In the kingdom of Vacuo, a 14-year-old Y/N is traveling with Qrow through a shopping district. Qrow decide to buy a small toolkit for Y/N in order for him to repair his weapons, particularly his dual-wielding pistols.
Qrow: "Here, kid. Gotta keep your weapons clean and repair."
Y/N: "Whoa! Thanks, Qrow."
Qrow: "Heh, no problem."
As they continue their walk, Y/N is looking around, astounded by this kingdom's interior which doesn't go unnoticed by his mentor.
Qrow: "Quite a sight to see, huh."
Y/N: "No kidding. I rarely visit this place with you... it feels different."
Qrow: "Well, it's not exactly prim and proper as the other kingdoms, but it's still standing."
Y/N: "I'm still surprised people can live out here. It's like one giant desert."
Qrow: "Hm, well the harsh environment wasn't the only thing the people of Vacuo had to face back then."
Y/N: "Like what?"
Qrow: "Years of human conflict, unrestricted mining from other kingdoms, and ecological disasters can make people realize that laying around and doing nothing won't solve anything."
Y/N: "Wow..." ("Explains why the people are more broad-minded than let's say... Mistral and Atlas, I suppose.")
Qrow: "Despite all of that, the people here tend to have a mutual respect for another."
Y/N: "Really now..."
Qrow: "It's an unspoken rule in Vacuo. If you can survive here, you're welcome here."
Y/N: "Speaking of rule, there has been a recent rise in crime here. Second-rate gangs, Rogue Huntsmen, and these so called 'human supremacists' that pop up recently." ("Though, that last part could be just rumors.")
Before he can respond, Qrow looks up at Shade Academy towering over the city not too far from where they're walking.
Qrow: "Well, with Shade Academy being the only real source of order in the kingdom, it's not all that surprising."
Y/N: "Uh-huh..."
Apparently, they are here because Qrow has some huntsman business with Headmaster Theodore as instructed by Ozpin himself. At least, that's what Qrow explain to Y/N once they left the shopping district. Though, Y/N isn't sure if his mission has anything to do with the crime rate rising in Vacuo. All he knows is that his mentor plans on meeting with the headmaster in Shade Academy. Unfortunately for Y/N, that means he has to stay at a nearby inn, specifically their room they rented to stay in.
Qrow: "Got your toolkit with you?"
Before replying to him, Y/N shows him the toolkit he bought him not too long ago.
Y/N: "Yep."
Qrow: "Good. Just stay put, kid, and don't get into any trouble. I'll be back in an hour or two."
Y/N: "I'll do that."
And with that, Qrow closes the door and exits the inn, making his way towards Shade Academy. Sitting at a circular table, Y/N is left to drink and eat food given to him by one of the inn workers. When he finishes that, Y/N starts tuning his pistols, Crimson and Violet while Grimm Slayer just lean on the wall. Of course, Y/N is having difficulties with adjusting his weapons. Especially since he uses them when he and Qrow had to deal with a bunch of Sulfur Fishes and Ravagers before arriving to Vacuo.
