Weiss was staring at her mother. It was uncanny how she was not drunk.

Willow looked at her daughter and said, "So, Weiss. Can you tell me about your time at Beacon from the beginning? I want to know how you and the others came to be with Jaune."

Weiss nodded and started, "When I first arrived at Beacon, I was...what my friends would say, a bitch. And I agree, I was a massive bitch...I was partnered up with Ruby after making eye contact...When I jumped off the Nevermore, Jaune caught me, but I was not appreciative...

When Ruby became leader, I was devastated...When I spoke to Port, he told me I should be the best teammate I can be...Jaune asked me on a date, and I rejected him...We went on the field trip to Forever Fall to collect Red Sap...

Jaune asked me on a date, and I rejected him...My team and I went to Vale and saw a busted Dust shop...We met a Faunus stowaway...Blake and I argued...Found out Blake was a former Fang...Things blew out of proportion, and Blake left...My team went to find her but no luck...

Later in the docks, we found Blake fighting Torchwick...My team and I reconcile... Jaune asked me on a date, and I rejected him... Jaune asked me on a date, and I rejected him... Jaune asked me on a date, and I rejected him...

Willow was laughing at certain things she found funny. Jaune, the man that won her daughter's heart and a few others, was entirely not what she expected. She can see why now that her daughter fell for such a man. If only she had someone like that when she was younger.

Willow spoke, "You had quite the adventure at Beacon. You are chasing criminals, fighting giant robots, and falling in love while training to fight Grimm. I hope you will continue to have more of these amazing experiences you can cherish. Oum knows I wish I had those kinds of memories."

Weiss had a serious expression. She said, "Mom, can I ask you? Why have you never left Father? I can't imagine the hardship you are going through for us because of him."

Willow said with a smile, "It is because I love you, children, that I must endure this. If I was to divorce your father, I am sure that I would lose custody of you and Whitley. With all his connections, he would make it so I will never have a chance to visit you. If enduring this pain and suffering is what I need to make sure that I can protect you, then I will bear it!

Weiss looked at her mother with love, "There must be a way. I cannot let him continue harming you, Mom. I may have been indifferent before, but that was only because I never knew how much you truly loved me. Loved us. I refuse to believe that letting you endure this pain and suffering is the only way."

As if Oum answered her prayers, Jaune suddenly appeared before her. With surprise, Weiss said, "Jaune!"

Jaune was smiling. He was finally able to finish [Teleport]. He said to Weiss, "Weiss! I can't believe it worked! This is awesome!"

Weiss was confused. She asked, "What worked?"

Jaune leaned and whispered to her, "I made a [Teleport] spell."


Weiss raised an eyebrow. She whispered, "Really? It wasn't long since you started learning magic from that Ultimate Sorcery. Did you make a [Teleport] spell already?"

Willow watched the interaction between Jaune and Weiss. When she heard Weiss call him Jaune, she was immediately interested. She observed the man. He was exactly as her daughter mentioned. Even the sense of safety just being around him. It was nearly intoxicating.

Willow walked forward and said, "Weiss? Do you mind introducing me?"

Weiss nodded and said. "Yes, of course."
