Alright, morning, suppose I should be glad I have a place to return to at night, at least until I get a partner...wait is there even gonna be enough people for me to get a team, god damn it, I'll have to do a headcount tomorrow at the cliffs, "better get a move on though, I think petals is arriving today," I say to myself walking out the door.
Between last night and this morning, I gave myself a trench coat, and swapped out my pistol for a revolver, no real reason, just that a revolver is cooler, walking down the hall, I ran into a coco Adel, yelping in shock we crashed to the floor with her coffee spilling over the both of us.
"Ah, hey what the Grimm!?" She shouted at me.
"Ah geez, I'm sorry miss- Err, well I don't actually know your name," I say getting up.
"Coco Adel, now you own me an outfit, and this cost quite a bit," she said wiping off any surface coffee.
"Right, well give me a cost and I'll pay it right now," I said bringing up my inventory and flipping to the creative menu.
"6000 lien," she said looking at me eyebrow raised.
Grabbing the specified amount of money, I hand her a bag of lien cards and a towel, "sorry about the trouble miss, I gotta get going though, friends of mine are disembarking today," I say rushing off, only have about a half-hour left before the speech, least that's what Goodwitch told me last night.
Reaching the outside world again, I get to the bullhead docks right as Ruby and her sister arrive.
"Oh hey, there he is," Ruby said pointing at me, "Hey get over here I want to introduce you to my sister!" She shouted waving her hand in the air.
"I'm coming, I'm coming," I said walking over.
"So Petals, who's your sister?" I ask ruby.
"Oh yang introduce yourself," she said to her sister.
"So your the guy who my sister talked about on the ship," Yang said eyeing me up.
"Apparently, in any case, miss ro-" I say getting cut off, I should probably keep playing dumb on the knowledge of their names until they tell me, now that I think about it.
"Xiao-Long actually, different mother," Yang said rubbing the back of her head.
"I see, well then, in any case, miss Xiao-Long we ought to get going to the main amphitheater, I believe we have about," I look down at my watch," 5-10 minutes left before the initial orientation starts," I tell the pair.
"Now then, let's get going," I say walking, oh about ten feet in front of me and completely demolishing an entire cart of luggage...wait a minute.
"YOU absolute dolt!" A shrill voice yells at me.
"Ahh geez, second time today, my god I really need to stop talking and walking today," I say getting back up and dusting myself off again.
"Don't you have anything to say for yourself," Weiss shouted again.
"Yeah, Ahh geez second time today, now I'm gonna need you calm down and breath, because you look like you're gonna blow a bleeding blood vessel," I say annoyed, god I hate when people yell at me, I swear she needs to be brought down a peg or two.
"Do you know how much that cost," she said angrily.
"Including my uniform, your clothes, and the cart, about 2500 liens worth, counting school property damage, it would be another 500," I say after using creative mode to get an estimate on the damage.
"Now would you like that payment in cash or check form, because you'll have to wait for a check," I say helping her butlers pick up the suit cases of dust.
"Hmphm," Weiss said and walked away.
"Nice job there lady killer," Yang said pointing in weiss' direction of departure.
"Yeah well, I try," I say chuckling to myself, picking up my dropped revolver, Ruby immediately rushed over and started asking questions. Mostly what happened to my pistol, I said that I'll explain it after initiation.
Walking into the amphitheater, me and ruby got separated leaving me alone in the crowd, looking around I see a blond tuft of hair sticking out above the crowd, Jaune probably, couldn't hurt to chat with the kid, I did kind of usurp his entrance in the show proper.
Walking over to the kid and I tapped his shoulder and introduced myself, "hello there, my name's Brian Nash, wanted to get to know some people, and well, not to be rude, but you do stand out in this crowd of err I can't tell if its a few hundred or a thousand," I say sticking my hand out, shaking it he chuckled to himself.
"Now what's so funny?" I say smirking.
"I was just chuckling about the size of the crowd comment," Jaune said," I'm Jaune arc, ya know my mother always said that strangers are just friends you haven't met yet," he said smiling.
"Yeah, she seems like a good person," I say to him.
"Yeah, she is, what do you think is gonna happen at initiation?" He asked.
"I would bet money that he's gonna chuck us off a cliff," I said to Jaune, I never said I wouldn't use my knowledge to my advantage, just to be clear...to the audience that definitely exists
I know you all exist, but for the sake of the story, let's all pretend in the future that I don't recognize that I'm in a self insert story.
