jeremiahkelley93: Great chapter.
Dragon Emperor0: Thanks.
Knightmare Lord: It was pretty cool seeing Team CRDL getting in on the action.
Dragon Emperor0: Yeah, expect these guys to actually be more than just one dimensional bullies in our story.
ThermalsniperN7: Exactly.
-SSSN Dorm-
It was 5:30 in the morning, and Neptune was sleeping like a log without a care in the world. Though this was ruined by…
HOOOOOOOOOONK!
Sundance blowing an air horn with Sky next to her plugging his ears. This made the blue haired teen fall out of his bed flailing and screaming.
"Wake up, blue boy, time to get a move on!" The gunslinger's Ghost yelled, the teen bonking his head on the bed frame.
Meanwhile, Sun dropped from the ceiling as he fell out of the bed hammock he'd made, causing the various food items he'd eaten in his sleep to fall on top of him.
And Ace, meanwhile, fell out of bed and on his head. "... You're lucky that I don't have my gun right now." He growled groggily.
"Uh huh." Was Sky's only response to that. "Anyway, shake out the cobwebs and get your shit unpacked. The sooner we're done, the more free time we have to do whatever the fuck we want." He added, clapping his hands before he started unpacking his own stuff.
"Well, I guess that's reasonable." Neptune sighed as he got up and stretched a bit before he started tending to his own things along with Sun. Ace took a bit longer to wake up before he got to work, though not before casting an irritated look at Sundance and Sky.
As they worked, it became noticeable that it would be crowded in their dorm. Sky had a quick solution involved, and stated that boundaries would be made by wherever their beds were along with a set amount of ten inches around them.
Sun pointed out that he'd be using his hammock and not an actual bed, so the area around that was free game for the others. Sky was fine with this, along with the others.
After a couple of hours, it was 7:15 and the boys were done with their room arrangements. However, another issue arose soon thereafter.
"Think we should make some bunkbeds?" Neptune wondered, looking at the rather crowded dorm.
"Depends on if Sundance has any power tools." Sky shrugged in reply. "Even then, we may need to wait until our first classes are done." He added.
"She does, and yeah. We will have to wait." Ace confirmed.
"Well, let's get dressed and go grab some breakfast, then." Sky said before he and the boys put on their uniforms and went to the cafeteria.
(Later)
Team SSSN was sitting in Grimm Studies with one Professor Port, who Ace thought belonged in a retirement home with how old he was along with the amount of absurd rambling he was doing. Team RWBY was also there, with the girls looking a little… Disheveled, and unprepared, for lack of better terms.
"Remind me again why we're listening to this guy?" The Guardian questioned as he was hiding behind his textbook, a live feed of the Crucible playing on his Scroll as he listened to it via headphones.
The Crucible was a sort of sporting event that Guardians participated in better themselves against each other. Both for sport and for notoriety. Additionally, the games also had body counts as the Guardians often killed each other in these games as well.
It was by far the most popular sport amongst the Guardian class, Huntsmen and Huntresses, next only to the Iron Banner and the Trials of Osiris.
"To see if he knows anything, and he seems to know things I don't." Sky replied, looking at some Grimm diagrams in a special book he found. Particularly, he was looking at the Deathstalker diagram to come up with new ways to kill them.
"That says a lot." Sun mused, Neptune having fallen asleep next to him.
(Later)
The next class the four went into was Hunter Regulation and Law, which both Sun and Neptune slept through while Sky and Ace picked up the slack by having Sundance record it and send it to their scrolls.
Then there was Team building, which the group spent a fair amount of time going over semblances and how they could possibly best improve their teamwork.
Sparring, on the other hand, was a class that got most of their attention, especially since Ace in particular seemed adamant about looking good in front of their classmates–though why was something that eluded the other three members of the team.
"What's Ace's deal with looking good in front of the others?" Sun wondered as they sat in the bleachers.
"No idea." The Knight leading the team shrugged in reply.
"It's all mind games, guys." Sun shrugged. "If you look good, you won't get–." He continued before...
BOOM!
The boys all paused before looking out a window and saw smoke coming from what they thought was another classroom.
"Uh, Professor? Which classroom was that?" Sky asked as he looked down at Glynda, who was pinching the bridge of her nose.
"That was the Dust Lab, Mr. Obsidian. It would seem someone has caused an explosive accident, on the first day of classes, no less." She sighed in exasperation. It would seem she wasn't expecting this to happen so soon. Not a moment later, she got a notification. "I'm afraid sparring matches will have to be put on hold for the time being. I am being summoned to Professor Ozpin's office." She told the students before she left.
The disappointment was very present after that since many there were looking forward to fighting.
(Meanwhile)
In Ozpin's office, Team RWBY was being reprimanded for their poor behavior and blowing up the Dust Lab on only their first day. This was done by Glynda, mainly, while Ozpin–being the crafty and wise coot he was–took a different approach.
"When I chose this method of team selection, I did this with the intent of getting individual Hunters to work with and against their own faults. Both as combatants and as people." He mused, getting the attention of the others. "Cooperation is one of the Kingdoms' greatest assets in the face of the Grimm. The four of you must learn this, and so, I will be assigning a team of senior classmen to help you work through this issue. On top of that, you will also have a week of community service to pay for the damage to the Dust Lab." He told the four girls.
"What?!" Weiss shouted indignantly. "Professor I hardly think that's necessary, I can just pay for the damages, really. It's no trouble." She told him.
"The issue isn't monetary, miss Schnee, but an issue of attitude. From where I'm standing, you haven't made any efforts to fit with your team and fight them every step of the way. Your biases also seem to be an issue as well." Ozpin dismissed. "So I believe that this will be the best course of action." He added.
Weiss was far from pleased by this development. To her, everything about this was Ruby's fault.
"It's hardly my fault that you made the mistake of making a child our team leader." The heiress spat before she stormed off.
The rest of the team save Ruby left soon after, Blake being fairly miffed by Weiss's words and Yang ready to punch said girl into next week. Though the Silver Eyed girl stayed behind to talk to Ozpin once more.
"Professor Ozpin?" She asked, getting his attention. "Do you… think Weiss is right? Did you make a mistake?" She asked.
"I have made many mistakes, Ruby. More than any man, woman and child on this planet. But no, I doI do not believe making you a leader was not one of them." The man told her in reply. "Give this time, and all will surely reveal themselves in time." He continued.
The speedster nodded nervously as she left the office, leaving the two teachers behind.
(Elsewhere)
Meanwhile, in Vale later that night, team SSSN was currently busy sitting around a local bar having a few drinks after a fairly long day of classes.
Specifically, Neptune ordered a fairly simple Tom Collins. Sun ordered a Mai Tai with a banana rum float. Ace ordered what looked to be a Tequila Old Fashioned with a splash (float) of Lost Abbey Agave Maria dark beer, and a Chilli garnish. And Sky, meanwhile, was having a shot of Bourbon on the rocks.
"Just what the doctor ordered." Ace sighed as he took a sip of his booze.
"This is just the first day. We got four years of this to deal with." Neptune sighed.
"Aw come on, Neptune, don't be such a sourpuss!" Sun laughed as he clapped his friend on the back, causing him to nearly spill his drink–the blonde's face rosy with an alcohol induced blush.
"Lightweights…" Sky muttered, looking barely drunk. When you spend a ton of time with people like the Branwens, you tend to learn how to hold your booze.
As the four continued to enjoy their drinks, they were soon seen by a few of the patrons that just saw them. And one of them managed to recognize Sky. This man happened to be someone the Knight robbed when he was still with the Branwens.
Growling, the man pulled a gun out and pointed it at Sky, but Ace spotted him and tackled Sky to the ground right as the trigger was pulled. The sound of a gunshot sent the other patrons running and screaming in panic.
"Okay, who do I need to put in the damn hospital?!" Ace growled as he helped Sky up.
"Come here, you brat!" The same man yelled as he rushed at Sky, only for the boy to Sparta kick him away, causing him to grunt on impact with the floor.
"You just picked the wrong guy to try and kill." Sky grunted, popping his neck.
This caused several more patrons who were with the guy to get up and start walking towards them, Sun not noticing because he finished his drink by this point and was passed out at the bar. Neptune, on the other hand, was trying to look as small as possible.
Snoring, the simian faunus rolled over and accidentally hit a button on the bar jukebox, causing "Burning to the Ground" by the rock band Dimeback to start playing.
Ace quickly dodged a punch from one of the guys before he took an empty bottle of whiskey from the bar and bashed him in the head with it. Another tried to attack him from behind, but ended up being taken down by a strong kick to the balls.
Sky blocked a wild right hook thrown at him, grabbed the thug who threw it, and slammed his head on the bar. Then he threw him into another hapless idiot and made them collapse in a heap. Another tried his luck, but the boy just grabbed his head and slammed it into his knee, knocking him out.
The same man that started the whole bar fight tried to rush Sky again, proving that he didn't learn anything and ended up getting judo flipped onto the ground, causing him to grunt before his target stomped on his face, knocking him out.
"Time to go!" The Knight called to his team as Neptune jumped to avoid a guy running towards him, causing him to slam into the bar.
"Aye Cap'n!" Ace called as he grabbed Sun's sleeping form before they all ran up the stairs in the bar towards the top level back exit, and stopped when a group of guys was carrying a guy around to throw him over the banister.
"Uh… after you." Neptune said nervously as they moved aside, allowing the guys to hurl the other guy down to the ground floor below.
"Okay, let's go." Sky told his team, and they immediately left the bar before heading back to Beacon. Definitely one of the more chaotic first days in their case.
(The next day)
The four boys stood in Ozpin's office, and apparently the headmaster along with Glynda had received word of what had happened. While Glynda was peeved about them going to a bar, she could acknowledge that they were of legal age, so it was really up to them.
"Do you know why I called you four here?" The headmaster inquired.
"It's because of the bar fight we ended up being caught in, isn't it?" Ace asked in reply.
"... Yes." The Headmaster nodded, surprised that they had already gotten an idea of what he called them for.
"Well, just so you know, we didn't start the fight." Sky told them.
"Yeah. Somebody we never got the name of pulled a gun out and tried to shoot Sky." Neptune added, having been filled in when all the chaos had died down.
"Yeah, then I cracked a whiskey bottle on his head." Ace added.
"We don't need to cover the fight in full detail, Ace." Sundance interjected flatly.
"Regardless…" Ozpin spoke up, getting their attention back. "While it is true you didn't instigate the fight, I can see some… lingering issues in some of you." He continued, looking at Sky and Ace briefly. "So, to help with these issues, I'm assigning a Huntsman of my choosing to help each of you individually." He finished.
"Do we really need this?" Ace wondered dismissively.
"From our standpoint, yes." Glynda told him in reply, causing him to grunt in irritation.
"Why am I not surprised?" Sky groaned as he leaned back on his heels.
(Later)
Come lunch time the same day, Team SSSN was sitting across from Team RWBY having lunch like usual–and unfortunately had to sit as Weiss was airing her grievances with each of her teammates individually.
"This feels like a powder keg that went off." Neptune remarked quietly, picking at his food with a fork.
"Tell me about it." Sky muttered back.
Though when insulting remarks aimed toward Ruby and Yang left her mouth, he felt angry that this child of an heiress dared to insult his friends. He managed to tone it down to a glare, however, to keep a fight from breaking out.
"You really don't know how to just get along, do you princess?" Ace chimed in, voicing Sky's irritation without knowing.
"Be quiet. This doesn't concern you." The girl snapped.
"Are you sure about that?" Sky deadpanned. "Because I literally just watched you insult two of my friends in the style of a spoiled child." He added.
"Wha–! How dare you! That dolt can't lead anyone!" The whitette snapped. "And what would you even know about leadership?!" She demanded.
"Enough to know that real leaders don't belittle the people around them." The Knight shot back calmly. "And from what I'm seeing, you are nowhere near qualified for such a role with that attitude." He added. Sun spoke up before the heiress could go on a rant.
"Sky has the right idea. You can't just put people down over their shortcomings, or things'll just get worse." He stated.
"Yeah." Neptune nodded.
During this entire exchange, Blake was quiet as she glared at Cardin who was bullying a Faunus kid across the cafeteria. Though before anything could be done, a second year team suddenly came into the eating area, interrupting everyone.
The first, obviously the leader, had fair skin, brown hair under a black beret, and sunglasses. She also seemed like she was a fashionista, based on the clothes she was wearing, which was mostly blacks and browns.
The second was a rabbit faunus, as indicated by the brown rabbit ears, with brown hair, lightly tanned skin and brown eyes. She was also wearing a black, brown and gold skin tight suit.
The third was a massive teen who wore green armor. He had very short hair and had features that were Mistralian in origin.
And the fourth was a dark skinned boy with maroon hair who seemed to be blind, dressed in red and black.
"Team RWBY? Come with us." The leader ordered.
The girls groaned before they got up, leaving a slightly confused Team SSSN behind.
"... Think this is related to the Dust Lab incident yesterday?" Neptune asked.
"That's the only thing I can connect that to. Must be part of their punishment." Sky shrugged.
(Elsewhere)
Meanwhile Team RWBY was split off with different members of CFVY. Ruby being with Coco, Weiss with Fox, Blake with Velvet, and Yatsuhashi with Yang.
-With Ruby-
Ruby was taken by Coco to the latter's dorm, where she proceeded to use fashion to outfit the former's issues. While a bit on the dry side, she is good natured, and joked a bit to ease the mood.
"Okay, red, mind telling me how you're approaching your leadership role?" Coco asked, holding a white dress in front of the mini reaper.
"W-Well, I was going to take up a more serious role on missions, or situations like–ya know–missions…" Ruby trailed off, shuddering a bit. "Like ones involving that Worm God from initiation." She finished.
"The whole school heard about that. Virtually everybody didn't know those bastards could regenerate." The brunette shivered. "That aside, though, being a leader is a 'round the clock job. Circumstances don't matter." She admonished her. "Sure, being a goofball is well and good, but you're always wearing the team leader hat." She added, putting a tophat on Ruby's head for emphasis. "Any outfit you're wearing needs to match it at all times." She finished.
"I… I think I understand." Ruby sighed as she sat in a chair. "I didn't expect to be made team leader, mainly because I'm… dependent on others." She added. It may not seem like it at first, but Ruby was aware of her faults, and wanted people to be aware of them.
"Every leader starts that way." Coco told her knowingly. "I know I did. Trust me, red, you'll get better at leadership in time." She added.
"... I mean… Whatever you say." The speedster sighed slightly.
-With Yang-
Meanwhile, Yang was in the weights room doing some exercises while Yatsu was busy meditating. The blonde was basically using him as a sounding board for her own issues rather than opening a debate.
"I mean, I'm happy for Ruby and I want to help her. But I need her to be able to take care of herself without me. Because…" She trailed off. "Because I'm not sure if I'll be there for her forever–or worse, that I may leave her…" Trailing off again. "Like my mom left me." She added with a sigh.
"Are you sure?" The senior student questioned, breaking his silence. "Everyone needs someone to give them strength and keep moving forward. Your concerns are only setting a self fulfilling prophecy in motion, which is what is making you distance yourself from her." He continued.
Yang fell silent as she took this in, causing her to ruminate in these words the rest of the time.
-With Weiss-
Outside in the courtyard Weiss was ranting as Fox stayed silent–mainly because the girl wouldn't let him get a word in edgewise–about her teammates and how if she was in charge, she'd have them ready by now. How infuriating it was to get talked down to by Ruby on a few occasions. And…
"Then there's that band of idiots, Team SSSN. That Obsidian boy thinks he's so much better and morally higher than me. A low born Mistralian field rat–to me, the heiress could the Schnee Dust company!" She growled, before her thoughts turned to Ace, her face burning a shade of rose pink as she thought of the time he caught her and told her to be careful. "And don't even get me started on that crass casanova he calls a second in command!" She snarled, stamping her foot.
Fox could only sit silently through the girl's rant, unable to say a single word.
-With Blake-
Meanwhile, Blake was with Velvet. The two faunus girls were in the gardens around the school while they talked.
"Velvet, doesn't it bother you that Cardin bullies you? Even though you're a year above him?" The cat faunus questioned, much to the bunny girl's embarrassment.
"I didn't think you'd seen that." She admitted before clearing her throat a bit. "I put up with it because an eye for an eye makes the world blind. Hurting him just adds fuel to the faunus hating fire, so I just deal with it. I'll make friends with him eventually." She explained, tending to some flowers. "I won't casually put myself in a position to be bullied, mind you, but I know my limits. "I'll deal with it, even if it hurts." She continued. "I prefer friends over enemies. Cardin's just another challenge." She finished.
Blake stared at Velvet as she heard this, before slowly looking away, her face darkening as she remembered something she wasn't proud of…
(Elsewhere)
Meanwhile with Team SSSN, the boys were on the dorm roof waiting for the Huntsman Ozpin was pairing them with, who was apparently running late. This continued for a while, until out of boredom…
BANG!
Ace shot himself in the head, causing himself to fall limp as he fell to the ground, dead.
"WHAT THE–!" Sky yelled in shock, which the rest of the team shared. "Uh, Sundance?" He called.
"Don't worry. It's normal for a Guardian to do this when practicing Thanatonautics." She explained.
"Thanata-what now?" Sun questioned, confused as he rubbed his head, having hit his head by mistake from the gunshot startling him.
"Thanatonautics are how Guardians often communicate with the Traveler. They believe that dying repeatedly let's them gleam visions of the past and future." The Ghost explained. "Warlocks like Osiris and Toland were avid about its effectiveness. And I know exactly what it looks like, since suicide is often involved." She added sheepishly.
"Uh, yeah. It sounds unhealthy." Neptune commented uneasily.
"Believe me, a lot of Guardians think it's a bad idea. Lord Shaxx even says he thinks it's just an excuse for insomnia." Sundance replied, before she quickly resurrected Ace.
"WOW! That was a trip!" The Hunter exclaimed as he shot back up.
"You really need some help." Sun commented, looking a bit worried about his teammate's mental state.
"When I want psychiatric advice from a teammate, I'll ask for it. Alright, grape ape?" The gunslinger retorted as he shook the cobwebs out of his head… and noticed that he seemed stimulated. 'Not surprising, given what I saw.' He thought.
What did he see?
His first time with Weiss during a future school "when" was unclear, but it certainly made the boy think that it was worth looking forward to. Unless it was just a dream.
However, before he could ruminate on this any further, a man walked out from behind the air conditioning unit, startling the boys again.
"Who the– Wait a sec… Qrow? Is that you?" Sky started before recognizing exactly who it was.
"You know this guy?" Sun asked, looking at his leader.
"Yeah. He's the one that got me here from Mistral." Sky replied with a nod.
"That's right, kid. Oz's having me get you four evaluated, and I can already see one issue." The drunkard nodded, looking at Ace.
"Fuck off." The Hunter retorted, flipping the man the bird before pulling out a cigarette and lit it by conjuring a bit of solar light on his finger and started smoking.
"I rest my case." Qrow stated simply. "Okay, we'll do this one by one. Obsidian, you're first." He added before he led them back down to the team's dorm. This was a means to somewhat put them at ease with a familiar setting.
-Sky's session-
"Okay, from what I've read on your psych eval, you've got some trust issues." The man began, pulling up Sky's profile on his scroll. "Trust is an important element in a team. It can't function efficiently without it. Where's this coming from?" He asked. Sky sighed as he ran a hand through his hair.
"It all dates back to when I was still a kid. My entire home village was razed, my parents killed and my sister taken by one man, who I thought I could trust." Sky began. "After that incident, I spent years getting stabbed in the back, which only added to my trust issues. Even when I found my way to the Branwens, they lingered." He continued, looking out the window at the setting sun. "Though… Some of that was helped when I got a girlfriend in the tribe after a couple of years." He admitted, a fond smile coming over his face.
"But it wasn't total." Qrow noted.
"No." The boy sighed.
"You mentioned a sister…?" The man asked.
"Autumn, yeah. She was two or three at the time. Probably doesn't even remember the whole ordeal now." Sky nodded, before he raised his shirt, showing a birthmark on his back. "She has the same birthmark as me."
Said mark was rather odd: it looked like a pair of heels joined together to form a heart. It was faded flesh tone in color, barely visible from a distance.
"Huh. Definitely a unique one." The Huntsman noted, memorizing it.
"Yeah. Her's is between her shoulder blades, so I'm using that as a clue to find her." Sky nodded.
Qrow was silent for a moment before he pulled out his scroll. "Does this look like it at all?" He asked, showing him the same picture he showed him the first time they met, and other pics of the same girl, but from different angles. Sky looked at each of them carefully for a few moments before nodding.
"Yeah, and the birthmark on her back checks out." He nodded in confirmation. "Where the hell was she all these years…?" He muttered to himself, unsure of what to feel, depending on what his sister was subjected to.
"Hate to say it, kid, but it looks like your sis has fallen in with a real bad bunch." Qrow explained. "I can't explain it in detail here, but come see Ozpin later. He'll explain things from there." He added.
"Fair enough." The Knight nodded.
-Ace's session-
"I think I got a general idea of what the hell you're gonna try to say to me." Ace deadpanned as he sat in a chair, boots propped up on his desk.
"Kid, whatever you think your issues are, trust me, I've seen way worse." The bad luck charm stated as he took a swig from his flask. "Never knew Hunters were into Thanatonautics, thought that was a Warlock thing." He noted.
"It's a universal thing. Any Guardian can do it." Ace shrugged.
"That said, you really gotta try to work on that attitude of yours." The man told him.
"Oh please. What is there to work on?" The Hunter scoffed dismissively.
"A lot." Qrow deadpanned. "You come off as cantankerous to some, possess little to no value for your own life and a lot of other things." He listed off.
"And?" Ace shrugged.
"What's more you're more than a little abrasive towards those who should be your friends." The Huntsman continued. "You're nonchalant and tend to be more than a bit lazy." He added.
"Hey, it's how I live." The boy shrugged.
"Will it be worth it in the long run?" Qrow asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I'm not concerned about the long term. It's what keeps me ready-made for this job." Ace retorted.
'Looks like I can add stubborn to the list… ' Qrow thought with a dry look on his face.
"Look, you don't know the shit I've been through, so you don't get to judge me." The gunslinger snapped.
"Don't I?" Qrow growled back with a glare. "You don't know what I've been through either, so you don't get to act like a little brat about it." He added, glare still in place.
Ace was silent as the man said this, before remembering how Weiss was acting and cursed mentally.
"Whatever…" He mumbled before turning away from the man as they remained silent.
-Neptune's session-
"Okay, you don't have much wrong with you. Though the lack of a spine at times, metaphorically speaking, is gonna be a problem in a situation where it's do or die." Qrow noted, looking at Neptune's profile.
"Hey, I'm still new at this." The goggled teen responded defensively. "Plus I can be useful when I need to be! I helped kill that Worm God, didn't I…? Least 'till it regenerated." He added.
"True, but what about when the time comes where you gotta take some human and faunus lives? You gotta be sure you can stomach it when it happens, and that isn't easy." The drunkard told him. This made the blue haired teen pause for a moment, thinking it over before sighing.
"I think I may need some help with that one. The best I can come up with for that is that I'll have time to puke about it later." He stated in an uneasy tone.
"That's probably good enough for your inevitable first kill." Qrow sighed, taking a swig from his flask.
"... You don't think I'll have to do any jobs around water, do you?" Neptune questioned, causing the Huntsman to stop mid swig.
He then looked down at the file Ozpin gave him and read the word "thalassophobia" on it. Fear of the sea, or water in general.
"You may find yourself near shallow rivers at times, so that shouldn't be a big issue." Qrow mused as Neptune nodded, the teen actually feeling fine with simple rivers. "Most of the bigger jobs often take place near bigger bodies of water, along coast lines and at docks. You might need to work on getting that phobia of yours under control, at the very least." He added.
"Easier said than done, old man!" The boy snapped defensively.
-Sun's session-
"Ya know, I've actually met your old man a few times." Qrow said as Sun hung from the ceiling in front of him.
"Let me guess: He's a mountain's worth of issues?" The monkey boy guessed, having heard from his mom what Shan was like.
"The guy goes around fighting everything that messes with him and banging anything that doesn't, kid. You tell me." The bad luck charm stated in a flat tone.
"Don't think I need to." Sun muttered more to himself than anyone else. "Anyway, is this the part where I hear you list off some issues I have?" He asked.
"Yeah, but I think you can probably guess what I'm gonna say." The man nodded.
"I'm too lazy, I steal too much, I don't tell people where I'm going, and I don't tend to think things through." The faunus listed.
"Wouldn't have said it that bluntly, but yeah." Qrow agreed.
"It isn't exactly a walk in the park to get these things dealt with, but keeping people informed is something I'm trying to work on first. Gotta keep Sky informed or I'll have a bruise on my head." The simian boy stated, shivering a bit at the thought of Sky clocking him on the head.
"Good plan, kid. Good plan." The Huntsman nodded approvingly.
Dragon Emperor0: Well, that week went up in the "Oh Shit" factor real quick. I mean... A bar fight? Really guys?
ThermalsniperN7: To be fair, a nameless dumbass that Sky robbed when he still rode with the Branwens did start it, but this'll be the only time he appears. Sky also tore into Weiss a bit, saying she isn't cut out for leadership, and quite frankly, he's right. Especially with how she's acting presently. We also referenced Celtic Phoenix, btw, AND NO HATE! I refuse to accept hate just because we're referring to him when we write these chapters.
Dragon Emperor0: Yeah, you gatekeeping assholes are part of the reason people hate the RWBY Fandom now. So honestly? You all can go fuck yourselves in the ass up the face of a mountain with a steel cactus. (I'm sorry ThermalsniperN7, but I'm stealing this).
ThermalsniperN7: (Meh, it's okay.) Anyway, I get the feeling if Sky heard just what Weiss thought of him, especially her classist views, he'd just shrug off and say it's not the first time he's heard something stupid directed at him. He's from the real world, where things like classism are deemed deadweight.
Dragon Emperor0: And Racism, lest we forget. Anyway, see you guys next time.
