Abs (5:23 PM): How am I only finding out now that Weiss is the heiress of the Schnee Electric Company?
Chocoholic (5:24 PM): Did Blake just tell you?
Abs (5:25 PM): Not really. We were just hanging out, she's reading a book, and Weiss's last name suddenly clicked for me. I looked it up and bam!
Snowflake (5:27 PM): I suppose I should be happy that we've gotten along without you intentionally sucking up to me, but at the same time I'm curious about how many other girls you might know with snow white hair and the last name of Schnee
Abs (5:28 PM): Not even one. But come on, how was I supposed to know that every time I buy a Pep-Schnee I'm basically paying you taxes?
Fast Sloth (5:29 PM): Pep-Schnees are just sad cokes.
Snowflake (5:30 PM): describing it as taxes is a little- Nora I will mute you on principle
Fast Sloth (5:31 PM): ;)
Book Lover (5:32 PM): the "electric" in its name honestly fails to take into account how many different business types it has its fingers in now
Snowflake (5:33 PM): Some faring better than others, I'll admit
Abs (5:34 PM): Can I ask a nosy question?
Snowflake (5:35 PM): you won't be the last. Go ahead
Abs (5:36 PM): Some of the articles I read have your little bro Whitley as the heir to be, but most later news bits have it switched to you. Nothing bad happened to your brother, right?
Snowflake (5:38 PM): oh goodness, that's a question I'll answer happily. Well, first you should know that there are three children in my family: Whitley, myself, and the oldest, Winter. Winter was the heiress until she joined the Atlesian military, so the role fell to me
Snowflake (5:39 PM): I groomed myself to be the best CEO possible, but it seemed that my father didn't like how much "Winter" he saw in me and elected to make Whitley the Heir instead. Until about a year ago, I was only on the business track to try and find a new avenue of life for myself.
Abs (5:40 PM): gonna be honest, you being happy to share this has me scared
Fast Sloth (5:41 PM): it's her favorite bedtime story
Chocoholic (5:41 PM): You should have her tell it in person, her eyes light up like it's her birthday
Snowflake (5:41 PM): last summer, Whitley decided to spend the weekend over at a friend's house. Nothing unusual, so none of us suspected anything; but then, miracle of all miracles, he came back a stoner
Snowflake (5:42 PM): And I don't mean "he occasionally uses marijuana recreationally", I mean he became the very icon adults fear when they hear their child is on drugs. Eyes always glazed over, slow speaking "duuuude"
Abs (5:43 PM): Wow
Book Lover (5:43 PM): I met him, can confirm
Snowflake (5:44 PM): we came to find out that he had smoked weed prior to that weekend, but that just so happened to be the occasion that made him choose it as a lifestyle. One of the first rules of business: don't put an addict in charge of a company
Fast Sloth (5:45 PM): And so Heiress Weiss re-emerged like a glorious Phoenix!
Chocoholic (5:46 PM): She threw us a party to celebrate.
Book Lover (5:46 PM): absolutely killer sushi
Abs (5:47 PM): hey, as long as nobody got hurt over it, I'm happy for you
Snowflake (5:48 PM): Thank you. As a side benefit, I can use some of the hours I put into the company for the school mandated "internship" hours. No being a simple paper pusher for me.
Fast Sloth (5:49 PM): In the meanwhile, I have to get ready to start seeing patients in 2 weeks. Nurse Nora is ready to take the world by storm!
Abs (5:50 PM): And that's scary for a whole different reason

T (1:21 PM): No one warned us about this!
A (1:21 PM): No one fuckin warned us about this!
Fast Sloth (1:22 PM): What's wrong?
T (1:22 PM): What's wrong, she says!?
A (1:23 PM): I feel like we were denied critical, need to know information: why did no one mention Jaune has seven sisters?!
Abs (1:24 PM): damn dude, that's a lot
Luna (1:24 PM): you have no idea
T (1:24 PM): WE WERE NOT PREPARED FOR THAT!
Fast Sloth (1:25 PM): what was the problem? How is not knowing so bad?
A (1:26 PM): first of all, it's just scary. walking into a room expecting to meet two or three girls and finding two or three sets is another thing entirely!
Rose (1:27 PM): didn't you two swap places to mess with Jaune when you first started flirting?
T (1:27 PM): ALSO, twins run in the family. Jaune has twins, Mel and I are twins, the math is pretty obvious!
Ninja (1:28 PM): have you really reached a point where children are being discussed?
T (1:29 PM): A few weeks ago I had to sit down with my sister and our boyfriend to figure out how we would accommodate my sister also dating our boyfriend's ex-girlfriend while still remaining with us too.
T (1:29 PM): at this point, what haven't we talked about.
T (1:30 PM): point is, they'll probably come marching out in platoons if Jaune and I ever have kids, I was not prepared to learn this at brunch. No number of bloody Marys makes this an okay thing to learn at that moment!
Snowflake (1:31 PM): well first of all, "boyfriend's ex-girlfriend" is a little strong for Jaune and I's relationship
Luna (1:32 PM): sad but true. I honestly thought I'd mentioned how many sisters i have before. Sorry, girls.
Abs (1:33 PM): bf ex gf, but that's too strong, so it was just one date?
Fast Sloth (1:34 PM): pity date gone bad
Luna (1:34 PM): I was so nervous I botched the whole thing
T (1:35 PM): I mean, I'm happy it didn't work out perfectly or else we never would've met you, but come on!
Luna (1:36 PM): I'll make it up to you later, promise.
A (1:37 PM): Ooh, this should be good

Ninja (3:34 PM): By the way, Weiss, about my business proposal...
Snowflake (3:35 PM): I brought it up to the board, but they're pretty sure that a new line of nutritional drinks couldn't support itself long term. I'm sorry.
Ninja (3:36 PM): Damn.
