Austin Pov:
I walk through the courtyard with Jaune and Ruby walking on either side of me as we walked
Jaune: "It's just like he says motion sickness is much more of a problem than you would think"
Ruby: she giggles looking over at him "I'm sorry vomit boy was the first thing I could think of!"
We all have a short little laugh before a moment of silence comes over each of us before ruby breaks the silence
Ruby: "well I've got this thing" she pulls out Crescent Rose the scythe unfolding and slamming its blade into the ground
Jaune: "wait it's a scythe!?"
I chuckle lightly as ruby continues
Ruby: "she's a customizable high impact sniper rifle!"
Jaune looks over at her in confusion before I pat him on the shoulder
Austin: "it's also a gun"
Jaune nods in response as ruby looks at the two of us
Ruby: "So what've you got?"
Jaune: "Oh! I, uh..." he clumsily unsheathes his sword "I got this sword!"
Ruby: "Ooooohh!"
Jaune: "Yeah, and I've got a shield, too!" He grabs his Scabbard raising is up as it changes into a shield with the arc crest in the centre
Ruby: she reaches out and touches the shield "So, what do they do?"
Jaune: he fumbles around with his shield expanding and retracting it "The shield gets smaller, so when I get tired of carrying it, I can just... put it away..."
Ruby: "But... wouldn't it weigh the same?"
Jaune: "Yeah, it does..."
Ruby: she giggles "Well, I'm kind of a dork when it comes to weapons, sooo... I guess I did go a little overboard when designing it."
Jaune: "Wait - you made that?!"
Ruby: "Of course! All students at Signal forge their own weapons! Didn't you make yours?"
Jaune: "It's a hand-me-down. My great-great-grandfather used it to fight in the war."
Ruby: "Sounds more like a family heirloom to me!" She laughs "Well, I like it! Not many people have an appreciation for the classics these days."
Jaune: he sheaths his sword "Yeah, the classics..."
Ruby: she smirks looking over at me and shortly eyeing me up "so what you do have uhhh Austin right?"
I smirk lightly looking over at her
Austin: "well I've got quite a few but this is one of them if your so interested and no it's not also a gun" I hold my hand behind me back focusing my mind and imaging a weapon that I might be able to project and after a moment one blade comes to mind I feel some kind of energy flow through my arms as a mental image of the weapon begins to form from a green grids and after a moment I end up pulling it out before them the blade of the radiant hero

"Ruby: she smirks looking over at me and shortly eyeing me up "so what you do have uhhh Austin right?"I smirk lightly looking over at her Austin: "well I've got quite a few but this is one of them if your so interested and no it's not also a gun" ...

Austin: "this is Ragnell one of my many weapons"
Ruby's eyes light up looking the bastard sword up and down with a big smile on my face
Ruby: "wow it looks so cool I guess both you and Jaune are fans of the classics huh?"
I smile and nod in response.
The rest of the day goes rather standardly hearing Ozpin's speech and setting up a sleeping bag as I watch the Ruby and Yang I decide to go meet a certain ice queen. I walk over to her currently in her nightwear and sitting on her sleeping bag
Austin: "hey Lass mind if I set up here?"
She looks over at me surprised and with a slightly offended look
Weiss: "what did you just call me!?"
I flinch a little before sighing and responding with a sly smirk
Austin: "that's just how I talk besides can't exactly call someone by name when you don't know it?"
She scowls looking up at me
Weiss: "fine I'll humour you I am Weiss Schene and who might you be?"
Austin: "Austin Willgardner now I don't believe you answered my question Weiss"
She sighs and turns her head away
Weiss: "fine I suppose you may 'set up' next to me just don't cause any racket I enjoy my sleep"
I nod and set up my sleeping bag before laying down on top of it looking up at the ceiling as I take a deep breath And wait as I start to hear the girls talking before Weiss goes over and they all argue before returning to their respective bags
Weiss: "honestly the nerve of some people"
Austin: "let it go we've all got more important things to
She doesn't respond and simply goes to bed and I follow suit
