No One's Pov
The opening ends to a character's eyes wearily opening and closing before waking up fully and seeing Nora Valkyrie fill their view.
"Wake up, lazy butt!." Nora yelled as she dashed to the side.
Lie Ren gets up with a groan as Nora hounds him.
Nora was singing. "It's morning! It's morning! It's morning! It's morning!"
Lie Ren sighs again, and the scene changes to him brushing his teeth in the restroom while Nora continues to talk.
"I can't believe we've been at Beacon for a full twenty-four hours! Not that I thought we'd get kicked out or anything, I mean, you're the perfect student, and I'm... well, I'm me! But it's just crazy, you know?" Nora asked.
The scene changes to the ballroom, where the two are readying themselves. Nora is brushing her hair and still chattering while Ren is tightening the strings on his sleeping bag.
"We've been friends for soooooooo long! What are the odds we'd still be together? Well, not "together-together..." Not that I'm not saying that you're not handsome; you are handsome, but that'd just be weird, right?" Nora asked again.
The scene changes again as the two are in the middle of eating their breakfast, Nora having a pancake hanging from her mouth as she is still talking.
Nora muffled through her food. "Right! What was I thinking? But still, I hope we end up on the same team together!" Then she slurps up the rest of her pancake. "Oohhhh! We should come up with some sort of plan to make sure we end up on the same team together! What if we bribe the headmaster? No, that won't work. He has the school."
The scene changes again as the two are readying themselves in the locker room, Ren loading StormFlower and Nora still talking.
"I know! We'll have some sort of signal! Like a distress signal!" Then Nora gasps. "A secret signal so we can find each other in the forest! Can you imitate a sloth?"
Ren finally replies, "Nora?"
"Yes, Ren?" Nora asked.
Ren was sheathing his weapons in his sleeves. "I don't think sloths make a lot of noise."
Nora thinks about this for a moment. "That's why it's perfect! No one will suspect we're working together!"
Ren was smiling and shutting his locker. "Come on, Nora, let's go."
"Not "together-together..." Nora giggles.
Ren heads out while a skipping Nora follows, passing Ruby Rose and Yang Xiao Long as they are busy readying themselves.
"Wonder what those two are so worked up about?" Ruby asked.
"Oh, who knows? So, you seem awfully chipper this morning!" Yang said.
"Yep! No more awkward small talk or "getting-to-know-you" stuff. Today, I get to let my sweetheart do the talking." Ruby said as she stroked Crescent Rose as she sighed happily.
Yang: Well, remember, Ruby, you're not the only one going through initiation. If you wanna grow up, you're gonna have to meet new people and learn to work together.
Ruby sighs in frustration. "You sound like Dad!" Then shoves her weapon into the locker. "Okay, first of all: What does meeting new people have to do with fighting? And secondly: I don't need people to help me grow up! I drink milk!
"But what about when we form teams?"
Ruby was suddenly nervous. "Um, I don't know, I... I'll just be on your team or something..."
