[Today is one of those days, when a new arrival destroys the hologram with fire. ...Seems like she's completely overdoing it and the flames are still there when there's nothing else left. After a moment Cinder turns the device around to show herself with an arrogant smirk on her face. Nope, she's got no reason to hide at this point.]

Well, looks like most things haven't changed here. How very [pause, wait for it~] Disappointing.

[Ah, so not a new arrival then and despite the fire back there, she's calm. What did Weiss do to her? Nothing, but maybe destroying that thing is still much more personal when you come from the same world.]

And she's still saying "this place is fairly safe" even though anyone can wake up here whenever. So consider that when I ask you; do you believe her?

[Fairly safe sounds so boring after ~~almost~~ everything back home. Not that Cinder is really complaining about being here, this time the timing was great and there's always the option of making this place less safe. Be prepared?]

Deja vu, right?

[ Sup, boss, it's your favorite murderboy. The video doesn't really show anything about his location - just that it's dark, the glow from his device being enough to illuminate his face and little else. ]

I see the welcoming committee is out in force today.

[Finally someone, that she is extremely thrilled to see here! Hello favorite murderboy, is that a smile on her face? Why yes it is.]

Indeed, but without pretending this time.

[She probably should have done her post from somewhere else, but you know, live feed of the hologram burning for the brats? Can't miss that but maybe she should be moving away from her current location soon.]

You should hear the things that Ozpin is telling me.

[ Cinder in a good mood is enough to keep HIM in a good mood - because the alternative is one of the most terrifying things in existence, as far as he's concerned. ]

Ozzy's been running his mouth a bit, yeah. Especially with Emerald - thinks he can turn her around to his side, it sounds like.

[ ...That's not how you keep her in a good mood, Mercury. ]

He --- What?! [ She's going to kill th-- Wait wait wait, she's thinking back to that one moment when Emerald was acting kind of weird... ] Well, she said the destruction back home was almost sad while we were recording it...

[ That sounds like bad news for someone if she's been talking about shit like that with Ozpin. See, Mercury, this is why you're Cinder's favorite. ]

[ ... Oh. Oh, uh, okay, he can fix this. No problem! And even if she gets mad, at least it's not at him. No... problem... ]

Well, we did come up with some ideas on how to use this. If Ozpin thinks Emerald's turning around, she can be our eyes on the inside, right? We've worked out kind of a basic plan, if you want to hear it.

[ If Cinder ends up turning against Emerald because of this, the side he takes is clear - but if he can avoid having to actually murder someone he could almost call a friend, he'd prefer it. ]

[That is a great way to fix it. ...She just won't say that she still has her doubts because really, Emerald, saying that one line near Cinder is something she's not going to forget so easily. Well, that's not a problem right now, she still trusts the mintchip.]

Well, considering how all of us can't keep on pretending to be innocent students but eyes on the inside would be great...

[you two have learned to plan stuff, she might be proud but oh, now she's smirking here. Well done avoiding a fiercely mad witch, Mercury.]

Of course I want to hear it.

[ Hey, they managed to plan a flawless murder against Tukson that the authorities never managed to trace back to them! But then again, Cinder wasn't happy with them about that, so... never mind. moving on.

Her smirk, unsurprisingly, is returned with one of his own. ]

I thought you might.

Basically, Em's going to feed Ozpin some information. Some of it's going to be true, but nothing he shouldn't already know by now. She's not going to tell him what her semblance is - she'll be telling Ozzy that illusions are my semblance, and pretend hers is something else. That way they still don't really know what she can do, and my legs stay a secret.

Once she's talked to him, she's going to give me a signal to attack her. I'll break a rib or two, make it look convincing, and from there it's just a matter of letting those saps try to help her.

And you're absolutely sure, that no one can guess anything about your legs from that one public murder on the network?

[Hey just making sure because surely some people remember it and she wouldn't want a good plan to be ruined because of that.]

I had my boots on the whole time. That secret's still safe with us.

[ ~~it helps that he wasn't canonly confirmed to have robo-legs back when the murder took place so NOBODY KNEW AT ALL~~ ]

Perfect. Let's keep it that way especially since Ozpin thinks we're so "heavily outnumbered", that he even offered me a deal to escape execution.

[She sounds amused. ~~yepppp, but the things she needs to make sure anyway~~]

He offered you a deal? After everything you did, he's trying to barter?

[ He shakes his head in disbelief. ]

That's some idiot, there.
