Hah!

[Weiss explodes from behind her door, grabbing Jaune's arm and delivering a strong left-hook towards his jaw.]

[beaconed]

[ With no time to react, Weiss manages to smack Jaune before he even knows what's going on. ]

Wei---aaaahhhwhatareyoudoing!!!!

[ Oh my god, he's going to have to fight this one, too. ]

[heiroglyphs]

[Weiss rears back for another punch before she realizes who she's fighting and the expression on his face. Her eyes widen, but that somehow fails to detract from the angry expression on her face.]

Jaune? What are you doi-- I could have killed you!

[She lets go of his arm, if only to direct her attention to her front door. Yep, that sure is a deadbolt smashed through her door frame.]

Ugh, I just had this replaced...

[beaconed]

[ Ow, that hurt, as evidenced by Jaune rubbing his jaw as he wonders if Weiss got hurt.

That's right, he's still worried about the person who just attacked him!! ]

Weiss, I-- I'm so sorry! I... I thought you'd be, like, tied up or something... or worse...

[heiroglyphs]

That stupid robot locked me in my closet and barricaded the door. One of my friends just let me out about an hour ago.

[And she had just gotten done putting her door back on the hinges.]

[beaconed]

[ To be entirely honest, he's not even listening or else he'd be wondering who this mystery friend is. No, he's just relieved to see the real Weiss, angry as she may be, enough to embrace her in a hug as he spins in a circle. ]

Weisss!!!

[heiroglyphs]

[Must resist urge to punch Jaune again.]

What's gotten into you anyway? You're a mess.

[beaconed]

[ Weiss may feel something against her as she's hugged. Something weird and pokey. AND NO, he's not that excited to see her.

In fact, Jaune steps back and reveals that it's Myrtenaster hanging off his belt, which he takes out and presents to its owner. ]

T-That... that's a long story...

[ It's not even that long. ]

[heiroglyphs]

[Jaune if that's what she thinks it is she's going to-- ohthankgod.]

Where did you get that...?

[Still she'll take it back and give it a quick inspection. Did you miss mama? Yes you did.]

[beaconed]

From you.

[ .... ]

Your evil twin... thing... o-okay, that's kinda harsh. She wasn't that bad, aside from... trying to murder me... and sealing it with a kiss... o-oh man.....

[ Jaune suddenly avoids eye contact for some reason. ]

[heiroglyphs]

Okay. Maybe I spent too much time in my closet, but I thought I just heard that my robot tried to kiss you.

[Clearly you meant to say "kill", right?]

[beaconed]

[ Jaune tries to keep quiet for approximately 0.7 seconds before he expands his shield and hides his face behind it. ]

OKAY if you have to know we kissed okay now stop asking me about it OKAY!!!

[heiroglyphs]

Ugh, that stupid robot. [She shakes her head.]

So she kissed you and tried to kill you. Where is she now?

[beaconed]

She's, uh... yeah, she's gone.........

[ Jaune not-so-subtly wipes a bit of the black oil off his face. ]

Y-Yeah.

[heiroglyphs]

[And Weiss' expression softens.]

You're... being serious right now.

[Please don't be serious right now.]
