Weiss I am distressed to hear that you are in a dream coma. Clearly I need to attack you with more summoned ursas and accelerate your training so this does not happen again.
I can't find Yang and she's not answering any of my messages. When did you last see her?
[ BOY THIS DAY IS JUST GETTING BETTER AND BETTER ]
[Weiss regrets being unable to send a letter, but if the truth were to be told, Winter vastly prefers this method. There is just too much that cannot be said with words alone, and though she was hurt, the video is a soothing balm that quiets much of her previous and quiet wounds.]
[Would that she'd sent that letter sooner, they could meet up in person. But Winter's just begun the first day of training for the new recruits, and she's in the thick of the Fayren wilderness. She can't leave, and she wouldn't dream of inviting Weiss to relax in the same hell into which she's pitching her tent.]
I accept your apology, on the sole condition that you accept mine.
[There's a rare softness in her smile as she closes her eyes and tips her head forward.]
It is good to hear from you again, sister.

[Honestly the best way to get through to her. She's far more pliable to points of logic than pleas of passion. It's just her nature, and why she so vehemently rejected anyone who exhibited signs of a temper.]
How terribly sentimental.
[She shakes her head as if gravely disappointed. But her smile is still there, so as not to provoke any further distress.]
It seems the affliction is contagious, however. I've missed you as well. I was not exaggerating when I confessed that you were the only one I trusted enough to carry on a perfectly congenial conversation.
Which reminds me...
[She looks thoughtful for a moment.]
Do you have any need for a wooden jewelry box?

[Yang's calling. When/if Weiss answers, Yang speaks in a hushed tone, as if she's in a library or somewhere else where quiet is demanded.]
Hey, just wanted to say I'm sorry for running off as soon as I woke up. I was kind of...you know.
[Freaking excited to see Mercury again after a year apart.]
So just checking in to see if you and Sun are okay. And to say thanks, for keeping me sane all that time. It meant a lot to me.

Good. Then I shall give you the one that found its way into my possession the next time we meet. A soldier has little need for baubles, let alone a box in which to contain them. The craftsmanship is quite remarkable, I think it will please you.
[Sorry, Dray.]
[Sorry, Dray.]
Hey, Weiss. Where are you? I have a anniversary gift for you.
Though I know it technically hasn't come up, though it kind of has. [Dream time makes things weird.]

It's not so much updated as it is we were in that dream place for a whole year. [They still have a few months off before its their legit anniversary, but he's just taking the time to give her one because of all the dream time.]
I can wait at home for you. I'll order some dinner too unless you had your heart set on something else. [When their real anniversary rolls around, they could do something big and proper.]

[Sun is just in the bedroom getting changed after taking a shower, so when he hears her voice, he comes out. On the kitchen counter there is a bag of food. He ordered out from a nearby burger place. He got them burgers and her fries and him onion rings.]
I'm here. [He says as he steps into the living room.] Someone arrived late.
I'm here. [He says as he steps into the living room.] Someone arrived late.
[Make a communal fry and onion ring pile is probably the smartest thing to do since Sun planned to take some of her fries anyway. He looks to the box and then takes it.]
So I'm assuming this is why you were a little late? [He says with a smile on his face. She had surprised him, honestly. He didn't expect her to get him anything. Even if it was last minute. He opens it up and peers inside. His smile grows even bigger.] I don't think these will be surviving the night.
[If it wouldn't ruin his dinner, he'd go ahead and devour them than before even touching their burgers.]

It's not like it's a bad gift. [Sun could never hate a fruit based gift. It's always the safest bet with him. He reaches into his pocket and takes out a rectangular jewelry box that obvious has a necklace in it and offers it to her.]
Here.
Here.
I think you’re to blame for any taste that I have in jewelry. [While he never saw Weiss wear a gaudy amount of it, she still does have it. It influences his taste a bit. He moves behind her and takes hold of the clasps and fastens them together.]
It’s actually a bit more than a necklace. [He says as he reaches around with one hand and grabs it. He slides his thumb on the back of it to find a small button and he presses it and legs go of it. Images are projected outward, just your basic run of the mill holograms. It’s pictures of him and Weiss, images that they’ve taken and shared with each other’s on their devices. It flashes through one picture of them just being dorky together, then another of them taking a cute little selfie together.
Then the next image isn’t so much a picture as it is text that says “Will you marry me?” It holds on it for a bit aaaand if she turns around, he’s already down on one knee holding another piece of jewelry.]

[Sun is grateful that it’s not an outright ‘No’. The fact that she wants to say yes is a big bonus. He reaches out to her hand with his free one and grabs it.]
Weiss. I love you without a doubt. I know, technically, we haven’t been together for a year yet. But..the time we spent in that dream was very real. We were very much us. Our time in this relationship together..our time dating.. .I just know for a fact that you are the woman I love. You’re the woman I want to be with for the rest of my life.
[He knows that with every fiber of his being.]I want to marry you. Even if it’s not today or tomorrow. I wouldn’t care if we got engaged and stayed engaged for the next few years, I just know I’m ready to take that step with you.
[He brings her hand to his lips and kisses it.] I don’t know why you won’t say yes. But you aren’t turning me down either, are you? I don't mind if you need time to think and make sure that this is what you want, I can't say that would be unexpected knowing the type of person you are.
