"Weiss! Please please please!"
Weiss rolled her eyes and tried to focus on the textbook in front of her. Her test in Grimm Studies wasn't for over a week, but Weiss was always prepared well in advance. At least, she always tried to be. Sometimes her girlfriend made that goal… less than achievable.
Weiss ignored another of Ruby's pleas for her attention as she dragged a highlighter over an important passage, making sure to remember it for later. She grimaced as Ruby grabbed her shoulder and shook her, shaking her highlighter across the page in a messy scrawl, the passage she'd meant to highlight left bare in favor of a random line across the page. Weiss took a deep breath to suppress her growing frustration as she gave in and turned to face Ruby. The younger girl was practically glowing as Weiss finally gave in and turned her attention to her. Ruby stuck out a controller covered with buttons that Weiss couldn't even begin to comprehend.
"So you'll play it?" Ruby asked excitedly.
Weiss scoffed. "No. I just want to get this straight."
Ruby nodded in excitement, waiting for Weiss's next words.
"You read the book I suggested to you," Weiss said.
"Uh huh."
"And now you want me to play some game that you like," Weiss continued.
"That's right!" Ruby exclaimed, offering Weiss the controller once more.
Weiss looked down at the mess of buttons and sticks and sighed. "Ruby, how long did it take you to read that book?"
Ruby thought for a moment. "Uh, like four days? It was pretty short."
Weiss nodded. "That it was. Now, in return for that, you want me to play…" Weiss trailed off.
Ruby's excitement drained from her face as she realized what Weiss was implying. "A, uh, ninety hour RPG…" Ruby muttered. "Yeah, I didn't think about that… sorry."
Weiss rolled her eyes again. Of course she didn't. Ruby barely tended to think at all, if you asked Weiss. But, seeing Ruby so crestfallen wasn't something that Weiss particularly enjoyed. She sighed, and resigned herself to what was to come.
"Fine. Just give me the controller," Weiss huffed.
Ruby perked back up almost instantly. "Yeah! You'll be reachin' out for the truth in no time!"
Weiss didn't even know what that was supposed to mean, but if it made Ruby happy, she was happy to go along.
