How come Jaune gets home so late?

He's become rather scarce since he started fraternizing with hansoo

"That's weird... Doesn't he know we have a field trip tomorrow?"

Pyrrha angrily proclaims, "I'm sure our leader knows exactly what he's doing."

Nora and Ren exchange glances, not knowing that Jaune himself is looking in through the crack of the door.

Mmmm... I guess so

Jaune hangs his head and closes the door, just as a voice interrupts his thoughts.

"jaune, Long time, no see! Did you lock yourself out again?"

Oh, uh, nope! (raises his Scroll, attempting to laugh) Got it!

Where have you been lately?

I, uh...I messed up. I did something I shouldn't have, and now hansoo has me on a leash, and Pyrrha won't even talk to me, and... (breathes heavily through his nose) I'm starting to think coming to this school was a bad idea. (presses his back to his team's door and slides down to the floor in depression) I'm a failure.

Nope!

'Nope?'

"Nope! You're a leader now, Jaune. You're not allowed to be a failure."

But... what if I'm a failure at being a leader?, I counter

"Nope

"You know, you're not the easiest person to talk to about this kind of stuff."

Nope! Jaune, maybe you were a failure when you were a kid... and you might've even been a failure the first day we met! But, you can't be one now. You know why?

" Uhhh, because...?"

"Because it's not just about you anymore. You've got a team now, Jaune. We both do! And if we fail, then we'll just be bringing them down with us. We have to put our teammates first, and ourselves second. Your team deserves a great leader, Jaune. And I think that can be you." (she walks over to her door and opens it as Jaune, now slightly inspired by her words, watches her wave) "Have a good night, Jaune!"

With new energy, Jaune pushes himself off the ground and faces the door, ready to turn the knob and face his team, but his Scroll beeps and he pulls it off of his side to open it, seeing kansoo contact relaying a message.

Hansoo (on-Scroll): Hey! It's hansoo , I know you're probably busy with your team right now I'm gonna need you to meet me on the roof top now

On the roof top

" that's enough for tonight, go get some rest!"

blonde hero sighs and makes his way to his dorm

"yes, students, the forest of Forever Fall is indeed beautiful. But we are not here to sight see. Professor Peach has asked all of you to collect samples from the trees deep inside this forest, and I'm here to make sure none of you die while doing so.", professor g announces.

Kansoo Pov

I've decided to test blonde hero's abilities in real situations. with Black Mail(C) , I made warrior c act out a situation I've planned

cardins pov

Greeeeat, great, great. So, Jaune, I bet you're asking yourself, 'Why did my buddy Cardin ask me to collect six jars of tree sap when there's only five of us?'

"That is one of the many questions I have asked myself today, yes."

Well, come with me, and you'll find out.

Jaune moans and gulps in worry.

Ren, kneeling to collect it from a tree, passes a full jar to Nora, who "Mmmm!"s at the gift as Ren trades it for the other jar in her care. He turns back to the tree and starts filling it up while several licking sounds are heard off-screen until the camera pans back to Nora, now with an embarrassed smile covered in red and an empty jar in her hands.

"Cardin, wh-what's going on?"

"Payback."

"Pyrrha...? Wh-what are you-?"

"That's the girl. Red-haired know-it-all, thinks she's so smart. Alright, boys... Last night, old Jaune here managed to round up an entire box of Rapier Wasps, and now, we're gonna put him to work."

Russel grabs Jaune by the shoulder, who barely laughs in nervousness.

Now, according to one of the essays you wrote for me last week, these nasty things loooove sweets. (Pyrrha is seen finishing her sap collection) I'm thinking it's time we teach her a thing or two

And you're gonna do it. Do what?

"Hit her with the sap! Either that, or I'll have a chat with Goodwitch, and you'll be on the first airship out of Beacon."

No.

" What did you say?"

"I said... NO!"

He turns and throws the jar at Cardin, instantly recoiling his hands to himself as he looks at Cardin's breastplate covered in sap. The other team leader, however, just looks at himself and laughs darkly.

"Oh, you've done it now..."

" You know that wasn't very smart, Jauney boy, I'm gonna make sure they send you back to mommy in teeny tiny pieces.

" I don't care what you do to me... but you are not messing with my team."

"What? You think talk like that makes you tough? You think you're a big strong man now?"

" Let's see how much of a man you really are..."

Just as he says this, a low growl is heard, and a surprised Team CRDL turns around and sees a large paw crash onto the scene, belonging to a huge Ursa Major with dozens of jagged spikes sticking out from its wide back. It leaps forward and stands over the terrified students, lifting its head in the air to smell the sap on Cardin's breastplate. It lands back on its forelegs and roars at Cardin while his teammates heroically flee.

" That's a big Ursa!"

Hansoo pov

its nothing to bad Id easily be able to take care of it encase things go more south

my theory is

Hero + life risking situation + friends being threatened + getting their ass kicked

= bullshit power up

knowing that this is fantasy there is an 80% chance that this will work
