Second Castle: Uncertainties [Closed]

[heartboop]

Who: Team JNPR- Jaune, Nora, Pyrrha, and Ren
Where: Remnant House
When: April 15th
What: The team is together again, but nothing can ever be the same for them. Nora has a lot of doubts about everything that's going on.
Warnings: None??


Sitting on her bed, Nora has a hot stack of pancakes in the space between her crossed legs while looking at her scroll. It doesn't work here, but she could still access her pictures. She took a lot of pictures with her teammates, and all of them were before the big battle. She wasn't in much of a picture taking mood afterwards. Nora slowly munches on a pancake, scrolling through the memories, but her mind isn't entirely on the images in front of her. Most of her thoughts are on what the newspaper published about Weiss making deals with criminals. They may have spelled Torchwick's name wrong, but him getting a pardon, along with Mercury, makes her question everything.

"Uhm. Hey."

Jaune lets himself in without asking, but he brought along more syrup for her. Things just aren't the same without Nora. He's glad that she returned, but this is a lot of information for anyone to take in at once. He'd felt the same after being at the Dream Docks. It can't be easy for her.

"I brought syrup because I smelled pancakes. How have you been settling in?"

Nora looked up from her gaze and smiled softly. He didn't need permission to come in, anyway.

"Hey, Jaune. I could really use more syrup!" She really didn't need more. Her pancakes were bogged down with the stuff already. At this point, she'll just drink it. At his question, her smile faded as she shrugged. "I'm...it's...going."

Usually, the girl known for her gab had something to say for every situation...but this one. She sighed and patted the space in front of her, waiting for him to sit before she spoke up again.

"Jaune, I don't get what's going on here. First, Pyrrha was gone, and now she's not, now every baddie we ever faced is here, and now Weiss is giving out pardons for what they did here! I can totally understand that the things they did back in Remnant don't have much weight here, except to us, but...would she do the same for Cinder? I dunno if she did anything bad here, but I'm preeeeetty sure she did, is she gonna get a free pass, too?"

Nora had a lot on her mind, and she couldn't make sense of any of it.

"I haven't spoken to Weiss since I arrived, and I'm not sure if I could now, without feeling angry, you know?" And she hated feeling angry at someone who was probably trying to spare more lives by negotiating with criminals. "What do you think about all of this?"

She stuffed two pancakes into her mouth and washed them down with syrup.

Pyrrha was on her way to go see Nora, but stopped outside of her doorway. It made sense that Nora would be overwhelmed. Honestly, it wasn't exactly easy for Pyrrha either. With everyone treating you like you'll break down at any moment and like you can't go anywhere without needed guarded was... tough. No matter how dead she was back home, she was alive here. So she just... couldn't seem to find her groove after coming back from the Dream Docks. Suddenly, she felt like what she said would have no weight in any argument or conversation.

Obviously, Pyrrha wasn't happy about the pardon, but she didn't really know how to deal with it otherwise. Hearing their conversation so far, she paused before deciding to just... go back to her room. It was just hard to face serious stuff like this right now when there was enough stuff weighing on her heart. But not without being seen on her way out.
