Weeping Willow

When I'm beheaded at least I was wedded. And when I am buried at least I was married. I'll hide my behavior with wine as my savior. But, oh, what beautiful things I'll wear. What beautiful dresses and hair...

Whitley and Klein have moved to speak with Winter. That’s... fine. Winter doesn’t want to speak to her, she knows that. She’ll... check in, when things settle.

But... what is wrong with Winter? Why is she... why does she look like that? And where is Weiss? Not that she actually cares, but... part of her even wonders where Jacques is. Is he in the crowd with the “common rabble,” or... did he never make it out of his jail cell?

... for some reason, though, she asks a very different question.

“... what... happened?”

The dust has hardly settled. Weiss and her friends have congregated around the robot girl, and she’s content to leave them to it. Weiss and her friends can handle themselves. She’s sure Klein is still with the injured girl, she trusts him.

But Whitley...

“... are you alright, baby?” she asks softly, still a little out of breath as her aura flickers periodically over her body. It’s been so long since she’s used her semblance, it’s... more draining than it used to be. She doesn’t touch him, not yet, but her hand does reach out. He seems alright, but she has to be sure.
