Weiss Reacts to Katawa Shoujo: Lilly's Route!

A/N: Welcome, one and all, to Weiss Reacts! Now, ladies and gents, you must be wondering where I've been all this time. The answer that, in addition to reality taking me down to do stuff, what with family, school, university, vacations and general laziness, my time's also taken up planning out the directions of all the Reactsverse fics currently in store, given that both Lucina Reacts and Weiss Reacts are due to finish in the next year- and for anyone wondering where the former is, I've already figured out what I'm going to do with it, I just need to go write it.

Anyway, let's get on with the best girl's route, and if anyone has any specific requests for any other of the girls' routes, just shout out in the comments!

Oh and by the way the Kamen Rider Gaim reaction is coming after we're done with Katawa Shoujo, just saying.

DISCLAIMER: RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth, otherwise Yang would have a brand-spanking new robot arm. (That trailer was disappointing in its absence.)

Katawa Shoujo belongs to 4Leaf Studios. Once again, for the younger readers, I must remind you that this IS an eroge and contains sexual scenes, so please don't play it unless you're over 18. Warning for spoilers.

All mentioned franchises and characters belong to their respective owners.

"…..alright, then," Weiss breathed in deeply. "…can I restart from where I managed to anger Lilly, then?"

Yang thought carefully. "…did you save at all?"
"…save? What do you mean save?!" The heiress stared at her in confusion. "You can save in this game?!"

"…so you mean you didn't save at all," the brawler remarked, groaning. "Weiss, you are absolutely hopeless."

Weiss looked away sheepishly. "I didn't know you could save! Are you kidding me?! I have to go read the whole thing again?!"

Ruby shrugged. "Save multiple copies, save often. You brought it on yourself."
"And you too, Ruby?!" The heiress cried in disbelief. She groaned, lowering her head in exasperation as she closed her eyes. "Some friends you two are. Fine then, let's get on with this. I can't believe I have to sit through all of it again. Fine, fine…..I'll put up with Misha and that bespectacled idiot. This route better be worth the trouble."
"Oh….it will be," Yang admitted, giggling. "It definitely, almost certainly will be."

Ruby whispered over to her. "Hey, what is so special about Lilly's route?"
"…just wait until they confess. Then you'll understand," the brawler whispered back quickly.

The reaper frowned, seeming dissatisfied with the answer, but shrugging. "….alright, I'll hold you to that."

Yang chuckled softly, before sighing and lowering her own head.

'Imagine this, me reduced to trolling Weiss with a visual novel. What happened to the good old days when I trolled her with maple syrup and feathers, I wonder,' the brawler thought to herself, groaning. 'Corrin and Homura get all the fun because people actually read their fics….'

Weiss cracked her knuckles, her resolve steeled to push through with the visual novel. "Alright, alright. Let's get on with it, then. At least I can just skip the annoying scenes and get to the good parts already."

"You're implying there are annoying scenes," the brawler warned her, giving her a dangerous look.

"Are you implying you want to put up with Kenji?" Weiss shot back. Yang looked away for a moment, mulling over the response. She sighed, conceding the exchange.

"…fair point. Carry on."

"…..alright, let's not yell at Hanako this time. Let's see if that achieves anything," Weiss scratched her head, thinking carefully as she pored over the scene in the library with the shy bookworm once more before electing to apologise for startling her instead of introducing herself in a boisterous manner. "…..I don't know how this will help, but perhaps being nice to the shy girl might actually get her to stay inside and not run."

"Ooh, so you think being nice will get you brownie points with Lilly?" Yang chuckled playfully. "…..well, I suppose that's one way to view it. If you want to get in with the big guys, go for their friends."

The heiress rolled her eyes. "Only you could ever possibly think of something as dumb as that. I just thought being subdued this time would get me a different result."

"Stuff works in mysterious ways and all," the brawler replied with a shrug. "Maybe it might help, maybe it might not. Who knows?"

"Don't get all myst-are you serious?!" Weiss sighed exasperatedly as the 'calm' approach still resulted in Hanako fleeing the library. "…well, I suppose I should've seen that coming."

"At least you didn't leap in like a complete fool and make yourself look stupid this time," Yang offered helpfully. The heiress' eyes narrowed, a clearly irritated gleam to them.

"…..thanks, Yang. As always, your confidence in my ability to read a situation is always appreciated."

The brawler smiled mischievously. "I'm always happy to serve!"

Weiss grumbled irritably. "You sound like some sort of waitress. Please don't, I'd rather have a Beowolf serve me food over you."

'Dust help me if Weiss ever finds out I work at a maid café,' Yang mentally remarked. 'She will never let me hear the end of it. And then probably call me and all our customers perverts.'

…..

"Hm, the refined soft-spoken gentlewoman or the annoyingly loud pinkette and the devious student council president…." Weiss put the barest second of thought, before coming to a clear conclusion that was totally not predetermined by her hatred for Misha. "I think this is a simple problem with a solution nobody should even bother thinking about."
Yang wagged her finger teasingly. "So remind me, why did you screw it up last time?"
"The choice was misleading!" The heiress snapped, glaring at Yang. "I didn't know it was going to make me throw Lilly under the bus to save my own skin! Bah, it doesn't matter now! I'll pick the obvious choice!"

She elected, this time around, to pick the option condemning Shizune and Misha for forcing work on the both of them. "Yes, she's being unreasonable! What do the two of them expect me to do, work on the festival as their slave monkey? I just got here!"

Ruby giggled, before cheering. "There's the Weiss we know and love."
"What's that supposed to mean?" The heiress inquired, scratching her head in confusion at her girlfriend's statement.
"….I actually don't know," the reaper shrugged, chuckling to herself. "I just thought that'd be a cool thing to say. You know, like in all of those movies."
Weiss sighed, rubbing her temples. "For all that I love you, you are an immense dunce. If you're going to quote a movie, at least do it right."
"Oooooh, is Weissy here a movie connoisseur now?" Yang teased. Weiss rolled her eyes once more.

"You're the kind of person who'd say this. Anyway, why are we even pursuing Lilly's route?"

"Because blondes are awesome and this is totally an unbiased opinion," the brawler answered while she ran a brush through her long golden hair, leaving it fashionably messed up.

Weiss sighed, before listening to the last line of the scene. "Sweetest smile you've seen all that week? Oh, they're laying it on thick, aren't they?"

Yang shrugged casually. "Well, this is on the way to Lilly's route. What, did you expect him to start drooling over Hanako instead?"

…..

"…..I will never understand how a blind person runs a stall," Weiss mused. "…maybe it's hard for me to understand, but I don't see how."

Yang shrugged. "I dunno, I'd suppose the person standing in front of you waving coins would be a little obvious, even to a blind person."

"I suppose that would be rather useful…." The heiress conceded. "It still boggles me how the disabled can adapt so readily."

"Never heard of a blind Hunter before? They're not unheard of, what with Grimm loving to go for the eyes and people's Auras being weird….."

Ruby tilted her head. "I wonder how you'd fight while blind…..maybe it'd be like that old movie where that guy was a masseuse and pretended to be helpless."

"…puffing your cheeks out, really?" Weiss' eyes narrowed at the screen. "That is behaviour unbefitting of a lady!"

"And you're one to talk," Yang chimed in teasingly. "You're even less of a lady than Lilly is."

The heiress looked mortified. "Be quiet! I-I am the very model of a modern Atlesian socialite! And….oh Dust. She's just like you. No wonder you like Lilly so much. Birds of a feather…."
"Heh. Lilly and I have a…..few differences, especially where I'm the one who's superior," the brawler remarked mischievously, looking down at her own chest before shaking her head. "I'm the more fun one."

Ruby giggled, smiling. "It's cute how they went to find Hanako and just ate together like friends. It's nice to see they didn't just jam the ship down our throats."
"That's the boring way," Yang grumbled under her breath. Weiss rolled her eyes.

"…..well, now we've done it. We've really started Lilly's route. Please tell me she doesn't get any more like Yang or I may just hit something."

The brawler merely chuckled enigmatically, shaking her head. "Oh, Weiss, if only you knew…."

"Dust help me."

"I see Akira is almost certainly the kind of big sister you endeavour to be," Weiss remarked darkly as the older Satou sibling arrived with wine at Hanako's birthday. Yang gave her a thumbs up.

"You can count on me to give the party a little….Yang for its buck."

"…..that was a terrible pun. Please, never pun again."

"Yeah, that was bad," the brawler uttered, shuddering. "I still don't know where people get the idea I make tons of puns…."

Ruby rubbed her chin. "You know, I think most boys would kill to be where Hisao is, right now."

"Not like bunking with different genders is anything special here, Ruby," Weiss reminded her carefully. "…..still, it's admittedly rather cute, the relationship between these three."

"Already working on the yuri fics," the brawler remarked coyly. Weiss grumbled.

"Can't two girls be close without you jumping on it and immediately assuming they're lesbians?!"
"Nonsense! Everyone knows you can't be friends with someone without wanting to upgrade it romantically," Yang replied, clearly mocking Weiss. "It's, like, a rule of everything ever."

The heiress sighed exasperatedly. "Of course. It's always shipping with you. And Dust forbid this ever happen to us. We were bad enough the drinks weren't alcoholic, what good will we be when they are?!"

Yang rolled her eyes. "Ugh. Of course, you'd think like that. You're such a spoilsport."

"I'm invested in keeping ourselves out of your antics, thank you very much," Weiss chided her irritably, sighing. "I, for one, prefer being sober. Especially where you're involved."

…..

"These two have no respect for the sanctity of sleeping," Weiss muttered irritably at the screen as Hisao received a rude awakening, courtesy of the two student council members who had been pestering him since the beginning of the game. Yang raised an eyebrow.

"You're supporting sleeping in class?"
"I'm supporting not being awoken by an insane girl and the lovechild of that Suzumiya girl and that Reflet woman, I'll pass."

Ruby tilted her head. "Oh, oh! What's going on now?"

"…..and now I'm going for grocery shopping. Again." Weiss sighed. "Well, this is boring. Am I allowed to want to trade lives with him?"

Yang pouted. "Oh, come on. We're not that bad, right?"
"You don't want the answer to that question, Xiao Long," the heiress retorted bluntly. She then closed her eyes. "Hisao, just kiss her already. You're staring at her like a piece of meat!"

"Why don't you ever say my face looks like porcelain?" Ruby complained, pouting. "Don't you find me pretty?"

Weiss stared at her, blushing. "D-don't say things like that!"
"Yeah, Weiss is the porcelain-faced girl here, not you."
"Is that supposed to be an insult? I am light-skinned! I don't tan easily!" Weiss grumbled, before coming to the first choice she found. "…..tell the truth? Of course! Tch, why wouldn't I? Not like Lilly's going to blackmail me or anything."

Yang rolled her eyes dismissively. "I think you need to learn to hold back, not tell the truth…."

"I seem to be the only person who wants to tell the truth around here!"

…..

Weiss closed her eyes, sighing. "…and now neither Hisao nor Hanako can actually live without Lilly around. Well, I should've seen that coming. Not that I don't know how that feels; I think this dorm would die if I wasn't here."

"Please, I think it'd be less of a tyranny around here," Yang scoffed.

"You would do something perverted and get yourself kicked out of Beacon, Blake would blow up the school with a giant robot and Ruby would be entirely powerless to stop either of you. I doubt your ability to survive without me."

Ruby pouted, puffing out her cheeks. "Hey! I can totally handle Yang and Blake without you! I'm the leader of the team, after all!"
"Then explain why their antics run rampant and I'm the only sane woman in the whole academy?"

"I'm doing what you always pester me about doing and studying!" The reaper protested, pouting. "You always make me study!"

Weiss sighed, closing her eyes. "I suppose, this time, I'll concede defeat. And….oh. A teenage boy, cooped up in the countryside with two attractive girls his age. That ought to end well."

Yang raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Weiss, is this…..perversion I sense?"

"Don't lie! You were thinking the same thing!" The heiress snapped in response. The brawler wagged her finger, shaking her head.

"Nuh-uh. I was just thinking how cute it'd be if Hisao were to go up and confess his feelings just like that, you know?"
"You couldn't lie more blatantly if you tried."
"I'm not the one who brought up perverted intentions."

Ruby sighed, closing her eyes. "You two never stop arguing. It's like she's your girlfriend, Weiss."
"If that were true, I think I'd rather die," the heiress replied, shuddering.

…

"…..well, finally," Weiss sighed in exasperation. "Took them long enough to confess to each other. That was admittedly adorable, but a long time coming."

Yang raised an eyebrow. "Weiss Schnee, liking something I recommended to her? Stop the presses!"

"You've already used that joke!"

"If the shoe fits, dear. If the shoe fits."

Ruby giggled. "It was a pretty adorable confession…..w-wait a second. What's going on?"
"Wait? What is Lilly asking?" Weiss scratched her head. "Why is she so nervous?"

The brawler shrugged. "I dunno. Maybe she wants to go have dinner or-"

"LILLY WHERE ARE YOUR CLOTHES AND WHY ARE YOU NAKED" The heiress shrieked in horror, staring at the screen in shock as a rather interesting and indecent scene played out. "T-this…..s-she's barely just confessed to him! Now they're…what?!"
Yang was barely suppressing laughter, covering her mouth. "Ooh. Lilly's a kinky girl. Yang like."

"No! This was supposed to be a pure, innocent story!" Weiss cried in protest, before shoving her hands onto Ruby's eyes, keeping them shut. "D-don't look at this! It's indecent and perverted!"
"Huh? What? Weiss! Let me go!" The reaper protested. "G-get off of me!"
"This is your doing, Yang! Your doing! That's it, I quit!" Weiss snapped. "You promised this was an innocent romance story, not smut!"

"It is! I swear!" The brawler cried, laughing. "J-just keep playing! You'll love the ending!"

Weiss growled angrily, sounding like a wounded animal. "…..give me one reason why I should finish this novel. One."

"Just finish the novel, alright?" Yang grinned. "You'll love the ending."

The heiress shook her head, sighing and closing her eyes. "Oh….I doubt a game like this could possibly-"

…..

Weiss wiped a tear from her eye as the ending played out in front of her. "…..so, Lilly did come back in the end. After all that pain…."
"Are you seriously crying over this?" Yang giggled at her teammate, who blushed profusely and glared back at her.

"I-I am not crying! My eyes are irritated from staring at a computer screen for two hours straight!"

Ruby sniffled. "Just….the way he ran to catch up to her…."

"Q-quit that, Ruby! Quit it!" The heiress cried, sniffling herself. "D-don't make me cry, you dolts! It's not funny! S-stupid! It's just a novel! Y-you're not supposed to cry about it!"

Needless to say, there was quite a bit of crying involved.

A/N: Well, I apologise for that rather rushed ending, but, well, I legitimately cried a little at watching the ending to the Lilly route and couldn't write about it too long. Also, I'm on vacation, so that was a bit of an issue. I'll try to make up for it, I promise.

So, next chapter, Kamen Rider Gaim! So, I hope you enjoyed that, leave your ideas, comments, criticisms, suggestions, thoughts and reviews, and I hope you have a GREAT day! Until next time!
