"Helloooo! You've reached Jaune Arc! If I'm not answering, it means I'm probably off somewhere fighting monsters or... doing something really awesome like saving a cat, or the president's son! You know how it is, a leader's schedule can be really hectic nowadays, ha ha! Just kidding, I'm probably in school, but I'd totally do those things if I ha-- [BEEP]"

You keep saying that.

[beaconed]

[ there's a delay between their texts here. ]

weiss i wanna be your friend
but i dunno how
i mean i havent given up but

idk
maybe i am selfish

[heiroglyphs]

Maybe you are.
But that doesn't change the fact that you're the first person in a very long time who actually wanted to talk to me about my feelings.
I shouldn't have responded the way I did.

[But she did. She did because she has to push everyone away. Because she can't trust anyone because she's scared to trust anyone.]

[beaconed]

i doubt that
ruby cares a lot for you too
a lot of people do weiss
the only difference is that i somehow mess it up

you dont owe me any sorrys

[heiroglyphs]

[She knows Ruby cares. Yang and Blake, too. But it's... different. They'll try to calm her down if she goes overboard, but for the most part if she's angry they'll just leave her be. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that, this is just... something else.]

Can't you just accept my apology like a normal person?
Do you know how hard it is for someone like me to admit that she overreacted?
Do you know how many times that happened before I came to Beacon?
Practically zero.
Just let me be sorry, please.

[beaconed]

yes yes of course i accept!!
sorry!

its just that i'll keep making you mad unless you teach me
tell me what its like to be you so i know
i just wanna help!

[heiroglyphs]

[Oh man, is she really gonna do this? Is she going to sit here and spill her guts to Jaune Arc?

If it makes her feel better for being a jerk, yes.]

What do you want to know?

[beaconed]

not here
not like this
i want us to talk!
but only when youre ready to

[heiroglyphs]

[Well yeah, she was going to say the same thing. Her life story would take too long to type out anyway.]

Where do you want to meet?

Don't say your apartment.

[beaconed]

ok then how about MINE?

[ Ba Dum Tss! ]

[heiroglyphs]

nvm this was a bad idea

[beaconed]

sorry

[ Wow, he thought it was funny?? ]

[heiroglyphs]

Just try to be a little bit serious, okay? I don't do this very often and I'd rather not have to do it again.

[beaconed]

can do buddy!
but weiss
i dont want you to feel like you owe me this ok
if ur uncomfortable then we can do something else

i know a great place for us though
if i havent blown this yet

[heiroglyphs]

Keep giving me an excuse to back out and I just might do it.

[Have some conviction, Jaune Arc. When you get what you want, stop pushing it away!]

Where do you want to meet?

[beaconed]

somewhere in the pleasure district
i know a great place you'll like!
gonna send you the details asap as possible
im gonna scout it out first
to make sure it is what i think it is

[ ...This isn't what it looks like, I promise. ]

[heiroglyphs]

Alright, scout it out and let me know when you want to meet.

[What is this what is she even doing]
