Author's Note:

While rewatching RWBY as my kitten sleeps on top of me I remembered that my friend also guessed Penny was a robot because of her clothes. They reminded her of Halo Forerunners. I mentioned her before, she's the one who guessed Pyrrha would die. We were watching Pyrrha throw her spear at Jaune and she said "She's probably going to die." I've made jokes in the past about Ren and Blake not being able to enjoy shows because they guess everything on the first page. Those were inside jokes of mine that matched their character.

I also just noticed that Pyrrha's green eyeliner foreshadows her becoming a maiden.

Chapter 16- Hell's Angel

"Oh that's rich coming from you." Weiss pouted.

"Everything's rich coming from you." Yang quipped.

Weiss and Ruby groaned.

Jaune chuckled and hit play. "That was good."

"Hey!" Weiss protested.

Yang took a bow, Pyrrha and Jaune laughed.

"Hell's Angel" appeared on the screen with the theme.

"The title sounds like a biker gang." Nora commented. "Those guys were a huge problem in Mistral."

"Bandits." Pyrrha growled. "Murderers and thieves stealing from frontier villages to survive. Leaving the survivors to the Grimm."

"Are they a big problem in Mistral?" Yang asked

Ren grimaced, "Anima is full of bandits, Mistral has control over more land than any other other kingdom. But that also means the farther away from the capital you are. The more lawless it becomes."

Ruby and Yang nodded.

"Qrow taught us a little about Mistral." Ruby commented.

Jaune raised an eyebrow, confused.

"Our uncle taught at signal for a short time, he gave lessons on… well anything that he felt like or was told to." Yang explained. "But Hell's Angel sounds like Tex."

"Likely." Ren agreed.

Fade in to Church and Tucker outside Blue Base with a guitar strum.

"I was hoping for a freelancer episode, but Tex is back so whatever." Yang shrugged.

Church: "Tucker, c-come on man, help me. I need to find a way to have her stick around a bit longer."

Tucker: "Oh yeah sure, no problem. Maybe you and your girlfriend can find time to go on a killing spree. Do some real bonding."

"Tucker seems to be struggling with what he saw." Pyrrha paused for a moment. "It was very brutal."

"At least we know Lopez is fine." Jaune commented.

"He's a disembodied head." Weiss pointed out.

"He was a head for almost three full seasons." Jaune countered.

Church: "Tucker."

Tucker: "Oh, that's right, not your girlfriend. Just the girl that you're stalking, through multiple planes of existence."

Yang chuckled, "Heh, nice."

Church: "Hhgh."

Tucker: "Romantically."

Yang and Blake burst into laughter.

"Church is very determined." Blake commented.

Yang shrugged, "He loves Tex and isn't going to stop until he can help her. Whatever help means."

"More like help himself." Blake mumbled, "He can't let her go."

Church: "Please, I just need a little more time."

Tucker: "Why, who cares?"

Church: "I do! I'm supposed to do this."

"Supposed to?" Weiss asked.

"I think he feels he has to." Pyrrha explained.

Tucker: "Fine, where is she now?"

Church: "She's talking with Caboose."

Tucker: "Well that should keep her busy for at least a few minutes. Half an hour if she starts asking him math problems."

Yang snorted, Pyrrha chuckled, "Tex is better than that, she's never been cruel to Caboose like the others have... except for using him as target practice once."

"I think a little cruelty is warranted to a teammate that has at least three team kills." Weiss counted on her fingers. "Maybe more."

"He also shot south." Jaune added. "And he thought she was on his side."

Tex appears beside Church.

Tex: "Hey, I'm gonna stick around a while longer."

"That was easy." Yang laughed.

Church: "You are? I mean... you are?"

Tex: "Yeah. Caboose here said you guys need some help with the tank, so I figured ah, I could help with that too. What can I say, I like the kid."

Pyrrha chuckled and smiled wide, "That's sweet, and it truly shows she wants to be there."

"I'm not surprised she likes Caboose, some rare moments Tex has been motherly." Yang added.

"Very rare, in between yelling at Church and destroying the possibility of multiple men having children." Weiss gestured 'yelling at Church' on one hand, and 'destroying men's balls' on the other.

Caboose: "Plus I paid her a hundred dollars."

"Even with that, I still think she wants to be there." Pyrrha laughed.

Yang snickered, "Caboose is Church's true wingman."

Pyrrha nodded, "I think Church is forgetting their old rules, from Blood Gulch."

"Their what?" Ruby asked.

"Freelancers fought for whichever side paid them the most, that was their original purpose." Ren explained.

"In the old canon, before the changes and ret-cons." Blake added.

"Yes Blake we know." Ruby grumbled.

Blake chuckled, "I don't mind it."

Tex: "Yeah, that too."

Tucker: "Money - why didn't I think of that?"

Church: "Because you don't have any money?"

Tucker: "Good point. Hey Caboose, give me some money!"

"Mooch." Yang commented.

"That's rich coming from you." Weiss smirked.

"Yeah well- oh I already made that joke." Yang frowned, she saw Weiss's smirk. "Uhh what?"

Weiss snickered, Ruby and Blake soon joined in. Yang stared at them in shock.

"Did Weiss just make a good joke?" Yang asked.

"She got you!" Nora shouted.

Yang nodded, "Yeah, huh. Guess I'm really rubbing off on you huh?"

Weiss's smirk remained, "Make all the jokes you want Yang, I win."

Yang rolled her eyes and hid her smile.

Caboose: "Oka- wait. Is this a trick? I'll pay you a hundred dollars to show me how it works."

Pyrrha shook her head, "Oh Caboose."

"Weiss move over, we have someone else to mooch off of." Yang laughed.

"Gladly." Weiss bowed her head.

Cut to Grif and Simmons looking at Lopez's body.

Simmons: "I can't believe you guys didn't know this was Lopez, and not me."

"I would say 'me neither' but that would be a lie. I have learned to stop expecting much from them." Weiss commented.

Grif: "What do you expect, he had the perfect disguise."

"He spoke Spanish!" Weiss shouted.

"What happened to low expectations?" Blake asked.

"I can still be disappointed in them." Weiss explained.

"Harsh." Ruby mumbled.

"But fair." Weiss added.

Simmons: "He painted himself maroon. Badly!"

Grif: "Exactly! How could anyone be expected to see through that?"

"Simple deduction." Ren commented, Weiss chuckled.

Simmons: "He spoke Spanish, no one else does."

Grif: "That did seem weird at first, but, you always go through those annoying phases. Like, remember that time you were gonna learn to play banjo, or the time you were gonna be a vegan?"

Ren chuckled, "Nora sometimes goes through phases like that, except on a daily basis."

"I am a worldly person!" Nora grinned placing a hand on her chest.

Simmons: "What do you mean phases, I am a vegan. And I can play the banjo."

"Eh I've never gotten that far." Nora shrugged. "Things get so boring so fast."

"I can't imagine becoming a vegan." Blake commented. Fish is meat despite what some say.

"I can, It can't be that hard." Nora pondered.

"The brand of pancake and waffle mix I use is not vegan friendly." Ren stated.

"Nevermind." Nora shrugged the idea off.

Grif: "I know, and isn't all that annoying?"

Simmons: "But you couldn't figure it out. *groan*, you don't know me at all."

"Grif and Simmons actually have similar interests." Pyrrha commented.

Ruby nodded, "Yeah, they're always together and usually Grif can talk Simmons into doing things. Like acting out that movie or using super speed."

Grif: "To be fair, we didn't know Lopez either. We knew you both equally as little, so, you can see how we'd get confused. Also, we didn't really care."

Simmons: "Yeah, but Lopez was here a day. I've been here for years."

"I really want to know just how long they were in Blood Gulch. Apparently they ran out of water and drank ketchup for a majority of their time there." Pyrrha grimaced.

"Yummy." Yang muttered with a grimace.

"Yeah." Nora nodded, drooling slightly.

Ren backed away from her, "Nora, that's disgusting."

Grif: "You have? See, I'm learning new stuff about you already. Now the next time an evil robot tries to take your place, I'll have questions to ask it."

Simmons: "Shut up. Why the hell am I the one cleaning up my own body? This is insulting. Hey what do you think he was using all this equipment for?"

Weiss smiled, "Well at the very least Lopez's goal will be realized through Simmons."

"I still wonder what they will find, will they figure out they are in a memory unit?" Ren asked.

"I still think so." Weiss nodded.

"Yeah probably." Ruby agreed, "That'll be fun to see, imagine finding out your whole world was made by someone else!"

Nora nodded, "Yeah that would be super weird!" She chuckled nervously. Recalling the times she drank Coffee and her over imaginative dreams took over.

Grif: "I don't know, boring stuff? Who cares?"

Simmons: "Hmmm…"

Jaune chuckled.

Grif: "Oh, wait, I forgot, you like boring stuff. Never mind what I said, I'm sure it's something for sports."

"Sports are boring." Ruby groaned, "I don't get why you and dad like them so much! They throw or kick a ball back and forth for forever until one wins!"

"I could say the same about fighting, two or more people trade blows until one wins." Yang countered.

Pyrrha giggled, "Yang I love your description of fighting."

Ruby grimaced, "I like Ozpin's more." She mumbled.

Simmons: "It looks like we have a mystery to solve."

Blake hummed in agreement.

Grif: "What're you, twelve?"

Her hum turned into an embarrassed growl.

Cut to Tex at the tank, and Church approaching from the background.

Church: "Hey uh, hey you got a second?"

Caboose rises from behind the tank.

Caboose: "Sure! What do you want to talk about?"

Pyrrha held a hand to her mouth as she chuckled.

Church: "No, not you Caboose, I want to talk to Tex."

Tremor

Caboose: "Oh. Go ahead."

Pyrrha laughed again, Ren joined in.

Church: "I wanna talk to her alone."

Caboose: "You can't talk to someone alone, there has to be two people. Those are the rules, I don't make them."

"He's technically right" Nora commented

Ren nodded, laughing.

"Unless you're Maine." Yang grinned. "You know with all the A.I. In his head? He's quite the Maine-iac."

Ren chuckled, "That was good."

"Why are you encouraging her?" Ruby yelled.

Ren shrugged, "Her puns are very clever."

Ruby put her face in her hands as Yang hugged Ren, "Aww I knew someone appreciated my genius!"

Nora laughed at Ren's discomfort.

Church: "By myself."

Caboose: "Well, I- I suppose she could stand really far away, and then you can yell. That might, that might work."

Nora gasped, "Caboose is a genius! You can have a conversation alone!"

"The same could be done on a scroll call." Jaune added.

"You're a genius too." Nora nodded.

Ruby smirked and looked at her team, "And so am I."

Her team groaned, recalling her smugness when Oobleck's eccentric personality worked out for her.

Church: "Caboose, I would like for you, to leave."

Caboose: "Oh I, I get it, I'm so- I'm so embarrassed, I'll just go over there for a little while."

Pyrrha smiled, "That's nice… I wonder how he'll flip it."

Church: "Thank you."

Caboose: "Come on, Tex."

Pyrrha giggled, "There it is."

Yang burst out laughing, "Knowing Tex she'll go with him."

Blake chuckled, "Probably."

"I've never given much thought to it but Tex and Caboose would have an interesting dynamic if they had more scenes together." Pyrrha commented.

"All mixes of characters would, they're written very well in that sense." Blake added.

Ren nodded, "I think we've mentioned this before."

"Caboose is as clueless as Ruby." Weiss huffed.

"What did I do!" Ruby shouted, narrowing her eyes and placing a hand to her chest.

Weiss blushed for a second but hid it with a practiced smile, "I clearly wanted to go with Neptune on our first unofficial mission as team RWBY but you sent him with Yang."

Yang laughed, "I was waiting for you to call her on that."

"What? Don't be silly." Ruby tried to wave her off.

Weiss huffed, "I am not being silly, Ugh you're insufferably dense sometimes." Weiss turned away.

Ruby giggled and turned to Yang and Blake, she held a hand next to her mouth. "I knew!" She whispered. The two looked at one another and fell into a fit of muffled laughs.

My sister is evil sometimes, Yang thought as she inched away from her.

Church: "No no no no no, Tex, Te- please, can you help me out here?"

Tex: "Hoho, no no no. I'm sure this conversation is a lot more entertaining, than whatever you wanna say to me."

Yang and Pyrrha laughed.

"It really is." Jaune nodded.

Cut to Red Base. Another tremor occurs

Pyrrha muffled a sigh, a conversation we won't see.

Sarge: "Men, thanks for gathering so quickly. It appears we have a crisis on our hands. I'm now going to turn this meeting over to our Chief Science Engineer, Simmons."

Simmons: "Houh, finally some respect."

"Which is odd for Sarge." Ren commented.

"Wait for it!" Nora grinned.

Sarge: "...who is gonna talk for a little while, but not too much. And he's not going to over explain things in that way he does, and then he's gonna stop talking and turn the meeting back over to me. Simmons."

"There it is!" Nora laughed, Pyrrha joined in.

"Sarge and Caboose are a little predictable sometimes." Pyrrha shrugged.

"Or the show's sense of humor is." Ren pointed out.

"Doesn't make it any less funny." Yang protested.

Ren nodded, "Agreed."

Simmons: "Thank you Sarge."

"And as always, Simmons takes it in stride." Jaune commented.

Simmons: "Men, I have made a grave discovery. Analyzing equipment that Lopez was using, I have found that the planet is undergoing a total seismic breakdown. There's clear evidence of an unstoppable chain of events which is leading to a full systemic collapse. Now I realize this may cause some of you to panic."

Donut and Grif: "..."

Simmons: "Or, it may confuse most of you because you don't understand what I said."

"I'm waiting to hear a reason." Blake mumbled.

"We already know it, the memory unit is breaking." Nora pointed out, the unspoken 'duhh' in Nora's tone caused Blake to pout.

"I want to see if they find that out." Blake explained.

Sarge: "Can we wrap this up please."

Simmons: "The world is breaking, we're all gonna die."

Blake chuckled, "I like Simmons's way of breaking the news."

Yang nodded, "Me too, blunt without beating around the bush."

"He made it sound like there is no hope." Ruby complained.

"They've accomplished the impossible before- well they specifically haven't. But you know what I mean." Pyrrha gestured to the screen.

Grif: "What!?"

Donut: "Why would you tell us like that!? It's like ripping off a Band Aid!"

"That's the point." Yang commented.

Simmons: "You know what, fuck you guys. Stupid people get to live a life of worry and fear, you're all doomed."

"He says that as if it's a good thing?" Blake raised an eyebrow.

"Stupid people get to live a life of ignorance and bliss." Weiss countered Simmons.

Yang snorted, "They can do both."

"You two give people so little credit." Pyrrha shook her head.

"Us three, but I think the majority of people are ignorant rather than stupid." Blake explained.

"Eh, same thing." Yang quipped.

Blake and Weiss chuckled.

Grif: "This is the worst news ever."

Sarge: "Men don't worry. We've got a plan in place to resolve the problem."

Weiss pinched the bridge of her nose, "This plan will surely be idiotic."

"How very Weisz of you." Yang held in a laugh.

"What?" Weiss asked raising an eyebrow.

"Weiszzz, like wise." Yang explained. "You get it? Pun-wise." Yang cackled as everyone but Ren groaned.

"You're clever with name puns." Ren complimented.

"I know I'm on fire!" Yang activated her semblance, her hair began to sizzle as her eyes flashed red.

"Three for three." Ren chuckled.

"Zero for zero, these are not jokes. Ugh dad is already bad enough." Ruby whined.

"I learned from the master, and then became the master." Yang bowed.

"You're full of yourself." Weiss groaned.

"Guess you can say that I.. bite off more than I can chew! Ehh?" Yang raised her eyebrows looking around.

Jaune made a show of hitting play.

Simmons: "I can't wait to hear this."

Sarge reveals a board entitled: "Sarge's Plan to Kick the Planet's Ass". Another tremor occurs.

Nora burst out laughing, "I didn't know what I was expecting, but that's amazing!"

"It looks like Caboose drew it." Blake squinted.

"How do you fight a planet?" Pyrrha asked.

"Shoot the ground?" Ruby suggested.

Sarge: "Now we all know that the planet is trying to kill us. So we need to strike back, and quickly! Scare the crap out of it."

"He is personifying the planet in a terrible way." Ren shook his head.

Simmons: "What!?"

Sarge: "Grif, what's that bad sci-fi movie where they discover a natural disaster and their first attempt to solve the problem is to use a huge bomb?"

Jaune began to laugh.

Grif: "That's... every bad sci-fi movie, Sir."

"Spruce Willis in the third or fourth movie where a giant piece of the moon will crash into Remnant unless they drill a hole and put a bomb in it to blow it up." Jaune commented.

"I love those movies!" Nora shouted.

"They make fun of a lot of pop culture elements." Ren commented.

"A lot of it probably goes over our heads." Jaune added.

Sarge: "Exactly. So that's what we're gonna do. Now here's the plan. We're going to build an enormous drilling machine, and institute my three phase plan. Step one, bust through the crust; step two, skedaddle through the mantle; step three, bore to the core. Once in the core, we'll set off an enormous bomb to stabilize the planet."

"Nora I doubt I have to ask, but would that work?" Jaune asked.

Nora frowned, "Well I'm not a scientist but the lava that would flow out would be worse than any bomb."

"Isn't it magma when-" Jaune started.

"Don't be one of those people." Ruby groaned.

"And even before the bomb is set off the world would probably break from earthquakes." Nora added, she looked at the surprised faces around her and smirked. "Hey I like to read sometimes."

Simmons: "How will a bomb stabilize the planet?"

"I was hoping they would figure out the nature of their world." Ren commented.

"Me too." Blake nodded.

"It all kind of sounds like one of Sarge's crackpot theories." Weiss added.

"The ultimate twist is that it is one of his funny theories." Nora giggled.

Sarge: "It won't; duh. But through a series of dramatic setbacks, calamities, and yes, hopefully a few of us dying on the mission, we'll find the true cause and solution to the problem. And, save the world."

"So he thinks things will work out like an action movie?" Weiss asked.

Jaune shrugged, "I guess?"

"Is everyone ignoring the fact that they aren't even on a planet?" Ruby asked. "They're on one of those ring thingies."

Yang laughed, "Oh yeah, they always act like they're on a planet and not a ring."

"I just ignore the skybox." Jaune added.

Simmons: "Seriously?"

Grif: "I like the plan."

Donut: "Me too, let's do it."

"I love the three storylines and how each gets dumber than the last." Ruby giggled. "The freelancers with their serious life and death stuff. Church and his problems with Tex, then Red team off doing their own thing."

Nora laughed, "Red team's story is my favorite. It's just like the first few seasons."

"Even with all the badass fights and serious story, I like Church's story more." Yang shrugged.

"Me too, it's the perfect mix of comedy and story." Jaune nodded.

"I just like it because it's Church." Ruby shrugged.

"The freelancer storyline has some comedy." Pyrrha pointed out.

"I think it's self explanatory which story is my favorite." Blake chuckled.

"Whichever story has your crush Washington." Yang joked.

Blake glared at her, "Why do I put up with you."

Sarge: "Great, I'll get to work on the drill. Donut, you find the deepest darkest hole where we can stick it in."

Donut: "I have a list of candidates right here!"

Yang snorted, "Donut probably has the deepest."

"Yang grossss!" Ruby shouted.

Sarge: "Grif, I need you to build us a bomb."

Grif: "How the hell do I do that?"

Sarge: "Find a way, Son. Time is short."

Grif: "Okay, huhh, I guess I'll look on the Internet?"

"It would be ridiculous if you could look up how to build a bomb." Weiss scoffed, "That's just a recipe for disaster."

Ruby, Blake, and Nora all looked at each other, then back to Weiss. Weiss paled, "You cannot be serious."

"It's how I made my first bomb." Nora raised her hand.

"The people I watched on the CCTnet who made weapon crafting tutorials also talked about grenades and stuff." Ruby nodded.

Blake tried to hide in her seat, A lot of D.I.Y. I.E.D.'s were made in the early violent stages of the White Fang.

"I thought it was common knowledge." Jaune scratched the back of his neck.

Weiss's eyes widened, "Common knowledge! Anyone can look up how to make a bomb. How is this not a bigger problem?"

Everyone shrugged, Weiss pinched the bridge of her nose. "I cannot believe this."

Sarge: "Excellent! Let's get to work men, we've got a planet to fight! ...I mean save. Whatever."

Nora laughed, "I bet Sarge will be responsible for destroying the memory unit."

"It would not surprise me." Weiss huffed.

"It would surprise me, their storyline is relatively separate from the others." Blake commented.

Cut to the Freelancer backstory, where Team A is seen driving on the freeway. York is driving, Maine is riding shotgun and Carolina is manning the turret.

Carolina: "Team B report. Team B!"

Blake perked up, happy to see the shift to the freelancer arc.

Cut to Team B. Their car is flipped and on fire. Wyoming is wounded and being treated by C.T. while North takes cover behind the car and reports in as numerous police officers shoot at them

North Dakota: "Team B is down! We have wounded, and are taking fire."

"Are those police shooting at them?" Ruby asked.

"Sounds like it." Blake nodded.

"I thought they were a sanctioned military program? The insurrectionists sounded like an illegal military group." Weiss commented.

"I'm sure they have a lot of leeway." Blake shrugged. "Besides these could be officers of the insurrection."

"Seems like a flimsy explanation to me." Weiss frowned.

Carolina: "We'll be right there."

North Dakota: "Negative, get the package. Get it out of the city."

Carolina: "Roger that."

"They still need the briefcase to open the sarcophagus right?" Ruby asked.

Ren nodded, "If they can't brute force it open, I think that would mean whatever is inside it is alive."

Blake's eyes widened, "That makes sense, except.." Blake frowned. "With how they handled it, if anything was alive inside it I'm sure it would have made noise or have been injured."

York: "Reading Team B's tracker... okay, there he is I got him."

Carolina: "We'll cut 'em off at that overpass, go, go!"

"He should enter lockdown right? Whatever that is." Nora frowned.

"I'm sure the convoy is on high alert." Blake commented.

"They'd have to be, their entire building just fell to the ground." Weiss added.

"Their skyline has changed." Pyrrha added.

Cut to Tex, who is inside a building somewhere, soldiers pass her by.

Tex: "Come in, Mother of Invention."

"Necessity." Ren mumbled.

FILSS: "We read you Agent Texas. Go ahead."

Cut to the Mother of Invention, where the Director is seen on the bridge.

Tex: "FILSS, I need you to fire ordinance pod zero-four-zero-one to my position."

FILSS: "I am sorry, but I cannot verify the contents of that pod."

"She can't?" Weiss frowned.

"Must be something important." Blake leaned forward.

FILSS: "Protocol dictates that all-"

Director: "Just fire it, FILSS."

FILSS: "Acknowledged. Safety protocol override. Firing pod zero-four-zero-one."

"Do those numbers have any meaning?" Ruby asked.

Jaune shrugged, "It might be a reference to something, I think it's kind of cool that my locker number is on the side of the ship."

"It is? Did you remember to count that high?" Ruby laughed.

Jaune chuckled, "Yeah, me and that locker go way back." He grimaced.

"Cardin." Pyrrha growled, Nora made a leg breaking motion.

The pod is launched towards Tex. It lands and opens to reveal a motorcycle

Tex: "Hello there."

Yang's eyes widened, "Ohhh Tex just keeps getting better and better."

Weiss chuckled "She's kind of like you. Hot-headed, thinks with her fists-"

"An absolute badass uh-huh." Yang nodded. "Weiss that is the nicest thing you have ever said to me."

Weiss chuckled, "You turn every insult into a compliment."

"You make it too easy." Yang smirked. "Imagine if Tex punched me, using my semblance I could probably punch a hole in the CCT."

"You two are ignoring the best part, she has a rocket launcher too!" Nora picked up Magnhild, flashing the double barrels that were inspired by the rocket launcher on screen.

Tex approaches it. Cut to a group of Insurrectionists.

Guard 1: "Did you fucking hear that?"

Guard 2: "No man, no-"

Guard 1: "You didn- it was like-"

Tex crashes through the window above them and drives off.

"Tex's motorcycle looks badass." Yang commented. "But not better than mine, especially after her paint job."

Ruby smiled, "The purple looks amazing."

"I need to get a motorcycle like Tex, It would be so cool to ride around with a rocket launcher!" Nora shouted.

"Her motorcycle looks like half a mongoose." Ruby added.

Guard 1: "How 'bout that, did you hear that?"

Guard 2: "Yeah yeah, I heard it."

The guards chase after Tex. Cut to program official Rhee Sebiel, driving under an overpass just ahead of Tex. Team A is revealed to be watching him. As Rhee approaches them, Maine jumps on the hood of his car and prepares to stab him with the bayonet of his brute shot.

The episode cuts to black with the sound of slicing and an engine trying to start.

Ruby's breath caught. "He's acting like the Meta even before he became it."

"These moments foreshadow what he will eventually do." Blake winced.

Pyrrha grimaced, "The look of fear on that poor mans face." She shook her head.

"I promise I will not use Magnhild like he does." Nora swore.

Ruby nodded, "I know you won't Nora, I know."

"I can't imagine you being that cruel and heartless." Pyrrha grimaced.

"I know I'm full of heart." Nora forced a laugh, gesturing to her heart cut out.

"I can almost imagine a grin under that helmet." Blake closed her eyes.

"Ugh!" Yang shuddered, "The Meta is really creepy."

"Maine." Ren corrected half-heartedly.

Yang shrugged. "Eh, the line between Maine and Meta keeps getting blurred. If there ever was one, let's just talk about how much of an angel Tex looked like when she burst through the glass on b- on her motorcycle."

—Short Birds SS—

Qrow's chuckle rattled his throat, "Sarge is a real Ironwood, he should start taking notes."

"I'm sure he already does." Raven grinned.

The two looked at each other with smiles, before they each realized what they were doing.

"Dumbass."

"Bitch."

I love how Vale looks in season 1, so much more colorful and vibrant than in season 2. Might be different sections of Vale but still. Also "Dumb Cops" on Torchwicks sign is at the Docs. Where the Burnie and Joel investigators are.
