situation has his dismay seeping through those carefully constructed walls. ]

A little, yeah...

[Curious yellow eyes still watch his features, squinting now and then before leaning back on her bed, still with her device in hand.]

Everyone at Beacon was more or less in love with her. As her Teammates, we'd...sort of get used. If they were on our good side, then we could speak highly of them to Weiss. Soon, it became a chore to even talk to boys.

Weiss never let on that she cared about any of them, no matter how hard they had tried.

The way she talks about you? I've never seen that. She gets ridiculously happy, boasts about all your skills but always does it in a way that makes her smile.

I know she's a brat sometimes. Heck, even half the time I don't like her or- maybe it's my own jealousy that she's the princess I've always wanted to be and I'm just...the shadow behind her. [She gives a partial shrug.]

Just know you're thought of in high favor.

[ wow ]

[ he's an idiot ]

[ and feels like a total asshole ]

[ weiss has mentioned having admirers, but hearing it from someone else drives the point home. what did she even see in him? he was a scarred, temperamental fuck up who was bad at being good and was probably going to get himself killed in the near future. yet, he'd accomplished something none of the boys back home ~~except for neptune?~~ had been able to achieve.

and he was ruining it by continuing to be angry at her for something that was so trivial in the long run.

sages, he was a moron. (yet he was still angry) ]

I should consider myself lucky. ...but I don't think she sees you as her shadow, if that means anything. When she talks about her team, she speaks as if the four of you are equals.

Edited 2014-11-24 08:49 (UTC)

Perhaps. Again, I know she can be a brat sometimes but- I think that just comes with being in the position she is; a daughter of an Industrialist.

And..equals, I do like to think we're there but it took a lot of trials and tribulations and trust. In the beginning, I didn't think she even wanted to be apart of our team but- she grew a lot. Still bossy sometimes but we've also learned to read the signs.

[Tilts her head to glance at him through her feed.] Kind of like what has to be done with relationships.

And I'm the son of a king. I get that position. Or I did, anyway.

[ a w k w a r d ]

I couldn't tell. It's always sounded like she's wanted to be a part of the team.

[ even more awkward: ] Y-yeah...

A real prince with our world's princess. Can't get much more romantic than that.

She- certainly thought she deserved the leader's role of our team, probably because her family expects nothing less than perfect. But, again, she has indeed come a long way at Team Play rather than Weiss Play.

[Rubs her chin in thought.] I'm no expert, far from it, but to me she just sometimes seems...lonely. Boys at our school always after her because of her title but, also because they see her as a Princess I guess. Being that elevated in the world seems to be stressful and lonely. When she talks about you though? That all seems to fade.

[ WHY IS HE SO STUPID? ]

[ a sigh. ]

Being at top is hard. A lot of people don't get that, because that's usually the kind of ideal life they want to lead. They don't get how restrictive it can be to have your entire day planned out for you, how suffocating it is to have an entire retinue of handlers following you wherever you go. Half the time, you can't even participate in your own festivals because you're too busy sitting at the top of it like some sort of centerpiece that's beyond having fun.

[ bitter bitter bitter — but maybe not entirely at his royal upbringing. something else is clearly eating at him. ]

No, people don't tend to understand that. Pressure is pressure, no matter where it comes from. I understand people want the stability but- not the pressure that comes with such titles.

[But she listens a little more carefully; sure he's spouting about those kinds of things, but there almost sounds like an undertone of something more.] Maybe that's why you two get along so well. Kindred spirits and what not. Misery loving company.

I take it you've a lot of bottled up emotions?

Yeah. [ :/ ] Nobody wants to stop and think about what it might mean to be the progressive one in the family and what eventually — maybe — being the one to take over everything will be like. Woo, assassination attempts and oppressive regimes trying to make a comeback!

[ cut the sarcasm, zuzu. ]

You have no idea.

I think that's how Weiss feels with her family's company. One day she might take over the Schnee enterprise and that will only paint a larger target on her. [A target Blake had a hand in dealing with once upon a time when she and Adam stole a train car of Schnee Dust. It was only later she found out that Weiss' father would take out his aggression on her... Ugh, those are the kind of memories Blake hates herself the most for. Just furthering proof that if it weren't for a little bow hiding cat ears, she'd just be considered an inhuman creature, rapscallion, as Weiss had called Sun once.

Gives a quiet sigh and leans her head back against the wall.]

You should let some of those out before it overflows. Usually keeping it contain ends in disastrous explosions.

Or hunt some creatures in the forest. Sometimes physical things like fighting helps clear the head as well.

Been there, done that, explosions and all.

[ this time, when zuko sighs, he sighs flames. ]

Well, bending explosions. Pretty sure the pillar of fire I made out of the campfire we had on the beach could be seen from islands miles away.

...I don't hunt, and I get in plenty of training hours. [ literally rising with the sun meant you were up and ready whether you wanted to be or not. ]
