Chapter 54 - Doing Nothing

"...soooo, why aren't you doing anything?"
"Cinder, what can I do? Everyone's already off to the trial or hearing or whatever it's called. I'm not a Faunus ex-miner or an emotionally abused wife filing for divorce and company takeover. I don't really have anything else to contribute at this point."
"So what? Can't you find something better to do than laze around in a hotel room?"
Rory raised his head to look at Cinder, who was lying facedown on the bed next to him.
"Not really, no."
"Hey, what about that one girl you wanted to meet? The young Schnee."
"Weiss? I mean, I guess we could visit her. They should be doing nothing too."
"They?"
"She has a brother. Name's Whiney or something like that. I think the two of them are being watched by their family butler. I dunno, I'll ask them."
Rory picked up his scroll and gave a call to the number Willow gave him. It took a while for Klein to pick up, and Rory started a nice conversation with him.
"Uh-huh. Yup. Oh, they're bored too? You want to— well, I don't want to insist. Oh? Oh! Oh, sure. We can be there in an hour."
Rory hung up and turned to Cinder.
"So, I'ma go and meet with them. Wanna come?"
"Bitchin."
