Weiss:
Judging from the sheer volume of missed calls I've been getting from my father, I think he found out I lied about what course I'm doing.
Rutabaga:
i thought u said itd take months? D: x_x
Weiss:
I assumed it would, but who knows how he found out.
But unless he wants to cause public uproar by showing up to Beacon to do nothing less than drag me out of lectures, I think he hasn't much choice but to deal with it, for now.
Rutabaga:
im guessing he doesnt like journalism much huh? xD
Weiss:
Quite.
Well, I think he's also angry that I lied to his face about doing business studies and financing.
I think he thought I didn't have it in me.
How little he knows.
Rutabaga:
heck yea!
do what makes u happy :DDDD
Weiss:
Besides, if I can use the wide variety of skills in journalism to help reveal his… 'unsavoury' businesses practises then the world will be better for it.
Rutabaga:
ur living out the like
movie style teenage rebellion rn!
cause the worst yang n i would ever do was like
run away to a friends house
but ur at a university miles away from home! goin against ur old man!
when does the book come out weiss! wheres the film! :DDDD
Weiss:
Rest assured I'll be the first to tell you when either of them do.
Though I'm more interested in your book, Ruby.
Not everyday someone manages to come to University two years early, is it?
Rutabaga:
!
well i mEan
.\\\\.
i got! super lucky!
beacons super flexible if ur prortfolio is good and mine is like
p good? i guess?

2 talking shit abt ur dad please
Weiss:
Fair.
Oh, I need to take a call from Winter.
Talk later?
Rutabaga:
sure!
say hi to winter 4 me!
Phone Transcript - 20th September, 11:17am
We:
Hi, Win.
Wi:
Weiss, as ever you're able to cause chaos when you're not even here. What did you do?
Also, hello.
We:
I might have applied to a different course at Beacon than I told our father.
He might've also been under the illusion I'd be studying business and not, say, journalism.
Wi:
Weiss.
We:
Winter.
I did warn you I wasn't letting him control my future anymore. I've had this planned for months now.
Wi:
And whilst I'm proud of you for throwing a wrench into his plans, you're in water so hot even I can't get you out of this.
I haven't seen him this angry in years, Weiss.
We:
I know, I know, but I've got a handle on it. He can't do anything without causing public spectacle, and I've spoken about this at length with Chancellor Ozpin. He knows father might take some steps-
Wi:
Was it the Chancellor who told our father?
We:
Pft, I doubt it. What would he have to gain?
Wi:
A favour from our father, money, prestige-
We:
Winter. It's fine. I'm happy where I am, and I've made the right choice. The Schnee Corporation has done so much untold damage that I want to start helping to make changes, even if it means dragging our name through the mud myself.
Wi:
… Alright, okay. I trust you. But I still expect you to get good grades, business or journalism or what have you.
We:
Like you can expect anything less of me. I'll call later, okay? Oh, also, my friend says hi.
Wi:
Uh, hi? Bye? Love you.
We:
Love you too, Win.

Weiss:
Well, that went better than expected.
Rutabaga:
whatd she say!
did u say hi?
Weiss:
Yes, I did. Also she was just warning me my father has tipped off the deep end of royally pissed, but that's nothing I didn't already know.
I think it'll be best that I don't go home for the Winter Solstice… or Summer's… or maybe I'll just avoid going home for the next three years?
Rutabaga:
that sounds reasonable xD
you can always come to my place! dadll love u!
Weiss:
Really?
Rutabaga:
i mean i know we havent known each other for v long
but ur rly cool! and chill. :D
and im glad we met on that forum cause then we didnt have to come here not knowing shit abt anyone haha
so! i think! my dad would rly like u!
and yang will 2 but she makes a lot of puns ull have to deal w/ that
Weiss:
I'll think about it.
Thank you. :)
Rutabaga:
