Office of the President, Schnee Dust Company Headquarters, Atlas

[Weiss Schnee, a member of the legendary four huntress team known as Team RWBY, looks as cold as the view shown by the glass wall behind her, that of the icy winds Atlas is known for. From her hair to her formal clothes, Weiss takes up to her name; the only exceptions being her red lips and crystal blue eyes, a faint scar over her left one. The current president of the Schnee Dust Company, Weiss Schnee's work in not just her company but also in the War against the Grimm is well known. She is the considered the third wife in the Arc harem.]

I'm honestly not sure if I should be impressed that you were able to somehow fit yourself into a schedule my own friends have to fight tooth and nail for or that maybe it's time I needed a new secretary.

[The status of Miss Opal Grace's employment as Miss Schnee's secretary is still being reviewed at this point in writing.]

So what were you here for again? No, actually don't answer that. I think I remember now. [A sneer forms on her face] When I read your e-mail, requesting this meeting, I had told Opal to decline it, not accept it. Actually, I'm surprised that it was even able to reach me when even my company's regional status reports don't.

[She brings out a bottle of wine and pours it into a single glass, filling it half-way.]

I'm a very busy woman. Running one of the biggest companies in the world leaves very little time for one self, even less for others. To get even an hour of my time, Ruby needs to follow a tight to the second schedule that has to be planned weeks in advance. Blake has to work within months. Yang, well, Yang just barges in, anyways.

And your husband?

My husband? Oh, you must mean Jaune.

[Raising the glass and taking a sip, she leans on her right hand, idly admiring the scarlet liquid, or perhaps the golden band around her finger.]

I'm still not used to it, you know, having to refer to Jaune as my husband. He's not exactly what I thought a husband would be like. He never got my name nor I his. It's not like we live with each other or sleep with each other every night. What we have isn't the normal. It's not like this whole harem situation is normal to begin with either. But of course, what do I know about normal family life?

[She takes another sip.]

I guess I could start with how we both met. How did it go again? Tall, scraggly, and blond, was it? Those were the words I had used to describe him, as some sort of sarcastic joke. He had thought that I was serious, that I was interested in some one like him. I wasn't, of course, but that didn't stop him.

So you weren't interested in him from the start?

Definitely not. The others may say otherwise with that tsundere word or whatever but I was honestly was never interested in him. Back then, I wasn't interested in anyone but proving myself really. [She stares into her glass of wine.] I was a bit more foolish back then and it took a while for me to wake up from my self-induced loneliness.

Did something happen?

Yes, but nothing too dramatic. I can't recall with but a professor talked to me about being the best me I could be or something like that. They're simple words that I've included in every SDC motivational speech I've given. Simple, yes, but sometimes it is the simple that brings out the best in people. That was pretty much it. After that, I actually bothered trying to get closer to my team and, you could say, Jaune, as well. While his attempts on asking me out continued, I didn't really bother giving him an outright refusal but I at least tried to be more gentle about it. Besides, Pyrrha was obviously interested in him so it wasn't like he had nothing going on.

By Pyrrha, do you mean Pyrrha Nikos?

Well, who else? I never really understood it myself but she was really into him and they didn't seem too bad a couple anyways. At that time, I also met Neptune so I had other things in mind besides Jaune. [A large gulp of wine is taken] Neptune was so perfect back then. Charming and handsome. His nickname for me was Snow Angel, the same one Jaune used to call me. It just sounded better coming from Neptune. Well, a lot of things sounds better from someone who looked like they were part of a boy band. I remember that Jaune was the one who pushed him to talk to me at the dance. I think that was the time I really started looking at Jaune Arc. It helped that he stopped asking me out around that time so he climbed up in my standing from annoyance to, well, not equal, but perhaps tolerated.

After that, things became much more stable. Jaune didn't bother me and I didn't have to be bothered by him. We were both getting close with Neptune and Pyrrha so he didn't really have any time for Snow Angel anymore which was fine by me.

You sound jealous.

Maybe, I am. Having someone give up on you so fast is an odd feeling, especially when you never wanted those affections. Of course, it's stupid to be jealous of something that happened years ago. Or be jealous of a girl who has been dead for around the same time. I guess what Yang said was true, hindsight's a bitch.

I take it things didn't go well?

Well, yeah. Having your school get overrun by Grimm isn't exactly "well". After that, the rest is history. My whole team was separated. With me leaving for Atlas, my already fizzling relationship with Neptune was pretty much dead by that point. And then there was Jaune who had just lost his partner. Sweet Vulnerable Jaune.

Pyrrha had meant something to me as well. In a way, she was the standard I put myself, the bar that had set myself up. I remember, when I was younger, I would follow her in the tournament circuits. Her poster was one of the very few things that I had allowed to decorate my empty room. I had thought at the time that with Ruby and I backing her up, we could take on anything. Hah! Ruby told me she was dead by the time she had arrived to the top.

[Wine refills the glass which is then immediately drank.]

I could still remember how his voice sounded like when he called me. He had called me to save her, to stop her and I said I would. [She chuckles] Days before that, I had reluctantly given him my number in case of an emergency where I would need to call team JNPR. This was the first time he had actually used it. For almost a year, he had been trying to get that number but when he did get it he used it with another girl in mind. That was just how important Pyrrha was for him. I'd like to think he'd sound the same if I was dying but it's hard for me to think that. It's much easier to remember how broken that boy was. He was lonely. I was lonely. It wasn't something that was supposed to happen but it did.

What do you mean?

Do I really need to spell it out for you? [Weiss twirls the glass in her hand, the wine almost spilling.] We had sex. He came up to my apartment to check on me. I was trying to see just how great a detoxifier my aura was. The next thing I knew I woke up sweaty, naked and late for my appointment with my father. I left without a goodbye or even a note for his sleeping form. After that, we, or at least I, pretended that it never happened. It's not like it was a mistake, just something that never needed to be brought up again. Then for the next decade or so, Jaune Arc and Weiss Schnee would never become anything more than friends. I wouldn't say all of it was my fault. Jaune couldn't hide his feelings even with a Grimm mask over his face. I could always see the hesitation and cautiousness in his eyes whenever we tiptoed around each other or maybe it was just my own feelings. Either way, it was never going to happen.

And yet it did. You're married to him.

Married, huh? You don't seem to understand what this Harem Pact we have is all about. What we have isn't the sort of stuff you see on television or in eastern comics where all the girls gather around the man in an orgy of pleasure. We're not all one happy family that share Jaune. If anything, I'd call it an arrangement, an accord, with other women.

Can you elaborate?

You asked earlier how I fit Jaune into my schedule,right? I'll tell you how. I write up a request or a time which I then have to send to the officiator of Jaune's schedule within the harem. Yes, I'm the one who has to fit herself into his schedule which, taking into account how tight my own is, means I've actually been with him the least of all of the wives.[She moves to drink the wine but stops herself short.] I...I do see the irony, you know. How our positions almost seem reversed from the beginning.

When that girl approached me and told me about some sort of Harem Plan, I had thought she was joking. Yet when she had shown me just how serious she was, I signed up a week later. Again, it was something simple. One day, I realized that I had been sleeping in this godforsaken office for the past week. You already know how high up this office is. One of the highest points in Remnant even. All I have for company is the view behind me.

[Weiss sets the glass down and instead stretches her arm in front of her. She admires the ring on her finger, a gold one with two golden wings along with a small diamond in between them.]

When I was much younger and when she was still healthy, my mother would tell me a story. She told me of how God created angels because he was lonely. Even with all his power and knowledge, he still remained alone in the skies. He created two, one from the purest of Ice the other from the whitest of Winters. However, as he was God with all his power and responsibility, even in heaven, he couldn't truly be with his angels. He also didn't expect the angels to get lonely as well. This was why, even through his overwhelming loneliness, he allowed them to be free. The first one, the one of Winter, broke free into the skies and joined the birds. The second one, made of the Ice decided to stay with God and help him rule heaven. In the end, when God went away to form a new world, the ice angel had all of heaven all to herself.

[Never looking away from her hand, she turns her back to me and faces the view outside]

I wasn't sure what my mother meant to teach us back then but now I have to wonder if I was too harsh on my father. After all, this too was once his office. I always wondered why he never brought my sister and I up here. Now, I'm thankful he didn't.

[Three days later, the Schnee Dust Company announced a new foundation known as All Under Heaven, a charity meant to make up for all the misgivings the Schnee family had done on fauna kind. This is to be headed by the president herself, Weiss Schnee, who will be transferring her office into the new foundation's building which will be located in Vale.]

AN: Most people wouldn't be able to guess but I'm actually more of a White Knight guy.

So the premise of this was if I could write an SI/Jaune Harem which I'm not really fond of so I decided to explore the idea of post-harem.

People always go Jaune x Harem when that meant Jaune with a ton of girls all over his cock and a lot of shipping moments.

However, you rarely see in fics the girls actually become a harem. How they establish a dynamic with each other and how they take the idea of sharing. This idea will be explored in If You Can't Beat Them (if I ever get to updating that).

This, however, is post-harem where a harem is already established so the question is what happens then? What's it like being in a harem? Is also noticably less jolly than my usual fics.

This was originally meant to be one of those film crews being given a tour of the place and the harem but the idea was too similar to another idea I had so I decided to bust out that those old J101 lessons. I generally don't like SI's but this one is reasonable for me.

This is more practice for me to write other characters than an actual fic though. Next character? I dunnow. I wanna try rither
