The last thing you need to be doing is over-working yourself, Weiss.
[ A subtle tone of exasperation lines her voice, though it still holds a fair bit of concern as well. She understands the importance of wanting to distract yourself. Very much so. ]
Would today or tomorrow afternoon work best for you?
[ If this were any other time she might have possibly chastised her further for that, but opted only for a soft sigh. She'd drop it for now, but if it became a real problem then she'd address it properly. ]
Alright. Should you have any preference for where you'd like to go so we may talk, let me know.
[ Feeling like she's lost a bit of her usual bite is not the most exciting thing to accept, and while she's been healing up decently? It didn't change that some things were gone and she was accepting that reluctantly. ]
No.. public events, please. [ Like parties, movies, anything with larges numbers of people. The masquerade trauma kind of spent her on those for now. Which is unfortunate, considering she used to actually enjoy organizing things like that. ] Something quiet would be nice.
[ Considering what she'd caught wind of and what prompted her to actually message her little sister to start with? She never intended for anything public, thankfully. ]
Hm... would you be against coming to my apartment for a cup of tea, then? It's certainly quiet there and far from the public eye, and would just be the two of us.
[ It would end up being something like that time she'd last visited Weiss on Remnant, catching up with her and just having a one on one sisterly talk. Plus she wasn't fond on the idea of public locations right now either. ]
[ There's just the vaguest hint of her 'Schnee Company conversation' false cheer, but that's more because she wants Winter to know she's going to be happy to see her. It's hard to sound like that earnestly right now, even if she wants to. ]
[ That subtle note of false cheer had NOT gotten past her one bit, but she chose not to press it for now. Weiss has been through a lot and despite her more zealous attitude to want to protect her dear little sister, she now knew better that there was other ways to do it other than be completely overbearing about it. ]
Then do come by in about an hour and you will find my door unlocked. It will give you enough time to finish anything you desire before coming here.
[ She's already sent off the address in a text promptly, sparing no time in this so there was no need to discuss that much, really. Same with how she seems all business but there was that underlying tone of concern for her sister there that never completely left when she spoke with her. ]
Winter, don't leave your door unlocked. I'm fully capable of knocking.
[ The last thing she wants is her sister to leave her home unsecured. After that little note she hangs up though, and she'll be there in about an hour. Knocking because that door had better be locked you boob. ]
[ It didn't genuinely bother her in the least in leaving her door unlocked for a short time, seeing as if anyone unwelcome traipsed right in could just taste her blade and learn it wasn't wise to intrude on someone else's home. Either way she had taken her little sister's words to heart and left her door locked as it had been before, and by the time Weiss gets here?
She'd started a pot of tea and was nearly done when she heard that knock on the door. As expected, Weiss really did insist on doing just that. It was enough that she exhaled a careful sigh and rose from her chair to walk over to the door, the lock clicking as she unlocked and opened it promptly.
Her hair may still have been done up in that usual neat bun, but her bangs hung a little more prominently over her one eye to cover it. Dressed simply in a form-fitting white dress shirt and a neatly pressed pair of grey slacks; it wasn't anything nearly as formal as she usually wore but since she had no intention of leaving the house, it didn't call for anything dressed up beyond this. ]
As you wished, I kept my door locked, Weiss. [ A curt nod of her head in acknowledgment and the sure sign of a smile is evident as well now. See? The older sister CAN still take cues from the younger sometimes. ] Please, come in.
[ She's quick to move to the side to let her sister come in, still able to move with the same grace as ever but only slightly hindered from time to time with her still on the very tail end of healing from her injuries and dealing with her new depth perception. ]
[ She appreciates it, greatly. When she hears the lock turning before the door is opened it's a relief. Weiss knows it's probably just paranoia. Little more than a side-effect of her trauma. Her breath hitched just slightly when she saw Winter. It'd been a while- since the incident, hadn't it?
It was obvious Weiss just wanted to embrace her by the expression on her face, but she managed to hold herself back. A brief curtsy, then she headed into the apartment just far enough that she's out of the way so her sister can lead her around. Has she ever been here before..? Weiss looks around, trying to take in what her sister does with her living space when she isn't in the family's space. Weiss had made some changes with her design preference especially over time. She couldn't help but wonder if Winter had done the same. ]
