[Weiss is quick to open the door. She gives her friend a smile, but its strained, with the corners of her lips failing to convey the appropriate meaning.]
[She just shakes her head at that, because Weiss is right.]
It's kind of hard to share important things in those beginning ViViD levels, they're usually really rude and full of dangerous things. And weird things. Like that doll of me. That was weird.
[ANYWAY, FOCUS.]
But... you're my partner and you have to know and-- I guess I just...wanted to make sure it was okay? [Weiss says Ruby's love life is none of her business, but she's pretty sure the "partner" thing makes it her business, if only because "partner" is important.]
That doll was pretty weird. [Which is exactly why its now sitting in a box in her closet. What? She's not going to throw away her partner, even if its a tiny fluffy version.]
But I guess I'm taking a while to adjust to this place. You and Yang have lived a long time without me and I just...
[Ruby and Yang have carried on as best they could, but having Blake and Weiss around and then losing them and then being on their own for months--it's been weird.]
I mean, we're a team! And you guys are important, so--
I really missed you, Weiss. [There's a pause, and she shuffles in place, and:] Don't...leave again, okay? And--I won't get any more surprise boyfriends or anything like that! Deal?
[Ruby Rose will always care about Weiss Schnee, it's a law of the universe--but she relaxes at that, shoulders slumping, and then she's Ruby and flings her arms around Weiss for a hug.
Sorry Weiss.]
Ugh I missed you so much! Even the yelling! I even missed the yelling but don't start yelling but Weiiiiiiss!
[Oof! Oh, hey there Ruby, you sure are touching her face with your face. This will never be something that she will get used to, even if she does appreciate your enthusiasm.
Oh fine, whatever, it's been a long week. She's hugging back.]
I'm here, I'm here. I want to say "I missed you too" but from my perspective you never went anywhere.
[Awww hugs. Yeah, Ruby's just gonna whisper to herself--]
Friendship.
[This has worked out great for her, okay.]
That's okay though. Now that you're here, you can see how weird things get like. All the time. I'm not even surprised that we weren't really gone because things....just happen strangely here. Like. Time-wise. And memory-wise.
