Weiss Reacts to Accel World, Part 1!

A/N: Welcome, one and all, to Weiss Reacts! Yes, we aren't done yet! In fact, we've got a ton more stories to tell and stuff! However, a particular guest reviewer, despite his review being...to be frank, almost incomprehensible, does bring up a good point; when will Weiss Reacts end! Have no fear, haters and people getting bored of this, for this story has a planned end already. There will, indeed, be a Volume 3 and the final instalment of the series. So, if you want something featured, you'd best get it done now or during Volume 3 as I will probably not do any other volumes afterwards.

And yes, there will be a crossover with Lucina Reacts in the works, so time to hype it up, lads!

However, the end of Volume 3 is a long, long way away, and we haven't even finished Volume 1. Let's get this show on the road!

DISCLAIMER: RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth, otherwise there would be more fanservicey moments in the series (so we can fuel your Rule 34 fantasies~)

Accel World belongs to Reki Kawahara. (And no, I will not do SAO, for personal reasons.) Warning for spoilers.

"Well, first it's too cold, and now it's too blasted hot." Weiss growled, irritated at the strange weather their country was going through.

After the eventful trip to some hot springs the team had taken that had ended with Velvet and Pyrrha attempting to kidnap Weiss and Jaune- and Norn fortunately putting a stop to it- they had collectively elected not to go anywhere else and just stay at Beacon. Yang had mentally punched herself for not having noticed this ("Damn it! The one time I decide NOT to be a pervert, someone else does instead!") ,while Blake patted herself on the back for having such an awesome robot maid.

Of course, that decision had been ill-thought out when the very week after, a heat wave overtook Vale and now it was too hot to go outside. Too hot, in fact, that most of the student body were advised to stay inside and avoid the heat, for fear of possible cases of heatstroke and other unpleasant illnesses. So, team RWBY were currently confined to their dorm, with almost every window and door open and most of the- as expected, SchneeTronic brand- fans they could find on full blast towards them.

Most of the girls were splayed out on their beds, slick with sweat, sighing deeply at the heat. Yang turned over, patting her head with a wet towel to cool herself down.

"Too hot to do anything..." The brawler whined. "Too hot...I can't even lampshade how weird that last sentence sounded..."

"It's like this weather's intended to put us into situations like this." Weiss complained. Ruby, on the bunk above her, whimpered, rolling over to face down towards her girlfriend.

"Weeeiiiisss, you have ice powers! Can't you make it colder?"

"Ruby, my power is with glyphs, not ice. That would be my sister who can make it colder, and Dust knows where she is right now." The heiress remarked. "What I'd give to be in her room right now, it's probably colder in there..."

Blake was busy fanning herself with a folded up piece of blueprint paper, groaning. "And of course I can't even go out to work on my projects."
Weiss raised an eyebrow. "Oh? I'd assume the great and manly Blake Belladonna could stand the heat."
"I would, but Norn demanded I stay inside. For my own health." The catgirl sighed. "It's not like I'll die from heatstroke from a little sun, but I stayed in for her sake. That and I wouldn't want to be dragged back inside by a robot maid a head smaller than me.

That would just be unmanly."

Ruby lazily looked over to Yang. "Can we do something? I need to be distracted from how hot it is..."

"I would, but I don't even wanna get out of bed..." The brawler complained. The reaper responded by pouting, staring at her sister pleadingly.

"Pleaaaaase?"

"...ugh, fiiiineeee." Yang sighed, rolling out of bed ungracefully and landing on the floor with a yelp. She rubbed her rump softly, wincing. "Ow..."

"Be...careful, you idiot..." Weiss raised a finger limply, before putting it down. "I don't even have the energy to reprimand you. Confound this heat..."

"I know a good beach we could've gone to, but it's too far away and I got told a friend of mine reserved it..." Yang stated.

"You can afford a private beach?"
"Hey, our family's not that poor, Weiss...but, since we can't use that one and the other one's half a day away, I think we should see what we can watch."
Blake perked up slightly, looking down at them. "We could watch Accel World."
"That anime you guys wanted me to watch? Please tell me it's not like that accursed Madoka Magica or whatever you showed us, Xiao Long." The heiress warned. "Dust knows, I still think that Homura girl suffered too much."

Yang finally wrenched herself off of the floor, pulling down her shirt over her exposed stomach. "No, no, it doesn't lie to you. Much. You'll see what we're talking about. We should totally watch it.

Oh, hang on."

She turned to the catgirl. "Blaaaaaakey, can you go out and grab, like, five hundred cans of Blue Cow or whatever you can find?"
"Why me?"

"I'm too lazy and I'm setting up the computer so we can watch it. Come on, pleaaaaase?"

The catgirl groaned. "Fine, but Yang, you owe me for this."
Ruby whistled. "Like Yang would say, whipped."
"Shut it, Ruby. Yang's not my girlfriend." Blake sputtered out, clambering down from her bed. Yang frowned.

"Awwww. And I thought we made a good couple~"
The catgirl blushed profusely, before hiding her cheeks with her hands, glaring at her. "S-shut up! Gggh...h-how can you be like this in this weather..."

Weiss rolled her eyes. "It seems no matter what the circumstances, Yang just can't help being a pervert. And I thought you'd cut down on it."
"I said I'd cut down on the antics, Weiss! Different thing! Besides, it's not fair if you get to be tsundere and Blake gets to be manly, but I don't get to be flirty! It's a rule of the world! Y'know, like Lucina being adorkable! Or Jaune being a butt monkey!"
"Jaune's sister never struck me as adorable."
"Not what I meant. And wrong person. Gah, let's just get this going before I get too hot to set this up..."

Minutes later...

With much groaning, moving of fans and wiping of sweat, team RWBY had finally gathered- on separate beanbags, for though Ruby had attempted to glomp Weiss to cool herself down, Weiss had forced her to sit on a different chair- to watch the anime.

Cans of rather generically-branded SchneeWasser soda were stacked beside each beanbag for convenience of drinking, and most of the fans were pointed towards their faces to keep them cool. Weiss looked over to Yang. "Can we start already? I'm already regretting my decision to wrench myself out of bed to do this stupid thing..."
"Alright, alright, quit being so impatient." The brawler complained. "It's not like we're suffering from the heat, either..."
Ruby moaned. "It's too hot...can we turn the fans up?"
"We've already got them at maximum blast. Any higher and we might short the power out in the dorm or something." Blake reminded her. "Just take a drink, it'll cool you down."

Weiss grasped the sides of her beanbag. "Alright, let's see what you got, Xiao Long."

Episode 1

"...that rotund boy is...the protagonist?" Weiss raised an eyebrow, curious. Yang smiled brightly.

"Haruyuki Arita, yep. Surprised, huh?"
"I've seen protagonists with the faces of thugs and scars, but...I'll have to admit, seeing one who looks quite...rotund, yes, that's the polite word...that's curious."

"He's adorable. If only he existed in the real world so I could pick him up and hug him tight~"

Weiss gagged. "Even him?! Does your depravity know no bounds?!"
"Sheesh, I'm not hitting on him, I'm saying I'd give the guy a hug! He deserves it. You'll see."

Ruby frowned as Haru was surrounded by students demanding their food from him. "I haven't seen this. Does he get bullied by those guys a lot?"

"Not for too long."

Weiss clenched her fist. "I see. Like Team CRDL used to be."

"...and now you know why he deserves hugs." The brawler declared triumphantly. "He's just so cuddly!"

"For once, I find I agree with you." The heiress muttered. "How dare those fools...I can see why he prefers the virtual world."
"I like this guy because he reminds me of Simon. Whiny moron, ends up being pretty badass." Blake remarked.

Weiss stared at her. "Of course he'd be whiny, why wouldn't-"
"When I say whiny, I mean Shinji Ikari-level whiny. Of course, that's a decade-old reference, so you won't get it, but believe me when I say he's...pretty whiny at times."
The heiress' eyes narrowed. "I don't get the references you make that are less than a year old, Belladonna."

Ruby frowned. "Oh come on! Chiyu was only trying to help! No need to just shrug her off like that!"

"...and now I can see what you mean." The heiress grumbled, facepalming. "He reminds me of Jaune already. And not in a good way."
"Eh, it gets better. Pretty quickly, too." Yang pointed out. "Although those sandwiches he just threw away look pretty nice...damn it, Haru, don't you know starving kids could have those?!"
"You mean you could have those. And damned moron, you made her cry!" Weiss snapped. "You really are a coward...ggh..."

Yang chuckled. "There goes your sympathetic side."

"AND NOW YOU'RE WHINING BECAUSE SOMEONE'S BETTER THAN YOU?!" The heiress yelled. "YOU ARE SERIOUSLY GOING TO IRRITATE ME"

Blake flinched. "Quit yelling! Good Dust."

"...and now, the main girl comes on. I could totally rock Kuroyukihime's costume." Yang remarked, licking her lips. Weiss cringed.

"Your depravity truly knows no limits."

"Like I said, I promised to stop my antics or limit those. I never said I'd stop being a flirt."

Blake facepalmed, shaking her head. "One of these days, that's going to bite you in the backside."

"I've had enough things bite me in the backside, thanks very much." The brawler remarked.

Weiss continued watching the anime. "Also, those moronic bullies are back...and what are you doing, you crazy lady?! Letting him punch h-okay, well, now there's a time stop function. Excellent. Well.

Acceleration of brain waves...well, the name is apt. And you are one sneaky, sneaky girl..." Weiss rubbed her chin. "Excellent plan, getting him caught by the cameras..."

Yang nodded. "Well, it is pretty smart."

"...what kind of screwed up dream is this?! This looks like something out of that Persona game you love playing!" Weiss snapped. "All those masked weirdoes...and what kind of symbolic dream is tha-wait, wait, what's going on! Is he...oh, wonderful , the moron ignored his advice and linked to the internet and now he's about to fight."

The heiress sighed. "Of course, he's the protagonist. He'll probably win with ease."
Yang held up a finger. "Wait patiently and see."

Episode 2

"...so he was defeated?!" Weiss stared in disbelief. "My Dust, the protagonist lost their first fight. This anime really is unique..."

Yang crossed her arms triumphantly. "Why do you think I like this anime so much? It does things most anime don't. I say most, of course- there's probably a couple of times the protagonist loses their first fight and so on, but this is one of the few we know of..."

"...and what do you know, she did say so..." Ruby sighed. "Well, still, it's worth it."

Weiss took a sip of her drink. "So it's a fighting game...that's also an online game...that's also based around a points system. Alright. Well."
"The author isn't the best at writing video games properly." Yang admitted. "I won't mince words here, and Elf-sama is free to yell at me for disagreeing with him over this."

Blake shrugged. "Still, better than his last well-known attempt."

"Why are we taking potshots at that? The fans will kill us!"
Weiss cleared her throat. "Would you two shut up? I'm trying to watch this! I haven't got any idea what you're both talking about anyway!"

Yang frowned. "Right, right."

"And now I know why you like Kuroyukihime so much. The woman's a shameless pervert." Weiss grumbled.

Yang rolled her eyes. "Oh, she only said he's her boyfriend! It's not like she said they had se-"

"Yang!" The heiress declared.

"Oh, right, this is a T-rated fic. Not allowed to say that." The brawler rolled her eyes. "Although why they get to say 'fuck' all the time in the other fic-ow! Weiss!"

"Quit swearing!" Weiss snapped, rubbing her hand, having hit the brawler.

Ruby cheered. "Rematch! Rematch!"

"Hopefully, he wins this time. As much as I was surprised he was beaten, I'd rather he actually wins this time." Weiss admitted. "Dust knows the boy needs it...

...Hm. Genius. Use the motorcycle against him and smack him off of it, making him powerless. Seems that pervert woman's brains rubbed off on him."

Yang groaned. "You're just going to call Kuroyukihime 'pervert woman' from now on, aren't you?"
"The way she dresses and acts around that boy, she already reminds me of you around Blake."
"D-don't even bring me into this!" The catgirl cried, ashamed.

Episode 3

Weiss growled. "I swear. And now you say you're dating him to his best friend? At least take the boy out to dinner first!"

"You just sound like Glynda now." Yang remarked wistfully.

"Well, she can hardly call it a date if she doesn't even go out with him!"

"...what kind of stupid game is that?" Ruby complained at Kuroyukihime's explanation of the game the protagonists played. "Really, a game that uninstalls itself if you lose? Permanently? Sounds like that one Mac game that deleted your files if you shot the enemies and itself if you got destroyed..."

Weiss looked over at Yang. "I see what you mean about not knowing how to write games properly...and they took it seriously enough to have a treaty. And she betrayed someone by killing one of the other Kings, of which she's one of them?

Good Dust, this is dark. For a video game anime."

Ruby tilted her head. "Huh. I bet this Cyan Pile guy's one of the main characters. Chiyu, maybe?"
"They suspect her, but even I didn't believe it." The brawler admitted. "I mean, she IS a main character, but..."
Weiss shook her head. "I bet it's that Taku guy who's dating her. He seems too important not to be involved in these shenan-HARU WHAT ARE YOU DOING GOOD DUST"

"He's just investigating to find out if she's Cyan Pile-"
"HE DIDN'T HAVE TO GET SO CLOSE TO HER WHAT IS HE A PERVERT"

Blake sighed. "This is going to keep happening, isn't it."

"...a backdoor program? What, someone's stalking her?" Ruby inquired. "That's creepy. And weird."
"Like I said, I suspect that Taku guy. It's always those types of characters, the unassuming-looking guys in anime who happen to be absolute jerks as boyfriends for some reason." The heiress huffed. "If only people realised how things work in real life..."

Episode 4

"PERVERT DISGUSTING PERVERT WHAT ARE YOU DOING" Weiss shrieked, pointing at the rather interesting dream Haru was having on screen. "HOW DARE YOU"

Yang looked jealous. "I kinda want to join in-"
"OH YOU ARE GOING TO BURN IN HELL FOR HAVING THAT DREAM YOU PERVERT" The heiress roared.

The brawler shrugged in response. "Eh, if I was surrounded by hot girls, I'd have those kinda dreams too. Just saying, but having the school idol fall for you is pretty awesome. Rubes would know all about that."
The reaper giggled, blushing slightly. "Mhm~"

"...and now she's jealous because he used a tiny cable? What, is that some sort of metaphor for kissing?" The heiress sighed. "And I thought I got away from these kinds of perverted anime...why does he like him so much anyway?"

"He's cute as a button, a nice guy and teasing him is pretty fun?" Yang pointed out. "The way I see it, the only reason people bully him so much is that he's a wimp.

It's like why people like Jaune. Only Jaune isn't all that cute, he's handsome."

"No way that pervert woman can be jealous when she spends all her time hitting on you?" Weiss raised an eyebrow. "Come on, Haru, you're being thrown a bone here so to speak, take it...

...and you call yourself a pawn?! Good Dust, your self-esteem really is shot. She's outright telling you she loves you and you're a complete-GAH!"

The heiress breathed heavily, trying to restrain her urge to punch faces in. "...yes, Kuroyukihime, slap that idiot. He's blind. Completely blind!"

'...right, I forgot, he's about as dense as Robin and Natsuru combined.' Yang recalled, shaking her head.

"...What kind of jerk crashes a car into someone for revenge?!" Ruby cried. "What?! And Kuroyukihime, no! What?!"
Weiss winced. "...it's too early, so I know she can't be dead yet, but taking a car to the side has to hurt, especially without Aura. Even with Aura, it'd hurt...

...and that moron better believe she loves him or I will personally reach through that screen and beat it into him. She took a car for him, he'd better believe it!"

Yang chuckled. "Oooh, getting into it, are we?"
"I just hate it when the protagonist is too dense to realise their feelings for their love interests." The heiress remarked. "It's stupid."

Blake raised an eyebrow curiously. Weiss glared at her.

"What are you giving me that look for?!"

"...I knew it. I knew that Taku guy was behind it." The heiress declared. "I know things! I can predict them! See? I'm not genre blind!"

Yang sighed. "We've never said you weren't..."

Episode 5

"He may be your friend, but you'd better kick his backside before he beats you!" Weiss roared as Haru challenged Taku to a battle. "Come on, fight-oh, right...your Duel Avatar, or whatever, is weak...great."

"In hindsight, he should've thought that part of his plan through before trying it." Blake commented. "If this guy thought he could take a Queen- one of the best players- on by himself..."

"...and I knew he'd be a jealous scumbag." The heiress seethed. "Why are they always like this?"

Yang shrugged. "Drama. It's up there with 'killing the cute little sister figure' and 'tragic miscommunication'."

Ruby cheered. "Oh! Oh, we're getting to the good part! He's ended up next to her sleeping body!"
"He'll likely get some sort of-right, yep, he got boosted and wait, he can fly?" The heiress raised an eyebrow. "Now that's ...not a surprise, but still, that's a shocker. How's he supposed to beat him still?"

The brawler shrugged. "By doing that."

Weiss rubbed her chin thoughtfully. "...that's a bit of an unfair advantage, being able to carry your opponents and bash them into the ground from that high...but, then, that makes up for him being weaker than rice paper.

Wait...you just forgave that scumbag?! That...gggh...he'd better redeem himself for doing that, or someone's getting executed for letting this be a thing." The heiress sat back down, shaking her head at the revelation.

Yang took a sip of her drink. "Well, admittedly, having low self-esteem, thinking your girlfriend doesn't love you and then having this magical game that allows you to have better reflexes than Batman given to you might screw you up mentally, but he's been friends with him longer than that game's existed, so I doubt they'll be enemies long."

"...well, at least she's fine." Ruby sighed in relief. "Kury...bah, her name's too long! Why is it too long?! Why can't she use a name like Tohru or Homura or something?!"

Episode 6

"...well, I didn't expect Chiyu to take the whole thing well, given that everyone seems to be taking this blasted game too seriously, but..." Weiss sighed, before turning to Yang. "I don't understand the level up system in this game. So he can use his points to upgrade and loses out on those time-stop or whatever abilities?"
Yang shrugged. "Pretty much. I think."

"...and you're not taking the points? Haru, you've played video games for too long to not take the help! What are you, some sort of heroic warrior or something?!" The heiress snapped.

Ruby frowned. "Hey, it's a gamer thing. You wouldn't understand."
"Well, you do suck at games, no wonder you wouldn't." Yang remarked. Weiss glared at her for the umpteenth time.

"Would you shut up about me?! This is about that moron not taking help when it's handed to him on a silver platter! Grah!

And he's willing to give his real life identity and risk himself to get a bodyguard to help him get points, but not your friend-Haru, you may be a sympathetic moron, but sometimes, I want to punch you as much as I want to punch Jaune." Weiss muttered, rubbing her temples.

The brawler shrugged. "It's a gamer thing. Aaaaand this is a hilarious part..."
Ruby giggled. "Oh, he just smacked right into the bodyguard he hired? And she's acting all Yuki-like too. Wow. I like her already."

"...I don't. She sounds like she's running some sort of extortion thing, with having to pay for it with money and your real life identity..."

Yang clapped. "And this is one of my favourite parts."
"What the...Kuroyukihime, why did you just challenge him to a fight?!" Weiss stared at the screen as the aforementioned girl challenged Taku to a duel.

"And that...will have to be answered next episode, dearies." Yang remarked, smirking.

To be continued...

A/N: Next chapter, the other 18 or so episodes of Accel World. I confess, I'm trying to make it clearer what I'm talking about, as I write these chapters as commentary on the actual episodes rather than description, so it helps if you watch while you read these. Kinda like RiffTrax, only free, crappier and far less well-written.

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