[Video] RIP welcoming hologram
[The video clicks on to show Pascal standing just outside the Bay. She waves at the camera.]
Hey! So, I saw the hologram already. Blah blah abduction, trapped forever, get a job, blah blah. Got a question, though!
[The camera swivels to the hologram stand-- or what was the hologram stand. It's lying in pieces now with all the circuit boards exposed. Pascal continues in the same cheery tone as if this was a totally normal and acceptable thing for her to do. She waves a screwdriver at various parts of the circuitry as she talks.]
I can see that the zippy bit goes to that lump-thing there and I'm guessing that click-click is what's making the projection, but what's the power source? I thought it might be that thing--[She points at an empty container, which anyone from Remnant might recognize it as a dust cartridge.] but when I popped it open to take a look, it was just like-- FWOOSH! And then, uh, that happened.
[She swivels the camera to show that a sizeable chunk of the Bay around her has frozen solid. This includes the water she's standing in. She doesn't seem too concerned about the fact that she's frozen to the floor though. When she turns the camera back to her face, she's beaming.]
It was kinda like the stuff you can do with eleth, but I'm absolutely sure it wasn't eleth. So if you know what it was, help a girl out! Thanks!
[And the video clicks off without so much as an introduction.]

voice now i'm guessing?
...Which is not what she sees when she hears from Pascal again. ]
Remind me to take you into Vale sometime if you're that impressed with hover cars and chocolate.
Pascal's still video! She got new components instead of taking apart her phone.
I've got the thing though.
[She holds up the device. It's an unpolished prototype so it's all tiny circuit boards and long wires, but it does resemble her schematics.]
It's kinda wonky because apparently stuff here is powered on some kinda packaged lightning, but it'll work as long as we keep it out of the water. You want me to bring it over, or you wanna meet at the bay, or what?
Roger! video it is then.
Meet me at the Schnee Company building just outside of the Bay.
Video / Action
[She's practically hyperventilating. Yeah, Weiss, you're not getting out of that offer now.]
Ok, right, Schnee Company building outside the bay! I'll be there in a flash!
[Spoiler alert: she's not there in a flash. She used all her money on gadgets and components so she has to go on foot, and before she can start walking she has to
bullyconvince a shopkeep to hold some of her works in progress behind the counter for a bit. She probably should've had the foresight to rent a locker or something before she made all this stuff, but hey, it worked out!She takes one extra invention with her, though. When she shows up at the Schnee Company building, she's gained a few inches thanks to her scissor-lift shoes. She's got them collapsed because it's just not practical to walk around on two-foot tall platforms, but now if she needs to be super tall she can! You know, in case she needs to make herself look big to scare off a wild animal, or reach something on the top shelf as part of the job interview. She's not really sure what a job interview entails so she figures she'll just be prepared for anything!
She clunks her way into the lobby with the wires of the motion sensor camera draped across her shoulders like an avant garde necklace and pauses just inside the doorway, searching for Weiss.]
Action
You are going to take less time than that to get here if you work for me.
[ It wasn't a question. ]
Follow me.

[She follows, but she's not paying much attention to Weiss. She's more interested in her surroundings.]
Is all this your company, or are you sharing the building or what?
