Weiss Reacts to Accel World, Part 2!

A/N: Welcome, one and all, to Weiss Reacts! Wow, well, I'm surprised people still come back to read this after such a long time of me not updating or providing crappy updates. So, not much to say here except thanks guys, for a year or so of your patronage, and you're all awesome, and we hope that you guys stay awesome until the very end! Also, after this chapter is put up, I will be putting up a poll for you guys to vote which one of these you guys want featured; Attack on Titan, Code Geass, or a random selection from my archive of good fanfics, the FNDM's Finest.

Now that we've gotten that out of the way, let's get this chapter out of the way!
DISCLAIMER: RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth, otherwise there'd be a nice omake of the characters acting as Animated Actors (and I totally want to use that idea for after Weiss Reacts ends).

Accel World belongs to Reki Kawahara. Warning for spoilers.

All mentioned franchises and characters belong to their respective owners.

Episode 7

Weiss rubbed her chin. "...so he quit that club because of his period as a jerk. Wonderful. He's definitely doing more to atone than any other such fool I've seen."

Yang smirked. "You really are a genius about these kinds of stories now."
"It's come from four years of dealing with you." The heiress remarked. "I've had you spoil more stories and shows than any person should watch in their free time."

"Awww. I love you too~"

"...well, clichés will be clichés, and it seems he ends up being an accidental pervert." Ruby commented, sighing. "Oh well, at least it was nice while it lasted..."

Blake rubbed her chin. "You know, I like this series, but the dialogue can be pretty...awkward sometimes. I'd call it narmy, if that wouldn't be narmy either."

"...this Aqua Current person really does remind me of Yuki..." Yang mused. "...except more trolly. Like seriously, leaving him to die and then coming to save him at the last second?"

Weiss winced. "Why must they always do that? Trickster mentors, seriously..."
The brawler waved her off, sipping her own drink. "Please, you don't get to whine until you've trained under Lie Ren for two months. Good Dust, he's a good teacher-"
"Well, that's what you get for training under the Antic Grandmaster, or whatever you people call him." The heiress snapped back. "I still don't understand how Ozpin hasn't put a stop to this Antic Order nonsense..."

"Atonement it is...if only he wasn't so stupid about going for it..." Weiss muttered, rubbing her temples. "Deleting that blasted game isn't going to help you atone for it. Actually doing something to make up for being a jerk boyfriend will."

Ruby frowned. "Pure water is a terrible conductor? Someone tell the guys at Game Freak that, please."

"Shush, Ruby." Her sister warned. "This isn't the time for those kinds of references."
Blake rolled her eyes. "You make worse references every day. It's like the fourth wall doesn't exist to you."
"Pfft. Please, I just want to follow in the path of the legendary Merc with a Mouth himself. If only he'd show up and grace us with his beloved presence!" Yang pleaded. "I mean, the fans would love it..."

Weiss rolled her eyes. "You're making up excuses. And who's this Merc with a Mouth anyway? I haven't a clue."
"Deadpool. You mustn't go on the Dustnet often." Blake remarked.

"He's, like, one of the legends of the Antic Order!" Yang exclaimed, squeeing happily. "Only the likes of O-Zelretch-sama and Reflet can come CLOSE to his antics. Of course, Zelretch DID drop a moon on someone, so..."

Weiss pinched the bridge of her nose. "If I knew even a little of what you said, I'd smack you. Although if this Deadpool personality is idolised by the Antic Order, he can't be good news at all...

...and what do you know, this Taku person DOES transfer to their school after that peptalk. As perverted as this...pervert woman is, her name is far too ridiculously long for me to say quickly, she has quite excellent charisma." The heiress admitted.

"So you do like Kuroyukihime!"

"...she's still a damned pervert, so no, I don't."
"Just admit it~"
"I'm not being...whatever you call it, tsundere or whatever. I just don't like her." Weiss stated coldly.

Episode 8

Weiss raised an eyebrow. "...a cute cousin character who comes out of complete nowhere into the protagonist's life and calls him brother? This sounds far too much like those weird imouto heroine light novels you hate, Yang."
"...ohoho, I see what he did there. My little sister...ggh. This sickens me." The brawler seethed. "Don't you dare compare dear Yuni-I mean Tomoko to those perverted things. What kind of a weirdo lusts after his little sister, anyway?"
"Corrin might want to have a word with you on that." Blake remarked, looking up from her drink.

"If he dares touch any of those adorable cinnamon buns, heads will roll and I will personally march over there and-"

Weiss cleared her throat violently. "Ahem! Watching something!"

Ruby frowned, taking a sip of her drink. "Tomoko seems far too nice to be real. I think it's probably going to subvert that."
"This anime has yet to disappoint me in subverting the usual tropes. It had better achieve this one, too. And...damned pervert! Can you not fawn over...gggh." The heiress shuddered. "...well, at least I was right, and Haru's far savvier than the usual protagonist...and she's the queen of the Red Legion? And a psychotic foulmouth? And she beats him, too? With a giant...fortress thing with anti-aircraft missiles?

That was a twist. Wait, why does she have those? Isn't Haru's thing the only one that can fly?"

Yang held up a finger. "There's another one...technically. You'll see it when we get to that part later."

Blake whistled. "I've been trying to work on replicating the Red Queen's Enhanced Armament for ages, actually. I mean, it's the second-closest Accel World gets to humongous mecha."

"Second?" Weiss raised an eyebrow curiously. "Oh please don't tell me there's worse-Haru, what are you doing? Are you going to kiss your mentor's hand or...okay, no, just make a speech about her mattering more to you than anyone.

And you wonder why she's in love with you at all. Damned moron."

Episode 9

Weiss tilted her head. "Hmph. So her name is Yuniko, hm? Interesting."

"How?" Yang inquired, tilting her head.

"It just is. Now shush." The heiress held up her finger. "I'm trying to watch this."

"...you know, I never understood how she was planning on borrowing Haru's wings." Blake stated, as the aforementioned Red Queen requested the use of the protagonist's wings. "If I recall, those wings are locked to a character, barring some serious shenanigans."

"...the Armour of Catastrophe. Blake, don't you dare get any ideas." The heiress warned her.

"An armour that possesses people and gets stronger? Nah, I'll pass." The catgirl waved her hand. "I'm interested in giant mecha, not crazy armour that does bad things to people."

Ruby held up a finger. "You know, she could just pick her up and carry her. She's a tiny person, even in the Accelerated World."

"I think she might have done that, actually." The catgirl nodded in agreement. "We'll see."

"...what. WHAT?!" The heiress twitched. "...and those two are going to stay the night? Why are all love interests always so clingy?! Gggh...

HARU YOU PERVERT HOW DARE YOU IMAGINE THEM BOTH NAKED ARE YOU YANG OR SOMETHING"

"I'd be offended, but I'm just me. I can't help it." The brawler shrugged, admitting her perversion. "It runs in the family. We Xiao Longs are loving people."

Episode 10

"Chiyu wants to join them in Brain Burst." Weiss rubbed her chin. "I don't see anything possibly coming from this. And yes, that was sarcastic."

Yang rolled her eyes. "As if sarcasm from the great Weiss Schnee was ever unexpected."

"Touché." The heiress retorted. "Alright, your point is made."

"Huh...so who gave Kurokimilimy her copy?" Ruby inquired, tilting her head. "If they betrayed her that badly, to the point she can't forgive them...they must've been close. Like a sister or something."

Weiss stared at her girlfriend. "Seriously? Her name isn't that hard to pronounce, just ridiculously long-winded."
"It's too hot for me to think straight!" The reaper whined. "You think straight for me, Weiss..."
Weiss stared at her incredulously. "...Ruby, I love you very much, and I probably wouldn't be able to live without you, but that is the single stupidest thing I've ever heard you say. And I've lived with you for four years and helped you through more pieces of homework than Yang has ever passed."

"Hey!" The brawler snapped. "Not cool! I just find it hard to do crappy homework than physical trials that are actually relevant!"

Blake crossed her arms, nodding. "Huh, so they did fly across hanging on each other. Cool..."
Weiss sighed. "Predictable. Knowing how they all seem to be at each other's throats, these legions, I was waiting for one of those other kings to start using this Armour of Catastrophe's rampage as an excuse to ambush someone."
Yang rubbed her chin. "You know...the Yellow King sounds familiar...I dunno why, but I think he does. I love his jester motif, though."

Episode 11

"Of course, the completely not-evil-looking jester Yellow Radio was totally not going to be behind these shenanigans." Weiss remarked. "Seriously, you would think that these gamers would at least see THAT coming, even if he is another player."
Yang whistled. "If it's any consolation, at least Yellow Radio wasn't introduced early on, so you can't exactly accuse them of being genre blind."

Blake shrugged. "True, that. Also...Kuroyukihime, you lack manliness. How could he reminding you of what you did in the past break you that bad? You're supposed to be the uber-badass sexy mentor!"

"Good Dust, Blake, just because she has issues- and I am not referring to her perversion- does not mean she isn't...whatever you mean by manly! I thought we went through this when those girls from Japan beat you!" Weiss snapped irritably. Blake shrugged.

"I'm contractually obligated to make references to manliness. It's nice to have something that sets you apart, you know." The catgirl responded matter-of-factly. "If I'm honest, though, it must be rough for her to go through that kind of trauma. Over a video game, granted, but one that, if I'm right, alters the mind and screws with it."

Weiss rubbed her chin curiously. "I'm curious about what kind of authorities allowed games like Brain Burst if they had that kind of effect on people's psyches."

Ruby tilted her head. "Oooh. Taku redeemed himself quickly from the whole 'jerky boyfriend' phase. It's nice to know they do get redeemed, at least. I hate it when someone's completely unredeemable."

"I still don't trust him, but he doesn't grate on me as much. Probably because he's had the stuffing beaten out of him for the last couple of episodes." The heiress admitted. "And he has the good sense to sincerely befriend the protagonist again, which makes him savvier than ninety-percent of bastard boyfriends."

Blake took a sip of her own can, cheering. "Hey, Haru roused his girlfriend! And I forgot quite a bit of this anime, but...was the fight between Yellow Radio and Black Lotus this awesome?"
"It was!" Yang squeed, cheering. "However..."

Weiss grumbled. "Of course, everyone forgets the giant monster of kill everything they came to kill off in the first place. At least that scumbag jester gets his just desserts, even if it doesn't kill him..."

Episode 12

"...YUNIKO YOU CRAZY WOMAN WHY ARE YOU ATTACKING THE PEOPLE YOU SENT TO HELP YOU KILL THAT THING" Weiss shrieked at the screen. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING"
Yang flinched. "Calm down! Sheesh, hasn't it been established Niko's a complete madwoman?"
"Treason is bad and she should feel bad." Ruby huffed, crossing her arms. "Although that's a really stupid idea to attack another Queen who just finished wiping the floor with a stronger one..."

Yang cringed. "...oh my. I remember this part...I always felt sorry for the guy in the armour."

"...there's a person in the armour? I forgot." Weiss sighed. "To think someone would be driven to using an armour that literally screws with your actual psyche to that extent...

...Brain Burst seriously needs more beta testers if there are things that literally do things to one's mind."
"...eeesh. She had to be the one who killed him." Ruby frowned. "That's...that's rough, even for her."

Weiss sighed exasperatedly. "This game really is being taken far too seriously. But, then, I suppose, a game that allows you to have the reflexes of a trained Hunter for almost free, and mindwipes you should you get it uninstalled grants far too much real life consequences not to."

"And all's well that ends well. Niko gets to talk to her friend out of the game, Haru took a level in badass and Kuroyukihime is over her whole traitor thing." Yang clapped. "And now the most irritating arc comes up!"
"Irritating?" Weiss raised an eyebrow. "Coming from you, I'm actually scared."
The brawler frowned, looking a little offended. "I've been trying to clean up my act, y'know. I want the fans to like me again, and I'm a little hurt you're doing that."
"...sorry." The heiress shook her head. "Even if I don't know what...fans you're talking about, that was uncalled for."

Episode 13

"...firstly, someone pick up the phone because I called Chiyu joining the heroes in Brain Burst." Weiss remarked triumphantly. "Secondly...is this Noumi the bad guy?"
Yang clapped. "How did you guess?"
"He's not doing anything and I already want to slap him, the smug idiot." The heiress remarked. "Props to whoever played him for somehow managing to make him hateable before we actually see him do anything."

"...you know, with the voice, the looks and the healing powers, Chiyu sounds like someone from another anime..." Ruby remarked, rubbing her chin. "...Usagi? Hinata? No, no...can't think of who."

Weiss frowned. "How come she's decent at playing that game already?"
This time, it was Blake's turn to remark at Weiss. "She's not decent, you just can't play games and think that's decent."
"...fair enough."
"Oh come on!" Yang cried, offended. "Why is it okay when she says it but not when I do?!"

"...and of course, like our beloved jerk boyfriend of a guy from the first couple of episodes, this Noumi person is a cheater." Weiss muttered. "Not bad yet, but we'll see..."

Yang cringed, remembering the events of later episodes. "Oh, you will see. You'll see, alright."

Episode 14

Weiss sighed. "It's just utterly convenient that Kuroyukihime, the one person who could put a scupper on this scumbag's plans, just had to be on a school trip when her boyfriend had to deal with him, isn't it?"
"Rather convenient indeed." Yang nodded in response. "I think that's the only excuse Kawahara could come up with to have her not just stomp Noumi into the ground the moment he messed with Haru out of sheer protective-girlfriendness. I mean, considering how good she is at the game, she could probably literally kill him, over and over, until he ran out of Burst Points and the game uninstalled itself."

"...oh wow." Ruby blinked. "Of course ,blackmail. It's always blackmail. Genius blackmail, but blackmail."

"...and you now know why that's irritating to do." The heiress commented, turning to Yang, who blanched.

"N-now just hold a second! One, Noumi's a jerk who, as you can see, wants to use it to get Burst Points so he can cheat on games more, whereas I just want to ship people together, and two, it's not like I basically alter your reality to blackmail you!"

Episode 15
"And he can steal people's abilities. Including Haru's wings." The heiress clenched her fist. "...and he's bragging about it, too? ...the little rat, I hate him, I hate him, I hate him."

Yang nodded, patting her on the back. "I know the feels. Noumi's a bastard. And...ggh...the creepy undertones of that...just...holding someone that close..."

"...and so, his character development into a badass was undone by him losing his wings." Blake commented, rubbing her temples in irritation. "Well, not so different to what happened to Simon...and he's even lost his mentor, too, if temporarily. You know, if he's talking to her, why doesn't he get her to stomp him into the ground anyway? She would basically die for him, he's seen her almost do it!"
Yang shrugged. "Honour? The fact that if Noumi dies while having stolen Haru's wings, he might not get them back? We don't know if the whole ontological inertia thing applies here, y'know."
"...wait. The biker guy from the second episode helps him?" Ruby looked incredulously at the screen. "That guy? ...That was a heck of a setup."
Weiss chuckled. "To think he of all people would be the one to help the hero out of his depression. I'd like to see what kind of player would live on top of a mountain that tall though, especially with no stairs and the one person with wings in the whole game having them stolen..."

Episode 16

"Sky Raker? She...already reminds me of Winter, for some reason." Weiss mused.

Blake smirked. "Incarnate System. One of the things I loved about this anime, it basically had Spiral Power, but instead of making huge drills from it, you could use it to make blades, giant swords, cannons and stuff. More versatile, still as manly."

"...well, this should be an interesting training montage, with Haru trying to climb a mountain with, literally, his bare hands..." The heiress remarked, rubbing her chin. "...and that's just convenient, isn't it? It turned to metal."

Yang shrugged. "Eh, stuff happens. He's lucky it didn't turn to sponge or something."

"...Dust, he actually did climb a mountain with his bare hands..." Weiss looked at the screen in shock. "...good Dust. I give him too little credit.

And the real life Sky Raker...she actually even looks like my sister, only with brown hair! What the-"
"No, your sister's naive and nowhere near as...sagely as Sky Raker is." Yang pointed out. "She's also way bustier. Way too busty. Seriously, looking at you, Weiss, how is Winter so stacked?! That's ridiculous!"

"D-don't ask me! G-genetics just isn't kind to me! N-not that...n-not my chest isn't adequate..."

Episode 17

"...again, I say this." Weiss breathed in deeply. "If it wasn't for the risk of you losing your wings, Haru, you should call your violently protective girlfriend in to stomp this Noumi's head in and teach him some manners."

"Taku, challenging a person who can steal powers and stole the only pair of wings in the game?" Ruby whistled. "He's got courage, I'll give him that. Good Dust, especially when you think about the fact that his weapon amounts to an exploding spear he impales people with and good Dust that sounds wrong."

"You think?" Weiss remarked, staring at her. "Why did you have to use those specific words?"

"It's a perfect description!"

"Not...not really, if it sounds like that."

"...and predictably, Taku, in the grand tradition of the likes of Worf, Berserker and Captain America, gets obliterated because Noumi's just that powerful. Well, to be fair, he did try to take on a person whose powers include giant tentacles, wings and power stealing, with an exploding lance." Yang admitted. "Even without that trope, the odds just weren't for him."

"...Chiyu? CHIYU YOU TRAITOR HOW COULD YOU HE WAS NEARLY BEATEN AND YOU JUST HEALED HIM WHY" The heiress snapped, growling at the screen as, indeed, the aforementioned girl stopped Noumi from dying.

"...and even the traitor thing? Gggh...I know I know who Chiyu's like..." Ruby remarked, tapping her temple to jog her memory. "Ugh...who?!"

Episodes 18-19

Weiss cried out in exasperation. "Oh come on! That was a ridiculous cliffhanger! Seriously?! We're focusing on that pervert woman's school trip?"
"...this part's pretty boring. All it does is set up one villain who hasn't come back yet and some reins to control beasts or something." Yang admitted. "We can some it up as the only part of the anime Blake likes."
"What?" The heiress turned towards Blake, who shrugged.

"It's the part of the anime where there's a legitimate humongous mecha made from scrap." The catgirl stated, giggling. "It's pretty fun, but otherwise, there's nothing much else in this. Just a bunch of fun fights and some foreshadowing which doesn't pay off unless you read the light novels."
Weiss sighed, looking back to the screen. "Well, if that's the case, then we should just skip to episode...twenty?"
"Twenty, yeah."
"Alright, then. There we go."

Episode 20

"So that's where the Armour of Catastrophe went." The heiress realised. "...it latched onto Haru and gave him an evil side. This...ought to be interesting...and DAMMIT THE TIME RAN OUT."

Ruby pouted. "That was so close! Come on! He nearly beat him!"

"There's still four episodes left. Noumi's still around for those, sadly..." Yang reminded them, frowning. "...and dammit, Chiyu, you're a terrible liar. Even if I didn't know what happens, you're making it pretty obvious you didn't join that bastard for power."

Weiss raised an eyebrow. "She had me fooled, for one."
The brawler punched the air, irritated. "Dammit! I spoiled that part! Well...it was pretty obvious, anyway. She's not the type to just backstab her best friends like that, you've seen enough of the anime to know."
"True." The heiress shrugged. "...and, of course, the only person they can learn about this...Incarnate System from apart from Sky Raker is the psycho woman herself, Yuniko. It really does get weird how things boil down to such desperate stuff, no?"

Episodes 21-22

"...ouch." Weiss cringed. "...well, we at least know why this Taku person was such a jerk at the beginning. Getting bullied that bad and cut up, anyone would cave."
"...and that somehow gets him an exploding lance?" Ruby raised an eyebrow. "I'd thought that would get you some serious armour. Well, more than he already has for his Avatar, anyway. Also, seriously? She's having way too much fun shooting them to train them up..."

Blake rubbed the back of her neck. "Blood Leopard's another one of my favourites. Seriously, her Avatar turns into a leopard and she's a ninja maid in real life. That's...that's just awesome."
"Rust Jigsaw? That can't be good." Weiss remarked. "Are we sure he isn't affiliated with Noumi somehow?"
"Probably is. I mean, he's hiding like a coward from the matching lists, and Rust Jigsaw's not on the lists either..." Ruby deduced. "They're probably doing the same thing...aaaaaand it's, of course, an illegal brain chip that hides them."
"Why would people get brain chips? Why would someone that young get something implanted in their brains?!" The heiress cried. "That's just stupid! And over the top for a game!"

Episodes 23-24

Weiss glared at the screen. "Gggh...that's ridiculously cowardly. Of course, he gets his conveniently hidden ally to trap Haru and make sure he can't fight. Seriously, I hate this guy already, and knowing that he got bullied by his older brother into that doesn't make him that much more sympathetic, just pitiful."
Ruby joined her girlfriend in glaring. "...and he takes his healer hostage to make Taku not fight? Wow. Just...he's...he's a douche."

"Finally! Finally, the pervert woman returns to show this idiot what for!" Weiss cried. "I'm actually happy to see Kuroyu...I can't be bothered to say her name, it's far too long. Seriously, where did she come up with the idea for that one?! I speak German and that's easier to say than her name!"

The reaper pumped her fist. "Yes! Of course! I knew Chiyu had to be planning something, and that...just that was genius, taking his wings back using her healing power! Which, apparently, is actually time manipulation or something!

Dammit, I know she's definitely similar to someone else I know now!"

"...and Haru finishes the jerk, rightfully." The heiress smiled, smugly. "Excellent, to see him defeated so utterly. Nice to know that at least some jerks get their comeuppance.

And he's far nicer without Brain Burst? See? That's what I'm saying! Games like these need to be tested better!"

"...and that ending's just plain adorable!" Ruby squeed, giggling. "That's...those two hugging like that? Come on!"

Yang sighed. "Yeah...I suppose. Well...I guess we're done with Accel World. You guys really liked it, I think.

...and it's still hot."

"...Dust dammit." Weiss closed her eyes, sighing. "...you're right. It was a fun series...but it's still steaming hot! And it's nearly night time!"

Blake groaned. "...at least it'll be colder later."

Needless to say, the night was marked with being an unusually warm night for Vale summers. At the very least, the girls had one blissful afternoon of enjoying themselves watching something, with precious little antics, and precious little insanity, for once.
