1st PERSON POV (SILENIUS)

Summer: So this job will be me stoping bullying, while ensuring that other students aren't breaking the rules and i'll be getting benefits while doing it

Ozpin: It won't just be you but yes. That's the gist of it.

Summer: I'm in

Ozpin look confused for a second.

Ozpin: Just like that?

Summer: Yep

As always she popped the p.

Ozpin: You aren't going to take a few minutes to think it over?

Summer: I don't need to. This is like the perfect job for me.

Ozpin: Still normally you'd think it would take some convincing on my part to get a student to voluntarily give up their idle time for something like this

Sil: I told you she was perfect for this

Summer: Hm?

Ozpin: Young Silenius over here was the one to recommend you to me

Summer comically gasped.

Summer: Out of everyone you could have choose you picked me , I'm honored

I deadpanned.

Sil: I know like 5 people here and I'm not doing this without someone I know

Ozpin: Anyways I'll send the details to both of you via scroll. You both may go to lunch now and thank you for your time

Sil/Summer: Yes Professor

Summer and I began to walk towards the cafeteria.

Summer: You wouldn't believe how boring class was today

Sil: It's history, what did you expect

Summer: Ok you have a point but that teacher has it out for me

Sil: You go on your scroll during class. Not exactly shocking

Summer: Yeah but at the end she called on me to answer a bunch of questions when she knew that I hadn't been paying attention. Luckily Qrow gave me all the answers

Sil: He did? Didn't know you two were that good of friends

Summer: That's kind of your fault for leaving me with him on the first day

I feigned surprise.

Sil: That's a weird way to say "Thank you Sil for helping me make friends"

This time Summer deadpanned.

Summer: Yeah you totally didn't just ditch me....

With sarcasm I responded.

Sil: I would never

The conversation grew silent before Summer spoke again.

Summer: You're still coming over right

Sil: After class yeah. You still have to tell me about your life before Beacon like you promised

Summer's eyes fell a little.

Sil: 'Maybe I shouldn't have worded it like that' How about this

Summer looked at me in confusion.

Summer: Hm?

Sil: I'll let you ask about me as well so you don't feel that weird telling me about yourself

Summer just stared at me for a second before smiling a bit.

Summer: You'll answer any question right?
